Concept
An artbook with EVERY. SINGLE. MINUTE. THING.
For example, an author includes a drawing that they did on the back of a receipt, a drawing they did on a piece of wood, etc., etc.
They include a drawing of the character which they made when they were four.
They include drawings of the character's limbs.
They include how they made their character's outfits in games like Animal Crossing.
They include swabs that they find that remind them of the characters.
They include clothing patterns.
They include a real person/animal photoshopped to look like the character.
They include real pictures that have their characters photoshopped/drawn into the scene.
They include a skeleton/anatomy diagram that gets real freaky if the character isn't humanoid (think a skeleton of Kirby).
They include replicas of props that they make for their characters.
They include the specific way they set up their desk when thinking of the character and/or are inspired by the character.
They include character-themed playlists and include what they were designing when each song was playing (ex. for You Belong with Me, they were designing the character's sneakers).
They include the rock that resembles their character in some way.
And by the time this artbook is done, it's over 1,000 pages long. AND there's a digital version that goes into EVEN MORE DETAIL (because they were running out of budget and they needed to include the rest of the content SOMEWHERE).
You guys don't understand how pissed of I am at the people in my school like bro they keep on shipping people which on its own is like fine like I do it too but they go so fucking overboard like they like last year I was shipped w/ this like really nice guy who I was friends w/ only cuz we walk w/ each other on the way home and shit and like they'd go out of their way to tell us that like "OMFG" J~~~~ YOU AND M~~~ WOULD look so good w each other" and like they had this "ship paper" thing were they would pass around and write on people they ship together and yknow this was originally meant for like cRacKhEaD ships and let me tell you they were like 'oh the dentist Ken guy w his hair gel' but then people started writing actual ships and guess which ship was the most repeated yup you guessed it me and the M guy and like my friends did it in like a jokingly way but that is the sort of friendship we have unlike these randomass bitches who come out of nowhere and be like hey fuck you like it pissed me off and the only way to get the girl who started the entire I ship you guys together sm was to tell her that I ship her w O~~~~ and that was the only way to get her off of my back and like thanks MA~~~~ me and M~~~~ no longer even talk thanks to you like our friendship started to crumble because of people like you by the start of the last term we barely acknowledged each other and I don't think you understand how hard that hurt me he was one of my closest friend also my *ONLY* guy friend and yknow what I'm too afraid to get one now because of people like you everyday I go to school wishing people would stop this most days I would go home nearly in tears because of them and then even when we stopped talking you still shipped us this is not normal this is not "teasing" this is low key bullying just cause when me and M~~~~ stopped talking I was so sad whenever I walk past him in the hallways I grieve for our lost friendship whenever I see him I wait for him to acknowledge me but no thanks to people like MA~~~ a beautiful friendship was lost people always talk about break ups but never losing friends another thing that happened that made me want to even write this is because a girl burst out to tears today because people kept on shipping her w/ this one dickhead and because of this she nearly lost all her friends I'm not exactly sure why but the entire group has some sort of grudge on him which honestly makes sense as he is as I stated earlier a dickhead
So moral of the story stop shipping people in an obvious way
I got one of those mini printer things and I've made so many stickers


I put some on my laptop :D (the £2 sticker was already there, I didn't print that one)
Things in Arcane I Think are Underappreciated
I love that Jinx is a brilliant inventor. It really makes you question what she could have been if she’d been given an actually good life and education. She get so far with the limited resources she has with making tech to harness the crystal.
Vi’s line “It's hard to check up on people from inside a concrete cell.” was delivered so heartbreakingly. You could hear her voice was about to crack at the end. You could hear the sadness and desperation. Hailee Steinfeld is an amazing voice actress. (So is everyone in this show for that matter)
also her delivery of “not all of them” when asked if she believes the topsiders are the source of all her problems. That one hurt as well especially with her seeing visions of a younger more innocent Powder.
I really love Mel’s arc. By the end of the season she rejects her Medarda heritage and fights for peace instead of war. At the start of the season proving to her family she was fit to be a Medarda was all she cared about but by the end she lets it go. (The symbolism with her covering her painting in gold and removing her ring to show this rejection of her heritage were great)
I also love how in the show Vi is associated with the song enemy by imagine dragons whereas Jinx is associated with the song guns for hire by woodkid. Those songs fit them really well and were used so well in the show.
In episode 9, after Vi and Jayce almost fight and Jayce leaves, Vi stands over the body of the dead kid and looks upset. She does care that a kid was killed. She acted otherwise to try and stop Jayce from going back to the piltover policy of doing nothing to help the trenchers. Death hasn’t stopped effecting Vi despite how much of it she has seen.
Caitlyn’s struggle to do any of the parkour that Vi does so easily. (This legitimately made me laugh out loud)
I think Caitlyn’s character outside of her relationship with Vi is a bit underappreciated too. Caitlyn became an enforcer against her family’s wishes and went out of her way to try and understand the trenchers. She learned of the corruption within Piltover and resolved to work to change that and root it out. And unlike Jayce she doesn’t back down when pressured to let the corruption, however “minor”, happen. Caitlyn truly cares about others even the people ravaged by shimmer that the people in Piltover ignore. Caitlyn is a great character in her own right.
