    Summary

    Viktor sat quietly for a moment. In theory, he was looking at the materials in front of him, but practically, it felt as if he was looking through them. And suddenly, his irritation had a cause and a name. Jayce wasn’t touching him. Jayce, whose favourite form of expression- at least as far as Viktor could tell- was physical contact, refused to touch his shoulder.

    --

    Or: Viktor and Jayce finally realise that they very much want the same thing.

    Bookmarking this only halfway through because my god idk if it's the narrative tension or the playlist i have on in the bg but i am overwhelmed by Jayvik rn. 😭 Everything that they are, every dynamic, every emotion.
    The premise of this one is simple and seems like common sense yet it feels so fresh. Digging it.

    Summary

    After merging with the arcane, Jayce and Viktor find themselves traversing different universes. This one leaves them a bit more breathless than the other ones.
    _
    “You’ve come a long way,” Viktor speaks soothingly. It’s not Viktor’s own thoughts but immediately saying it feels right, feels like he’s the one saying it, not this world’s Viktor, or maybe both of them in tandem.

    “Viktor, this is… madness…” Jayce starts speaking but it’s as if his mind is muddled or confused.

    Poor Jayce. Viktor can see the strands of the arcane that coil themselves around him, trying to draw him closer to the hexcore in Viktor’s body. He himself can feel the arcane reach out, trying to get closer to Jayce like it’s reaching for the sun.

    “It likes you,” Viktor says and is surprised when it’s the body he speaks through. “Wants you ah… closer.”

    Summary

    “Is this..?”
    Viktor chuckled and settled on the worktable, his legs bracketing Jayce’s hips.
    “It’s a thought – a dream – I have entertained for a while.”
    “Viktor, this is what our lab looked like that first year, exactly.”
    “Exactly.” A sly smile made Viktor look even younger.
    Jayce’s hands twitched, feet shuffling forwards, then back again, mouth working around a sentence he couldn’t formulate.
    He was devastatingly hard.

    This healed the jagged edges, sealed them with honey. Thank you.

    The characterization here is fantastic. So much nuance. Jayce... god I love this guy.
