• MORE CLAGGOR!!! (Alt Timeline) •

Also new profile picture!!! You all can feel free to crop any of the art and use it as PFPs, AS LONG AS PROPER CREDIT IS USED!!!!

Here you go, Claggor enthusiasts, I will make sure to be all of you guys private, number one chef in providing all the Claggor content our hearts sorely need! If you would like to read the HC annotations besides the illustrations, feel free to do so! This will probably be how I will tackle my own headcanons: by drawing them out. Hell, I might even start some drawing requests just all about Claggor, but I'm still on the fence about it....

(Also, might or might not start posting self-indulgent OC x Claggor art, but I'd have to let the voices in my head and the voices of the people decide...)

AITAH FOR GHOSTING MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS FOR THREE YEARS, FOR MY OWN MENTAL HEALTH?

Posted 7th of January, 2024

Disclaimer: mentions of self-harm, violence, and attempted suicide.

Please bear with me. This post will be long.

I (20f) have been estranged from my family for the past three years.

I want to start off by saying that my family aren't bad people. They were never abusive, and they did care for me, but they could never understand me or the full extent of my issues.

Some background. When I was around five, my sister (26f), we'll call her V, and I witnessed our parents' death at the hands of some trigger-happy Enforcers. We don't know why they decided our parents deserved to die, but they did, and we were left orphaned when the authorities couldn't find any other family to take us in.

We bounced around in the system for a while, fearing being torn from each other at any moment, before a family friend was able to foster and then officially adopt us. Our AD (adoptive dad) was a godsend, he was and still (to my knowledge) is the most patient and gentle man I know. Despite looking like a wolf LOL.

Along with gaining a new father we also gained two brothers (twin 23m) the older twin (C) takes after our dad, Kind and patient. The younger twin (M) however is a little nasty bitch, who took upon himself to make my life in particular an ongoing hell. He was never physically abusive, but he was verbally abusive. It felt like not a day would go by when he wasn't putting me down and treating my existence like it was something insignificant. He never had a problem with V, just me.

For the first six years everyone else would defend me, put him in his place, and overall hold him accountable but at some point, they stopped holding him accountable and just expected me to grow a thicker skin. I still remember the day when I went crying to my sister and rather than comfort me, just rolled her eyes and asked if I could maybe not take him seriously because she needed to finish her group project. To her credit, she apologised for that but it was hard to rely on her after that.

Long story short, M made my home life unbearable, and I had bullies at school that made it unbearable. Especially once I was in high school and my best (and only) friend started making friends of his own. I want to say that I was cool with this, but in reality, I turned into an absolute brat and refused to get along with any of them. I wish I didn't, but I just couldn't help but feel betrayed and genuinely acted on those emotions.

And this is how I was with everyone. Constantly betrayed and acting out. It was no wonder everyone I knew got sick of me.

My Dad was constantly worrying about me.

My older brother avoided me as much as possible, to avoid my outbursts.

My sister was just constantly swinging between feeling guilty, angry, and just done with my constant outbursts. Especially when these outbursts were directed at her girlfriend, who constantly talked about how she wanted to be an Enforcer to protect others (take a wild guess why I couldn't like her). V even slapped me for something I said (I can't remember what) to her GF that made her cry.

And my best friend... hates me.

It's my own fault, obviously.

What led to the title of my post is this.

I told my (former) best friend that I loved him and wanted to be with him, and he just raged at me. Apparently, he was seeing someone and thought that I was pulling something in order to break them up. He didn't believe me when I said that I didn't know he was in a relationship (I genuinely didn't know) but he wouldn't hear it and called me an AH and said he was done with me.

I felt humiliated and heartbroken, when I got home that day I was crying and M was the first person, unfortunately, who I came across. And the first thing he does is scoff and roll his eyes, and said "fucking crybaby".

I don't fully remember what happened, I blacked out, but I remember my dad pulling me off of M and his face was a bloody mess. I'm pretty sure that I broke his nose and then some, my dad was so angry. The angriest I've ever seen him; he actually shook me by the shoulders and demanded what was wrong with me. And when I couldn't answer, they told me to get out. Which I did.

I just bolted from the house, the sound of shouting behind me, and just kept running until I got to the Bridge of Progress.

I was just so empty and lost, and the water below looked so tempting. I was about to end it all when my guardian angel showed up.

Ez (21m) was walking by when he saw me about to jump and, without hesitation, climbed up next to me and asked what we were doing.

