as much as i wish ekko could've been interacting more with the main plot and characters i am so glad he got to see the adults who were important to him one last time alive and happy. him getting to hug benzo and thank him for everything wrecked me, esp because we also got reminded that it was his tip about jayce that set off the whole tragedy. like i am just so. devastated about the guilt HE deals with and everything he's tried to build because of it while still basically being a kid himself.

"Shh, you're okay." (For Jinx)
My muse is woken up from a particularly vivid and terrifying nightmare. Send “shh, you’re okay.” to calm and comfort them.
Why exactly Jinx had gone back to the safe house she’d tortured operated on Ekko at she wasn’t entirely sure. Maybe it was whimsy, or maybe she was curious on some level if he’d left anything behind or had returned at some point himself. Regardless she’d ended up on the sofa, and had fallen asleep. Not her smartest idea ever considering Jinx still had every reason as far as she was concerned to believe Ekko, and the Firelights intended to kill her. All the same she could be a creature of whimsy at times, and this was one of those times.
When Ekko showed up she was curled up in a ball whimpering in her sleep with whatever random sheet or towel or other piece of cloth she’d found to cover herself up with kicked off onto the floor. Shoulders tense she was obviously in the grip of some nightmare or another, and a hoarse noise came from her throat as though she couldn’t decide if she wanted to sob or scream or plead. “No….didn’t….didn’t mean…” Voice a soft murmur Jinx was utterly lost in her dreams, and just as utterly helpless. Memories of family Important People she’d murdered, jinxed killed swarming together in her mind taunting her with the fact she’d be forever alone now. Not a single hint of mercy from any of them not even Silco as over, and over scenes of her bombs or minigun going off replayed… and so did the scene of Vi slapping her and walking away. Not the actual memories of course, but exaggerated and worsened ones with people cursing her with their last breath or asking helplessly why she’d done that or any number of other things.
In her dream Vi never stopped hitting her.
Eyes snapping open as Ekko woke her, and tried to comfort her Jinx did what was practically instinctive to her at this point when offered comfort. Lunging forward her arms wrapped around him pulling him close, and simply...hugged him. No bites, no taunting, no pain, nothing. Just a tight, close, surprisingly warm hug and one quickly joined by the feel of wet tears soaking into his shoulder as her own shoulders shook and muffled sobs came from her.
“Sorry...I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to… It was an accident! I...I didn’t mean...please. Please… Sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry!”
No one would ever forgive her, and she didn’t deserve it anyways. She knew that.
Monsters neither received, nor needed forgiveness.
She didn’t want to be alone though.
Body trembling Jinx had obviously been hit hard by her nightmare, and didn’t care at all in that moment that it was Ekko of all people there. In that moment she needed someone, anyone who might offer even the slightest bit of comfort...and he’d been the one.

Well a big issue with Vi, Jinx, and Ekko is that who they are now will never be able to measure up to who they remember each other to be.
Because humans alter their memories the more the revisit them, with the memory warping either into something worse, or something better depending on how you felt about that person. Both as a whole and the last time you saw them.
Vi admits that she hardly did anything in prison beyond think about Powder, but we already know from one of her first conversations with Caitlyn that doing so has warped her memories and perception of Powder.
During the parkour scene where Vi tells Cait that "Her little sister could do this at age 7," when the topside girl is struggling with the jumps and to balance up on high beams.
Even though we the audience all know that Powder would have struggled with a number of those jumps and maneuvers. Because we saw the fact that she struggled to keep up with Vi, Mylo and Claggor on the way to Jayce's apartment. And the jump we see Powder almost fall on, was no where near as complicated or as big as some of the stuff Vi was doing and expecting Caitlyn to follow her on.
Vi can't accept Jinx is who Powder grew up to be, because Vi can't even clearly remember who Powder actually was. Beyond being her small, cute, helpless, little sister who she has to protect, and would never hurt anyone.
