#HE DOES NOT DESERVE IT (yet)

sometimes i’m sooooo blown away by the fact that kevin is so smart……. like yes he is the fox with the highest grades despite being also the fox with the tightest training schedule and yes he canonically gets called an obsessive genius and yes the extra content explicitly says he is both very smart and very willing to teach people. but really i am thinking about kevin playing reporters like fiddles, jean calling kevin too good of a liar to ever let anything slip, kevin going up to andrew post-game and wordlessly helping cover up the fact andrew is off his medicine by pretending andrew’s racquet had broken (and then proceeding to discreetly crush it in his hand when the foxes gather around andrew), kevin living a lifetime of walking on the edge of riko’s knife, kevin hiding french, hiding thea, kevin spotting potential from a mile away, kevin who even riko thought was brilliant and sharp-tongued. yeah……..!

Arcane Season 2 Act III Theory: Viktor was the one who manipulated Jayce into killing him (not the promise they made)

Call me insane on this one but what if the future version of Viktor was the one who influenced Jayce to kill Viktor’s past self when Jayce was (most likely) having visions of the future stuck inside of the anomaly.

Hear me out. Viktor’s arc from Act I to Act II was realizing that emotions are the sole cause of all human suffering and pleasure—therefore, machinery, which removes all emotions, is the highest form of being. Therefore, machine herald.

But the only way for the future viktor to become the machine herald was for there to be an inciting event in his past; something that drove current Viktor to that realization—something that catapulted him towards his, yes, final glorious evolution.

What better way to force that realization than to have his closest friend destroy his commune, his body, and past self’s belief that he can mitigate human suffering through his pure sterilized love?

My loose theory is that machine herald Viktor met Jayce in a distant future (my one piece of evidence for this is the fact that Jayce is wearing a leg brace and a one shoulder pauldron VERY similar to League of Legend’s Viktor design) and either manipulated him or terrorized him to the point that Jayce killed Viktor’s past self—therefore ensuring that Viktor would be reconstructed by singe, and eventually become the machine herald.

It’s a classic self-fulfilling prohecy—in the Greek legend of Oedipus, a king is told a prophecy in which his son kills him. The king then abandons his son in hopes of avoiding his fate, only to have said son kill him in the following years as an adult. In arcane’s case, Jayce is the king and Viktor is both the prophet and the son.

having one of those moments in which I was giggling and kicking my feet reading cute little moments with Miguel and admiring awesome fanart in which he's happy, but then I remember that canonically ATSV Miguel is not doing okay, and is suppressing all his emotions regarding Gabby's death and the collapse of her universe (and others before hers), and who knows what else if he's already been through certain events from the comics, but he's ignoring it all and trying to keep the multiverse from falling apart...

now I'm sad

Queer As Folk – 1.02: Queer, There and Everywhere

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

What’s up with the ties between Sally & Eddie?

There are quite a few - to the point where I’m starting to suspect that they may be foils, or at least inherently tied together in the story.

First let's bring things back to the clocks. The “day” side has an obvious resemblance to Sally, like how the “night” side resembles Eddie. There’s not really much I can say here since we don’t know much more yet, and who knows if this has changed behind the scenes. But just think about that, the rarity of the color purple, night vs day, and the “monster”. Keep it in your head, I think it may be important. 

Also the fact that Eddie is the only one with a watch, but Sally’s face has an incredibly similar face on her door.

Obviously Sally has some sort of beef with Eddie, despite him being nothing but friendly and (to our knowledge) being undeserving of it. One thought I entertained was “maybe Sally is dismissive of him because he’s a worker,” but that holds zero water when you consider how perfectly friendly Sally was with Howdy (karen Sally debunked <3). The second thought I had was “maybe Sally senses the queer in Eddie and it intimidates her” - which would make sense if Sally is a lesbian like I suspect. Internalized homophobia, anyone? This holds up if Eddie is going to turn out to be - not open about himself, but comfortable in his skin in a way that, say, Frank isn’t. Which I have a feeling that will be the case, which would likely make Sally put on airs even more so than usual. 

Anyone else seeing a continuous trend of (social) masks and performances unfolding in the Neighborhood? I sure am.

But let’s talk about why I think they might be foils. They balance each other out in an interesting way, despite their only solid similarity being that Both will work/perform no matter the weather. They have a lot of closely related differences:

Eddie has been mentioned (and implied within the story so far) to have a deeper well of knowledge than he lets on, but acts humble about it. Sally has been mentioned (and implied) to know less than she portrays, but acts like a bit of a know-it-all - she pretends to know things that she doesn’t. 

Eddie’s role is about helping others at his own expense, while Sally’s is using others to reach fame. 

Eddie strives to connect with his Neighbors and is all about accuracy/precision. Sally is in her own little world and has proved to be more than willing to improvise / not think things through before acting.

Eddie is slow to anger, and Sally is easily irritated. 

Selfless vs Selfish.

Night vs Day. 

And to put them in the Johari Window - i believe that Sally resides in the Blind Spot (known to others, not known to self), and Eddie resides in either the Facade (not known to others, known to self) OR the Unknown (not known to others, not known to self). Personally I’m starting to believe that Eddie may reside in both. 

It’s far too early to draw any real conclusions, and theorizing on all of this is difficult. I feel as though - as usual - we have puzzle pieces but no frame of reference for the way they fit together, what picture they build. And who knows, tomorrow’s update may shred this to ribbons, but I doubt it. 

One thought I had was that they’re in cahoots about something - it doesn’t have to be something malicious or some sort of secret plot, it could simply be something they both know and are trying to keep quiet about. Eddie is trying to connect with Sally since they have this in common, but Sally is actively putting distance between them to preserve their secret / plausible deniability. Do I actually believe this? Meh. I’m just throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks.

So current base thoughts: Sally is dismissive of Eddie either because he intimidates/scares her on an internalized level, or she’s actively trying to put distance between them for a currently unknown reason. There’s probably a secret third option I haven’t even considered!
