I have a problem with the idea of a Jinx redemption arc. It's not that I have any issue with the fact that Jinx will be viewed as a hero to the people of Zaun. It's pretty obvious Jinx would be admired, she did a thing the people of Zaun wanted en masse for a long time. The thing about Jinx being the savior of Zaun is that it isn't really a redemption arc, because that's still just Jinx being militantly opposed to Piltover, a thing she always has been.

My problem is that the insistence that Jinx NEEDS to have a redemption arc takes away from the larger complexity of Arcane's worldbuilding. What does Jinx have to apologize for in order to be redeemed? Why is there so much emphasis on Jinx's character specifically to rectify her wrongs? And the way the fandom often defines Jinx's wrongdoings centers around a vague discomfort in her acts of violence and general instability.

What does it look like for Jinx to be "good", when the actions of many well-intentioned characters that the audience has an easier time being morally-aligned with either generates very little benefit or actual harm? No one in the cast sans Jinx and Silco have taken the material steps (as controversial as they may be) to deal with the problem that is Piltover, and Piltover has always been THE problem for Zaun.

The concept of a redemption arc for Jinx is so backwards because it asks Jinx as an individual to do "better" when it should be demanded of Piltover instead. How do you live to a standard that makes you morally good when the environment around you necessitates violence as it's own form of capital?

Sidenote: This all leads to the one real worry I have about Jinx and Ekko's inevitable partnership. Ekko is the character the showrunners treat as a guiding light in Zaun, which unfortunately makes Ekko an agent of the showrunners' biases. Case in point, Ekko's friendship with Heimerdinger, the architect of Zaun's despair.

If Jinx and Ekko team up, there's a chance she'd up end up working with Heimerdinger too. And it's like, "C'mon, really????"

the silliest things being tagged spoilers for minor details is hilarious. Anyway this is not the first time ive seen time loop pregnancy be discussed in regards to siffrin and loop. This is not judgmental I'm enjoying it

isat spoilers under the cut im not tagging this

obviously all injury done to siffrin disappears as the time loop restarts. however apparently he still gets physically strained as characters are able to tell that he looks tired or is generally in a poor state and they end up sick and exhausted due to overuse of craft across the loops. so if siffrin got impregnated during a loop which is then restarted, where does that fall under

Kevin & Charlie watching Lucifer wreck shop at a video game (bonus points if it’s a video game you’re not supposed to be able to “win” like Minecraft or Stardew)

Even Lucifer's laptop (old, runs while making a funny whirring noise, probably stolen from Sam) can run Minecraft, provided the settings are low and his grace keeps it from overheating, so Charlie sets him up and lets him loose, taking advantage of his distraction to use him as a pillow as she curls up on the end of the couch and props her own computer against her stomach to challenge herself with Kaizo levels.

She loses track of time until Kevin passes by, peeks over their shoulders to snort at Charlie killing Mario (Only death 247 on this ROM!) and then say, "Holy shit," as he looks at Lucifer's screen. Charlie, curiosity piqued, tilts her head just as Lucifer says, "Mammoth Cave," as though it's completely normal to create a 1-to-1 recreation of the largest cave system in America for Minecraft Steve to crawl through.

I dunno if someone has brought this up yet...

...but what if the reason Adam is a dick is because he hasn't gotten properly laid since Eve died?

At least, he can't logistically do so without ending up in "ship" territory?

It would also explain Adam's literacy in modern porn.

What kind of god-level internet service provider is he getting behind the pearly gates, ffs-
