Summary
Simon didn’t expect his savior to be exactly his type.
What a welcome sight. Even if this stupidly handsome man ends up being evil, or working for the C.O.I, at least he’d die looking at something good.
or
Grace and Rocky find Simon's ship floating in deep space on their way to Erid.

Summary
Six months ago, Shane’s intimate conversation and break-up with Rose Landry was recorded and leaked. In those six months, his life had completely upended and everything had changed, for better or for worse. Except for Ilya. He still has Ilya, and he’s beginning to understand that he always will.
It’s 2018. Shane Hollander has to figure out his new life, in a new city, on a new team, while being out to the world but not by his own choice. Ilya, along for the ride, also has to learn what it means to be connected to a place, to a person, and to his own inner truth.

Summary
Like so many other bad decisions, this one begins when Tommy bothers to pick up his phone.
"Okay, so I may have made a few questionable decisions," Spencer says apropos of nothing, his voice a little too quiet across the line.
"Always a great way to start a phone call. Hi, Spencer, how's your evening? Good? Good! Oh mine? Well-"
"Tommy, this is an emergency."||
Or, Tommy helps Spencer out of a tough situation. Or maybe helps a tough situation out of Spencer. Depends on who you ask.

“Hi gorgeous..” a smooth female voice sounded from the other end of the line, Angela almost choked- in what world do hotel receptionists sound so damn horny?
“I’d just like to order some food.” she muttered after finally collecting herself,
“Mmmm..” the honey-filled voice hummed, “What would you like, princess?”
or an AU in which Angela just wants some lasagna, but acidentally dials a phone sex hotline.

“My lord, he and I… please. Go lock me up in Tartarus, or deal whichever justice you see fit. But, my loyalty is not subject to change. And I cannot stand by and watch you fight. The matter between you and Zagreus… there has to be some resolution, here.”
Zagreus overhears a conversation between Thanatos and his father that sets into motion an absolutely disastrous chain of events--because breaking up with Thanatos is definitely for the greater good, right? Right.

when i’m blind in the dark (but you drown me in daylight) by FlowerCitti
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
03 Dec 2024

Summary
Waves of color permeate the air, that buzz in his head growing louder and he hisses in pain, leaning heavily against his cane. He feels rooted to the spot as something emerges from the spattering of colors, a flashing light that nearly blinds him. It grows and grows, shimmering like starbursts, sparking wildly. He squeezes his eyes shut and something splutters with a pop, fizzling almost violently in the air.
He opens his eyes and there is a man before him, falling to his knees with a shuttering gasp, hands gripped tight around the arm of a hammer. All Viktor can see is shaggy dark hair and tattered clothes before amber brown eyes are staring wildly up at him, bloodshot and wide—
And familiar. So, so familiar.
Viktor would know him anywhere, anywhere at all, just by those eyes.
(Or, a feral Jayce drops into the lap of a Viktor who has yet to invent Hextech.)

Summary
Viktor isn’t dense. Despite his quiet disposition, he’s not particularly socially inept. He may be one leg down and one foot in the grave, but he’s still not blind either. He knows when eyes trail him and he knows when they’re filled with pity or disgust. But he knows when they’re filled with heat and want, too. He sees such looks directed between lovers and those who covet that which they can’t have, but every once in a while he notices a look or two like that shot in his direction. It’s flattering every time it happens but he always chooses to ignore them – it’s not like any of them can offer him what he really wants.
What starts off as Viktor reluctantly attending one of the Council's lavish parties, ends rather interestingly when Jayce spends the night over in Viktor's apartment.

Summary
The door to the room creaked and Jayce’s eyes shot open.
“Am I interrupting?”
There was a click. The dim, warm glow of a lightbulb flickered to life.
“You know, the sofa was your idea.” Viktor stepped into the light, a small, wry grin playing at his lips as he approached Jayce with the soft thunk of his cane. “I still think it takes up too much space. What’s the point if you’re not going to use it, hm?”
---
Or, Jayce gets teleported to the same AU as Ekko and Heimerdinger, and this Viktor is not the Viktor who left him.

Help Alleviate Your Platonic Bro's Surgery Pain With This One Weird Trick! by palant1r
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
15 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
“If I so much as catch a whiff of you around this lab before three weeks after the surgery —“ (three weeks! Viktor sputters incredulously, but Jayce powers on) “— I’m dragging you back to…” he blinks. “Who am I dragging you back to? Who do you have looking after you?”“I do not need a babysitter,” Viktor scoffs. “I have been through worse. I will be fine. I will pay someone to deliver some meals and take the week off work.”
Jayce looks at him like Viktor’s just said something incredibly and unbearably sad.
“So,” Viktor continues, “are you going to do the laundry, or not? If not, I will find someone else.”
Jayce is silent for a long moment. Then:
“Yeah,” he says. “I can do that.”
Viktor resigns himself to recover from spinal fusion surgery alone. He fails to account for Jayce's fervent desire to serve him.

Late-night post-gala conversations are usually something Jayce and Viktor navigate with practiced ease. But when sleep-deprived brains say words they aren't ready to say, how will the Boys of Progress drag their ways out of this one?

Summary
He knew he shouldn’t.
“Can I touch you?”
The words were a quiet plea, desperation seeping through them.
Very bad idea.
Viktor’s look was intense, akin to divine judgement. His gaze flickered down to Jayce’s lips, then back to his eyes.
“Yes.”
—
Jayce ends up in the past, before Piltover became the city of progress, and desperately seeks out the only person that can satiate his longing.

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).
