    Summary

    Even here, in this empty apartment, he can’t show one iota of weakness. As far as Piltover knows, Viktor does not feel pain. In fact he hadn’t felt pain since he left the undercity. It’s a point of pride for him, something he maintains obsessively.

    Until it follows him to his own bed, at which point he has to acknowledge the inverse: that the existence of pain is a point of shame.

    Viktor forces himself to go to work during a flare-up, and the immovable object of his stubbornness meets the unstoppable force of Jayce’s desire to care for him.

    Summary

    Jayce sits there, palms pressed firmly into his eye sockets, motes of light dancing across his vision, until he feels the adrenaline slowly subside. And if there is a faint tremor to his hands as he straightens up and wipes his clammy palms across his trousers, no one is around to notice. Viktor has left and Sky is… well. Sky is gone.

    Viktor has left and Sky is gone and Jayce is alone.

    (For now, he amends. Viktor will be back, Jayce is sure of it.)

    Or, the entirety of S2 from Jayce's perspective (featuring a lot of yearning. so much yearning).

    Summary

    Nobody rescues Jayce Talis. He’s left for dead in a blizzard. A young boy claws his survival from the forests of Freljord to become a man who barely remembers that name.

    And, eventually, a yordle professor drags his assistant along to study murk wolves in the field.

    Pinned lightly against a pine by his throat, the scientist studies the face of a wild man. Long hair, scraggly beard, a small gap in bared teeth, eyes deep and searching. Severe.

    “I’m Viktor,” he says, once the strong, callused fingers permit him the room to breathe properly. “Who are you?”

    Summary

    He usually don’t think about it. It still hurts. Even if it has been years. He wonders if the ache ever will subside. Maybe it’s the kind of ache that won’t.

    Or Jayce tells his and Viktor's story. From the beginning to the end.

    Summary

    Some people are marked for greatness. Whether they're ready for it is another thing altogether.

    Jayce isn't cut out for greatness. He's just an engineering student with too much pressure and not enough sleep. When his latest invention goes horribly wrong at a very public science fair, all he wants to do is throw himself off the observatory roof. Instead, he finds an irresistibly snarky lab assistant who understands him better than he ever could have imagined.

    Viktor isn't cut out for greatness. He's just a frustrated astronomy student whose body lets him down almost as much as his peers. All he wants is some peace and quiet. Instead, he gets a clumsy golden boy with an idea almost as compelling as him.

    It looks like greatness is a two-man job.
