Summary
For twenty years, Henry of Skalitz was forgotten—buried in darkness, bound in rusted chains, waiting for rescue that never came.
Hans Capon never stopped looking for Henry—never stopped chasing ghosts, never stopped losing hope, never stopped failing. And now, his son has done what he could not.
Heinrich expected to find a prisoner. Instead, he found a ruin of a man—too frail to stand, too lost to recognize his own name. He takes Henry, carries him into the world he once knew.
Henry has been found. But can men so thoroughly broken be saved?

Summary
Dying, trapped in a crack in the world, Jayce has lost almost everything- save the memories. And in the darkness those come out in terrible, technicolor clarity. Every victory, every failure, how it all began- and how it ended. Every single time he stepped over the edge. Every time he fell.
(Jayce hadn't thought anything of him at first- easy to overlook an unwanted bureaucrat- easier still, to overlook a cripple.)
(Something sly about it, the cast of that pale face. Just how bright those golden eyes were, in the black. They seemed to catch the light, reflecting it back, like those of a young fox.)
Of course, falling didn't always hurt. Once, he had fallen in love.

Wings won’t get us far by BrokenChords_765

Summary
Mages have hunted down angels, coveting them for a false belief that their wings will give them more power. They’re basically extinct…
This race of people are just people, only more in touch with the arcane in a way that mages can only dream of. Now there’s only one left.
Wingless.
Broken.But alive, which should be impossible.
(Angels in this story are just a race of people born with wings of any kind, they are natural healers who are in tune with the natural magic around them. Nothing religious)
[Completely edited]
—
Or, Viktor is broken in ways you can’t imagine and is slowly dying from lack of exposure to magic. But there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Summary
Five years ago, Jayce made an impulsive offer to build Hextech weapons to combat the rising tide of Undercity airship piracy. In response, Viktor torched their research and disappeared from Piltover for good.
Five years ago, a new airship took to the skies, with a young captain and a misfit crew and a massive, impossible tree growing straight through the hull.
These two events are completely unrelated - unless, of course, they're not.
Jayce steps into Viktor's space. His fist closes in the lapel of Viktor's overcoat. It's a little foolish, but he half-expects this whole thing to be some kind of hallucination. Something at the back of his brain imagines his hand will pass through Viktor like mist. It doesn't, and that, more than anything, makes this feel like more than a hypervivid variation on the same dream Jayce has been having for years now.
In his dreams, Viktor always has the clammy chill of a cadaver. This Viktor feels so warm under Jayce's hand, he thinks his skin might come away scalded.Bookmarked by AffableWolves

Summary
The distant look in the Mage’s eyes snapped to the gap of the roof, to the near-silent tuttering of other, watchful machines down below. “No, it doesn’t matter. You will be safe up here. It should be simple enough, to lay protective wards into the earth of the tower. I won’t let anything happen to you,” he vowed.
Promises held no impetus in this world, where nothing happened, nothing changed.
The Machine reset its position on its knees and replaced its hands on the weapon of a fallen era. I can’t stop you from making useless promises, can I?
Somehow, without doing anything, the Machine had gained a visitor and protector.

Summary
“Father Viktor has brought back all those programs you whined about missing. The East Hall is being converted into a soup kitchen as we speak, and after Mass there’s going to be an open-doors Christmas meal,” his mother says wistfully, drinking in a sip from her mug.
Jayce is going to have to see that for himself. His high income neighborhood and the prestigious, self-righteous families that attend the Church? Rubbing elbows with people in need for the holidays?
Maybe he really does need to meet Father Viktor. And shake his hand.
─── ⋆⋅ ♰ ⋅⋆ ───
Or: Jayce comes home for the holidays after a breakup to find a new priest at his childhood Catholic church. Father Viktor is not the kind of person Jayce ever expected to be a priest, but he has a dream to change Jayce's hometown for the better, and he decides to do everything he can to help. The more he helps, the more Jayce sees glimpses of Viktor, the man, not the priest. And the more glimpses he sees of Viktor, the more Jayce is so, so fucked.

Summary
Being alone at the cottage is not unnerving, just… unfamiliar.
At least, that’s what Johnny tells himself.
And it’s what he repeats to himself as while he continues to stare out the window, polishing off the last of his whisky, his eyes catch strange movement deeper into the forest. Something shrouded in shadow, moving in a way that’s far too slow to be any of the prey animals that are most common in the woods.
Something that doesn’t even catch the light of the moon.
Something big.
OR: When Johnny moves out to the coast to fix up his grandmother's old cottage to sell, he isn't expecting to fall in love with the place—or the mysterious, fluffy guardian of the surrounding forest.

Summary
“I think that’s enough Soap for one day.”
Soap didn’t think that the others realized that his heart had just stopped working.
A chest, a wit, murmured into a glass of half-drunk Whiskey by Ghost, a chuckling Gaz nearby who gave Ghost a pat on the shoulder. Price huffed before taking a sip from his beer, and Soap remained quiet, his body numb, his head foggy, his heart still.
“He’s your Lieutenant. That contract’s unreturnable.”
Price crooked a smile at Ghost, who let out a heavy breath. Gaz took a sip from his bottle, chuckling over it. “Should have read the fine print, Ghost.”
Ghost shrugged. “Next time I’ll do.”Another version of the shut-up-trope. Lots of angst and hurt!Soap with a happy ending.

An ongoing series where two touch-starved men figure out how to take care of each other in ways that no military field guide ever covered. Thankfully, when you already trust a person with your life, letting them see you at your most vulnerable isn't nearly as hard as it sounds.
Non-sexual intimacy, physical touch, a little angst, and a lot of comfort.
