couldnt get this out of my head
If u look like dis dm me 🤭
oh oh oh also when jinx is pricking silco he just clenches his fists even though she probably weighs 90 pounds he could throw her off his lap and she’s not restricting his movements at all but he can’t bear to ever hurt her ☹️☹️🫶
One thing I absolutely adore about “Get Jinxed” scene, where you have Silco coming up to her all angry, was that even though he was absolutely furious with her at first, he never lays a hand on her. When he walks up to her desk as she blasting the loud music, I’d assumed he’d grab her by the shoulder or something to get her attention, but he just shuts off the music. The closest thing he comes to is grabbing something out of her hand which is reminiscent to a father grabbing something that’s distracting their child in the middle of a lecture or something. He’s not perfect, and yes he has manipulated Jinx but in many ways, he cares for her deeply and would never do anything to hurt her.
I love how they frame this as your typical “angry father walking in on his daughter playing loud music” moment, but in this case the father is a powerful crime lord, and the daughter is homicidal psychopath who blew up a building and murdered 6 people just so she could steal a magic gemstone and build him a superweapon for his revolution.

i adore how arcane fans have unanimously decided that vi braided jinx’s hair when she was little and silco braids her hair when she’s grown up i love how it’s practically canon now not even debatable

the entire plot of arcane i guess
silco said power comes to those who are willing to do anything to achieve it and he wasnt willing to do anything to achieve it because he wouldn’t give up jinx my chest hurts
oh you think you like arcane? i play arcane episodes in my car and listen to them like podcasts while i’m driving
Arcane was really like here’s a fucked up evil guy who clearly has ptsd after his brother half drowned him. Here’s a fucked up girl who has abandonment issues and is traumatised from accidentally killing most of her previous adopted family. He adopts her. She ends up accidentally killing him (another adopted family member). He forgives her (after never forgiving his brother). I’m going insane
