"Vi saved Jinx but Jinx could not save Isha."

While we're here, let's talk about that actually. Slams my hate and anger on the table.

Let's TALK about how Vi and Jinx, and Jayce and Viktor keep saving each other just to live longer enough to HATE each other.

For the longest time, no since forever, Jinx has been unable to pull the trigger on her sister. She gets nervous any time anyone else points a gun at Vi. She holds on to Vi as a lifeline. No matter how deranged Jinx gets, she will never hurt Vi.

Viktor was also the person Jayce abandoned everything for in his attempt to try to revive him. Just for Jayce to go mad and do that.

I'm just. Why are these people always desperately doing everything that they can do for the sake of the other, just to lose them in the process? WHY?!

I think it would be really funny if the reason why Silco turned the last drop into this raging club was because that was his kind of scene when he was younger it used be work, rebel, and party 24/7 when he was in his 20s lol

eek chapter 5 of my darry fic in progress........ uh knee pain soda enjoyers here have a gift !!!

When Darry was 18, Soda tore his ACL riding saddle bronc. It was a beautiful show. Two seconds in, and the crowd was screaming with the violence and temper of it, the sharp, strong cuts of his brother’s body bucking in tandem with the horse; he was moving like water, an extension of the horse’s muscles rippling with sweat and the glint of May sun. Three seconds in, and Sodapop Curtis was riding the lightning, had it hooked underneath the spurs of his hand-me-down boots, teeth and jaw tightened into something so determined it looked like a grin. 

Ponyboy would say it was seven seconds in that Soda got bucked, body colliding with the ground in a rage of dust, but Darry knows it was less than five. It took Soda just a little more to uncurl himself from the ball he’d crumpled into, to wobble into standing once the pick-up man steered the bronc away; it took Darry less to scramble from his seat and vault the fence, Steve Randle on his six, to fist the fabric of Soda’s stupid rodeo get up, check him over. 

“I’m okay, Darry,” Soda had said. That stupid, stubborn grin. That look in his eyes. 

“You’re okay.”

Soda shuffled a step. Brought a hand to his mouth to stifle the cry; Darry could tell then that he was trying hard not to let anything out that sounded much more like a sob. Could tell then that it was bad. By the time Steve and Darry had gotten Soda out the arena, Dad had come jogging. Soda smiled some more. He nodded at his rodeo buddies and laughed when they told him he was tuff. Darry told Dad to get the truck. 

“Quit fussing, Darry,” Soda said, white knuckling the edge bench they had him sat on, face sweaty and pale. “Just a knock.” He was shaking a little. “Nothing’s wrong.”

i wish i was allowed to feel like i belong i was allowed to feel even barely Liked but my brain really only gives me 2 choices, 1 being believe you are hated and suffer the anguish from that constantly every second or 2 . for a split second trick yourself into thinking Maybe everything is ok. maybe i am capable of being liked n feel safe n maybe even happy only for the universe to go NUH UH

and punish me 2 prove me wrong in the most painful way possible

[hijinks-n-lowjinks]

I am in love with Ah-Duo, she’s so gorgeous and elegant and kind

[dors-ee]

Hmmm. No. I still don't take it as canon. I mean it actually isn't canon or truly official, but even if it was made canon and truly official by Riot, I still would reject it.

(Quickly :I am genuinely happy for those that liked it and love the fact they kissed btw! I'm happy for you you got something you like! Truly!)

I don't think they kissed. Like i reject the MV making them kiss and for me they didn't kiss. I don't think whether it was 1 or 2 days or a few weeks or a month, that they did anything. Not with the situation, not with their past, etc.

I prefer and think it better, where they don't kiss and where they know there's something, the love is definitely there, but don't act on it, in in a very very... idk. Conventionally romantic explicit way I mean. I'd rather have this realism, like in term of psychology, and this... I don't know. It is terribly romantic* too, whilst realistic. (* wide meaning including artistic/literary movement.).

For me, timebomb is romantic (wide meaning. encompasses the artistic/literary movement) and poetic, and not into stereotypical and conventional romantic gestures. Not yet I mean, for the MU. (one can be romantic/poetic and have conventional romantic gestures yes. Those are not exclusive in general. Depends how it's done and the context.) Because that's how it was made in canon and what fits their story and them for now.

Ofc in the future I wouldn't mind kisses and all. Would more than welcome them actually. It depends how it'll be done, but I would really more than welcome them in the future.

But right now, where they were in s2, it didn't fit. Even with notions of poetry and romanticism and conventional romantic gesture and personal preferences and thoughts aside I mean. It didn't fit. (psychology and characters and relationship developments and story and context etc )

We didn't need a kiss. (I can like kisses, and more, in pre war, in purely fanon exploratory stuff. But purely as a "this is imagination and fun to explore". My mind is open to exploration and fun. It's for what wants to pass as canon that I take issues with.)

If I go further and into more personal territory, it actually bothers me that one was made. I get it, for most people kisses are needed as a show of romantic love. Like I get it.

And i do acknowledge this is partially personal, why it bothers me that well. we got a more stereotypical conventional show of romantic love. But it bothers me. It feels like a "you all want a conventional show of love in the form of a kiss so here!" whether it truly works or not... It's what's expected so it's what is given.

and it does feel like fan service a little.

I don't like that there's a kiss and I don't want it and... whatever pple believe for themseleves, like be free of course (and again, genuinely happy for those that liked it), but it isn't canon. Like objectively it isn't, but again even if it was made canon by riot I would still reject it personally.

to summarize : I don't think that they kiss fits -where they were with their relationships, where they were individually in their development, the context of the story, psychology, etc.- and was even needed as a show or romantic feelings, like that is outside of personal taste and preferences and feelings I mean.

And ... well inside of personal taste and preferences I also do not like it. I do have a preference for romantic -wide meaning- poetic and not conventional romantic gestures but the love is still there everywhere type of dynamics. (which the mme mv did do and do so well and it has inspired and pushed me so much.)

Also, for me, where they where in s2, it is tentative. For me there is a knowledge and acknowledgement of feelings but no action. Things are still tentative, there's still an open wound, or several, plus the war looming over. They can't show overt big reciprocated gesture of affection yet. It is there but it can't flow freely yet.

I mean again, everyone is free etc etc. But bc everyone is free, i say nope. Not for me.

I am not saying it is a bad MV. I am saying not for me and I think it doesn't fit timebomb in canon to have kissed pre war. And I also as a personal preference prefer them to not have kissed.

(and yes, as a more general parenthesis and tangent: I will be picky about content. It's not bc we don't get a lot that we have to settle for anything. I saw this opinion recently and like no. No no no. We can be picky, we can expect, and demand quality. Actually we should. We can be grateful for what we got without being doormats. we should ask for quality, or we won't get it, if we just settle for anything.

I'm not saying this specific world collide mv is not quality. I am speaking in general. We can be picky. And we can demand better. We should actually, and not just with timebomb or arcane. Bc this sentiment "be grateful don't ask for more" i've seen it with other medias and outside of it and... no? we can and should ask for more and better.)

also : yes. it's not that serious in the end and it's just fiction. Doesn't mean emotions and opinions about it can't exist. But it's just fictional characters and fiction at the end of the day. I am aware.

And it's just a kiss, i'm aware of that too. Would I be sooo upset if it was made canon? no. Would i still reject it for me? yeah. but I wouldn't be upset.