Even though Powder's primary interest in building stuff was already centered around bombs. One of which I'm pretty sure was a literal nail bomb if I'm remembering it right. Like little Powder was pretty okay with the idea of maiming her enemies.
Sure they never worked. But that doesn't change the fact that Powder was trying to build weapons with some serious potential to harm people, or even kill them, long before she could have ever been influenced by Silco.
And it's somewhat the same issue with Ekko though to a different degree.
Ekko is still Little Man to Vi, to the point she can't take him seriously when he, who's been in the Underground this whole time, tells her that Jinx is who Powder is now.
Sure he sees it in a, she's a hopeless lost cause, sort of way, and he's definitely romanticized his memories of Powder just like how Vi has, but definitely not to the extent that Vi has.
And he tends to view Jinx and Powder as different people as a way of emotionally distance himself from her in order to be able to face her in battle.
Which is fine. We see that Jinx is fully willing and able to kill any Firelight that gets in her way, and Ekko was actively opposing SIlco. Being unable to bring himself to face her seriously on the battlefield would have gotten him killed.
And on the bridge it very nearly does.
Getting a glimpse of Powder in Jinx's face on the bridge nearly lands him in just as worse of a state as Jinx. And Jinx only survives due to a shitton of Shimmer and luck.
And it's the same with Jinx about her memories of Vi.
Over the years aspects of Vi's personality had gotten magnified in Jinx's memories of her.
And unlike Ekko or Vi's memories of who Powder used to be, where they tend to just outright ignore or forget about whatever negative traits she might have had, because she was literally just too weak to actually manage to harm someone else, a good number of those traits weren't all sunshine and roses.
No matter how much she loved, and still loves, Vi, Jinx's last memory of Vi before they're separated is getting screamed at, called a jinx, being slapped, and then abandoned by her. And those actions definitely tempered Jinx's generally rose tinted memories of Vi.
This isn't even bringing in the fact that before Vi's big talk with Vander at the bridge just before she tried to turn herself over to the enforcers.
Vi was a budding revolutionary.
Vi wanted to fight topside.
In the same physical way she fights every other opponent.
And that's who she was the majority of the time Powder knew her.
She didn't make the heal turn of the price of revolution isn't worth it, until literally like the day their family situation went to hell.
And Powder definitely didn't even know that Vi had had that change of heart. She didn't even know that Vi had tried to hand herself over to the enforcers to take the fall for the explosion.
So I don't know why people always act like Jinx is misremembering who Vi was when she was completely bewildered by Vi working with an enforcer, because as far as Jinx remembers, Vi hated the enforcers just as much as the rest of the Underground, and possibly more.
Tumblr media
She still doesn't get it. She just doesn't get it!
Vi. Sweetheart. Bruiser with a head as thick as her fists. Your sister is not "gone." Your sister grew up. And, as all people do when they grow up, she changed. This is something she told you when you first reunited with her:
"Things changed when you left. I changed."
Of course, you dismissed her, saying she just did what she had to in order to survive. Which, yes, but also no. Six years passed between when you were taken from her and when you saw her next, and those were her formative years. Formative, meaning forming who she is as a person, a growing and grown person, because time moves ever forward and no one stays a little girl forever.
Now, does this mean you have to like the person your sister changed into? No. Certainly, your sister doesn't like you putting on an enforcer uniform to help oppress the people of Zaun so you can live a cushy life in Piltover with your new girlfriend. But she still IS your sister. Yes, she changed her name to one that lets her reclaim something traumatic from her past. Yes, she's decided to fully move on and look toward the future now. But her past is still part of her. She doesn't have dissociative identity disorder. "Powder" and "Jinx" were never two separate people. She's the same person, and always has been. She was only ever torn between trying to go back to her past life with you, or accepting her present and future — and she has chosen the latter.
But she is still, and always will be, your sister. Something she knows ("Finally got the name right, sister"), even if you, for some reason, have a very hard time understanding this very simple concept.
Get it together.