He saved me that day, without even trying. He listened to my whining and rather than offer me empty promises of "it'll be okay" instead said "girl you messed up. Wanna go on an adventure with me?"

We've been friends ever since.

I took him on his offer and went home to collect some things, when I got there the lights were off so I climbed up to my bedroom window and let myself in. I grabbed my clothes, some saved up cash, my laptop, and my documents (in case I needed them) and left a note for my family saying "bye".

And that was three years ago. I haven't been in contact with them, I don't follow them on social media, and I left my mobile behind so they were never able to get hold of me.

I completely and utterly. Ghosted them. And I don't entirely regret it.

In the last three years I have gained close friends, experienced new things, seen interesting things, and have felt well enough to actually want to seek therapy. My mental health improved greatly, although I still have issues but still am lot better than I was before.

However, I can't help but feel like an AH. My family weren't bad, just fed up. They are genuinely good people (even M) it's just that I bring the worst out in people. But recently I've been wondering if I should reach out or not.

What if doing so disrupts their lives? What if my leaving improved their lives?

I don't know.

AITAH if I reach out to my family after ghosting them for three years?

[yrrtyrrtwhenihrrthrrt]

Headcanons about Mylo and Claggor's parents / how they came into Vander's care because I love them and wish the fandom wouldn't forget they exist:

Claggor- I think Claggor would have been the first after Vi and Powder to join the family, since he seems more well-established and comfortable in his role in S1A1. As someone on here pointed out (I'll tag them if anyone can remind me who lol) adult Claggor looks freakishly like Vander's bio child. I don't take Vander for a deadbeat dad, so I headcanon that Claggor was his nephew or some other relation. Vander's sister, who he was not very close with, died from Gray-related illness/cancer like Viktor had, and Claggor's father overworked himself trying to pay for her medicine and support his child, resulting in his death in a factory accident. They told Claggor to go to Vander if anything happened to them, as he was his only other family, so Vander of course took him in when his orphaned nephew showed up at his door.

Mylo - I imagine Mylo was raised by a young single mother, who had a penchant for breaking into buildings and stealing shit to get by. She knew how to lockpick and taught Mylo, often bringing him along on heists because she had nobody to look after him. Eventually she crossed the wrong person topside and got thrown into Stillwater. Grayson delivered the child to Vander figuring he would get him someplace safe. Vander originally intended to foster Mylo until his mother was out of prison, but she died from the brutality and harsh conditions in Stillwater, so New Son permanently acquired for Vander.

It's kinda fucked up but given what we understand about Zaun, these seem like likely ways kids were orphaned. I also wanted to provide some context for their characters, like why Claggor is so diligent and responsible (his dad and role model assumed total responsibility over his and his mom's health and worked himself to death over it) and Mylo is so insecure and childish (he never had an actual responsible parent until Vander, only a literal teenager who was doing her best just to keep him alive, nevermind imparting life lessons of how to be a good person) and also why he possessed this lock picking skill that none of the others, seemingly including Vander, had.

[gaymilfbrainrot]

random Arcane Headcanons

in the universe where Vi died, Mylo grows his mustache in her honor because he knows how stupid she would think it is. every time he looks in the mirror, he can almost hear her giving him shit for it and every time, he smiles sadly before going about his day.

Vi used to carry Powder around on her shoulders a lot. sometimes Ekko will jump on Claggor's shoulders and they'll have chicken fights that usually end with at least one broken piece of furniture.

Vi always tried to beat Vander at arm wrestling when she was little. Sometimes he'd pretend to lose and she would always notice and give him that cute lil pouty face.

Mylo is a fairly decent card player and is frequently seen winning bets when playing with other bar patrons. sometimes Vi has to save his sorry ass when some of said patrons don't like to lose.

[beforetimes]

can not wait to write all my fun goofy fics set in the arcane alternate timeline... things off the top of my head i want to write about is ekko fumbling thru a first date with powder, mylo and claggor trying to wingman for him after finding out that he likes powder (after giving him a shovel talk, of course), ekko and gert becoming begrudging friends, silco becoming zaun's resident barber after powder's mom dies, vander and silco old man yaoi from one of the kid's perspective.

more serious ideas include ekko's reaction to when the group come back from that job and find out about vi's death, a long form fic about powder and ekko growing up and moving past this shared grief and guilt to eventually get together, the idea of silco coming back to vander after hearing about vi's death, etc etc etc. i love arcane!! so excited. going to finish this school term + exams and dive in

[the-dumpster-fire-of-life]

Home

"Vi…" You all but sobbed, tears in your eyes as you struggled to breathe. 

