    Summary

    Maes Hughes had been normal for as long as he could remember.

    That was why he was surprised when he saw an eerie, flickering vision of himself, sitting at the bar he was about to drag Roy into, taking a few sips from a frosted glass, and then collapse onto the floor.

    (Messing with time has its consequences, and Maes witnesses them firsthand)

    Summary

    He pictures the funeral sometimes.

    He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.

    He pictures swallowing them himself.

     

    Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I'm not a talented enough writer to express how perfect this fic is, so I won't even try. It's heartbreaking, there's nothing in it that could make you happy. It's also cathartic, in a way. It's human, it let me truly cry for the first time in months. In some twisted way, it made me feel less bad. This is the Passerine or In Another Life of JayVik
