‘ nothing is easy, but you don’t have to make it so hard. ’
while those words remained true, jhin took it upon himself to aid the other in every manner he could. he wanted it all to be... perfect for him, that was all he wanted, and if he couldn’t fulfill such a simple task for the ex-defender ? what good was he ? jhin thought to himself, the static of the male’s voice made it hard to lose himself in his thoughts. there’s a heavy sigh that leaves the virtuoso and he doesn’t allow himself to look at the eyes of the augmented male, those red eyes were unfamiliar, but they were of the male that after so many years, have come to adore.
so he’d risk a look, he’d take a gander. crimson meeting brilliant rubies, jhin could feel the twinge in his heart as the sense of self-loathing sets in. the man was completely and utterly useless to the other’s situation, he couldn’t touch him without the possibility of hurting him. couldn’t claim jayce’s lips with his own, even for a moment to try and stop the toxic form of blame hits him. but he gently graces the other’s hands with gentle digits.
‘ but i want everything perfect for you. so you don’t have to suffer more than you have---------- ‘
‘ jayce, i don’t want that, ‘ he wants to add. but words fall short from the virtuoso and he lets out a soft sigh before his eyes are looking back to the false ones before him.
‘ you deserve peace, jayce. not this. ‘
