how can anyone get excited for anything anymore when it'll probably just get canceled after one season. how are fandoms gonna continue to flourish when they have to act as walking billboards and advertisements just so that the creators can actually tell their story in full. how can streaming services expect fans to support their favorite shows when they don't even bother advertising their own shows or making merch. how can netflix continue to market themselves as a way for creators to tell their stories without executive meddling when a well established showrunner can pitch 18 new ideas and the only ones that get approved are reboots based on previous ips. how can a show get high ratings on rotten tomatoes and praised for having good writing, representation, storytelling, music, etc. and win awards but still get canned bc god forbid someone asks for higher wages and be paid fairly for their labor. hate hate hate death to all streaming services

but yes ofc you can!!

[idkwhatimdoingbutslay]

… I can’t imagine that we actually watched the same show. Like I REALLY AISNSOSNWKMEJDND

hold on I’m gonna need to calm down.

Let me just make a list of why I disagree and at least organize my anger. Long post incoming.

Vander was friends and had a deal with Grayson. The sheriff. Idk what else to even add to that

Caitlyn is more than a cop and Arcane isn’t copaganda. Genuinely don’t know what kind of progress some of these people are looking for. Real allies are a necessity for real progress.

SILCO IS A CLASS TRAITOR. HE FUNNELLED DRUGS INTO THE UNDERCITY AND PUT POOR KIDS IN FACTORIES FOR THAT DRUG FOR PROFIT!!! HE PAID THE ENFORCERS TO LET HIM DO IT WITHOUT CONSEQUENCE

Vi is not as much as an activist as you would like to believe

WHY IS EKKO NEVER EVER BROUGHT UP IN THESE CONVERSATIONS????

Silco was not good for the Undercity

Silco was not a great guy. Ekko had to build an entire separate hidden community for the people he hurt and stepped on for his own benefit

Caitlyn is ignorant and naive. That’s ok. That’s what character development is for.

Loving imperfect characters like Silco and Jinx then hating characters like Vi and Caitlyn is peak media illiteracy to me

FOR THE LAST TIME: VI DIDNT ABANDON POWDER!!!!! Silco literally wanted Vi DEAD for trying to stop him from killing Vander??? How could you possibly say silco was there for jinx when Vi refused to be???? SHE WAS IN PRISON BECAUSE OF HIM???

Silco’s manipulation is working wonders on y’all

Embracing all the outrage without at all looking out for the people harmed by bigotry is not activism

SILCO IS A CLASS TRAITOR x929282929394

Caitlyn was the first person in years to show Vi kindness and care. She listened and stuck by her and took care of her after Vi was locked up for years and beat up by cops (i wonder what led her to be thrown in there?). Cait being a cop stopped being a point of contention once Vi recognized her naivety and genuineness.

NUANCE NUANCE NUANCE. ITS NEVER EVER BLACK AND WHITE

The only way I can see Vi touching ‘class traitor’ in season one was the shimmer raid. Guess who the hell put those kids in there in the first place.

Just hanging out with Caitlyn isn’t being a class traitor if Vander’s allowed to be friends with Grayson.

Critical thinking is very necessary for watching shows like Arcane

What the hell did Silco really do for the Undercity???? What changed over the 7(ish) years he was basically in power of the place? All I’ve heard was he made the air cleaner, which would be great except for, you know, shimmer and the child factory workers

Jinx is unwell and feeding into it like this in a fully serious manor would not help Arcane as a show at all

What do you want Arcane’s message as a full show to be? ‘Screw cops’? That’s a little boring and unproductive isn’t it?

CAN WE TALK ABOUT EKKO AND HIS IMPACT PLEASE???? x9382728283

Caitlyn is trying to make Piltover and Zaun a better place. Is that not allowed? Am I missing something?

Caitlyn and Vi’s arcs have only just started. Season one is basically fully set up except for characters like silco and Jinx. This is far from the end.

Genuinely think Vander would appreciate Vi for being friends (using this term loosely because they are in love) with Caitlyn considering he was the one who was opposed to war and Vi wasn’t.

Silco should NOT be your idea of Undercity independence and respect. He oppressed the Undercity the same way the Council and the Enforcers did. He helped no one but himself, his team (barely) and Jinx.

You’re allowed to like and dislike any character you want but pretending like Silco is better for the Undercity than others is just so ridiculous to me. Everyone is of course completely allowed to like Silco, but we can’t pretend like he’s this stand up guy. If you have to pretend like he was, maybe you don’t like him as much as you think.

“Because Cait’s pretty” is also incredibly incorrect. Go check point #14.

Vi never stopped loving and caring for Powder. Powder’s mental health issues were amplified and utilized by Silco because he couldn’t even heal himself.

