Summary
They land in a field of flowers.
There is a version of the Herald who knows this place. Who has walked a thousand iterations of this field, in a thousand worlds and a thousand lifetimes.
This Herald, the Herald of the right-here-and-now, knows only that he has found an unexpectedly soft landing.

Summary
“Worse than last time?” Jayce posits a guess.
“It’s, eh-” Viktor shrugs. Tilts his chin this way and that. A tsk. “Bearable. I’ve endured worse hangovers in college.” he was going for a laugh, but the punchline never truly lands. Instead, Jayce’s thumb rubs softly into the back of his palm, pressing like he wants to idle the muscle mass into something new. It’s such a small thing, whatever this is, and yet it steadies the flow of his blood; the relief of loosening a valve, flicking off a pressure switch. It’s the necessary cracking-open of his breast. Jayce squeezes. Viktor allows himself the luxury of a sigh. “You shouldn’t be here.” he mutters.
Jayce reflexively shakes his head. “I took the day off.”
“We both know that’s-”
“—I could take the week.” he insists, almost a threat, a flicker of that eternal stubbornness coursing through him.

Viktor longs for a soft place in which to bury his teeth.

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
“I challenge you to kiss me,” he says.
It’s out of his mouth before he can really think about it, which is something he only rarely experiences and only when standing in front of Gai. It’s like his brain shortcuts to places he didn’t even know existed before he came into contact with expressive eyebrows, gleaming eyes and a determined grin.
A grin that slips slowly off Gai’s face now. His eyes grow huge, as if to make up for it. “What.”
*
Kakashi and Gai kiss a lot over the years.
