Summary
After their emergence from the arcane, Jayce and Viktor’s lives have fallen into a routine. Jayce works in the nearby village, and Viktor does his best to conceal his monstrous appearance from anyone who might see it.
But when Jayce’s health takes a turn for the worse, Viktor has no choice but to step into the light and confront the consequences.
And perhaps he can confront himself as well.

Summary
The first thing he noticed was the smell of sulfur and rot, gas leaks tinted with mercaptan, air dense, thick and hard to digest, worsening his nausea.
The second thing he noticed was the floor he was sprawled onto, cobblestone filled with holes that gathered puddles, the stone was slimy under his fingers, and his attire was stained by mud—over other things.
The third thing he noticed was a crushing hand to his neck and a punishing choke to his wind pipe.
or: Jayce meets the Machine Herald, and he makes him remember what loves feels like.

Summary
Viktor gave Jayce a few more minutes before grabbing his cane and hauling himself to his feet. The light was on under the bathroom door when he reached it, and he cautiously rapped his knuckles against the wood. “Jayce? Are you alive in there?”
He heard a groan from the other side. “Unfortunately.”
“Is something wrong?”
There was a long, somewhat concerning pause before Jayce replied. “I, uh. I got my period.”

Summary
Jayce moves away from the mirror, crawling onto the silken sheets of his bed with a practiced grace, playing the part of the coy seductress for his own personal panopticon. He lounges back, letting his bare skin run along the silk, posing for portraits no one is painting.
He imagines posing for Viktor.

Jayce wears lingerie in the privacy of his own home.

Summary
Half a decade after Viktor leaves Piltover for good, a fragment of Hexcore permanently adhered to his soul, an old friend comes to him for help. This wouldn't be an issue, if the same old friend hadn't spent the last five years trying to hit him, very hard, with a really big hammer.
“You’re not real,” Viktor repeated, closing his eyes. Even with the knowledge that this was a dream, the gentle touch unraveled him. There was an impact crater where his heart should be.
The calloused pad of Jayce's thumb found the corner of Viktor’s mouth. “All right. I’ll bite – what’s your evidence for this hypothesis?”
Viktor smiled into the touch, felt it tug against Jayce's thumbprint. “Isn’t it obvious? You haven’t tried to kill me yet.” -

Summary
Ed lathered enough soap onto his body to completely cover the sweat, grime, and dirtied water. By the time he was done, he almost felt like himself again.
Almost. He still was no closer to figuring out what his other half was doing.
Without warning, the shower curtain was ripped back. Ed screamed and flailed and knocked his elbow into the back wall as a gun was waved in his face. It lowered a second later and he was able to see who'd interrupted him.
"Lee! What are you doing!?""I should ask you the same thing! You don't show up for a week and a half and the first – is that a hickey?"
The non-sequitur stopped him short.
"...What?"
____Ed's at odds with his reflection once again, but now he's losing time. He has to figure out what his other self is getting up to in the week-long gaps of memory while trying to hold onto the life he's made in the Narrows. The problem is, his other half seems to want to tear that life apart, and seems convinced that by doing so he's actually helping Ed get what, and who, he actually wants

On the advice of his most trusted intern, he'd accepted an invitation to be one of the 'celebrity guests' on this week's airing of 'Riddle Me This!' Hopefully it wouldn't be as excruciating as those school tours he had to do a few months back.
