    Summary

    Locked into step, sweat-slick anticipation greasing the joints of their armour and unacknowledged fear hardening their muscles, they were impenetrable. Packed against their brothers-in-arms in a bronze wall. The sharp clang of metals locking against each other pushed with their leather footfalls. All at once rushing. Cohesive.

    Viktor’s thigh screamed, tensing impossibly tight against itself and trying to pull further. The humidity of his own breath condensed against the flat of his face plate. Too quiet and too loud and too humid and too dry. Dizzying contradictions pushing him against the others in his phalanx.

    Jayce and Viktor are drafted into the Sacred Band of Thebes — a formidable force in Ancient Greece comprised entirely of lovers that faced Sparta and won.

    Summary

    Jayce had gone missing years ago. Lost to the feverish pursuit of something in the same mountains that had almost claimed the lives of him and his mother decades past. Viktor, alone, dying, and desperate to find out what had taken Jayce follows the coordinates left in one of Jayce's coded journals.

    Viktor doesn't expect to come back, but he couldn't have expected what waited for him in that cave. Memory folded like damascus steel, and he can feel Jayce inside of it. Or something pretending to be him.

    Summary

    Cynte had never concerned himself with what was or wasn’t a social taboo. With his tenuous survival on the asteroid base, he wasn’t about to start. He just needed to live long enough to get onto the Hesiod.

    Summary

    It wasn’t a single fight that had marked a rapid decline in their partnership. It was years of small choices not quite lining up to catch the other’s notches. Years of different treatment because of their city of origin, accelerated by the recent downturn in Viktor’s health.

    They wanted to do good — they still agreed on that — but the difference in their morals was steadily becoming insurmountable. Viktor turning experiments onto himself tipped the glass over the precarious edge.

    Summary

    Olruggio pressed his cheek harder into his forearm. Tears gathered on the bottom of his eyes again. “I have no right to feel like this, Qifrey.” His dark eyebrows tensed, face crumpling again. A sob wracked through him. “I have no right.”

    Something cold and ugly twisted in the pit of Qifrey’s stomach. He tried to push any words out of his throat, but they stubbornly stuck against his teeth.

    Qifrey finds Olruggio poured against the floor of the inn they were staying in, grappling with the ache of loneliness.

    Summary

    “It is too hot for your nonsense.” Malik’s words lacked any true bite, and he didn’t make any motion to move away from Altaïr’s body. He stretched out his free leg, trying to press the skin of it against any cooled stone it could find, and sighed. Annoyed with the summer sun.

    “What nonsense?” Altaïr asked while he pressed closer to the other.
    ---

    Altaïr and Malik have a small conversation, acknowledging their past shortcomings against each other.

    Summary

    “There’s nothing for us to talk about,” Cynte lied. There were so many things left unsaid between them. So many things they should have spoken about months ago, things they should have let rest that instead they let fester. Rot pushing into slices of exposed pride. “You left.”

    Karis dropped his head onto Cynte’s pillow.

    “I’m here now.”

    —

    Cynte and Karis speak before Karis leaves the asteroid base.

    Summary

    Art; Jayce painted with a saint-like visage with motifs of magic and hextech surrounding him.

    The gentle, pleading look in her son’s eyes had been beautifully painted. Ximena felt her heart clench — it nearly felt like she was looking at her son’s face again. An idealist — sweet, and troubled, and too smart for his own good.

    She stared up at the canvas, tears slicking the bottoms of her eyes. Her hands smoothed down her skirts.

    He had been such a good boy. He had been so thin the last time she got to hold him. He had looked so tired.

    Summary

    Silver and tin painstakingly crafted into a delicate bundle of juniper chimed as the metal clinked against itself while Viktor’s trembling hands fastened it along the row of locks. Safety from old Zaun traditions soothing like a salve.

    The neighbours wouldn’t be able to come inside if they had bad intentions. He was safe.

    Summary

    There’s something wrong with this house.

    The nib of Viktor’s pen spat a blot of thin ink from its bent tip when he paused, trying to think of how to describe what had been happening the past few weeks. They’d at once been a blur and in terrible clarity. Thumps, sounding far too close to heavy relaxed footsteps, circled through the rooms of his apartment. Like someone remembering halfway through walking to another room there was something else they wanted to grab.

    Summary

    “Jayce, we can not sit in the dark all night.” Viktor tilted his head toward Jayce, looking up at him. His eyes did not waver. The features on his face sat placid. Jayce swore he could see him breathing but his mouth was pressed closed.

    Something was wrong.

    Summary

    Companion art for the fic Pygmalion Ain't Got Nothing On Me

    --

    "The Arcane has shown Viktor the path forward, now that there are no questions left to answer, and nothing remains.

    He can see it spun out in front of him, a thousand, million different possibilities, small choices tweaked until he finds the right one. The one that clearly meant to be.

    This time, however, Viktor chooses a different path, and turns from the Arcane back to the only one who has ever truly mattered, who kneels at his feet in supplication.

    He Who Remains."
