jayce enduring a symbolic rendition of viktor's trauma is so painful and so, so clever.
being stricken down and immobilized through sheer accident or, in viktor's case, a cruelly random quirk that caused his disability.
then physically dragging himself from the lowest level of zaun to piltover, much like how viktor spent his youth reaching toward the promise piltover offered, but only if he could "pull himself up by the boot straps" and get there on his own. socioeconomic forces working against him be damned.
i appreciate arcane reminding us of viktor's origins - the reason he is so called to help people and, eventually, save himself - and putting jayce through the ringer - the contrast between he and viktor's lived experiences is front and center throughout season 1. the writers send jayce, and the audience, on a grueling journey to contemplate those experiences and how they've manifested in these intertwined characters.
I am creating this post on behalf of my dear friend Engy Shaheen. Engy is a third year university student in Gaza and a choriocarcinoma cancer survivor. She is currently in remission and she still needs medical care. Due to the total collapse of the healthcare system in Gaza, Engy is no longer able to receive medical care or obtain medication.
Due to the total destruction of every university in Gaza, Engy was no longer able to finish her last year of education either. Her home was destroyed and now her and her family are displaced. Engy wants to raise funds so she can leave Gaza to finish her education abroad, and so she can receive remission treatment and medication again.
Despite everything Engy has endured, she chooses to volunteer by organizing activities for the children in Gaza.
**Engy’s fundraiser has been vetted by me through the community process of vetting with Pali Pals on IG**
CURRENT & OVERALL GOAL: €4,785 / €15,000
Engy has only received 185 donations in two months!! She has a total goal of only €15,000! Please donate, share & help this reach people who can help Engy! You can donate to Engy & read more of Engy’s story using the link below:
