[Viktor wonders if she might like the slightly new Lucien, but he can't say.]
You don't know that. Not until you try. And even if she does... I'll be here.
[He is not a stand-in for a sister, for family, but he is here to return to if it doesn't work out. Lucien might be a bad influence as an uncle, though.]
...I'm going to need several bodies to keep up with you, I think.
[He smiles at the joke, but it's a little weak at the edges.]
I'm not going to be around forever, you know. [JUST... mentioning it, not to rain on his parade.] You probably live a lot longer than me, right? We do get old pretty fast.
[Well, like, fifty or sixty years is a long time actually, but it is faster for people who live a lot longer. This isn't even touching the fact he only had about one left before he had so many options of fixing it.]
I know you mentioned-- the bomb and such, but if could go back-- I'd obviously go with you, if you wanted to.
[ HIS CITY HAS SO MANY PROBLEMS ......... but he might want to see it. ]
I'm not an elf or a gnome or something. [ me shaking in five different lore books saying six different things. ig tieflings can live from anywhere from "a few years longer than humans" to 150 which is a terrifyingly large range. lucien himself has never once thought about it because he thought he'd just die in a ditch somewhere after losing a fight. ] Of course it's okay. Just ... stick around as long as possible. And I will too.
[Runeterra has SO MANY problems, and a lot of them are in Piltover and Zaun.]
We'll figure it out together.
[They are still kind of lunatics, so who is to say they won't fall into a pit of immortality together. It can happen. They're becoming vagabonds, there is no way Lucien won't get them into MORE ancient, terrible artifacts and ruins.]
I don't mind showing you where I'm from... If you wanted. I don't have to go back, but... I wouldn't mind seeing... at least once.
Perhaps I would have something to help Zaun with by then.
[ lucien won't get them into ancient terrible artifacts? lucien will be solely at fault? this is definitely a situation where they will both be causing problems and it might be necessary for this game to have world hop because they are going to destroy at least a few of them. ]
If I'm dragging you into my mess, only fair to go see yours.
[DON'T JUST ASSIGN THEM WORLD DESTROYERS!!! OOOOOOOO, HATE IT HERE! WHO RELEASED THE LUNATICS OUT INTO THE COSMIC SEA?!?!??! STOP THEM! TAKE THEM OUT!]
You better be careful, or I'll hold you to that.
[He's teasing. He'll drag Lucien to Runeterra when Lucien gets tired of Exandria. Then again, they are... sort of similar in a lot of ways which is hilarious. It'd be jumping from one shithole to another.]
[ do you think about how between the two of them they have 20 million dollars, two wishes and unlimited world hops? they're going to be unstoppable supervillains I'm so sorry to say this.
and yeah runeterra and exandria are sooooo similar down to a lot of the fucked up problems they have. blow them both up. who cares anymore. ]

Are you sure that's okay...?
