    Summary

    “I love your hands. I always have,” He pressed firm circles into the meat of Viktor’s palms, massaging the base of his digits before threading their fingers together. “You're so clever. All those long nights in the lab, all the little gestures you make when you're puzzling over something.”

    There was bemusement in his voice as Viktor remarked, “I do not need a mirror to see my hands, Jayce.”

    “Hush, I'm getting somewhere with this.”

    +++

    Post-canon wizards. Jayce and Viktor travel to a world in which they're roped into attending a black-tie event. This proves to be a conventional excuse to explore some of Viktor's lingering insecurities. (Viktor's appearance and abilities loosely reference his Saviour skin)

    Summary

    It’s just a few tattoos, ink on paper-thin skin, until it isn’t.

    Until Viktor flinches too soft, until Jayce kisses him like he wants to absorb his breath. Until love becomes a promise one of them might not be able to keep.

    If time must take him, let it be after Jayce has carved every piece of him into memory.

    Let it be knowing he was seen.

    Summary

    Jayce wakes up after the arcane explosion, except- he is alone.

    Determined to find Viktor, he seeks shelter in what appears to be an abandoned house in the middle of a meadow.

    As the days and weeks go by, Jayce realizes, the house might be bigger than it seems (and Viktor might be closer that he thought).

    ----

    Or a post-finale fic inspired by House of Leaves, where Jayce is haunted by his mistakes and his desires.

    Summary

    Jayce was an artist once. He was young and lively, wooing patrons with his impressive works and making a name for himself under the alias "Giopara." But that was long ago, back when the world was still his. Five years have passed, he's grown older, life has changed, and he refuses to pick up a brush.

    Viktor is a writer -- in theory. In practice, he hasn't written a word of his manuscript in years, and not for lack of trying. He's reached a standstill, or a lull if you will. His character, who he has based off himself, will achieve great things, but will he always live in the shadow of his creation?

    (Washed up artist Jayce x burnt out writer Viktor)

    Summary

    The dead lives on, the living rot.
    Viktor falls to the decaying, and Jayce willingly decays with him.

    A virus won’t kill them – their (beating) hearts will.

    Love curdles into obsession, and death becomes a covenant neither can escape. In the end, only hunger and bones will remain.
