So I watched arcane…

viktor arcane has to be one of the characters ever.
he's gay. he's terminally ill. he's suicidal. he's from league of legends. he's in a toxic relationship with an orb. he also might be the orb(???). he bullshitted his way into the academy by pretending he went there. he rizzed up a guy so he wouldn't kill himself. he then tried to impress said guy by breaking into his boss's lab. then when he got caught he tried to play it off by saying he thought this big intimidating door was his bedroom door and he was just trying to sneak a guy in there. he nearly died because hetero sex was happening like a mile away. kinda. he took illegal drugs. he's also the apprentice of the guy who's making the illegal drugs and never mentions it. he's inspired off of the tale of frankenstein's monster. he got shot by a missle and fucking died. when he came back to life he immediately broke up his messy gay situationship and became jesus fucking christ.
truly one of the characters of all time

Another thing that is so consistently good about Arcane is the total lack of male gaze in the entire show. The creators obviously had to use the character design for some of the characters that included skimpier outfits (Jinx's outfit, and the female Enforcer uniforms) but at no point did I feel like either Jinx or Caitlyn were sexed up. Jinx's outfit seemed to fit her character and wasn't used to sexualize her at all, and Caitlyn wore more practical clothing any time she was left to her own devices/not in the enforcer uniform, giving the impression that the enforcer uniform was more of a nod to in-world sexism, but not exploited as a vehicle to sexualize her. More than that, I thought the female characters were so beautifully nuanced in a way I can't really identify in any other big show or movie right now. Vi was allowed to be angry and violent and rough around the edges without becoming some anti-butch, anti-masculine-woman caricature. Grayson carried herself with a beautiful masculine dignity - reminiscent of the nobility of medieval knights, trying to do the right thing, pledging her weapon to defending her people. Medarda was drop-dead gorgeous but her political savvy was her most highlighted feature and her male love interest did not at all overshadow that aspect of her character. Sevika was allowed to be a tough, badass villain, and they didn't make her seductive or sexual, which are features that are so often highlighted in villainous women. I could go on but man, I feel like they're doing the most when it comes to doing their female characters justice. The more I think about this show, the more I find to love.
I did like timebomb with Ekko x Powder. I don't like it with Jinx, but even with the Symbols and everything I didn't feel the ship was forced into Jinx and Ekko and I did appreciate that. To me it felt more like the two were reworking themselves to fit their "new us" together, not as a couple, but as a team to build up something new. They spent so much fighting and resenting the other while also missing the ghost of their childhood friend (and possible crush), I don't think they could ever work that out.
In the alternate universe what Ekko mostly gained was closure, he was able to say goodbye to Benzo and Powder. To me it meant a lot when Ekko corrected himself after almost deadnaming Jinx, I don't think it was because the last time she saw her she was Powder, but because Ekko was like Vi in season 1. They didn't want Jinx, it was Powder or nothing, because Jinx is Silco's daughter, the daughter of the man who killed Benzo and Vander deciding to remain loyal to such man.
It left me wonder: when Ekko said he gave her chances, did he ever gave Jinx one? Or did he only ever give them to Powder? The way he says "she is gone" to Vi implies that it was Powder the one who he extended his hand with.
Then there is Jinx, who he just found out trying to kill herself (in all shown it's clear that, even through everything, he doesn't want her to die). We don't know why Ekko was there, if he went there for Jinx, if he just apammed there after the arcane multi-verse travel or if he was there for something else, but he was there and decided to stop her. And the words that get through Jinx are this:
"It's never too late to build something new. Someone worth building it for."
That was something important for Jinx AND Powder in both seasons. First, her gadgets for the team, then the Hextech weapon for Silco, the Sevika's arm, then her new finger, then Vander's death, then her relationship with Vi, then this: Isha's sacrifice. To make it worth something, which is why the globe had the symbol of the bunny (Powder AND Isha's symbol) instead of her iconic symbol of the monkey. From Sevika's arm, while building is important, there is a shift from "building" to "fixing".
"It was something I could fix."
That is Jinx's whole plot during season 2, it's what gave her motivation in the first place after Silco's death.
We don't know how much Ekko knew, but if he saw that Jinx had taken his place, becoming a symbol of the one that take cares for the Undercity, then he had to give her a chance. With the closure he needed, he was ready to accept Jinx, even if she is not Powder and he would always grieve her and what it could have been if things have been different.
Forgiveness is not a theme in arcane, but something deeper. The characters never really forgive each other but learn to live with what happened and move forward accepting that the other person is there. Accepting that, they too, haven't done things right, so they really can't keep pushing against that person and pretend that they are justified in whatever are the consecuences of their actions.