"No! No, don't talk." Vi struggled, tears in her eyes and a sob caught in her throat.

She held her hand on your bleeding stomach, her hands covered crimson red in a matter of seconds.

She felt her chest almost suffocating her, like the sight of her childhood love dying In front of her wasn't bad enough.

"I'm gonna pick you up, okay?" Vi tried, only getting a yell of pain out of you as she set you back down.

"Vi, I can't. I can't." You cried, shaking your head and holding her hand as she shook head.

"I know it hurts but we have to get you to Caitlyn, she knows a doctor." Vi tried consoling you and her.

But she didn't know how much longer she could.

"Vi. I wanna go home." You stated, a tear falling down your face as you sobbed.

Vi let a tear fall, wiping it quickly as she picked you up to cradle you in her arms.

Maybe to console you, or maybe to hide her tears she refused to let you see.

"I'm gonna get you there, Caitlyn's waiting for us." Vi did her best not to pet her voice crack.

"No." You shook your head, sobbing even more and struggling to even speak now.

"I wanna go home, home. With Powder, Vander, Ekko, Claggor, Benzo." 

You stated, finally looking back at Vi to see her tears.

"Fucking even Mylo." You sobbed, the pain killing you from inside out.

"I wanna be a kid again…" 

Vi clung to you even tighter at your words, she wanted it all back so much.

When you guys were happy. With everyone you both loved crowded around a bar.

When you guys would stay up all night after Vander fell asleep.

Jumping from rooftop to rooftop with your friends.

Helping Ekko find whatever he needed for whatever new gift he wanted to give to Powder.

Drawing with Powder, making fun of Mylo, pulling pranks with Claggor or helping Vi win a fight.

It all sounded so far away, like that life never existed because of a man who wanted revenge.

Who turned the sweet girl you knew into the one who left you in a pool of blood.

The girl who, even if you or Vi didn't know, was sobbing as she had hurt one of the few people who truly loved her.

Your breathing was hard, but suddenly grew quiet, almost a whisper.

Vi sobbed, cradling you to her chest as she couldn't bear to look at your face.

Too afraid to see your eyes missing the light and love in them she had adored her whole life.

"(Name)...please, no." Vi cried into your hair, desperately pleading for her in any chance, to come back.

But there was no coming back from this.

So Vi sat there with you, long after Caitlyn found her, long after you grew cold.

Crying about how she had failed to keep that promise nine years old she made to nine year old you.

.

.

.

"(Name)! Wake up!"

You all but fell out of bed, springing up at the voice you hadn't heard in years.

You groaned as you hit your head on the top bunk, shaking it off with a groan before looking around.

You were stunned.

You were back in the den.

Back in the bar. In your old bed, in your old clothes.

You looked at your hands, they were no longer littered with small scars from prison fights.

"What's wrong with you? You look like a fuckin alien who landed for the first time."

You almost rolled your eyes out of instinct, you would have, if not recognizing the familiar mop of brown hair.

"Leave (Name) alone." You watched wide eyed as you saw Powder shove Mylo. 

You must've seen a ghost from how you looked, seeing Mylo standing with no hole in his shoulder.

You saw no pole stabbed through his shoulder paired with blood and dust from rocks from his death.

No.

You saw brown eyes full of annoyance, a white and dusty shirt void of blood and death and instead a brown mop of hair.

"Whatever." Mylo shrugged the girl off, sticking his tongue out at her childishly.

"Vi needs you in the bar." And with that, Mylo walked up the stairs and seemed to go join Claggor.

"...Powder?" You finally spoke up, seeing the girl jump up and turn to you with a smile.

There was no hatred in her eyes as you came back from prison, no sadness a girl her age shouldn’t have ever known.

You saw Powder, an excited twelve year old who showed you inventions with pink and blue marker paint on her cheeks and clothes.

No Jinx. Just Powder.

"Finally, you're awake! Come on, slowpoke!" Powder dragged you out of bed, almost tripping you.

You were dragged up the stairs, too shocked to protest and looking around with the same wide eyes.

The bar looked the same as you had left it, no rave-like party, no shimmer users.

No Sevika.