Hello, I was wondering if you could do headcannons for a silco x female reader (romantic), where she is Vi and Jinx's older sister (20 y/o) and went with jinx when vander died and believes that Vi abandoned them, and her and silco are like Jinx's main parental figures.
Thank you and have a good day!
You becoming parent's to Jinx w/Silco + extra drabbles
Note: ya'll blew up my inbox with Silco and I love it
Reader: female
Arcane Masterlist ♤♤ "Here's the Dump"
Tumblr media
You usually take the blame for everything for your sisters
Nah no one touches my sisters
But of course Vi likes to argue, saying that its your fault your parents are dead, because you left to try and make a better name for the family outside of Piltover and the Lanes
You stormed out in anger not wanting to esclate things with powder begging you to stay; you said you'd come back for her
Did come back for her but just a bit too late.
Found you near Vander, with a large shard of glass in your calf.
Powder ran into your arm so quickly, crying her eyes out
Vi only contuined to argue blaming you once again, Powder tried standing up to her, resulting in her getting slapped.
Angred you pulled the shard from your calf and threatened Vi with it holding it to her neck.
Tried to reason with her as well though.
"I did everything trying to help you two. To help our whole family"
Passing out from blood loss.
Vi leaving still
Powder begging for help and for Vi not to leave
Silco comes in, Powder crying into your barely rising chest, begging you to come back.
He helped both you and Powder now Jinx
Waking up in a bed and like: bitch Im t r i p p i n:
Meeting Drabble: With a groan Y/n woke up, trying to sit up.
"You'll be light headed," a voice spoke, "don't try and get up."
"P. Powder..." she called, trying to get out of bed but someone grabbed her arm.
"Lay down,"
Her eyes finally came into focus, and glared up at him, "do whatever you want to me just leave her alone."
Silco forced her onto the bed causing her to wince, "then go back to sleep."
Laid down but didnt go back to sleep
Eventually helped to sit up and brought food.
It was hard trusting any of them but then Powder rushed in you went fuck food and held her close.
Offered to stay and work for Silco, by the man himself
Yeah it went a totally diffrent way within like two weeks: there he was, putting you on his desk, ya'll making out.
Accepting of Jinx, and her chaos
He asking you to put injections into his eye even though you kinda hate it: seems painful
It was pretty early on you told Jinx that you and Silco ended up becoming a thing.
She was pretty happy for you actually, and made you both matching mugs.
She was pretty attached to the idea of you two being her parents.
As she got older she learned how to do more things, and made breakfast for both of you
"Is this ceral? Where did you get this?" "Oh! You know! I stole it! Didn't know how to cook it exactly." "Its wonderful thank you"
Both of you with eat burnt ceral to make her happy
Please hold them both together, like on the couch heads resting on your shoulder while you read
Good night kisses for Jinx 110%
Good night kisses for Silco too
Working with Sevika
Calming Jinx down turning her flashes of the past
"I've got you! I've got you! Jinx! Look at me!"
Pressing her forhead to yours helps her calm down
Holding Silco back from going to her when she needs to take a breath, "Let her breath."
You usually end up putting most before you, so Silco treats you once an a while even if its just a new book you've been eyeing
Took up sketching/drawing, you have pages filled with just him sitting at his desk and him smoking
He figures out your drawing him:
Y/n was silent, sat on the chair infront of Silco's desk he was busy doing paper work.
She lifted up the fancy pen Jinx had snatched for her while top side, using it as a sort of reference for proportions.
"Are you going to stab me with that pen?" Silco spoke drinking from the glass of brandy infront of him.
"Want me too?" Y/n questioned dropping her arm tilting her head with a small smile.
He held out a hand as she sighed handing over the hand made book.
"Don't smudge it." Y/n protested.
Silco set the book down on his papers, bringing his glass back to his lips taking another drink, he skimming through it. It must've been a family thing, both her and Jinx drew like crazy.
"Impressed?" Y/n spoke with a teasing smile the pen loosely swinging in her fingers.
