Mel takes a deep breath. “I don’t think you understand how precarious his situation is right now. He is the most hated man in Piltover. Most do not want to see him recovered; they want to see him hanged.”

Delaying the Inevitable by akirakiraki
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)

Summary
Viktor extends his hand, not to harm, but as a welcoming gesture. As if to ask Jayce to take it.
"I wish to show you the limits of your flesh. The feebleness of all that you experience. To drive my way into you and control your senses, bodily. So that when we are one, when you join me in the vast sea of consciousness, I can pry it from your memories - our memories - and show you the strength of what awaits you by contrast."
Jayce squints, more confused than accusatory.
“You want to torture me?”
"Worse."
--
Before Jayce joins the Glorious Evolution, Viktor offers him an ultimatum. Jayce accepts, hoping to delay the inevitable.
Not for any other reason.

After being joined and sucked into the hexcore anomaly, Viktor and Jayce wake up in a different universe, in their normal, human bodies.

Summary
“We can rest now, Viktor.” Jayce grabs his partner’s face, presses their foreheads together as relief washes over him like a tidal wave. It’s over. “We can finally, finally rest.”
The words are hardly out of his mouth before he is gasping in surprise, Viktor’s hand suddenly behind his neck, his lips pressed into Jayce’s own. Jayce’s eyes fly open for only a moment- a single moment for the shock to wash over him, for the fire in his core to become a blaze-
And then he’s responding in kind, his eyes sliding shut as he pulls Viktor into him, his mouth parting in invitation for the one person who’s never needed such formalities, who has always held the key, if only he’d ever dared to use it.
or: Jayce and Viktor’s existence continues, somewhere out in the cosmos

Distinguished Innovators by Avelera for AnonymousSong
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
19 Nov 2024
Tags
Summary
It is the early years of Jayce and Viktor's scientific partnership, and the Distinguished Innovators competition is only three days away. That is, if they can get all the work done for it in time when Jayce is exhausted, overworked, and at risk of burning out entirely before they even make it there.
So when Jayce jokingly asks Viktor to take control and tell him what to do, in the hopes that it will help Jayce relax and get some much needed sleep before the competition, he was not expecting Viktor to so readily oblige. Nor was he expecting what happened after.

Summary
The rocket strikes through the heart. Reality collapses in less than five seconds.
Jayce rebuilds Viktor, little by little, piece by piece.
And if his partner comes back from the dead a little different, well... what's not to love? Jayce is a quick study. He can adjust himself into a suitable form. He pledged himself to this task a dozen years ago; he's in it for the long haul.
*
To put it bluntly: this is the one where Dr. Frankenstein runs away with his bride.
( Jayce follows Viktor down to the depths of Zaun, and amid the riots and war-banners, everything changes. )

Summary
“The sun is not credited enough for the moon’s allure, for that beauty awes purely due to the sun’s reflecting gaze,” Al-Haitham says, his eyes locking onto Kaveh, devastatingly so.
Somehow, time seemed to have frozen.
Kaveh snorts, “What poetry book did you get that one from?” He tries his best not to sound too hesitant.
Al-Haitham shakes his head, “One of my works of prose, what do you think?”
Kaveh thinks he should run his fingers through his junior’s silvery hair and kiss him passionately while the night is young. Kaveh thinks he wants to hear a different kind of prose coming from his mouth, a harmonious one, equally beautiful— though perhaps not quite as coherent. Obviously, Al-Haitham can’t know that.
Ever the romantic, Kaveh seems to find it harder by the day to keep his affection for a certain Scribe at bay.

Summary
"Slowly, the revolver drifts from his forehead. The cool metal barrel grazes over his neck gentle like a caress, down through the swell of his chest and tugs on the button to his dress shirt before slipping over the material."
Wolfwood makes a flippant remark, and Vash pushes him to the edge.

Summary
Vash kisses him and it’s like dying. Not the pain of it, but the certainty. Like this was inevitable, despite the odds, despite the vastness of the universe, the coil of time, the fact that Vash is a myth long forgotten and Wolfwood is just one human among millions scattered through the stars. Vash threads his fingers through Wolfwood’s coarse hair, tugs him even closer. Pours the past five centuries of grief into the slide of their lips, licking into the heat of Wolfwood’s mouth, swallowing down the salt of communion wafers and the bitter aftertaste of wine. A mouthful of holiness for the most damned man in the universe.
***
Five hundred years after the end of the world, Wolfwood finds him.

Relax,” the intruder says. “It’s just me.”
Ed gets a better look, and sees a black ponytail and a sharp jaw, then looks away again, cheeks hot as he sits back down and starts hunting for another rock to throw. “Yeah,” he says. “Which you is that, exactly?”
“Don’t be a dick,” he answers, and sits down next to him, cross-legged and casual, starting to sift around in the sand for his own stone. Ed makes an educated guess.
“Ling?” he asks. It comes out quieter than he’d meant it, more hopeful. Ling smiles in that sun-bright way he has, and Ed’s heart stutters. Stupid, stupid.

“I feel like I’ve told you this before,” Satoru sighs eventually, still refusing to meet Suguru’s eyes. “I don’t— trust other people to touch me.”
Suguru lifts an eyebrow. “You don’t trust me?”
(or: Suguru just wants to touch Satoru without the barrier. Despite not allowing himself to be touched in years, Satoru lets him.)

“Wait.” Sethos grabbed Wanderer’s sleeve before the other could get away. “One thing before you go.” He stood, holding onto Wanderer’s forearm for support as he pulled himself upright. When Sethos let his hand linger, neither mentioned it.
“Speak.”
Gathering his courage, Sethos fixed his attention on Wanderer. “I like you,” he said. “And I would like to see you again.”
Wanderer raised an eyebrow. “You will.”
“Romantically,” Sethos clarified.
