I just wanted to post few tweets about Dark Jayce and Attic wife Viktor AU.
Why I wrote background for this universe AU…at 1 am!? XD
P.S. Possibly will delete in the morning.
Ok, so let's get started. In this AU Silco took Viktor under his wing, when he was a child. During the protest on Bridge Viktor disappeared, so he was counted as one of the people who were killed during the protest. In the end the grief of losing a kid, who for Silco was as his own son led to a situation, where Silco found Vander’s letter and was able to reconsider his relationship with Vander and for them we got something like an alternative universe, but with Vi alive.
Jayce's invention of the Hextech took place later than in series, but it was because of his “partner” 's delicate health, so he spent a few years stabilising it. Furthermore, only few people saw his partner, since because of his health he spent all his time in Talis estate and home lab.
Now let's go a few years back, Jayce met Viktor, when they were kids and he got lost. For him Viktor was his saviour, who found him in scary dark Undersity and brought back home (to Bridge, where Ximena found him).
For a few years Jayce was sneaking into the Zaun to meet with Viktor. He was obsessed with him. Viktor was smart, cute and so beautiful and Jayce was one of the best things in his life (from Viktor words), but that Silco showed up, and Jayce stopped to be the only good thing. There were Silco, his friends and their stupid kids. Silco through his connection was able to get Viktor books and staff that he needed for his study.
Now during their meeting, they weren't speaking only about their research and them. And this is after everything Jayce has done, when every time he went down there he risk his future career and life for Viktor. But Viktor's smile is so bright, when he is mentioning that Powder said her first word, that Jayce just smiles back. He will just wait for the opportunity to show Vik that he is the only thing that he needs.
And soon he got his opportunity. Just before the Bridge Riot, Jayce was sneaking into Zaun as usual (at that time he was around 17 and Viktor 18) and heard people in Zaun whispering about it and decided to use the situation. He just needs to give Viktor his mothers special tea.
During the Riot, Jayce was able to sneak unconscious Vik into his house, where he prepared a room for him in their attic. His mother was very understanding and supportive during all preparations, she was saying that his father was also stubborn at the start of their relationship, but in the end it was a blessed union.
Now the just need some time, Viktor will understand that Jayce is the only thing he needs in his live. Jayce will look after him and take care of Viktor. They will fix his health and than continue their research. And later Jayce will give Viktor his name. They just need some time and Viktor will understand. Chain on the leg and lock on the door is just, so Viktor won’t do something stupid.
Few days later his mom brought a list with names of people who got killed during the Riot from both sides. Viktor's name was there, now no one will look for him. Viktor WILL UNDERSTAND…
