    Summary

    Viktor lays awake, listening to the steady breathing beside him. The breathing of a man sleeping on his husband’s side of the bed, in his husband’s clothes, with his husband’s face, but who is most certainly not his husband

    or

    Jayce hasn’t been acting like himself and Viktor is determined to get to the bottom of it.

    Summary

    He had gone from toiling as an assistant to teaching first year classes and filling in for the more senior professors when the occasion arose. It was boring. Biology was not even his field of study. Not that he had an official field of study, unless memorizing Heimerdinger’s insane organizational system, a thing built over centuries, counted. His life was a monotony quickly slipping through his fingers. His leg and back were failing. He felt old before his time and there was the ever-ticking clock hanging over his head.
    There had been a promise of something more, once. An explosion. A journal that was meant to be destroyed. A theory so insane it barely made sense until you looked closer and realized that the science was sound. However, it was not to be. A child had died.

     

    Instead of forgetting Viktor exists, Heimerdinger seeks him out when he, Ekko, and Powder hit a snag with their Hextech research. It doesn't take long to realize that they need a fifth great mind and Viktor goes to find Jayce while the timeline starts to shatter.

    Summary

    Through a strength he never knew he possessed, Jayce drags the pieces of his fractured mind back into cohesion and builds a fortress out of memories. He relives old conversations over and over, preserving his sanity through Viktor's voice and better times with his partner. He doesn't know how he'll escape. He only knows that he has to try.

    Then Viktor breaks the script.

    OR, Jayce isn't corrupted by the Arcane. Viktor is determined to bring him home.

    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).
