oh yeah also jayvik are extremely orpheus and eurydice coded i don't make the rules
#arcane#arcane s2#arcane season 2#jayce talis#jayce arcane#viktor arcane#jayvik#jayce x viktor#you mightve guessed that ive been listening to the hadestown soundtrack again recently#but anyways. jayce going back over and over and failing in timeline after timeline in the hopes that maybe this time. maybe just this once#he'll succeed and get his partner back#viktor putting the whole of his faith and trust in jayce that jayce will come back for him even though he fails again and again#but still viktor cannot imagine not believing in jayce one more time#the way the entire universe hangs in the balance of their bond oh man#i feel like jayvik is beyond categorization they're like the peak of classical romance which is not necessarily kisses and dating etc#but like the purest form of intimacy and affection. or something#i should write a fic abt this#anyways . idk . im a big fan of meljayvik so mel fits in here SOMEWHERE i just havent figured it out yet#if you made it to the bottom of this wall of tags here's a pie 🥧

"perhaps you should leave this trial for now" "your failure was expected", - Supergiant don't understand the tool they gave me with the Trials. thanks to them i can practice beating certain parts of the run without having to go through the previous locations. polyphemus still wrecks my shit even though i've felled him 3 times aready, so getting a chance to do the rift over and over without having to fight him beforehand is HUGE. i'd probably continue redoing this trial even after i would have defeated Eris just to make sure that when i get there for real, i am prepared
#eris is fairly easy EXCEPT for those auto/shotgun fan attacks#i can never tell when she's about to do them and so i get my shit wrecked#also i like how before you defeat polyphemus mel is all like "sir can i please just squeeze past ya'' but after you kill him once she goes#''out of my way or i kick your ass again'' lol#hades 2#hades 2 spoilers#my commentary

alicent and sansa with your bright red hair you are my enemy
stop trying to be ygritte you both could never
you have brown and auburn hair respectively with a side of some pretty misogynistic crazy fans who hate the hot dragon ladies
rhaenyra and dany you will both forever be famous
and stop stealing the winter roses rip my boy jon your symbolism is too cool too pretty so thieves are snatching it up bc for some reason little birds just aren’t good enough so a pretty flower is needed as well
i know this beef has long passed but almost every sansa fanart has a winter rose in it while i think i’ve only ever seen one fanart with jon holding some winter roses. the thieves have cleared my boy out and forced him into something so disturbing so gross so horrid so nasty and called it jonsa
they tried replacing satin with sansa it’s horrible
jonsatin is the real jonsa
it’s the truth
i’m a bi jon truther
i genuinely do not know what the point of this post is
#red hair is my enemy#ygritte and mel they’re stealing your fire#dany rhaenyra my loves your silver hair and purple eyes and hotness made them insecure so the red hair had to come out#it’s their pathetic defensive mechanism#bc they only care about the skin deep aspects of the characters they stan and project onto#jon snow you will always be famous as well#i love that my boy is represented by a rare pretty blue flower#it’s so him#bi jon rights#jonsatin is the real jonsa all my homies know the truth#anti jonsa#anti sansa stans#anti alicent stans#anti alicent hightower#no i don’t hate sansa i hate her fans bc that have rancid takes and warp characters until they’re unrecognizable#but i do hate alicent you are my enemy#i’m going to bed i guess i still had some negativity in me#this is a blog specifically for me to rant on if you are unhappy pls just block me no need to comment idc if u screenshot just tag correctly

Those Jayvik/Jayce fans who hate Mel must be blind because why are you hating a character so close to Jayce's heart?? If you don't want her you gotta forget abt Jayce too btw
#often bought together do not separate#'but mel manipul-' i'm going to shoot my brains out yes i know yes shut up please i am begging you to understand her character#they do!! love each other!! she ended up loving and caring abt him!! she's so full of love!!#and jayce still loves her nevertheless perhaps not in the same way but ig we'll never see more to their dynamic so#the point is if jayce saw the way you hate mel he'd be so disappointed in his fans c'mon now#mel medarda#jayce talis

some folks need to realize not every fandom criticism point brought up is directly about them and chill out
#void.txt#brought to you by someone complaining about it being pointed out how often non-white women in a canon relationship with a white man#get sidelined by fans for a white mlm ship to focus on/cared about way more because. y'know. misogyny and racism.#"but i'm just a lesbian who doesn't care to see 'straight' ships and i ship mel with someone else anyway its not because of that'#why are you upset then? the critique shouldn't upset you then and yet it does. hm.

