    Summary

    “Worse than last time?” Jayce posits a guess.

    “It’s, eh-” Viktor shrugs. Tilts his chin this way and that. A tsk. “Bearable. I’ve endured worse hangovers in college.” he was going for a laugh, but the punchline never truly lands. Instead, Jayce’s thumb rubs softly into the back of his palm, pressing like he wants to idle the muscle mass into something new. It’s such a small thing, whatever this is, and yet it steadies the flow of his blood; the relief of loosening a valve, flicking off a pressure switch. It’s the necessary cracking-open of his breast. Jayce squeezes. Viktor allows himself the luxury of a sigh. “You shouldn’t be here.” he mutters.

    Jayce reflexively shakes his head. “I took the day off.”

    “We both know that’s-”

    “—I could take the week.” he insists, almost a threat, a flicker of that eternal stubbornness coursing through him.

    -

    Viktor longs for a soft place in which to bury his teeth.

    Summary

    Rail-thin cats could chase hounds five times their size. Viktor could save the day. The concepts weren’t so different.

    (Zaun is in his lungs, in his blood. He was raised on its air, it decays him from the inside out. It is home.)

    Summary

    “You should have come to me,” Jayce says. He’s terse, but he’s looking straight at Viktor; he’s not put off by the monster Viktor feels he’s become. “Why wouldn’t you come to me first? You know I’ve been through it.”

    “We are not what we once were, Jayce.”

    Jayce scoffs. “And whose fault is that?”

    “Yours, mostly.”

    Jayce explodes, like he’s been holding onto the phrase for too long: “You broke up with me!”

    Summary

    “Of course, there was no way in Hell that Viktor would ever be able to shift the memory: Jayce’s weight and warmth hovering between his legs, half-lidded eyes and shaking breath. The way his lips tasted like sweet lip balm and his mouth tasted like shitty beer. Clumsy and inexperienced, Jayce had moved against Viktor like he was trying not to drown: frantic and afraid and desperate desperate desperate.”

     

    In the moments before a revelation, Viktor ruminates on the dichotomy of love and power.

    Summary

    A few tweaks in the way things turned out, and next thing you know there are men in strange cloaks with red clouds involved with the chuunin exams. Also, the Uchiha and the Hyuuga are probably more trouble than they're worth, but that's hardly news.
