It is arrogance to think that my life is somehow worth more than all of those guards.
[And all of the destruction that is surely to come, on top of this. Viktor knows it's not a sensible thing to say, but he's always been adamant about his convictions. He should have known better than to think he could build the Hexcore without the government's knowledge. Even his safeguards weren't enough--they puzzled it out, regardless.
He thinks of his other self, Jayce's version, the one that gave up. If something like this happened to him. The pain and guilt certainly feels great enough.
Viktor ducks his forehead into the curve of Kyle's neck, as if that's going to help him will all of this away. He supposes he should be glad, that he doesn't seem angry at Viktor, only on his behalf, but all he wants to do is apologize. To make it right, somehow, even if it's already impossible.]
