Summary
Dennis always figured he would die in Nebraska; the place he loathed, and missed, and begrudgingly loved. Would he still go to heaven if he was buried in Pittsburgh?
OR: In which Dennis never finds the abandoned wing of the hospital, so Trinity never finds out he is homeless, Abbot is a part of the street team, and Robby is constantly worried.

Summary
"There has to be something you want to come back for. Something you can’t die without doing.”
Robby’s gaze roamed across Dennis's face, tracing the planes and sharp angles of his features like he was trying to commit them to memory. He already had a long time ago. The horrible, aching knot in his chest dedicated to Dennis was a piece of Robby that he tried, time and time again, to rip out. Always to no avail.
If he had anything to come back for, it’d be this one thing.
"Marry me," Robby said.
Robby, about to head out for his sabbatical and never return, thinks to hell with it—nothing matters except for the very real, very inappropriate feelings he's been harboring for his first-year resident. So he proposes. And before he can take it back, Whitaker says yes.

Summary
Dennis lays in the bed with a stillness so absolute it feels staged. A ventilator breathes for him in measured sighs, the sound too rhythmic to be human. It almost looks like he’s a kid pretending to sleep in the backseat of his parents’ car, hoping to be carried inside by strong paternal arms.
Robby would do anything for that to be the case. Instead, it is sedation that has smoothed away the sharpness from Dennis’s features.
It is a heart attack that has made him so still.
Or,
Dennis Whitaker fails to clear and gets shocked by a defibrillator. He takes it as a punishment for sinful eyes that can't seem to look away from Dr. Robby and decides not to tell anyone. The ER keeps moving, but Dennis's heart doesn't. It terribly, horribly doesn't.

Summary
There are cops in the ED when Dennis arrives for his shift.
Not necessarily unusual, sure, but he could've done without the unwelcome news that there's a knife-wielding maniac on the loose in their immediate vicinity.
Figures this would happen on a Monday.

Summary
Jayce was better at sociable things. Viktor hated parties but understood one half of a dynamic duo wasn't as compelling. Instead he sat at their assigned table, content to be the silent partner. He was kept company by Ximena Talis, Jayce's plus one. With the amount of parties they sat through together, if Ximena had to pick favorites, she'd have to think about it. And Ximena was definitely Viktor's favorite Talis.

Summary
“Who’s there?” Jayce asks loudly. “Show yourself!”
Slow footsteps. And then, from behind one of their prototypes, comes – a boy. Nine, maybe ten years old. Pale, brown hair, golden eyes. Ragged clothes. Limping.
Jayce frowns. The family resemblance is obvious, but Viktor never mentioned that he had a brother. “Did Viktor bring you here?”
“Viktor?” the boy asks, frowning right back at him. “I’m Viktor.”
Due to a failed experiment, Viktor is turned into a child. Suddenly on his own and feeling desperately out of his depth, Jayce does his best to take care of him while also figuring out a way to bring his partner back.

Summary
All things considered; the pitfall had technically served its intended purpose. That came as no surprise to Viktor. Rarely did he ever construct a trap that didn’t do exactly what he’d built it to do.
It was what he found at the bottom of it that left him rattled.

Summary
It is an incredibly frustrating thing, to have the knowledge of how to do something, without the practical skill needed to do so.
Viktor had tried several iterations of a new brace for his leg with what he had at his disposal, but all of them lacked the strength for true support, let alone longevity. This one had outlasted all the others at least, but had given out at what had to be the most inconvenient moment possible.
At least it is still mostly holding his weight, and he takes care to shift his cane tight to his hip to provide as much help as possible after he feels the give and bend of one of the bars. “Shit.”
Or: Viktor accidentally falls into a partnership with a blacksmith, after his leg brace breaks in the middle of the city.

Summary
He stares at the mask with a foreign feeling in his chest.
Maybe the Universe is mocking him. Maybe this isn’t a second chance, but instead an elaborate scheme to make him feel annoyed and guilty.“If you’re going to be climbing up the ventilation system, you need some protection for that pretty face of yours,” Mel explains, tapping her chin. “Also, the proper reaction is, still, saying thank you.”
Viktor scowls at her.
“Relinquish the flesh!” She exclaims, ignoring his annoyance; a joyful smile on her face.
Maybe he should've just died when he had the chance to.
Or: Death is supposed to be final, or so Viktor thought; because if it is, then why had he woken up in his childhood bedroom?
Or; after the finale, rather than dying, Viktor is spat out back in the past. Ridden with guilt, he decides to change the outcome of his fate. He helps people along the way.

Summary
“I’ll tell you how this is going to go,” his father interrupts. “You’re going to show up to this Piltie party, with their bright lights and big bottles of champagne and gluttonous appetites. You’re going to tell Jayce Talis that you came all the way from Zaun to see him. You’re going to offer him your hand in marriage–” Viktor does his best not to flinch. “And he’s going to break your heart.”
Alternatively, this is a bastardized Cinderella AU lol

Summary
Viktor lifted his hand to carefully cradle the tendrils. “Utral Mokri, the Tree of Voices,” he said in a hushed and reverent tone, “I’ve wanted to see it my entire life.”
It’s a beautiful tree, Jayce thought, but it’s nothing compared to you. Ringed by the light of the gently swaying, glowing tendrils, Viktor was a religious painting brought to life. Regal and elegant, he stood there with wonder on his face and delight in his eyes. His pupils reflected the lights, shining like glimmering stars. He seemed larger than life, larger than the planet they had found themselves on – like he could cover the entire sky with one hand.
Viktor didn’t seem to notice the holy state of himself. “Jayce? Are you okay?” he asked, concern evident in his tone.
Jayce Talis, accomplished inventor, arrives on Pandora with the urge to flee from everything he has ever known. He finds himself paired with reclusive scientist Viktor Sokolov, who studies tsaheylu, the consciousness-bridging bond made between the creatures of Pandora. In their Avatar forms, they conduct an experiment that changes who they are to themselves, and to each other.

Summary
“This is...very different,” he murmured, his accent thick and rolling around the words as if testing them on his tongue. “What’s gotten into you?”
“Would it really be so bad,” Jayce began, speaking against the edge of Viktor’s lapel. “To share a name along with our dreams? Because I’d gladly take yours if you’d give it to me.”
Jayce's attempts at getting Viktor out of the lab lead to the pair becoming regulars at a coffee shop near the bridge. Things go well until an innocent misunderstanding nearly throws a cog into everything they've built between them.

Summary
The Herald lives in an old clocktower on the edge of the Undercity, where he keeps a watchful eye turned upon those in need. The people both respect and fear him, for while he brings hope to the sick, he is also no longer entirely human.
Piltover is on the cusp of welcoming its new king to the throne, but Jayce is a man haunted by regrets and determined to shake the foundation of the kingdom’s old way of ruling. Not all agree with his new direction.
The king-to-be makes an offer to the Herald.