No Silco.

Just music you remembered Vander always played, a song he would drag you kids to do funny dances to with him growing up.

Just the regular customers you always remembered seeing as a kid straggling around the bar.

"Hey! You got 'em up finally!" You looked shocked to see Vi, like you had gone back in time.

She was still fifteen, like you were now. 

No tattoos, just her shaggy hair and smug ass grin staring at you.

"What? Stunned by me once again, sweetheart?" Vi asked with a smirk, finally snapping you out of it.

"You wish." You said, almost out of instinct as Powder dragged you to a barstool.

You sat on one the right of Vi, Powder sitting on her left as you then saw Claggor.

"You slept like a rock. I think bears sleep lighter than you." Claggor laughed, getting a small giggle out of Powder.

"Shush, Clag." You shook off with a smile before seeing someone you didn't think you would see again.

There stood Vander, a towel over his shoulder as he set a glass down on the bar.

"Vander?" You finally asked, a smile making its way onto your face and tears you stopped from falling in your eyes.

"Hey, Kiddo." Vander smiled back, almost like he had known what you had thought.

Like he knew what happened and how you were back…home.

"What's wrong, (Name)? Happy to be home?" He asked, noticing the tears in your eyes.

You quickly wipe your eyes, laughing to cover up your sniffle as you recover with a smile.

"No, yeah, I'm okay. Just…happy to see you guys again." Vander nodded with a knowing smile.

"See us? Where the hell did you go enough to miss us and why did you come back?" 

Mylo poked back up, giving you a weirded out look.

"Nothing, asshole. Can't I miss my friends?"

You could miss them, but now, you're home.

Where you belong. Even if it wasn't real.

Young vi headcanons! 💗

No NSFW, cursing, warnings, etc. 🍰

Enjoy !! ୨୧

Characters: Vi, Powder, Mylo, Claggor, Ekko, and Vander.

Series: Arcane League Of legends

1. Loves Shirley temples. She asked Vander if he could please make her one, ending up loving it. Eventually, she got Mylo, Claggor, Powder, Ekko, even Vander to try it. Needless to say, they all now love Shirley temples. Not much as her though.

2. On Halloween, her, Mylo, Claggor, powder & Ekko would walk to Piltover, all dressed up in their costumes and find the neighborhoods with the king sized candy bars. Obviously Vander told them that was very dangerous and to quote on quote, “Stay out of Piltover’s business”. But hey, they were happy.

3. Some nights, after a bad haul, or a haul that didn’t go as planned, she’ll just sit on the couch and stay there, ending up falling asleep. She would wake up either laid on one of the couches, or with a blanket over her. Thanks Vander.

4. Along with drinks, Vi also loves root beer floats, eventually getting Powder to like them as well. Though, Powder only gets served them on special occasions. Because, in Mylo’s words, “it makes her jump off the walls.” It’s just root beer with ice cream (and whip cream) though, they still enjoy it.

5. Painted her nails once. She tried it out but immediately took it off.

[uncannycharlie]

Does anyone have any arcane fic recs where Mylo, Claggor, and Vander live?? I need to feed my delusions 😭😭

[sunlit6279]

what kind of music do you think the arcane characters would listen to? asking because you seem like a chill dude

First off, anon what’s your opinion on marriage? Hey, anon, what’s your ring size? Secondly 😃 and for reals this time, this is a brilliant ask, I’ll happily take up on your request

But just fyi, I’m BIG into popculture. AND gen z (don’t throw tomatoes at me omg) so maybe you can imagine what kind of music I listen to 😭 but I also like to think that my playlist can be quite diverse. But idk we might still have a very different music taste soooo eh. Yeah idk just wanted to put a ⚠️disclaimer⚠️ here I guess so that y’all don’t come and bash me because it’s literally music and I just saw an opportunity to yap so I’m doing this 😭🎀 Simply put, this is for funsiesss hope you get a laugh?