"It's a family trait." Silco spoke.
"A common intrest." Y/n corrected softly, "unless you want to tell me your a secret artist and make it a family trait."
He stiffled a laugh, leaning back in his chair
"Imagine it now." Y/n teased, "the all mighty Silco shimmer dealer and industrialist, sits infront of a blank canvas wondering what will be carved out of the paints still in there tubes."
"You a writer too now?" Silco questioned Y/n smiling.
"The adventures of a gangster family. Nice title huh?" Y/n questioned, standing up from her seat and leaning over his desk, hands planted on the edge, "or...maybe something more...personal?"
On impulse he leaned forward she smiling but the door bursted open.
"Oh Y/n! It's me and you time!" Jinx cheered as Y/n chuckled.
"The next chapter later today then I suppose." Y/n teased pecking Silco on the lips and walking off to join a Hyper Jinx.
He loves seeing you with Jinx, especially if the young woman falls asleep in your arms you reading book peacefully
He often finds you gone from bed, just to find you in Jinx's room, barely able to keep awake as the girl sleeps in her arms.
If you fall asleep on the couch, Jinx will wait till you either wake up or Silco come gets you
Big titty identity crisis wine mom
Can drink Silco under the table
Family Chaos time atleast once a week
"Ha! 21 I win!" "We're playing monopoly" "wait we're not playing Yathzee?"
Y/n on the phone: no. I don't care! Just break there knee caps!
Y/n putting the phone down and looking back at Silco: so you say Jinx blew up a building
Figuring out how to cook and going to Pilltovee to steal actual ingredients: ta dah! Family meal time!
Surprisingly a decent cook
Taking care of Jinx and Silco when there sick, Jinx loves it but Silco hates it.
If your sick you just try and stick through it to the point of passing out
Jinx won't leave your side, culred up on a chair trying to read one of your books, she doesnt understand much of it
Silco often checks in on you if sick, and gets roped into silently reading with Jinx in his lap.
Honestly a wholesome yet dysfunctional family but you all love each other and are willing to do anything for each other.

@sweatandwoe​
wheezes softly okay so monstery silco au thoughts 
idk if i have a name for this au or not yet but i have a lot of loose scrambled ideas and Vibes and various atmospheric scenes floating in my head
ive no idea if any of this is quality and all i know about league lore is what i can glean from wikis and one very enthustiastic infodumping friend
i also just, really like subtle monster shit. this person is a monster but oh, they could so easily be human.
ahhh this is all just very. slapped togethor thoughts its not super coherent apologies
so bare with me
im rly fascinated with tahm kench and i know im not the only one and i see a Lot of ppl who like to associate him with silco in some way- wether silco worships him, made a deal with him, whatever, a lot ppl seem to like playing with the idea and theyre valid
to my understanding tahm kench isnt exactly limited in what he can appear as- of course theres the squat and charming catfishalligator man in his jaunty little hat but to my understanding he can take on other appareances? idk i recall reading this but i cant recall where to save my life so like for the sake of this au we’ll just assume he Can appear human if he wants to 
we also know like nothing about silco’s childhood etc so im playing fast and loose
im never sure if im of the opinion that silco had shit parents or parents who tried their best but honestly its likely a little of column a a little of column b and im rambling too much and need to get to the point
in the context of this au sil’s mom had a mysterious but charming paramour who often made her promises of wealth and good fortune and one day he just sort of vanished from her life but not without leaving her pregnant
she successfully passed off the baby as her husband's by the sheer fortune that said baby seemed to resemble her and not her paramour in the least
paramour was, obvs a this point, tahm kench
my reasoning why for he did this in the first place is mostly that hes just fucking around for shiggles- theres other reasons but im a bit scatterbrained at the moment and words to explain are not coming to me so great
silco is largely the same as he is in canon- he’s not visibly inhuman in any way, and he doesnt act much different at all. though, i suppose, in the right light, teeth can look unnaturally sharp, eyes too solidly dark like nothing human should have, etc
but he’s prone to disassociative states and cravings for Meat ideally Very Fresh and Possibly Alive Meat and they’re worse when he’s in compromised emotional or physical states
