Summary
There was a thing in the corner.
It was watching her. Haunting her.
There was a thing in her face and a thing in her head, and they were there to stay.
There is a person in her life, a person outside of it, and there is still time to do something about itor

Summary
Singed doesn’t sedate him this time. There’s no need.
Jinx is unconscious for most of it. Well, dead, more accurately, but Silco doesn’t think it that way. The first time Singed put him under so he didn’t have to watch. He knew he wouldn’t be able to bear his child’s suffering.
He couldn’t bear it for a decade and he’d left her to rot, so this time he watches. He watches and he holds her cold, rigid hand while the doctor works, looks into her face so he doesn’t have to watch the doctor cut her open like a fish and meddling with her insides till something starts to tick.
It’s her heart. Pulse in frigid hand, no grip to follow.or: Silco made a choice. Now everyone has to live with it

Summary
Ekko is tired. In Zaun, no one takes survival for granted, and maybe it's this that kills him in the end. Not the fight, but the lack of change, of things being solved, the constant amount of suffering and no amount of payoff.
Ekko is tired, and this choice feels less like so and more like a consequenceOr: Timebomb week day 2 - Corruption

Summary
It’s a big day for Zaun. The day Piltover acknowledged them as independent, the day contracts were signed by people with knives under their nails and not enough care to fake a smile. That day would get put into the annals of history as a great one, a grand one, where names would be written to be remembered and small people nothing but a footnote in the wake of propaganda.
It was a great day, a grand day, one fit for celebration everyone was too bloody to care about.
It was the day a father held the corpse of his daughter, and a fighter the corpse of her sister. A day of mourning draped in drinks and joy, a day of blood and glory.or Jinx dies and Vi and SIlco must deal with it

Summary
The tragedy is that we all have favourites. A parent might claim to love all their children equally, and they never consider a day that belief will be challenged, but it is. And it's true and tragic to have to choose.
Vander was forced with that choice, same way he was forced all those years back to choose one city over one brother, today he chose three kids over one.
That is, once again, a choice he'll never forgive himself.or

Summary
Sevika didn’t exactly know how Jinx managed to fall into the river. The woman was honestly more impressed by the girl surviving the fall, and had been silently judging him for his worry. This was Zaun, the river water was one of the least likely things to actively kill you. Not harmless, but there were worse things. “Brats swim there in summer, she’ll be fine!” She’d said. Had it been anyone else, Silco would have agreed, but Jinx hadn’t exactly been chosen at random, so it would only be her luck to get an infection.
His whole face is burning and he can’t wipe it away. His skin feels like it’s melting, poison stinging through his bones, but his eye is the worst offender, one hot iron orb in the center of his skull. He wants to pull it out, to dig his fingers where his eyelid used to sit and scrape off the muscle till the pain is no longer there.
“Does anything hurt? Sting?” He asked, and she sniffed but shook her head. “Jinx, I’m not mad.”

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.
