Zaun's Royalty

Arcane, real end

LOOK WHAT I JUST GOT AAHHH!!! 😭😭 as soon as i get jinx im unboxing both of them and making them kiss 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨

timebomb is literally so crazy like. i do not usually fuck with enemies to lovers as a trope but childhood friends to enemies to lovers just hits Different. and even when they were enemies they still cared about each other? ekko never being one of the voices in jinx’s head even when she thought she had killed him on the bridge? ekko admitting that he gave up on her realizing he never quite stopped loving her? fucks me up so bad. ekko surviving the bridge fight becoming the only person jinx has failed to kill ensuring he’s the only one who could have brought her out of her spiral, the living proof that she can be more than just a jinx… they fuck me up soooo bad

lots of ppl have mixed opinions on cardan in the first book, which is fair, but me personally, just LOOK at how subtle he is at protecting her. and i don’t just mean when he stuck his foot in the water to scare the nixies away from jude when his buds threw her and Taryn in the river, i mean these:

This one, when he thinks that dains spies are about to beat Jude’s ass over who gets the pretty prince, so he cautions her away from picking a fight w them. And that’s AFTER she’s kidnapped him LOOLLL

And this. really cute and subtle way of saying “be careful babe!” but he makes it seem sorta like an insult. like she would be wasting his time if she went and died. he keeps himself so well guarded so as to not get himself hurt again PLS. guys i am normal about him.

him reaching for her after he learned that valerian tried to kill her AGAIN. 😐 i need him.

And then this one. imagine how he felt seeing her leave the tower covered in blood knowing that valerian was in there w her. and Hollys annotation here. yeah ok im so normal- this proves that he didn’t expect his cruelty to encourage valerians murdery lust for jude. to encourage Locke to take her as his prize, to encourage nicasia to humiliate the twins to get cardans and lockes favor.

AND DONT GET ME STARTED, on when he’s drunk and his families been murdered and he’s officially elfhames #1 most wanted and he’s telling Jude to be careful, that she shouldn’t be at balekins evil little revel 😭😭 he worried more for her than he did himself.

and i could just GO ON. and i shall:

when he sends her a dress made for royalty opposed to one that made her look more like servant/ would allow Taryn to outshine her (she could never tho)

When he told Locke to piss off and began dancing w her when Locke was abt to tell her that he’s been fuxking her sis the whole time.

When he saw her (canon according to Hollys annotations) after she stole Sophie (the human servant at hollow hall) and didn’t do or say anything AND PROBABLY EVEN TOOK THE FUCKING BLAMMMEEE IM SO SICK.

anyway I’m sure there’s more so feel free to add on 😭

But i just LOVE how cardan knows how jude is, the way that Taryn describes jude in her novella- as someone who doesn’t back down from a dare, who picks fights with anyone and everyone, who brings those that pick on her down to her level. he knows his wife so well, even in the first book, he knew her so much better than even her father. than ANYONE even Taryn. bc Taryn was all like “promise you’ll stop bothering them!” Like do you KNOW who you’re talking to lmao

anyway I LOVE TYEMEMEMMEMEHSIAPS someone sedate me fr

Ekko: "Please, don't blow us both up!"

Jinx:

Ekko and Jinx are represented by owls and crows respectively...

Owls only fall in love once...

Owls and crows are also each other's natural enemies.....

Another cute moment in Café "the last Drip"

Another gesture study made into a cute small thing. <3

I know that the animation studio wanted to desexualize the female characters in Arcane as much as possible which as a radical feminist I can appreciate. But as a Sevika fan, taking away the chest tattoo boob window crop top combo is actually really fucking unfair to women

Ok, so in Spiderman into the spiderverse, George Stacy looks like a skinny short old man and Gwen's Peter looks like Peter B Parker but skinnier and definitely not in Gwen's age.

Now, in Spiderman across the spiderverse, George is a middle-aged, tall with more weight man and Peter a short, really skinny teenage boy.

How did they changed?

My theory is that the first ones was how Miles imagined them.

When Gwen told her story, Miles imagined her father being one of the classic comic cops and Peter like the ones he already knew. Brown hair from Peter B Parker and skinny and fit body from his dimension Peter. Also, the place Peter died was different from the place Gwen saw him dead in the first movie.

So, that's how they changed. It was Mile's perspective vs Gwen's perspective.
