[binghe-malewife-goals]

Me, an intellectual, scoffing at the theories for arcane s2 bc no one seems to understand the characters

#this is mostly a joke #mostly #but no seriously ive seen some rly stupid takes about how viktor will become the machine herald #yall treating him like he WANTS to continue fucking with the hexcore when he clearly says No Fuck That #man tries to destroy it and then asks Jayce to destroy *despite* the benefits the hexcore may have #so i don't think viktor would voluntarily fuck with it more unless theres like no other choice or forced/coerced to u know #also i dont think mel will die bc i remember one of the writers/directors saying we'll see more of her #not to mention framing at end of episode. sus #but if she does die then i guess i wouldn't be surprised if jayce becomes the stereotypical “grr! revenge revenge!” manly man bc i dont have #high hopes for his writing but i hope im proven wrong 😂 #also not to mention the fact when jayce. you know. acted on that revenge need he killee and kid and immediately regretted it so. #not so sure how willing he is to do that again #arcane lol #pina talks #*whispers* idk if yall know this but usually it bad writing if you immediately revoke something you set up in the episode before

Tight Spaces

Jayce x Viktor x GN!Reader

Word Count: 3.8k (EXACTLY 3.8k I will never achieve this again.)

Warning: slightly suggestive at the end, but that’s it

Ask:  is it ok if i request some poly jayce and viktor x reader? if you dont do poly just jayce is fine =] maybe the reader is an artist and they love drawing their crush(es) but because theyre a journalist they cant normally show off their art, but while at the lab one day, the other notices their sketchbook and asks to flip through it - and reader, forgetting that its a sketchbook and not a notebook for articles, says yes. after that, everythings up to you >=]

You’ve always been good with tight spaces. It’s part of what makes you one of Piltover’s most prolific reporters. You’re willing to go places that the majority of the prim n’ proper Piltover journalists wouldn’t dare. Which is partly because you grew up in a shabby neighborhood on the edges of the Undercity and partly because you were just a damn good reporter.

Growing up in the Undercity was integral for developing your reporter skills. You didn’t have many toys or trinkets to fill your time with, so you found alternative ways for filling your afternoons as a child. Alternative ways meaning snooping. Creeping around the Lanes and finding new hiding places. Unseen and unnoticed places where you could camp out for an afternoon. Your favorite spot had been a gap in the wall behind Vander’s old bar. You’d sit there for hours, drawing pictures in the dirt with a stick while listening in on the dozens of conversations that felt infinitely more interesting than your life had at the time.

Your start in the Undercity also helped to endear you to a certain renowned inventor with similar origins. 

You were in his lab now, sketching out the shape of him and his lab partner where they’ve been hunched over a complicated set of blueprints for the last hour. This is usually how your sessions worked. With you wandering aimlessly around their lab while they bounced between assignments and answering your questions. The drawing was a more recent addition to the routine, though.

Viktor, who was from the Undercity despite the two of you having never met, was a dream to draw. For as much of a show he put on trying to scare you away during your first report, those sharp angles softened pretty quickly when he realized you didn’t startle easy. His long legs and messy hair just inspired the artist in you in a way that you hadn’t felt since you were young. It was like coming home after so long being stuck in the stuffy yet isolating atmosphere of Piltover.

Then there was Viktor’s partner, Jayce Talis. Jayce didn’t feel familiar like his counterpart, but was intriguing and alluring all the same. Where Viktor’s shape took form in sharp, wispy lines, Jayce’s were sturdy and bold. He was comforting and bright, like sunshine after a storm. And wasn’t that the most fitting way to describe it? Jayce had been full of apologies and little jokes during the first meeting between you three. Where Viktor was a little less than welcoming, Jayce doubled down on friendly smiles and encouraging pats on the back.

Not that either of them could scare you away now. You’ve moved far past the awkward first few interviews, your questions stilted and the atmosphere tense with the distrust coming off of Viktor in waves. It was hard to keep up with how many pieces you’ve done on these two so far, you stopped counting when you ran out of fingers to count them on.

Somewhere between your first article on an exclusive Hexbros interview and the piece you’re currently working on talking about the environmental benefits of Hextech technology, the three of you grew close. Viktor was comfortable, like sepia memories drenched in nostalgia. He was a man from the Undercity through and through, tough and resilient despite all the odds. Then there was Jayce, who was his opposite in every way besides how much he cares. He hadn’t needed more than a day to win your favor, it was like he always knew what to say to you. It did things to your brain. Hence why you’re sitting on the couch in their lab and scribbling down their likeness instead of pestering them for answers like you should.

“It’s been an hour and I’ve answered maybe a question and a half for this piece. Should I come back when you two come back down from outer space?” You call out just loud enough for them to hear as you put the finishing touches on your sketch.

“Sure, let me put a pin in our progress on life-saving, world-changing, investigative technology for your silly newspaper questions,” Viktor hums sarcastically, rummaging through his desk drawer for something. To his right, Jayce’s stomach growls loudly.

“Maybe a break wouldn’t be a bad idea,” Jayce grins sheepishly at you while you’re holding back a laugh. “Science can wait for lunch time, right?”

“How quickly you abandon our team when your stomach’s involved,” Viktor comments while moving over to rummage through Jayce’s desk now.

“Hey! I’m not abandoning anybody, ok?” Jayce scoffs, folding his arms defensively. “And besides, Y/N’s a part of the team too at this point.”

“For putting up with your never-ending appetite?” Viktor grins slyly at Jayce.

“I was thinking more for putting up with your attitude, but…” Jayce has to quickly dodge the balled up paper that Viktor beams at his head. It does nothing to dampen the goofy smile that’s burning your eyes from the sheer warmth and fond exasperation it exudes. “Hey! Stop screwing with my stuff!”

“I wouldn’t have to screw with your stuff if you just kept the lab tidy.”

“You’re messier than I am!”

“You cannot prove that.”

“You wanna bet?”

“Girls, girls! You’re both equally as disgusting as the other! Can we stop arguing now?” You groan, shutting your sketchbook and setting it on top of an identical notebook. Identical except for the paper inside that was lined instead of blank. You tried to keep your reporter’s notes and questions separate from the drawings you did as a hobby. Especially when your hobby mostly consisted of drawing the two other men in the room. “What’re you looking for, Viktor?

“My toolkit. The one I use for detailing,” Viktor huffs, knocking the desk drawer he’d been digging through shut. Both you and Jayce could tell in the tense line of his shoulders that he was actually getting frustrated now.

“Do you remember where you put it last?” Jayce asks, his voice softer as he steps closer to Viktor. You don’t think either of them even notice, but as Jayce moves in, Viktor unconsciously sways towards him. For as much as they bicker like an old married couple, they care deeply for each other.

Maybe it was your reporter’s habit of looking into things too much and drawing conclusions, but you’d thought the two were an item. FOR MONTHS. It’d been earth shatteringly awkward when you called Jayce ‘Viktor’s boyfriend’ in front of them and they had instantly stopped their playful arguing to stare at you, jaws dropped. You’d stopped talking outloud about the conclusions you drew from their behavior since then. For your sanity.

Which was probably for the best seeing as, despite their insistence that they were just friends, the two had obvious feelings for each other. It was clear in the way they spoke to each other, understood the other’s eccentricities and adored them for it. You got the feeling that the two didn’t get to fully be themselves often, making it that much more of a privilege that you can sit on their couch and be a part of it, no matter how minor. There was a sick jealous part of you that squeezed in on itself as you watched Jayce rest a hand on the side of Viktor’s arm. You weren’t sure who you’d rather be in that moment, as Jayce leaned in just that much closer, lowering his voice until it was soft enough only the two could hear it.

Notebook. Yes. Reporting. Mhm, yep. You were here to write a report about Hextech. You should probably stop gawking at the two and actually do what you’re paid to do.

Tearing your gaze away, trying to ignore the pit of longing in your gut and give the boys some privacy, you absently reach for your notebooks and pens and they topple to the floor. You roll your eyes as your favorite color pen rolls under the lab’s couch.

Figures.

