Summary
After graduating from the Academy, Viktor is forced to return to Zaun. Without a patron to finance his projects, he lives off his scams for seven years, forging documents to swindle wealthy Piltovian families so he can focus on his research. But one day, Cassandra Kiramman gives him a mission : to travel to Ionia to convince Jayce Talis to return to Piltover. However, here's the catch : contrary to what Cassandra believes, Viktor and Jayce never as much as interacted when they were students. But for the right amount of money and to protect his own secrets, Viktor is willing to take any risk and to play the part... So well that he might even deceive himself in the process.

Summary
“Can I tell you a secret?” Jayce whispers in the mermaid’s marble ear, just to be extra safe. He has to stand on his tippy-toes to reach her. This way he can avoid any chances of someone overhearing his most closely guarded secret.
“I’m not having professional thoughts.”
She stares blankly ahead.
“About Viktor,” Jayce clarifies when the statue does not react. “My lab partner.”
OR
Jayce realizes he's horny for Viktor. Which is fine, really. He's managing. But after Viktor doesn't join him at the Piltover Academy End of Year Ball, Jayce has one-too-many drinks and ends up trashed. Which is also fine.
Until it's not. Because Viktor shows up after all. Surely the Boys of Progress can keep it together? (And if they can't, you can bet there's gonna be lots of secret mutual pining and drunken chaos until they get their shit together)

Summary
Courting is not a big deal in Zaun.
That’s why Viktor is so oblivious to the rituals Piltovian alphas favour.
And why he doesn’t notice that Jayce has been courting him this whole time.

Summary
The hexcrystals have the potential save millions of lives. They could also be used to destroy millions, if placed in the wrong hands. Jayce Talis, the biomedical engineer, refuses to lease his family's monopoly on hexcrystals to anyone who might use them to make weapons, whether it be Piltover's own council or enemies who want to gain power in the Zaunite undercity. But with his beloved partner in danger, Jayce's pacifism has found its limits.
And Viktor builds a bomb.

Summary
Jayce Talis made his fortune with the Hexgates, but is now an indolent playboy, as corrupt and scheming as the rest of Piltover's elite; at least by day. By night he is the Defender of Tomorrow, using secret Hextech weaponry to strike back against the city's oppressors.
The Herald fights for the people of the Undercity every night, using strange rune magic to overwhelm the rampant crime. By day he is just Viktor, a wearied scientist running a medical clinic for those who cannot afford care.
The Defender and Herald are bitter enemies, only restrained by the thin truce between their cities. But when a class war begins to loom once again, the two are forced to work together to save both their respective homes.
