    Summary

    He lost himself down there, in the dark. He can’t even be sure he isn’t down there still, and this isn’t just another nightmare. But if he is dreaming, then what happens next won’t matter.

    So he calls out to him:

    “Viktor!”

    -

    In which the mage sends Jayce further back to stop something from happening, or to make sure something else happens instead.

    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    *

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

    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).

    Summary

    Growing up as the Crown Prince of the Empire of Sanbreque and the greatest weapon in its military arsenal doesn't afford one many choices. Neither does life as a squire in the Holy Order of the Knights Dragoon.

    But where they can, Dion and Terence choose each other.

    Or, how two incredibly lonely boys of dubious mental health rose to power in a cruel nation, and fell in love in the process.