Getting on your hands and knees, you stack your notebooks and set them back on the coffee table. Then the hard part. You try and slip your arm under the small gap between the couch and the floor. It’s dusty and you try not to think about what you’re touching until you grab something decidedly un-penlike. Wondering what sort of horrific artifact you’ll find under the couch that has clearly never been cleaned under, you’re surprised to pull out the missing toolbox.

“Good find, Y/N!” Jayce cheers, making you jump where you were still kneeling in front of the couch. Turning to look, you find both men staring at you. You hadn’t even realized they stopped talking to watch you fighting for your life trying to find your pen. Aw, damn. Your pen…that thing’s gone forever now.

“Go figure, looking for my pen and I found your toolkit,” You chuckle goodnaturedly as you stand up from the floor, dusting yourself off.

“Our little lab good luck charm strikes again, however can we repay you?” Viktor teases, him and Jayce headed over to your side of the room now. Whatever Jayce had said to him certainly seemed to put him at ease, your face going red as you played Viktor’s words over and over in your mind. You could think of a couple ways he could repay you. Shit, focus, they’re both staring expectantly.

“You can repay me by getting some actual work done while I grab us lunch,” You make a big show of rolling your eyes as you hand over the box. Viktor gasps in mock offense while Jayce makes puppy dog eyes at you.

“Aw, you’re leaving us?” Jayce whines. “But I didn’t even get to read through your notes yet!”

“There’s not even notes to look through yet, we haven’t gotten anything done this last hour,” You point out. Jayce sighs dramatically, his big, sad eyes still staring pathetically back at you. Incapable of resisting, you grab a book off the table and shove it into his chest. “Here, you big baby. You can look through my old notes while I grab you ungrateful wretches some food.”

Jayce flutters his eyelashes and hugs the book to his chest, “Awww, you always know just the things to say!”

Viktor glares over at Jayce, “What? That’s not fair, what am I supposed to read?” Your heart nearly leaps out of your chest as you watch Viktor swipe the other book off the table.  

Drawing Viktor and Jayce in the lab wasn’t just a random thing you decided to do today. Your sketch book was almost entirely filled with different sketches of the men from almost every time you visited the lab for the last six months. If either of them looked through your sketch book you’d probably have to quit your job, move countries, and then completely change your identity so nobody will ever know you’re the poor schmuck falling for the brightest minds in Piltover.

“Not that one!” You yelped, quickly trying to snatch the notebook back from Viktor. Unfortunately, Viktor shoots his arm out of reach lightning fast, filling you with dread. Both men look at you in shock. Which quickly gave way into the most devious smirks you’ve ever seen.

“Why? What’s in here that you don’t want us to see, hm?” Viktor practically purrs, half lidded eyes making you stutter over your words.

“What? Nothing! Give it back!” Making another grab for it, this time Jayce swipes it from Viktor and lifts it high up above his head. You could kill him.

“Hmmmm, I dunno, Viktor. Sounds like there’s something pretty important in here,” Jayce has his free hand on his hip, carrying on a casual conversation with his partner as you jump up and down. You’re getting nowhere with snatching your notebook back. “Maybe we should keep it safe while our darling reporter gets lunch?”

“Oh how kind, Jayce! You wouldn’t mind, would you, doll?” Viktor hums at you. He’s not hiding his amusement at your struggle at all as Jayce chuckles and wiggles the book out of your reach.

Your face is burning from the energy you’re wasting trying to jump as high as you can and also because maybe you’re a little flustered. You’d almost missed the pet names the two had given you. Almost. It wasn’t helping out with your situation at all, though. Focus, time to think of a different tactic.

Neither inventor was prepared for you to take a running start and leap onto Jayce.

“Woah!” Jayce borderline squeaks as he immediately lets go of both books to wrap his arms around you. His big, strong arms that are built with muscle from all the time he spends in the forge. Big, strong arms that are wrapped around your waist to stop you from slipping where you're hanging from his shoulders. You almost don’t even notice that he dropped your books, too caught up in the sheer heat radiating off of him. “Are you ok??”

This hadn’t been your plan.

Originally, you had planned to just climb him until you reached the book, but now with your notebook free and one of the two most handsome men at the academy holding you tight…could you really call it a failed plan?

Right. Jayce asked you a question. And he was staring at you in shock. Viktor was doing the same. OK, yeah, time to be normal. You could do that…right?

After untangling yourself from Jayce’s arms and hopping to the ground, you snatch up your notebook and give the boys a sheepish smile.

“Oh geez, no idea what came over me, guys! Probably just hangry, I’ll go grab that lunch now, enjoy the old notes!” You manage to just duck out of the room as both scientists open their mouths to say something. The bang of the lab door slamming shut has never sounded so sweet before.

It’s a herculean task to not replay that awkward interaction over and over in your head. Feeling tortured as it plays through again and again in your mind’s eye, but it almost feels worse when you try to think of anything else.

You shake yourself mentally as you stand in line at the academy’s dining hall. Yes, you’re the world’s most socially inept reporter. BUT at least you grabbed your book and prevented the world from ending via your stupid crush drawings being exposed to said crushes. Flipping to a random page in your book, you nearly drop it when you open to lined paper and a paragraph detailing the top ten most unconventional uses for Hextech.

The book slams shut, your shaking hands doing so on impulse. Quickly you tear the book open to another page, maybe you were seeing things. It’s an interview on Viktor’s work ethic. Another page. A think piece on Jayce’s past and how it led to where he’s at today. Another page and another and another.

You grabbed the wrong book.

From behind you a student clears their throat, asking if you were gonna move up. The dining hall continued to slowly shuffle forward like your entire world didn’t just stop. On autopilot, you stumble to close the gap in the line, muttering some half-assed apology as your mind reels.

The notebook for your reports was here, which could only mean that your sketchbook was left behind with the last two people you’d ever want it to be left with. There’s no chance in hell they aren’t flipping through it right now and laughing over how hopelessly and desperately in love you are.

To your agony, the dining hall line was steadily shortening, even as you do your best to drag your feet the entire way. You were dreading coming back to the lab.

Maybe there was a chance they had opened to a life drawing of Piltover.

Yeah! Maybe they opened to a less damning picture and decided to respect your wishes for your sketchbook to remain untouched. You were worrying over nothing. It’ll all turn out fine in the end. Probably.

—

“Did you really draw all of these yourself??” You hadn’t even been back in the lab for five seconds before Piltover’s golden boy was in your face, holding a head shot of himself that you’d done in graphite last week.

“I quit. Find a new reporter who will pick up your stupid lunches.”

“Oh, Jayce, leave them alone,” Viktor looks entirely too amused where he’s sitting with his legs crossed. Jayce is leaning against the desk to Viktor’s right and flipping excitedly through the pages. “This is obviously personal to them.”

“What? My private sketches that I never let anyone touch? No, go ahead,” You shrug your shoulders, unpacking your bag on Viktor’s other side. The knowing look in his eyes was making you twitch, so you refused to look at either of them.

“These are incredible, Y/N. Seriously, I’m floored,” Jayce gushes, passing the book over to Viktor.

You fight back the urge to throw Jayce’s lunch across the lab and sprint out, never to return. “It’s just drawings, Jayce.” You mutter through gritted teeth. This was like torture. There’s no way in hell they didn’t know you had a crush on the both of them by now.

“Don’t sell yourself short, now,” Viktor hums as he thumbs through the pages and stops at the one you did today. Through the messy bits of his hair that are constantly falling into his eyes, he looks up at you. Almost right through you, honestly. It’s like he can see through your act, the way you play unbothered when you’re nothing but a hot mess inside. His golden eyes are piercing from this close, and when he points back to the drawing, you’re almost relieved at the excuse to look anywhere else. “There’s obviously a lot of passion that goes into these, hm?”

“Stop fucking with me, Viktor,” You grit out, not even pretending to keep yourself busy with the lunches anymore. In your ears you can practically hear all the blood rushing to your head. It’s fucking with your head, you don’t know what Viktor’s up to and you just want the games to be over with. You’re so busy glaring daggers at Viktor that you don’t even notice that Jayce has shifted from his partner’s side to right behind you until he places a gentle hand on your waist.

