I was thinking... It seems to me that you mostly like the post-canon character states of Jayce and Viktor? I think you like the more confident and self-aware post-trauma Jayce (when he is present) and the more insecure Viktor, or... As if he has an enormous guilt to overcome.

Will there ever be something more naive from you with their more naive, hopeful and yearning versions?

Coming home (but not to you)

(also, i do have something planned for after my medieval au if the hyperfixation is strong enough and the fandom doesn't tire me out)

update im adding to this because i cant stop thinking about it do people find my coming home jayce... confident? i was very much going for an 'i'm sorry for my migraines' and 'when I'm in the airport in the security I think I magically have a gun' kind of vibe KDLFJHSDkl

also said this in the tags but season 2 didn't even start coming out until chapter 11 the full thing wasn't out until chapter 12 so if they came off post canon inspired that is very unintentional DKJFHSLDFj

#DSKFJHSDFKLJDSF #i also think viktor has much layered insecurities throughout arcane he's not the cool suave guy the fanom pretends he is #but coming home is definetly not representative of them post canon as season 2 didnt come out until after chapter 10 #jayce in coming home though boy oh boy that is naive jayce #granted at the end of coming home i think they become very different than who they are on the show #this is intentional #as i feel they learn to develop something very beautiful #i also definetly wrote them as a bit different and more innocent than themselves throughout #as i felt there were ways that the modern world would soften them a bit #so i am surprised to hear this #granted. jayce in coming home does have a big burden of guilt #but id still say i based them on their season 1 selves as i did not have season 2 to go on #idk does that make sense?#i guess you're right in the sense that the other 2 i wrote are post-canon states by design #but by word count alone DKFLJSD #idk though this jayce in my medieval au is more hardened primairly because he's a knight and has seen way more death (and caused it)#but he still has his moments #literally first chapter he tries to hold viktors hand while high on pain medicine and his mom has to tell him to stop #hes not gonna be like.#completely devoid of his yearning traits #in fact id say the yearning for jayce in this one is very very intense #very i want to swear my oaths to YOU kind of thing #idk in coming home i dont find present jayce self aware especially at the start #he BECOMEs self aware but id stay he starts out quite in denial/silly/immature #sorry if this was sassy KDJFHSDKLFj #i just thought huh wow no i very much wrote coming home before there was any post canon to speak of #also jayce in coming home was NOTTTTT supposed to be confident lmfao so if thats the common perception that is very on me #in this medieval AU viktor's deal is pretty different im focusing on different aspects of his character #even with the mass amount of guilt and grief he comes off very witty and confident on the surface and its only through jayce being #obeservational that those walls begin to crumble
