girl help I'm delusional
I am a small frail kitten with multiple mental illnesses & I am banned from most public spaces. Anyways so I had long(er) hair & then I cut it to look like Rapunzel after The Big Chop TM & have been happy with it since My hair has been blue for the full second half of my life, I joke that it's my natural hair color, so even though it resembles raps post chop in shape- it does not in color. I would also like to establish here that Rapunzel & Jinx are compared to each other on the regular and crossed over / connected etc etc etc (and I relate heavily to both girls on an insane level) HOWEVER GIRL THIS IS WHERE I GET WEIRD Bcs if it is in fact true that Jinx gets a big hair chop TM in season 2 Then my hair is going to look incredibly similar to hers and and and what if I said that i'm tweaking about this and that I feel validated as an obsessive kinnie to these two. girl what then. hoooolllyy shit I need to renew my medication
Piltover Zaun
The difference in how they see Jinx abbevzbzb
I feel like miss colorful would not like all the black and judge Vi immensely for it, which is hilarious to me.
Jinx: What are you wearing, Vi? You look ridiculous.
Vi: I look ridiculous?! I’m not the one in a stupid shark hoodie!
Jinx: You don’t like my hoodie?
Vi: No, you look adorable. Fine, I’ll take a shower.
--
Jinx: While you distract her, I’ll spray her down with the hose.
Ekko: She’s allowed to wear whatever she wants.
Jinx: No. No, she’s not. I won’t let her.
--
Ekko: I think your only choices here are goth Vi or enforcer Vi.
Jinx: Now, you would think that would be an easy choice, but I’m actually struggling here.
--
When Vi thinks Jinx is dead and is all depressed about it, Jinx comes out of nowhere and throws a bucket of soapy water on Vi, stares at her for a second, and then immediately runs off without saying anything
Vi: wtf?
vi’s new theme song!
this season will ruin me but fanart is my copium
such a. girl failure (affectionate)
other variations of vi with a nosebleed, alcohol drool and cigarette smoke
My girls are going through it i fear
she's going to suffer a lot this season:( isn't she?
Ready for another mental breakdown bc of arcane come November but in lighter news, am i the only one who paused the trailer and squealed hearing vi call Caitlyn "cait?"
watching arcane fans lose it over vi’s hair like this is kpop and an idol died his hair a new color and did a very good job at hiding it
“Oh, it all makes sense now brother. Is there anything so undoing as a daughter?”
I am begging some of yall to put your thinking caps on this season Caitlyn is NOT THE BAD GUY
someone on twitter asked where is her X gone...well well well
AND THERE HE ISSSSSSS
No kidding, this thing will probably create one of the most horrifying and dramatic experiences in cinematic history
Words can't describe the hype this short thing brought me.
The lullaby makes it all so creepy and yet it's such a melancholic thing? Singed looking like a zombie, almost fainting from the blood transfusion, and Warwick back there??? That thing is gigantic.
It's sad that we can't see his face, but I really hope they keep the bat-like ears and the twisted fangs. Over all, the animators really captured the meaning of an absolute chimera beast. I can't wait to see him begin his killing spree.
O Cachorro Caramelo de Zaun !!!
Sevika
Let's talk about Sevika.
She's a damn great character, well built as someone who always and only works for someone she believes will help Zaun - her biggest motivation is helping Zaun.
Sevika is a well known figure in the lanes, both from Vander's and Silco's era, and I believe that her reputation will stay as a respected person - for a while.
Why "for a while"? Warwick.
You see, when Vander was being dragged to that chair in episode 3, he's staring at Sevika, and what we hear in the background? The blood hunt.
I reckon every Warwick player knows what it is; it's the name of his W. And in most cases, it means a low life enemy.
What I'm trying to say? Warwick may hunt Sevika, wether because he's chasing a ghost memory of a traitor, a primor urge of vengeance, or simply because she's the low life enemy we always run across the map to kill.
