#and i hate it

[1296-very-good-year]

S2 actually doesn't commit to saying Hextech was inherently bad. It's just Jayce + Viktor who were bad.

Heimerdinger, Ekko, and Jayce muse about the possibility that the Arcane itself is an evil corrupting influence. Then they find the anomaly, and Jayce is whisked away to the torment nexus to stew on this possibility. What does he learn there? Let's ask his flashbacks to find out!

He comes to regret kicking Heimerdinger off the council, and his dream of inventing Hextech altogether. It is only after he dismantles his Hextech hammer - and leaves it behind - that he's able to escape the pit.

I have SO MANY problems with this, but I'm going to stick with one here: the omnipotent, all-powerful, timeline-hopping futureViktor is the one leaving Jayce to suffer and learn this lesson.

When a writer (who is all-knowing) creates an all-knowing character, they give themselves the ability to interact directly with their own story and characters. Jayce supposedly needed to learn that Hextech was bad and was always going to go bad. He is forcibly, tortuously taught by the writers that his dream was wrong from the start.

Sounds pretty cut and dry, right? Hextech is bad. HOWEVER:

At the same time, in the same episode that Jayce is learning this, Heimerdinger enjoys 3 years of peace in a Good AU where he learns that actually magic is okay sometimes, and helps Ekko invent a Hextech device that saves the day. Maybe he should have been a more supportive teacher to Jayce after all!

And yet... Jayce is NEVER corrected on his assumption that s1 Heimerdinger was right. He goes off on his suicidal mission fully believing it, and he dies believing it.

There exists no timeline in which Jayce and Viktor are able to get their shit together without ending the world. It wasn't Hextech = bad. It was Jayce + Viktor = bad.

Maybe Hextech is just fine. As long as someone else invents it.

You know something that really bothers me about Hazbin Hotel Lucifer? Is that he actually make sense in the first half of the episode and it make me like him!

We know that Lucifer brings the free will to humans, but why he did that for? Feeling better about himself than the elders? To prove a point? Just for the sake of it? It could really show how of a unrealable narrator he is. Showing His selfish action as an altruistic choice.

When he is casted away in hell, he has EVERY RIGHT to be pissed that His plan didn't work out, why? Bc humans WITH FREE WILL are more propence to be SINFULL! Proving that he was wrong! And Even though he bring this upon humanity never really takes responsabilty!

That's a Sin of Pride that i like! He trow the stone but hide the Hand. And now it's stuck with HIS mistakes, but blames it on the humans for being sinfull (it's hypocrytal, at the same time makes sense, i loved it!).

The fact that he himself says that the sinners are THE WORST, that they have FREE WILL to do all the horrible things that send them to HELL(bc after all NOBODY WHO IS IN HELL IS INNOCENT) it's such a wasted plot line and it could have so much more INTERESTING for the plot of all of the first season.

But noooo, lets have the war with fucking heaven---

an insane man's thoughts on aging in Reverse: 1999

I've been observing the character ages for a while now and I'm connecting dots.

None of the characters who were picked up in the current "Storm" era are aging. X has remained 16 for the past 3 years, Eagle is still 12 years old up until now, Avgust is still 8 years old, etc. Regulus should have been 16-17 now with how her birthday has passed not only once but likely twice.

On the other hand though, everyone from the original timeline is. The SPDM and the Apeiron crew continued to grow up after 1999, Greta was 38 at death, Tooth Fairy was 18 when she entered the Foundation and is 25 now, Lilya very clearly grew up while training in Zeno, etc.

At first I thought all of these age disputes never made sense because they still can't be that abysmally young because that would mean the writers were careless. I thought that UTTU probably just never the character ages but it never made sense either because UTTU would never have been the type to leave the character ages like that unless there's a reason.

My theory is that the bodies of all of the post-"Storm" characters (as of now, all those prior to 1990) stop aging because they were taken out of their respective era. Everyone knows that everyone exists somewhere and at some point in time in the world, right? We all have an era we belong to and a birthplace to call home. (or not) Or in other words, we have a "point of origin."

Because of the "Storm" erasing their respective era, the very origin of a character's existence, would that have led to many character's bodies being affected and essentially 'frozen' in time? They can't physically age and it's likely that they also can't mentally age because their "point of origin" had been erased or they were taken out from it, giving no space for them to actually age because they live in a time that doesn't belong to them.

However, the original timeline continues to thrive because the immunity zones in the world are the ONLY places where time isn't affected by the "Storm." The first survivors are still aging in the first place because the era of 1999 and beyond never exactly ceased to exist for them.

It explains a lot of things, and it can graphed out later when I have the time.

disclaimer: I wrote this in the middle of the night while trying to write and organize the "knowing our arcanists" entries. just because my words feel right doesnt mean i sound even remotely sane at the time of writing.

DC writers: So he'll be with Joe Chill's daughter, she has purple hair!

Me: Why would you do that?

DC writers: And her middle name is Martha!

Me: Why... Why you make that her middle name?!

DC Writers: They're going to be a couple!

Me: I'm a fanfiction writer and I wouldn't even write that! The implications of this mentally traumatized man dating the daughter of his parents killer is so fucked up that I can't fathom why you did this!

DC Writers: Oh come on, it's not that bad. It's just a harmless-

Me: No, no! This isn't because I ship him with Selina, this is not a good ship! This is like that else world story where he marries Jason's therapist or when he screwed Barbara Gordon. Bruce doesn't need to bang every single woman that's near him! I'd take him with Wonder Woman over this!
