Summary
“do you have more?”
Jayce rapidly catalogued the almost deliberately soft depth of that voice in the back of his mind; a young man, perhaps, then. Their rather androgynous appearance had done little to define that, up until that single question emerged.
“More?” Jayce asked back, perplexed. The student’s mouth thinned slightly, a smidge of frustration emerging on his face for a moment, before he vaguely gestured at the table with a spindly, pianist hand.
“This is… Interesting, but rather surface level,” he said, and Jayce had to make a concerted effort not to let his jaw hang open. For the past two decades and then some, many words had been used to define his theories; none of them had ever been ‘interesting’. “I am assuming you are trying to keep it simple, for the crowd— Is there more?”
Jayce stared at him. The student stared back. The mentioned crowd milled about, as always circling around Jayce’s set-up with practiced willingness to ignore the court jester, the indistinct buzz of hundreds of voices becoming white noise as a soft whistle started to echo in Jayce’s ears.
———
Diverging paths cannot stop a fated meeting, and the love born of it.

Summary
Before she could ponder any further, the woman let out a groan, pushing herself off her desk. It took a few moments for Nia’s presence to register. Instead of alarm, like Nia expected, she just stared at her blearily.
“Uh, hi.” Nia said. “You’re going to die in seventy-two hours.”
Kate Godwin blinked. Then slumped over her desk. “$@#*."

Summary
The Pestilence reached Zaun on a warm, summer morning, brought by a near ghost-ship to the port. That was not a surprise. God saw fit to spare them for only so long. Singed knew the very moment it arrived. He’d been paying half the town’s urchins to watch the port and tell him of anything unusual. The road into the town was of little consequence, given the caldera-like shape of it. Most merchants went straight to Piltover anyway, where they were made to wait until a doctor checked them for signs of the disease. Slow but so far effective. Now, with the arrival of the Pestilence in her sister city, Singed gave it a month at the very most before it ravaged her elegant, white towers.
The Pestilence and Vi come to Zaun on the same day. Viktor goes home. A voice speaks to Jinx. The world starts to end. A Black Death AU.

Summary
In every universe-
Viktor is afraid. An animal fear from his blistered marrow. A hole in his chest.
Jinx is what makes her broken. A gun in her hand. A sieve at the base of her heart.
You can take the kid from the Undercity. You can't make it stop fighting.

Summary
Viktor is gonna die soon. But Viktor didn't really want to die in Piltover without having accomplished much. So he's gonna do something about it. Either he'll die in the undercity, or he'll achieve something, preferably the latter.

Yes, I am rewriting this fic, but I love and cherish each one of the comments left behind by users, so I'm gonna replace the chapters and add new ones. Also the oc's were cringe so I'm cutting down on the screentime they have.

The Gravity of Choice by sinsandsinners

Tags
Summary
“We cannot indulge this idea. You cannot indulge it, Jayce. Using Hextech this way means war. Catastrophic casualties that are unpredictable.”
And Jayce, his stupid partner, had squeezed his hand, hazel eyes searching Viktor’s and he had smiled, small and melancholic.
“We don’t have any other choice.”–or–
Leaving his former life at the academy behind, Viktor follows down a darker path – seeking to return to his Undercity origins once more. Different choices make different men. For better or for worse…

Summary
Before Jayce stops Viktor from bringing the apocalypse, he's taken to another universe--one where Viktor is mostly-metal and despises Jayce's guts to the point of trying to kill him on sight. Maybe, Jayce thinks, he deserves it.

Summary
Viktor has a problem. Professor Heimerdinger has noticed his long hours in the lab, and is pushing him to form connections outside of his work. When he discovers that his assistant, Miss Sky Young, is facing a similar argument with her parents, he comes up with a simple solution: the two of them can pretend to date long enough for him to finish his current invention. Surely no harm could come of it; after all, they're both adults, with no feelings for one another whatsoever. What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
"I came here because I wanted to help you complete your research. Failing that, I'd be glad to work with you on your next project. I enjoyed reading your notes. I still believe you're on to change the world, only... one small step at the time, I suppose."
Jayce needed a new goal. Viktor wanted to keep a man from jumping out of a building. Vander had just realized he wanted Silco to forgive him. No one really knows what Silco wanted.

Jayce took a deep breath. “What I’m about to say is going to sound crazy. I need you to hear me out, though.”

Jayce steeled himself, and then: “I’m from another universe.”

A Gambit of Gears by natumn for RainbowChaox
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)

Summary
Viktor would never become accustomed to the sheer radiance of the Piltovan sun. Nowhere in Zaun matched its dazzling light, even in places where the chasms were open to the sky. The smog of the factories always prevented that light from piercing the depths of the undercity. The only place the sun’s rays even approached the brilliance of Piltover was at the junction of the bridge that connected the two cities.
Viktor and his siblings were well beyond the bounds of the bridge.
* * *
In a universe where Viktor's mother was Silco's sister, Viktor was raised by Silco and Vander in Zaun. When Vi gets a tip from Ekko about a place just waiting to be robbed, Viktor knows it's go with her or let his adopted siblings go alone. When the apartment explodes, he doesn't expect the owner of the apartment to protect him, or take the full fall for the explosion.
Now exiled, Jayce finds a new family in Viktor's. Together, they just might change the world.

the art of picking up the pieces by obscurelittlebird
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
30 Aug 2025
Tags
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.

the coldest blood runs through my veins by obscurelittlebird

Summary
“I won’t fail you,” Viktor says, determined. “If it comes to it, I can do damage control. I can warn you if they plan to attack. I can break what they build. And just think, think of the good it may do! We can build weapons, yes, but Hextech also has so much potential as a source of energy - for filtration, for electrics, for tools and machines - prosthetics, even, and other aids. Once we stabilise the crystals, Zaun’s infrastructure could be healed in months rather than years!”
A rare, fond smile crosses Silco’s face. “My little idealist,” he says. “The world could never quite stamp the hope out of you, could it?”
It has certainly tried.
Viktor infiltrates Piltover as his father's spy. Then he meets Jayce Talis.
