Watching Arcane is torture. Rewatching it is especially cruel.

But the realisation that as Ekko jumps into battle, we get more confirmation that Jinx's cloak is one of the sheets she put up in her lair for Isha, and that the first lyrics to Come Play are 'you're not alone' symbolising yet again that she's got both of them at her back in this fight....

Just hand me the shovel. I'll dig my own grave

I've seen people say that Jessica doesn't care enough about Gwen. That she didn't do anything to help her. But the truth is, Jess was the only parental figure Gwen had. Willingly.

I am not saying that she was like a mother to her, no. That is not true.

But she cared enough to be present in Gwen's life. The only adult who spends time with her. Who checks on her. Who acts a little bit like a parent.

She drew a line.

She wasn't Gwen's mother, but neither just a mentor.

Jess helped her more than any other adult ever did.

And she cares.

And if anyone says that Jess didn't, I'll just let those here. Just in case

"She does care about Gwen"

"Jessica's care and concern about Gwen..."

"Just to make her happy"

Your opinion?

A load of people sort of view Jude as being kind of mean and grumpy a lot of the time and I do agree she doesn't have that natural humour Cardan has and can be overly sarcastic (which I absolutely LOVE about her, she has the best roasts 😭) I feel like these consumptions are wrong.

Jude is actually so nice. She is kind and a nice person especially towards humans because she's mortal herself. There's a bunch of examples of this throughout the series including when she saved Sophie in tcp, chose to help Taryn and her hanging out with the court of shadows when we get to see her friendly side shine through. I feel like we make her "meaner" side a bit too dramatic sometimes as a fandom 😭

The Problem with Miles and Gwen

Absolutely nothing! They're perfect individually and together!

Thank you for listening to this essay.

When I look back and remember how excited and happy I was when the first pic was released right before ATSV. I thought they're gonna end up together in the second movie and I was freaking out. Now I'm freaking out again but for different reasons. They somehow managed to break up before they even started dating.

Pretty much how that's gonna go, right?

I miss them

(Odysseus steps out of his chambers in Ithaca. Sees a bone.)

Odysseus (scratching his head): That's the sixth one this week. Athena.

Athena (appearing): Yes?

Odysseus: I thought all the suitors were dead.

Athena: They are.

Odysseus (points at the bone): Then do you know who keeps leaving these? Are they a kind of threat or something?

Athena (in realization): Oh, those! No, they're not threats. Those are from Ares.

Odysseus: What?

Athena: He's a fan of yours now. That's how he says he likes you.

Odysseus:...by leaving bones?

Athena: I can call him over here if you want.

Odysseus (quickly): No that's okay--(fails to stop her)

(Ares appears and waves)

Athena (to Ares): He's curious about the bones you keep giving him.

Ares (sadly to Odysseus): You don't like them?

Odysseus (unsurely): N-no, they're great. I just...wanted to know who to thank.

Ares (happily): Good, because I've got more for you!

(A pile of bones drops into Odysseus's arms. Ares waves again and vanishes.)

Odysseus: Do you know why this is his way of showing approval?

Athena: I try not to ask.

Oak: How can I express my love to Wren?

Cardan: Kiss another in front of her

Oak: ....

Cardan: It works 👌🏼

Oak: *thinks about his sister's happy marriage*

Oak: On my way 🏃🏽‍♀️

Sam: "What's with the girls and make up? Like, seriously, they are so fake! How insecure about boys they must be to use it!?"

Jazz: "Aren't you wearing mascara, lipstick and eyeliner?"

Sam: "..."

Sam: "I don't know what you are talking about. It's my natural look!"
