#jayce does indeed care for Mel

[trashnotfound]

S2 of arcane got me really thinking about the different relationship Jayce has with Mel and Viktor

Mel Is like a nice shiny trophy, who everyone praises Jayce for getting, it’s the one he shows off the most. Its got its own designated place on his Mantle. It comes up in conversation more times then he can count, viktor is the first trophy he ever won, it’s the first time he ever got confirmation he was good at something, not just good but the best. Sure it may be smaller, and it may not looks as nice, and it may be stored to the back of the display case where no one can se., He doesn’t show it off to anyone, and it barley comes up on conversation. But if someone were to ask jayce what his favourite trophy was, he’d say viktor.

it’s the first time he ever saw something in him self, and it’s been there to remind him how far he’s come. Viktor was his stepping stone, and without him he wouldn’t anywhere
