    Summary

    "If his decision to show up in Jayce's room to talk to him had initially been driven by what he'd said that same day, managing to stimulate his scientific side, after reading his notebook he had found himself also driven by a completely different kind of curiosity.
    Jayce had given him the impression of being an interesting person.
    [...]
    It was also the first time Viktor had found himself wanting to impress someone, wanting to genuinely capture their interest, outside of the academic realm.
    [...]
    “Wait, stop the carriage!” He almost screamed in panic, holding onto his seat in anticipation of the sudden stop. “We have to go back.”
    The coachman did as he was told, and when the carriage stopped, Viktor turned to Caitlyn. Whatever words were about to rise in his throat died as soon as he met her gaze. She was staring at him; in fact, with a stunned expression etched on her face. They both ignored the other man’s complaints, taken aback.
    “You know.” She whispered. Even though it wasn’t a question, she couldn’t hide the surprise in her tone.
    Viktor didn’t need to ask what she was referring to because; yes, he knew."

    Summary

    “Nothing to be ashamed of,” the old woman says when he’s gone, patting Viktor’s shoulder. “Plenty of men damaged in the war.”

    Viktor looks at Jayce through the sunny haze of the market: his sweet man, suffering, lopsided, white-knuckling the grip of his cane. The traces of silver shining in his hair.

    “Yes,” Viktor says faintly. “He was, ah. Damaged in the war.”

    Summary

    The Hexcore spits them out somewhere neither of them recognises.

    Neither of them really talks, at first. It’s hard for Jayce to recount what happened, and sometimes, when he does try, it ends up feeling like he’s been flashbanged, the pounding in his head immediately deterring him from the thoughts. Viktor would look concerned with him, then, and ask a soft “Are you alright, Jayce?”

    Jayce would snip the conversation in the bud with a sharp nod, and that would be it. After all, what would he even say? How do you tell your partner that the monster you both created, inhabiting his body, put Jayce through things that most probably gave him permanent brain damage?

    Summary

    Viktor starts to speak around Jayce in Zaunite, and once he starts, he can't seem to stop. It's not as if Jayce understands him, so why should it matter if he calls him pet names or tells him how much he loves him? Jayce will never know. And it's not as if he'd ever love him back, right?

    Or: 5 times Viktor spoke in Zaunite and 1 time Jayce spoke it too

    Summary

    He woke up half-crushed on a futon with Jayce’s head on his shoulder, muttering in his sleep. There was a blue screen flickering in front of them—Hextech, he thought, for a terrified moment, before something in his blood told him they’d fallen asleep watching something together, a movie, which he sort of understood, even if he didn’t think he could explain it. 

    In the cold glow of the screen, Jayce looked strangely… exposed. It was easier to look at Jayce through the beady white eyes of a god, or his soul in the cosmos, than it was to look at what Viktor had done to him now. For a moment he touched their foreheads together—selfish, selfish—just to feel Jayce’s warmth on his skin. The illusion that he had started something instead of ending it, saved someone instead of ruining him. 

    Jayce and Viktor wake up in another timeline.

    All Viktor wants is to keep him safe.

    Summary

    It’s not as though Viktor doesn’t eat. 

    Jayce has run through the proof he’s collected many times to assure himself that this is a fact based on evidence and reason— that Vikor does eat— despite Jayce rarely actually seeing him do so. Viktor just has… poor habits. Worrying habits. 

    Or: Jayce worries about Viktor and does what any normal, good lab partner would do, and dedicates a totally normal and not absurd amount of time and effort to cook for him.

    Summary

    That was not about trust,” Viktor says, already sick of repeating himself. “You know I trust him. He is my partner.”

    “Then surely, he deserves to know that his partner is dying.”

    “But he can’t do anything about it.”

    Silence. Viktor feels like a bug, trapped under a magnifying glass. When the professor speaks again, he clenches his teeth. “You know what I think? I think you’re afraid to trust him. It’s not about what he can’t do. It’s about what he can—isn’t it?”

    or; Viktor just wants to go quietly, Jayce refuses to let him.

    Summary

    Jayce shivered against him, pushed himself tighter into his arms. He felt a featherlight touch on his back, tracing delicate shapes as Viktor murmured into the top of his head, “Good morning, Jayce. Happy birthday.” His voice somehow bridged the gap between honey and gravel, and it gave off its own sort of warmth. Jayce smiled into his chest.

    “Thank you, love.”

    The arcane drops them into a different hemisphere and the winter takes Jayce's birthday. Viktor is there to hold him together.

    OR

    Another "Jayce hates the winter and Viktor takes care of him" fic. But birthday-flavored.

    Summary

    Jayce didn’t expect his dream to come true when Viktor reciprocated his pent-up feelings and they shared a night of tenderness, of love. But life is cruel, unjust, unfair. It tests them and tries to pull them away, but even the threat of death is not enough to break apart their souls, perfectly intertwined with each other.

    Summary

    Jayce Talis hasn’t skated in 147 days.

    But he still comes here. Most mornings, just before sunrise. Climbs to the top bleacher like he’s surveying a holy ruin. One leg strapped in carbon and velcro. The other twitching with the echo of routines he used to run in his sleep. The ache is familiar now. A quiet, persistent hum beneath the ribs.

    He used to own this place. The rink, the ice, the silence. It bowed beneath him like it was lucky to be chosen. Every jump was a threat, every spin a dare. He hadn’t realized how much of his sense of self came from the sound of applause.

    Now the silence feels accusatory.

    But still— he comes.

    Today, though, there’s someone else on the ice.

    Summary

    Jayce doesn’t expect much when he seeks shelter from the rain at a cozy-but-chaotic record store with a weird name and weirder inventory. He especially doesn’t expect Viktor—sharp-eyed, quiet, brilliant in the way old songs are—either. The kind of brilliant that sneaks under your skin and settles there.

    Viktor doesn’t believe in love at first sight. Or second. Or third. But there’s something about Jayce, the way he laughs, the way he hums without meaning to, the way he opens asking for anything back…that starts to unravel old, careful walls.

    In between alphabetizing vinyls, open mic nights, and tentative sips of shared tea, something slow and soft begins to grow. Something real.