If all of your opinions of Caitlyn and Vi start and end with “cops suck” and “class traitor” then you genuinely don’t respect Arcane as a show enough to show you nuance.

The misinterpretation of characters is just so … it’s like you go out of your way to love and/or hate characters no matter how much they show you who you are.

Your closed mindedness is clouding your judgement and making you out to seem like you don’t actually want the Undercity’s triumph, you want Silco and Jinx’s, even if it means ruining the Undercity. And that would be fine because father/daughter evil duo but trying to say you’re all for this duo because you want what’s better for the Undercity when they continue to hurt it is simply not correct and very harmful (to fictional characters in a fictional universe 😭)

Only being able to understand how Silco and Jinx were oppressed and therefore should be able to not just destroy Piltover but also Zaun is not the eat you think it is

Why is Viktor never called a class traitor? I think he's great (I also think Silco and Jinx are wonderfully written) but we hardly saw him in the Undercity/ interact with people from the Undercity plus he killed someone (Sky) from there (accidentally)

EDIT TO ADD ANOTHER POINT: Caitlyn has shown little to NO malicious intent and has no real negative impacts other than Jinx’s attachment issues and insecurities being amplified by her mere existence. Again, this is her story and development. Throughout the season she is exposed to reality and recognizes her and her peers/ families wrongs. I have no idea what you want from this character. Should Piltover just be gotten rid of in the story? Then what? Should Caitlyn have just never gotten involved and continued to embrace her privilege? Should she have left Vi in prison and stay ignorant?

“Everyone in my life has changed. Promise me you won’t change.”

I’m still trying to find my style for the arcane characters so my art might be a little clunky until I find my footing. Here’s Vi as she loses herself and her principles, releasing The Grey upon her own people, her 𝙨𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧, for the one person that’s shown her kindness in a very long time. Only to be betrayed moments later. I have so many thoughts about act one and so many hopes for act two.

caitvi request for a friend ♡

[my-life-is-a-bad-sitcom]

Wade: Do you want the burnt cookie pieces from the pan?

Matt: …

Matt: Do they taste good?

Wade: God no, I would rather remove my arm with a spoon than eat these.

Matt: Then why do you think I’d want them?

Wade: You just seem like the kind of guy who likes to make himself unhappy

alrighty, few thoughts on the sneak peek "Enemy of my Enemy" (also if you're someone who's already watched the leaks don't comment, you'll be blocked. Thank you.)

people were speculating that this was Silco wrapped up in a bow, but I'm positive that it's just Fishbones. you can kinda tell by the overall shape of it, the tail by Jinx's right arm has points on the top and bottom, and the head is by Jinx's left and is larger. So she's probably just trying to hide the thing that she just bombed the council with. Also Silco's a pretty tall individual so unless she has him bent in half or something there's no way she's carrying him. (I also put a screenshot from ep 9 just to compare the two)

Jinx's makeup is still streaked on her face so this is implying that this is happening pretty quickly after she fires Fishbones. but what's Interesting is that Smeech (i believe that's his name) says "They want you alive" but i don't think it has to do with Caitlyn and the Enforcers Yet, but it actually has to do with Jayce and wanting Silco to hand over Jinx from back in ep 9, and news of that made its way to the Undercity. and they're reaction to Jinx saying "when i killed him" makes me believe that they didn't even know that Silco had passed yet. So them ambushing Jinx to me means they were looking to get back at Silco and they knew Jinx was a weak point for him.

On the other hand, i was right about this scene not happening during Caitlyn and Vi's fight vs Jinx in the temple (okay, we still don't have complete confirmation that Caitlyn's there the two stills that i mentioned in other posts just connects those dots for me). Initially i thought that the fog/smog/whatever wasn't quite dark enough to match, and it appears i was correct in that assumption.

But it appears as though Jinx and Sevika are going to have a "Enemy of my Enemy is my friend" sorta relationship in S2. despite the two's animosity towards each other, the two were still loyal to Silco.

But that does leave me with one thought... this scene from the teaser:

I do not believe that this is happening immediately after this clip; for a couple of reasons. One when Sevika shoots the hat, Jinx looks just about as surprised as everyone else in the scene; like she wasn't expecting Sevika to be there at all, she was by herself up until then. The person next to Jinx seems to be a kid and the other crime lords aren't there anymore. Also if you slow it down and rewatch it, Jinx has her handgun back on her hip. and Jinx has built Sevika's uhhh "piranha arm" and they're probably just having her test it out or something and Smeech is working with them at that point.

So yea just me on my nonsense just yapping as usual. But that's all for now until more Legitimate stuff comes from the Arcane team. bye!
