Summary
Viktor had barely settled back into his work when he heard the lab door slowly creak open.
He froze.
The campus should be closed at this time of night, especially on Progress Day. No one except for him, Jayce, Sky, and campus security even had access to enter this lab. He knew for certain Jayce and Sky were not returning until tomorrow morning. Sky left hours ago, mentioning she would be meeting with friends from the Undercity. Meanwhile, Jayce was representing Hextech at the afterparty Viktor declined to attend at the last minute, meeting foreign investors who were visiting for Progress Day.
Viktor whirled around, poised to face the intruder while armed with a flat-head screwdriver as his eyes scanned every corner of the lab in search of an unwelcome visitor.
But no one was there.
---
Or, what if Viktor was in the lab when Jinx broke in on Progress Day?

Summary
“…I’ve never made one,” Viktor said aloud then, almost as an afterthought.
Jayce blinked. He looked up fully, caught off guard. “What?”
“I’ve never made one,” Viktor repeated. “A fort,” he clarified a second later. “Blanket or otherwise.”
“There were…other priorities.” Viktor’s gaze wandered around the dim, lifeless interior of the lab as he continued. “We didn’t have many blankets to spare. And then I grew up. Too quickly, maybe.” Viktor turned to Jayce fully then, and for the first time since he’d spoken, met his eyes. “I always thought it was a lovely idea, though.” His voice dropped, quiet but sure as he held his gaze. “You could make one now, if you wanted.”
.....................
When a winter storm blows through Piltover, the founders of Hextech are stuck in their lab, unable to focus on work. One aches from the cold, the other trying to keep the chill at bay. A much needed break turns into a soft conversation, and the conversation finds itself wandering through what should have been simpler times in a heartless world. But at least, for once, the world can't find them here. Just for today.

Summary
Spinning around fast enough to give himself whiplash, Viktor turns towards the figure closest to him that vaguely resembles an age-appropriate male-identifying person, and grabs their arm, leaning in to whisper-yell between gritted teeth.
“Please go along with this and I promise to repay you in any way I can.”
Option 3, the grand winner. Bribe a total stranger into helping him look like he’s not a sad single loser in front of his ex boyfriend.

Summary
-A Medieval Jayvik AU-
Snow drifted across a crisp surface of ice atop of more snow; so much of it that it left Jayce blinded momentarily. It must have rained overnight, freezing that cold shell in place. Over the bushes, the crowns of the dark trees watched from where they flanked the uneven road on which his family’s wagon had come to a halt. He had jumped off, hands letting go of the reins almost before he pushed them into his mother's, after he had called her frantically.
There was something out there. Like a magnet it had pulled on his heart, splintering his perception.
OR: Jayce and his mother find an abandoned Viktor in the snow and take him in. Gay panic ensues.

Summary
Originally it was the offer of a job at the local university that brought Jayce Talis to Mainspring--even if that ended up not working out for the recently divorced man looking to get back on his feet. What ended up working out was a small coffee shop in Historic Downtown Mainspring, where he gets to know the citizens of the city.
Then a new face appeared just days before Christmas, and Jayce found himself remembering what falling in love felt like. The only problem is that the man he's falling in love with might not love him back.

Summary
“Or maybe we drop everything and become farmers in the Demacian countryside. I can tend to the land. You can feed the chickens.” At that, Viktor tilts his head so slightly that Jayce wouldn’t have noticed if he hadn’t been watching Viktor’s reflection so closely. He bites back a grin. “Or maybe sheep. Goats? Cows? But neither of us have done anything like that before… I guess it could be a learning experience for both of us.”
Jayce realizes he made a grave mistake as soon as the landlord opens the coin pouch. But in Jayce’s defense, he has no idea how much renting an abandoned chicken farm costs. Also, he doesn’t really care.
--
In which Jayce and Viktor take their chances with the Demacian chickens in the aftermath of their exile from Piltover.
A standalone spinoff of "stars fading" (no context from the previous fic needed).

But that was the issue. Zach wanted to play with someone else tonight. And Viktor knew that if he’d say no, this relationship would be over soon.

Summary
It’s only when his eyes catch up to his nose that all peace he felt before gets drained in an instant as he spots a group of men and women surrounding Viktor. No, not just men and women, they were all alphas. Alphas that were leaning in too close, leaving too many touches no matter how supposedly innocent, and not-so-subtly trying to cover him in their scents.
Jayce had never thought himself a possessive man, until now.
OR
After a series of mistakes, Viktor finds himself going into heat during a crowded holiday gala. When Jayce finds him, all logic flies out the window. Their partnership will never be the same, but perhaps that's not such a bad thing.
