"ekko had to give up paradise" as if staying in the alternate timeline was ever an option in ekko's mind. the truth is, from the moment he got there he was desperately looking for a way home. seeing zaun that way, being with powder and benzo and his friends and family, brought him joy, but more than that, it gave him hope. hope for his home, for his power. he never for a second considered staying in that perfect reality. even in his moments with alt powder, he doesn't say he wishes he could stay. he only wishes to stop time and remain in that moment of happiness. but for ekko, it could never really be his paradise if it wasnt his home. and that's why it had to be him.

I still don't necessarily think Jinx and Ekko straight up had sex offscreen, but I saw someone make an excellent counterpoint to the objection that Jinx wasn't in the right mindset for that/Ekko wouldn't have "taken advantage" of her.
The counterpoint being: All of Arcane's love scenes are kinda fucked up anyway.
Mel and Jayce's scene is intercut with Viktor dying and being the subject of nonconsensual blood magic. Vi and Caitlyn getting cozy on Caitlyn's bed is interrupted by a smash-cut to Jinx being revived in a torturous medical crime. Everything about the Caitlyn/Maddie relationship is upsetting and deliberately played to be upsetting. And Vi and Caitlyn finally have sex in Jinx's jail cell while Jinx is on her way to kill herself (I don't actually have much of a problem with this like a lot of people do, but c'mon, they were definitely leaning into the kink there).
So Ekko and Jinx getting it on while she's still kind of maybe suicidal is honestly pretty tame by comparison.
You'll always be in my heart, little one.
happy valentine’s day from these two lovestruck fools 🤍
Happy Chinese New Year 🐍✨
Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.
If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.
Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.
Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.
I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.
it took me two whole weeks to create this illustration... do you think it was worth it? 😂 a small tribute to the finale of the second act of arcane and one of my favorite scenes from the series. even now, i feel like crying every time i rewatch that final scene.. poor isha 🥺

"when the sirens sound you'll hide under the floor/but i'm not gonna go down in my hometown with a tornado/i'm gonna chase it, i know, i know, i know/ i gotta go now, i know, i know, i know"
"when the sirens sound you'll hide under the floor" - shot of jinx trying to sit back up after getting knocked back by vander, isha deciding what to do
"but i'm not gonna go down in my hometown with a tornado" - isha grabbing the blue hex crystal, adjusting her helmet
"i'm gonna chase it, i know, i know, i know" isha starting to run, especially with that one part of her crying with a smile bc it kills me
"i gotta go now, i know i know, i know" isha sending the 'pew' back and jinx yelling
short bit of the violin instrumental after - the memory scenes, then suddenly the explosion. cut to black
ughhhhghegddhhdh
I wake up to the sounds of the silence that allows
For my mind to run around with my ear up to the ground
I'm searching to behold the stories that are told
When my back was to the world that was smiling when I turned
Tell you you're the greatest
But once you turn, they hate us
Oh, the misery
Everybody wants to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants to be my enemy
(Look out for yourself)
My enemy
(Look out for yourself)
But I'm ready
"Silco was the worst leader of Zaun, he only hurt his own people and was useless/didn't care about zaun"
Zaun under Vander: Submissive to Piltover, trampled and harrassed by enforcers, stuck in oppression and making zero progress even as his own children had to steal to survive.
Firelights: Fairly small group (some of whom are literal children) that are nonviolent, can't even stop Silco much less Piltover, and have no plans beyond stopping shimmer.
Zaun under Chembarons: Utter chaos, turf wars, Zaunites fighting each other while getting trampled and gassed by Piltover.
Zaun under Sevika: Needs a 17 year old girl to bring unity since their leader can't, sides with and makes sacrifices for Piltover only to be met with a single council seat in a majority-rule council made up entirely of topsiders and no independence in return.
Zaun under Silco: Innovations in medicine, fuel, and body augmentation; has thriving industries, cleaner air and water, and an army of chemsoldiers. Enforcers are driven out and Zaun is now strong enough to destroy Piltover before the innovations of hextech. Even with hextech Zaun is powerful enough to devastate Piltover to the point that war isn't even worth the damage. Silco's Zaun was even offered independence, which it would have gained if Silco was willing to give up his daughter.
Unlike Silco, the chembarons did not care about Zaun, and they did nothing beneficial for it. Sevika, the Firelights, and Vander all tried more peaceful means only for Piltover to spit in their faces.
As inhumane as Silco's methods were, they were easily the most effective. Silco was right that to gain independence violence was necessary, that they had to become what Topside feared.
i find it kinda laughable when it gets pointed out that jinx being included in silco's fight for zaun, in missions and engineering weapons(assuming he encouraged her from the beginning), and such have made her think that level of violence is just the way of life(and that it is some sad revelation about her specifically) because..... well, yeah it is.
do y'all think children get to be children in zaun????? from the very beginning we see teenagers ganging up on children, enforcers come and go as they please, vi and powder were there when the big bridge tragedy happened!!! violence IS part of everyone's childhood and 'normalcy' in zaun, there is absolutely no way powder or isha could've escaped from it. i have to wonder what show are y'all watching.
if we define “good dad” by genuinely wanting what’s best for your kid, loving and caring for them unconditionally, being patient with them, making them feel valued, giving them the space to express themselves, encouraging their talents, and genuinely trying your best and doing what you think is best for them, then Silco was a good dad.
But if we define “good dad” by actually being able to properly parent and discipline your child, ensuring they aren’t a danger to themselves and others, teaching them healthy life lessons so that they can grow, not projecting your own unresolved trauma onto your child in a codependent way, and being a good role model, then Silco was NOT a good dad.
