Summary
Jayce was an artist once. He was young and lively, wooing patrons with his impressive works and making a name for himself under the alias "Giopara." But that was long ago, back when the world was still his. Five years have passed, he's grown older, life has changed, and he refuses to pick up a brush.
Viktor is a writer -- in theory. In practice, he hasn't written a word of his manuscript in years, and not for lack of trying. He's reached a standstill, or a lull if you will. His character, who he has based off himself, will achieve great things, but will he always live in the shadow of his creation?
(Washed up artist Jayce x burnt out writer Viktor)

Maybe We Don't Have to Pretend by WorkingGengar for octuse

Summary
After Viktor's break-up with Dmitri, Jayce finds himself slowly helping his best friend rebuild and heal after three years of watching Viktor love another man. Then an invitation arrives in the mail.
To Dmitri's wedding.
Six months their break-up.
To Viktor, the only logical response was to enlist Jayce's help to get back at his ex by bringing Jayce as Viktor's plus one.
Jayce, meanwhile, is absolutely using this opportunity to get Viktor to see he could do better than Dmitri.
(Like Jayce for example. He could do Jayce instead.)
No matter how many times Jayce had seen it, it always took his breath away.
And it usually meant trouble. “Jayce…”
Lots and lots of trouble. “Y-Yeah?”
“Come with me.”
'Anywhere,' Jayce’s brain immediately thought. “Of course.” Jayce kicked himself. As if that was much better. “Where are we going?”
“To my ex’s wedding.” Those eyes of molten gold gleamed and Jayce found himself falling in love with his best friend all over again: “As my date.”

Summary
When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, 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.

I’d be down.-
For Viktor, paying his way through university has necessitated picking up a little extra cash doing suggestive livestreams on an adult camsite. It's flexible, it's discreet, and it's just lucrative enough to bolster his meagre disability benefit into something livable. He's managed to keep a low profile for three years, graduation is in sight, and everything is going smoothly - until his favourite fellow streamer suggests a collaboration.

Summary
Multiple people jumped out from behind the couch they were presumedly hiding behind, yelling, "SURPRISE!!"
Vi and Powder were standing there with their arms in the air, while their friends — Milo, Claggor and Ekko — stood behind them.
"Happy birthday, Viktor!" They chirped discordantly, their joy plastered on their faces.
Their glee was contagious, causing a laugh to bubble through Viktor’s torso. He smiled at them, then reached down to pick up his cane. He held one arm out as he walked towards the kids, "Thank you so much, children."
Powder giggled, "We haven’t even shown you the best part." Her smile was so wide, Viktor worried her face might hurt.
She turned to lead Viktor to the dining room. The posse of adolescents followed along as he trailed behind them slightly.
The smell of pizza danced in the air. He was relieved he wouldn’t have to cook dinner that day.
"Oh is it the piz—" As Viktor entered the dining room he was met with a second shock.
A man. Standing there. Handsome.

Viktor has a handsome magician at his birthday party he has insane chemistry with or should I say, a magic connection

Four years have passed since Viktor left for Demacia to receive the life-saving surgery he desperately needed, and now he's finally coming home. He knew that leaving would mean change, but even after having all this time to prepare, he doesn't know if he'll be able to acclimate himself to everything that's different -- most importantly, how his relationship with Jayce is different.

Summary
“I am guessing you have another invitation,” Viktor says softly. Jayce’s non-answer of shrugging his shoulders is enough of a confirmation for Viktor to continue. “The flowers did not work? Or the strongly worded letters?”
“Not even Mel is working with me on this. She says I have to go,” Jayce spits, “like I — like I’m expected to recite all our research on a coin flip. As if anyone there besides her will even understand it.”
He hides his eyes behind the cup of his hands, though Viktor knows he’s still staring down at their scattered notes for a distraction. Between vellum and coffee-stained sheafs of schematics is a familiar, albeit more elaborately decorated, square of near-black cardstock. Its gold filigree glitters in the frosted light coming in from the windows, yet it brings no warmth. No glee. No self-satisfaction at having caught it too late.
Viktor slides it out from between their notes with two fingers, leaving it on the tabletop for the both of them to read. Jayce’s name is prominent in thin, blocky text — another invitation, another offer for his time in exchange for a few hours of pretend in front of a flock that’s already made up its mind.

Viktor is his colleague, an older Omega, but most importantly: his Destined Mate.
While Jayce wants nothing more than to court him and put a claim bite on the other man, it’s Viktor who constantly rejects him. Their scents call out to each other, drive them crazy and everyone else seems to notice it too.
Jayce is ready to settle – Viktor keeps running.

It Only Takes A Taste by frankengeneticist

Summary
It’s not as though Viktor doesn’t eat.
Jayce has run through the proof he’s collected many times to assure himself that this is a fact based on evidence and reason— that Vikor does eat— despite Jayce rarely actually seeing him do so. Viktor just has… poor habits. Worrying habits.
Or: Jayce worries about Viktor and does what any normal, good lab partner would do, and dedicates a totally normal and not absurd amount of time and effort to cook for him.

Summary
“Am I interrupting?” A voice cuts through the air.
Jayce spins around, hand still to his chest. At first he doesn’t see anyone, and then, following the sound of a small puff of exertion, notices the thin figure who’s just slumped back against the wall, cast in the overhanging shadow of the roofline.
“No.” Jayce hears the defensiveness in his own voice. Winces at his failure to be casual. “No, um… it’s fine.”
“You don’t look fine,” says the figure against the wall, tilting his head to the side.
“Thanks,” Jayce laughs humourlessly, stepping forward. The figure against the wall, now Jayce can see him a little better, looks kind of like a puppet whose strings have been cut, folding in on himself, deflated. “Neither do you.”
“Mm, very perceptive,” he holds up a finger, then returns his hand to where it was previously wrapped around his side, as though he’s holding himself together. “That is, in fact, because I am not.”
---
Jayce meets Viktor post-panic attack in the beer garden of the bar near campus. Viktor invites him back to his dorm. But despite their instant attraction, science takes precedence.

Summary
After being transported by the Arcane, Jayce finds himself into the past, with a young and healthy Viktor who does not recognise him but seems to be attracted to him.
This was his chance to love and cherish his partner like he was supposed to. Who cared about the Jayce of this universe? He was he worthy one, the one who deserved to be with him.
Or: no one hates Jayce more than he hates himself.

Summary
Jayce was supposed to go back home. He'd seen Piltover and the whole world as he knew it become a dystopic wasteland, and the only way he could prevent that from happening is if he stopped Viktor.
So how the hell was he supposed to do that when he was only sent to a reality that /looked/ like his own? How was he supposed to stop Viktor when this man who shared his name and face had absolutely nothing to do with him?