“Fucking with you? I’ve done nothing of the sort,” Viktor hums. The corner of his mouth twitches up as you jump at Jayce’s touch, and you almost don’t hear him add, under his breath; “Not yet anyways…”

“We just wanted to thank you for all the lovely art work you’ve made of us,” Jayce’s voice comes from directly beside your ear, and you absentmindedly sway backwards. Leaning into where you can feel the heat coming off of him in waves. Good lord, does he always run this hot? You feel like you’re melting. “That ok? You gonna let us thank you?”

“I - well, I wouldn’t say no, but-” It felt like your head was spinning. Jayce was practically snug against your back at this point, Viktor smirking in front of you while watching you slowly lose composure. You try to gather yourself enough for a full sentence, “Wait, I’m sorry. I’m confused. You guys aren’t…weirded out?”

“Of course not,” Viktor assures you as he takes one of your hands and uses the desk to help push himself to his feet. “I like getting to see this side of you. For someone who spends all their time digging into other’s secrets, you aren’t very forthright.”

“Although I kind of wish you had felt comfortable enough to show us yourself. I’m sorry you grabbed the wrong notebook,” Jayce says, pressing a kiss to the top of your shoulder. An action that nearly wipes every thought from your brain clean. There’s absolutely no way this is actually happening. You’re half tempted to pinch yourself.

“I wanted to,” You blurt out, the words surprising you with how much conviction you put into them. Once they were out in the air, you found that you meant them. The words came out easier this time, “I just didn’t know how. Honestly, I just felt like an asshole for assuming you guys were a couple and didn’t want to make things awkward again.”

You can feel more than hear Jayce chuckling behind you. In response, Viktor shoots him a fond look over your shoulder. You’re more than a little bit lost when Viktor makes a noncommittal sound in the back of his throat.

“Ehh, about that.”

“What. What?? Have you two been messing with me this entire time??” You try to turn around in Jayce’s hold, catching a glimpse of his red face before he turns you right back around.

“No, no! Nothing like that!” Jayce reassures you. Huffing and leaning back into where Jayce is standing sturdy and strong behind you, you raise an expectant eyebrow at Viktor. “We really were just friends when you asked if we were dating.”

“It’s just your little comment made the both of us realize we wanted something more than that,” Viktor is staring into your eyes again, although the golden hue’s less piercing this time. His eyes are full of intensity, but less like an interrogation this time and a bit more smug. Like everything was falling into place exactly how he wanted it to.

It took a large amount of restraint to hold back from yelling out a triumphant ‘I KNEW IT!!!’ Instead, you settled on “Oh? And where do I fit into all of this?”

Like a cat who got the canary, Viktor’s smirk widened. Apparently that had been just the right thing to say.

“Where you’ve been fitting in this entire time, my dear,” Viktor purrs, almost closing the gap between you two as he places his hand on your waist, opposite of Jayce’s.

“Right here next to us,” Jayce finishes Viktor’s thought, and you wonder if they rehearsed this beforehand. Not that you had much time to wonder after Jayce started placing a trail of kisses along your shoulder and up the side of your neck, effectively killing any and all brain function you had left.

Your head was still spinning but in some weird way you were growing used to it around your two muses. Fortunately, you’ve been growing fond of their brand of chaos. There wasn’t anybody else in all of Piltover or the Undercity that could leave you reeling like Viktor and Jayce. It was almost suffocating, the heat being generated from where you were stuck between the two of them, but you found yourself rather enjoying the feeling.

Afterall, you’ve always been good with tight spaces.

You met Caitlyn while she was out with a man she called Jayce. She was hovering around him, picking things up and examining them. She asked questions about why he would need certain things while he gave her half answers, probably because of your obvious company.

Eventually she got tired of his not completely honest answers and turned to you. She started asking questions and you answered, asked some of your own. You quickly got on and eventually she started coming in to hang around the shop and occasionally buy things to take home. Then one night it was late and dark and you, used to the dangers of the Undercity, offered to walk her home and she said yes.

It was raining and you were both soaked by the time you arrived at the gated house. Your breath was taken away just by the sight of it. It was huge. All the houses in the era were larger and more fancy than you’d ever seen in your life.

“Well, this is me,” Caitlyn said, tugging at the bottom of her shirt.

“You’ve got a nice house,” you said.

“Yeah, maybe someday you can come inside,” she said, bumping her shoulder with yours. “I should go, my mom’s probably worried.”

“Yeah,” you said, a jealousy prickling your insides.

Caitlyn grabbed your hand and squeezed it. “I actually wanted to ask you a question,” she said. “Do you want to go on a date? You can say no! But I really like you and not in a platonic way but I really also wanna stay friends so you can say no if you think it’s too much or you don’t want to or—“

“I’d love to,” you told her and she smiled.

She brushed some of the hair stuck to her forehead away from it and squeezed your hand. “How about this weekend? Meet me at the bridge?”

“Sounds perfect,” you said.

You went back to the Last Drop with the smallest skip in your step.

“You look happy,” Vander said as you sat down at the counter. “What happened?”

You sat back in your seat. “Can I just be happy?” you asked.

“No, no, of course you can,” he said, moving to grab you a cup and make you a nonalcoholic drink. “Just wondering what made you come in with such a big smile on your face is all.”

You shrugged and looked off to the side. It wasn’t busy tonight. It normally wasn’t when rain was on the forecast, except for the occasional few who came in trying to escape it.

Vander handed you your cup and you took it before you went downstairs to find Vi, Powder, Claggor, and Mylo all sitting, sprawled out over the couches.

“You’re late,” Vi said.

You took a long sip of your drink and spun around as you debated whether or not to tell them before you just blurted it out, “I’ve got a date this weekend.”

Powder was the first to react, sitting straight where she was hunched over the table, a screwdriver and whatever she was working on once in hand now on the table. “What?!” she asked, no anger, simply excitement in her tone.

“You? You got a date?” Mylo asked.

“Congratulations,” Claggor said, “who is it?”

Powder stood up and grabbed your hand. “Can I help you pick out an outfit?” she asked, tugging on your hand once with every word.

“Huh,” Vi said as she relaxed in her chair.

Together, with all their help (Mylo being the least helpful and Ekko heard from Powder and coming in to help), you picked out an outfit. It was your only pair of pants that weren’t covered in patchwork or holes paired with a cropped, sleeveless shirt with frog buttons in a color Claggor and Ekko swore matched your skin tone perfectly and shoes that Vi helped you clean and try to shine. You also let Powder do your hair.

You met Caitlyn at the bridge and she looked at you with eyebrows high, eyes wide, and mouth low as a blush started to fork over her cheeks. She held out her hand and led you into the woods.

“I found this place while I was doing some target practice,” she said.

Eventually you got to a small pond. Caitlyn spread out the blanket she got while you squatted near the water. You put your hand under it and watched it drip off your fingers when you brought it out. You’d never seen water this clean, especially water that hadn’t been run through some piping system.

“This place is beautiful,” you said.

“I know, right?” Caitlyn replied as she started taking foods and drink out of a basket she’d brought. “It’s nice to get away from the cities, all the mechanical stuff and just bask in nature.”

“Yeah,” you said, agreeing absentmindedly as you looked up. You could see the sky, blue and clear, through the small clearing in the trees above you. “It really is.”

Caitlyn stood beside you for a moment. Then she hesitantly grabbed your hand. When you squeezed it, still taking in the sights more than you were processing what was happening, she leaned against you.

“Are you hungry? I brought food.”

You ate the best meal you’d ever had that day in company you enjoyed more than you enjoyed most. You laughed a lot. You smiled so much your cheeks hurt. You felt safe. You’d never felt that before but here, with Caitlyn, you truly, fully felt safe. It was a nice feeling to have.

You went back that night with your head in the clouds and recounted everything to Powder who hung onto your every word and Vi who scoffed and acted like she didn’t care but you could tell she did. You were, after all, the first of the group to go on a real date with someone you liked and who liked you, for now they’d have to live vicariously through you.