his father left/died/whatever early on leaving him largely in the care of just his mother and while she did her best rumors inevitably spread of her weirdass half feral kid, his ill temper, his strange disposition, and the massive amount of meat he seems to require
stories that he was slowly eating her out of house and home
stories that he wouldnt stop even if the only flesh she had to provide was her own
eventually, she too was gone
i dont think sil actually hurt her or attacked her in any way, but one day it was just silco, alone, with no one else, and the rumor mill churns and youve got stories about some scrawny monster that killed and ate his own mother
he and vander do end up friends as in canon, i dont doubt b/c vander took pity on this weird guy with a bad, bad reputation but a relatively skittish (if bitey, hah) personality 
like i said a lot of this au is just sort of various scenes playing out in my head- sil ends up attacking people occasionally and its a bloody fucking mess every time
hes a conniving, sneaky little schemer and any outright deals anyone makes with him always seem to fall in his favour
he has his skills, and he’s useful, and in his own way he’s a loving and devoted friend
he is still the deeply driven revolutionary we have in canon- he loves his home and his people but he’s harsh and not afraid to spill blood
the drowning incident occurs more or less the same but vander comes out of it with a lot more than just his arm wound- silco bites, and as it turns out under life or death circumstances he can be a lot less human than he’s always seemed
i dont think he knows he’s tahm kench’s offspring until the drowning incident, having some kind of “conversation” hallucination with the river king while under and learning of his parentage
ironically the shimmer he takes for his eye is a blessing- shimmer works as an appetite suppressant and as he gets older there are way, way less incidents
jinx knows her dad is weird and so does everyone working under him but for the most part its not a problem, yes the boss is fucking scary they all know this its nothing new
i think shit gets Real odd tho post-death
im not sure silco can be properly killed, not in a way that sticks right
his body gets dumped in the river and that should be the end of it, but i think perhaps there are strange sightings for years to come, mysterious disappearances of people who wander the shores alone
im playing with this ball of idea clay and having great fun with it, others can play too if they wanna

Please we need more vanco and silco breastfeeding powder it was sooooo good
Glad you enjoyed the first bit! Here’s more.
I’m not going to apologise for the plot this thing is threatening to grow. I wanted to write another scene again but I realized I won’t get it done by this weekend (where I’m going to a convention) and that you would probably prefer this one now and I can always write that one when I get back.
Tags: omegaverse, breastfeeding
-----------------
Silco’s heat had finished and the omega had thankfully agreed they could keep the two girls Vander had brought home.
Not that Vander really doubted that Silco would decide that by the time his heat had finished. The omega’s nest having been rearranged for the pups and Vander refused entry lest he frighten them. Silco even letting Powder nurse whenever the littler of the two started to fuss. His heat-sweet scent turning to a more steady maternal one that somehow had just as much of an effect on Vander. Making him want to keep them all safe and see if Silco might be agreeable to having a third pup to add to the mix in 9 months’ time.
Still they weren’t going to abandon their cause of freeing Zaun. So once the girls were settled in bed they crowded around the small dining table of their apartment with Benzo to figure out what to do next.
“Things have calmed down slightly,” Benzo says, shoving another of the deep-fried tentacle bites Vander had made into his mouth. “I mean there are still enforcers crawling all over the place, but they seem to be a bit less shoot first, ask questions never. Still fucking arresting people on any excuse they can get though.”
“That’s not really better than,” Silco says, tugging the plate closer to himself.
Benzo shrugs.
“Better Stillwater than dead.”
Silco snorts at it but whatever snappy response he has apparently gets forgotten when Benzo reaches for the plate again. Silco slapping his hand away and moving it closer to him.
“Forgotten how to share Silco?” Benzo asks. He would know the behavior can’t be because of lack of food. The three of them now in the position to always have enough to go around even with Vander and Silco adopting two pups.
