Summary
After arriving just seconds too late to stop Jayce’s suicide, Viktor needs to confront his guilt and also to decide his next move regarding Hextech research.
As he delves into Jayce’s journals, he grows increasingly enamoured with both the science and the man behind it, and he begins to grieve someone he barely knew.
Meanwhile, strange additions in a mysterious handwriting appear in Viktor’s notes. Driven to paranoia by increasingly impossible phenomena, Viktor may be forced to face a supernatural explanation.Written for Jayvik Big Bang 2025

Summary
Piltover’s Defender of Tomorrow dies on Wednesday evening. By Thursday, the announcement hits the morning gazette, and it won’t leave the news cycle until well past the Sunday edition.
Zaun’s Machine Herald scoffs the first time he reads it, tossing the stained and torn paper that his apprentice brought down the conveyor behind his shoulder. He is rewiring his left arm again, trying to iron out why his sensors detect a microsecond’s delay between the synapses firing in his brain and the acknowledgement by his mechanical nerves.
“Natural causes,” he scoffs. “He is what? Sixty years old? Men that rich do not die that young.”

Summary
The rune spits Jayce out on hard rock. It’s dry and dusty under his hands and when he blinks awake, face-down, clothing soaked, alive against all odds, he actually can’t draw a breath. A drop of water hits his face. And then another. It’s raining, and he doesn’t know where he is, but he’s back in the fissure, he’s certain of it. A cruel ending for a wasted life. Jayce Talis, the Man of Progress, who thought at every turn he had the right idea, and failed in every way that ever mattered.
-
Thrown across the continent, but painfully alive, Jayce struggles to keep Viktor from falling into mental ruin, and himself from keeling over. He can still hold a hammer, so he does what he's always done: cling to hope, however foolish it may be.
