I like thinking about her as a fun aunt that holds onto every single trinket she’s ever been given

ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: 2x02 - “Watch It All Burn” ↳ "You need not suffer anymore."

[ps2dinosaur]

I know the first image is a more blatant Jinx and Janna parallel shot but there's also this other one with Jinx's hair swirling like the carving. It's unsaid by the characters so far but I bet this image fed into this almost mythical icon Jinx will become to Zaun.

The Water's Cold Embrace Masterlist

Content: Female reader x Slico, pre-Arcane season 1, will go into season 1 but much later, young Silco, Vander, Sevika, Felicia, Connol, & baby Viktor, Vi, Powder, Viktor's parents, canon typical descriptions of violence & death, reader has water manipulation powers, sex (further warning in individual part), drugs, smoking, revolution, unrequited love...or is it???, friends to lovers, slow burn, slight Arcane season 2/League of Legends spoiler (Janna, Felicia/Connol)

A/N: since season 2 came out I was reminded that I had some bits and pieces of this story I made while watching season 1 and thought, hey, now is a good time as any to put them out there into the world. I wanted to write for the characters pre-season 1 cause how fun would it be to write for all their interactions before everything went to complete shit? It's so much fun and thus this fic was born lol. I hope you all enjoy!

Random things from Arcane Season 2 teaser

Jinx seems to be hunting down other Chem-Barons? Maybe she wants to properly take over.

And Sevika is helping her, that arm looks very much modified by Jinx.

That's absolutely Viktor in the slums with the Shimmer addicts, hint of the glorious revolution?

Vi has her googles!!! And they are indeed Claggors!!!!

Warwick looks different! I wonder if they'll make it so he's not completly wolfed out and he still has a human-looking face

Vi and Jinx fight in a temple dedicated to Janna!

[h3artw0rms]

The Shuriman chanting from the song "Ashes and Blood" is one of the best lore tied songs in my opinion!

Translated, it means:

Beyond these walls, the storm's fury grows

Over land and sea, the storm's fury grows

But I have nothing to fear!

For the blue bird is with me

Which is a clear reference to the wind goddess/ wind spirit Janna Jinx was talking about in that very cave where she was battling Vi.

In LoL she's a deity that actually exists, she helps the citizens of Zaun, but especially children. In earlier lore, she was a Zaunite herself, a human girl who helped others, but was seen as a kind of saint (parallel to Arcane Viktor now? Who knows!)

Anyway, the lyrics can be interpreted as the following:

"Beyond these walls, the storm's fury grows / Over land and sea, the storm's fury grows" Janna is a protector, born from the prayers of those in desperate situations. For someone living in such a precarious state, the storm outside could symbolize the chaos, danger, or turmoil in the world, whether literal storms or the metaphorical struggles of life in Zaun or elsewhere. Despite this overwhelming fury, the speaker feels no fear because Janna, often depicted as a benevolent blue bird, is present to shield them.

This aligns with how Janna is worshiped in Zaun as a guardian spirit. The people in the harsh, industrialized, and often hazardous environment of Zaun look to her for safety. The "walls" in the lyrics could represent physical barriers, like the buildings in Zaun, or emotional barriers, a symbol of vulnerability. Yet, no matter how strong the storm outside, Janna’s presence provides reassurance and protection.

"But I have nothing to fear! / For the blue bird is with me" It's Janna herself. In this interpretation, the blue bird becomes not just a symbol of Janna’s watchfulness but also a representation of hope and faith. It embodies the idea that no matter how fierce the outside world becomes, the winds and Janna will always safeguard those who trust in her.

These lines mirror the hope and protection Janna brings. The blue bird, as a manifestation of her essence, reassures those in peril. To believers, the sight of a blue bird is a promise that they are not alone, and Janna’s winds will shield them from harm.

In official LoL lore, it says:

Seafarers might spot a bright blue bird just before a healthy tailwind billowed their sails. Others could swear they’d heard a whistling in the air right before a storm, as if to warn them of its approach. As word of these omens spread, sightings of the bird grew more common. Some even swore they had seen the bird transform into a woman. With tapered ears and flowing hair, this mysterious maiden was said to float above the water and direct the wind with a flick of her staff.

It's great how Arcane built parallels between Jinx and Viktor honestly. Janna is fictitious in the world of Arcane, but to me, Jinx is the blue bird that appeared before the storm/ rage of Piltover (as we will soon see when she starts the revolution, hence the blue flag she holds in ber hand in the trailer) and Viktor being the savior who helps the Zaunites in some other way, especially at the mention of Janna's staff and Viktor himself having a staff.

It seems to me like there are many Arcane fans but not actual League of Legens fans on here

BECAUSE WHY AREN'T MORE PEOPLE SCREAMING AT THE JANNA MENTION AND BLACK ROSE (LEBLANC???) INVOLVEMENT??

Literally screaming crying shitting, I'm taking every crumb from new champions appearing in this show that I can get

I theorized maybe they'd drop some Janna reference but Leblanc wasn't on my bingo card

So excited!!

[salmonpiffy]

Watching Arcane and suddenly wanting to draw a character that never actually show up in the show (at least she got mentioned tho XD)

This version I combined her LoR appearance with LoL Wild Rift appearance
