Silco's Pet Scientist

(Please note that this was written without having actually watched Arcane and before season 2 started.)

Time traveling Silco does a lot of things to change the state of the world. He didn't come back far enough to save Vander and his boys, (and he felt somewhat guilty about the fact that he wasn't too upset about that seeing as if he had saved them he wouldn't have Jinx and he's not sure he would have been able to make the choice between his daughter and her old family) but he can still do a lot of things to help Jinx and to make a better world for her.

One of the things he wants to get for her is someone who is both a good influence, trustworthy not to hurt her, and can keep up with her mind. He remembers Viktor and realizes that he has access to the perfect thing to blackmail the man into helping him raise his daughter. He has been experimenting with Shimmer to make it safer and better for medical use in case Jinx ever nearly dies again, and he realizes he can use that to help heal Viktor's limp. In order to keep it working he will have to take small diluted doses regularly, meaning he will have to do what Silco wants if he wants his medication.

Of course first he has to actually make the deal with the man. When he proposes the deal he mentions nothing of Jinx, meaning Viktor believes he will have to do some crazy, possibly immoral, experiments for the man if he agrees. In the end the lure of a cure makes him decide to agree to do what Silco wants.

decide to agree to do what Silco wants. So Silco brings him back to his lair, undresses him, removes his brace, and puts the prepared back and leg brace with Shimmer and future technology embedded in it on him. The leg brace is mostly there just in case and will be removed later, but the back brace will have to be permanent. It's got flat circular vials of modified shimmer all down the spine, and at the very top is a part that goes around the base of his neck. A needle inserts itself from the collar in between two of his vertebrae, and slowly and steadily pumps the modified shimmer into him. It hurts going in, but once the shimmer has settled in the properties that allow it to heal also help numb the pain of the injection site. 

Viktor passes out from the pain of the initial insertion, and Silco brings him somewhere more comfortable so that he can lie in a bed until he wakes up. By the time he is conscious again, the shimmer has fully integrated into his body and when he stands he finds himself able to stand straight and firm without aid. He is delighted by this, but also uncertain of what Silco might make him do. This fear is made worse when Silco threatens him about keeping his mouth shut and acting appropriately about what he is about to see. Then Silco brings him to a small blue-haired girl and introduces them with the softest voice he's ever heard from the man. He realizes that this is his daughter and that he will absolutely be dead if he says anything to anyone or does anything to harm the child. At first, he is hesitant around Jinx, but they quickly bond with their love of inventing and engineering. He helps Jinx improve her bombs, but he also helps her make other things less inclined toward destruction.

After some time Silco gets an idea based on how things are going and his future knowledge. He convinces Viktor to act as his pet, his guard dog, in front of his people. Only those who know about Jinx know that Viktor isn't just Silco's favorite pet. Viktor is brought on board by the idea of being able to have public sway with Silco without tarnishing Silco's reputation. He also gets to act as a defender for Jinx as she gets older and starts venturing further from the nest. It also garners him some protection, as anyone who messes with him is messing with Silco. He has to debase himself and put up with Silco acting possessive over him, but he doesn't mind all that much with how many benefits he gets from the situation.

He's never both hated and loved his position more when Jayce and some other topsiders get brought to Silco, obviously to be tortured for information. Viktor is immediately begging Silco not to kill Jayce, to Jayce's utter horror, which disrupts things from the norm enough for Silco to not kill them, imprisoning them instead.

After a few hours Viktor has worked himself into a panic and goes to break the prisoners out himself instead of waiting for Silco to come up with a plan. This of course backfires when one of the guards catches him. The people with Jayce are killed, and Viktor is slammed into a wall so hard his brace cracks. His screaming alerts Silco, who comes to see what is going on. He comments on how Jayce was a bigger deal to his pet then he first thought and how he could use that before having Jayce moved to a more secure cell and Viktor dragged off to the lab for punishment.

Silco talks with Viktor, admonishing him for his impatience and getting caught. After removing the broken brace it was decided that it would take some time to fix, and Silco gave Viktor a choice. He could either set him up with an IV to supplement his brace until it was fixed, or he could be put in the same cell as Jayce, allowing him to spend time with him but leaving him weak and in pain until the brace was done. After confirming that it wouldn’t kill him Viktor chose Jayce. Silco is pleased as Jayce having to watch Viktor start to wither away with give them man some perspective as to why Viktor is working for him.
