    Summary

    Sometimes four seconds is all it takes for tragedy to etch itself into one's soul, blood and ash carving itself into their mind like a tattoo.

    Suffice to say, Ekko doesn't sleep well anymore.

    Summary

    The war has come and gone and so has she. Grief is a strange beast leaving him drifting between wanting to linger in his memories and dreams, and the world moving on.

    Ekko sort of does both, he lives and helps build the new and rests amongst the memories.

    Sometimes though, his dreams feel so real.

    Summary

    Whenever injuries confined him to the firelight base his natural state was numb, distant. He was so tired. So tired of it all. His only times of solace were when he mustered the energy to play with the children and, of course, at the mural. He'd sit there in complete silence, studying every inch of her face for hours. Scar knew not to go to him—it was the closest he ever felt to peace.

    ***

    A post-season 2 fic with a focus on Ekko struggling to handle his grief when he thinks Jinx is gone. Not only about Ekko (this is timebomb after all! Jinx will be involved, check out the tags) but I think his perspective is interesting and under-explored.

    why did you die without me? he says to the mural

    Summary

    Ekko hates her, the one who overtook the body of the girl he loved. The one who chose the monster over him. He hates her, he swears he does, Jinx killed Powder after all. But when he found her broken body near the burning council tower, he couldn’t just leave her there, even when she didn’t care if she lived or died.

    On the other side of the mirror, another version of him lives a peaceful life with her. She who never crossed the monster's path. She who never became Jinx.

    Summary

    After a failed Hexgem heist with Isha and Sevika, Jinx awakens in a world that feels like a twisted dream. Here, her sister adores her, she's surrounded by friends, and the girl in her photos has a bubbly blonde persona—but something’s off. Her blue hair still stands out, her weapons are by her side, and the truth is clear: something is terribly wrong. A Jinx doesn’t belong in a world like this.

    Meanwhile, engineering student Posey "Powder" Lanes wakes up in a bizarre universe being chased by enforcers next to two strange people she's never met. As she runs for her life, she learns painful truths about sisterhood, oppression, and the base violence that fuels change—forcing her to come face to face with the harsh reality of what revolution really means.

    Summary

    “Jinx?” he seemed horrified at the state of her.

    The tears all rushed back, as she threw herself onto him- hanging by his shoulder with one of her arms and the other, gripping onto the clothes around his waist “Save her!”

    Surprised at the sudden contact, the desperation in her voice, and the fact that he had no context as to what had just happened, he wasn’t sure what to do- so for a second, she clung onto him, shoulders shaking as she cried.

    “Who?” he questioned, looking around for an answer.

    There were several of them, with bodies laying on the floor left and right.

    “Isha!” she cried out.

    For once.. she was the one who needed saving. Where S2, E6 left off.

    Summary

    It should have been simple, really. Sneak past border control, quietly infiltrate the safehouse, find and destroy the new Hextech electro-magnetic pulse device before Piltover uses it to retaliate against the recent revolts in Zaun or Silco gets his hands on it.

    But Ekko should’ve known she’d be there.

    (ps: the fight goes wrong and they get locked in a room for days…)

    Summary

    When Isha fell into her arms, Jinx finally began to understand the kind of love Vander must have felt for Vi, the same love Silco had shown her, a love so strong it meant putting someone else’s safety above your own.

    But when Isha was taken from her once more, the emptiness left behind taught Jinx what Violet had felt before: the fear of losing someone you love and the agony of failing to keep them safe from danger.

    Summary

    No tribute truly leaves the arena. No victor truly wins the games.
     
    Post-war Piltover is a system: the Capitol is elevated through the support of its twelve districts, and its people are kept in check through the institution of the annual Hunger Games. Any calls for change or acts of defiance are snuffed out. Any troublemakers are put down. The Council of Piltover will do its due diligence: as long as the districts are silenced, they cannot rise— and their country will be safe.

    But then, the tributes for the 74th Annual Hunger Games are reaped, and it’s proved that a revolution is not something that just happens. It’s something that builds under the surface, boiling and bubbling until something breaks through. And for Piltover, that something just happens to be a crumpled slip of paper bearing the name 'Violet,' and the subsequent shout of “I volunteer as tribute!”

    Powder and Ekko are the District Twelve tributes for the 74th Hunger Games. Their mentor and escort, Viktor and Caitlyn, are going to do everything in their power to bring them home. Only, as it turns out, surviving the games is only the first tick in a countdown to nationwide change.

