Part FOUR of the (maybe series) where Jayce makes/finds a cure for Viktor's leg. If you wanna know what exactly is wrong with Viktor's leg, go to part two. Honourable mention before we ride this emotional roller-coaster; (Pre Jesus-Viktor)

—Viktor's leg had completely corrected itself by now. This meant no more pains, no more aches, no more cane. Overall, Viktor was happy. And so was Jayce—

Viktor: *Standing confidently without his cane as he explains his calculations on the chalkboard to Jayce.*

Viktor: So, taking into account the fact you are an expert in metal work, you can make this part. Correct?

Jayce: Mhm.

Viktor: *Not noticing his stare again, too entranced in explaining his idea to Jayce* Great. I will work on the more... mathematical and scientific aspect of things.

Jayce: Mhm.

Viktor: *Points to something on the chalkboard* Do you think you could make this also? Is it possible to make it spin?

Jayce: Mhm.

Viktor: And-... are you even listening Jayce?

Jayce: Mhm.

Viktor: *Testing him* are penguins are green?

Jayce: *Blindly agreeing* mhm.

Viktor: *Deadpans* Jayce is stupid.

Jayce: Mhm... yup...

Viktor: What a horrible friend.

Jayce: Friend!? I thought we were more??

Viktor: So that's what got your attention?

Viktor: *Muttering* unbelievable🙄

Jayce: I was listening the whole time.

Viktor: You confimed penguins are green. I doubt you were listening all that much.

Jayce: *Blushing* I- well... shut up.

Viktor: Ableist.

Jayce: YOU'RE NOT EVEN DISABLED ANYMORE!😭

Viktor: I still have the cane.

Jayce: But you don't use it!

Viktor: It serves other purposes.

Jayce: *Sass evident* like what?

Viktor: *Bonks him on the head with his cane that he had resting on the wall nearby.*

Jayce: Ouch! You- you-... meanie.

Viktor: *Gasps and falls over.*

Jayce: What? What!?

Viktor: *Dramatically places a hand over his head* I think your words have reversed the cure. I can feel my leg turning again!

Jayce: What!? How!? I-... I didn't mean to, I swear! I can make another cure! I'm sorry...

Viktor: *Smacks the back of Jayce's head* you are the dumbest smart person I know, Jayce.

Jayce: *Frowning as Viktor gets up* you joke a lot for someone as small as yourself.

Viktor: *Suspicious* what does that mean?

Jayce: *Gets up and grabs viktor princess-style, lifting him into the air.*

Viktor: *Shocked* Put. Me. Down.

Jayce: Hmm... no.

Viktor: *Mumbles* I'm gonna hate this...

Viktor: *Yells* Mel!! Meeeeeel! Jayce has gone psychotic!

Jayce: ...wot?😧

♡Mel♡: *Opening the lab doors* Viktor?

♡Mel♡: *Seeing Jayce holding up Viktor in the air* Jayce Talis!

Jayce: *Immediately sets Viktor down* he was being mean...

♡Mel♡: *Walking in as Viktor scurries off smugly* so you hold him in the air like that!? What has gotten into you, Jayce?

Jayce: I was just being silly...

♡Mel♡: *Over it.*

Lmk if this should be a series bec I really don't have anymore ideas :)

Also- If I'm using a term wrong or offensively (such as 'ableist') pls inform me. I don't want to be rude and/or offend anybody🥲☺️

Pt.3 of Jayce making a cure for Viktor's leg. I'm tired already😭✋️ As always; (Pre Jesus-Viktor)

—Viktor's leg had been slowly correcting itself over time, along with his chronic pains and aches. It took a while to get used to, but it was amazing—

—Jayce seemed especially happy seeing Viktor walk around without his cane—

Viktor: *Walking around the lab, cane in hand but not using it.*

Jayce: *Watching with a loving gaze.*

Viktor: I know you are staring, Jayce.

Jayce: So? It's just so nice seeing you walk around without your cane.

Viktor: Are you saying I'm more aesthetically pleasing to look at when I'm not hobbling around with my cane?

Jayce: *Almost falls off his chair* No! No, no! Gods no!

