Yo the anonymous ezko fans are crawling out of the walls I love it

Give me Ezko or I'm gonna chew through your fucking walls and bite you

Done and done - always happy to draw them (now leave me and my walls ALONE)

[felecure]

I'd like to thank two people who made me resurrect and finish this old thing that gathered dust on my pc for years just like pulsefire ezreal once did on riot servers Michael Yichao (author of the canon pulsefire ekko/ezreal story) whose crypted messages on twitter about stifled creativity still have me rolling and @anothertina  for keeping this ship alive and by doing so making me remember about this wip. I wanted to give something back to you for all your wonderful drawings, thank uu

Our paths were never meant to cross, this is our first life, our only one.

Ezko animatic with Lyn Lapid’s Buttons!

-

Explanation is Ezko is only together in pulsefire. In the other universes, their oaths don’t cross, most of the time they aren’t even ware of each other’s existence.

Being able to peer into these alternate realities make them a little jealous and a little angry and, are we even supposed to be together? They’re only able to meet each other in Pulsefire when the situation calls for it because they’re on the run from enforcers, meanwhile these other AU’s of them just walk around oblivious.

In this, they’re fantasizing what kind of life they could be living in those AU’s if they were together. Also its like, they’re unaware the each other having FEELINGS feelings lol. So when they look into those au’s and see they don’t even meet, its another feeling of “Are we not supposed to be after all?”

Star crossed lovers, defying fate, yearning yadayadaaaa im yapping 🥲

Pulsefire Ezreal/runeterra Ekko

Gauntlet is malfunctioning and sending Ezreal careening through universes. It's nice to see Ekko again, even if he's not HIS Ekko

Ezreal has, more than once, managed to fling himself though multiple time lines. There's names for them, he knows. Psyops, arcade, star guardian, and on and on, universes beyond measurable amount. Sometimes he exists in them. Sometimes he doesn't.

Usually, though, he finds Ekko.

Ekko takes him to his rickety table and gets him a glass of filtered water in the slums of Zaun. He watches Ezreal with a raised eyebrow and fingers tapping the seconds against his arm.

"So," he says, so casually it's come right back round to being pointed. "You're not Ezreal."

"What? No, yeah, I AM Ezreal, thank you very much! The one and only prodigal explorer Ezreal!"

Ekko is nodding his head, doubt painted over his face.

"Uh huh. So who was it that left this place two days ago with a completely different gauntlet?"

Ezreal looks down at gauntlet. She's sleek and shiny, bright chrome and glowing blue. These days her voice is staticky and warped, but he still loves it every time she speaks to him. It's good to know there's someone watching out.

"Uh." says Ezreal. He looks at Ekko with wide, panicked eyes. "I...changed my gauntlet?" he ventures.

Ekko shakes his head fondly.

Ezreal doesn't have to convince Ekko of time travel and universe hopping. Ekko knows all about that, more than Ezreal does, probably. Even in this dump of a universe where magic has choked tech down to the bone and grown wild over everything it touches. Even Ekko. He powers his drive with remnants of magic and says its steadier than any other power source could be.

Ezreal doesn't understand it, but he doesn't need to understand it.

Gauntlet's static drenched voice echoes through his mind.

"Countdown to launch has begun, get ready Ezreal. Fifty. Forty nine."

Ezreal takes another look around the little home. It's all worn down wood and bright splashes of paint and fabric, mechanical parts strewn over the desk and tiny windowsill. There's a little hextech powered clock with a little robotic bird bobbing it's head to and fro.

"Ah, damn, looks like I'm going. It was good to see you, Ekko." Ezreal curls his bare fingers into his sleeve to stop himself from reaching out. It's only been an hour or so since he arrived, and all this hopping is really starting to get boring.

And what's even more boring is the look in Ekko's eyes. Curiosity, intrigue, and nothing more. He stands across the room from Ezreal, sits down next to him, and he never jolts if they touch. He never looks at Ezreal's mouth.

"Twenty five,"

Maybe he's impulsive. He's definitely impulsive. But then, Ekko has always been his little mystery, like if a city was a person. Ezreal specialises in the dead places, sure, but that's only because the living scream at you when you take their stuff.

"Fifteen."

Ezreal arcane shifts over to Ekko's side, uses his shoulder to steady himself.

"Really good." he says. Maybe it's wistful. Whatever. He's never going to see this Ekko again.

He kisses him on the cheek and the last thing he sees of this world is Ekko's bright eyes, his shocked expression.

