A good number of characters died over the course of Arcane, but thanks to the establishment of an infinite multiverse, not only can we go absolutely wild with the sort of romance we can provide in place of a tragic fate, it also means that nobody can tell us it’s not canon
Eliot’s x Sky
Both pining for their bosses each of which are too preoccupied with a certain hunky inventor, perhaps their late night conversations venting out their frustrations will lead to something more
Maddie x Madame Margot
One is a ruthless cutthroat master of seduction, the other is a kind and caring woman in way over her head and must learn the value of teamwork if she’s going to make it out alive. Their heads will spin (and others will roll) as they find out exactly which is which
Kino x Loris
We don’t have much to go off of, but the illusion seemed like it was pretty convincing and anyone who Mel looks up to has got to be cool af, which means he deserves a boyfriend who is chill af, more than that, Loris is loyal courageous, and perhaps the most important quality for Kino in a partner, knows when they need to ****ing bail
Grayson x Amara
Heading a personnel security for a successful merchant, Grayson soon learns that the threats are far more dangerous than she was warned, and that the fascinating woman she’s been protecting is more than capable of dealing with them herself. Years of facing the flood of corruption in the enforcers have exhausted her efforts to influence them to adopt her own strong sense of justice, but perhaps it can soften the knife sharp edges of this sorcerous spy
Smeech x Salo
……. I have no idea how this got in here, I must have entered a fugue state or something, but uh, good for them?
There's one charity that I haven't seen shared here personally, and that's Care for Gaza.
They're shared a lot on twitter as a reputable on-the-ground relief source. You can donate to their gofundme to help their efforts here.
Cap: scott, what's going on? Do you have a way to save everyone?
Scott, smiling: you do remember me!
as israel baselessly accuses palestinians of mass sexual violence again, i feel the need to remind everyone that white americans also made black and native people out to be animalistic rapists, not because it was true but because they were insanely racist.
this is a textbook colonial tactic that most people are unfortunately oblivious to. this is why looking back at history is important. emmett till is a good place to start if you want to see examples of this tactic.
but let’s also not ignore the countless palestinian men, women, and children who have been sexually abused and assaulted while detained by the iof for decades! their voices are rarely heard and their outcries buried by israel.
From the speculations I’ve seen exploring scenarios where Vi is transported to the universe in episode 7, I’ve seen two perspectives
The sad one; where her issues with guilt and self-doubt are worsened by a world that has everything she’s ever wanted and it’s the one where she died
And the happy one; where she gets to see who powder would have been, gets to see Vander and Mylo and Claggor
I feel bad that nobody seems to have realized the third funny perspective; that there are so many people there that she would reflexively punch in the face
Fennec: hey you look kinda familiar have we met before
Boba fett: no, I just have one of those faces. One of those many, MANY faces
"Birth is always horrible, God's gift to humans is he lets you forget it."
In light of barbenheimer I’ve been thinking a lot about what people who genuinely enjoyed both would like, and this is at the top of the list
Dandadan: the story of how a scrawny nerdy loser gains a friend group of popular good looking people, who all somehow have more gremlin energy than he does
Jinx’s entrance in the last episode is great because here you have Ambessa, yet again demeaning her daughter’s compassion and desire for peace with her ‘Wolf and Fox’ rhetoric, and now here comes Jinx, ready to kick ass in an airship with bunny ears