⚠️a few more disclaimers; not proofread, I was a bit too invested in this (and crazy), I took the modern AU approach!⚠️ So anyways all of this to finally say; I’m starting with our favorite hot-headed lesbian,

Vi

YOU KNOW she’s screaming from the top of her lungs singing this! Oh and imagine this! rookie Rockstar!Vi covering this song in front of an audience, probably during a school festival or something and the crowd goes crazy. Her beloved girlfriend Caitlin is in the crowd. But do you know who else in the crowd? Right next to Caitlin? Maddie. Violet knows what has been going on during their break, and this is a message directed to her. Maddie was trying hard to seduce Caitlin to get her for herself. But she notices quickly all of this was in vain when her “date” next to her is headbanging and genuinely smiling ear to ear for the first time in her presence. When the song ends, Vi spits cocky: “Get your ass out here. Caitlin’s mine.” Her band roars proudly in response 😎

AND YOU KNOW that Vi switched to she/her pronouns to make Caitlin know that she meant her and only her.

OR, YOU KNOW that Vi and Caitlin went to Paramore’s concert when they performed this song for the last time ever and they were having a blast and making out to this song for sure! ☺️ Vi was fired up and Caitlin loved every second of it.

Viktor

The slowed version because that’s just the typa person Vik is 🙂‍↕️ (pls ignore the image used for the song lmfao) But either way. Hear me out, okay? This was a suggestion from Jayce (so no I’m not at fault here! 🙂‍↔️). And yes, Viktor’s response was just as anyone expected: He raised his brow when he looked back at his lab partner. “You’re kidding?”

Panicky, Jayce flapped his hands to ease Viktor’s annoyance. “I hear this song everywhere and it always makes me think of you…! It’s not what I usually listen to but it gets into your brain before you know it. I genuinely thought you’d like it just a little bit. I mean… won’t you give it a listen?”

“Yeah, wrong guy, Jayce.” Jayce nodded quickly and accepted his fate. “Yeah, okay, I know this was dumb of me.”

Viktor didn’t add a word and continued his research back in his corner. Jayce grimaced, cursing at himself. “I-I’ll leave you to it, then. Text me when you’re home.”

The moment Viktor heard the door shut behind him, he sighed. He tucked his hair strings behind his ear and got back to work.

Much later, he noticed his tension grew bigger. He wasn’t being on task at all. Jayce was right. The short snippet he showed Viktor was already stuck in his head. He tried hard not to succumb to the temptation, trying to prove the air in the room that he wasn’t already a little bit hooked. Whether he’d listen to the full song and like it or not.

He looked at the time and smacked his lips. Jayce might be worried at this exact moment but Viktor felt like he couldn’t leave just now. He “barely made any progress”, he thought. He took a big breath and ran his hands over his hair. “I need a break.” He leaned over the counter to feel more relaxed and grabbed his phone in his pockets to surf the internet. But he had to take a double take when he realized he was in fact on his music app and not on social media. Already tapping the search bar. Viktor furrowed his eyebrows, aggravated by himself.

“Tsk.” He typed the lyrics he understood reluctantly, hoping that was enough for the engine to recognize what he meant. Luckily, it did. He let the song play in the background while he finally did what he intended to do with his phone: Surf the internet. When he was done with his break, he let it play on a loop “unknowingly”. He told himself he was too busy to risk and touch his phone now. That would interrupt his flow, he said.

Needless to say, it didn’t take long until he was swaying his body and snapping his fingers to the beat contently while he continued his research.

(and you KNOWWWWW he’s feeling cvnty the more he listens to the song, Jayce absolutely loves seeing that side of Vik, too!) (Jayce asked him once, “oh so what does it mean?” Vik responded with, “you wouldn’t understand”)

Mel

My woman. Oh how much I love her. Come on, we’ve been knowing she’d listen to lots of Beyoncé. She mostly listens to this when she’s already on a high and it’s physically impossible to hold her back. Usually it’s Elora next to her, sitting on the couch inside the karaoke room, holding her own microphone tight to her chest, absolutely fascinated by the performance she’s witnessing. Elora knows that her best friend can be a bit of a dork sometimes, but it amazes her every time anyways when it happens. But she doesn’t stay starstruck for too long, when Mel pulls her in to join her performance. They both rap Jay-Z’s part together, afterwards exchanging verses, Elora filling on the adlibs, the high notes, while Mel is grinding on her to make them both feel something. Hairs are being swung, physical space is non-existent and laughter filling the room 🥹❤️❤️ ugh I LOVE girls being silly together!!!! (I genuinely love what they have here!!! I love gays girls!!!! I love happy Mel!!!!!)

(oh and imagine Mel in a white y2k outfit that gives BEYONCÉ and her loose hair is POPPING. see how much she’s glowing?)

