    Summary

    Massive spoiler for the entirety of season 2 of Arcane!

    Jayce and Viktor find themselves stranded in an unfamiliar wilderness, forced to confront the consequences of their past choices and the scars left behind. As they struggle to survive, they become entangled in new political machinations that threaten to pull them back into the cycles of ambition and conflict. Will they repeat the mistakes of their past, or will they find the strength to chart a new path forward?

    "Jayce’s eyes snapped open, his chest heaving as if he had just surfaced from drowning, the desperate gasp of breath slicing the quiet air. For a moment, he couldn’t remember where he was. The sensation of stillness pressed against him, disorienting and suffocating all at once. Then it came flooding back in fragments, vivid and painful: the celestial expanse of Viktor’s hive mind, the sharp glow of the acceleration rune pulsing in Viktor’s hand, his trembling breath as their foreheads had touched for the last time—then the light. Swallowing them whole."

    Summary

    —Uiscefhuaraithe—
    The feel of coldness only water brings

    Katara of the Southern Water Tribe has hands scarred by fire and great talent, though no teacher.
    Zuko is a mute War Child, a herbalist and healer, and the Blue Spirit. He bears the mark of fire, and the scar of the blade that took away his voice.

    The first time they met, the Blue Spirit had just saved her, though not before her hands got burned. The second time they met, his name was Lee, and he was healing her.

    They live in war and they will fight, if not for the world, then for themselves.

    Summary

    "Anger had finally bubbled up at the surface and determined young Jiang Cheng had pressed on his wound with bitter resignation, as a form of punishment. Bile had burned his throat but at this point, he had forgone sleep and sanity. The pain sizzled up his leg, up and up past his stuttering heart, and right into his tired mind. It had silenced everything as effectively as Zidian tearing through flesh. He kept pressing on it curiously. He felt the stabs of pain dancing in tune with his pulse. His body had taken over for him. The thoughts receded as a primal part of his mind focused on the perceived threat, the pain thrumming quietly.

    Thump, thump, thump.

    Somehow he had finally succumbed to slumber. The next day to his severe disappointment the wound had healed and he had dismissed this bout of insanity as a conjuring of his tired mind.

    Yet, here he is, years later, chasing the same thrill, that glimpse of madness that calmed his racing mind. He hadn’t forgotten it. He couldn’t."