It didn’t take long into your tentative relationship for Caitlyn to start sneaking you into her room. It was large. A bed bigger than any you’d seen pressed against the middle of the wall, a dresser beside it, a desk in a different corner, a storage box parallel to it. It was huge.

Eventually though, you got into a habit of sneaking into her room after you were finished working and she’d bring you some of the high quality food prepared for a council member and her family for your own dinner. Occasionally you’d save any sweets she may have brought to give to the others. That was when Mylo finally admitted that maybe you having a girlfriend wasn’t a completely awful thing.

You were sneaking in one night when your foot caught the window and you fell. You muffled your own grunt and stayed still for a moment. You couldn’t hear anything, no footsteps, no talking. Maybe no one heard you.

You righted yourself and brushed off your clothes. You’d been trying to keep your clothes cleaned these past few weeks, if purely because you didn’t want to get Caitlyn’s pretty, expensive things dirty. Maybe it didn’t matter as much to her but just a couple things from her room alone could feed you and your friends for over a month in the Lanes.

You sat down on Caitlyn’s footstool and retied your shoe. It was stupid of you to not have done so earlier. You should know better by now. You did, actually. You should do better. Just because Caitlyn was your girlfriend and an alley didn’t mean everyone in Piltover was.

You shook your head as you finished your retying. Then you stood up.

You rocked back and forth on your heels as you debated what to do with your time spent waiting on Caitlyn. Obviously, it couldn’t be something that would draw attention. It couldn’t be loud or cause a lot of movement.

You sighed.

Then suddenly the door opened and a woman holding a rifle was in your face. You immediately stumbled backward.

Powder running for Vi. An enforcer with a rifle. You ran for her. Tackled her down just as a gunshot rang out. Losing sight of Vi in the process.

“Mom! Wait!” Caitlyn’s voice said as you fell to the ground.

Yelling voices drowned out by the sounds of fighting. Fire everywhere. Smoke filled your lungs. Powder’s hand in yours as you continued to search for Vi.

“She’s a friend. She’s my friend,” Caitlyn said as the sound of hurried footsteps drew closer.

Running towards Violet. A bomb sounded in the distance. She grew closer.

A hand gently touched your shoulder.

You grabbed Vi’s hand and yanked her and Powder out of the main thoroughfare of the fighting.

“Hey, are you okay?” Caitlyn asked. “Talk to me. You’re scaring me.”

A body next you. A body far away. Bodies everywhere. Your parents’ bodies. A broken cry for them to be okay, to wake up, they were scaring you.

Caitlyn called your name and ran her hands up and down your arms.

Your name being said, distant, so distant. A hand on your arm guiding you away.

Caitlyn’s hands cradled your face, wiping away tears you hadn’t processed fall. “Hey, it’s okay. You’re safe, I promise. You're with me.”

“You’re safe here with me, kid. It’s all over now. I promise.”

Caitlyn’s hand grabbed your own and held it to her chest. Your fingers twitched as you could feel her heartbeat, her chest rise and fall.

“Breathe with me,” she said before doing an over exaggerated breath.

“Breathe, kid. Breathe.”

You copied her best you could.

Slowly but surely you calmed down and she held you close. “It’s okay, you’re safe with me,” she said and you believed her. Surrounded by stuffy Piltover things, you believed her.

You slowly wrapped your arms around her and held her just as close. You breathed in the smell of pine trees and nuzzled your head against soft fabric.

“Do you want me to walk you home?” she asked.

“Please,” you said, voice broken.

She helped you up and you almost numbly suggest that she change, don’t want people to know that a Pilty is down in the Lanes. She dressed down as best as she could and dragged you through her front door, past her mom who she glared at and her dad who looked at you with sympathy you didn’t care to see.

For the first time, you led her to your home. Down the mineshaft and through the streets until you got to the Last Drop. You held her hand tightly the entire time and no one gave you trouble, recognizing you as one of Vander’s kids or not seeing you as prime mugging targets.

You opened the door to the Drop and Vander looked up immediately. His brows furrowed with worry and he stepped out from behind the counter.

“Hey, what’s wrong?” he asked, pulling you aside and letting you drag Caitlyn along with you.

You didn’t say anything, just used your free arm to hug him. He hugged you back hesitantly, carefully, so gently. Caitlyn squeezed your hand.

“I should probably go,” she said when you pulled away.

“Nonsense,” Vander said. “It’s dangerous at the best of times. Wait until morning at least. Come on, let’s get you downstairs.”

Vander didn’t go back up until he saw you in the care of Vi and Powder who you immediately drew into hugs. You pulled Caitlyn into your bed with the duo of sisters and cuddled up to her while Powder and Vi settled next to you. Powder with her head laying on your thigh and Vi with her hand on your ankle.

Caitlyn gingerly wrapped her arms around your torso and rested her head against yours.

“I love you,” she said in a quiet voice. “You don’t have to say it back. I just wanted you to know.”

You hugged her back tighter and fell asleep with her in your arms and the tight feeling in your heart just a little bit looser.

[hexhomos]

im curious to know your thoughts on viktor's biography saying jayce was nothing more than an inconvenience. how do you handle him saying they were never friends? was this because of piltoverians superiority or? (correct me if im wrong but i cant remember if you touched on that)

A friend of mine once said a catastrophic breakup has the unforeseen consequence of tainting everything that came before it in the harsh, abrasive light of the fresh argument, and after that initial damage is done it’s hard to pick out how the memories *really* were. No matter how positive. You begin to doubt, re-read and re-write what happened, so the ultimate split "makes sense."

This may not even be a conscious process half of the time! But jokes about crazy-ex-girlfriends exist for a reason, and I believe that reason might be a surplus of unwarranted crazy-ex-girlfriend stories that are told after the dissolution of every messy relationship. You need a clear Right and a clear Wrong. Rationalizing your behavior as “only logical, in the face of irrationality,” is a defense mechanism. It’s not a pretty one, but it boils down to this: avoidance of guilt, rejection of any criticism you may consider too true, the reshaping of your narrative so *you* are the one in control, the winner, the guy who’s closing the debate with the perfect comeback, one thought up in the shower 12 hours after the fact.

Viktor lies a lot. By omission, exaggeration, negligence and a sense of dwindling pride. Jayce is simultaneously unstoppably unjust and a worm-man that could be crushed beneath his heel; an insufferable viktor never chose for himself! Who is, at the same time, somehow, his work partner of years, actively by his side right up until his last project - or until he's had enough. And the dissonance is the point. This is an image that has been warped so much in editing you can see the smudgy click and drag marks in the surroundings. 

I do think Jayce and Viktor were friends, and this is an assertion I make without doubt. Viktor calls jayce his old friend when the plea benefits him, this is corroborated by how positively Jayce's bio speaks about Viktor, even while criticizing his methods.

Jayce is indifferent to nearly everyone he meets, he says so himself, in his opening paragraphs; if he really was so Out There To Get Viktor And Ruin His Life &/Or Reputation- what fucking reason does he have to defend Viktor's honor after he's proved himself to be unstable and aggressive? If their relationship was nonexistent, sour, or predicated exclusively in rivalry or animosity, why does Viktor ask for Jayce to join him in his grand plan, after years of alleged cold war? What reason is there for Jayce to apologize and still extend him an out after Viktor sinks his head in with a giant crystal? What reason is there for him to even disclose doing that? (what reason is there for Jayce to call Viktor petnames after multiple direct attempts on his life???? LOL)

To put it mildly. If we are to take Viktor’s POV by his word (imagine he is being honest,) and see this as a straightforward detached revenge story about prejudice or jayce’s unreasonable hero complex or piltover carelessly wanting to trump over zaun or whatever - why doesn’t Jayce’s side of the story simply call him a cunt and move on? He has all the setup to prop himself as the true hero, but he doesn’t. Like Bon points out here, Jayce’s bio doesn’t even bring up that Viktor is a Zaunite. Not Once. There is no stereotypical city grudge casting him in a bad light. The information is implicit: they talk about Zaun, extensively, but Viktor’s ideas and standing and existence are what you know him by, not some undercity-dwelling boogeyman. If anything, Jayce self-deprecates far more frequently than Viktor does, and makes a sustained effort to poke holes on the audience’s perception of him being a ‘valiant hearted hero’ of any kind. He dont give a fuck. He doesn't want this title. He did not pick it. He is not choosing to represent this city. He has other, better, palpable things to care about. Namely his work, and generally ‘preventing people from being made into fucking zombies’. Jayce doesn’t want you to think that he is right(eous), but that what is happening is wrong.

