    Summary

    As far as punishments go, rebirthing a once terminally ill man - whose obsession with human perfection drove him to almost end humanity - in a hospital bed in palliative care could be seen as a little on the nose. To make it the same one he woke up in all those months-years-a lifetime ago, especially so. But Viktor can’t help feeling it’s far better than he deserves.

     

    Viktor emerges from the Arcane, alone. He’s not sure he can navigate a world that doesn’t have Jayce Talis in it.

    Summary

    Viktor is legally subhuman, and he's been in hiding since the murder of Salo and the death of his best friend Sky.
    Jayce wants to understand the truth but most of all he wants to understand Viktor.
    ---
    Those who are not human must always be in clear view of a human, never out of sight.

    Those who are not human must not make sudden movements.

    Those who are not human must not speak to their betters in public.

    Viktor repeated those words in his head like a mantra, not because they belonged but because they were there.

    Summary

    Viktor says, “Did you ever have respect for my wishes? Or was I always just… some thing to you? A person when it pleased you, and a pet when my will contradicted your own.”

    “That was never the case.” A shuddering inhale. Nerves prickling under his skin. It horrifies him that Viktor would think him so ignoble. “It isn’t true, Viktor. You know that. You’re my best friend. I still— I still think of you as my partner.”

    “I’m not your partner.” Never was the word spat out, the way Viktor spits it. “I’m your prisoner.”

    Jayce returns from a blighted Piltover. Before he can enter Viktor’s commune, he is swept up by a Noxian patrol. From there, he is thrown in with a dubious Doctor, and forced to confront his failings: whether that means by acceptance, or atonement.