“Hardly,” Silco says, shoving one of the bites into his mouth, “I’m just eating for two now.”
Benzo chokes at it, his eyes going wide.
“He’s talking about Powder,” Vander says before Benzo gets any ideas of Silco’s heat having resulted in a pregnancy.
Silco’s not pregnant but it seems him nursing Powder to keep her calm had caused his milk to come in proper. His breasts not shrinking back down like they normally did once his heat was done and the watery mixture that normally filled them had turned to proper milk to feed the pup.
It takes a minute for the confusion on Benzo’s face to settle.
“That’s the little one you took in isn’t it?” Benzo asks. “Ain’t she a bit old to need feeding like that?”
“Most effective way to stop her from crying,” Silco says.
“If you say so,” Benzo says, shaking his head. “Still crazy to think you two have two pups now.”
“It is.” For all that Vander had been thinking of having pups with Silco ever since they’d been mates he still struggled to actually believe there were now two pups in the house that they are responsible for.
“They are lucky to have you,” Benzo says with a nod. “But there’s business I want to talk to you about.”
A sharp cry cuts through their conversation. The younger girl apparently awake and her sister no doubt is as well now.
“Sil, you wanna’ get them?” Vander would do it himself but leaving Silco and Benzo alone even for a minute was a recipe for an argument.
“Fine,” Silco says. Don’t let him eat all the food.”
“You’re not meant to let a guest go hungry,” Benzo says.
“I wouldn’t exactly call you a guest,” Vander points out. Considering until fairly recently Benzo had been living with them.
“Fair enough,” Benzo says with a shrug, pulling the plate back in front of him.
Silco returns with Powder sobbing in his arms, Vi at his side. The older pup taking the last free chair at the table as Silco returns to his own. The omega’s eyes immediately landing on the plate of food. He doesn’t say anything but drags it over to be in front of Vi causing Benzo to snort.
“Who’d think you’d have such strong maternal instincts,” Benzo says.
“What is it you wanted to talk about?” Silco asks instead of responding, helping Powder settle into his lap better. She only stops crying when he tugs up his shirt to let her nurse, the tears drying up almost immediately as she starts to feed.
Benzo’s eyes go wide again but he apparently decides not to say anything, probably from the glare Silco shoots him.
“There’s apparently an enforcer looking for you both.”
“There’s always enforcers looking for us.” They had put targets on their backs by deciding to stand up for Zaun against the Upper City.
“Not like this – word is she’s got on an especially fancy uniform and the others all seem to be following her orders now.”
“It’ll be Grayson,” Silco says, because he’s made it his business to know all the main players on Piltover’s side. “She’s probably going to be the bastards’ next Sheriff.”
“Maybe she’s already their new Sheriff,” Benzo says. “Apparently she’s looking to negotiate.”
“That sounds like a trap,” Silco says, running his hand through Powder’s hair as she nurses. Her sister is watching the conversation with a straight back and serious expression but Powder doesn’t seem to care so long as she’s got Silco’s breast in her mouth.
“Maybe,” Vander says, forcing himself to tear his eyes off watching his mate to look at Benzo. “You said the enforcers have stopped killing people?”
“Stopped looking for reasons to at least,” Benzo says.
“You are not seriously thinking about agreeing to meet with her?” Silco snaps before hissing sharply.
“You alright?” Benzo asks as Silco pries Powder off his breast.
“Yeah, she just bit down,” Silco says, sitting Powder up on his lap facing him.
“She wouldn’t have meant to,” Vi says in defense of her sister who Silco is now glaring down at.
“I think she did. She doesn’t seem to like you getting worked up Sil.” Probably turns your milk as sour as your scent does, Vander doesn’t add because he doesn’t want to be kicked out of the nest he was only just allowed back in. The second bedroom no longer an option now it’s become the girls’ room.
Silco huffs at it, before tapping the girl on the nose causing her to blink.