Viktor: *Raises an amused eyebrow, pretending to be offended* Really, Jayce... I am disappointed.

Jayce: Hey- hey, no, no. You know I didn't mean it like that, Viktor!

Viktor: You are simply lying to get out of trouble.

Jayce: Nuh uh! I'm just happy to see you walking!!

Viktor: *Suppresses a snicker* you didn't like when I was using my cane?

Jayce: *Actually falls off his chair, close to fainting* noo○°º...

Viktor: I am joking, Jayce.

Jayce: *Laying on the floor, pancake and/or starfish style.*

Viktor: Get up Jayce. At this point, I am better at standing than you.

Jayce: *Groans* You are-... urgh!

Viktor: I am what, Jayce? What is it I am?

Jayce: No- Viktor...

Viktor: Was it something rude? Am I not good enough for you? Was my recovery too slow?

Jayce: Come on, Viktor. You're smart and amazing and- and- awesome! You're great!

Viktor: Mhm.

♡Mel♡: *Creaks open lab door to find viktor standing without a cane and Jayce sprawled out on the floor.*

—She wasnt aware of the cure Jayce made for Viktor, (cause she avoids him and only talks to Jayce😂)—

♡Mel♡: Am I... am I interrupting something?

Jayce: Mel! Oh, Mel... Viktor is being mean to me!

Viktor: *Shrugs as he hobbles off.*

♡Mel♡: *Slowly closes the door again, heavily judging the both of them* I shall return later.

Jayce: No, please!

Viktor: *Ominously in the corner* You'll never escape, Jayce. You ableist.

Jayce: *Screeching atp* I'M NOT ABLEIST!!😭

Viktor: Are too. You created a cure for me because you though something was wrong with me.

Jayce: I just wanted to make your life easier!!

Viktor: Lies.

Continuation of the Au where Jayce finds a cure for Viktor. (Pre Jesus-Viktor)

—The effects didn't happen as fast as they both would've liked, especially Jayce, surprisingly. It took about a week for results to start appearing—

Viktor: *Walking into the lab where Jayce was scribbling on the chalkboard* I am in less pain today, Jayce. And look, my leg is starting to turn. Back to where it is supposed to be!

Jayce: *Spinning around and almost tripping in his haste* really? The cure must be working!

Viktor: *Waddles over* I still need my cane, but I no longer have to lean on it much.

Jayce: *Grins* that's great! I-... I mean, that's just amazing, Viktor.

Viktor: *Grins back* I know it is Jayce. Thank you.

Jayce: Thank you? For what?

Viktor: *Visible confusion* the cure...

Jayce: *Realisation* Oh, yeah! You're welcome.

Viktor: *Chuckles as he shakes his head, sitting down on a nearby spinny and/or rolling chair.*

Viktor: *Holds out cane, waiting for Jayce to take it.*

Jayce: *Grabs the cane and holds it like a good (boy) lab partner.*

Viktor: What calculations have you been working on, Jayce?

Jayce: Oh, well, there was this first one which was really hard. I think it was 34 × 17 or something and- *etc*

Viktor: Jayce...

Jayce: *Keeps rambling*

Viktor: Jayce.

Jayce: *Oblivious*

Viktor: Jayce!!

—Yes, this is a reference to that scene with Jinx & Silco. (Yk the scene where he's like: "Jinx!😡" and she's like, "That's mee!!☺️") And yes, I know its not the exact same, stfu🙄—

Jayce: *Flinches* what?

Viktor: I meant have you made any breakthroughs concerning Hextech. Not your maths abilities.

Jayce: Oh. No.

Viktor: *Groans*

Jayce: Maths is hard, okay!?

Viktor: Right.

Jayce: It is!!

Viktor: *Hides his smirk with a hand* it's what?

Jayce: It's hard!

Viktor: *Smirks as he looks at Jayce with a mischievous looking gaze.*

Jayce: *Innocently confused.*

Jayce: Viktor, why are yo-... oh my gosh...

Viktor: That, my dear friend Jayce... is what she said.

There might be another part where I make a timeskip to when Viktor's leg is fully healed, but I'll see how I feel about it.

