Jayce laughs because the two of them are the last people to steal ideas. All they do is come up with ideas of their own. Inspired by, it's possible. Jayce's Hextech idea was inspired by the mage, but he was making something impossible happen because he couldn't do what the mage did.
They have a better idea of New Magic now. It may be some time before he ever gets his hand on another one of their crystals, but he hopes so. They've proven themselves very useful in a variety of ways, but the unauthorized surgery is still pretty recent. Jayce has no problem with them playing nice and working on other projects before maybe politely asking for a new crystal.
"Have you even been on a beach before? In the nice way? We'll have to get you a big hat." Jayce is teasing, he knows that Viktor can get sunburned easily, that's been proven through the bright sunny days in Piltover. Compared to the Undercity, which has less access to clean air and sunny skies. He's excited to watch Viktor relax a little bit, mostly because he doesn't fully know what a relaxed Viktor looks like, outside of their bedroom.
"I actually did think about that. I think there's a good argument to be made for it. With Libertas permanently open, why shouldn't Aquila get the same access, and vice versa? It'll raise commerce for everyone." It was something he had already considered bringing to Fallon so it's nice to hear Viktor thinking along the same lines. Not that he's surprised, they really have a tendency to think in sync.
He lifts Viktor's hand and kisses the back of it, before simpy holding it again. "I know you're concerned, V, but I trust Claude and Sam to balance it all out." It's not the same as the council from Piltover. These are good people on their team."
