One of the most deeply compelling relationships in Arcane is between Silco and Sevika. There is a level of dedication and devotion there that would ordinarily be seen in romantic partners, with her even doing the 'pushing your loved one out of the way and taking a critical injury in their place' thing, but what their relationship is based on isn't mutual affection of any kind (though there may or may not be some there) but ideology. I wonder what that dynamic would translate to in other AUs, like a modern one.
So does he not fight in the pits in the pit fighter AU? I've been lied to. Swindled. Bamboozled. Hornswoggled.
I love the way the pit fighter viktor makeup looks but unfortunately other than the superficial aspect of it I simply cannot get down with a pit fighter viktor au. Get that sick man outta the ring
I think the problem I have with the dragon prince (beyond a surprising lack of dragons), while finding most of it decently entertaining, is that by far the most interesting aspect of their magic system is dark magic and the other magic doesn't even remotely compare to the point where it feel unintentionally imbalanced. Not to sound like Viren but it IS clever and practical and until any of the other kinds of magic can prove that they're able to cure full body paralysis for the price of a single deer (who get hunted for their meat daily anyway) they don't hold a candle to it.
Yes, other dark magic spells bad, don't trap people in coins forever, but like, for a series that likes to dip its toe into grey morality sometimes, it's weird how 'we should evaluate spells on a case by case basis instead of painting all of a certain kind with the same brush because some of them are incredibly helpful' doesn't seem to be the final conclusion the series is/was headed towards. Am I supposed to give up all helpful drugs because some of them are poisonous or addictive? No, it's about which ones are used in which context and in what amount. Maybe 'regulations good' is just too boring a conclusion or something.

i'm glad people like bayker but i cannot get past the concept of a baker who snuffles and sniffs all over my pastries
what did i mean by this.
imagine going to burger king and you're like can i have a chicken wrap which isn't a burger nor on the menu but isn't an unreasonable thing to order and they're like sorry we don't serve wraps but we can introduce you to our burger guy who makes the best burgers and then you go to the burger guy and he's like yeah i can make a burger and a wrap but i think you should go to the sushi bar next door because. i'm gonna fuck the wrap?