If I take a step back from text interpretation here and tell you what I personally gather from it, Opinion Wise, it's this: Viktor is concerned with presenting you with a tragic fable because he has an ideology to sell. The revisions and concessions he makes along the way are for the ultimate purpose of crafting a legend. And sometimes that requires humility. He needs the rationalization to make sense of every single bad thing that has ever happened in his life; and in his way there he also tends to mix up one sore spot with the other, like they're all this elaborate multi-step prank destiny sprung on him, like every single other person in his life has been Lowkey Conspiring Against Him, so you can eventually agree to this:

Humans suck, right? We agree humans suck, right, guys? I mean wouldn't we love it if humans didn't suck? Thats Why I Came Up With A Solution!! THE NEURALINK. - Viktor. (note: whenever there's a mention of the student body, swap it with 'Jayce' to see how the motivation builds up. Viktor makes an effort to omit him whenever possible anyway)

He's kind of at the end of his rope. This is his last ditch effort to build himself back up.

Generally speaking, the opposite goes for Jayce. He frontloads his statement with mentions of how he is a huge dipshit, unabashedly so, to get really at the meat of things: He thinks Viktor's preaching is fucking bogus, but the point is that guy used to be his friend. That guy used to be someone he knew! That guy was brilliant at what he did, even, but something went really terribly wrong down the line and it's frankly fucked up that it happened. But nobody really cares nor can they fully understand, because as Jayce previously stated, maybe everyone else is kind of fucking stupid, so he has to fix things on his own. (Jayce doesn't have any 'I stand for justice and righteousness and the american way,' comeback prepared to rebuke Viktor's speeches. That sentence could make him barf. He just has very strong feelings about where the line is drawn, and he’s not going to wait for the worst case scenario before doing something.)

I do think that more than anything else, It’s important (and telling) that both of their bios admit to them being deeply hurt by their falling-out. Jayce calls it ‘growing more insular’, Viktor calls it ‘traumatic’, there are attempts to patch things back up on either side (even if a bit tilted, even if the propositions don’t work) Viktor regrets trusting anyone at all, so he covers it up with detachment. Jayce regrets not having enough faith to communicate anything, when he could have, so he tries his best to own up to every present or imagined failure in his way towards improvement.

Of course Viktor would describe Jayce as inconvenient. Viktor is one of the many perceived past failures Jayce is desperately trying to do damage control for. And if he *can’t* change Viktor’s mind, well. At least Jayce can stand in his way and be really, really annoying.

#Jayvik #Vikjayce #jayce giopara #viktor league of legends #jayce league of legends #Viktor lol #Jayce lol #Lesgue of legends #Legends of runeterra #Hexposts #meta tag #LOR #'legends of runeterra is arguably a side canon' Yes But none of the LOR content pertaining to vkjc directly contradicts their concepts #If anything it is literally the closest we get to character-world integration for them #And they are both depicted as considerably more put together than the immediate chaos of their bios (thanks to LOR being set After All that

This story takes place before ACT 3 of Arcane.

Words: Idk im on mobile

Warnings: None

Anyways Enjoy <3

_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_•_

Hailie is an inspiriting scientist and Astronomer. She grew up in zaun along her 5 other siblings. Not knowing if she was going to eat the next day or not. She was raised as a girl to stand up for herself. Her older brother was someone you can depend on and look up to. Before she joined the academy in piltover she was a mechanic helping Benzo and little man(Ekko). As she built herself up she became an assistant to Mel who had a spot in the council. Secretly she studied Jayce and Viktor on their inventions. She was highly jealous of her cousin Sky Young as she was their assistant. But that didn’t stop her from taking a liking to the skinny guy with a limp.

“Guys! Guys! Im here! Im so sorry my clock didn’t go off!!” Hailie yelled as she entered the room where jayce and viktor think and put together their inventions. Hailie was fortunate enough to be called in to assist when sky was either sick or had something going on and wasn’t available. “Hails please we talked about this” Jayce signs as he runs a hand down his face in frustration “Dont call me hails” Hailie slightly gritted through her teeth. “Its okay hailie. As long as you’re safe” Viktor says as he throws a quick smile towards her. Butterflies erupted in her stomach as she looked away tucking a lose pink loc behind her ear. “Here takes these to Heimerdinger” viktor says shoving a few rolls of paper into her arms. Hailie nods her head and runs out the room. Progress Day is in two days.

~-~-~-~-~-~

“HAPPY PROGRESS DAY!!” Hailie yells into the room as her and sky enters. Hailie throwing confetti and sky holding a champagne bottle and 4 glasses. “No no please we are working Heimerdinger would be here in a bit” Viktor says shooing the girls away with his hand “Oh come on just one glass we have a some time” jayce says as he grabs two glasses and sky pops the bottle open and begins to pour “Okay okay just one glass” viktor says putting his pen down. Jayce hands everyone a glass. “Here’s to progress” sky says lifting her glass up “And here’s to a bright future” Jayce agrees and we all clink our glasses together and drink. “Okay now get out i need to focus” Viktor says playfully. Hailie collects the now dirty glasses and sky grabs the bottle.

Hailie looks around a corner as Heimerdinger leaves the study room of jayce and viktor. Jayce leaves shorty after “Ill be back viktor” jayce says before closing the door. Hailie hides deeper in the shadows as jayce zooms past her. Once he was out of sight hailie does a quick pace to the large door. “Hey vik doing anything right now? No no stupid” she says to herself “Hey vik. You’re free im free. No what are we slaves dang it!” Hailie says running a hand through her hair. She takes a deep breath before opening the door. In the center of the room sat viktor scribbling away on paper. “Hey viktor!” She said m, viktor takes a peek behind him before going back to his paper “Hello Hailie” he says, hailie Tubs her arm a bit “So…what are you doing for progress day?” She asks “this” viktor replies. “Oh fun. I was… I was wondering if you wanted to join me at the fair before jayce has to do this speech tonight” hailie says taking a few steps towards “no no I shouldn’t. I cant! I have to finish” viktor says shaking his head and turns a bit to look at her “Oh please you can finish that later or even tomorrow!” She says throwing her hands up “You see! You see! I cant!” Viktor says using his hands to show her his paperwork that is scattered over the desk “yes you can crippled. Now come on!” Hailie says grabbing his arm and pulling him out of his seat viktor rushes to grab his cane and catch up with hailie as she pulls him at the speed of light out the door “Ah slow down i can go but so fast” viktor says as the door closes behind him.

~

The fair is busy and full of people, tents and food. Hailie and viktor has visted about three tents already. “Ahhh lets go check out that one” hailie says pointing to a tent that is selling merchandise. The two walk over. As hailie is listening to the vendor talk about the product viktor gets stuck behind a couple of people. He slowly back away and turns around to leave he gets a few feet before he looks down and sees hailie standing directly in front of him “so where you going?” She says a smile on her face. “Look hails i have to get back to the lab… im not really a peoples person….” Viktor says “please just stay with me. I hate being alone out here” hailie says as she walks around viktor and slides her arm through his and uses her other hand to hold his arm. “Oh how can i say no to you” viktor smiles then chuckles “fine but i have to go an hour before the grand speech” he says as they continue walking.

(Note: what comes to mind during this part is the movie tangled when rapunzel and flynn ryder are walking around the small town during her birthday celebration)

~

“Gosh i can’t believe he didn’t showcase our invention” Viktor says as he paces around the lab. Hailie sits in his chair a leg up and watching him. “Maybe he was nervous” she says “Jayce? Nervous? Ha!” Viktor says looking at hailie before he continues his pace around the room. “Hey want to come to my place? There is still some time to celebrate progress day. I asked Sky but she said she was tired” hailie says Turing towards the desk and spinning in the chair a bit “I guess… no! Yeah…yeah i could. I need to take my mind off things right now” viktor says sighing and looking out the window above. “Great! Lets go” hailie says getting up and walking to the door.

