    Summary

    “How do you do it? Control it, make it do whatcha want, stop it from taking over you and control you, keep it from going all…bleh.”

    “Bleh?”

    “You know what I mean.”

    He snickered, shaking his head, but the smile slipped from his lips as they settled into a neutral line. He leaned on his cane to look up at the sky.

    “I don’t. I mean, not really. People think it’s this majestic, all knowing force, but it’s a lot more like a child, always watching, always learning. When it connects with us, it tunes into every fiber of our being. It doesn’t know anything at first, we shape it with our every thought, our every use, every action. We’re its compass, moral or otherwise. You know what they say, what goes around comes around, that’s very literal here. I just…learned that a lot sooner than others do. They take from the world, so it learns to take. I give of myself, and only myself, so it gives in return…"

    He glanced down at his hands, examining them carefully as they glowed faintly in the moonlight.

    "...at least, that’s what I tell myself. That’s what I hope is the truth.”

    Or, what might've happened if Viktor's path with the arcane looked a little different.

    Summary

    “I want you.” The words crack out of him. It feels like a confession, like standing at the edge of something vast and letting himself fall. “All of you. Even the parts you think are broken.”

    “You don’t know what you’re saying—You—” Viktor huffs a bitter laugh. He turns his head, just enough for his face to hide behind the curtain of his hair. “You can’t build bridges over crumbling ground.”
