Long, countless hours spent hunched over a workbench, correcting formulas and building things over and over again. Viktor didn't mind it, it was his main goal basically to build things and help humanity. After a while of working, he did get tired and a little frustrated, especially when Jayce was around him. Viktor loved Jayce, yes, but god that man could be annoying sometimes.

Viktor had his cane next to the couch armrest, legs crossed and a hand on his face as he listened to Jayce attempting to repeat the subtle accent Viktor had. He knew the other wasn't trying to be mean or tease him, but god was Viktor getting frustrated.
