MAJOR SPOILERS FOR ARCANES ENDING BELOW:
Now, this is off topic for my blog but I'd like to shed light on something.
Arcanes ending. Namely the end of Jinx's character arc is what I believe to be one of the finest pieces of writing in the modern world with no exception. When Jinx is born at the end of 103 we see what happens to someone who heals wrong, we see the kind of monster they become when they aren't nurtured and given a proper environment to heal in. Powder becomes a monster known as Jinx who goes on to commit multiple acts of terrorism against Piltover. The way she feeds into this idea of being a monster as a way of lashing out at the pain she's felt from being "abandoned" by Vi is so incredibly realistic and relatable that it begs the question what has happened in the writers lives that allow them to understand such a transformation so thoroughly.
Then, at the end of season 1 we see Powder/Jinx finally embrace her new self with no more qualms about her identity, truly and finally one. Without any need to hold back anymore, she does something truly unforgivable and without redemption in the form of 9/11ing Piltover. Even in this moment though, she screams and cries in pain at how her old life is well and truly gone. The emotional turmoil of what she's done and what she's doing is too much to handle. To violently tear a new life out from the broken and beaten body of your old one is something no soul should have to do, but she does, and she makes it relatable.
Once we see her again in season 2, she has become much more lucid and comfortable in her own body as Jinx, the hallucinations have subsided for the most part and her inner turmoil is appropriately dealt with. Additionally she has a goal in mind now, she's chosen who she is and she knows what she wants to do: Kill Vi. The new life she has built for herself is purposeful, deliberate, no more a mish mash of two clashing ideals.
She wants to solidify her role as a monster once and for all, which ends in an epic battle between her and her sister, and at the very end of the fight right before she's taken out for good? A single soul sees the value in her life and risks everything to protect her. A child. Everyone, even Jinx is shocked by this because how could anyone ever love an ugly, broken thing like her? Let alone risk their life for her? The shock this instills in everyone buys Jinx enough time to escape with the kid, Isha. Imagine performing such horrible, inconceivable actions with no remorse and being full of such hatred, and then one person decides you're worth it. Just one person decides you are worthy of love and that they do love you and want you around. Can you imagine how that would shatter your world view? Being full of such self hatred and hatred for the world around you only to be shown warmth even in those times? This is exactly what happens to Jinx.
When we see her next, some time has passed, and she's even begun to drop the name Jinx. Her new friend, Isha, and her have begun a new life together and they look out for each other. The way Jinx describes her new life is "like I'm looking through glasses, except I can't tell if everything's blurry or clear." And what's clear to us as the audience is that Jinx is FINALLY healing. She is finally beginning to find some peace after all she has been through, and all it took was ONE soul, one singular person to love her even after all she had done. We go on to see her reunite with her sister, and somewhat with her father. We get to watch her slowly rebuild the life that was stolen from her and reconnect with those she lost, and those she hurt. This represents hope and change, rebirth and love, that maybe your sins aren't who you are. That you can change and love and be so wonderfully you with those who love you!
Isha dies. Isha, Jinx's anchor to the world, dies protecting her. Yet again Jinx loses everything. Her father is taken from her yet again in the process and the exact trauma that shaped her into Jinx is entirely recreated. Except, this time? There's no insanity. There's no hallucinations and mania. There's no rage or hate or flames or explosions or chaos or screaming. It's just sad. Nothing but sorrow fills Jinx up as she loses her one and only friend. She intends to kill herself at this point. She looks back at her life and sees how everyone she gets close to dies, gets hurt, or she in some way is preventing from being happy. That she alone is the perpetuator of a cycle of violence that has plagued her families lives for years and years. So she decides to give them closure. She tells Vi she can stop feeling bad for being happy and move on, she tells Cait she didn't know her Mom was in the explosion, and she leaves. Nothing more, just leaves. Doesn't tell anyone what she's going to do, she just does it. The intense guilt she feels is palpable in every breath she takes, it's clear she just wants to quietly leave this world without hurting anyone, just this once. Then the time finally comes, to end her life and finally be free of it all. Only to be stopped. One more remnant of her old life comes back and convinces her to stick around a little longer. Somehow, she agrees, but we all know that this is only temporary. The guilt someone feels after doing something so terrible, so unforgivable, can't be cleansed by a single conversation. She hates herself and just wants to stop hurting people, but she still has a small spark, something in her that has hope she can do good. So she delays her death to try one more time to be kind.
