Summary
Piltover is the City of Progress, but its politics are less than progressive. Jayce Talis, newly promoted to Councilor, is determined to change that, but the rest of Piltover stands in his way. By rooting out corruption and fighting for better conditions in Zaun, Jayce has placed a target on his back. After an attempt on his life, Viktor decides to take Jayce’s protection into his own hands, crafting a suit of metal and steel and Hextech. There’s only one problem—Jayce has no idea who the scary robot man who keeps rescuing him is, and Viktor is determined to keep it that way.
But as the danger around Jayce increases, and the Machine Herald’s renown and infamy in Zaun and Piltover grow, can Viktor keep up this double life? Or are the rumors of the Machine Herald and Jayce just putting them in more danger?
Meanwhile, Jayce finds himself torn—so much face-to-mask contact with the Machine Herald has awakened a burgeoning desire inside him that he has long thought he held only for his partner, who has no idea of his feelings. Will Jayce be forced to choose between the best friend he ever had and his new, mysterious savior?

Summary
“At least something beautiful grew inside you,” Jayce muses. “He kept you here in the sunshine, full of flowers.”
He shifts, moving closer, curling his body around the kneeling corpse. “Were you scared, at the end?” He blinks, looks down as he swallows back a lump. “Did you still have hope? That you could save him, before he turned you into this—or did you know he was gone?”
Keeping his head pillowed in the moss of his counterpart’s shoulder, Jayce reaches out to gently brush the back of his knuckles against the outstretched hand. “I hope, at least…” He sighs, drawing the words up from deep in his chest like poison from a wound. It’s just a dream—he can admit this in a dream. “If I fail, do you think he’ll grow flowers for me too?”
Silence, undercut with the buzz of insects and the roar of the storm below answers him.
“Ha,” Jayce says, huffing a laugh. “Yeah, probably not.”
—
Jayce dreams of his own corpse, kneeling in defeat for eternity in the ruined future. And then, eventually, he dreams of something more.

Summary
“Touch me, please,” he begs, crying openly now. “Viktor, please, I need you inside me—”
He needs more than that. He needs Viktor to crack him open like an egg and swallow whatever foul black tar clings to his insides—he needs Viktor to close those big hands around him and crush him like an insect—he needs Viktor to pull his arms and legs off like a sadistic child with their favorite toy and put him back together, to fix him—he needs—
Weeks after Jayce wakes up on the roof of the Hexgates alone save for a mildly concussed Ekko, he is deep in mourning for his partner, seemingly lost to the Arcane. Jayce is still grieving when alarms sound out over the city. Something has been spotted on the horizon—a giant metal construct with strange gold and greyish-purple skin—and it’s headed right towards Piltover.

Stop. Back up.
There’s another ghost in his living room.
When Steve sees a ghost with Bucky’s face through the smoke and carnage of the causeway, it shouldn’t shock him as much as it does. After all, Bucky’s shade has been with him since he woke up from the ice.

Summary
Jayce Talis has a problem. Two of them, in fact.
Problem #1: Jayce is paired with Ekko for Heimerdinger’s capstone engineering course. But Ekko isn’t the problem here: It’s Heimerdinger’s response to their new project, which results in him confiscating Jayce’s life’s work on Hextech and taking it who knows where.
Enter Viktor: Ekko’s reclusive roommate at Zeta Omega Nu who just so happened to be Heimerdinger’s assistant until a recent falling out left them at odds. With Viktor’s help, Jayce is sure he can get back his research and achieve his Hextech dream.
Problem #2: Jayce needs to get fucked. Badly.
Enter Viktor: Ekko’s best friend who happens to be Jayce’s every fantasy brought to life. But what business does a good boy like Jayce Talis have chasing after punk boys with tattoos and bad attitudes on the verge of expulsion?
If Jayce could just find a way to talk to him, Viktor could be the solution to all of Jayce’s problems. Except…Jayce has already been texting Viktor, pretending to be someone else. Because as far as he knows, Viktor's only interested in girls.
So, make that three problems. Maybe even four.

Summary
“Not to be dramatic, but you scared a couple years off my life.”
“You are very dramatic.” Viktor tilted his head. “But if you ask me whether I am fine again, I will hit you with my cane.”
The words were out of his mouth before he’d even had the chance to process, and he nearly froze, not sure what possessed him to say such a thing. He opened his mouth, ready to do damage control, before—
Jayce barked out a laugh, loud and unrestrained.
“Yeah, well. Sorry for worrying about my partner.” Even through the faint sarcasm of the statement, the words were suffused with such fond, familiar warmth that Viktor felt his breath catch in his chest.
Partner?
Well. That certainly explained the touch. And the warmth in his voice. And the way Viktor leaned toward him instead of away— an innate response. This, at least, made sense now. Viktor had not dared to include this option as one of his preliminary hypotheses.
They were together. Dating. Whatever the most adequate term would be.
OR: Viktor gets amnesia, logically concludes he and Jayce are together, and starts running experiments to confirm it. Jayce is whipped. That's the fic.

Summary
Viktor felt, for a second, somewhat sated. This was not the life he had dreamed of, but only because he had, on some level, not really expected to have a life to dream about. He had a comfortable job, a kind employer, he had more time than he ever really expected to read, to study, to learn. He had, of course, a yearning for something more, but while their travels interrupted his personal experiments, they also funded them. He could imagine a better world for himself, and simultaneously accept the hand he had been dealt, as much as he disliked it.
None of this was new—they were the facts of his life.
But after that feeling of being sated came another. Something deep, twisted, terrifying, awful. There was no evidence to support it, only a sensation across his fingers, down the back of his neck, clutching at his chest.
Something—and he was not sure what—was about to change, it said.
—
When his employer is hired to tutor a young woman, Viktor hardly expects to meet anyone interesting in the process. Instead, however, he meets Jayce Talis: wealthy, handsome, a scientific genius—
And an asshole. That too.

Summary
There’s no problem at all with a fun fling while working the summer Renaissance Faire, so long as the following unspoken rules are followed:
1: Don’t fall too fast
2: Don’t figure out that you are fucking your future research partner“Caitlyn, our new blacksmith needs proper garb before the gates open in the morning. Would you please show him to his site and introduce him to my darling tailor? It would seem he’s set up just across the lane from Jayce’s smithy.”
Mel Medarda smiles.
“Please inform Viktor that he can thank me later.”
Jayce and Viktor have a couple problems.