    Summary

    They used to be friends. It all changed in one night. And as the days went by, he only found them drifting farther apart. Ekko wanted to believe in her, believe in his city. But Zaun wasn't the same. She wasn't the same. No matter how hard he fought to get to her, it was pointless. And just as Zaun had changed her, he knew it order to survive, it had to change him too.

    Summary

    His vision flickered, and for an instant two images seemed to merge in his brain: one, Jinx’s hand covered in paint, extended towards his own hand, and her eyes, shimmer-purple, showing a glint of mischievous glee in a well of poorly hidden pain; the other, Powder’s hand holding a lighting stick for him to light some incense at her little shrine to Vi, and her eyes, powder-blue, showing a well of kindness and a hint of worry.

    Ekko felt both of his hands move, one towards each of them, and his chest felt like it was shattering, splitting apart, fundamentally being rent asunder, like when the anomaly took him.

    And who knew for how long, he was stuck in those four seconds of time, in both realities, with both Jinx and Powder and alone at the same time.

    _______

    How does Ekko deal with losing his childhood friend and potential lover all over again? What place does he have in this new status quo? How do his connections to others in Piltover and Zaun change? What effects did the Z-Drive explosion have on him? What happened to Jinx? Read all that, and more, here in Part 1 of this little Timebomb series of mine! And don't forget to read Part 2 after this one!!!

    Summary

    Powder put one less orb into the bomb than in the original universe. One less bomb made the biggest difference there could be. It changed the outcome. Not completely but still a lot.

    For example are her brothers still alive, even if she doesn't know it.

    -OR-

    An alternate universe where most things go like in canon, except the fact that Mylo and Claggor didn't die in the explosion, making the future reunion even more exciting. Vi, Jinx, My and Clag are all living different lives until they meet again.

    Summary

    Jinx looked over at him, at the way he was crouching to gently pull a scrap of wire out of Isha’s fingers before she broke it—or herself. His voice was soft when he explained what it did, fingers brushing hers as he showed her the switch mechanism. The girl nodded seriously, enthralled.

    Something twisted and loosened all at once in her chest.

    “You really don’t do things halfway,” she said, a little too quiet, a little too honest.

    Ekko glanced over at her and gave a crooked smile. “Not with you.”

    ------------
    A chance meeting in a derelict attic.
    Accidental at first. Then deliberate.
    Neutral ground — until it isn’t.

    OR

    Sometime shortly before season 1 episode 4, Jinx and Ekko start meeting up in a ruined attic. On opposite sides of a war, their meetings are fragile and tense, but something keeps pulling them back — to the dust, the silence, the quiet space between past and future, where nothing is said and everything matters.

    [A very long slow burn spanning season 1 and season 2]

    Summary

    A lost Piltie wanders into a Zaunite repair shop one day and the sister cities are never the same. Ekko's hand in it all is small but pivotal. Ever heard of the domino effect?

    In other words: Act 1 from the perspective of the boy savior long before he ever thought of saving anybody.

    Summary

    "That was four of Jinx’s parents dead now, and they all walked alongside her into the dark streets, silent ghosts of pain, unintelligible whispers pulling at her mind though her eyes stayed resolutely on the wet cobblestones and the wobbly lights reflecting off of them.
    Four. Two she could barely remember, whose shapes wavered when she did allow herself a glance, one forever engulfed in a ball of fire, whose screams still woke her up sometimes at night, and now the drenched, drowned shape of the last, whose steps squished just behind her heels."

    Arcane modern AU with a bit less murdering than Arcane. We start all the way at the bottom so the only way to go is up! Eventual Timebomb focus.

    Jinx tries to survive after killing a father figure for the second time, both desperate for connection and rejecting affection at every turn. Slowly she will find people to attach to and reconnect with some of her lost family, but still she keeps them at arm's length, deathly afraid of jinxing them.
    And then there's the ever-looming threat of the literal skeletons in her closet resurfacing...

    Summary

    “Did you really mean what you said inside?” Ekko asked.

    “Mean what?”

    “The whole ‘you wanted to feel pretty and wear a nice dress for this evening’ thing.”

    He watched her open her eyes and she looked at him before pushing down her skirts and gliding her hands over the fabric.

    “We never got this kind of stuff in Zaun. I just wanted to experience it just this once,” Jinx murmured.

    Summary

    “Jinx?” he breathed as he kept gravitating toward her.

    He couldn’t control his feet anymore, nearly standing on her toes now. She tried to muster a smile, but it never fully emerged beyond the corner of her mouth.

    “How many times are you going to fall for this, little man?”

    -----------------------------------------------------------------

    Six times Ekko saw Jinx after the Battle of Piltover (and one time Jinx saw Vi)