Also here's Viktor's leg condition for y'all who are interested but too lazy to search it😚:

Au where Jayce manages to find and/or make a cure for Viktor's leg, and he no longer has to use his cane. (Pre Jesus-Viktor)

Viktor: *Peacefully working in the lab, enjoying the serenity.*

Jayce: *Runs in panting & out of breath* VIKTOR!! VIKTOR- HAHA!

Viktor: *Visibly startled* what is it you are so... fired up about, Jayce?

Jayce: *Giddy* I did it, Viktor. I did it!

Viktor: *Exasperated already* did what, exactly?

Jayce: I made a cure! For- for you! You, Viktor!!

Viktor: *Unconvinced, but somewhat hopeful* Uh huh.

Jayce: *Overwhelmed with excitement* I ran all the calculations, I tested everything... i-it should work!

Viktor: *A little more curious now* alright, give it here.

Jayce: *Hands over vial of neon green liquid.*

Viktor: Jayce-... Green? Neon green? Really?

Jayce: *Almost on top of Viktor at this point* it works I swear.

Viktor: Alrighty then... do I drink it?

Jayce: *Nodding enthusiastically*

Viktor: *Apprehensively holds the vial to his lips, sipping it cautiously.*

Viktor: It is...

Jayce: *If he had a tail, it would be wagging rn* Yah??

Viktor: *Grimaces* disgusting. What did you put in this?

Jayce: *Frowns dramatically* love.

Viktor: *Rolls his eyes* your love isn't very tasty, Jayce.

Jayce: *Offended noises*

Viktor: *Drinks the rest* let us hope this works then.

Pt.2 later, I'm tired😃

I forced them to love eachother☺️❤️

Jayce: Viktor, please! You cannot keep working like this.

Viktor: I can do what I like, Jayce.

Jayce: *Sighs* At least take a break... we can go get lunch.

Viktor: I lost my cane.

Jayce: It's right next to you.

Viktor: I'm not hungry.

Jayce: You haven't eaten in 24 hours.

Viktor: *Huffs* what do you care!? I need to finish a couple more calculations.

Jayce: I care about you a lot, Viktor. You're my partner.

Viktor: *Clearly unconvinced* do you? Truly, Jayce? What else are we but lab partners?

Jayce: Friends.

Viktor: Friends?

Jayce: ...

Jayce: *A long, nervous pause* well, I want us to be lovers... but I'm not sure how you feel about that. *mumbles*

Viktor: *Eyes wide* lovers...

Jayce: *Looks up at Viktor with hopeful, teary eyes* I love you, Viktor.

Viktor: I... you really love me?

Jayce: I love you. I'd love you to the ends of the earth if it meant you'd love me back... I love you so much it physically hurts...

Viktor: *Stands up, hugging Jayce tightly* I love you too, Jayce...

THIS FANDOM IS A PRISON, I JUST WANT THEM TO OPENLY LOVE EACHOTHER😫😭

*Starman (David Bowie😩❤️) playing on a phonograph in the lab.*

Viktor: *Working on a calculation.*

Jayce: *Creaks open door to see Viktor tapping his foot and nodding along with the music.*

Jayce: I didn't know you liked this sort of music...

Viktor: *Almost jumps out of his skin, raising his cane to attack whoever spoke.*

Viktor: *Sets cane down* Oh. It is just you, Jayce...

Jayce: *Walks into the lab, also bobbing his head along to the song* It is I.

Viktor: I just like the song, is all.

Jayce: *Sarcastically* Alright.

Jayce: *Gets hit on the back with Viktor's cane, yelping* Ow-wuh!

Viktor: *Smirks* I'll send you flying into space next time.

Jayce: *Goes to retort, but pauses* I bet you'd be a Starman in another life...

Viktor: *Confused.*

Viktor: *Smiles knowingly* I hope so, Jayce. I hope so...

Little thing I came up w/ in the middle of the night😚

Viktor: I'm so sorry, Jayce... *sniffles*... can you ever forgive me for hurting you?

Jayce: *Smiles weakly, voice shaky and hoarse* Of course Viktor... I still love you as much as before.

