Summary
When a summer internship falls through, Jayce must resign himself to sacrificing his dignity to online job postings and employers who are too trigger-happy when it comes to sending rejections—except for one: an amusement park called The Last Drop.
Jayce will take what he can get. Spending the summer working as a carnie (though Jayce is aware it won't all be sunshine and rainbows, and it's not like he'd be meeting the love of his life there) can't be that bad, he supposes.

Summary
Ten years ago, Jayce and Viktor went their separate ways. As to why, Jayce is still entirely clueless—but it's no matter. He's happy with where he's gotten himself.
Then the universe decides throw him a curveball, and now Jayce and Viktor are once again face-to-face—only now in Middle-of-Nowhere, Colorado, the very last place Jayce ever expected he'd see Viktor again.

Summary
When renting an apartment by himself finally became a viable option for Jayce, he'd been confident in his ability to live alone. But that was before his apartment was blown up, and now, much to his chagrin, he has to look for a roommate.

Summary
In every universe, their meeting is inevitable. Maybe circumstances and outcomes change, but no matter what, there is no Jayce without Viktor, and no Viktor without Jayce.

Summary
Dhu Heartach Lighthouse, Scotland, 1900
Viktor was certain his life was over after his medical practice and research collapsed around him. And then he found the lighthouse. And then Jayce found him.
~~~
Viktor reached the edge of the rocks and extended his hand down, hoping the man could see him and would reach out as well. The mirror at the top of the lighthouse swung around so it was shining the bright, warm light down onto them, shining over the back of Viktor so his shadow fell on the man's face. From this angle, Viktor could see the man was not entirely aware of what was going on. Still, he threw an oar up onto the rocks and locked eyes with Viktor.
"Mamá?" he asked, and lifted a weak hand to try and reach Viktor.
"No," Viktor corrected. "Give me your hand."

Summary
He walks toward Jayce, driven by a thousand hands on his back. Of people in that room, of ghosts, of his own mother. All pushing him toward Jayce and toward a future that metamorphosizes with every step he takes. Viktor can feel the winds shift and part of his story is wiped clean, unwritten by his own actions that night.
Viktor doesn’t look back. He allows Jayce to open the door for him, and steps out into the evening. The sunset is vibrant, gold and pink and explosive.
Feeling unaccepted by Piltover in the wake of his 28th birthday, Viktor returns to the Undercity for an annual festival to reconcile who he is with where he came from.
Things go south.

Summary
So there they are, a shopkeep and a curious stranger, losing daylight in silence. The man studies Jayce’s work while Jayce studies him, and isn’t curiosity just one hell of a thing? It can motivate a topside scientist to brave the gray, and it can bully out years of ingrained wariness to make room for itself.
The man moves again, the necessary three steps left to reach a workbench of works-in-progress. The metalwork of it is rough, all hinges and mechanisms wrought from steel scrap. The beginning of a knee joint, sitting next to the first prototype of Jayce’s own leg brace.
The man’s gaze lingers there, intent and molten in the dimming afternoon light. Then he’s reaching out, reaching forward, his careful fingers tracing along welding seams and scratches in the metal, and Jayce’s curiosity flash-boils.
“Can I help you?”
