Summary
DEAD DOVE: Do Not Eat
Viktor needs relief. Silco needs leverage. Jayce won’t slow down to even see what's going on right beneath his feet. And the longer Viktor stays, the more he begins to understand that survival isn’t about learning which parts of yourself you can sacrifice.
(AKA Silco grooms Viktor with shimmer and capitalizes when the opportunity presents itself. Oh nooo Jayce how are you going to save him!)
--
Some days, Viktor wonders what it might feel like to live peacefully blissed out on existence, free of coherent thought, of the awareness of his own body’s betrayal, his lungs’ collapse like an ecosystem without its vital function, what it might feel like to lay on his back staring blankly at the ceiling, caring and not caring as interchangeable as not breathing. But it was very hard not to care.
“Nonsense. Our mutual friend has made me quite clear on the details of your situation, Viktor. Such a shame that even now Piltover continues to leave such a mark on the sharpest minds of our land. They take and take and take from us— You’re not wrong for wanting help, Viktor. For needing help. What this represents is a tool, not a crutch. Do you understand?”

Summary
DEAD DOVE: Do Not Eat
Pekka Rollins gets his payment either way. It's especially horrible that touch triggers flashbacks.
--
Long ago, when The Barrel forced him to slaughter all weakness, something flawed survived in him despite it. Jordie, for instance. Inej too. Years of solidifying his reputation, of steeling his presence and thinking a hundred paces ahead left Kaz vulnerable to one of human nature’s hilarious facts; you feel things even when you want to smother them. The endless drama between body and brain, the nauseating imperative of crushing it down. It was precisely that evasion that Pekka picked up, then exploited. He’d been so careful, but it took just one slip.
He’d make sure it was Pekka that burned.