if critiquing the actions of a flawed female character & acknowledging that she is flawed while still absolutely adoring her writing makes you misogynistic in the eyes of fandom i need to know what these people do about real fucking misogyny (Fucking Nothing)
#im not putting this in main tags but this is mostly about fan reception to people rightfully pointing out that mel did in fact manipulate +#jayce#like there are DEFINITELY PEOPLE BEING GROSS ABOUT IT#but being called everything under the sun by acknowledging her as a not great person is insane to me#like#none of the characters (minus ekko) (and id begin to argue vi as well) are wonderful people. they are all grey on the morality scale#every fucking character in this show is flawed i do want to talk on it without being treated like im hating the characters im speaking abou#please let me talk about the nuance without fearing people will take it the wrong way PLEAASEEE PLEASE PLEASEEEE#adding to this shes definitely a good person inherently but good people can make fucked up choices#her referring to jayce & vik as investments IS FUCKED UP GUYS. it IS FUCKED UP. NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY TO SPIN IT.#does that mean she did not care for jayce? no. does that make her a horrible person? also NO#i could go on and fucking on#mostly about how genuienly kindhearted of a person she is normally but i wish i was allowed to appreciate the nuance of her character witho#being afraid i will be treated poorly for pointing out in my own words that she is not a Perfect Person

WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME
Decided to experiment with the upcoming mega minions
Obviously I’m way better at drawing gangly toons than muscly weirdos but I think it’s saved by the Stuart drawing
I am literally the only person who cares about this what am I doing
#I’m honestly surprised the Despicable Me fandom isn’t as active right now. Where are you. What happened to you guys#Guys another movie is about to drop and Mel’s gonna be in it and he’s gonna have powers how are the minions fans not freaking out about thi#despicable me#minions#tim the minion#donnie the minion#kevin the minion#dave the minion#stuart the minion

MEL I AM BUYING YOU DINNER WHEN I VISIT LONDON. That tag was KEY.
I'm glad I could help! Other than immediately thinking 'OH MY GOD THIS IS MY CHANCE' my thought was trying to get you tickets as well 😭
As someone who runs on takeout most nights, whatever you buy me would be much appreciated <33
#(big fan of pizza and sea food like any other Brit wink wink nudge nudge)#Also I'm glad you managed to figure out a payment method!#overall thank Darya for making the post and Amber for tagging me#I really wish I could actually meet up with you guys but being perceived is terrifying ->#and knowing work I'll still be running between Sleep Token and a night shift 😭#mel's asks

Also I want to point out that there ARE some horrible women in fiction that I genuinely don't like. Like the girl from fucking Oreshura.
#GENUINELY insufferable. I will put up with a LOT but she crosses the goddamn line lmao#(granted. the show in question is just. not a good show. so that's probably a big part of it)#or perfect insider lady. (though that one is more related to her being like. SUPER 'fake deep'. they really thought they were doing#something with that one)#I also. because I hate myself. watched citrus one time. and mei (is that her name? I don't remember) is just the fucking worst. oh and the#other girl in the love triangle whose name I don't remember because I blocked most of that show out of my brain for the sake of my sanity#'mel why tf did you watch citrus' because I have this horrible trait where if people tell me something is bad. I go 'ooh but HOW bad'#and decide I have to see for myself. I regret it EVERY time I don't know why I keep doing this#am also not really a fan of lysa but I think that might be more related to the fact that I'm legally obligated to defend sansa with my life#(also. citrus is not bad because of the subject matter. it's bad because it's bad. just to make that clear. I don't care if people write#about uncomfortable subjects. /I/ write about uncomfortable subjects. also j/c is like The™ otp I'd have no 'moral high ground' here lmao)#oh and the scientist lady from bio.hackers.#but I don't really think they knew what they were trying to do when writing her

Edit: I fucking. Said "us" in the notes. I am not even Catholic anymore
I just grew up so immersed in the culture and theology (3rd generation Sicilian-American) that even after 6 years as a Gnostic I still cannot stop using the first person plural
Roman Catholicism is the Hotel California of religions
Being raised by areligious jews with 0 exposure to christianity outside pop culture is so fun. One time I asked my ex-catholic friend why a picture of jesus had a bristle crown and she looked at me like I was insane. One time I heard someone mention the "lance of longinus" and responded, word for word, "Like from Evangelion?" One time during a history lesson my professor described an important monk and scholar as "Dominican" and I spent the rest of class super confused and hung up on it because I was very sure that the Dominican Republic didn't meaningfully exist as an entity back then, maybe she meant he was a native Taino or something but that's a weird way to say that and I'm pretty sure this was pre- European contact? Really fucks people up when they realize I genuinely have no idea.
#ugh#i loathe mel gibson for 2 things#as an historian#one is the patriot#the other is the passion of the christ#it's#basically a gore flick by any other name?#and i need to make absolutely clear i am a fan of extreme cinema#but martyrs (the original french)#did more in terms of genuine exploration of faith#and the concept of martyrdom#of which you are taught christ was the og#than THAT#amd i was shocked that he had been raised catholic#because that kind of public extravagance#is supposed to be entirely internal#and purposeful#you can meditate on the martyrdom of st sebastian#arrows and all but a still image#because it's meant to focus your mind on a specific theme#i defy you to explain to me#how you could POSSIBLY meditate on 2 hours of shclock#and get anything out of it#it's just#standing on a streetcorner and praying out loud#that you may be heard by men#and you are very literally not supposed to that#saint festivals are by us for us#open air mass is for when you can't cram that many catholics into one building and still meet fire code#a mainstream blockbuster? no. i call bullshit

