downloaded this app solely to yap about jayvik because oh my GOD. also spoilers maybe
for starters. arcane as a show is just so beautiful to me because it starts with this idea that there is disparity and suffering and the concept of “oil and water” is something every single person suffers from. and it just continues like that all through season 1, just people, regular people, individuals whos lives we follow hurting eachother for the sake of their own artificial morals and ethics. we even see it in young viktor, his morals and individual ideas that mean so much to him(god that makes it hurt so much more to watch what happens in s2) and the whole season they lure you in with this false sense of believing that this is the show. this is the overarching theme of disparity, pain, suffering despite believing its for the “greater good.” but arcane is not about suffering. it doesnt for a second think this world is made to suffer in and yet it ensnares you with exactly that idea. because people love to be right, and we as the audience hinge on every word because the concept of people, individuals, being more than just black and white is something we all believe and yet adding even a dash of complexity into it makes it seem like this new idea that hasnt been done before. we mightve seen wealth disparity before, we mightve seen the concepts of everyone just being “people” regardless of who they are or what circumstances theyve lived in. but arcane doing it different, putting a little spin on it, giving us a glimpse into their war and battles and just how easy it is for these characters to die made us feel like this was MORE realistic, like it was different from all the others times, all the other shows and books and stories that have told us that everyone is flawed and yet everyone is good. honestly thats not even a bad thing, that alone wouldve made it an incredible show. but arcane doesnt stop there. every episode of s2 hit me like a truck because EVERYTHING was interconnected. every single action of every single person had meaning all leading up to one single point and still it all flies right under your nose because youre still thinking of “people” and “individuals.” you just keep following these characters in their own bubbles all with heaps of suffering and pain of their own and its so much that you dont even have time to consider how all these things might have an impact on one another…. until of course, the final scene. that godforsaken scene with jayce and viktor that genuinely made me bawl my eyes out. its just so perfect. its such an absolutely perfect cultivation of everything that has happened in the show. the way every single thing that has happened so far has been one single butterfly effect, one tip of a domino that has led to this war.
anyway forget all that im here to talk about jayvik uhm god that final scene with them made me want to die so bad. viktor goes back to save jayce time and time again knowing jayce is the catalyst to this butterfly effect to begin with. he goes back knowing that like all the other times, this one could be the same. this one could be another timeline where jayce fails. and still, he goes back to save him when letting him die would “fix” everything. on the other side of the coin viktor cannot be this prophet, someone who weilds the arcane, without jayce, because it is jayce who he hands the rune to, jayce who wants to touch the arcane, and jayce who stays by viktors side and calls him “partner” long enough for viktor to stand up on his own two feet and leave the man who man him. jayce cannot exist without viktor. viktor cannot exist without jayce. the string that ties them together connects absolutely everyone else and it drags them all down too and STILL… viktor goes back to save jayce. because even though he could choose not to save him, that timeline wouldnt matter, because viktor wants to save the timeline where jayce exists. and how poetic is it that these two anomalies end up going out in a flash of light holding hands good god i love this show so much
anyway i hope tumblr doesnt have a word limit theres my surface level analysis of arcane goodnigjt jayvik nation

dont pmo that was NOT her fault😭😭 “im so glad mabel takes accountability in the comics” accountability for what?? giving a seemingly insignificant object to a person she completely trusted because shes a kid and wanted the life she loved to last longer?? no 12 year old naive innocent kid needs to “take accountability” man idgaf she never did anything wrong
thinking about heimerdingers song playing while they cut from ekko with powder to jayce staring at the two corpses/husks/ whatever holding each other did this show have to gut me and leave my entrails spilling on the ground. was that necessary