“Welcome to my lovely home” hailie says as she opens the door and shows her place that is not surprisingly not clean but also not dirty. “Sorry about the mess. My brother was in and we had a little too much fun” she says picking up the darts off the floor and putting them in the box they was once in. “Feel free to sit anywhere” she says closing the door as viktor made his way into the apartment. “It’s not too bad honestly” he says as he takes a seat on her couch and puts his cane next to him “wine?” She asks makings her way into the kitchen “sure” he says looking at the books on her coffee table. “This is the only one i have its 365 Strawberry Semi Sweet Wine Armenia” she says as she walks into the living room reading the label “yes thats fine” viktor says looking up at her. “She so beautiful. Why didn’t i see this before? Other than jayce she pays attention to me and shows that she cares” he thinks to himself as he watches her pour their cups “no no let me” he says as he grabs the bottle gently his hand grazing hers temporarily. They look at each other before he pulls away and finishes pouring the drink.

“Ah hahaha really and it worked!” Hailie laughs as she listens to viktor tell her a story about the boat he made when he was younger. “Yes! Yes! I thought it would sink on the first try but it stood perfectly” he says grabbing the wine bottle pour himself another glass. “Huh empty” he says looking at the bottle “wow you are amazing viktor” she says wiping her eye as a tear from laughing too hard falls. She looks up to see viktor standing up with his cane and walking over to the couch that hailie is occupying. “No. You’re amazing hails.” He says “I don’t know why it took me so long to see you. The way you care and how concentrated you are in your work.” He says reaching up to tuck a loc behind her ear “Today at the fair. I think that i have fallen in love with you. Im always so focused in my work no matter what is happening” he says “But you. You are starting to be important to me” he says leaning forward a bit their faces inches away “You’re important to me too vik” hailie says, the two slowly gets closer. Fireworks erupt. Their lips clash against another. Viktor buries his hand in her hair using his free hand to keep him upright.

Take my whole life, too For I can't help falling in love with you.

Plays in the background as they kiss deeper and deeper. Viktor don’t know what came over him as he pulls her closer and kisses her neck and back to her lips. Hailie puts a hand on his chest to stop him. “That’s enough for now pretty boy” Hailie says running a hand through his hair and cupping his cheeks. “I love you viktor” she says, he reaches up holding her wrist “and i love you too Hails” he says kissing her cheek. “I cant help falling in love with you” Viktor whispers.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

And that’s that. I don’t think I did anything good with this story. Might make another part with some sky and hailie rivalry still thinking. I has rewatched Arcane like 10times this week. Season two needs to hurry up. Ugh!!!

hope hope hope ... just dont break jayjay's heart :( i feel like jayce is the type to let hope lead bc if he says no i dont want things to change it might feel like hes trying to control her (hes not hes just being honest!).

Remember when they were in her apartment in MtK and he straight up told her if he ever gets in the way she should tell him that? So that's just him in general. He's selfless in a way and will move aside to let his love's light shine. We stan.

She has a distinguished degree in communications so imma need her to use every skill she has during this little talk ....

don't play with me Hope Diamond Darryn...

[vhvrs]

im genuinely confused, why refer to a character you 'made' trans with she/her pronouns?

i say 'made' because they seem like OCs that use league lore?

im asking out of genuine curiosity, sorry if this is mean

its a fair question, no worries!

its... kinda hard to explain and i haven't prior bc while i use she/her (and they/them) for my vik, i generally dont care nor want to tell anyone what to refer to them as bc the original point of my viktor was that they do not clarify their pronouns or gender bc they dont care. i just... kindve went off on my own thing a bit lol.

so that's one reason ig?

my academy viktor is also intended to be this really tricky period where they know they arent cis but arent willing nor in a space to explore it further than through jayce. she/her has a level of safety when coming fully out is scary and, again, dont really want to think abt it too hard. on top of her only real means of exploring being trans being through jayce alone in their dorm n hes already seeing them as transmasc despite presentation and pronouns so a need to explore further isnt really a priority.

another reason that trying to deconstruct the gender behind certain things like pronouns can just feel really good. she/her can be feminine or it can be masculine or it can be neither! viktor and jayce have that understanding n i mean me as the guy behind it does too lol. (n my mh using it is just extending that safety n gendervoid further now that they have a body they feel more comfortable in and can wear that she/her w a sort of pride? something thats now hers to do with whatever and bc by then most ppl default to he/they so she/her becomes something no longer normative and able to become unattached to their afab. she can weaponize she/her now in a way they only got to test out as pre-herald?)

another, another reason is tldr i was a really awkward she/they transmasc when i first came out n it feels good to explore what that felt like through viktor, you know? (that was my original intention for her at all actually...) n get more comfortable in still being a kindve gnc they/he through a character who took their afab scenerio to the furtherest it can go and let it remain a valid agender thing. that kindve tints a lot of why i do that i guess + being in very... genderfuckery free for all spaces where this stuffs just very normal.

i usually tend to go out here to a certain extent with characters i relate to or like ie making them nonbinary, changing pronouns, and presentations (making them into ocs rip not denying the oc with league paintover allegations) this is just an extra step for me personally to have a safe, contained space to explore gender stuff myself... its a nice feeling to have created a scenerio where she/her doesnt void being transmasc/agender or can... idk enhance it even?? idk im not trying to reflect the nauces of reality rn im just trying to have fun.

this is v long winded bc im tired n felt this needed a proper explanation so. thank you if you understand this and i appreciate you asking bc id rather ppl just ask vs possibly get more confused not knowing my intentions n mindset. take care ♡

#me when i drop this horribly ooc thing tomorrow #sorry sorry #but yeah idm answering questions abt stuff im doing like this i understand ppl arent orivy to the wheels churning/my 4am private twt rants #also just enjoy gender play n the scenerios vik n jayce can end up in bc of them #also ngl she/they discourse was frankly really disrespectful n annoying last yr in a way that made me reflect on being a former one #n tyen boom viktor.

I have to get this out somewhere

For Arcane season 2 I dont think anyone in the council building is gonna die. Alleast anyone important.

For Jayce, Viktor, and Mel all of them had just had a charater act of some sort.

Jayce had just made a big decision to make peace with Zuen and trust Silco and to start and fight in a war

Viktor had connected to the hex core and has shimmer along with his arm, leg and sickness. Also if anyone found out and explaining it to them. [Mostly Jayce]

Mel had just connected with her mother again and decided that she no longer want to be connted to her family by taking her ring off at the end.

I don't think that Arcane would cut off a charater acts like that unless they do just for the plot.

Th only other is caitlyns mother which I dont think will die either.

In the trailer with the voice lines for Caitlyn, Vi, and Jinx we hear what sounds like Vi and Cait talking about what happened and how to catch Jinx. Caitlyn doesn't sound angry or mad at jinx in her line. I think that if her mom did die that she would be more angry or more vengeful to get jinx.

I do say that some on the council will die because Vi does say something along the lines of 'no one else needs to get hurt' and she could be talking about people in the council dieing.

That's all :]

Do you think that Vander sometimes slips into his overprotective Dad vibe with his omega children? If so, what’s that like? Obviously he loves and protects them all, but for the Omega ones he feels extra protective. I imagine Silco would probably call him on it and say it was sexist as fuck. But he Silco also understands (a bit) because of how be feels about the power imbalance in Jayce and Viktor’s relationship.

Any of the kids try to date, and everyone is like “no way, your parents are the Hound and Silco, we’re too scared to date you” So thats why they sneak into piltover where they can be a bit more anonymous

I think it's less about Vander going into a protective mode and more how he comes off with social/cultural biases. Because Vadner is generally quite protective of his children from Outside The Family Threats (Inside The Family Threats are a bit more fine 'just don't kill each other and older ones don't use the fact you're bigger to bully the younger ones'). But when he's being protective of his omega children people see it as Protective Alpha Over His Omega Pups while when he's protective of his alpha children they more see it as being protective of all his kids.

