JAYCES HAND CUPPING VIKTORS NECK OH MY GOD I NEED TO DIE

[iicaru2]

you ever think about how, had vi known about the parallel universe where powder never became jinx and her family survived and zaun had clean air and her little sister got to do kid things like dancing with her boyfriend at a party, she would have chosen to die without a second thought just so that could’ve happened

[renni-yu]

*FANTASTIC BLARES* Cait R @ Vi's lips MUAH

[con-ked]

All of arcane has just been telling us in increasingly specific detail what Jayce's type is:

Badasses with black cat energy

Smarter than him

Physically connected to the arcane

With metal body parts (grew up in the forge he can appreciate the robussy)

Who get trapped in a weird magical plane of existence

Wearing a flowy white hooded robe at some point

Mages

LITERAL GODS

[iiotic]

Viktor the man you are.

[ramblesbiab]

I don't think any single frame of television has effected me like the absolute desire on Vi's face when Caitlyn steps back

She already knew she didn't fucking care before Cait even got a word out, she just needed to keep going. like wow I'm going feral now ig

Time to bring back this old tweet from one of the Arcane writers.

ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: ↳ "So was I. I was angry, just like you. I led us across this bridge, thinking things could change. If I hadn't… your parents would still be alive. I know you wanna hurt the topsiders for what they've done to us. But who are you willing to lose? Mylo? Claggor? Powder? Nobody wins in war, Vi."

So like. Did anyone else notice that Jayce doesn't immediately shoot Viktor? He only powers his hammer on AFTER Viktor has opened his eyes. Below is Jayce's reaction to seeing Viktor (his Viktor, from his universe, not the future version of him) for the first time after walking into the dome. For the first time in months. That's like. A look of wonder. Almost reverence.

Assuming the Jinx/Rictus/Vander fight is cut to real-time after Jayce has gone into the dome, he's staring at Viktor for like. 5 minutes.

My interpretation here, of Jayce's expression just before Viktor finally opens his eyes to see Jayce in the room with him, he's committing Viktor to memory, before he has to kill him.

Edit: I almost missed it but like. HE IS SMILING For like 2 frames it's an outright smile. He leans in towards him, too. I cannot handle this.

[explosionshark]

What's so insanely hot about the Caitlyn/Ambessa/Mel fight scene is precisely the fact that Caitlyn is seriously wounded and KNOWS she can't win and does proceed to get very badly smacked the fuck down repeatedly but DOESN'T stop trying and to me there's just nothing sexier than that specific brand of frenzied, rabid desperate determination.

It's a character moment too bc it's the kind of thing you'd expect from Vi who's a brawler and whose entire fighting style factors in getting hit. Caitlyn's always been long range and strategic, to see her get desperate enough to just throw herself into the grinder again and again was profound. She KNOWS she can't win bc she couldn't beat Ambessa on a good day but she JUST needs to buy time and create openings and she's paying for that in blood and viscera and eyeballs

Extremely cool scene, I love watching my faves backed into a corner and going absolutely recklessly feral over it

Also just the fact that this entire brutal, plot-pivotal fight scene was between three women fuckin absolutely ruled. Hell yeah

[inoghmia]

Please tell me y’all get what I’m referring to cause I fucking lost or

(Not hate to the op)
