Coffee
I inspected a book Jayce had lying around about 'hextech'. I flipped through the pages walking over to Jayce who was sitting down. " This is pretty good but you see here.." I pointed at a rune symbol getting closer to Jayce " You drew it wrong, if you had used it with the others you'd probably create an explosion " He looked at the rune on the page " Mmm " Jayce replied mouth full with the muffins I had brought.
I picked up a nearby pen and redrew it, scribbling out the other one, there... no explosions. I watched as Viktor chewed on the joints of his hand. I scanned the room looking for something interesting, Oo papers..
" You two do a lot of calculating.." Yawning, I squinted looking at some notes left on the table " Jayce, why is your name on everything..??" "Mhm that's exactly what I thought" "You too? Viktor already called me egotistical " Jayce replied sounding defeated. " Don't worry big man I'll get you a glass of warm milk and a cookie for your sorrows " I cooed patting Jayce's shoulder
" But seriously what's got you all sad?" Jayce went silent for a few seconds, the only thing I could hear was chalk being dragged on the board Viktor was working on. " I'm just worried this won't work out, I mean we've already proven ourselves to the council?"
" ehh.. not quite, we still haven't been able to utilize it, we just floated because of it.." Viktor replied, clearing his throat. I chuckled " What is it now?" " You really just floated?? how'd— how'd you get down?? did you just— fall to the ground orr..??" Viktor was the first to reply " Mhm.. we turned it off and plummeted to our death"
" We actually just held onto bookshelves and moved down, then we turned it off" " I liked Viktor's retelling better" Jayce scoffed playfully, placing his pencil down and getting up from his chair. " I'm hungry, any leftovers?" He asked me while stretching " I mean you're the one with the paper bag on your desk? I should be asking you that "
"Oh" I saw Jayce rummage through the bag to no avail. " Aww, doesn't this place have a cafeteria?" " ehh.. yes but I don't think it's available right now " " Alrighty then.. I'll just head over to [ Cafe Name ] and get you guys something " " Could you get me a cookie and a coffee?"
" Jee you really took that warm milk and cookie thing to heart.." I said, squinting my eyes, " What about you Vik?" "mm.. Coffee" "Black with a little sugar?" " Of course " "What about you Jayce?" " Just a regular with a lot of milk " " Yum.. welp I'll see you later" I stepped out of the room, the sound of the door closing echoed through the halls, and so did my footsteps.
I rubbed my upper arms, I should start bringing a jacket, I should see if the cafeteria is closed or not. I enter the elevator, waiting for that familiar *ding*. It's on the first floor, according to Viktor it's unavailable and yet I see people inside? Eh whatever that's just a compliment on me and my mom's baking.

My coworker's covering me today and will probably do so for a long time now, since you know.. I'm working with some very important scientists. The smell of baked goods and coffee filled my nose, the cafe was almost empty except for the three people occupying it before me. I waved to my coworker and headed to the coffee machine.
It took about 10 minutes for the coffee to finish filtering, Viktor's coffee was easier to make with it being just sugar. For Jayce's I poured cream and some milk, I really don't want to overdo it like he wanted. I grab napkins for the coffee and a small bag to hold the cookie.
Ok now I feel like a delivery boy, I think Jayce's comment he made last week has finally gotten to me even more than it already has. This is making me tired. I wonder if a few sips of Jayce's coffee wouldn't hurt... wait I just got an idea hell yeah.
It would take a while till I got back to the academy and I don't have a pen on me, saliva could work..? But it would be weird and gross, never mind. Maybe I'll get ink on my finger and write it with my finger? I'm not sure if the magic would be able to transfer through the pen... or could it? I don't remember if I've tried it before.
The ink on finger would probably work best? Ugh I'll figure this out later. I shivered as I entered the Academy. Ah there she is!! I looked the receptionist in the eye and she just waved me off with her pen. It's nice how I don't have to actually talk to her now.
I walked past her and— wait " Uh do you have a pen I could use for a sec?" She looked at me and gave me her's. I pressed it against my pointer finger and quickly gave it back and went back to walking to the elevator. I wrote the runes for healing on the cup and with my pinky I wrote it in the coffee, burning it in the process. I wrote it only in Viktor's coffee of course. The coffee and cup glowed for a moment and slowly dulled down as the elevator stopped.
The doors opened and I was greeted with dull lighting and an empty hallway. I don't think I'll write anything on Jayce's, he's doing fine currently so less work for me.
Footsteps echoing through the halls as I got closer and closer to Viktor and Jayce's lab, I wouldn't be surprised if they could hear me come out of the elevator.I pushed the door open with my elbow " So did I—" Viktor was slumped over a chair and Jayce was standing near the chalkboard biting his nail. " Ah there you are " Jayce replied static as he turned to me speed walking towards me " These are for you " I said giving him his cookie and coffee " And I'm assuming the glowing one is for Viktor?" " Mhm, good observation skills, that's what happens when you mix coffee and one of those blue orbs " I walked over to Viktor and set it on his desk " Ah, for me..?" " Duh " I reply, letting out a dry laugh. I watched Viktor squint while inspecting the cup, he carefully took a sip and I saw his posture fix itself. " I added two runes just in case " I said tilting my head to my side.
" Mm.. I'm glad " " How come I didn't get any runes on mine?" " You should have acted more tired "
Jayce is having more appearances what a surprise!!! :0000!!!!
