    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks Jayce why he stayed behind in the Arcane, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question — as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    *

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together—piece by stubborn piece.

    Summary

    Massive spoiler for the entirety of season 2 of Arcane!

    Jayce and Viktor find themselves stranded in an unfamiliar wilderness, forced to confront the consequences of their past choices and the scars left behind. As they struggle to survive, they become entangled in new political machinations that threaten to pull them back into the cycles of ambition and conflict. Will they repeat the mistakes of their past, or will they find the strength to chart a new path forward?

    "Jayce’s eyes snapped open, his chest heaving as if he had just surfaced from drowning, the desperate gasp of breath slicing the quiet air. For a moment, he couldn’t remember where he was. The sensation of stillness pressed against him, disorienting and suffocating all at once. Then it came flooding back in fragments, vivid and painful: the celestial expanse of Viktor’s hive mind, the sharp glow of the acceleration rune pulsing in Viktor’s hand, his trembling breath as their foreheads had touched for the last time—then the light. Swallowing them whole."

    Summary

    He was powerless, completely and utterly powerless, and it was the one goddamn time in his life he tried to actually reach out and help… He tried to speak, tried to move, and it hurt. He tried to do anything, and it hurt. He was powerless, and it hurt…

    He prayed to that damned dead pixel, to the stars beyond them, to anything or anyone who’d listen…

    Please. Please let me have a chance. One more chance to fix this…

    Curly woke up, gasping for air, eyes wide. One last chance to make things right.

    Aka

    Curly finds himself back in the past and with what he knows of the possibilities the future holds, he takes off his rose-tinted glasses and actually takes action to protect his crew from the man he once called a friend

    Summary

    Sanji raised his chin, extending his neck. With palms up in supplication and a faux plea in his voice, he cried, “Kill me, damn you!”

    When he realized Zoro wasn't going to move, Sanji almost seemed bored. His shoulders slumped.

    “You know what's going to happen if you don't?”

    or,

    The time comes to kill Sanji and Zoro can't make himself do it.

    Now with Illustrations??? see series "Broken Promises" for more!

    Summary

    Beer swirled around the mug, ice clinking against the glass, light shifting in it like an amber kaleidoscope. Shane watched it listlessly, having fallen into a comfortable buzz. He was numbed, hardly aware of the rhythmic swirling of his wrist, nearly forgetting the cold weight that sat in the bottom of his lungs. Music and chatter echoed around him dully as he slouched against the counter. The only thing he bothered to process was the beer swirling blearily in front of him.

    The sharp sound of the front door creaking open didn’t do anything to pull his attention away. His mind churned like one of those cement trucks. Slow, laborious, his thoughts smattering gravel inside his skull. Another shitty day living the shitty Joja way. Seeing the daily news over Morris’s shoulder as he used the company computer to surf the web on break… that made the daily drudgery that much more unbearable.

    Someone plopped onto the barstool next to him, but Shane didn’t think to look up until a voice cut into his sluggish thoughts and a shadow fell across his drink.

    “Hey, neighbor. You must be new here.”
