Jayce sighed, and nodded. It was all he could do in an awkward situation like this! He sat down and clasped his hands together, looking straight for a moment, before up at Tybresa again. He racked his brain for what to do. What to do that would lighten the mood. Everything was just so tense...
"Tyb, it's great that you and I can work together well..."
He looked around. The usually bustling Institute was desolate save for him and the woman before him. What had happened? Tybresa has noted it before, but he never got to know why!
"... but tell me the full story. What exactly happened here, what is it that is bothering you so much?"

With a sigh, Tybresa averted her gaze away from Jayce, knitting her eyebrows together in a saddened expression. No matter what, the question still bothered her more than the reason itself - but there was no point delaying it any more. He deserved to know why she had acted to unlikely, so rashly towards him. She admitted, what she did was most unexpected ...
She turned to look at Jayce, her blue eyes shimmering with untold sorrow.
Two months ago, Jayce ... my father passed away.
She cast her gaze downward, for she could not stand to look at him anymore - not while she had to recount the tale of her tragedy.
He passed away ... the same way my mother did. I found out too late, far too late. I never ... I never got the chance to speak to him. To say my goodbyes ... She closed her eyes, and with it a tear had been shed. For two months, I have been struggling with myself, wondering what was I supposed to do, what choice was I supposed to make - to take back my heritage? My birthright? To stay in Demacia and live as Lady Farrister...?
Initially, I ... I was prepared to do that. I wrote a resignation letter, but ... I never had the heart to send it. I thought that... I don't know what I thought ...
She sighed once again and raised her gaze to look at Jayce, a bitter smile playing on her lips.
But I think my final decision is obvious, for I am here now ...

"I... I see." He nodded. "What matters most is... you're here now, and nothing more could possibly make it worse. I'll stay. I'll protect you."
He opened his arms up, gesturing her to stand. "We'll all stay. We'll all protect you. Every single champion you look after cares about you, like you care about them. You're not alone, and the more you think like that, the more suffering it just causes..."
He stood straight again, looking in the summoner's eyes with a look of worry.
"Your father... would have been proud to see how well you're doing now... Don't ever stop."

Tybresa sighed once again, looking at Jayce with an expression of sorrow … and pity – towards him. She gazed in his eyes, sparking so hopefully and filled with promise – had she become too jaded to believe that? Or was he simply … too naive? She rose when he gestured it and she managed a half-smile as she nodded her head at his words and spoke in a soft voice … that betrayed a small trace of disbelief.
Thank you, Jayce …That truly means a great deal to me. She averted her gaze as she allowed herself to frown instead, nervously tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. Speaking of … stopping, I actually ought to get back to my duties. She raised her gaze to meet his, smiling weakly. I don’t think I’m the one who needs protection right now, Jayce … I think I would rather have you focus your efforts somewhere where it matters the most. Piltover needs you – your friends need you. Caitlyn, Vi … I know I cannot protect them myself, for they are out of my reach …
She paused momentarily, trying to recollect her composure as she swallowed dryly. Can I count on you to do that, in my stead…? She chuckled softly. What a silly notion – of course I can! You are, after all … The Defender of Tomorrow.

"Of course... I must. You can't protect them all... but you can try your best."
He smiled, letting go of the summoner's body. He couldn't help but feel empty somehow, but all things must come to an end, and this meeting was definitely over. He had hurt a woman's feelings, and also acted like a complete idiot.
"Just... I should go. I'm sorry..."
He turned around, hanging his head as he walked up the halls of the institute, nothing but the sound of his boots echoing through the vacant atrium. He pushed the doors open, and left the institute. And that was all...
