I'm trying not to get too excited, but I just banged out (pun very much intended) 3800 words of fluff and smut for the next chapter. Add this to the 4k+ words I already had, and this chapter is 3/4 of the way done. I don't want to get too ahead of myself, but HOT DAMN. I might just get this one out as I planned this weekened xx

I am so early into this wild magic sorcerer playthrough but man these dialogue options could not have better encapsulated Jinx's personality. I'm so pleased.
I think I'm going to enjoy this.

Heads up: we trying to deep dive into writing & video games today, bc tomorrow I have a doctors appointment that's had me preeetty freaked out ever since I made it a couple weeks ago.
While the trouble concentrating w the flu is mostly gone now, I've been having some other concerning stuff going on health wise the last couple weeks keeping me occupied, and I'm going to be getting some tests done to hopefully get some answers to it all so um.
Positive thoughts & wishes please if you can? Yeh? 🙏💜

I want there to be some good end of season donuts (reminiscent of the 2018 ones) however I don’t know if I have faith in the Alpine or the Aston Martin to make it happen
This photo is iconic but it’s a pet peeve of mine that it’s edited to make all the cars face the same direction

and then there’s jinx’s line “but he didn’t make jinx. you did.”
and i keep seeing, like, videos trying to explain what she means by this as if jinx is implying that vi is the reason she’s Totally Crazy Now Guys (which she isn’t in the first place but,)
but the follow-up to this is so. like. you need to understand that powder is jinx is powder. “jinx” the person is just powder who grew up. we know this, we know this for a fact. take one rewatch of the get jinxed scene and look me in the eyes and tell me this not exactly the kind of person powder would have grown up to be. confident, happy, tinkering with her little creations and having a fantastic time doing it. inventing for the sake of inventing! she’s making the firelights in that scene. she doesn’t even conceptualise how to use them as a weapon until episode 7. she’s inventing for pure pleasure. the get jinxed scene is really good guys
BUT ANYWAY that line from ep 9, right? given how jinx follows it up with all of the ways vi has keep her going, it’s just... you can’t just take “he didn’t make jinx, you did” out of context.
what happened between them -- jinx thinking vi left her on that awful, awful night left deep scars in their relationship. but even that’s not enough to undo all the good vi did for her, when they were little.
“you never left. i always heard you.”
“your voice. pushing me. picking me up, when all the colours were black.”
and then, the biggest, most important one:
“you’re the reason i’m still alive.”
painful circumstances or not, vi gave her that name -- jinx -- and vi's voice was what she heard when everything was crumbling.
so like... yeah. vi made “jinx”. but that’s not a bad thing. it’s... complicated, like everything in arcane. vi hurt her, but vi kept her going. silco took her in, silco loved her, and for a long while she believed that was just it, but vi loved her first.

''guy becomes terminally ill and is suddenly hyper aware of how boring and underwhelming his life has been and starts making stupid decisions bcs of his inferiority complex and a need to prove himself'' can work, breaking bad managed it. walt is sympathetic for around 2 seconds but he immediately resorts to shutting out his large support network and rejecting help, turns to crime, consciously hurts and manipulates everyone around him, is all around completely fucking delusional, etc etc etc. the point of him and his story is very obviously and explicitly ''this couldve been avoided if he grew a spine and accepted help but the need to prove hes soooo smart won''
viktors arc fell flat for me bcs this is a guy whos actually genuinely been sidelined his whole life. he has not been complacent at all, hes had to work so hard and fuck around and break the rules to get to where he is because he lives in a society that thinks hes dogshit and doesnt want him to succeed. he wants to live longer so he can continue to help people. he only knowingly endangered himself with his hexcore experiments. sure pride is also a big part of it, but this show asking me to agree that ''the pride of wanting to live instead of accepting he'll never be a Great Scientist remembered for hundreds of years'' was his Big Sin just doesnt work for me, at all. i completely agree with him and i think hes 100% earned the right to be a little bit prideful and hold onto what hes built with a vice grip after dealing with everything hes dealt with
this is why i hope they let him get a bit more fucked up in season 2. if they want me to believe in the ''his pride will be his downfall'' angle and also agree that hes reaped what he sowed then have him start throwing other people under the bus to reach his goal instead of continuing to slap him around for, at this point, the crime of wanting to live. let him develop a martyr complex while hes like actively feeding people to the hexcore or something so it makes sense, or i'll seethe
if they do a possession arc ill be so mad lmfao. please let him go crazy and stupid on his own terms