Ekko

YOU KNOWWWWW Ekko’s a huge fan of Kendrick since FOREVER (and is gobbling up his new album yupyup 🙂‍↕️) and went absolutely feral this summer when this song dropped and cheered when he knew he was on the winner’s side. Ekko is a complete music nerd and will tell you every reference and metaphor of this song alone. Powder asked him ONCE (1) about the rap battle between Kenny and Drake and got info dumped within 0.000000001s :))) She loved it. Hearing him sing makes her want to move her body with him. She knows Ekko isn’t really the type to sing in front of people so when he gets all hyped up and shows this side of him she feels special.

There’s a chance they did a TikTok together too… 🌝 but it might be in the drafts oops

(by now, he fully memorized the whole song 🙂🙂)

Claggor

Yup. Him. The man. I know it’s random but I can’t get him out of my head,, So this is more like a self-indulgent bonus. You’re welcome! xx

BUT IMAGINE! He was sent to make the dishes and he was soooooo not feeling it at first until he bit through it and listened to music to make him feel a bit more motivated. When this started to play he was LOCKED. IN. He did the whole “imagining he’s in an edit” kinda thing, jumping in place, flexing his muscle at literally no one at all, singing some verses aloud because he was so into it. Which he rarely does. Claggor is not a singer. Maybe a shower singer but everyone at home quickly shrugs it off, because honestly, who hasn’t done it before? But imagine his surprise when he sensed someone next to him, slowly handing him a plate.

“Uh—”

Vander pulled a face. “Wanna talk about it?”

Claggor simply shook his head awkwardly.

Ugh 😩 you guys I love him so much??? I hate men but I would let him in my bed (/hj)

no but in all seriousness, I can’t really tell why I chose this song but it just felt right? I imagine Claggor to be this cool, chill guy and genuinely funny to be around

and this song (among many others ofc) just oozes that vibe

[myimaginationplain]

This beautiful piece of fan art by @/stickymaelk on Twitter made my brain start whirling around an Arcane x Soul Eater AU that I'm sure I won't be able to get out of my head for a little while, so here are my fledgling headcanons:

Jayce & Viktor are obviously partners, with Jayce being the meister & Viktor the weapon. Viktor has a very closed-off soul & finds it near impossible to partner with anyone other than Jayce (ala Soul). Jayce has a very large, kinetic soul-wavelength that he can use to attack sans his weapon ala Black☆Star, though he wouldn't necessarily want to. He has an easier time pairing up with other people compared to Viktor, but most other weapons would find his wavelength overwhelming. Jayce grew up in Death City with his mother. They're probably the first of their class to make a Death Scythe. I absolutely see the two of them getting into a Maka-&-Soul-esque dilemma where Jayce develops a complex around needing to protect Viktor at all costs, despite it being the weapon's job to protect their meister. The handle of Viktor's hammer-form takes on the aesthetic qualities of whatever cane he's using at the time.

Caitlyn is the first meister in Kiramman family history (maybe she gets it from Tobias's side?) & her deciding to pursue this path has created a rift between she & Cassandra. Caitlyn & Jayce hit it off during their first week at the DWMA & she was extremely disappointed to find out he wasn't a weapon. Caitlyn goes through her entire first semester without having chosen a weapon before Death Scythe Grayson reccomends she pair up with Vi; the two of them never would have seriously considered the other before, but they work like a charm. Maybe they eventually have a little breakup arc where their partnership dissolves & Caitlyn picks up Maddie as her new weapon, but they can't resonate the same way she & Vi could.

Vi & Powder are kind of a combination of the Thompson sisters & the Nakatsukasa siblings. Like Liz & Patty, they're both modern firearms. But whereas Vi only has one form (a rifle) like Masamune, Powder is a multi-form weapon like Tsubaki; she can turn into a handgun, a canon, a grenade, a time-bomb, etc. Vi lowkey wishes she were a meister so that she & Powder could've been partners, & has a bit of an inferiority complex about not being a good enough weapon. The two of them were taken in & raised by the DWMA along with Ekko. Maybe their parents were all meisters and/or weapons who were killed by witches or something. Powder absolutely gets injected with Black Blood at some point. At some point before either of them had official partners, Jayce & Vi tried to pair up & it was an absolute disaster (their souls are like the immovable object vs the unstoppable force, lol).

