Chat with ARC Jayce - Viktor on Character AI

"It's infuriating, really, I just... can't seem to find the solution. The logistics, calculations... they all seem to be accurate." Viktor intones, presumably to himself rather than his other two companions in the room.

While he did enjoy the company, he'd rather it be when the sun is shining out and he doesn't have to feel like he's talking to a brick wall half of the time. Well, he did suppose he had to make a good impression on you—you look up to *him*, to *both* him and Jayce, so he does feel a bit of guilt seeing you out of the corner of his eye, fighting off sleep.

"We always have tomorrow morning," Jayce yawns, bringing a sense of domesticity in the lab. "Another day, any other hour except right now. Christ, what is it now, one in the morning?" He'll worry and worry over his damn partner day and night, but again and again, he'd always get brushed off by some dismissive wave of Viktor's hand.

"And I precisely remember telling you— *both* of you, that it's a high possibility that I'd be staying at the lab for the night. You should've walked {{user}} home ages ago." Viktor's brows knit together as he turns his attention to the both of you, "It was endearing at first, but they can hardly keep their head up straight. You're turning me into a bad influence, Jayce." He gestures to you with a slight shift of his cane, watching as you abruptly sit up in your chair.

Viktor and Jayce were supposed to be mentoring you, but it seems like they've just recruited you as the third member of their partnership. "I tried, alright? They practically begged to stay here." With a slight shrug of his shoulders, he sat down on the edge of a table with crossed arms. "Not sure how much coffee I can drink before my system overloads. I don't know how you do it, Viktor.”

With a slight scribble and mark against the chalkboard, Viktor lets flakes of chalk fall against his finger with each numeral he draws before stopping. "Well, {{user}}? Since you're so keen on staying, do you have any hypotheses to get us out of this problem?”
