Summary
Viktor's new lab partner has a lot to live up to.
“I just realized- you never told me your name.” Jayce smiles at him with a certain glint in his eyes that makes Viktor feel something… inconvenient. Strange. He files it away in his brain and swallows it down.
“It’s Viktor.”
OR the Modern AU where Viktor and Jayce are Phd students sharing a lab. Gay crisis ensues.

Summary
Jayce expected a lot of things when he chose to shut down the Hexgates by himself. He considered himself ready for whatever death awaited when he flung himself through the Hexgate after the monster parading in his ex-partner's corpse. Had his own plans and agenda; even prepared and arranged a letter assigning out his assets in case of impending demise for if anything or anyone survived after the apocalypse they faced. Survival wasn't part of his plan. His legacy—and Viktor's part of it, through Jayce's biased lens—was left scrawled alongside the final pages of his notes, signed and attested with his, Caitlyn's, and Mel's signature.
Getting literally fucked within an inch of his life & past the brink of sanity; facing death & rebirth by the hand of that said entity containing his past partner was not a single goddamn one of those plans either.
✦
or; what better time to finally get laid by your ex-partner turned morally-grey-eldritch-horror-cosmic-deity, than smack in the middle of the all-out war you both caused with your hubris?
For Day 1 of Bottom Jayce Week

Summary
“And I hope,” he continues, pressing a kiss to the opposite cheek. “You get to be happy wherever you happen to be. I hope you get to be loved too.”
Jayce closes his eyes at that, another set of tears falling down his face.
“I hope you can find your way home.”
-----------
When the rune consumed them both and Viktor and Jayce avoided the end of the world, it didn't destroy itself, it didn't kill them. It spat them out elsewhere.

Amber eyes.
Human eyes. As human as the rest of his body, as far as Jayce can tell - he looks just like he remembers Viktor from the anomaly, after his mask had shattered.

Summary
Jayce wakes up warm and comfortable, on his belly on a soft mattress, cocooned by soft, fur blankets. They’re on the outskirts of Ixtal, a secluded cabin deep in a rainforest seeped in magic, and Jayce can tell from the cool breeze wafting in from the ajar window that it had rained earlier, chasing away the oppressive humidity.
“Jayce,” a voice says, half Viktor’s pitched low, half that darkly familiar robotic burr.
“Mm, today a Herald day?” he mumbles into his pillow, shivering when he feels the cool metal of the third claw trace between his shoulder blades.
Sometimes Viktor wakes up in Herald form. Today, Jayce gets to enjoy it.

Summary
When Chuuya became an executive and moved into his penthouse, he bought a bigger bed. It doesn’t matter much because the only person he really wants to share it with is as good as dead (but not dead, never really dead, that piece of shit would survive a nuclear winter along with the cockroaches, but he is still so far out of reach, even if to this day Chuuya is getting calls from random, heartbroken women). In between fucking on cramped single mattresses and couches and supply closets in HQ, they had never known the luxury of a bed that could fit the both of them. He had thought it’d be a nice change, if he ever had the chance again.
OR: nakahara chuuya falls in love, christens every part of yokohama, gets together with his ex-partner, and participates in a prison break. in that order, more or less.

Summary
He pictures the funeral sometimes.
He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.
He pictures swallowing them himself.
Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.

Summary
Viktor knew how he looked. With his sharp angles and hollowed cheeks and colt-like limbs, he was a serpentine god with all his alabaster beauty.
The nobles whispered about it. The investors watched Viktor move, fascination warring with discomfort. The Council scoffed at the idea of a Zaunite on their board—until they saw him.
Exotic. Enthralling. An exquisite thing to be coveted for themselves.
Viktor had once despised it.
Despised the way they stared, the way their fascination was always tinged with something possessive, as if he were a rare specimen on display. Loathed the murmurs in the Academy halls, the furtive glances that dogged him everywhere he went.
Now?
Now, he used it.
If they should lust after him, they did so at their own peril.
Desire was a fundamental human weakness. A distraction. A vulnerability. And if Jayce Talis was to prove useful, then Viktor would use every weakness he had.

