As Above, So Below / Viktor x Reader / Arcane Fanfic
29 parts Ongoing MatureViktor (Arcane) x Male Reader [18+]
Starts cozy, will get darker and have NSFW chapters later on as this is a bit of a slow burn.
Story takes place in Zaun a couple years before Viktor is accepted into the Academy in Piltover. After your parents are killed in a raid by the enforcers, you make your living by working as a barista and bartender along with some shady side hustles as Vander starts to prepare for an uprising. Viktor enters your chaotic life with a calm confidence that you're immediately drawn to. You find yourself spending more and more time with him as he preps for his admission into the Academy, but when the time comes to join the rebellion, your life takes an unexpected turn that neither of you are prepared for.
About the Reader [Y/n] - He/him pronouns, bi, vers, witty, and still figuring life out even though he had to grow up relatively quickly. Only physical features mentioned is you have muscles and are a smidge shorter than Viktor (newbie mistake, but you're like 18 when it's mentioned you can still grow and be taller, do it :))
[Y/n] also has a backstory/depth/history that impacts your interactions with Viktor as well as other characters. There's some OC tendencies in there, but this is in 2nd person POV so I'm not sure what to call it but just want to be transparent there.
Also there's more warnings than this but this is an explicit fic. There's drinking, smoking, sex, sex work, killing, all that good stuff so if that's not your bag you won't like this one.
