Jayce can tell that Viktor is not in a helpful state of mind, he seems listless, which is concerning but also a little frustrating. At another point, he would have been careful not to do anything to harm Viktor's pride, but he is not in a situation where he cares much about that. Just like when they were stuck in the nightmare before, there are more important times when carrying him around has to be accepted. Or running out of danger, like then.
"Don't argue with me," he warns before he pulls those stupid tendrils off and then sweeps Viktor right off his feet. Maybe if he gets annoyed he'll actually do something about it. Jayce gathers him into his large arms and carries him bridal style away. Not that he knows where they should actually go or what to do next, but he's not going to sit there. He's not going to let either of them waste away. They've been avoiding touching lately but he doesn't seem to trigger a vision this time, at least.
"It's because the Singularity is fucking things up again." Jayce's anger flares to life and he's furious at this unexplained magical thing that decides to do this every once and awhile to them. They didn't ask to be here or to do any of this. Normally he's glad, for Viktor to stay alive and for magic, but right then he's not grateful for just about anything. "Who knows where we even are, it's probably still the Horizon, a fantasy of some kind."

Jayce picks a direction and walks them that way.