Everything dissolves into the unreal brightness of the time slip, and here he goes again, the prodigal explorer, off on another adventure.

Maybe this time, he'll find a place to sleep for an hour or so.

Ezko, in every universe <3

four matching skins in this economy... they're insane

[questionablecuttlefish]

Bi Rep in the New Canon

So....worth pointing out.

Riot has stated that a League champion's sexuality is an inherent part of their character that doesn't change across different skinlines and AUs.

So, given SG Jinx has lines like "Lux makes even boring beautiful", the extremely sapphic Burning Bright video, the album cover, all of suqling's 'totally-not-canon-you-guys' SG comics, etc, we know she likes girls. Specifically Lux.

Lux seems interested in Ezreal in Battle Academia, Star Guardian (bleh) and the V-day skins, mostly ignores him in other skinlines and completely dismisses or doesn't even know him in the main one, and blushes at Sylas in one panel of the Lux comic before that crush comes crashing down permanently, so we know she does like guys. Even if it comes down to 'one het blush per AU'.

Lux is very affectionate with Jinx in Valoran Town, considers her to be her 'best and only friend' just like in Star Guardian, and is depicted in a few promo arts for both the show and for Wild Rift touching Jinx, hand on her waist, Jinx lying head on her lap or cuddling up to her and stealing cookies. They're hecking cute in the Wild Rift trailer and the Chinese New Year follow up too, just saying.

Ekko and Ezreal are dating in the Pulsefire universe. Just read the short story, and if that's not enough for you, the writer outright said after they left riot their intention was for them to be a couple in that universe. So they have the strongest 'bi-canon' going for them.

What I'm saying is that Jinx, Lux, Ekko and Ezreal are all canonically bisexual.

And the best way the Arcane canon could prove this is by, IDK, having Jinx fly to Demacia and kiss a light mage.

And Ekko maybe kiss a cute-but-annoying Piltie explorer.

Arcane gave us CaitVi, JayVik (sorry Christian I don't believe you buddy) AU timebomb, let's get Lightcannon and Ezko 😌🙏 complete the collection.

I don't make the rules.

[anothertina]

[our-hextech-dream]

oh my god i just realized riot already DID a multiverse/time travel gay divorced-but-not-really and they make up at the end piltovan/zaunite couple, it was ezreal and ekko from the pulsefire universe color story, out of time.

[ohnoitstbskyen]

Good day to you, TB Skyen. There has been a little bit of controversy around Samira's new ultimate skin, concerning a disappointing lack of features/anything *really* innovative about it. Some even went as far as calling it an overpriced legendary due to the skin's lack of custom forms, new animations etc. Could you please share your opinion on the matter, if you don't mind of course.

Ah, Ultimate Skins, aka Riot's Folly. It's a big feature creep problem that Riot has never really been able to deal with.

It used to be that Ultimate skins were the pinnacle of what Riot could do with their skin and graphics tech, but then they started porting tech and features from the Ultimate skins into legendary skins and even into base champion designs. Kayle's model changing as she levels up, for example, is something that used to be sold on Pulsefire Ezreal as an Ultimate skin feature.

The net result is that the baseline for quality has shot up so drastically that there simply isn't a meaningful gulf between Ultimate skins and legendaries anymore, and because Riot are so determined to keep League of Legends viable to run on extremely underpowered hardware (where a lot of their players are), there isn't a lot of headroom to expand above it. At some point, you would run into memory issues if five (or god forbid ten) players all tried to load into a match using Ultimate skins.

It's not really an issue with any kind of easy solution, unfortunately, and I have a lot of sympathy for the skins teams trying to operate under all these compounding limitations. They get told to deliver an Ultimate skin, but then also get hard limits put on how many features they're allowed to ship it with.

Riot Games the company gets no sympathy, though, because this is ENTIRELY a problem of their own making, the consequences of which they are trying to pass on to the players. They want to keep selling ultimate skins at full price, but they're unwilling to actually add the kinds of features needed for a skin to deserve the category. It's scumbag capitalist shit, it's having your cake and eating it too.

What would be honest and "player first" (that slogan they claim is their foremost company value) of them to do would be to drop the Ultimate category entirely, recategorize them all as Legendaries, and drop the price accordingly, in recognition that Riot itself moved the goalposts of what those categories mean.

The result is a worse quality product at higher relative prices, which Riot will obstinately and necessarily insist is actually a better product with more features. It's the Live Service Game version of Cory Doctorow's concept of enshittification.
