I'm Going To Add This As A Chapter To The AO3 Fanfic Series I've Got In My Head

I don't like how some of the gifs shown are NOT the same whatsoever

Caitlyn's vs Jinx's Target practice

Caitlyn is able to train alongside professionals and have a set-up that is no doubt larger than the size of a football field (remember: she was running and shooting targets during the competition) while Jinx has only her and the rest of the kids. Maybe there are a few adults who can guide them how to use a weapon, but she's not given the same resources as Jinx. Not to mention, Caitlyn's training to be an enforcer or, at the very least, for fun and as a hobby while Jinx does so to protect herself.

Cassandra's funeral vs Silco's funeral

Cassandra has a fancy casket, is surrounded by a crowd of people who mourn her, and has a whole fancy funeral arrangement while Silco . . . Silco gets dumped in a river. Again, Jinx is not given the same resources as Caitlyn. Cassandra's funeral is an organized event and you could argue that since Silco is a horrible man surrounded by people who want him for his power, he won't have a whole crowd at his funeral—that only emphasizes the differences between Jinx and Silco. Jinx wasn't able to grieve Silco with people she cared about while Caitlyn could.

Vi stopping Caitlyn vs her stopping Jinx

I'm not gonna defend what Jinx did cause she was shooting at Firelights, but the narrative has established that she was raised to be the violent person that she is. Look at the alternate universe for example—Powder restrains herself and is nowhere near as cruel. Caitlyn, on the other hand, was not raised to be so cruel. She was a much kinder person who didn't want violence to occur before her mother's death. Then she aimed her gun at a child in order to get revenge.

Caitlyn hurting Vi vs Jinx hurting Vi

How?? How is this comparable?? Caitlyn's reason to hurt Vi was selfish while Jinx's reason was selfless (and heavily misguided like girl please everyone just seek therapy). Caitlyn hurt Vi because Vi was trying to be her sense of reason and Cait was too deep in her grief to care. Vi didn't want Caitlyn to shoot at a child, so Cait hit her and tried to go after her sister to kill her only for revenge. Jinx, on the other hand, hurt Vi to do right by her sister. She hurt Vi to keep her in the cell and leave her life forever so Vi could be "happy".

Which is stupid cause if Ekko can start getting along with Jinx, then Caitlyn should've been as well if she weren't such an asshole. There was no reason to choose.

Caitlyn's posters vs Jinx's posters

They are kind of comparable, I'll admit, but I would like to point out that Caitlyn's posters were propaganda. Not only was she harming the topside AND undercity, she was trying to make it seem like this would somehow (??) unite them. How?? How was she going to create peace between Piltover and Zaun with the militant state she put the Topsiders in??? Jinx terrorized the undercity (through her helping Silco) though she did so because she was raised by him and isolated. Caitlyn terrorized both the topside and undercity. Jinx did so as well, but she's from the undercity, so obviously she won't care what happens to the topside. Honestly, me neither. Explode those enforcer tents, Jinx!! Caitlyn though??? Girl, you live in the topside. Why are you doing this to your own people???

"—account for your actions."

"No amount of good deeds can undo our crimes"

Um . . . Okay. . . So how are you gonna account for you becoming a dictator?? Cause no good deeds of trying to fix the undercity is gonna account for YOUR WAR CRIMES, so what are ya gonna do??

Arcane Fandom Pet Peeve:

Trans Viktor and Cis Jayce

There's so many things wrong with fanon JayVik and one of those things is people's trans Viktor headcanons

Okay, okay hear me out—I don't fucking care that people have a right to headcanon whatever they want. I know some people have already pointed out that people can headcanon Viktor as trans if they please—which, yeah, I'm not gonna say "Hey, bitch! Viktor should be cis and Jayce should be trans!1!!1!", but I will say that I hate the reinforcement of hetero gender roles and the stereotypical trans man appearance.

What's the stereotypical trans man appearance you may ask? If you don't already know, it's white and skinny. (Don't try to fucking deny it) People will generally think of white queers more so than they do queers of color. Not only that, but they'll usually think of small and skinny when they think of trans men.

"UwU omg smol (white) boy KYAAA"

Bleh.

Trans men aren't all small. Plenty of trans men can be chubby, bulky, tall (or at least average fucking height and not like 4'11 with a snatched waist), etc etc. Additionally, afab parents in gay relationships aren't all automatically assigned the "mommy" role. I'm definitely more of the "mommy" type; however, I'm not small nor white and a large portion of trans men who want to be parents don't want to be thought of as "mommies" much less the "girl" in the relationship.

Gay relationships are gay for a reason!! Some relationships will have the masc and fem role, but not all!!! Not even in straight relationships will the smaller partner be fem/female or the bigger partner be masc/male.

I get why people headcanon Viktor as trans. If you're white, you'll automatically align yourself more with white characters and sort of toss aside characters of color. I hate it, but whatev. My main issue comes with people making Viktor trans AND giving him more feminine personality traits.

Neither Jayce nor Viktor needs to be the "girl" in their relationship!!!

But if you're gonna assign a "girl" in the relationship, why not let it be Jayce?

Not in the ironic sense where you make memes and laugh about pregnant Jayce, but in the unironic sense that you're making and liking scene redraws of male and female characters where Viktor takes the female character's place.

I know why of course. . . Doesn't mean I'm not still getting ticked off.

Some sketches of scenes in my Trolls fic The (Accidental) Secret of Pop Trolls. I’ll probably make some more but these sketches are specifically the chapter “For Their Safety”!!

Someone mentioned this ship ONCE and it's plagued me

MY GOD PEOPLE ARE WILD 😨😨😨

Call him sushi the way I’d take him raw

Reblogging bc Steb is hawt 🗣️‼️‼️

Sometimes I wonder how Steb felt as a medic having to use The Grey, whether he felt guilty and unable to refuse because Caitlyn was his superior, whether he did so reluctantly because he heard of the plans the councilors had with waging war on the undercity, whether he agreed because he figured that Jinx and Silco would cause more damage both to Piltover and the undercity—did he feel guilt afterwards hearing that Jinx wasn't captured? Did he feel responsible for the people in Piltover inhaling The Gray? Did he wonder if any innocent Zaunites were injured during the gassing? If all the people who he and the Strike Team hurt were truly evil or if they were forced into working for Silco and the Chem Barons because they didn't have any other option?

Steb is so smokin' and I'm dreaming of eating his fish stick 😋

'why does everyone care about loris/steb, they're just background character and barely had any screen time'

have you considered that other people have imagination? and that they can see good in people's faces without the need for words? that they are capable of imagining what a character would be like outside of the few scenes they're in, just from subtle expressions and details about their personality? that some of us don't need to know someone to see that they are worthy of kindness and love and attention?

have you considered that they're hot
