  1. Summary

    To Chain a God and whatever epilogue stories I decide to write. While I have no plans for long-form sequels, I do have a few shorter follow-ups in mind, further exploring this version of Jayvik and the Arcane setting.

    Summary

    “I just introduced myself,” Jayce repeats defensively. He’s not sure what’s wrong with that, but the look on Viktor’s face is withering.

    “You gave Singed your name,” Viktor says bluntly, “Offered it up on a platter, and he took it from you. He holds your name now, and he is free to command you as he sees fit.”

    Jayce’s brain short-circuits. “What?”

    Viktor walks over to one of the many piles of books and picks up one of the thicker, dustier tomes. “Humans are all the same,” he mutters. “You all are obsessed with the arcane and what can be done with it, but you never take the time to learn the rules.”

    --

    After Viktor goes missing, Jayce takes matters into his own hands, then accidentally gets himself imprisoned right alongside his partner. Or, the fae-au.

    Summary

    Viktor’s voice is an ethereal whisper in Jayce’s thoughts as light blazes through the darkness of space like a supernova.

    "Live, Jayce."

    Jayce abruptly finds himself on the precipice again.

    ---

    Following the events of the series finale, Viktor once again saves Jayce and unwittingly revives himself as well. Viktor is determined to undo his past mistakes, even if that means leaving Jayce behind. That idea is complicated by their souls now being intertwined.

    And fate isn’t done with them yet.

    Summary

    There is a thing, and it is moving. He imagines he sees the back of its head, brown and life-bleached. A slash of blue rags swaddling a creature of stumbles and stubbed toes, faun-fresh footsteps over terrain that feels five miles below.

    There are cords. They are ashen greyandpurple, kintsugi spun between the threads. Too soft to be metal, too hard to be flesh.

    Viktor is not here.

    -

    Or, post canon, Jayce and Viktor are back in the land of the living but Viktor is experiencing more than a little disconnect with the experience of existing.

    Summary

    Aymeric and Estinien are in love. It would just be great, Lucia thinks, if they would tell each other some time before the Eighth Umbral Calamity.

    What's lying in the bed is somehow not The Azure Dragoon, former possessed of Nidhogg, or even Aymeric's coarse-yet-loyal friend, but one of the most beautiful men she has ever laid eyes on.

    To her everlasting shame, Lucia lets out a small laugh—a sound of pure shock.

    Aymeric tuts. "Yes, quite. He looks terrible."

    Terrible.
