#Pre-launch

[mxhlon]

The early morning light was just trickling in, and Greer was out like a fuckin' light, snoring softly, like a cat's purr, though it was enough to stir him from a shallow sleep, drawing him up. Mahlon chuckled, shifting her form until she fell quiet, cheek burrowed into the pillow, back turned away from the sunrise. Greer was beautiful. She was concrete, solid and sure. Mahlon lingered until it felt weird to keep staring, and then he slipped out into the kitchen to boil water in the kettle.

"You're up early," he noted, rubbing the slumber from his eyes, finding Colton in the common lounge. "Or up late?" That was the more enticing option, and Mahlon raised his brows suggestively. "Want a cup of coffee? I'm puttin' the kettle on."

An Assistant's face right before they are thrown

[sage-nebula]

In season 1, Powder/Jinx was viewed by most as a screw-up, and a monster.

In season 2, Jinx will be viewed by most as a monster, and a revolutionary symbol.

In neither season did the majority opinion see her as a person. Those who did care about her as a person — Vander, Vi, Ekko (though he tried hard not to in arcs 2 & 3), and Silco, in that order — were heavily outnumbered by those who only saw her as the consequences of her actions, and not the eccentric, brilliant, but heavily traumatized and mentally ill girl she actually was.

There are some people who are angry that she is being seen as a revolutionary or peaceful symbol in Zaun. "It should be Vi!" they say. "How could they do this to Ekko?!" But here is what those people are missing:

Symbols are not people. They are iconography. A symbol can last long, long after its origin has died. Hence why doves are symbols; they can die fast, but their paintings last forever. This means that it does not matter at all to Zaun what happens to Jinx, in any way, once she is their symbol; even if she dies, that just makes her a martyr. Even better if it's an enforcer that kills her. (I could see Sevika arranging that.)

Jinx is just as alone now as she ever was. Symbols need to stay pure. Meaning that Jinx's off-color jokes and wild actions will need to be short leashed or she could risk losing that status. Even IF she feels this gives her community, she'll lose that real fast.

This is not the face of a girl who feels she is among friends:

And that is simply because she isn't. They don't know her. They don't need to know her. They need her to do her part (be the face on the murals, the martyr when we need it) and that's it. Jinx's action of blowing up the council was loved. But Jinx herself? No.

This is not an enviable position and it isn't going to benefit her, at least not in terms of her mental wellbeing. Jinx needs real unconditional love and support—what she got from Silco in his final moments, not the empty veneration of the masses who view her as an icon rather than a human being.

Hello! So first off I want to say that I am a very sentimental and sappy person.

That being said, I am so very grateful to everyone who has shown an interest in my funny little wolship! Just a few short months ago I was mortified by the thought of posting anything about my WoL, much less posting anything about my wolship but one day I seemed to have been hit by a remarkable spark of bravery and decided "fuck it, we ball". Ever since then I have met so many wonderful people in the community and it is not an exaggeration to say that I have very nearly been brought to tears over the kindness and support people have shown while I make my silly little (sometimes overly dramatic lmao) stories and gposes and I just wanted to say sincerely and from the bottom of my heart; Thank you.

My weepy little forward aside I wanted to mention that I have recently gone back and done a decent amount of housekeeping with some of my Erenvahl posts (including but not limited to: fixing some clunky dialogue, re-editing some of the shots, rearranging and folding in some sets that were previously stand-alone, and on one occasion completely retaking the entire set). And since I recently wrapped up their pre-Dawntrail narrative I figured I'd make a nice little consolidated post of them, partially for my own organizational purposes (and to link back to X'vahl's pinned dossier), but also if anyone wanted to go back and read it from the beginning now is the perfect time to do so! ♥
