    Summary

    “What the hell is that?”

    “It’s my baby.” She proudly declared.

    “It’s a mutt.”

    “I know!” She exclaimed gleefully, cooing at the ratty thing like it was the best news in the world. “His name’s Mooneyes.”

    Summary

    “I swear the reservation said two beds.”

    Ekko and Jinx stood side-by-side in the entryway to their hotel room, frozen as they took in the single king-sized bed. To add insult to Ekko’s mortifying injury, rose petals sat arranged in a heart in the middle of the mattress, and he was pretty sure that was a bottle of champagne in an ice bucket with two glasses on the desk in the back corner.

    She hummed, and Ekko couldn’t read the tone. Somewhere between surprise and dissatisfaction.

    “I’m sure,” she said slowly.

    ----------------------------------------

    Ekko and Jinx both use physical touch as their primary love language, but they do so in drastically different ways. And it's driving Ekko insane.

    Summary

    And rationally, she understands she should pay it no mind and give him the cold shoulder if he tries to proposition her again. Unfortunately, rationality tends to fly out the window when Ekko gets a little too close to her.

    Summary

    Slowly, she turned to look at him. “They’re engaged.”

    “Huh,” Ekko muttered. “Didn’t take Vi as the married type.”

    “Me neither." Her voice was a mere lull. “But people…they change. They go.”

    --

    Jinx and Ekko are childhood best friends and roommates who share a complicated history — Jinx struggles with fear of abandonment while Ekko clings to a savior complex he can't always fulfil.

    Isha is a foster kid in need of a home.

    Summary

    He hates her as much as she loves him, for nothing good ever happened to people who loved her back. But he cares, and that's different because people who hate you but also care will not forget, because they will forget a kindness but not a curse. People remember curses, remember misfortune if only to avoid it, and she's enough of a sin to be unforgivable.
    He cares with his arms. His mouth licks and bites, for he, too, wants to be remembered. His fingers bruise flowers she likes to trace, he bruises the hate and the kindness she so craves. But his arms love, with warmth and security, with the knowledge that falling leaves a place to land. His arms hold her like she's something precious.

    Summary

    “What are you doing?” Jinx yells, her voice suddenly coming alive. Panic and confusion war in her eyes as she twists to look at him, the wind stealing her voice as soon as it escapes her mouth. “This was only supposed to be me!”

    “Yeah, well,” Ekko shouts back, heart in his throat. “I couldn’t let you leave me again.”

    He reaches for the pull string one more time as the floor rises up faster and faster. He grips onto her with all of his strength, and prays that the anomaly will have enough juice to save them both. As he finally pulls he doesn’t notice the crack running up the side of the glass, or the ominous tick as his stopwatch ticks past the red line he’d drawn with one of Powder’s oil crayons.

    Pull. Reverse.

    OR

    Ekko accidentally brings him and Jinx back to before it all began. Now, they have to struggle to fix the mistakes of the past while figuring out how to heal. But, hey, at least they're together.

    Summary

    "Like a twisted remake of the end of their last fight, Ekko steps in just as Jinx pulls the pin of a bomb – a more powerful, deadlier version of the bomb she’d used then to try and blow both of them up. He sees it happen nearly in slow-motion; her lonely silhouette in the middle of the fan blade-bridge, hair chopped short, head bowed; ripping herself to shreds before his eyes in a flash of bright blue and pink light. His hand yanks the Z-drive handle before he can even gasp, and green light flares out of it, undoing the pink and blue; Jinx’s pallid skin knits itself back together, the pin returns to the bomb and her dark Shimmer-pink eyes open back up, finger about to pull."

     

    Eventual smut, lots of angst, hurt/comfort, and two traumatised young adults trying to figure out if and how they can make their way back to each other.

    Summary

    What is Jinx scared of, you might ask? The chewed holes which are obvious signs of a rat infestation? The warnings from their new landlord that they should keep the toilet lid shut in case of cockroaches? Or maybe the array of loud and extremely suspicious sounds at night?

    Nope. Not even close. Jinx was born and raised in Zaun, then spent the last four years of her life in a college dormitory the size of a peanut. She could deal with a shabby, cheap first apartment. Especially when she’s still trying to find a job that she actually studied for.

    But moving in with Ekko fucking terrifies her.

    In which Jinx and Ekko move in together and she feels very calm and normal about the ordeal.

