Summary
Silco's... not a good parent. As much as he loves his daughter, he has a few flaws when it comes to her. But he can explain it all away, from slipping drugs into her tea to keep her his perfect little girl to keeping her safe away from the world. He can even explain giving her to the Enforcers in exchange for Zaun - after all, they've given their word that Jinx is not to be harmed.
Ekko, meanwhile, went to the bridge upon overhearing the Enforcers' plans to capture Jinx on their radios - she's too far gone, and as the last person who knew Powder as well as the leader of the Firelights, it's his job to put her down.
But after rescuing her instead upon realizing Jinx is still at least a little Powder, when he learns that 'Jinx' the persona isn't real but instead a defense mechanism, upon learning about the drugs in her system and the pain and fear inflicted on her, he insists she can be saved.
And thus begins the rest of her life.
(Featuring childhood-friends-to-enemies-to-friends-to-lovers Timebomb, a complicated relationship between Jinx and Silco, genius Firelight bioengineer Jinx/Powder, and Jinx proving she's stronger and better than anyone gives her credit for.)

Summary
And what does Ekko do when he feels haunted by her ghost?
His solace.
The one that keeps her with him even when she’s not actually there.
His fingers twitch in defiance. Just a few inches away, he gets her. Gets every version of her he’s ever known, and every way he’s ever seen her. Every captivating smile, every teasing glance, every rebellious middle finger she’s thrown his way.
He shouldn’t, he really shouldn’t.
But god help, he reaches for it anyway– almost against his will.
He opens his sketchbook– the one he’s kept of her for many years– going through the countless new drawings he’s added since she’s arrived. He doesn’t have to wait until he runs into her in the lanes for him to get a glimpse of her. And so, with every thing she does that he can’t get out of his head, he draws it, capturing the moment in the only way he knows how to.
Even ink isn’t permanent enough in comparison to the big ‘Jinx’ engraved in him.
(from ch. 8)

Summary
'And as those wide eyes pierced her soul, Mel considered if she should just let it alone. She was not so brimming with love, and this child clearly needed more than she could give. She really oughtn't to bring herself trouble. This was not her forte, not her place, not within the boundaries of the comfort zone she had built around herself since her exile. She had no maternal instincts, and for a dreaded moment she reconsidered whether she should just turn the girl in and be done with it.
And then the child leapt forth and latched onto her waist, knocking her to the ground.
Well.'

Summary
A Timebomb classmate and modeling AU.
Ekko’s worked hard to get into the Academy - Zaunites don’t get to come here a lot, and after years of fighting against Silco and running the Firelights, he’s decided he’s earned the ability to pursue a PhD and does so. However, is the girl with blue hair, the girl who used to be a mobster until Silco died a few months ago, giving a good impression of the people in Zaun, all chaos and pigeons and wide smiles as she gets her own PhD? No. She’s reflecting poorly on them, and between that and the, you know, issue with her being the daughter of a mob boss, Ekko hates her. However, that starts to change, both as a modeling career takes off and as he realizes that the Undercity wasn't Silco's only victim, and they become close friends - and maybe something more.
