Some gifs from TFT's new "Into the Arcane".

Some Sevika specs and Vi coming into the scene.

Renni comes in with a CHAINSAW! But Silco's not having any of that, and Ekko's not having any of Silco.

Arcane s2e1 spoiler: __________________________________________________ The way the uppercity treats the memorial's attack like an act of absolute evil. The way they built statues for people who at best never cared for Zaun and at worst harmed its inhabitant as much as they could. The way the attack's perpetrator was a woman aiming to avenge the death of her son, killed by one of Piltover's darling. And the way no one cares for her motives. The way no one cares for Zaunites. It mirrors the way they've always been treated: They've been starved and smothered and beat down for years upon years, but all it took was the death of three people the uppercity deemed important for them to declare war on their victims. So I ask you: Why is a mother's grief unimportant while Caitlyn's a tragedy? Why are Zaun's attacks unforgivable while Piltover's are justified? Why are some lives more worthy than others?

Question for Arcane Nation: who are your top three councilors? And who are your top three chembarons? Based on design and vibes.

AU Silco concept from artbook

[alisha-on-arcane]

Whenever I try to write fic set in the time Vander had the kids, I am reminded quite how poor a parenting plan "send them out on the streets with vague instructions to come back with saleable valuables" is. Especially for a well-established pillar of the community! Like, either they're going to rob in Piltover (meaning trouble with Enforcers) or in Zaun (yay, robbing from people who are mostly poorer than Vander, while Vander himself upholds undercity contract law in The Last Drop).

Silco's parenting plan wasn't *great* but he at least tried to use Jinx's natural strengths in high-value roles in the family business. And supported her having a workshop for technical experiments. And told her to take time off when it wasn't working out. And probably knew what she was doing most days.

Benzo seems to have Ekko in hand: he works in the shop, presumably is getting a practical education in the shop's wares, and doesn't go on risky thieving missions himself. Renni had her son working in a factory with some safety measures. These seem like the more responsible end of the spectrum of undercity parenting, like, there's a potential not-petty-criminal career path there.

(I wrote this mostly as comedy in Stillwater Marriage, and this traumatised forced single parent of a pre-teen criminal gang is doing his best, but... the more you try to write Vander as a parent, the more this passivity stands out. Even by undercity standards!)

watched the s1 finale with my sister two days ago (but it was like semi-late when we finished watching and then some shit happened the next day so i didn't post her thoughts until now):

"vander would go on my hear me out cake"

"she has the fighting equivalent to blue balls. she's all revved up and no one to punch" (about vi when jayce left her with the gauntlets)

"i think you're just talking out of your ass" (about silco after renni's son died)

"i would've had your son killed for this" "i would've punch him in the face cause who the fuck does he think he is"

"you could go back to noxus if you like to talk about it so much" (about ambessa)

"with respect, i don't give a shit what any of you think of me anymore" "period, kind of attractive of him to say, just that though. i don't forgive how you've neglected viktor"

"this is a dinner party from hell"

"i was hating him but now i feel bad for him" (about heimerdinger)

i jokingly called the show a masterpiece sometime after we finished watching and she went "i wouldn't say that" so do with that what you will

"kay but the thing is, nothing he said was wrong" (about finn after he died)

"are they flirting?" (about jayvik when they were on the ledge)

"i feel bad for her but i'm not sad that he's dead" (about jinx and silco)

the credits rolled and she went "i'm sorry what" which is so me-watching-arcane-for-the-first-time-coded of her to do

"there's too much moral greyness for me"

okay and then i had her list her top 5 and bottom 5 characters (she struggled to find three more top characters after the first two, probably tells you a lot about her viewing experience)

top 5:

vander: "he has clear morals and he's just trying to protect his people and he's a good father figure"

ekko: "he's the little guy, when we first meet him that is, he's like a tech wiz. and for him to build this place, i'm proud of him"

caitlyn: "she's an actual good enforcer like she's actually trying to listen to the people"

viktor: "he just wants to help people and he's looked over a lot and downgraded so he tries not to do the same"

claggor: "he's just a homie, he's a ride or die, literally, i don't know, he just has a special place in my heart" (that "literally" was UNNECESSARY)

bottom 5:

silco: "he is the archenemy. he is persona non grata. he. killed. vander. so- he's also a crime lord who doesn't care about his own people. silco doesn't have a code. silco has no scruples"

sevika: "sevika is just annoying. why she tryna kill vi all the time? i mean vi's tryna kill her but-"

marcus: "i hate a crooked cop"

jinx: "the crimes. like the killing of those six cops, and the almost killing of caitlyn, and the kidnapping of cailtyn. like she's obviously a pawn of silco's so that's why she's lower than silco but she did some crime independently"

ambessa: "ambessa's a bad mother"

special mention: deckard: "he is bad, he was really creepy and a predator" and any of silco's goons (reason is obvious i guess)

and these are her thoughts on some of the characters who aren't in either of those lists (no ranked order, just the order she spoke about them):

jayce: "i don't care about [him], you're a bad friend and i hate when people are bad friends"

mel: "you're kind of two-faced but i do feel bad about the situation with your mom"

vi: "i'm still upset with what you said to powder but i like that you're trying to make up for it but unfortunately words stick"

cassandra: "booo *thumbs down*" (that's it i guess i don't-)

mylo: "booo *thumbs down* i feel bad that he died but he was really mean to powder"

heimerdinger: "i judged him quickly cause he was a bit annoying but by the end, he had a warm place in my heart and i always go back to him in the orchestra" (the scene with ray chen's insert)

sky: "i feel so bad for her. it's also kind of a commentary. even without meaning to, the man destroyed her to save himself"

tobias: "he cares about his daughter and what she wants and realizes there's a time and place for chastising"

Hello Arcane fandom. I would like to play a game. Before you stands a nuanced, complex female character. Beneath you is a gigantic vat of Hydrochloric Acid dyed bright green for aesthetic purposes. You have 5 minutes to discuss the character without using words like "justified" "justification" nor any mentions of what does or does not count as "excusing her actions," or else you will be plunged into the vat. Your time starts now.

[vaseflowerstt]

yall hating on vi and jayce saying they can’t get shit done (they can’t) wait till you see the chembarons those motherfuckers can’t do anything without getting themselves killed

[purpleshimmer]

I will now be petitioning for a chem baron spinoff show. I will personally go into millions of dollars of debt to fund it

and before you say “spinoff shows always suck!” this one won’t because I said so

[srslylini]

the way season 2 is so far removed from its story that remembering Renni attacking the memorial for her son feels like it was from a whole other season/show

like do you all remember how this season started out cause.

[kupakaa]

I've forgotten to say it before now, but does anyone else think Renni is a bit hot?

Sorry for low res pictures, but idk that crazy look has me purring 🥴

As We Fall Chapter 55 "Excessive Force" is Posted!

I'm incredibly pleased to being fighting past the hurt and getting towards the comfort y'all!

Next chapters are coming soon, and I promise that though awkwardness and angst will ensue so will the fluffiness because I'm a huge sucker for fluff, for real for real.

Thanks for sticking around Tumblr friends! I don't know y'all as well as my AO3 gang, but you're also the real ones so thank you fam for your support <3
