Summary
"Alright," Erik puts his hands on his hips. "Jesus. Who came up with this, seriously? Why are the teaspoons all the way in the back - you drink so much tea, it doesn't make sense to have them... and the- ist das ein Feuerzeug? Why is it over there with the knives?"
"Can't help you there," Charles comments serenely. "Probably my mother, who prioritised accessibility of the corkscrew over most other things in life."
or: Charles doesn't take well to returning to his childhood home. Erik makes soup and rearranges the cutlery drawer.

Summary
Erik is looming over him, a black hole of nothingness obscuring most of the sky, and can't he tell? Can't he tell that he is terrifying - a splintering lie of a person, a flat, unending pit in the fabric of reality, no more his Erik than a crude sketch, a second-hand description, a golem from the stories of Erik's childhood that he'd whispered to Charles at night sometimes, little pieces of his history shaped into gifts.
or: Charles experiences Shaw's death, a narrowly-averted war, and the disorienting powers of the helmet in rapid succession, and then gets shot. He deserves a little panic attack, as a treat.

Summary
“Okay,” Martin says quietly. “Okay. What do you want, Jon?”
“I want us,” Jon mumbles, watching Martin’s thumb drawing circles over his pulse point. “I want you, I want to stay in a relationship with you and do everything we used to do. I just don’t want, um… intercourse.”
or: mum said it’s my turn on the “Jon comes out to Martin” fic

Summary
They call it “The Rally.” One last moment of clarity before the end.
Jayce knows it’s begun when he stumbles into the kitchen and finds Viktor already there, upright and alert, pouring milk into his mug.
Viktor, for the first time in weeks, is using his rollator. Not just leaning on it, but moving confidently. It's a rare enough sight that Jayce stops short in the doorway and rubs his eyes to make sure he isn’t imagining this.
Or
In the days leading up to Viktor’s death, Jayce does what he can with the time they’re given.

Summary
What if Héctor made it on that train? What if he didn't collapse in the street on the way home? He reached the station, climbed on board, and began the trip back to see his family after so long apart.
...But not because Ernesto didn't share a final toast with him. Not because his best friend had a change of heart at the last moment about poisoning him. Héctor reached the train because Ernesto didn't use enough to kill him immediately.

Summary
How would the scene have played out if Milo had more than just a little cut on his shoulder, or if the Atlanteans weren't scared away by the digger? My hella-long take on this idea. It's better than this summary makes it sound, I promise. Audience category is for blood.

Summary
Milo Thatch has never had a problem with being taken for a man. It's only made life easier for her, to be perfectly honest. After all, if the enlightened men at the museum who she was a woman, they never would have hired her to take care of the boiler in the first place.

Summary
AU; As Piltover was thrust into war overseas, Councilor Talis joined the efforts to defend and protect the City of Progress and all its ideals.
By the time he returned, he’s a changed man. During his time fighting for his survival, he thought of nothing but his partner and returning to his side, creating a marriage of science and magic together in Hextech where he belonged,
In the lab, with Viktor.
Meanwhile, Viktor has been threatened with exile due to his Zaunite bloodline, despite being Hextech's co-founder; without Jayce's protection, it means nothing. Without a Piltover name, the only way to protect everything they built together was to marry into a Piltover family.
Cassandra gave a knife-sharp smile. “He was courted quite ardently during your absence. It seemed he finally found a suitable match.”
This was what Jayce came home to: news that Viktor had given his heart and hand to some noblesse bastard while Jayce was fighting a war in his name.
-
Or,Jayce returns from war during Viktor’s wedding feast with plans to take back what belongs to him.