Next we see her, she's got a new look and is fighting alongside Vi, instead of against. She acknowledges their connection and at a pivotal moment, takes the fall. She saves her sisters life and "sacrifices" herself in the process. At the very last moment, she understands that there's another way out of her pain and hurting everyone around her instead of dying. She fakes her own death to everyone and escapes the country quietly. She tells no one and quietly escapes, with everyone having the closure of her death.
No more chasing her, no more thinking of what she might be plotting, no more hoping the old her will return. It's just over.
Her final action in Arcane is one of kindness, and healing to those she hurt. It is not redemption, but it is understanding. She accepts she is a bad person and may very well still hate herself, however she at the very least opens herself up to a new life far from those she hurt. And I think that's beautiful.
Anyway this is just my personal interpretation of the ending, I'm open to new ideas and down to discuss though! Btw I didn't proof read this so if it seems messed up anywhere that's why.
I saw a Fairy Tail AU, and thought “Wow, I can make that hurt a lot,” so here’s my own version.
Celestial Mage Tubbo has been pretty much raised by Celestial Spirit Wilbur and is best friends with Celestial Spirit Tommy. The two are the closest thing to a family he has.
(The Zodiac Spirits are replaced by the Chinese Zodiac, for reasons. Wilbur is the rabbit, Tommy is the dragon, Techno the pig, Schlatt the goat, ect)
At some point, he finds himself invited to the widely known Esempi Guild, run by Guild master Dream, which has a bit of a disaster-prone reputation, but eh. He’s always been the type to give out chances. So he goes.
Anyway, what this basically amounts to is the scene where Lucy has to break Aquarius’ key to summon the Spirit King, but it’s Tubbo with Wilbur’s key, forced to sacrifice the only parental figure he’s ever known to summon Philza, the equivalent of the Spirit King, knowing he’ll never get to see him again.
Extra angst in the option of him later trying to make Tommy made enough to leave him, because he knows that the other Spirit is torn between going back and finding his brother, and staying with his best friend, and decides it’ll be an easy decision to make if Tommy hates him-it’s not like it’d be undeserved, since he just destroyed Wilbur’s key.
Cannot believe Floyd promised his infant brother that he'd come back for him, after watching all of his other brothers leave. And then years later a brother did return to the tree and it wasn't fucking Floyd. I'd be on the goddamn news.
small 4&8 comic thing
im sorry we are expected to believe that RAY walked out on his wife and kid???? you mean Raymond 'Best and Nicest Guy Around' Chestnut abandoned his child???? i think the fuck not He Would Not Fucking Do That Shit
AU where history gets super messed up due to an Inbetween traveler. Why? Dunno. Possibly because the Inbetween wants revenge, or is trying to lure Karl back, not sure yet.
Anyway, George’s history is one of the ones messed with, and XD, who even after all these years continues to think fondly of Gogy, is less than pleased with that.
So he recruits a bunch of people to fix it. Karl, who at this point has long outlived his friends and now lives fully in the Other Side, tending to things. Connor, an immortal who’s seen eras rise and fall and remembers them all. Ghostbur, who has a passion for writing down history and spying, with his ghostly abilities. And a young Ranbob, before they ever even discovered Dream, who is incredibly experienced in organizing libraries of information and getting stuff done.
So all these people have to work together and go and A, fix history to how it was before(Karl and Connor), B, properly record it(Ghostbur and Ranbob), and C, stop the Inbetween time traveler so that they can’t continue messing with it(All).
I’m not sure who the Inbetween traveler is yet. I want it to be somebody from the Smp, but I’m not sure who yet. Tommy? Niki? Ranboo?
Either way, the Inbetween will have completely wiped their memories of who they were, and basically anything else that would lead to them disobeying. All they know is doing as they are ordered.
The team eventually ends up recognizing them, and trying to save them from what the Inbetween has done. At some point they succeed, and get a new member, and the Inbetween starts throwing distorted monsters from it’s realm at them instead, determined to ruin what they’ve managed to do so far.
Throughout all of this, XD is grumbling, and basically just being mad about it while they do this. He does provide them with a small world and items though, so they can get it done.
