jayce had been newly appointed a councilor and heimerdinger discharged soon after on the front of "well-earned retirement". all of this pressure was weighing heavy on jayce, you and viktor could both see it. he was desperately clawing to some semblance of control as the undercity became more unruly by the day. now he was mulling over the idea of creating weapons with hextech. the thing you all created to bring peace, for a world people would want to live in.

you stood up abruptly from your chair in the lab, looking to viktor

"i need to speak to him" you strode out of the room without another word, on a rampage, stride unwavering.

he stood in the courtyard speaking to a group of enforcers, papers in hand, seemingly about something important. you stood in his line of vision, arms crossed. jayce looked up at you, expression blank, and the other enforcers turned to look at you too, confused with your sudden arrival. you turned to the enforcers, expression ever so sweet.

"i couldn't borrow councilor talis for a moment, could i gents?"

the enforcers gave each other confused looks as they nodded and began to retreat, looking eager to avoid any conflict. jayce stayed in place, looking like a deer caught in the headlights, shifting on his feet awkwardly, as he watched the men walk away.