▶[Arcane preference] reacting to you wearing their clothes [Jayce, Viktor, Ekko, Vander, Silco, Jinx, Vi, Caitlyn, Mel, Sevika, ]
If you know me, hello little deers, I'm back! If you don’t know me, welcome! Just a heads-up that I don’t use "Y/N," but rather the impersonal "you," and even though I talk about clothes, no sizes or weight are involved. Enjoy the read!
Jayce:
- It’s not that rare when you’re together; he’s a real gentleman through and through. If it’s cold, he’ll give you his jacket, his scarf, anything to keep you warm
- But when you’re the one taking his clothes, it’s different
- When he sees you walking around the room in his shirt, just after waking up, something in his brain malfunctions
- It’s how it fits you, no matter how big or long it is, it seems like it was made just for you, to give you that look
- And to him, it feels like some kind of subliminal ad, as if the universe is making you so attractive in the simplicity of that gesture just to tell him he needs to hurry up and put a ring on your finger so he can enjoy that sight every day
- It’s hard for you to get anything done in the morning when he wakes up with those thoughts
- Those are the days when you stay in bed, cuddling under the covers, with him looking at you, hand on his cheek, getting more lost in you by the second
Viktor:
- For Viktor, the idea of a “little thief stealing his clothes” is an interesting one
- He’s never been a fan of tight-fitting clothes, plus, with his physique, it’s rare for anything to fit snugly anyway
- That’s why, except for his Academy uniform, the rest of his clothes are comfortable and at least two sizes too big for him, without mentioning Jayce's oversize ones in his closet
- What Viktor didn’t expect was that, once you started liking them, you’d just take them straight out of his drawer
- The first time he knocked on your door to ask if you’d seen his shirt —the very one you were wearing— he first stopped, confused, wondering how it had ended up on you
- And then, though he didn’t show it, he paused to notice with satisfaction how well it wrapped around your body
- Sometimes he pretends to forget his clothes at your place, just to see them on you, and to get them back with your scent on them
- For the nights when he feels lonelier
Ekko:
- Communism
- There’s not really a strong sense of what belongs to whom at the Tree, although some clothes (jackets in particular) eventually get so personalized that no one dares to take them anymore
- The first time you grabbed Ekko’s jacket, it was simply because you were freezing, it was really cold, and he was resting, so he didn’t need it
- But when he saw you wearing it, his pupils dilated so much you could notice it despite his very dark eyes
- Ever since then, it’s him who gives it to you and insists that you wear it, because he likes it: there’s something extremely intimate and deeply personal about walking around with you in his jacket
- It’s like marking you as his, but really, also reminding himself of it
- And Ekko may be proud, but one thing you quickly and painfully learn in the alleys is to say ‘I love you’ before it’s too late, and that small possessive gesture makes him feel fulfilled because it’s like he’s telling everyone that he couldn’t live without you
Vander:
- Vander’s clothes have this super-secret ability to change depending on who’s wearing them. For example, what are shirts on him turn into dresses on you
- When you put them on, even just for the sake of convenience, you find yourself laughing in front of every mirror you pass by
- And if he notices, he can’t help but hug you from behind, leaning down to rub his nose against your neck, smiling against your skin
- “You know,” he says every single time, “it looks better on you than it does on me,” and no matter how false it might be, in his eyes, it’s truer than almost anything else
- After seeing you a few times in his grown-up man's clothes, he decided to dig through an old box to find the clothes from when he was younger and mend them before leaving them folded on your side of the bed, like a little gift
Silco:
- Silco’s strangest habit was the connection he had with his clothes: they looked like Piltover garments, except for the boots and the shirt under the velvet vest, yet they were torn, poorly mended, and worn out in several places
- Despite being the richest man in the undercity, he never changed them
- The only newer piece in his wardrobe that he used to wear was his coat, which was in perfect condition, scented with cologne, and lined with soft velvet that followed the direction of your fingers when you touched it
- Sure, there were ceremonial outfits, pajamas, and something comfortable yet always elegant, but he had worn them so little that they almost didn’t seem like his
- That’s why one day you simply decided you were bored, and while he was in a meeting, you could take the opportunity to try on the ones that fit you
- But that little fashion show from his wardrobe to the mirror probably took longer than expected, and definitely you were too focused, because you didn’t notice the tall figure watching you, leaning against the doorframe
- “Don’t take that off, I’ve got an idea or two,” his voice broke the silence, making you jump
Jinx:
- Her clothes are more like a flea market than a wardrobe: there are men’s clothes, women’s clothes, from Piltover and Zaun, intact, held together by metal staples, clean, splattered with paint, torn from explosions, some so small you wonder who they could even fit, and some so large that you and at least four of her father’s henchmen could comfortably fit in them with room to spare
