    Summary

    The mage is a blacksmith of reality, bending planes of existence for him to see. His heart burns in the hearth of a forge, pinned by the vice of time and warping in the heat, caressed by orange and blue. Visions offered in good faith at the edge of a celestial end.

    Scenes of him and Viktor pour over Jayce like warm water, steaming his cheeks and eyelashes.

    He lets the vapor take him.

    or

    Viktor and Jayce don't grow old together, not here, but there are infinite possibilities still—what was, what is, and what could be.

    Summary

    The distant look in the Mage’s eyes snapped to the gap of the roof, to the near-silent tuttering of other, watchful machines down below. “No, it doesn’t matter. You will be safe up here. It should be simple enough, to lay protective wards into the earth of the tower. I won’t let anything happen to you,” he vowed.

    Promises held no impetus in this world, where nothing happened, nothing changed.

    The Machine reset its position on its knees and replaced its hands on the weapon of a fallen era. I can’t stop you from making useless promises, can I?

    Somehow, without doing anything, the Machine had gained a visitor and protector.

    Summary

    There are two things every Zaunite knows.

    One: You deserve nothing.

    Two: You will take it anyway.

    So when Viktor realizes he wants Jayce, the difference in their stations is entirely irrelevant. He's never wasted time in going after what he wants.

    Summary

    Jayce silently observes Viktor and adapts to accommodate him and minimize his pain as best he can without making a thing out of it.

    They end up making a thing out of it.
