Lay Down on the Wire by writingmonsters for Aylwyyn228

Summary
You learn quick in the Corporation Rim – especially if you’re the SecUnit tasked with, you know, doing the securing – that whether it’s proprietary data, equipment, or contract labor, you don’t steal Company assets without major consequences. And, for better or for worse (mostly for worse), Gurathin and I both have the stupid Company name etched into every wire and line of code that makes up our inorganic components.
And Gurathin stole a whole entire me.
So, yeah. This is what you might call "the consequences."

Summary
From what I understand, the human brain is basically an electrical meatball. A very sophisticated meatball, to be sure, but still – organic.
That organic human neural tissue – unless very carefully cultivated under very specific laboratory parameters – doesn’t always play nicely with the non-organic bits. And even then, see example: me.
That wasn’t even including the fact that Gurathin had received his augments in the Corporation Rim and company equipment – see again: me – wasn’t exactly premium quality.

“when you’re going to change the world, don’t ask for permission,” by lucentshore

Summary
(you certainly didn’t ask for permission before changing mine.)
Viktor is tired, and tired, and tired. His chest aches with a feeling he can only compare to hunger when he forgets to eat all day, but all he can think about is the warmth of Jayce's affectionate, friendly, and certainly (kind of) platonic touches. He needs to just... get some sleep.

Meditations in an Emergency by AppleSharon

Summary
Viktor is beneath him with that small smile Jayce had noticed the night they met. It’s barely an upward curl of his lips, but it somehow still reaches his eyes, bright with warmth and fondness directed solely at Jayce.
I’m so stupid, Jayce thinks to himself. He can’t understand how he had missed what that smile meant.
Jayce makes a different choice once he learns that Viktor is dying. He chooses Viktor. Everything changes. Arcane Act 2 canon-divergent.
