Hey all, I've been watching Arcane and am now looking for something rather specific. I'd like to do a Viktor/Jayce AU set either in the modern age, or the Atomic Age/Cold War. Viktor and Jayce would still be close collaborators who pioneered some major scientific development (maybe nuclear related). I'd like this to be a slow-burn, angsty thing – maybe Viktor is somewhat obviously in love with Jayce, but won't admit it out loud, while Jayce denies his feelings for Viktor (and perhaps altogether denies that he has any romantic/sexual feelings towards men) and pursues other women. I'm also thinking that, as Viktor's physical health deteriorates, Jayce becomes more involved in Viktor's life, just helping him out with things he can't do independently anymore.
This AU could be overtly and subtly political. Subtly political in the sense that Viktor and Jayce are navigating homophobia/a shitty healthcare system/academic bureaucracy/etc. Anndd it could be overtly political in that they're directly dealing with the political implications of their discovery/invention, and Cold War or modern politics. I'm thinking Viktor would be Russian and Jayce would be American, and this would primarily be set in the US.
I want to play Viktor, so I'm looking for someone to play Jayce. Ideally we'd add a bunch of side characters too though, who can be of varying degrees of importance.
Then, just a little about me, and what I want from you, just to make sure we're compatible...
