    Summary

    After getting lost in Ghost City, Xie Lian bargains away years of servitude to the Gambler’s Den to help a man in need. He dons the robes of a worker and hides his face and life behind an enchanted mask, protecting himself from the city's denizens. Xie Lian finds an unexpected home in Ghost City before he ever sees the lord of it, the infamous Hua Cheng. When he finally does, something about himself seems to catch the attention of the Ghost King, slowly striking up an unusual friendship. Xie Lian must figure out how to navigate his burgeoning feelings, how to keep his identity to himself, and how to get over a ghost so clearly in love with someone else.

    Summary

    A sequel to isolation.

    Jayce gets Viktor out of Piltover, and nothing is as easy as it should be.

    “I feel as if I’m not quite myself,” Viktor says.

    Jayce is quiet, and the silence stretches between them. When Jayce finally speaks, he says, “I don’t feel like myself either.”

    Viktor meets his eyes. It’s a marvel, he thinks, that even when he is most lost to his own mind, Jayce can still follow.

    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    *

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

    Summary

    When an unkempt, handsome stranger stumbled into Viktor's office he knew he had to do one thing: Figure out what was going on. Failing that, he had to do another: Climb him like a tree.
    ~
    "I ... I-I can't", he stuttered, breathy voice muffled by his own hands, "I can't, I ... can't do this ... not to..."
    "What...", Viktor began, unsure what to make of this. Then he saw broad shoulders twitch upwards, heaving rhythmically as the stranger's body was wracked with deep, desperate sobs.
    "Ehh..." He was frozen, watching the man cry on his office floor. Large hands rubbed at misty eyes, pressed against grimy skin, dragged through tangled hair as fat tears rolled down his face and a blotchy flush spread across his cheeks. It was a heart-achingly pathetic sight that went on and on and Viktor, despite his confusion, could not help but be moved by it.