A Taste of Sunshine by Tseecka for Amiko
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
04 Feb 2025

Summary
Eventually, Viktor stops even trying. He'll reach for an orange and roll it about mindlessly on the table top for a few minutes as he thinks, or ponders a particularly challenging runic equation. He'll roll one of them back and forth between his palms as he stands at the chalkboard, eyes raking over their scrawled notes and diagrams. And sometimes, he simply grabs an orange out of their dwindling supply, and plops it next to Jayce's elbow without a word. In all cases, the wordless request is there; and every time, Jayce takes up the orange, peels it, and sets it back on Viktor's side of the table. Often--not always, but often enough--he'll get a quick smile from Viktor, a duck of his head in thanks, before he goes back to whatever he was working on or talking about.
Sometimes, he pushes the orange back to Jayce's side, and Jayce realizes that he has not in fact eaten yet that day.
***
Sometimes, peeling an orange is just peeling an orange.
Sometimes, it means something more.

Switchblade by MmPumpkins, WitandWords (MmPumpkins)

Tags
Summary
It takes two weeks before Viktor stops carrying the switchblade in his waistcoat pocket. A further two months before he stops feeling the lack of it like a child misses their blanket. Objectively, he knows he doesn’t need it up here. No one is going to mug him in an alleyway - mostly because Piltover doesn’t really have alleyways but that's beside the point.

Summary
Jayce is hungry.
Not just your regular kind of hungry: a slight distraction from every day, the odd rumble of the stomach here and there. The kind where a singular meal sates you.
Jayce is ravenous.
The kind of hunger that consumes your every waking thought, every movement, grates against your nerves like nails on a chalkboard. The kind of hunger that drives a man insane.
Jayce is so hungry he could kill.

Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)

Tags
Summary
The hands—the suggestion of hands and fingers in a play of light and shadow—clenched for a moment before going slack again. In the long silence that followed, Jayce tried to get his bearings. They were in a cave, but the entrance was close enough for the moon and stars to cast their pale light inside. He stood slowly, using the wall Viktor sat against to balance without his leg brace. One shuffling step towards the entrance; another. The air was clear and cold, sapping all warmth from his body.
"We are a tad underdressed for the weather," Viktor said dryly, seeing him shiver.
Jayce laughed. "We're underdressed for everything except one of Count Azika's famous parties."

Summary
“This is wrong,” Jayce rasped, his voice strained with torment, so unlike the Jayce that had left mere hours ago to dance and drink and make merry and maybe even make love to the beautiful Mel Medarda. “This is too far back, I shouldn’t be here—”
This Jayce was like a wild animal, bearded and shaggy, furious and heartbroken.
The huge weapon thudded to the floor once again, and Viktor finally dared to speak.
“Jayce, is that… you?”
Stewing in his loneliness, research assistant Viktor witnesses an Anomaly take place in the laboratory he shares with Jayce Talis, potentially altering life as they know it (or might never come to know).

Four Million Miles from Here by LiteralWho
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
09 Jan 2025
Tags
Summary
What has Viktor done to deserve this? At what point did Jayce come to value him so highly? Somehow, this bond of theirs grew so gradually, so subtly, escaping Viktor’s notice as it entwined itself into every facet of their lives, strangling all else with its roots until only its verdant bloom remained.
“Let me go, Jayce.”
The grip on him tightens. “I won’t.”
No. He’s made that quite clear. Viktor lacks the strength to shake him off; if he tried, Jayce would surely release him, but to rob Jayce of his sole source of comfort would not be right, nor good, and so Viktor waits. A minute passes, then two, then four.
The rune swallows them up, and abandons them in an unfamiliar land. Is this not what they wanted? With naught but the clothes on their backs, they are left to wander. To wonder.

Summary
Former Professor Emmrich Volkarin had spent years settled into a quiet life running a small, quint flower shop in Nevarra. He expected that any excitement was far behind him.
Enter, Lucanis Dellamorte. Professional assassin. Antivan Crow. A possessed man.
A possible bad decision to take in Lucanis after an assassination goes slightly off kilter, and suddenly Emmrich finds his life is full of far more excitement than he'd ever had. But maybe, for the man who had begun to experience the world through a cloudy window of fascination but never truly partaking, the excitement would remind him what it was like to truly be alive again.Bookmarked by puddlejmping
