Wanna make out?

Keigos laying in bed with you at 2 am still awake. Unable to sleep he turns to his side to look at you laying on your back and staring up at the ceiling.

"...wanna make out?"

He watches as your brow furrows before relaxing and turning to the side and propping yourself up on your elbow, which he mirrored.

"We gotta get to bed kei,"

He looks at your pretty face with stars in his eyes, not even bothering to pay much attention to your retort.

"We should make out,"

He watches in adoration as you roll your eyes before pushing him down and straddling his hips. Dipping your head down to press a kiss to his lips which he eagerly returned. Chaste turned into hot and sloppy, drool dripping down his chin as you shove your tongue down his throat and he does the same.

You guys should really make out more

Rest your eyes love

"I don't deserve you" he carded his hands through your hair gently as you lay on top of him, your cheek pressed against his chest. The way he said it felt so depressing. Cold and hollow.

"Stop saying that, Kei" you sigh, lifting your head to glance at him. His amber eyes were dull as he met your gaze. "I love you,"

"You shouldn't...I can't give you what you need," his adam's apple bobs as he swallows down the never-ending bile rising in his throat.

"Oh really? And what is it I need that you can't provide, mm?"

"Company...I'm away so often, baby...I can't even promise I'll come home every night...don't pretend you don't resent me for that," something had gotten to his head today because it was rare for him to talk like this. It happened. But never often.

Your palms flattened against his bare chest. Running up and down his flesh, feeling every little bump and divot in his skin. The feeling of sparse chest hair against your palms. You wish he wasn't so shaved all the time. It felt nice. His heart hammered beneath his skin. A cavity forever carved into his chest that you wanted to spend the rest of your life trying to fill.

"I don't resent you, Keigo..." you whisper, your hands moving up to cup the right side of his face. You watched as his eyes closed and he nuzzled against the cool feeling of your palm in the heat of the bedroom. The room was shrouded in a suffocating bleakness. The feeling clawing at your throat, threatening to close it.

"I can't be the man you need, dove" He let his eyes flutter open again, heavy with sleep. Something you'd wish he'd subcome to instead of torturing himself.

"You all I need..."

"I'm not Hawks..."

"I don't want Hawks, I fell in love with Keigo. Keigo is who matters, that's you. Not Hawks." You sigh, letting your hands move from cupping his face into his hair. Feeling the soft strands beneath the pads of your fingers.

"What if I'm poisoning you...I'm not a good person," you caught the way his eye twitched when you grabbed his hand and placed it on your cheek.

"You won't hurt me Kei...touching me won't ruin me. I'm here forever. Through the bad and good days. I love you all the same," you smile softly, nudging your cheek against his palm which still felt tense as it cupped your face.

"How can you be so sure?" You huffed, biting your bottom lip until you felt a familiar liquid and tasted a twinge of iron.

"The funny thing is...I can't. How can anyone be so sure of anything, right? But despite it all, I love you and regardless of how you may feel I trust you. And guess what?" Your lips quirk up.

"What?"

"I think you're the best," you punctuate with a kiss to the tip of his nose.

"Now sleep, you deserve to rest"

For now, it's about 50/50 for whether or not these mysterious people that were included in the new trailer are members of the Gloriously Evolved. For fun, I'm going to break down why these people might be entirely unrelated to Viktor.

First, their bodies are clearly inlaid with gold, which does not replace their flesh. In the brief scene we get of these people the gold works as a conduit between their melodies and the magic around them. Meanwhile hexcore has entirely transformed Viktor's hand and leg into metal.

We know that Viktor's entire hand and leg have turned completely into metal because not only do his limbs make metal clinking noises and conduct electricity, but the animators on Bridging the Rift confirm it.

I've also seen some mention that the markings on the faces of these unknown characters represent Viktor's touch when he "healed" them. Upon closer inspection each character does have a five markings on their face, but they're detailed runes rather than Viktor's hand print, implying this may be related to a more intricate ritual rather than Viktor simply laying his hand on them and transforming them with the hexcore.

Really, these people have magic more similar to Mel Medarda. Mel is the one who appears to wear magical gold embedded in her skin to serve as protection magic. What Mel is doing with magic is likely far more simple compared to these people, but it's in the same vein. And that may be the entire point.

Viktor and his cult are the outliers. Whatever Viktor has done in season 1, and what he will continue to do in season 2 is a divergence (possibly perversion) of how magic should work/be treated in the rest of Runeterra, which makes sense! Viktor literally said he doesn't know what he's doing, he just keeps going.

What's likely happening in this scene is that some sect of mages, maybe they're acolytes of the mage that saved Jayce have become aware of the magical shenanigans in PnZ... and it's bad.

Then again, I haven't seen the leaks. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this is all worth pointing out. (This is not a solicitation to tell what happens in the leaks).
