Chapter one of my zaunite viktor fic has finally been released!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/65896030/chapters/169752850

Excerpt from this chapter:

“What a naughty boy, stealing a cane from a cripple,” The man said with a feigned pout that made his bottom lip plump.

“The hell is wrong with you?” Jayce asked him, absolutely baffled.

“Eh, too many things to list, my dear.” The flush Jayce found returning to his face almost prevented him from noticing the slender hand reaching into a flap in his corset towards his hip, the movement pulling the sides of it away from the man enough for Jayce to finally notice that the man had a holstered pistol. Fear overpowered him and he lunged towards the man, knowing he had to stop him before that pistol could be raised.

A flash of purple, and the man's hand was at his throat, brandishing a knife rather than the gun. Jayce froze; he could not see the knife but he felt its wickedly sharp and curved edge begin to cut into him as he swallowed. This close, Jayce could see the mole under the man’s eye shift as he glared at him, and those eyes- sharp eyes, made of honey that flashed with purple.

was gonna write a zaun!viktor headcanon list but all that came to mind was that viktor keeps a cane at home that’s been jinx-ed out. blue and pink doodles etched all over it.

viktor props it onto the desk he’s working out—schematics for silco (those will be jinx-ed out soon, too). but when he turns around, his cane has conveniently vanished. it’s only when he hears the sound of humming where he turns around to see jinx adding another doodle of a monkey snapping its jaws at him.

he turns back to his work so jinx has her fun. sometimes, when the pain keeps him up at night, he’ll look over the different sketches doodled onto the metal of it.

Another what if: Zaune!Viktor, Silco's right hand and a criminal mastermind. Jayce would fall into his angry beard-phase way faster under his influence.

(Sorry if it’s too vampire-coded, I’m just way too eager for Nosferatu’s premiere)

I have no clue if you like other peoples au ideas, but I’ve had an arcane/Jayvik au for the longest time. This is a long message btw.

Basically, Piltover gives Zaun their independance years earlier, like before the Vander/Silco betrayal, but also basically stops Zaunites from coming into Piltover. This changes a few things. For example, Vander and Silco no longer fight each other, the kids never get to Jayces apartment, and Viktor never goes to the academy. Because of this, and Viktor’s character, he kind of lives with Singed or in the library until he’s 14, where he encounters the kids, maybe helps them with an injury (he knows from reading or his own injuries) and gets adopted into the last drop. He becomes the sort of mechanic/doctor of the main area in Zaun, and because it’s impossible for me to do angst, he can make augmentations, although they are lesser quality. He gets 4 younger siblings and two dads who show him how to interact with the barons and be better at politics/public speaking.

Meanwhile, in Piltover, they basically lost all they labour and, when one of them finds Jayce’s experiments, skip over the whole ‘illegal’ part because, for the city of progress, they aren’t really progressing, but Jayce can’t figure out this one problem with Hextech. In an effort, they print pages of the calculations in newspapers and ask anyone who can understand them to come forward to the counsel. No one in Piltover can, but once it leaks to Zaun, Vander and co realise that, yeah, the super smart guy who’s basically been giving them healthcare and also revolutionised the industrial industry could probably do it. Just the first meeting being Jayce and the council seeing this small, scrawny Zaunite completely fix their problem while subtly insulting them, Jayce immediately wants him on the project, refuses any other appointments, that’s it for him. Also, more Zaunite Viktor, (possibly tattooed? Fashion?) is my jam.

Ahhhh yeah!!! Oh I love this, yes please send me things lol!

Yes I honestly love the AU's that have Viktor mentoring Powder which feels like would fit right in here. Heck even Vi could teach him some self defensive moves.

If we're really talking about Viktor making improvements, I feel like I read somewhere that Viktor started out making air filters for Zaun factories? Not sure how canon that is but I like that idea, it's possible that without Piltover, Viktor, Vander, and Silco go through and make sweeping changes to how these factories operate and Silco starts renegotiating contracts. Which could get Piltover's attention. I mean could you imagine some sort of gala where titans of industry are invited. Vander has his hellion kids in tow for getting free food, and Silco and Viktor walk in, Silco sees Jayce across the room, whispers something to Viktor behind his hand and they both laugh.

And Jayce watches all this and just Kill Bill Sirens. XDDD

Also yes Viktor TATTOOS I would go feral!

(Also I never reallllly talk about this because this is a Jayvik blog, but I would love to see Viktor and Silco interact. I really think he would foster Viktor's talents and teach him how to take charge of a room. Like I can't imagine in canon Silco's eye doesn't have some degree of blindness or light sensitivity, but like the way he wields himself makes you feel that he no weaknesses. Just a hyper confident Viktor would be a force to be reckoned with.)

I need some input please!! I am working on designing some Zaun!viktor outfits but I’m struggling with the color palette. I want to use brass/copper instead of steel because Zaun instead of piltover but I’m just not liking how it’s looking. I don’t know if I should stick with the clothes pallette and change the metal, or keep the metal and change the clothes pallette (and if so- to what?)

[bbnojayvik]

progress on my zaun!viktor outfits now that I've decided on the color palette.

Not finished yet but I’m finally making a drawing of my zaun viktor. Ref screenshot below the cut