    Summary

    When they were kids they shared her bed at sleepovers. Ekko would sleep on one end and she’d sleep on the other. She would hog the blanket, talk in her sleep, and kick him in the stomach everytime she rolled over, but he never said anything about it, not even when it kept him awake all night.

    The light here is different to how it was then. On her face it cuts like glass into her mouth and cheeks. It gnarls her knuckles into knots. It turns her into someone else.

    Ekko, suddenly, is no longer nine years old and shrieking everytime she presses her cold feet again his calves.

    Summary

    It’s like playing dress up, like they used to, because Vi wouldn’t ever. She strips him past his jacket to a tank top and pants and she traces the contractions of muscle under his arms where veins travel and converge with paint on her fingers.

    Ekko’s skin is more warm and alive than hers is anymore.

    For her he leaves splotches and swirls of paint all over. Arms, legs, chest, back. Into her side he sears a huge blue star. The pink under her cheeks count as another encounter with closeness and his eyes again. Only a small amount of it is rubbed away by a sweaty fist and laughter.

    She stands with both arms out, “Are you trying to mark me?”

    Summary

    “Isha, this is. . . Ekko.” Jinx looked up at him. The same look in her gaze from when they last saw each other on the bridge before she released the safety pin on her bomb. The furrowed brows, the molten gaze and soft smile that faded as soon as it appeared. “An old friend.”
    -
    Ekko learns an invaluable lesson from Powder— carrying it to heart as he returns back to his timeline. The first thing he does is seek her. Only to find that she’s not alone when adorable gold eyes peered from behind a wary Jinx.

    She didn’t know what to make of Ekko but his words resonated deep within her. She wants to be deserving of Isha’s love. . . and maybe, down the road, his as well. She can only hope that she doesn’t jinx it.

    In a whirlwind of events, Ekko and Jinx forge their own path to building something new in the wasteland they call home.

    An alternate take on Arcane S2 Act III.

    Summary

    Powder knows this Ekko isn't her Ekko, she's known almost immediately.

    or

    “You’re pretty cool.” He says, and he sounds melancholy.

    “Did you think I wouldn’t be?” She cocks an eyebrow in faux offense. He laughs again but this time it’s heavy, fondness, longing… something sad. (why is it always something sad).

    “No, Powder I always… I always thought you were cool.”

    “Flatterer.” She flicks an eraser off the table, suddenly finding it a bit hard to look at him. She and Ekko were close (her Ekko, she doesn’t know about this Ekko) since they were kids, nobody had been surprised that she and Ekko had ended up together. Ekko, her Ekko had ended up saying something similar in a roundabout way; that he’d liked her since they were small.

    Summary

    "She had cut her braids. He hair fell loose on her shoulders, softening her features to an unbearable degree. Fate had a cruel sense of humor. More than ever, she looked like the girl he had left behind.
    Ekko stared, ready to rewind time again. He would continue to do so for as long as he needed. He would deal with the picture of her falling from the platform later, or better yet : forget it entirely. All that mattered now was her."

    With Noxus on its way to wage war against the sister cities, it's up to Jinx and Ekko to rally the Undercity together and get ready to join the fight. But there is so much to do, so little time. And yet... maybe, among the chaos of the oncoming storm, they'll find the time and will to pick up the pieces of what they once were. Maybe they can put them back together.
    Maybe they can build something new.
    Hope is a winged beast, and now is the time to learn how to fly.

    Or : what happened during the timeskip between Jinx's rescue at the beginning of episode 9, and her arrival on the battlefield? My guess is a whole lot.

    Summary

    He’s familiar with the space Viktor takes up, standing next to him by the blackboard or sitting down at the tables. He knows how Viktor will shuffle underneath Jayce’s arm to correct a mistake in his maths, or rewrite a messy theory while Jayce prattles on about the next steps. He knows the surprising sturdiness of Viktor’s cane, as it smacks at his ankles when Jayce doesn’t make room fast enough.

    Viktor is no stranger to Jayce.

    ~~~

    This is just 23k of Jayce being hopelessly in love with Viktor. That's it. That's the fic.

    They toast. They toast again. To Piltover. To their partnership. To their dream.

    Viktor idly wonders how long they’ve been sitting so close, how long he’s been smiling, watching Jayce drink and talk, how easily he could get used to this.
