    Summary

    “So, run it by me one more time.”

    Vi paced the length of the room with her chin pinched firmly between her fingers. She had been tracing a wide oval on the floor, her boots clanking heavily with every step. They had been over the plan several times already, Viktor lamented soundlessly, but he understood her nerves. Ekko, who was busy spinning himself in one of Viktor’s office chairs, slowed to a stop with an exaggerated groan, dragging the toe of his shoes along Viktor’s floor. “Vi, how many more times are you gonna make us—”

    “Until it’s perfect, Ekko.” Vi interrupted brusquely. “Everyone needs to be on the same page about what they’re doing, where they’re supposed to be, and what we’re after. We’re not gonna get another shot at this for months if we fail.”

    --

    OR: The kids from Zaun have a plan—find whatever Jayce Talis has been working on and steal it. The Progress Day Gala is the perfect opportunity to do so. The only issue? Viktor has to attend to "present" his research to Heimerdinger. He should be in and out quickly—just long enough to get Vi into place and dip. If all goes smoothly, he'll never have to interact with Jayce Talis at all. Simple, right?

    Summary

    “Is that… you, Viktor?”

    It was barely more than a whisper, but he almost couldn’t bring himself to ask in the first place. The question scared him, the coming answer he feared even more. He knew the question was callous and loaded, but he had to know.

    Those warm eyes faltered and became reproachful, they averted with a look of guilt, his eyebrows scrunching together. Viktor hugged his good knee tighter to his chest, his short and shallow breathing and his tightened lips betraying the hurt he felt at the question. The creases at the side of his nose deepened in dismay in the way only Viktor's face suited. All of these things told Jayce everything he needed desperately to know; this wasn’t the serene herald, or even the maniacal machine herald.

    This was Viktor.

    Summary

    Viktor's new lab partner has a lot to live up to.

    “It’s Viktor.”

    OR the Modern AU where Viktor and Jayce are Phd students sharing a lab. Gay crisis ensues.

    Summary

    Viktor knew how he looked. With his sharp angles and hollowed cheeks and colt-like limbs, he was a serpentine god with all his alabaster beauty.

    The nobles whispered about it. The investors watched Viktor move, fascination warring with discomfort. The Council scoffed at the idea of a Zaunite on their board—until they saw him.

    Exotic. Enthralling. An exquisite thing to be coveted for themselves.

    Viktor had once despised it.

    Despised the way they stared, the way their fascination was always tinged with something possessive, as if he were a rare specimen on display. Loathed the murmurs in the Academy halls, the furtive glances that dogged him everywhere he went.

    Now?

    Now, he used it.

    If they should lust after him, they did so at their own peril.

    Desire was a fundamental human weakness. A distraction. A vulnerability. And if Jayce Talis was to prove useful, then Viktor would use every weakness he had.

    Or: Councillor Viktor, the fic.

    Summary

    "So we're not the good guys, then."

    The doctor paused.

    "No," he said. "We are not."

    · ✦ ·

    Viktor has spent years working for Silco, split between his need for survival and the twisting in his gut at the violence he helps to perpetuate. After a bag of gadgets stolen from a workshop topside ends up in the bottom of the river, Viktor starts to suspect that there may be a way out for him after all.

    Summary

    "Jayce?"

    This time, his voice is effective. Weary but exponentially warm golden-brown eyes flit up from the mess of gears and screws Jayce is carefully accounting for, a scar-nicked brow turns up in wholesome attentiveness as he tunes in to his companion's query.

    "Hm?" Comes a still partly-distracted response.

    Viktor makes a little sound partway between an exhale and a chuckle.

    "I said," He begins again. "I believe that I ran into an old colleague of yours this morning."

     

    Or,

    Jayce struggles to deal with an old headache. An old headache that might just want to sleep with his lab partner.

    Summary

    He pictures the funeral sometimes.

    He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.

    He pictures swallowing them himself.

     

    Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.

    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

    Summary

    Jayce didn’t come to teach at Piltover University to develop a minor (read: major) obsession with Viktor, but here he is. The man is infuriatingly brilliant, dryly condescending, and has probably already dismissed Jayce as an overeager idiot. Fine. Jayce can live with that. What he can’t live with is the fact that he keeps seeking Viktor out anyway—asking too many questions, reading too many of his papers, lingering in his presence like some lovesick grad student. This isn’t a crush. It’s an intellectual challenge. At least, that’s what he’s telling himself.

    or

    Jayce Talis, a young and ambitious professor, gets an opportunity he didn’t dare dream about - teaching at the Piltover Tech University. There, he meets Viktor - a slightly older, respected and extremely reserved colleague of his. Jayce is somewhat intrigued with the man, his studies in particular. He finds the way Viktor’s brain works fascinating - like his opinions and theories are somehow a puzzle piece that would complete Jayce’s own research. Jayce’s academic interest, though, turns into infatuation and full-blown obsession with the man rather than his studies.

    There was a sound behind him, like an exhalation of breath or the flutter of a curtain settling after everyone had left the room.

    “They're coming. But you already knew that.”

    “Are you cold?” Jayce wondered, suddenly realizing he might be.

    “Cold? No. No, I'm not cold, Jayce… I'm dead.”

     

    Or, what if Viktor died in the initial attack and Jayce was left to pick up the pieces of himself (spoiler: he doesn't -- he hallucinates Viktor instead)

    “It’s just a dessert,” Viktor deflects, feeling the slightest amount of heat rise to his cheeks.

    “It’s not just anything,” Jayce insists, as earnest as ever. "You made it.”

    As if the act of Viktor making it is what makes it special. As if it’s worth something simply because it came from his hands. Viktor has to look away, busying himself with his wine glass, nearly empty.

    “This is wrong,” Jayce rasped, his voice strained with torment, so unlike the Jayce that had left mere hours ago to dance and drink and make merry and maybe even make love to the beautiful Mel Medarda. “This is too far back, I shouldn’t be here—”

    This Jayce was like a wild animal, bearded and shaggy, furious and heartbroken.

    The huge weapon thudded to the floor once again, and Viktor finally dared to speak.

    “Jayce, is that… you?”

    Stewing in his loneliness, research assistant Viktor witnesses an Anomaly take place in the laboratory he shares with Jayce Talis, potentially altering life as they know it (or might never come to know).

    Ever so carefully- as if his hair were made of glass instead of silk and daydreams- Viktor reaches his hand out, his fingers stretching toward Jayce’s hair. He wavers for a moment, hesitating only a second- what if Jayce pulls away? What if he is misreading this whole scenario? What if he crosses a line that cannot be uncrossed-

    He is laying with his head in your lap, Viktor chides himself. If anyone crossed a line, it was him. This is merely retaliation- the consequences of his actions. Something Jayce needs exposure to anyway.

    And with that, Viktor slips his fingers into Jayce’s hair.
