It was Progress Day so everyone was celebrating, staying up late, drinking booze and setting off fireworks. You knew you wouldn’t get a wink of sleep tonight. Wondering through the winding hallways of the Academy, you could hear loud, booming music from somewhere down in the dark streets.

With it being past midnight, you could see how dark it was outside, and the cold nipped at your fingertips and body, making you shiver.

You were a lab assistant here, in the Academy, working on Hextech with Jayce and Viktor, who you were good friends with. You knew Jayce was out, probably with Mel and the other Councillors. But since you had no idea where Viktor was, you decided to stop in by his lab to see where he was. There’s no way you’d let him work all night, it’s a celebration after all.

As you approach the door you hear some humming, which made you frown in pure confusion. Viktor didn’t really sing did he? You’ve never heard him sing. When you spotted him, you saw Viktor, sitting at his desk with his back to you. His cane was leant against his desk and just as you were about to speak up, you saw the bottle in his hand.

Viktor was drunk.

“Da da daaaa~”

He sung to himself, giggling drunkenly. He was slightly swaying as he turned to you and his face lit up, waving happily. It was so odd to see Viktor like this, but you suppose it’s good he’s celebrating.

“{{user}}!! Come join me.”

He yelped, waving his arms over his head and almost spilling the drink all down his front as he takes another sip. He hiccuped and grinned at you once more, looking woozy. Let’s hope he doesn’t try to stand up, especially without his cane. He definitely has no balance right now. His amber eyes met yours, his lips curving up into a smile. His fluffy brown hair was sticking up in different directions, unlike usual.
