Summary
A bath would have set the world to rights, he thought. Nothing like a stew in lukewarm water until one’s fingers prune to put the mind at ease. It was his whole intention, his top priority—but Copia sat on the edge of his bed, suited and booted with his paints crusting off, until the sun had long dipped below the mountains and the fire had sputtered into cinders.
One night as Frater Imperator.

Summary
The gap granted him a view of a vast room, empty besides a table with four chairs and only one occupant. Frater Imperator sat with his elbow on the table, holding a spoonful of egg-fried rice.
The night before meeting the new guy, somebody spies on a family dinner.

Summary
And so Jayce Talis has crawled out of the depths of the Undercity and through the ruins of Piltover and found himself a second chance. There has only been one person on his mind. One that he wishes he could go back to, even if it changes nothing.
His entire train of thought derails as the stranger lifts his head. Short, sharp exhales make little clouds of vapor puff from his lips. His fingers, blackened with dirt and wrapped with shreds of his own clothing, curl into a fist around the haft of his weapon, leaning against it to support his own weight. It’s the eyes that drive the air from Viktor’s lungs.
He knows those eyes.
He knows that face.
“Jayce?”
At the sound of his own name, Jayce recoils. His teeth grit together as he grabs his head to turn himself away, breaking the hold of his stare. The intensity of it lingers though. Like the bright flash of a camera. The look on his face stains itself to the forefront of Viktor’s mind. He looked like… almost like an animal.

Summary
He pictures the funeral sometimes.
He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.
He pictures swallowing them himself.
Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.