Ekko is a meister & Powder's partner. The two of them decided to be a pair before they were even officially enrolled at the DWMA. Ekko has a grigori soul (ala Maka), which helps to counteract Powder's madness post-Black Blood infusion. If they ever formed a team of weapon-meister pairs like Spartoi, then Ekko would definitely be the leader. Powder worries that she's dragging Ekko's as a meister potential down with her.

Mel has a Stein-esque soul, in that she can meister any weapon with ease &, like Jayce, can fight without a weapon (she's more adept & eager to do so than Jayce is). Her most common weapon partner is Elora, & sometimes Sky (I definitely see Sky having Marie's healing wavelength). Maybe Elora is killed in battle (sorry girl) or decommissioned some other way, & Sky becomes Mel's primary weapon after that? The Medarda's are a long, unbroken line of prodigious meisters & weapons, & Mel definitely feels the weight of that legacy. Mel is revealed to be part witch ala Kim.

• Mourning (Alt! Timeline) •

Haven't updated my blog in over a year, huh? Well, arcane season 2 emotionally destroyed me, and even though I have my fair share of issues, I can not stop thinking about episode seven and the alternative timeline. I am not much of a fan that Vi had to die in said AU to bring true unity between Zaun and Piltover (Heimerdinger helped in that too obviously!) due to the fact the writers themselves have said they grew... tired of Vi in season 2, which led to her being so shafted. I can't help but having that statement leave kind of a bad taste in my mouth but anyways, it is a sad reality but we all know Vi would be more than glad to sacrifice her own life if it meant her family and the people of Zaun could truly live as one. Anyways, sorry about my rambling everyone, here's some family comforting one another because I will now ramble about them in this AU!!!

• I think the general sentiment regarding the family is that Vi was the oldest, Claggor one year younger than Vi, Mylo was 2 years younger than Vi, and obviously Powder was the youngest. Which meant after Vi's death, Claggor would most likely be the next one in charge of being the oldest sibling figure and we know that was NOT fun for him at all.

• Claggor definitely felt immense pressure to be like Vi, as in a caretaker and a leader, but we know he's always preferred to be one to support those he loves quietly from the side. Him and Mylo were forced to mature to take care of Powder and Claggor absolutely was the.. better sibling of the two. Doesn't mean the guy didn't feel any less stress and fear that he could lose another one of his loved ones.

• Again, episode 7 kind of established Powder as the new caretaker since Vander said "what would they do without you" but frankly I think it was a few years after Vi's passing that she decided she wanted to help Claggor take care of things and get some weight off his back, allowing him to focus on his own passion project of cultivating the hybrids as he spoke of in the episode.

• Anyways guys I'm super ill about Claggor and the rest of the family if you guys have like any angsty headcanons make sure to let me know because honestly, the drought was so bad for 3 years, now that he's back I feel myself slowly getting consumed!!!

• Extra! (Oc x Canon) •

Mandatory Xalas and Claggor content because of course I need to add Xalss into things, cue "And Bumblebee!" audio LMFAO. Still not too secure about talking about my OC fully in detail bc OCs aren't that popular in fandom spaces and face a lot of harrassment so.. I'll hold off until now. I just want Claggor to have a certain someone he can go let his worries ease, someone to comfort him while he's busy comforting everyone else.

Anywho, sorry for the long analysis and headcanons, I'm probably going to try getting more comfortable speaking about my own thoughts about this dumb found family that has forever rotted my brain for life. Hope you all enjoy some Claggor content, 10 Claggor fans!!!!

Do you have any headcanons for Modern AU Ekko? 👀👀

I do! I envision Modern!Ekko as a STEM major with great interest in robotics and the sciences!

He would probably dorm with Claggor (pulling from the Star Guardian AU with this one because they were best friends ☺️) and occasionally go down to his old neighborhood to do volunteer work.

He wouldn’t be much of a partier tbh, but I feel that he’d be pretty popular in his school due to his looks and his chill, but playful demeanor ✨

Whenever Jinx fought the Firelights she didn't want to hurt Ekko. She especially didn't want to kill him.

Instead, she made a doll of him in his Firelight get-up. She would throw the doll, stomp on it, stab it, or even shoot it to let her anger and frustration out.

Now that they've reconciled and are friends again, she remade the Ekko doll.

His hair is made from thick, white wools of yarn. His hourglass symbol was etched onto a bullet casing for his dreadlock cuff.

She sewed brown buttons for his eyes. She painted his face paint and used a marker for his smile. She drew his symbol on his apron with two blue and pink hearts.

