Pregnancies theory - Have their cake and eat it too

Best guess at where Millie's plots going

We know Millie past is going to be explored more in season 3.

And it very likely that part of it'll be Millie's half exes and oohs back story, her history with Chaz.

We didn't really get anything about how Millie and Chaz split, or what the relationship was like.

But the hints we've gotten make it seem like a very bad time for Millie.

Chaz is dead, making it unlikely he'll prompt the story himself (zombie 👻).

Logical that means it'll tie into Millie's current plot,

So past relationship trauma tyeing into Millie's current pregnancy chose..

A previous pregnancy seems a possibility right?

But ok let's look at what we what knows from Blitz's interview of Millie.

That's got to a be maybe a few weeks after her break up.

And straight after she got sacked.

Because Millie was employed when she nabbed the job out from Blitz and Moxxie.

And she did well enough to impress straight off.

So she wasn't sacked for something she did, as Blitz is confused anyone would let her go.

She says getting jobs and keeping them comes down reputation. And Blitz asking what Millie's rep is like now prompts her go into a rage.

So Chaz did something that'd made her seem unreliable to her former employer. Like something that would need her to take time off?

The underpaid goon work doesn't seem to come with a lot of benefits, or employment rights.

And Chaz is definitely the sort of scumbag dump Millie for a shit reason, like an unplanned pregnancy.

Leaving her feeling trapped in a situation, that even year's later makes her hulk out.

It's also feels a bit similar to how Chaz leaves Moxxie trapped and alone, to take the heat.

Edit adding these bits, cus it telling what made he rage was Chaz saying he financially secure with a the bright future, before inevitably trying to hookup with her again. (Not sure if would have checked if he had a kid knocking about to scupper the deal with Crim. Or if he'd have enough of fuckboy to not even ask).

Mills is drinking a beer when Blitz walks in, so unlikely to still be pregnant.

Without a job or support; she'd have really struggled to feed and look after a kid. Pregnancy would have undoubtedly ruined any chance of getting a good job.

There's very few examples in American media of abortions.

This is could look at the reasons a young single woman, who just lost her manual labour job, would want an abortion. It could do alot of good.

Media likes to pretend practicalities of just not making enough money to make a pregnancy a workable thing don't exist.

There are thousands of good reasons to have an abortion, and with the show being indy and set it hell; they can go there. (Restrictive religious media monopolies can go do one)!

But why I'm I betting on previous abortion; and then her keep it this time?

3 Reasons

Easy out of universe plot savvy reasons

Think that if they weren't going to have Millie decided to keep it, it would be set up to stay more private than it's gonna.

Millie left the test box in Blitz and Loona's bathroom bin.

Blitz is honestly the only one living there who I buy does the cleaning. (Loona's Blitz's kid who he spoils. Stolas wouldn't know how to clean).

Blitz is a very protective dad, who's going flip his lid if he thinks he's little girl is pregnant.

He's not going to keep this quiet, which means Millie's got no hope in hell of the whole of IMP not knowing.

As her boss, if anyone can tell her that they can make adjustments it's Blitz.

2. In universe support (backed up with some narrative reasons)

Millie has a similar mindset Blitz, that her only value is what she can do, especially for others. It's something she pins a lot of herself worth on.

Pregnancy would challenge this idea, cus she'd have to physical do less. (And helluva like to show previous trauma being overcome).

But Millie's situation has changed a bit since Chaz. Even if she in her panic hasn't really realized that yet.

She's got a supportive husband.

A better paying job, with alot more security that's doing well now.

And a boss that would be very willing to adapt to keep her.

They've got more resources they can ask for help, like knowing Stolas. Another parent, who's good with babies, and can empathize not feeling ready to have a kid.

Cus Stolas was a teen dad, and Millie's only 1 year into her marriage. (Narratively it'd be a good way for Millie and Stolas to bond).

And Blitz while he hasn't had parenting experience with babies, he's is an ex children's performer for years. So he is just pretty good with kids.

Stolitz would definitely babysit if Millie keeps it lol.

IMP's a small family business, they can be alot more flexible with childcare. And even have the kid staying in the office after she's back from her maternity leave.

It used to be really common for smaller families businesses to let parents bring their kids in, till they were old enough for preschool. Because there's always someone around, and well the kid's family. 🤷

(I was brought up like this. And just taken to whichever factories my Mum or Nanna worked at. A cot was set in the break room for any babies who need it. Because how else are working women ment to manage. It's basically unimaginably with Amazon isn't it).

