"Oh, great idea. Send you genius assistant to confiscate work of another genius. Flawless plan, what could possibly go wrong."
Kell's opinion about Heimerdinger's choices, and his character, is not exactly flattering. He might have never met Jayce's mentor, but saints, did he ever know a person more out of touch with reality. So his sarcasm is nothing to be surprised about.
"But You found Viktor, so it turned out good for you. If a bit stressful in the process."
It's as far as the levity can carry him. There are things you just shouldn't joke about. Kell reaches to take Jayce's hand and squeeze it. His expression turns focused and serious.
"You will be fine," he declares. "You will get through this. I know it. You two are the smartest people I've ever met. You had dealt with risky situations before. You can do this again."
Kell has no idea if his words will help. They sure are wishful thinking. Even if very determined wishful thinking. As if he could wrangle the world into compliance by sheer force of his conviction. But he needs Jayce to hear that someone believes in their plan without doubt. That it will work, because it must work. Anything less than that is simply unacceptable.
