Spoilers for chapters one and two of Dear Pirate Across the Sea by jinxedbypow on Ao3. Not bothering with alt text because you can read it much better described in the actual fic :p
AU AU, haha (like, Australian AU, Geddit?) because I went to Bunnings yesterday and Jinx would've loved Bunnings.
it must've been like a punch to the gut when ekko saw powder from this:

He implies she's worth building something new with, next thing we know he's wearing a more revealing outfit with her signature X doodled all over his body. Good for him!
Also, between this scene and the moment they show up in battle, they've apparently had the time to: - turn her entire lab/hideout into a blimp - cover the whole thing in giant tags of the firelights symbol, her cloud tatoos, and more - rebuild pow pow and fishbones, which were very much broken in act 2 - rally the firelights - cut and dye her hair - crop his top - pierce his ears - sew her a shark hoodie - cover her entire body in crayon drawings - accessorize their outfits - again, turn her lair, a giant airshaft, into a functional blimp
Maybe Ambessa gave her entire army the week off before battle. Maybe Jinx and Ekko were on unfathomable amounts of cocaine. We'll never know
