sitters, rise up! (not really, please continue to stay down)
Shout out to the sitting community.
hello lads, i’m just dropping by to post another short story i did earlier this year for my creative writing unit that i only just realised gives off “saltburn” and tyler the creator’s “igor” vibes :)
it is my retelling of what went down in the garden of eden, told from adam’s perspective. in this iteration, adam is confused and overwhelmed with his infatuation with eve, he worships her but also despises her.
if anyone is interested i can do a breakdown of the themes and explicit references to events from the holy bible i scattered throughout the story. it’s definitely my favourite thing i’ve written in a long fucking time and i’m super excited to share it with you guys :3
it’s a bit of a long read so i’ll post it separately after this uhhh announcement thingie??
anyway, thank you lads for your time :3
note: keep in mind i will add warnings/tags to this story there are some themes that aren’t exactly appropriate for everyone so viewer discretion is advised :0
Who's gonna tell him

in her defence, she mad OP — i hate what she stands for but mama… mama… the theatrics? the monologues, the speeches… the ✨style✨. idc if she’s the big bad she’s putting her all into it even if it means ten thousand eternities in hellfire.

if viktor dies again (which) i predict is highly likely, i really want it to be on his goddamn terms.
however, i don’t think it is by mistake that viktor is written with little to no autonomy this season. in his final words/closing monologue, he speaks about the human condition and the elements that contradict one another but still coexist together, the binaries of hate vs love, sacrifice, suffering, affliction, healing, rebirth etc.
all of those things must exist, they must survive. they cannot be overcome, the good and the bad are necessary for life to be experienced in its fullest. if viktor and jayce are meant to represent one side of a coin, their consent was never something that mattered to begin with. it is not by mistake viktor discussed the possibility of fate — predestined paths and a future already foretold — with singed, his former mentor.
tldr; it’s arcane. everything happens for a reason but i too, am annoyed about viktor not having much of an autonomy this season.
as a side note: i get all the hate jayce is getting for what happened but people are forgetting that he is not himself, viktor even says this after he witnesses jayce murder salo.
if jayce was actually in there he would’ve broke free of whatever was controlling him, but the “cause” — which is unknown to us as the audience, as of now — was far greater than preserving the life of viktor.
now, keep in mind jayce wouldn’t have to kill viktor if he never resurrected him with the hexcore, he is already being punished for the choices that he made.
the arcane came into this world through jayce, he is the catalyst of everything, and i fear that it is only him that can correct what happened.
i don’t think it’s a mistake that the “arcane” title card appears after jayce walks into the light either, so despite the second time viktor dies being completely out of his and jayce’s hands. the boy wasn’t himself, even when executing the death of his someone dead to him, he doesn’t even haggle — he knows what is at stake.
jayce has seen what heimerdinger has been warning him of all along, he understands now… and unfortunately viktor does too…
tldr; maybe stop being mad at jayce? perhaps?
it's so fucked up that viktor still hasn't had any autonomy this season. he gets brought back against his own will by jayce with the hexcore. and then he makes peace with that decision and starts a commune to try to help other people and jayce kills him. and now singed is probably going to bring him back as the machine herald and he still has no say in the matter. he has no choice here, he's just being yanked around like a puppet. and that's not even talking about whatever the arcane could be doing to his mind
she’s such an incredibly well written character, i love the arc she went on. from banishment to self exile, she may no longer be a passenger in her own story but she is alone in her journey. i trust that she finds her way and carves her own path, remembering to be both the wolf and the fox in order to honour her heritage. after all, she is the last living merdara…
the tragedy of mel, actually. she loses her family twice, she loses her partner, she loses herself, and when she tries to make things right, she becomes the wolf, and sails away with the noxians in the colors of the mother she loved and killed