- She’s the one who tells you to grab something from the pile the first time you ask to help her with her calculations and experiments, and in the end, you choose something comfortable rather than something intact or clean
- It took her a good half hour to notice, and then another hour to stop talking about it
- It was something she hadn’t done since she had a family, sharing clothes with someone else, and suddenly she realized just how much she missed it
- Every now and then, she’d give you oversized shirts on purpose, just to disappear under the fabric and snuggle up to you, where she felt sheltered enough to feel less vulnerable
Vi:
- Vi’s mentality was interesting because, by accident, if she noticed you were eyeing someone’s clothes with interest, somehow the next day those clothes would end up on your bed
- Vi would do anything for you; if it were up to her, you’d be dressed in pearls and gold, but neither the place nor her situation allowed it
- That’s why she never offered you her clothes: the older ones were tattered, barely definable as rags, which she stubbornly patched up every month
- The new ones were stolen, spoils from street fights, but they always came in looking battered and worn, or worse, stained with blood or strange substances, so they weren’t good for you
- When she saw you wearing a sweater from her wardrobe, stained and burned in spots, the first thing she felt was guilt
- She hated not being able to treat you the way she wanted to
- But from that day on, she made sure to at least wash her clothes before putting them away, and slowly she learned to love the clothes you stole a little more than the others
- That sweater, for example, she would defend it with her life
Caitlyn:
- Whenever you stayed over at her place, she always made sure to provide everything for you: slippers, socks, pajamas, anything you might need
- And it was always the highest quality you had ever seen
- So seeing you in her clothes wasn’t new, although she sometimes liked to have you try on things she didn’t wear anymore, partly because she couldn’t due to her important name, and partly because she spent half her time in uniform
- Those little fashion shows almost always ended with her on top of you, while you are very busy figuring out how to stay quiet so none of the servants, or worse, her parents, would catch you
- It didn’t matter if the clothes didn’t suit you, being able to see you in so many different lights made her fall even more in love with everything about you
- The final blow? One day she decided to look through the enforcers’ uniforms to find one that would fit you, and for the first time, she saw you in clothes that matched hers
- There was something about it that made her hope that uniform would change the chemistry of your brain too and make you join the force, just so she could spend more time with you, just so she could see you like that more often
Mel:
- For Mel, it wasn’t an event: she was used to everything, mastering her emotions, and seeing you wearing something of hers had only left her confused for a second, from which she quickly recovered, smiling at you
- “It looks really good on you, you know?” she had asked
- It didn’t bother her. Objectively, you seemed stupid borrowing those elegant clothes tailored exactly to her body
- It almost felt like heresy to wear the clothes of a goddess-like figure. But the goddess had sensed something, and she began buying and commissioning outfits for both you and her, matching, so you wouldn’t feel like you were missing something
- But there was one moment, a specific one, where seeing you in one of her dresses had left her speechless
- When you told her that the sweater was so beautiful it was almost a shame knowing she couldn’t wear it on the day you’d marry her
- And Mel Medarda came from a land of war, where it was hard to get attached to people, let alone objects
- Yet from that day, that piece of clothing became a constant for her, even if it meant layering or pulling it down to keep her shoulders bare
- Because it no longer just warmed her skin; it began to warm something deeper, something she hadn’t even realized she had
Sevika:
- Her clothes reflected her line of work: dirty, unpleasant, dangerous
- But despite that, she would drape them over you herself, no matter how worn they were: if she thought you might be cold, without a word, you’d find a sweater or hoodie on your shoulders
- And even though she’d glance at you from the corner of her eye, she wouldn’t stop watching you for a single moment when you wore something of hers
- It was a matter of homeland—there was no ownership in Zaun, not even last names, as even the family you belonged to was irrelevant compared to what you could do
- And the gangs, thugs, and troublemakers wouldn’t hesitate to steal what was yours
- But you were hers, and you couldn’t be stolen. And that shirt was hers, but she didn’t feel mutilated, like she normally would, when you wore it
- In fact, she loved it, opening her arms to invite you to snuggle up, holding you carefully so the prosthetic wouldn’t bother you, adjusting the clothing on you ten, a hundred times, almost unconsciously
- And when you wore her clothes, it felt like for a little while, you could wear her skin too, to understand her better, and she suddenly seemed more vulnerable
