#i believe Anders from DA2 did nothing wrong since 2011

ok so i get the sentiment of “your imperfections make you who you are” and i did cry like a beluga whale while watching the final jayvik scene but hear me out

while the sentiment totally works if we speak about viktor’s leg, self-esteem or his zaunit origin which society see as imperfections (when in reality it’s the world around viktor that is imperfect and should change, not him), this line angers me when i think about viktor’s terminal illness that was killing him at the age of what? 30? 35?

i haven’t rewatched s1 yet but it seemed that viktor didn’t turn to hextech in the sense of altering human nature before his illness got worse. i imagine a universe where he managed to treat this desease at early stages and is now using hextech to build tools, maybe robots and other cool stuff to make the world more accessible and safe for people, especially those less privileged. no cult or glorious evolution needed. and i believe it would be possible if he wasn’t so alone in this.

he didn’t cross the line because he couldn’t walk without a crutch or because people looked down on him in piltover. for me it was because he was fucking dying and so so tired. he fought alone for so long that the fragility and duality of human nature started to seem like a weakness to him. so anyway. i appreciate jayce finally seeing that viktor is wonderful, perfects, his soulmate and he should have never left him and he should have cared more but i also would like viktor to reply like ok, jayce, apocalypse cancelled let’s hold hands and butterfly out of existence. but when we are just two astral entities in the middle of everywhere you’ll have do your homework and learn about the inequity and what it does to a person.