Look, I love Sevika, but I truly think that may happen... I hope I'm wrong, or that at least she's able to escape and, I don't know, maybe Vi searches for Sevika looking for information
Anyway, I just hope Arcane comes out soon so I can go and cry because of it
Listen I KNOW this very few seconds are right after the missile hit and this is someone´s POV (look at the camera movement) and that someone is either Jayce, Viktor or Mel and whoever it is ITS GOING TO MAKE ME CRY
Alright bear with me here, I’m about to get delulu as feck. But assuming that this circular looking object is the decoration embedded in the floor at the center of the council table…
And assuming this is a piece of the table and not roof/wall debris…
Then by perspective, it has to be someone who was in this general area…
👀👀👀👀
NO LIKE IM SOOO WORRIED IN GENERAL BCS ONCE THEY REACH THEIR LOL FORM/ARCHETYPE, ANYYYY OF THE CHARACTERSS WE LOVE COULD BE KILLED FOR THE SAKE OF THE STORY,
LIKE CHRISTIAN LINKE (the very important writer of arcane) SAAAiDD THAT HE DOESNT THINK THAT THE CHARACTHERS SHOULD LIVE IF THAT BOTHERS THE STORYYY LIKE IM GOING INSANEEEE
very quickly need someone to confirm how canon arcane is to the games because i am sensing a faint ripple in the universe and that ripple is spelling out an accidental vi death at caitlyn’s hands…. someone save my life
I got a theory that's a bit of a stretch BUT-What if Viktor will use the hexcore to power Blitzcrank in arcane? Blitz does end up having a mind of their own, but mabey it's because of the hexcore? It's the only hextech technology that does think in a way, Jayce ends up building weapons, Viktor wouldn’t trust Jayce with it. So Viktor will put it to some other use than intented, because he can’t destroy it himself. Like helping people or as a powersource, like for a robot golem.
Plus Blitz's purple magic glow is similar to the core's glow too.
+ follow up
No no, I don’t think this is a stretch at all. I think in those few frames we got of Viktor, he’s using some kind of magic which very much resembles the Hexcore magic (though notably we don’t see the Hexcore). So I’m wondering if Viktor now has the power in his augmented limbs? And perhaps the Hexcore is installed elsewhere? Saaaaaay the golem he invented to assist him in his surgeries.
Although that seems to be Viktor’s left arm reaching out to whoever is standing in front of him (some have said Huck), and so far only Viktor’s right hand has been augmented by the Hexcore. Maybe he ends up augmenting more, and the more he does, the more of a connection he has to the Hexcore… which in turn gives him magic abilities in those limbs. Almost like a true mage.
But in regards to Blitz… I think this is a likely theory. Cuz unless Viktor steals more Hextech gemstones, then that will be the only thing in his possession that could bring Blitzcrank to life.
JKJKJKJK THERE HE IS THE BOIIIIIIII. That’s his staff and a modified arm ahanfjjsavavshsnahags I’m THROWING UP
PERSONALLY...
Do I think the poster was photoshoped and put together by someone who does not work at all in fortiche? Yeah, most likely just marketing material for the retailer
BUT they probably got the renders from the *actual* marketing team from either Fortiche or Netflix.
And I think that Viktor is from the * time skip* period. As you pointed out, his hair is mid point between acts 1 and 2. his hand is not hexcorized, and he looks slightly healthier than in act 2.
So I'm thinking that render comes specifically from a flashback segment in season 2
Oooooooo I did not think of that! It could definitely be a flashback. We know there will be a few, cuz I’m pretty sure I saw somewhere that Silco’s VA recorded some lines for S2.
And I actually have a little theory that could fit into this. I kinda feel like maybe Viktor has been smuggling Hextech projects into the Undercity for a while. Like… it probably became clear to him when Jayce became a councilor (if not sooner) that Hextech was being co-opted by the rich, and it was never going to help the people he set out to help. So he started working on smaller projects (water filters, air purifiers, things of that nature) and sneaking them into Zaun. And if this were to come to light somehow, (shown to us in saaaaay a flashback) it would be yet another nail in the coffin of his exile. Cuz the council could spin it, make it look like Viktor was colluding with Zaun the whole time, smuggling them Hextech weapons and aiding Jinx in her attack (which is of course a lie, but if they are able to prove he was smuggling Hextech into Zaun, he wouldn’t really have an answer for these accusations… not one they’d be inclined to believe, anyway.)
And I do have something to back it up: this. This right here. This look, when Jayce is actually floating the idea of building weapons to be used against Viktor’s people.
The wheels are turning. That is a look of realization, of determination. It says oh you’re not the man I thought you were. So it’s up to me now. I have to help them.