“You do that again and there will be no more milk for you, understand?”
The girl stares up at Silco with watery eyes, reaching out for his chest and Silco sighs.
“You’re the one that’ll miss out if I dry up,” Silco says letting her fall forward into him before adjusting her so she can latch on again. “As I was saying-“
“We should at least hear her out,” Vander says. “If she’s getting the enforcers to stay there hand then maybe she does want to negotiate.”
They can’t just keep fighting. Piltover is better resourced than them and has already created too many orphans like Vi and Powder. At some point they have to be able to show something for their fighting and maybe this is their chance, maybe they have made enough of a problem for the Upper City that they can actually negotiate a better life for their people. A better life for their families and children.
“And what if it is a trap?” Silco asks, hand curled protectively around Powder as she nurses from him. A pup who has already been made an orphan once in her short life.
“Then the enforcers can find themselves another new Sheriff.” Vander has no plans on causing the girls to become orphans again.

Caitlyn had no idea where she was. The last thing she remembered was...was falling to the ground in front of Jinx. Now she found herself in the middle of the river Pilt, somehow, but though she was laying on her back, bodied in pain and burdened yet the water didn't swallow her, the colors of the world seemed to have died down and that insistent noise of steps refused to allow her to rest. And so she stood on the water and tried looking for the source, noticing the people approaching, she had a sudden realization.
So that was it huh? She died...and this was hell.
It was strange seeing Grayson after such a long time, she held the sheriff in high regard once, and often thought what she would do in a situation whenever she had a tough time figuring it out. On the other hand, learning from Vi that she had associated with Vander came as a blow, not for the partnership itself, but because if she knew cooperation was the best way to keep the peace...why had she never taught her that? Still, her heart tightned at the dissaprovement in her expressions.
Of the second man she held no love, Marcus was not an evil man, not in her eyes. No, he was just a pathetic one. Someone who presented himself as kind only to act out of cowardice and spite. His dissaproval might even cause her some satisfaction, if the words weren't true enough to cut deep, and despite anger rising in her veins, she found her hands and legs unable to move as if restrained. And each time he touched her--
"Who...do you both think you are? To judge ME?" Unable to move, she resorted to talking back, though it seem to have little effect on the two of them. They ignored her and kept talking, as if she was...as if she was talking to ghosts. "Being the Sheriff? What have I accomplished as one in all my time? What have either of you?! Perpetuating a system that crushes the weak? Slaps on the wrists for politics and important people, while hurting the needy? I've done more in two years alone than either of you did in your entire hypocritical lives! Hell, I've saved more people by sleeping with Jinx by playing coy with Vander or letting Silco use my as a bloody used Rag--"
Once more he touched her, and the anger and pain rose once more, she felt herself struggling to punch him in the face...until she saw the fire behind them...a fire coming from the city, her city, and as it slowly became engulfed in flames, she heard and saw where the screams were coming from.
"Mom...?" Her voice was barely a whisper.
"MOM! MOM I'M COMING!" She tried moving once more, but nothing happened, this time Grayson and Marcus were holding her arms...them and hundreds of ghosts, wailing and coming from the River, keeping her there as the screams got louder and the fire got close. "MOM! PLEASE! I'M COMING! MOOOOOOOM!"
The fire engulfed her like an explosion, every inch of her body felt like it was on fire, and the wailing was so loud it was deafening, now joined by her own screams of pain as she still tried to have to have the ghosts free her. Slowly, even as her flesh burnt, she felt them giving way, she had to get to her mom and--
Tumblr media
She woke up screaming like a roaring beast, the restraints of her legs and right arm breaking, and as she suddenly tossed and turned she fell with the table, spilling the nearby's trays tools on her. She was still burning, gasping greedily for air, she had to look for--
"J-jinx?..." Her eyes were blooshot with a tinge of purple on the iris and they had trouble sticking to one place to look, instead darting around to try and piece the situation. She felt somehow better, but also much MUCH worse than ever before, though she couldn't feel that lack of energy from bleeding, that blasted sense of burning was still present. Though she'd realize it might have been a dream, the pain and suffering she felt, were quite real.
