The Thing About Jayce Is That The Same Thing That Makes Him So Annoying In Season 1 Also Makes Him So

the thing about jayce is that the same thing that makes him so annoying in season 1 also makes him so endearing in season 2. and it all comes down to his sense of loyalty. he spends a lot of time in the first season struggling with being a people pleaser and a great example of this is the aftermath of his progress day speech. heimerdinger insists that the hextech inventions need more work so he holds off on revealing them to the public, disappointing both viktor and mel. he's constantly being pulled thin by conflicting loyalties. he wants to appease the council so he rubs elbows with them and allows their illegal imports despite just raising security in the hexgates. he wants to keep the people of piltover safe so he puts up the barricade at the bridge even when that worsens the city's relationship with zaun. and when vi storms in and tells him that the best way to hurt silco is to destroy his shimmer factory he goes in swinging

but in season 2 after he quits the council jayce isn't obligated to please them and the people of piltover anymore and has some freedom to choose what he really wants. and it turns out that at his very core his loyalty is to viktor. jayce says it himself, he believes now that his place is in the lab with him, not on the council. that same devotion that led to him going astray in the first season is also what leads him to revive viktor with the hexcore. jayce just can't stand inaction. if he thinks he's found a solution he'll reach for it every time and when it comes to his place on the council that means acting against silco and intentionally or not escalating the zaun-piltover conflict. but when it comes to viktor that means doing whatever he can to save him even to the bitter end. and that makes him a much more sympathetic character because while those choices aren't necessarily morally better than the ones he made in season 1 they're also primarily motivated by his love for viktor

Do you think about Jayce living in that cave for who knows how long, surviving on lizard meat that barely gives him enough energy to move around. Him losing muscles mass in drove, still retaining some of his built but so so tired and so much weaker.

Going back to his timeline with barely any time to do much, does he even get to eat a full meal? Even if he did, can he even keep it down long enough to digest it or is it too much food for his stomach to handle. Does food even taste like anything to him? Did he constantly feel hunger rattling the back of his mind that he can’t sedated? Did he ignore it in favour of saving a bit of time? He’s a man at death’s door anyway, a little hunger can’t compare to the death of humanity itself. So he endure and endure…

Whats up with the Viktor and milk thing? I'm trying to find the origin but can't

UASHUASDH you mean his love for sweetmilk instead of like any meme me or any other person has made right?

If thats the case its in his color story, when a child breaks into his house and is kinda scared shitless of him he offers them some sweetmilk to calm them down and have a nice chat

You know what I hate? The irony of Viktor teasing Jayce for signing every page of his notes during their first meeting, with the implication that he is afraid someone else might claim his work for themselves, only for Viktor's name to then be erased from the Hexgates documents by the end of Season 2 and their work attributed to Jayce alone.

Like yes, in retrospect, they should have signed every page together, and maybe even put some unremovable watermak on their blueprints so Viktor's involvement couldn't be ignored.

I hope now after Harry has once again confirmed that Viktor is soft-spoken and his anger is quiet anger that the fandom will stop writing him as aggressive, cold, rude, and angry in the form of cruelty or outbursts. it's literally so opposite his character I don't see how this portrayal of him persists so frequently. Canonically, when he's angry, we see him speak in low, controlled tones, or with words that are more sharp and hissed than his usual timbre but at the same quiet volume. The only times he raises his voice in the show are when he's alone, screaming from pain, fear, or emotional release. He never yells at anyone, that's why those rare moments where he does raise his voice hit so powerfully. He curls in on himself and makes himself smaller when upset and vulnerable, he doesn't lash out or intimidate others. He cries, he whimpers, he doesn't shout. He hyperventilates and throws up from nerves. Like how does so much of the fandom overlook this and somehow turn him into some sarcastic, aloof 'broody dark-haired boy' stereotype that hits people with his cane and insults Jayce. Please go back and rewatch the source material.

Ok So Just So You Know, Here Are A Few Things That Jayce Did Immediately Upon Having His Journal Returned

ok so just so you know, here are a few things that jayce did immediately upon having his journal returned to him:

make a reminder to ask viktor for his surname (also this ties to viktor being potentially related to some other major lore character)

draw viktor

quote viktor (multiple times)

mention viktor in every single one of his experiment annotations, including detailed description of what viktor did to help him

write down viktor’s opinion on almost everything concerning their experiments (which are apparently the most important part of jayce’s life, he values hextech even more than his position at the academy)

im just gonna leave all of it here without further comment, lmfao
