#jinx and sevika

[thegothicchangeling]

I often think about that scene of Sevika being soft and advising Silco about Jinx. I often think about the fact that she knew Powder before. I wonder if after Silco took her in, Sevika ever tied her shoes, watched her play, or picked her up when she fell. I wonder what it was like for Sevika to watch Silco destroy a little girl's sanity and know she couldn't do anything about it.

"Wow Silco's not on that mural!" " Zaun really hated him!"

It's literally a firelight mural... of course they are going to paint Jinx with her "real" father because the firelights hated Silco and loved Vander.

But you know who the zaunites didn't like? Vander. Vander did absolutely nothing for them, he was enabling oppression, turning a blind eye to the enforcers and the suffering of Zaun, and they were absolutely sick of it. That's why Zaun turned its back on him and embraced Silco.

Silco was by no means a perfect leader either, he brought horrible suffering to the Zaunites himself, especially those who were most impoverished. But Silco also did a lot of good for the undercity. If it weren't for him, Zaun would not have shimmer to treat all sorts of ailments, to keep people alive long enough to recieve care and prosthetics. If it weren't for him, they would not have the shimmer they need to fuel devices like Sevika and Smeech's prosthetics. It is because of Silco that little Zaun has an army of shimmer beasts and weapons to fight for freedom and defend itself from the cat. Shimmer gave Zaun a new product that wasn't under Piltover's control with which it could strengthen its economy, and we see the industries of Zaun florish under Silco. As we see illustrated in the ending of episode one, it is only through shimmer and the sacrifice that comes with it that Zaun can turn the tables on its oppressor, and I don't think the Zaunites, especially Jinx, Sevika, an the others leading this fight, will forget so soon.

In the game Convergence, which takes place after Zaun's independence, we still see Silco's symbol plastered in the undercity. His symbol remains on the assembly building in the season two trailer. Silco even seems to have a cult-like following; the eye has a strange significance in Zaun, we see Zaunites making offerings of eyeballs to a turtle-like diety that is covered in jars of eyes and has Silco's symbol inscribed on its praying hands. The Zaunites know Sevika and Jinx were loyal to Silco. It would be in their best interest to paint Silco as a hero and his death a tragedy executed by Piltover.

Bonus: I don't understand why people make such a big deal over Silco employing children in the shimmer factory like he invented child labor or something. Child labor has been a thing in Zaun at least since Piltover has been oppressing it. Silco and Vander worked in dangerous conditions in the mines as children. Ekko worked for Benzo as a child. Vander's kids steal from people to make a living, they aren't doing much better. Silco didn't get rid of child labor but he did ensure the profit from it went towards the Undercity rather than the greedy hands of Piltover.

Thinking of Sevika letting Jinx rest her head (only) on her shoulder to avoid as much contact with her as possible but slowly realizes this is something Jinx only does with someone she loves and it's what she needed at one point too.........................

Fuck I want sevika to really step up for jinx. I mean I know they don’t get along, don’t trust each other, but sevika was loyal to silco. And silco loved jinx. Loved jinx. And jinx has lost everything. She shouldn’t have to be alone. And there should be one person who knows her, knows jinx, and just looks after her. At least for silco. Because now they’ve both lost him. And they’re both alone.

Sevika: What the hell is wrong with you?

Jinx: I don’t like being excluded, bitch. Do you?!

Sevika: YES!!!!

OKAY, CAN WE TALK ABOUT SEVIKA USING JINX'S PISTOL AND HER FISHBONE'S COUSING ARM????

they became besties

[thegothicchangeling]

I have this headcanon that when Jinx/Powder was growing up, Sevika lied to her constantly to make her behave/stop annoying her. She told her flicking the lights on and off would cause a housefire. She told her eyes would pop out of her head if she had caffeine when she was too young. She told her that she only had a certain amount of words in her lifetime so she better not use them up by talking all the time. To this day, Jinx still believes some of things Sevika told her.

Sevika: Now that Silco is dead; can you actually say anyone still loves you, JINX?

Jinx: No. But I’m still really good with guns. DANCE BITCH!
