    Summary

    He crosses his arms around his chest, hunching over himself. "So, um. Is it... real different than bein' in a human body?"

    It clicks at him again. There's an answering shiver in Yoshiki's ribs, a mix of fear and itchy curiosity. Against his better judgement he inches forward, lifting his hand into the space between them. The thing tracks his movements with a noiseless twitch.

    "Do you feel other things the same, too? Like... if I touch you, can you feel it?"

    Summary

    'The passion caused by the great and sublime in nature, when those causes operate most powerfully, is astonishment; and astonishment is that state of the soul, in which all its motions are suspended, with some degree of horror… A mode of terror or pain is always the cause of the sublime.'

    Summary

    Jayce didn’t come to teach at Piltover University to develop a minor (read: major) obsession with Viktor, but here he is. The man is infuriatingly brilliant, dryly condescending, and has probably already dismissed Jayce as an overeager idiot. Fine. Jayce can live with that. What he can’t live with is the fact that he keeps seeking Viktor out anyway—asking too many questions, reading too many of his papers, lingering in his presence like some lovesick grad student. This isn’t a crush. It’s an intellectual challenge. At least, that’s what he’s telling himself.

    or

    Jayce Talis, a young and ambitious professor, gets an opportunity he didn’t dare dream about - teaching at the Piltover Tech University. There, he meets Viktor - a slightly older, respected and extremely reserved colleague of his. Jayce is somewhat intrigued with the man, his studies in particular. He finds the way Viktor’s brain works fascinating - like his opinions and theories are somehow a puzzle piece that would complete Jayce’s own research. Jayce’s academic interest, though, turns into infatuation and full-blown obsession with the man rather than his studies.

    Summary

    At first, there is only light, blue and blinding hot. This is the end, Jayce knows, even as the seconds stretch on and on and on. This is the end, and he will never know if what he has done has saved anybody except Viktor.

    And maybe, in the end, that’s all that matters.

    Summary

    “Could it be… heaven?”

    “No, not heaven.” Viktor whispered. “Perhaps it is simply home.”

    Home.

    Jayce watched Viktor smile at the constellations, and the word started to resonate.
