Thrilled to reveal my work for #jayvikbb2025

Thank you @jayvikbigbang.bsky.social for hosting! #jayvik #art

A digital illustration of Jayce and Viktor from Arcane / League of Legends. Expansive white beach landscape inspired by Big Sur. Jayce and Viktor sitting on a beach blanket. Viktor pointing at an open-faced book shared between them. Resting on a stack of books is Viktor's newly modified crutch, a circular attachment to the bottom. A sandcastle replicating Piltover cityscape sits on page-right. A green scuttle crab is perched atop a seaweed covered rock in the foreground. In the background is a white-stone and blue roofed cottage tucked away on a beach bluff.

Sometimes u just gotta take a break to daydream about Viktor

A chibi doodle of Jayce sitting at a desk, ignoring his paperwork, with his head in his palms. He is looking up with a blush and dreamy expression and he’s sighing wistfully

An image of Vander from season one of Arcane. The placement of the speech bubble is meant to indicate he is saying the original post that's being quoted. Zaundads / Vanco is implied.

Viktor will seduce Jayce into having sex in the lab and then complain that no work has been done this day

Jayvik NSFW art (S1 Cis Jayce / Trans Viktor). In the lab, Jayce sat on a chair, Viktor riding him. Jayce is in bliss, Viktor is firmly holding Jayce's face and pectoral and smiling mischeviously

Side characters like Mylo and Claggor, Scar etc are also in there, likely where you'd expect them to be as well and there are a few characters, like Sky and Heimerdinger, that i simply am Not Sure what to do with just yet...

Anyway! Thank you for prompting me to get this all out there!!!

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

I thiiink that's everyone????
shocked SHOCKED!!! I didn't go off and start explain entire character arcs lmao....
Kept it Relatively Tight
At the end of the day it Is kind of a very off-book retelling of the show Kind Of

Mostly it's a big mess of plotlines that all coalesce in some grand finale!

In her quest to understand and use the megamycete to bring back he daughter.
(Something happened that prevented Mel from become a perfect vessel for eva when she was very young but i haven't fleshed that out yet, but similarly to Singed; Ambessa isn't here because Miranda fills that narrative role)

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

Which I believe just leaves Mel.
Mel sits at Mother Miranda's side, her liason, her second hand, to be defered to for absolute authority when mother miranda is not present and to hear and interact more directly with the people of the village than Miranda can spare time for

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

a nye unlimited powersource, solve the villages power issues for good, no more black outs and shut downs, no more floods in the resevoir, no more being shakled to ancient technologies... It would improve the lives of everyone in the village!
If they can just get it to work....
(Hint; it goes Bad)

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

He is just as, if not smarter than jayce is And he has direct access to a supply of Cadou.. which is perfect because what Jayce is trying to build is a Cadou Engine (with a design stolen from Heisenberg when he was much younger)

Viktor, a young man from the resevoir and Moreau's protege (he does most of moreau's supposed experiments while the lords own intelligence declines, singed is not in this story because Moreau fills his spot narratively)

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

(similarly the Kirammen's are patrons of house Dimitrescu)
He makes tools for the village along with his mother (Strong Ximena Lets Go) and spends all his non-forge time working on his Secret Project.
Only 1 other soul comes to know the nature of his research and experimentation;

Caitlynn Kirammen. Daughter of the Head of the House Cassandra Kirammen.
As they grow closer the pair devise a plan to smuggle Vi out of the castle and back to her sister..

Jayce lives in the heart of the Village as a member of House Talis, a Patron House to House Heisenberg

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

By hand and by rallying to whole of the people of The Village to help..

Up in castle Dimitrescu Vi, after similarly going on trial like/with Vander, is reliquished to the care of Lady Dimitrescu, where she's put to work in the kitchens. Here she meets The Head Huntress for Castle Dimitrscu;

Back in the resevoir Vander fights to just keep the community Stable, step up where his lord falls behind, until he is put to trial post-cannery and is reliquiested to Moreau where he becomes a Varcolac.. Varcovander...
Ekko is here as well, stealthily working on bringing aid To the resevoir

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

Which is why Certain Parties [Silco, Ekko, Vander to a lesser degree and Jayce and Viktor in their own way] are fighting to give power to their community [both literal and figurative])

Bartholomew @bartholomewillu.bsky.social · 11h

Of other portions of the village [who honestly also don't have it too good] inconsistent power, frequent flooding, polluted waters, always being Wet and Cold, it's a strong community... But a rough one. And their lord may be able to hold it together but he certainly lacks the faculty to Help >
