Jayce had to separate from Viktor once they arrived because the reality is he is far more helpful in the hospital itself and doing medic aspects than handing out supplies or repairs himself. The skill that he learned to help Viktor can now be used to help many others, and he kisses his love before leaving. Neither of them care that it's in public. This is the sort of situation that calls for occasional public affection.
When he finally finds his way back to Viktor, he is not looking great himself. He's covered in sweat, dust, grime, blood (not his), and exhausted. His small satchel is almost entirely depleted (it's bigger on the inside) of medical supplies he handed out. He's been carrying a crowbar and shovel on his back like others do a weapon but those were given too. He's been at the hospital, the shelters, walking around the city to help with his brawn and his medic skills pull people out of buildings. He was called to an emergency to save Dean's life.
His magical energy is not fully depleted but it's not at its strongest, and he has used his normal medical skills whenever possible, but he is worn out. His strength and energy has really been utilized without rest but even Jayce Talis has a burn out point. It doesn't help that he is too soft for war and he had to keep it together in the face of death and despair. The emotional wearing out is serious too.
The medics tell him to go take a break. He can come back and do more later, but everyone needs to keep themselves alive if they're going to help others. Jayce hears break and thinks the only reason to do one is to find Viktor, so he goes to do that. At first he can't, which scares him, but it's because Viktor has found a quiet space to sit and no one saw where he went. Jayce eventually spots him, he has Viktor radar to his very core, and rushes over to him.
Jayce kneels in front of him, brushing dirty fingers through his hair gently. "Hello love." Worried eyes brush over his face. "Can I?" He places a hand on his chest but waits for Viktor's consent.
