    Summary

    There was a saying: the more that topside changed, the more the undercity stayed the same. And Viktor, who walks with a crutch and a brace in the Talis house colors and wears a uniform made from cloth that costs more than what a hundred workers in the mines could ever make in a year, has never been able to mask what he knows everyone sees everyday—a Zaunite. He always belonged to the place that kills the flowers. It doesn't matter that he’s stayed in Piltover longer than he has ever lived in the undercity. He was Viktor from Zaun then, and he remains Viktor from Zaun now, looking up at the last traces of light spilling from the skies that kissed Piltover.

    ---Viktor in three conversations, one night a year before his death.

    Summary

    No story that starts with an overpass and a bottle of vodka ends well.

    Here’s how it goes: boy is lonely. Alcohol and overpass cliche. Boy meets boy. Boy loves boy. Boy does not say a word about it. Happy montage. Slice of life montage. Sad montage. Boy and boy grow further apart. Boy leaves boy. Boy does not get over it. Alcohol and overpass cliche returneth. Boy is lonely.

    Sisyphean indeed.

    :::

    Disillusioned, depressed and drunk, Viktor forgoes throwing himself off an overpass and takes the only marginally better route of texting his long-estranged best friend instead.

    Or: Jayce turns up on Viktor’s doorstep after five years.

    Summary

    “What brought you back here, Jayce?”

    “You really believe it’s me?” He couldn’t keep the hope out of his voice, like this arrangement was now permanent.

    “We study the intersection of science and magic together for a living, why shouldn’t you be Jayce Talis?”

    Jayce gets sent back and promises not to fail, but he arrives at the wrong moment in time. He ends up in the academy and runs into Viktor, who is just three years into their tenure working together. Who could blame him for breaking down? Or, s2 Jayce meets s1 Viktor and they both do some soul-baring.

    Summary

    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)