Ekko and Jinx just started building, because people they cared about needed them to, and they decided to give it a chance because it was sonething they could fix. Whatever that something was their friendship, their battle efforts, the sacrifices made, ir didn't really matter. They just gave each other a chance, that was why the monkeys in Ekko's timeloop were important, not because they represented a "good version of Jinx", they represent Jinx, and Ekko was willing to add them, just like he was willing to add her now. To give her something to work with.
Now I'm aware I probably just got it the way I wanted it because content was cut short, I would have lost it with actual Ekko x Jinx content, but this ambiguous way it works and I'm grateful that I got it.
I also believ this is a ship you dislike more the fanon content than the actual content, as Timebomb shippers more often than not ignore that Powder and Jinx are in fact NOT the same person to try and force the Ekko x Jinx. Same individual yes, but not the same person. It's one of those ships you dislike more because of the fans disregard of canon and important content than the little we were given or oven force fed by the show. (Becaus c'mon, the whole tea party scene in season one was NOT so people could say "tHeY aRE tHe sAMe pERsoN")
How it feels to not like timebomb after s2
Another reason for Vi to pull out might be the phrase "Everything might have been different" as she doesn't know how to approach Jinx's "what if", because it not only implies that Vander wouldn't have "died". It also implies that Jinx, like seemingly happened in the other universe, she could have had both Vander and Silco.
Jinx being the sister that becomes the symbol is important because she is both Vander's and Silco's daughter, she is the legacy shaped by Vander's heart and Silco's ambition, even if she lacks both of them for several parts in the series. But only Vander is Vi's father, and Silco is just the main reason her life became miserable, even without being "responsible for making/forcing Jinx from Powder", so she can't step in.
Even in the other universe she doesn't get Silco as a father, or as a positive part of her life. That idea is so "other" to her that even in another Universe Vi doesn't get to experience that "what if", so she pulls away.
Damn, this scene right here where Vi reaches out to her to comfort Jinx just KILLS me every time.
It's a very small scene, but it carries so much weight because it shows how, despite all that's happened, Vi's love for her sister is still very much present, and the bitterness and resentment she felt toward her all those years ago are withering away.
I also love that when she retracts her hand, she doesn't do it forcefully or speedily, which would indicate hostility or resentment. She does it gently as if she's saying to herself, "Maybe I'll just give her some space for now."
As great as the big emotional scenes are (e.g., Vander reuniting with her daughters), you CANNOT undervalue the little moments that made them all the more impactful.
He wanted that cookie so bad and he got it
Who knew just a little bit of dick would fix him????
Oh my god this is amazing what an amazing read you’ve blessed my eyes
so i wrote a quick post-canon jayvik fic about acts of intimacy in ending and the pain of dying alongside the love of your life . i know this is a one piece-centric account but i swear i can write good ok bye
We got the hug but at what cost );
ARCANE S2 SPOILERS
WE FINALLY GOT THE HUG
How do I get one of those ponies 🤔
anyway so the blanket jayce wraps around viktor (the one he was using to sleep in the lab) is kept all the way until he ascends in that fucking pony. same way jayce was the red on his tie in s1 jayce is the red in viktor's cape forever
Okay, Arcane rant real quick. Would love to get some of everyone’s thoughts on this! Season 2 spoilers.
So when Future! Viktor is explaining that he had tried to stop the Glorious Evolution before, we saw blips of him giving Jayce different runes when he initially gave Child! Jayce the stone. When Ekko and Heimer are trying to recreate the singularity, Ekko says that the time travel component worked because he was tinkering with “Jayce’s acceleration rune” and circled the rune that was carved into that stone.
Does this mean there are other timelines where Ekko used other powers, based on different runes that Future! Viktor tried to give Jayce? Or did the singularity only work because it was specifically the acceleration rune? Just wanting to bounce some ideas around with people.
I don't have a name for him yet, but he's an 8 year old boy who lives in zaun, an inspiring artist who mainly does graffiti or large designs in chalk on street grounds. He's learning how to do portraits after seeing the rise in Jinx portraits all around after she became the figure of freedom
And small details that always make me smile, he 'dyed' his hair with chalk, and has belts around his shoes because he never learned how to tie shoes, oversized old overalls that he fixed up after finding them somewhere, jinx socks, and scars on his knees from learning how to jump rooftops. Also his hair is based on my hair irl
WHEN HE SAID THE ONLY THING KEEPING THEM TOGETHER WAS AFFECTION. JAYCE DROPPING EVERYTHING TO BE WITH VIKTOR AGAIN WHWN HE FIRST CAME BACK FROM THE ‘DEAD’. ARCANE WRITERS WHEN WE CATCH YOU
not even lifting a finger to stop jayce. the blanket still wrapped around him. the crater in his chest. THE FUCKING GEAR FROM THE ORIGINAL HEXTECH PROJECT ROLLING OUT OF HIS HAND AS HE DIES. ARCANE WRITERS WHEN I CATCH YOU
And what if Jinx escaped? Left behind a few things to move forward? What if she finally rode on "one of those things" and got out of Zaun and Piltover?