It sits on her bed and she likes snuggling with it at night while she goes to sleep. She also has some polaroids on her dresser where she drew hearts around him.

----

Rock music lightly played on her record player.

Jinx sat on her bed and leaned against the headboard and ate fruit chews. She held the doll up while she admires her handy work.

"You're so cute. It's nice to finally say that to you." Her finger twirled around its hair.

"Although, the real guy is better. His eyes are beautiful. You're just a mini version of him. A mini Ekko...little man..." She gasped softly. "A mini man!" She beamed and then giggled.

"He's really cool. He's so smart and nice to me." She simpered at the thought of her best friend.

"He's also pretty and dreamy and handsome. I want us to be boyfriend-girlfriend type of friends. But he's my friend-friend. So, I can't really tell him all this." She repeatedly tossed the doll in the air and caught it.

"Mylo keeps teasing me, Claggor and Vander hardly say anything," She stopped tossing the doll.

"Silco hates Ekko. He loves me but he thinks I'm wasting my time..." A frown appeared as she stared at her lap.

I made the right choice, right? Coming here. He asked me to stay. He wanted me to.

I was just tired of being alone. I just wanted a friend and I missed him a whole lot.

"Things can be different."

"We won't know if things can turn out better if we don't try,"

That's what he said. Everything's been going great so far. I want to believe him but-

She scoffed softly and shook her head. This wasn't about them now. She was having a little fun before her downer thoughts crept into her brain.

"Sorry about that," She smiled sheepishly. "But anyway, you're nice. You're like the regular Ekko only that you don't talk. Your likeness is almost the same but not quite,"

She cracked a grin and held its stubby arm. "For starters, I can't replicate those biceps. Regular Ekko is a total hunk. I mean,hubba hubba!" She giggled, tossing the toy in the air.

She nearly dropped it when she heard a knock. "Hey, Jinx. You got a minute?"

Ekko.

Her heart wanted to sprout wings and flutter out of her chest. It wanted to meet face-to-face with the person responsible for causing it to feel this way.

Even though it was perfectly fine, she smoothed her hand over her hair. She wanted to make it neat just in case.

"I got hours!" She called. "I gotta go, mini man. The real one is here." She whispered. She adjusted the orange scarf around its neck and then kissed its cheek.

She hid the doll in the closet and then hid the polaroids in her nightstand drawer. She scanned her room to double-check for any missed Ekko-related memorabilia.

If that bomb didn't kill her, the embarrassment of him ever finding out about these things will surely finish her off.

She curtly nodded to herself when everything was cleared then opened the door.

"Got hours?" He chuckled heartily. "I like that. That's really good."

"Hm. Well, when you hang around a loser who has a magic stopwatch and makes time puns then it starts to rub off on ya." She smirked.

Arcane au Pt. 2

☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜☆〜

Minor changes have been made to the au regarding Ekko’s creature!

He is now a griffin (owl base instead of the stereotypical eagle or hawk)

____________________________________________

I have some physical traits I would like to share about their monster anatomy!

For werewolves I see them being typically pretty hairy, even the females!! Of course Vander was already hairy but now its in overdrive and Vi is also growing some hair around the arms. Powder has some fur but not as much as the other two. I also picture their eyes being a lot brighter almost glowing in the dark and people comment on it a lot I see Powder’s blue eyes being the most captivating (yes I know jinx and vi have basically the same eye color) their teeth are almost dog like and when they smile you can see the difference.

For claggor who is a minator he was born that way and yes he has a bull head. I dont see it being a were-like transformation, more like thats how he was formed? Everything about him is basically the same tho

Mylo is also your stereotypical imp with the tail, horns, and claws. He has little wings on his back but they never grew big enough for him to fly at his age.

Ekko is sorta like the werewolves where he has fur on his body but his eyes dont glow like theirs, instead he has feather like hair that I will draw for visuals later!!! I also see him having talons instead of claws (or are those the same thing?)

Caitlyn is also a regular true blooded vampire! Xd

Anyways I might write some more later depending on how I feel

I was pretty upset today and wanted to shed some light on this au again

[claggrot]

where should you be kissed?

knuckles

it feels as though you have fought every day of your life. sometimes, you cannot even tell how much of the blood on your hands is your own... and how much comes from those who've tried to hurt those you defend. you deserve the gentleness of a kiss to your bruised knuckles and broken skin, a reminder that you are not only made of violence.