Also doesn't help that Claggor at least finds the least threatening possible person to date. And Vi is a serial dater before she meets Cait (and even that starts as a 'oh it's just a bit of fun' until they both catch feelings) so Vander's a little bit more worried about her hurting the other peron's feelings. I will say because I tend to go with Powder/Jinx ending up with Ekko he's pretty chill generally there too because he knows Ekko, Ekko's a good kid (and before that she's a bit similar to her sister but doesn't so much date the people as... tease them to get them to do what she wants/get them into trouble). So it's very much Mylo (and Viktor if included) who probably gets Scary Dad around his dates because he's dating people Vander feels might need to be reminded of the whole situation they're fucking with if they do fuck with his boy.

It does help that Vander is kind of an intimidating presence generally. So he doesn't really have to put on a Scary Alpha Dad act for people to get the message that they whould not fuck with his kids.

Of course that feeds into the fact that it is really hard for their kids to try and date. Because there is absolutely a percentage of the Zaun population that dont' want to date them because they're terrified of their parents. And there's also the part of the Zaun population who only want to date them because of who their parents are (trying to get in to the wealth and power of the family). And those remaining isn't a huge pool. Meanwhile in Piltover it's only very few who actually recognise and care about the family they come from so they feel like their parents shadow less looms over their dating life (and of course Vi (and Viktor) manage to date one of the people from that small pool oops).

I will say the closest Vander probably gets the most often is with alphas around the bar who hit on his kids before realising they're... his kids. Mostly because they're like 25+ year olds hitting on a teenager. So it's less about the designation and more about the age (just he sees it more with with alphas hitting on his omega kids than the other way around). The kids all hate it because they can look after themselves. But honestly it's more to do with the 25+ year old hitting on a teenager generally than them hitting on his kids (just the fact that it its his kids invovled makes it piss him off that bit more).

WILL work twice as hard #While Vander is more Be The Change You Want To See #He thinks omegas should be treated equally #so he tries his best to treat the omegas around him (including his children) #equally to the alphas around him

Nana you got me thinking since you confirmed that Jayce and Rory are related do both of them have the same mother but different fathers or are they cousins?

Have you been stalking me?... /hj

I mean, I guess it's not that much a secret anymore. I have been obsessed with foreshodwing their relationship for a while now...

Rory and Jayce are half brothers. You guessed right! They do have the same mother and different fathers.

Jayce is the younger one by 4 years haha. (Sounds crazy ik)

Jayce's father is a man with great wealth and even better connections. His father is kind and very giving, but didn't pay attention to Jayce or Rory a lot due to business and emotional immaturity.

Rory's father is a vampire who had somewhat of a fling with his mother, but has not been apart of Rory's life for the most part. Rory's father hangs around the city playing around with humans. He really only cares about his own needs and wants.

Their mother is... a mess to least the least. Not saying that her sons dont love or care about her because she was terrible. They have a lot of complications in their relationship with their mother, but still go out of their way to check up on her.

Rory is the one who goes silent on her most of the time, but he does answer her calls.

Jayce's father has custody of him, but his parents have agreed on a weekly basis of exchange.

Their mother has custody of Rory, so he never really had to go back and forth like Jayce had to.

Arcane Boys and how How they react seeing you in crisis

────────────────

Note: This is my first hc and first post in English after 5y out, sorry if it have errors. Pls enjoy 💕

Viktor

First of all, he just didn't expected seeing you in that way, crying out your lungs and almost taking off your hair, so he just stops working for a few seconds thinking in what he have to do.

When he come back to his mind and body, he tries to hold your arms, looking inside your eyes trying to make you stop, forcing you to look at him, even with a chance of being slapped or something like that

"Please! Breathe deep, close hour eyes and try to breathe dear... I'm here for you..."

He waits you to calm down and then hugs you against his chest, cuddling with your hair till you relax, even a little nervous yet.

"Want to tell me what happened...?"

────────────────

Jayce

He maybe starts to "Yell" at you, trying to make you stop and answering him about what happened.

Seeing that he just fucked all even more, he would approach you to his arms, shaking a little but would do it with no hesitation.

Maybe he get some slaps, but didn't mind, he deserved. Waited until you relax to say something.

"Look am... I'm sorry babe... I-I didn't mean to..."

He kisses your forehead and take you to a bathtub, so you can relax a bit more and explain later him what happened.

────────────────

Silco

This man knows exactly what to do.

When he saw you almost destroying his room, he almost yelled but fast noticed your crying.

He sighed and then looked for you on the place, finding you under his desk, bowing towards you.

"Come hear my dear..." then reaches his hand so you can hold him

He takes you in his arms, sitting on his chair and leaving you lay down on him, waiting patiently for you while he cuddles you.

"You don't have to tell me if you dont want to..." he whispered softly at your ear, kissing your head after.

"Jinx got some icecream on the bar, you can take it if you want... ok?" This man knows how to helps someone ho needs

────────────────

Ekko

He knows what was happening, he saw it before sometimes but not with you

When you through he was going to help you, you saw he running away, it started all over again, thinking he left you came a rage feeling

"I'm here, I'm here..." he puts his hand on your back and then takes you on his shoulder.

"I brought you some water... drink it." He puts the glass closer to your hands and you drink it slowly and shaking

"It's ok, ok? You got it... it's all right" He looks away waiting you to calm down, while bouncing back and forward softly, "Wanna take a ride later? You don't have to tell me what happened... it's ok."

────────────────

Singed

Singed knows how the human brain works, so, seeing you breaking down everything doesn't make him move

He just see you there, waiting to you to let the feelings go out, while he stands in the door.

You calm down and clean up your face, looking at your side just to see singed besides you, hanging a towel for you

"Better?" Yiu nods, then he completes "Good. Now..." he walks back to his seat and opens a drawer, waiting you to approach him.

"Go eat something on the market" he gives you a bit of money, enough to buy something from Jericho, "Would this make you feel better?" - "y-yes..." - "Then, have fun sweetheart."

He doesn't ask what happend, and my his manner of act, he doesn't care the matter of your crisis, he just wanna se you ok.

ppl shipping ths arcane scientist guys was i think one of the most insulting pair two background men together and somehow make it one of the most popular ships if it kills us ive seen in a while is what im getting at and it just like REMINDED me of pacific rim in that that was also ppl shipping two scientist guys cuz they were There. even if i am not compelled n frankly would probably not have paid any mind to their Moments in pacific rim tho i kind of get it, but arcane is just. id need 2 rewatch but.. youve seen it u know. jayce is a nothing of a man and his cishet guy vibes permeate everything. i dont even say that bcuz i necessarily dislike him hes just There and its a Thing. jayce is straight and water is wet

#if u dont think hes sstraight thats fine but i will not understand. #anyway i have 2 b clear i saw ppl ship the arcane guys against my will i didnt go looking. at first i was surprised #n then i thought why am i surprised.

[drawingway]

we can have a full cishet relationship with characters with half interactions to justify their relationship, but the lgbt one who has in game interactions (in every damn game they are) and events (im looking at you wild rift) needs to justify its existence for you just because you dont like gals hold hands a flirting with each other. plz

#mimimi mel is using jayce mimimi #jayce and mel needed only to breath the same air to jump on each others private parts #vi and cait needs a 5 years background 2 assassinations one war a the approve of their parents just so ppl can shut up about it omg #leave the gals alone #it was sweat and fluffy and we could feel the chemistry and pining #and dont you say to me i dont care! #they needed nothing to be together and no one questions that like they question caitxvi #vi #vi league of legends #caitlyn #caitlyn league of legends #vi x caitlyn #jayce league of legends #mel arcane #arcane #arcane league of legends #league of legends

"Things that would get the arcane characters embarrassed/flustered"- headcanons pleaaaase! <3

a/n: ooo yes i need something lighthearted!!

warnings: none <3

Jinx

🕷 Jinx gets flustered easily when it comes to you, it doesn't matter how small the act might've been

🕷 But of the things that really gets her feeling shy is when you gently pinch her cheeks when she's being annoying before kissing them

🕷 The first time you did it, she just started at you for a few moments like ???