And if Blitz and Stolas' don't go gaga over a sprog to play with I'll be amazed.

We also know Sallie May going to have bigger part going falwards, and Millie pointed out Sal can rely on over people more, to be able to take more time off.

So it is possible Sallie May could help cover her sister's maternally leave.

3. Foreshadowing and Menis

Moxxie loves kids but he's got alot to learn. And with how helluva does foreshadowing, it's likely he's going to get the chance to be a dad to screw up lol.

Seriously pretty sure Moxxie is going a very steep learning curve.

At least Millie has younger siblings that she appears to have had to look after, so it won't all be new to her.

(Even if parentifcation give a lot weird blind spots).

But ok the menis bit dun dun dun! Kidnapping

We know Crimson is after revenge on Moxxie and Millie, for different reasons.

He hates Millie because she murdered all his guys easily; and she's *gasp* a dame. How dare a woman show him up like that!

And Crimson has a life long hate and disappointment of Moxxie, for not being the macho man he wanted as an aire to inherit the totally legit business.

M&M's tot could seem like the perfect do over baby for him to mode into the perfect mafia don.

I'd kinda laugh my head off if Crim goes to all the effort to trying to kidnap the sprog, gets his arse handed to him by the whole of IMP, plus Millie's family; all for the baby to be a girly.🤭

I used @warblogs17282 helpful post that puts together the s3 hints for this wild guess post.

(I know you also put a post on here too, I'm just failing to find it sorry 😅).

@projectmoonlightproductions dude that line you wrote, “forcing yourself to live to prove that you deserve your sentience” in relation to gingerbrave? has stuck with me for DAYS. In the best way, but still.

Gingerbrave does love living in the real world, and having friends and jellies and sunlight and snow and being surrounded by a living, breathing warren, but I feel like she wouldn’t truly be able to ENJOY or otherwise be comfortable in it for a long time because living, like almost everything else important to her so far, is a duty. It’s a duty because not only does he know that he was made to be eaten, but that she was one of a group.

For me, part of the horror of Gingerbrave’s situation is that he wasn’t (at least superficially) special. Her ENTIRE KIND was made to be prey. Her entire species is subjugated and rendered carnage for no reason other than the vices and cruelties imposed on them by a godly figure.

I feel like Gingerbrave would know on a certain level, in a certain part of his brain, that those cookies in that oven and on those plates were meant to be living, breathing kids. Kids like him. Kids that should be playing animal jam and going to school and eating slightly freezer-burnt chicken tenders and singing and laughing and running and living. What makes Gingerbrave different from all the cookies left behind on that oven tray?

I’m imagining gingerbrave, once they’re leading a “normal” life, throwing herself into everything. Trying to be the best and happiest and experience everything, with the underlying message in her brain playing “you need to live for them. They never got and never will get this; if you waste this chance in any way, you’re letting down every single one of those killed children.”

before he can get to the “living as a rebellion” mindset which is like. Infinitely more healthy in the long term, gingerbrave needs to get over the “living as a duty” thing I gave her. Btw he’s like, 12-is at this point in my personal timeline lolz. Womp womp. But uhhhh yeah!

[ganondoodle]

riot making arcane the main canon is honestly the stupidest and most unnecessary move, its taken alot of enjoyment from the show for me bc now instead of seeing it as a really well made fanfiction that i can just sit back and enjoy the reinterpretations of without worry i keep thinking how whatever they do is gonna fuck with canon and how much is retconned bc of it

they didnt even finish the other, waht 10 year old now?, retcon and now they are doing it again?? what for?? literally nothing is gained from forcing it all into arcanes interpretation- even if they want to bring more characters the show made up into the game you can do that without having to make the show the center of everything; i might have stopped playign the game but i still care about some of the characters and stories, the lore and worldbuilding is what i enjoyed most of any league stuff, all of which is now on thin ice (granted, it has been since they started to fire their writers, but now even the work they did might not even stay), it hurts to see things you loved being thrown into the garbage for no reason, whatever time i spent thinking and caring about it essentially wasted, deemed that what i cared about didnt matter at all (hhhh similarly so with totk, what is it with these things happening to the few things i ever liked ......)
