    Summary

    Summary

    When Viktor makes the reluctant decision to move back to Piltover after six years to be a professor at The Academy, he's forced to share an office with none other than his former lab partner Jayce Talis, the very man who caused him to leave Piltover in the first place.

    Summary

    Orphans in the Undercity were lucky if someone decent found them and adopted them. Most of the time, the kids remained homeless and alone. And in the worst cases, they’re taken by those with ulterior motives.

    Or

    A person from Viktor’s traumatic past attends a gala he’s at. Just his luck. He’s always been lucky.

    Summary

    The rocket strikes through the heart. Reality collapses in less than five seconds.

    Jayce rebuilds Viktor, little by little, piece by piece.

    And if his partner comes back from the dead a little different, well... what's not to love? Jayce is a quick study. He can adjust himself into a suitable form. He pledged himself to this task a dozen years ago; he's in it for the long haul.

    *
    To put it bluntly: this is the one where Dr. Frankenstein runs away with his bride.

    Summary

    “I do not recall telling you my name.” Viktor stated matter-of-factly. “Yet you know it. Have we met?” Yes. Many times. Practically lived together inside their lab, but he couldn’t tell Viktor that. No, this Viktor had no idea who Jayce really was, and he intended on keeping it that way.

    Jayce stumbled on his own thoughts trying to find an answer. Shit. Viktor is right, he wasn’t supposed to tell Jayce his name until later in his apartment. Damn it. “Uh—“ he stalled as he tried to think of a lie. “H-Heimerdinger had mentioned you once. You’re his assistant, right? Snarky Undercity kid with an accent? Not many other people here who fit that description.”

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    After the Hexcore collapsed, Jayce gets sent back to where it all started, the day he met Viktor, but Viktor seems to have no recollection of him. What happens when Jayce gets another chance, knowing what he knows now.

    My take on Season 2 Jayce with Season 1 Viktor until Viktor eventually remembers everything and they live happily ever after because I refuse to give these two any more sad endings!

    No idea how many chapters this will have, we're just gonna roll with it until the dopamine stops.
