Serious question.
Is Viktor Older, Younger or Same Age as Jayce
Older
Younger
Same Age
In case it's not confirmed, I wanna read anyone's takes about it.
Personally I see Viktor as someone older than Jayce. I've know people I thought they were in their 20s and they were 15, so, Jayce could appear older than Vik. Second is that Jayce being younger than Viktor and already achieving or having enough support than Viktor in his whole lifetime would add to the angst and sense of going nowhere for Viktor. The whole "How come this person is younger than me and they already have it all I couldn't even dream of?" Sense (like seeing 12-13 artists with tremendous art styles and following while you've been drawing all your life and barely got somewhere). Still, 1-2 years older than Jayce, not a huge age gap but still enough to make them not be the same age.
Same age would be what I'm currently experiencing with some friends. Seeing someone the same age as you achieving all, having it all, and then there's you. I think this is the less likely one unless Viktor and Jayce studied different careers, explaining why they never met or saw each other before.
Younger Viktor would be the Looking up to someone who's already achieved something, and he's running out of time to get to be something or someone before that age arrives. Like Tick Tick Boom with Jonathan was rushing to do something before he was 30. Also being younger than Jayce with his disease means he might never even get a chance to achieve that.
All of my thoughts are aiming for the internal struggle Viktor might have, all of them comparing to what Jayce has done at his 24- S1 Age and Viktor's in those episodes. All the ages have a way of comparing, either the "I've lost time", "I'm losing time" and "I'm running out of time", for someone like him.
Maybe I'm just projecting, but, aren't Headcanons/Theories either self projections or ways to discover/develop interesting theories and possibilities?
