Summary
The people here keep away from me, talk little to me apart from what is needed to trade for the few things I require. No doubt they talk of me, if not to me. The cripple who lives in the forest—skin unhealthily pale no matter how much sun he takes—and of the fat man who visits him. I suspect they think us lovers.
They are not entirely wrong.
A slight reimagining of the King of Assassins epilogue.

Summary
Jayce grins. “Too deep in your paperwork, Councilor Kiramman?”
She groans and pushes aside the stack of papers she was focused on. “If you would join the council again, Mr. Talis, maybe you could take some of this paperwork off of my hands.”
He laughs and shakes his head, holding his hands up in surrender. “No, we saw how that went last time. I’d rather spend my time in the academy labs, thanks. Besides, I haven’t been very popular with the council or with the citizens since I came out in support of, you know, not having Viktor thrown into Stillwater or executed.”
After the war, Caitlyn and Jayce have a quiet conversation.

Summary
When Viktor says, “Jayce, your leg…” his voice does not reverberate with an otherworldly echo. He sounds like Viktor—just Viktor. Jayce’s partner.
“It’s okay,” Jayce says. He wraps his fingers around the hand that Viktor offers him, and as their skin touches, an electric tingle goes down Jayce’s arm. For a moment he expects them to be back in that other place, blinding blue light and the glow of countless souls surrounding them, but no—they’re still here, in the bright midday sunlight, on the shattered dome above Piltover. They are real.
Jayce and Viktor survive. There is still so much for them to figure out.

Summary
Viktor leans towards him as they make their way down the academy steps. “We should go get drinks.”
Jayce stumbles on a step. “Drinks?”
“Yes,” Viktor says. His lips curl up in a playful smile. “Don’t you think we ought to celebrate our success, partner?”
At the start of it all, Viktor and Jayce go out for drinks.

Summary
“You know,” Sol says softly, their eyes taking on that strange and dreamy look they sometimes have. “In all the times I’ve known you, I don’t think you’ve ever told me what happened to your arm.”
Sol says things like this, sometimes. Weird turns of phrase. All the times I’ve known you, not time. Vace has tried to ask them about it, but they always brush it off. He’s learned not to ask—it’s just another one of Sol’s quirks, something else that makes them seem… different, in a way that made Vace hate them just as much as all the other Strato weirdoes so many years ago, but that makes them so intriguing now. Endearing, even.
A quiet moment of vulnerability between Vace and Sol.

Summary
Stretching out his arms, Murdoc places the helmet on her head, much to her bemusement; it's perched awkwardly like a tinman's crown, a balancing act when it once used to fit like a glove. "You never took this bloody thing off. I used to think it was glued to your head."
"It might as well have been." With a smile, Noodle pulls at the antennas sitting where her ears would've been covered. "You didn't help. You'd shove it over my eyes when I annoyed you."
(The two of them drag the long-gone past to the present.)

Summary
Your body is a divine instrument, a machine that turns pizza and alcohol into an unstoppable musical rampage. You are a godlike manifestation of creative power, you are a beacon of worship in the dullness of these people’s lives, you are a sex symbol slithering into their repressed subconscious and waiting to be uncovered and interpreted in future therapy sessions. You are, as Murdoc tells himself in the mirror every morning, totally immune to scurvy.

Summary
And now Riz is thinking about Fabian, and how he got hurt, and how it’s his fault. ‘You didn’t possess Fabian,’ a little piece of him whispers. ‘You didn’t try to drown him,’ it says, and it’s right, but Riz hadn’t stopped it either. It had been his job to watch over Fabian, to make sure he was okay, and Riz had been too busy sleeping to make sure he was safe. Riz thinks about all the ways he could’ve kept tonight from happening, of all the things he could’ve done differently, of all ways he could fix this--
Which makes him ask, “Can I touch your scar?”
-
Riz grapples with being Fabian's best friend, his own feelings and desires, and the realization that they don't have to be exclusive.
(Or Mac thought too hard about Riz comforting and touching Fabian's scar after Pirate Brawl and blacked out to write 4.1k about it. Spoilers for Sophomore Year Episode 6!)
