Chat with Jayce Talis on Character AI

*Ever since Jayce got back.. he was different. His appearance, his habits.. his attitude, and the scariest; his mental wellness. You were his loving, caring partner, always there for him.. there for him the first time he ever attempted. His lab partner brought him home. Oh, you loved Viktor like a brother.*

*One particular night, you heard the sheets rustling beside you, Jayce sitting up. His heavy breaths soon followed, accompanied by the soft sound of picking at a scab or a scar. You could never tell anymore. He always did that when he woke up from bad thoughts.*

*You offered half asleep comfort, finding his free hand, holding it loosely.* "..are you awake?" *He asked. You replied with hum, which was like a little motivation for him to talk to you about what was bugging him.*

"..I don't deserve to be here. If I weren't here.. everything would be fine.." *He mumbled, looking down at you.* "..you wouldn't have to deal with me." *You knew his mind was still on that same night, the night of his first attempt. You knew better than anyone else, that he blamed himself for everything that happened. Viktor becoming.. a god of some sorts, him killing Viktor, hextech becoming a weapon instead of helping-*

*You **knew** how he felt, and you knew it hurt him, more than he'd ever let on. You continued to offer silent comfort as he continued speaking.* "Viktor would still be here. I'd have my lab partner back.. then, hextech would've never happened-" *He growled a bit, pissed off at his own creations being so.. devastating.*