"What...what happened?" Her heartbeat felt like a drum in her head, different from the constant sound of the footsteps she heard before. Whatever happened...at least she was out of hell.

I am so sick and tired of the Silco/Jinx glorifiers that say Vi does not love her sister.
I dislike how Vi is perceived as holding onto Powder and not loving Jinx. Did you guys forget that before Vi got KIDNAPPED BY MARCUS (since there is a lot of people thinking that Vi literally abandoned Powder), she slapped Powder out of anger because her entire family died by her and the only reason why she left Powder is to cool down to not hurt her anymore. She also called Powder a Jinx, something that fucks up everything and can’t ever do anything right. She knew this was wrong but said it out of anger because I don’t know... her entire family died and she is a child trying to cope with all of this in a span of seconds?
Its been shown throughout the show how regretful Vi feels about calling her sister a Jinx. She knew it was wrong and it haunts her. That is why she never refers to her sister with her Jinx alias. To her, she is Powder because she is her sister. By calling her Jinx, Vi feels as if this is just furthering the idea that her identity is to be a Jinx - to fuck everything up and never do anything right. 
I strongly believe Vi is capable of loving Jinx. Even though she is different, who cares? Jinx has trauma, hallucinations, guilt, self doubt, insecurities, who cares? Vi has shown that she loves her and she wants to fix their relationship. Vi even said that the only reason why she survived prison was so she can be reunited with her.
“But Vi only wants Powder back, she doesn’t want Jinx. Silco accepts Jinx and loves her.” 
Silco’s and Jinx’ s relationship is absolutely harmful. Silco does love Jinx and he does care for her but let’s not ignore the fact that he perpetuates her insecurities, demons, and doubt. He manipulates her to be co-dependent on him and enables her to do whatever she wants. Blow up a building in Piltover? The only thing she got was being scolded at. He never teaches her what is right or wrong, he only lets her do whatever she wants because he sees himself in her. The only reason why he even took her in was because of their sibling trauma. They both got “betrayed” by their sibling and Silco sees himself in her - which is why he isolates her from Vi and wants Vi dead. If she goes back to Vi, she may revert back to Powder, who he wants dead. He even gave her a baptism in the water and wants Jinx to let Powder die. 
You can’t say Vi only wants Powder without mentioning that Silco only wants Jinx. Vi can love Jinx, Silco can’t love Powder. 
Vi can love Jinx’s trauma, insecurities, and doubts. Silco can’t love Powder’s past, her love for her sister, and her weakness. 
Silco enabled her to do whatever she wants, even if it means killing people and blowing buildings up. Why should it matter to him? He involves her in his crimes. Vi would never enable her. Vi wants the best for her. 
Silco isolates Jinx from everyone because he only wants her to be his. 
“Everyone betrays us Jinx. Vander, her.”
“All Silco has known all his life is strength and the cruel ways of Zaun! His love may be toxic but he tried his best!”
And that is the reason why Jinx is so fucked up. 
"Silco has been there for Jinx!”
It’s almost like Vi has been in prison for the entire time after the factory incident and Silco took her in? Do you want Vi to write weekly letters to her or something?
“Silco loves Jinx more than Vi.”
Of course he would love Jinx. He nurtured her into what she is right now. Vi may have created Jinx but Silco nurtured her. 
“Don’t cry. You’re perfect.”
This line may seem loving and good. But only to Silco. This line just furthers the nail in the coffin for Powder’s casket. Silco only wants her Jinx side - violent, destructive, unpredictable, and lonely. 
Let’s also not forgot that Vi has been in prison the entire time and there was no actual way for her to know what is going on outside of the prison. 
We can love how complex Silco/Jinx’s relationship is but let’s not romanticize it. That relationship is extremely harmful even if it meant well. Silco can love Jinx but he can’t love Powder.
