It's not a secret that I like to leave the scenes untouched, but there are some cases when I feel I should post a zoomed gif or a bigger one to get a better view of something I find interesting/pretty.

So, this is an extension for The Base Violence Necessary for Change, Part VII

Just out of curiosity if you could make a gif set or a single gif of vi running to caitlyn in “the boy savior” episode, I looked everywhere online and didn’t find anything 👀👉🏻👈🏻

ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: 1x09 - "The Monster You Created" ↳ "I thought maybe you could love me like you used to. Even though I'm… different. But you changed too. So… Here's to the new us."

I think one of the things that so mind-melting about Jinx is that they gave her this design and face-rig that makes her look extremely innocent, like she's a child, or drop-dead gorgeous.

and then they combined that with arguably the most violent and deranged character on the cast.

Now there's an obvious contradiction when it comes to 'innocent' and 'evil' but bcos of the connotation, especially in visual media, that beauty=good Jinx's qualities of 'beautiful' and 'evil' are also contradicting each other.

It creates this paradox that does stuff to my brain lol. Like 'an evil child' or 'creepy doll' it's an oxymoron to say this character who looks like a child/angel is actually a monster, a beautiful monster.

The only other time arcane messes with my brain when it comes to framing a character like that is Silco, I think. All throughout the show there's these shots that evoke religious imagery, like him giving shimmer to beggars or the baptism scene. I think this shot in the scene with Jayce also might count.

and all of those are also about subversions. Silco is evil and that's why portraying him with e.g. a light behind his head like a halo like he's a saint throws me off. It's like in the scene the framing/storytelling is trying to convince me he's a saint/savior of the undercity which is juxtaposed with his actions in the show. and then on top of that to add his head covering up the halo/sun with this head motion that signifies him rejecting Jayce's peace offer in his mind, representing hope being snuffed out. just *chef's kiss*
