    Summary

    Jayce is kidnapped. Viktor will stop at nothing to find him. Even as they are separated, the ghosts of the past, present, and the future haunt them.

    Viktor had never been late before. Jayce only arrived late once or twice, always after a particularly strenuous function where he’d gotten a little too drunk. Panting and sweaty, Viktor burst into the lab, the door already unlocked.

    “Jayce, I am so sorry! I—” His voice died in his throat when he realized he was alone. 

    Their desks were a mess. Drawers left pulled out, papers scattered over the floor, ink spilled over blueprints. 

    “Jayce?”

    Summary

    He stares longingly at Viktor, the soft curve of hair around his ear, the twitch of his brow as he works through his confusion of Jayce knowing his name. But of course Jayce does. Knows his name. Knows how long he can sit before he's too stiff to walk. Knows his entire list of dreams to stop suffering of others- all of it blindsided because Jayce’s obsession with the arcane came and ruined everything good in him.

    “How do you-”

    “I’m sorry.” Jayce isn’t ashamed that his voice breaks, his body shaking with all the hurt of a different timeline, “I never meant- I only wanted to save you.”

     

    Post-Canon Fix it Timeline- Where Jayce can't let go how badly he messed up, Viktor needs a few reasons to break his cycle of withdrawing from others, and they both pretend they aren't the dumbest men in all of Piltover and Zaun combined.

    Summary

    He knew his partner was talking, maybe saying something important but Viktor wasn't listening.

    Because Jayce smelled like the oranges the larger man used to leave on his desk and insisted he eat.

    Because Jayce was warm.

    Because Jayce was alive.

    Because Jayce was-

    Because Jayce was starting to hyperventilate.

    OR: Viktor never expected to survive the arcane, let alone be forced to confront his relationship with Jayce after everything they’ve done. But fate, as always, has other plans.

    Summary

    “Jayce.” It’s a demand, sharp like the crack of lightning and poignant with the rumble of thunder.

    “Viktor.” It’s a prayer, whispered to the stars and beckoning Viktor into its orbit.

    “Oh god. Viktor,” Jayce breathes and Viktor...Viktor is lost. His hands fist in the fabric of Jayce’s shirt and he can feel the rise and fall of Jayce’s chest, can hear the pounding of his heart beating a warsong against his ribs. “You’re...we’re...”

    Alive. By some sick trick of fate.

    -

    A snippet where Viktor and Jayce awake alive after their confrontation in the astral plane. Despite the enormity of what has happened, they at least have one another, and start the slow process of facing what they've done.

    The start of a longer series of works exploring their (eventually romantic) relationship in a post-canon world.
