[Viktor keeps trying to meet his eyes, frustrated by how it feels like Kyle is pledging himself. If apotheosis is what truly awaits them, here, then there is no reason for subservience. He suddenly wonders if being so open about his dream was a mistake, even if he knows there was no real way to hide it.]

I'll come back to this place, someday.

[Or, insert himself back into this particular timeline form the moment he "left" it--that might be a more apt description. He owes it to the Undercity, after all.]

It is not your duty to accompany me, or to act as my protector. [He still believes that to be reserved for John, and now sees where he might have misstepped, showing Kyle all of this. Viktor seems slightly more desperate now, to snap him out of this fervor, to undo all of these new revelations and return to the bedroom above the workshop. He smooths a hand through his hair.

This next part seems difficult to say--he's not even sure if it's the right thing to say.]

But I may want to journey to other places, before returning home, and I--might like to do it with you.
