    Summary

    Viktor flitted in and out of consciousness. Sometimes, it felt like he was burning. Other times, freezing. But no matter what, the terrible, consuming pain dominated. Sometimes he saw Jayce. Other times, Singed. He had no idea what was going on. Jayce looked terrible. He looked like he hadn't eaten or slept properly in days.

    The last time Viktor woke up, droplets of tears were falling like rain onto his face. Jayce was crying above him, and Viktor could feel a gentle hand caressing his cheek.

    “I'm sorry, Viktor! I'm so sorry…” Jayce sobbed, over and over, “Please forgive me…”

    What have you done? Viktor wanted to ask, but he was too tired to even open his mouth. Once again, he drifted away before he could say anything.

    Summary

    The head pushed its way up through the water to fully reveal a young boy, maybe a year or two Viktor’s junior, with a wide, sharp-toothed grin that somehow had a gap in the front, and—

    “Are those gills?
    -
    Or; For decades, merfolk have hidden out in the deepest recesses of the ocean to avoid the humans who hunted them so long ago. Imagine Viktor's surprise when one of those merfolk chooses him for a friend and keeps coming back.

    Summary

    That little nagging voice tells him to look.

    Look.

    Jayce holds back from sighing in front of the little girl that's been waiting oh so patiently the entire time he's been quietly spiraling and turns back into the bathroom. He hesitates as he steps closer and closer until he can finally pick up the small piece of plastic to properly read. His entire body goes stiff as he freezes.

    -or-

    Jayce takes a pregnancy test and spirals.

    Summary

    Viktor’s face falls flat. “Jayce, I’m forty seven.”

    Smiling that thousand watt Talis smile, the insolent little pup says, “A real good forty seven.”

    […] Viktor reproaches the feeling in his gut because it cannot, at his grown age, be butterflies.”

    Things go a little differently. Viktor, a professor known for his harsh grading and dry wit, shocks the highest ranks of the Academy by sticking his neck out for one Jayce Talis. After unsuccessfully trying for years to affect change, he sees the opportunity that ‘Hextech’ affords. And, much to his chagrin, the face and mind behind it.

    Jayce is everything he’s sworn off: young, handsome, and an alpha. When his constant presence and easy affections reawaken old urges, Viktor finds himself torn clean between acting sensible and digging his teeth in deep.

    Summary

    Man and beast, face to face. And it could be so beautiful, seeing that light in the human's eyes, as if the pitiful creature is the most beautiful, most fascinating freak of nature that he has ever laid his eyes upon, but it isn't.

    Instincts take over.

    (alternatively: jayce learns that weird eel men arent to be trusted)