Viktor: Even after I accidentally stabbed you?

Jayce: *Chuckles weakly* Well, wouldn't you forgive me if I did that to you?

Viktor: *Long silence* ...No.

Jayce: *Voice suddenly clearer than the light of day* No!?

Viktor: ehhh... yes. I wouldn't not forgive you for such a thing.

Jayce: *Hacks out a cough* Why not!?

Viktor: *shrugs with a godly—ha—amount of sass* Because.

bisexuality demons were kicking his ass

Jayvik

Not everything is gay, yes. But some creators will create the most heart-stopping life-changing on screen male friendship with two guys canonically described as two halves of the same whole and then they’ll say “nah they’re just bros.”

Like WDYM you traveled countless timelines to save the life of your best friend and push him towards a future where he meets you— SAVES YOU— because no one else can, no one else can even TRY— and THATS JUST GUYS BEING DUDES????

You entwined your fates together and we’re just supposed to pretend that’s the same level as a friendship bracelet?

…I’m bringing this back because I feel unwell— chat is this them or am I crazy???

I see your ‘Sun/moon ship dynamic,’ and raise you ‘binary stars dynamic’ as in— we orbit each other. We stay in place and keep moving for the other because they won’t stop pulling us in and we won’t stop chasing them. We will draw each other closer and closer until we merge together and explode into a single, beautiful nebula made of our combined star dust. And the nebula is beautiful because it’s us together, because we were always meant to rip ourselves apart to put ourselves back together as one. We are on a path of mutually assured destruction but we can’t turn back now. it’s already happened. It hasn’t happened yet… but it will.

We are in love, after all.

never realized the implications of this scene but what was this all about. what do you mean he went and hugged viktor and THEN realized oh hes naked and tried to play it off with a “you must be cold” literally all that was missing from this scene was his face turning red like an anime girl and him running off to get a blanket for viktor going “KYAAA!!!”

am i arcane posting too much theyre all i think about. also tumblrs layout looks like it hasnt been updated in 10 years

seeinf people still talk about how jayvik are best friends is insane to me. cannot fathom watching two souls intertwined through space and time existing only for eachother doomed only by eachother and going wow.. they are such good friends

jayvik nation sedate me

downloaded this app solely to yap about jayvik because oh my GOD. also spoilers maybe

for starters. arcane as a show is just so beautiful to me because it starts with this idea that there is disparity and suffering and the concept of “oil and water” is something every single person suffers from. and it just continues like that all through season 1, just people, regular people, individuals whos lives we follow hurting eachother for the sake of their own artificial morals and ethics. we even see it in young viktor, his morals and individual ideas that mean so much to him(god that makes it hurt so much more to watch what happens in s2) and the whole season they lure you in with this false sense of believing that this is the show. this is the overarching theme of disparity, pain, suffering despite believing its for the “greater good.” but arcane is not about suffering. it doesnt for a second think this world is made to suffer in and yet it ensnares you with exactly that idea. because people love to be right, and we as the audience hinge on every word because the concept of people, individuals, being more than just black and white is something we all believe and yet adding even a dash of complexity into it makes it seem like this new idea that hasnt been done before. we mightve seen wealth disparity before, we mightve seen the concepts of everyone just being “people” regardless of who they are or what circumstances theyve lived in. but arcane doing it different, putting a little spin on it, giving us a glimpse into their war and battles and just how easy it is for these characters to die made us feel like this was MORE realistic, like it was different from all the others times, all the other shows and books and stories that have told us that everyone is flawed and yet everyone is good. honestly thats not even a bad thing, that alone wouldve made it an incredible show. but arcane doesnt stop there. every episode of s2 hit me like a truck because EVERYTHING was interconnected. every single action of every single person had meaning all leading up to one single point and still it all flies right under your nose because youre still thinking of “people” and “individuals.” you just keep following these characters in their own bubbles all with heaps of suffering and pain of their own and its so much that you dont even have time to consider how all these things might have an impact on one another…. until of course, the final scene. that godforsaken scene with jayce and viktor that genuinely made me bawl my eyes out. its just so perfect. its such an absolutely perfect cultivation of everything that has happened in the show. the way every single thing that has happened so far has been one single butterfly effect, one tip of a domino that has led to this war.

