    Summary

    "You concern yourself a great deal with other's romance, Cole. Why do you think that is?" Maryden inquired one evening near the end of their stay, as she strummed a few bars of "A Garden's Grace." Her tone was curious, with a faint edge of something Cole could not name. He pondered her question from his seat on a stone wall, looking out over the dark water and the shivering reflection of the moon.

    "People need help," he shrugged, "with that, more than anything else. They keep their hearts in cages, safe, but sad. Sometimes they won't admit their feelings even to themselves."

    Maryden hummed – that note again, that little undertone of…something.

    "You would be good at it. You could write a song to weave two hearts together, like harmonies." That brought a smile back to her face, though she still wasn't looking at him, and her next words made him tense.

    "Could I do it for myself, I wonder?"

    Cole wondered who she'd need to snare, that way.


    Cole and Maryden embark on an adventure, and find something more along the way. Written for the DA Reverse Bang 2025.

    Summary

    If Viktor is honest with himself, it's less of a date night, and more of an test: can he trust Jayce to see the parts of himself (the parts of his home) he's accustomed to withholding to get along Topside?

    OR:

    Viktor takes Jayce on a date to the Undercity. It's definitely not an elaborate ploy to avoid discussing his insecurities.

    Summary

    Before he can stop himself, he picks up the phone. Every ring seems to last for eternity. Please, he thinks, be there, pick up, don’t be dead, don’t be gone…

    “Viktor?”

    His heart jumps. Silco’s voice is muffled, sleep-thick, but oh so achingly familiar. He had not realised until now just how much he missed it.

    “You do realise it is 2 o’clock in the morning?”

    He tries to speak but no words come out. The guilt, perhaps, has stolen them.

    “Has something happened?”

    “Papa,” he finally whispers. “Papa. Papa.” And then all of a sudden he is bawling his eyes out, horrible, heaving gasps and sobs torn from his throat, wracking his thin frame, and distantly he is embarrassed, but he cannot seem to make himself stop.

    Worn down by the crushing weight of (not actually) unrequited love, workplace disputes, past trauma, and the existential dread that comes with being an overachiever in your twenties, Viktor finally breaks. Papa Silco comes to pick up the pieces.

    Returning to his childhood home in Zaun for a long-overdue rest, Viktor must reckon with his past, his future, and the terrifying prospect of allowing himself to be loved and cared for.
