    Summary

    Ambessa’s forces had fallen back, but there had been a price. Many lives were lost, Caitlyn and Mel had locked down the city of Piltover, trying to dig out the rapidly increasing infection of the Anomaly within the Undercity that had taken hold. The Black Rose waits patiently in the wings, the raven watching with a keen eye.

    Jinx and Vander went missing when they fell through the destruction of the Hexcore, Ekko searching for any clues he could find on their disappearance, Vi working tirelessly alongside him. Meanwhile, Sevika tries to secure what she can of Zaun, suddenly fearing even more for the place she calls home. The Arcane lurks around every corner now, making it unsafe as quarantines take place.

    And Jayce… Viktor wants to keep him alive now that they’re going to be partners again. Jayce just wants to breathe.

    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

    “Enlighten me, Odysseus. What do you value most?” Patience was a waning thing in Zeus’ tone, the god leaning in close and as smothering as the humid front of a storm. A strong hand grasped Odysseus’ jaw, bringing in the king nose to nose to with a god who now stood to scale with the man atop the deck.

    The unblinking eyes of his crew and the electric gaze of a king upon him, nowhere to run and none to outwit. To persuade? Odysseus raised his chin in Zeus’ grasp, shrugging off his tattered tunic from his shoulder, “There are many roads to settle a debt owed, no?”

    The fingertips digging into his jaw slackened for but a moment, the gall of a mortal making Zeus briefly falter before he spoke, “Persuade me then.”

    Summary

    “Maybe you could learn to forgive.”

    Poseidon really could’ve, but it’s too late to learn that lesson now. You could say he was taught a lesson either way – but he wouldn’t be the only one. Yes, soon, all of Olympus will learn: The Earthshaker was brought to his knees by a mortal.