What if on her travels—to heal, to find a new purpose, become a girl who isn't damned, to be someone who isn't reminded of her past in everywhere and everyone she looks—she ends up in Demacia?
What if the story continues after magic has been reintroduced into Runeterra and we see it through the perspective of the kingdom so against its very existence? Introduced to the girl who resents the deal she's been dealt in life and fears—if not ashamed—of who she is: part magic.
What if these two opposing characters, for whatever reason or another, meet?
Lux, ever the optimist. Jinx, the guilty pessimist.
Lux, the girl who hides who she is in fear of being rejected and captured. Jinx, the girl who's been rejected and unwanted far too many times to count.
Lux, with a dream of adventure yet stationed in one place because of duty. Jinx, almost chronically bound to do what she wants or deems the better choice, despite what anyone wants, tells, or expects of her.
What if Jinx inspires a new way of seeing the world for Lux—one where she's not limited by others and can become a truer version of herself? What if Lux inspires a new way of seeing the world for Jinx—one where she can learn to love who she is, rather than view herself as a curse?
WHAT IF?
hello? hello? can anyone hear m
Arcane s2 spoilers!
stupid meme i couldn't get out of my head
So, last post, I said I don't think Jinx is alive, but after Rewatching season two and analyzing it to Oblivion, I believe she is not dead. Arcane is a very Detail oriented show. They care about the small things, so the fact that they put so much Emphasis on the Vents near the aria were jinx "died" says something. As well as the fact that jinx is shown time and time again to be fast due to shimmer. I think the evidence speaks for itself.
Jinx is alive and will probably be in one of the next league of legends shows.
Well, I watched season 2 part 3 . . . It was something spoilers bellow
All and all, after watching all of season 2, I'm happy with it, but I do still feel it's rushed. 3 seasons would have been better for many reasons. And although I'm happy with the ending I want more.
Anyway caitvi sesbian lex!!!!! Very cool, really well done, I'm happy with it, and hey, we finally got full back tattoos shown. Vi is some kind of top, but I'm still sticking with the idea of both them Being switch tbh.
Jinx dying was expected based on the fact that everyone who adopted a child died. Vander, Silco, and now Jinx/Powder. People say that maybe she survived, saving herself in the vents of the building, but I don't think so. She is dead, and although I like her (don't get me wrong, I'm grieving a fictional character), I still think this was for the better of the story.
I don't really gotta say this, but that ending destroyed me. It was good for the time they got, but damn.
I think that after watching all of Arcane, I can proudly say it's my favorite TV show.
Evidence that Arcane cares about details (btw this is really cool to notice nice job)
In the sneak peek of Act 3, there's a scene where Ambessa aims a blade directly at Caitlyn's eye.
Looking at other scenes, you can tell that Caitlyn's dominant eye (the one she aims with) is her right eye.
In the previously mentioned scene, Caitlyn likely realizes she's about to lose an eye, so she uses force to shift the blade toward her weaker eye, the less dominant one, ensuring she can continue shooting as effectively as possible if she survives.
her right eye is her dominant eye
she moved the blade towards her left eye
i feel so sorry about my girl I hope nothing bad happens to her this act😔
When I saw this Sean I yelled
So loud, my neighbors told me to shut up
I want to clarify the time I yelled this . . . It was 2 am
The pain is real. This was the exact thing that happened to me. I knew, but I couldn't stop the attachment.
The moment that Isha was on screen, I knew that kid was going to die. Did this knowledge stop me from getting attached? absolutely not, in fact, I would say it made it worse.
fr, it was so inspiring and heartwarming how they decided to leave the characters happy and content at the end of the show instead of dooming them
What a great ending for Arcane :D
🏳️🌈!!!
🏳️🌈?
men dni is so real
and also I really feel like zaun was discarded at the end cause basically the whole s1 and half of s2 was focused on this war between piltover and zaun and at the end we didn't even get a satisfying ending, yeah sevika became a councillor (as she should, love that for her) but then what? it was too rushed
I wish we had at least one episode more so they could delve into more things that were plot points so we could have a more satisfying ending
no bc sevika being on the council isn't a big shock to me. I mean it is. but sevika has made it very clear that she wants the best for zaun, for the undercity, and being on the council now could guarantee it.
AGELESS BLOGS, MINORS AND MEN DNI
truly unforgettable experience, as a hopeless lesbian thank you arcane🫶
I don't think some of ya'll realize how monumental the caitvi sex scene is. Normalization of queer love that isn't for the male gaze is so fucking sick
