He says, like Jayce hasn't already planned it all out. Viktor is sure of that, if the accumulation of various novels and books in their apartment is any indication. For now, however, he's not going to admit that he'll be exactly as Jayce describes, partially because that would be admitting Jayce is right, but mostly because he's still nervous about looking past the procedure. They'll work about his recovery once he's in recovery. They have to get there, first.
Having received permission to stop for the night, however, Viktor makes some room for Jayce to join him on the bed, closing his eyes against the familiar hands that run through his hair and caress his face.
"You tell me all the time. If you aren't telling me, you're showing me." Like right now--and not that he's complaining. Viktor lingers, not saying anything else, as if he's well aware that if he does, it's going to shatter this fragile moment of comfort. He reaches for Jayce's hand. "We should talk."