anyway forget all that im here to talk about jayvik uhm god that final scene with them made me want to die so bad. viktor goes back to save jayce time and time again knowing jayce is the catalyst to this butterfly effect to begin with. he goes back knowing that like all the other times, this one could be the same. this one could be another timeline where jayce fails. and still, he goes back to save him when letting him die would “fix” everything. on the other side of the coin viktor cannot be this prophet, someone who weilds the arcane, without jayce, because it is jayce who he hands the rune to, jayce who wants to touch the arcane, and jayce who stays by viktors side and calls him “partner” long enough for viktor to stand up on his own two feet and leave the man who man him. jayce cannot exist without viktor. viktor cannot exist without jayce. the string that ties them together connects absolutely everyone else and it drags them all down too and STILL… viktor goes back to save jayce. because even though he could choose not to save him, that timeline wouldnt matter, because viktor wants to save the timeline where jayce exists. and how poetic is it that these two anomalies end up going out in a flash of light holding hands good god i love this show so much

anyway i hope tumblr doesnt have a word limit theres my surface level analysis of arcane goodnigjt jayvik nation

In the denial of their divorce 😭

[post Arcane Canon]

Viktor: [using a piece of lacing to tie up his still long hair] I should cut my hair.

Jayce: [immediately whips around] I should shave. [flatly. Like it is a threat. (It is)]

Viktor: [has a silent stare off with Jayce for a minute. Slowly starts to smile] You can just say you like it, Jayce.

Jayce: [sheepishly moves to take the lacing from him] Here, I can help put it up.

Viktor: [chuckling now] Did you really just hold your beard hostage for my hair?

Jayce: Did it work?

Viktor: …. Yes. It did.

"shipping" doesn't feel like the right term anymore. like im not looking at these two characters and thinking "outside of the canon they would make a good couple." or "i hope the author writes them to be together" shipping is shallow. shipping is taking two characters who have a potential, but dont really live up to it. shipping is just making shit up. that's jelsa. that’s shounen boys and their “love interests.” that's the entire disney princess catalogue pre-ariel. what im doing is im looking at WHAT THEY ALREADY ARE and thinking "woah. okay. incredible dynamic there. im gonna hyperfixate on it until i shrivel up and die" and if it happens their already existing dynamic has heavily romantic implications, then that has NOTHING to do with me and EVERYTHING to do with the canon🤷‍♀️

it's funny that we were all so worried about viktor's villain arc and then jayce was like L + ratio + here's my unconditional love and forgiveness + i always thought your imperfections were beautiful + nothing about you is broken to me + in every universe i will find you and save you from your loneliness + none of this is worth it if you arent by my side. and viktor folded IMMEDIATELY

(they're literally quantum entangled your honor)

oh the misery

I love this show so much, I’m glad we got a good final!

“Didn’t you try to kill him?”

“The greatest thing we can do in life…”

“…is find the power to forgive.”

The Line & Friend, Please

from Twenty One Pilots are the most Jayvik songs I have ever heard 😭✨

This is one of the best Jayvik fanfics I have ever read

I never felt soo emotional while reading a fanfic and also one of the scenes caused me an anxiety attack (which sucked but it's just a testament to how well written this story is) and don't even get me started on how beautifully Viktor and Jayce are portrayed!

And yea I can't shut up about this fic and I believe I never will

So I'm begging you to go read it and support this incredibly talented author! They truly deserve it ☕

Thank you for your attention and time

Too close to the sun

JAYVIK🩵🧡

I love them so much😭💕

Jayce and Viktor are so Ancient Greek tragedy coded. Like if someone wrote their story in the context of a Greek tragedy you wouldn’t even know that it wasn’t

The way I’m more locked in on writing this Jayvik fanfic I forgot about for like a month than the actual original story idea I came up with

If someone makes a Jayvik edit/animatic to Haunted Lust and/or Drink by The Happy Fits I’ll love you forever