🕷 You don't pinch her enough for it to hurt, obviously, it's more like a love squeeze

🕷 You make a habit of doing it more just to see her cheeks and nose turn pink

Vi

🕷 I can see Vi being the type of person who's like 'i don't get embarrassed/flustered so dont even try it'

🕷 but she does <3

🕷 It's a very small thing and you don't even realize when you're doing it because it's just so natural for you to do at this point

🕷 Vi thinks she should be used to it by now but every time your hand runs up against her muscular arms, whether that's when you're sleeping or doing stuff around the house and wanting to give Vi acknowledgment

🕷 She gets goosebumps every time

Caitlyn

🕷 She's talking about her day when she notices you staring at her lovingly

🕷 "what's wrong?"

🕷 "nothing, i just like the sound of your voice~"

🕷 Her eyebrows raise at your confession accompanying a light blush

🕷 Of course she loves the sound of your voice as well but it was specifically the way you said it and the way you looked at her that made her feel flustered

Ekko

🕷 Ekko likes to make you things in his spare time

🕷 It's usually a small robotic sculpture or jewelry, like bracelets or necklaces

🕷 So whenever he comes over your place and sees all the small sculptures he's made you neatly lined up in order or sees you wearing a bracelet he made you, he starts to feel really hot and stumbles on his words a bit

🕷 He finds it very endearing that you keep all the things he's made you because no one has really ever done that for him

Viktor

🕷 When you affectionately ruffle his hair passing by his desk or when you lean your chest against his back to whisper something in his ear

🕷 "you're doing a good job, maybe you should take a break"

🕷 He knows that you said it in an innocent way but you gently squeezing his shoulder isn't helping

🕷 Things like that make him flustered and unfocused

🕷 Whenever you notice the small blush on the tip of Viktor's ears, you can't help but giggle which only makes him blush harder

Jayce

🕷 He came home upset from work one day, not even bothering to say hello before locking himself in his office

🕷 When you came to check on him and listened to his concerns and frustrations, you eventually walked up to him and placed your hands on both of his cheeks

🕷 Jayce couldn't tell if it was because he was already feeling a ton of emotions in that moment or if it was because your soft hands were tenderly cupping his face, your thumbs rubbing his cheekbones, while you looked up at him with such love in your eyes

🕷 He could tell he was blushing from how hot his face and neck felt and quickly cleared his throat before gently taking your hands off his face and pulling you into a hug

🕷 He did want to hug you but it was also to hide his embarrassment

🕷 Now, whenever you put your hand on one of his cheeks or both, he can't help but remember that moment and starts blushing

Silco

🕷 You might be thinking it's when you wear a piece of jewelry or make yourself nice and pretty for him, but it isn't

🕷 It's when you indulge him, play with his hair, praise/compliment him

🕷 He's pretty good at not showing his embarrassment though whenever you call him handsome or run your hands through his hair when there isn't gel in it

🕷 It's only when he's off guard do you really see how flustered he gets

🕷 Do it when he's not expecting you, when he thinks you're sleeping but you come into his office while he's doing paper work and comment on how handsome and professional he looks with a cigar in one hand and a paper in the other

🕷 The somewhat surprised look with blush that's just barely visible on his cheeks is very much worth it

[caspercryptid]

What are the biggest donts when writing Viktor in fics? And what are your thoughts on him becoming the Machine Herald? Asking as an abled person for a disabled person’s perspective

Okay so I've written a couple posts here on disability and representation in general but here's my shortlist! Understand that if any writers reading this have done any of the following it's not a value judgement and I can only speak for myself and my immediate community, make your own best judgments and remember you can always edit your own stuff if you messed up and it's NBD! Okay onto the list.

1. Understand that jayce/a partner taking his cane away is the equivalent of stealing someone's legs and it is not cute or funny and should not be taken lightly

2. Writing him being picked up and carried everywhere or otherwise physically restrained "for his own good" is infantilizing and bad.

3. If it's something you'd do to a toddler, it's probably not cute. People feeding Viktor is not cute. People wiping his mouth with a napkin is not cute.

4. I have a Long post about it up there but Viktor does not have poor self esteem canonically and writing him with overexaggerated self hatred is, while not always, usually ableist.

5. Writing him lashing out at Jayce for not taking better care of him or otherwise stopping his entire life because Viktor is sick or dying is both miserable to read from an abled person and also not realistic. Viktor does not need to be taken care of nor does he want to be babied. He's an adult with the ability to make his own decisions.

6. Do not have him refer to himself as crippled (derogatory) or "Broken". Especially not broken. Literally every time I see that word in fics my entire soul leaves my body. Cripple is a reclaimed slur and I would prefer abled people not use it but I understand that he uses it canonically, if you are GOING to use it, understand that it's a word used for other people's perspective on him or as a joke or a self identifier used to make abled people deliberately uncomfortable. It's like a gay person calling themselves by the f slur. Understand that that word HITS.

As for the machine herald... I have more complicated feelings.

Fundamentally, I think it's important to understand that Viktor is.... Wrong? Viktor is wrong. Viktor is incorrect. Viktor's whole shit about ascending beyond humanity and sacrificing emotion is based in the feelings of a deeply wounded man making an emotional decision by claiming he's making a rational one. He can prattle on about his physical limitations all he wants, that's not what this is about. The thing is his approach... Does. In fact. Smell a little bit like eugenics. The insistence on fixing disability and human weakness via ascending to machine Does In Fact Smell A Little Like Eugenics.

The problem with discussing this in depth is that the idea of cyborgs as either a tool of capitalism to Fix disabled people or as a form of empowerment by disabled people is an extensive academic debate on which some very intelligent people have written and if I start quoting Donna haraway at people we will rapidly lose the thread of the discussion (especially bc I don't agree with Haraway) so here is the upshot: you know how women will decide that it's empowering to do things that are exactly what society wants them to do anyway like wear an entire full face of conventional makeup, shave their legs and armpits, and wear heels? That's the problem with machine herald. He has absolutely every right to make these decisions about what's right for himself, but he's making them under enormous pressure by society to do so, and in making them for other people risks losing what empowerment he found in them.

Now, that being said, I'm going to immediately undermine my own point and say that if I could have robot legs I would probably chop my own legs off on a bad pain day. So here's like.... The distinction, and a kind of way to approach it— fundamentally, you have to treat it as the creation of accomodations, not "fixes". Cures for poisoning and Viktor's lung conditions do not count under this category by the way I'm gonna focus for a moment on physical disability, illness is another subject. If your leg is messed up and you can't walk on it properly, you build a brace, if you have it amputated, you get a prosthetic, no prosthetic is going to entirely be the same as having the leg. Prosthetics exist in real life and advancing them with science is fine so long as you understand that it's DIFFERENT. The goal for disabled people should be accommodating specific needs rather than Being Abled. You don't say "I want to be normal" you say "I want to be able to grab that fucking thing off that high shelf" the latter is good and fine and realistic. If you write the first sentence I'm going to hunt you for sport.

This was very long winded but fundamentally what I feel about the machine herald is that Viktor is deeply deeply mentally ill because fundamentally happy healthy people don't start chopping all their limbs off and trying to scoop out their emotions with a soup spoon. This man is having a spiralling mental breakdown and disguising it as a new philosophy on life. That philosophy is... To use a buzzword. Problematic. So usually when I write him augmenting himself I'm pretty careful about it? But other people have different takes on this! It's an extremely complicated subject. But in the original lore, Viktor is just straight up wrong, and I feel like a lot of people gloss the fact that in the original lore Viktor stuck probes in workers brains in order to force them to work more efficiently without getting scared of unsafe working conditions and Jayce (justifiably) went "hey what the FUCK"

So tl;dr I don't like the machine herald philosophy but Viktor is mentally unwell and also the suit's a mobility aid not a cure for disability. I'm out of spoons! I hope this was illuminating.
