    Summary

    After the doctor hurts Rio, a freshly-orphaned Viktor is taken in at The Last Drop. Years later, there's a riot on the bridge.

    In which child-Viktor refuses to abandon Silco; an act of devotion that changes the trajectory of Zaun's uprising. While Vander negotiates with Enforcers, Silco single-parents a revolution in the dark. Someone has to fund his son's endless charity work and vaccinate zaunish kids.

    There's siblings-of-divorce, waverider eggs, volatile crystals...and a Piltie wandering around the Lanes looking for blue gems and a ghost.

    Illustrated! +more art on tumblr, bsky, twitter, insta.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    An utter masterpiece that tears my heart apart and heals it in the same moment.
    Amazing characterwork, plotting and interconnected plots á la Arcane.
    Viktor and Jayce's friendship is so precious. I need them to be happy for the rest of their lives.

    Summary

    She burned Viktor’s name. No one else would. He was cursed now. A bad omen. A villain to scare children. If you don’t go play outside every now and then, you’ll end up like the Machine Herald. Don’t go too deep into the Sumps. That’s where the Machine Herald lives, waiting to take your soul and turn you into one of his puppets. That was not the Viktor she knew.
    The Viktor she knew had an expressive face. A brilliant mind she had thought of cultivating before Jayce came and they snatched each other from her. She remembered him as he was. The young man who would roll his eyes behind Heimerdinger’s back whenever he mistook a deadline by months. The man who broke every law, pretended to be sneaking Jayce Talis into his bedroom, and changed the world. The man who fought against his death with all he had and who Jayce loved. Like a brother, he’d said. Like something else, she’d thought.

    Mel mourns. Jayce and Viktor find her again.

    Summary

    Something pitter-patters across the roof. He ignores it, imagining a bird, and then almost topples over the windowsill when a swarm of hell butterflies take flight, flickering above his head like a wispy cloud of storms.

    Snow moves in the corner of his vision like a drape, or a cloak, or perhaps even a kimono –

    “Wait!” Ichigo shouts, twisting to get a better look, but as blood rushes in his ears and his heart pounds, a chaotic exhilaration, there’s no further sight of whatever or whoever it had been.
