Summary
Six years after he and Viktor part ways on antagonistic terms, Jayce wakes up in the Machine Herald’s medical clinic.
Jayce desperately wants to rub at his forehead, but the binding at his wrist stops him. He settles for squeezing his eyes shut. “Why?” he asks.
Viktor is silent for barely a moment. He says, tonelessly, “I assumed this was preferable to dying.”

Summary
The Machine Herald halts, all actions aborted in favor of keeping his body locked in an uncanny stillness.
Jayce doesn't understand why until he hears it from behind him. The ticking. There's even a fucking light blinking that he can see in the reflection of the various metal adorned over the Herald's body. An explosive.
The Machine Herald is fast.
Jayce is not.
or
Viktor saves Jayce from dying in a building collapse, but not without consequence.

Summary
The hands—the suggestion of hands and fingers in a play of light and shadow—clenched for a moment before going slack again. In the long silence that followed, Jayce tried to get his bearings. They were in a cave, but the entrance was close enough for the moon and stars to cast their pale light inside. He stood slowly, using the wall Viktor sat against to balance without his leg brace. One shuffling step towards the entrance; another. The air was clear and cold, sapping all warmth from his body.
"We are a tad underdressed for the weather," Viktor said dryly, seeing him shiver.
Jayce laughed. "We're underdressed for everything except one of Count Azika's famous parties."

Instructions For Dancing by JangJaeYul
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021)
11 Aug 2026
Tags
Summary
Viktor had sounded so fond talking about his ballet days, like there was a thread of undying love for it sewn through his entire being. Jayce understood the all-consuming passion to dance - it was practically a prerequisite, if you wanted this career. What he couldn’t wrap his mind around was how you could endure that loss, how you could invert that height of passion into the depths of pain, and not go mad with it.
Jayce has spent the last few years as the principal male soloist of an award-winning ballet company. When a chance meeting brings him face-to-face with his fabled predecessor, the man he sees in front of him is not at all what he expected.

Summary
Viktor wakes up in a body that is his, but not his, with a Jayce who used to be his until everything went wrong. They're inexplicably alive in a world that looks like theirs, but is not. Although... perhaps it's not so inexplicable. As Viktor reads through journals telling of a life he never lived, he and Jayce start to figure out the life they want to have together.

Summary
Instead of dissolving with Viktor like Jayce expected, he gets sent a decade into the past when Viktor didn’t even know him yet. Of course the logical action to take is to kidnap him. Meanwhile Viktor, twenty-two years old, figures that hey, as long as he can research magic, this isn’t too bad of a predicament.
Or: Post-Season 2 Jayce and Season 1 Viktor, the grief of having lost your soulmate while having to look at his younger version who doesn’t even know you, the endless exhaustion of being a second-hand love and also science.

Summary
Jayce knew it was going to hurt when he saw the first fissure in the crystal.
His second thought was relief that he was the only one in the lab.
He felt oddly numb. He brought his hand in front of him. The effect was….unsettling. Moving quickly his body could not seem to keep itself together. Particles of his skin floated in the wake of his hand.
What?

Summary
“Professor?” A voice calls, and Jayce has about two seconds to feel the hot little sting of hurt that he’s not the only one working with Heimerdinger after all, when Viktor steps fully into view, and Jayce catches sight of him.
Or—it. It’s an android.
It takes him a moment and another careful look to be certain, but—yes, it’s got a more subtle variation on the Academy staff bot uniform, white and muted browns, and the College of Sciences insignia pinned to the breast of its waistcoat, and where its shirtsleeves are rolled up to its elbows, Jayce can see the fine, thin lines running up its forearms, the divots in the synthskin showing where the metal plating must connect below.

Summary
Viktor is visited by a future version of Jayce, fresh from a world overtaken by the Arcane. And then it happens again. And again. And again.
(originally meant to be a crack fic poking fun at the prevalence of the s1!Viktor and s2!Jayce trope, but then I decided to place Viktor lovingly into the torment nexus and shake him like he's a cobb salad I bought from the supermarket deli)
