Jinx - Blog Posts
I just post a little doodle, so it happens something here. It was Hazbinhotel last time, so it's time for a, can you guess it? JINX! She always makes me happy, even if it's me drawing her. I'm thinking I might start to try to colour my Jinx and Ekko drawings with watercolor. I tried colour pencils before, and that didn't work. Watercolor however have looked good when I splashed a little on my Angel Dust drawings. That was a lot of yapping for a little Jinx doodle. I hope you like her. I think she turned out cute.
my favourite stills that i took during act 1. a lot of great drawing potential here. i love how they captured the pure raw essence of a sibling fight
sooooo, arcane fans, how we feeling. anyone need a hug? a long cry? a therapy session? because damn. wow.
Ok so, I just looked on ao3 for any steb x jinx fanfic right and there's only 4, so I'm gonna write my own, it's gonna be called 'Live Wire' and here's a summary for it.
Summary:Steb never meant to get involved. But when a chance encounter in Piltover puts him in Jinx's path, he unknowingly sets off a chain of events that pulls him deeper into her world.
Edit:first chapter is out now
Update:up to chapter 15 now
THIS THIS THIS
watching arcane s2 completely fumble jinx’s arc genuinely made me so so upset, i’m still fucking mad about it honestly
I think I took for granted how good She-Ra is. Like it is a MIRACLE that a show like this exists, you know?
Idk, watching the Arcane finale and seeing it fumble the things it set up for itself in season 1, ditching complex and complete set-ups and pay-offs for cheap parallels that don’t always make sense; it made me realize how fucking lucky we got with spop.
There are a lot of incredible things about the show, about how pretty much every character in the show is queer, how trauma is represented, complex themes interweaved beautifully in a TV-7 rating show.
BUT
I feel like we as a ~ society don’t talk enough about the set-ups and pay-offs in the show. The fact that nothing in the show comes out of left field and how every piece of dialogue serves a function and sets the characters up. The characters in spop will never act out of character for a line, or to further the plot. Their consistency is incredible.
Let’s take Jinx and Catra for example. Jinx has complex mental health issues that were at the center of everything in szn 1, so she had a lot of symptoms and she was able to be messy and frustrating and realistic in her disorder. Then szn 2 came around and somehow her symptoms are mostly cured - which ok, we can chalk that up to Isha’s presence in her life, which yeah, her hallucinatory symptoms partly come back when Isha goes missing. Although, this would mean that they’re setting up that if Isha is not in Jinx’s life, then her symptoms would come back full force no?
Isha dies and there is absolutely nothing that pays off in terms of this little set up they did. Jinx becomes suicidal, but her other, more complex, more “able to ruin plot plans” symptoms disappear in its entirety. This is a character whose complexity is determined by what the plot needs to do.
Catra also has complex mental issues, and those NEVER go away for the sake of plot expediency, in fact, the plot baked Adora and Catra’s conflict in the center of it all from the very beginning. This means that Catra gets to act realistically all throughout the show and that furthers the plot. Catra doesn’t get rescued and all of a sudden her trauma goes away for the sake of redeeming her faster. Catra has not been healed at the end of the show, she is beginning to heal. She is allowed to explore the depths of her trauma and symptoms and instead of speeding through it, the show says - here, go down to rock bottom, get rescued and be unable to say thank you, get re-triggered by your abuser and run away at the very end of the show. And also, here are some characters that will call you out on your behavior, here is an emotional support animal, here, the person you love and have pushed away from, never hated you!! Her healing always feels like it’s a deliberate choice from Catra bc of what tools the show is giving her, not bc the plot needs to move forward now.
And in terms of set-ups and pay-offs. I mean…. It’s actually nuts. Characters’ dialogues literally bake themselves into other characters. Shadow Weaver tells Adora “Catra distracts you, confuses you” and Adora later tells Bow and Glimmer (after calling SW out btw) “I am distracted and confused and I cant be any of those things if this is going to work” which creates the final moments of the show.
Angella tells Adora “take care of each other” and Adora internalizes it as “I have to take care of Glimmer” bc of her trauma, and that leads her to be very controlling with Glimmer, which creates conflict in their relationship, which creates the heart of Etheria situation, which creates the Horde Prime situation.
SW tells Catra that she abused her bc Catra reminded her of herself. In that same episode, where SW’s past is explored, they both say “it doesn’t matter what I do, my authority figure doesn’t trust me”, we can see how Catra begins to emulate SW’s authority style throughout the show.
The show starts with SW telling Adora “isn’t this what you’ve wanted since you were old enough to want anything?” and it ends with Catra asking her “what do you want, Adora?” which sets up the conclusion of Adora’s entire arc.
Even little things, like Entrapta telling Wrong Hordak it’s ok to make facial expressions and Wrong Hordak being animated copying character’s facial expressions for practice after that.
ITS JUST SO GOOD THE WRITING IN THIS SHOW IS RIDICULOUS.

Jinx: “Fuck the police.”
Vi: “If you say so.”
I know I literally just posted but omg I have so many thoughts in my brain and my friend hasn't watched all of act 3 so I can't bother her.
But in episode 7, the song is so like... meaningful ig. Like the lyrics, I looked at it in English today and genuinely cried a bit cause it's them.
Like what do you mean 'but my best enemy is you"???????
Cause they are enemies in some ways but he still loves her and HOLY SHIT I love them
I am listening to the song rn and on the verge of years. It's so sweet like AAAAAAAAAHHHHH
I wasn't completely sold on time bomb at first. But after episode 7, I love them. They are my babies and I just want them to be happy!!!!!
And in spirit of that, here is a hand crafted meme by yours truly!

Also, not to be a downer but, that was it?
They said this was this season would be the end and would tie up everything, but then they put some sequel bait, jinx just sort of sacrifices herself and that's that (except don't really show IT). Piltover and zaun are ok with each other now because there was a war and now there's a zaunite in the council?. Jayce and viktor are gone (but not really). Viktor had his thing with magic and went from one side to the other, but the exploration of that was kinda lacking. Same with jayce, that segment should've been longer. And caitlyn joined the facist uprising, but we don't get that much fallout and exploration either, not even time for her to reflect on it.
It feels like there should've been at least 1 or 2 more seasons. Instead of cramming it and STILL put some bait at the end. Idk i just want for stories to have an ending and be their own thing. All in all it was fine, but far from what season 1 was.
