Jinx, the Trailblazer of League Entertainment
Canon means nothing anymore and League of Legends new boy band has got me thinking. If all League of Legends champions were in a celebrity au, Jinx would be a superstar A-lister.
Nowadays League has virtual bands like Pentakill, KDA, True Damage, and now Heart Steel, but Jinx was very the first champion ever in League of Legends to debut with an exclusive music video.
Two years later she premieres with the first generation of the Star Guardians, a smash hit skinline that's sometimes treated like a TV show by League. Think live action sailor moon, but with an idol cast.
Later on Jinx it seems like Jinx took a break from the limelight, just appearing in commercials and brand deals here and there. But if you look at bands like True Damage, she literally left her mark in the music video. Whoever's her represeantation (and maybe Ekko's too) they used the Giants music video to promote Arcane two years before it came out. On top of that she gets invited to the Grammy's the same as Ekko despite not being singing any songs.Could she have been working as a music producer/executive/director(?) behind the scenes?
After more commercials and appearances Jinx finally gets her big break in prestige television that receives universal acclaim and awards. She didn't get the most screentime, but she and Silco get the lions hare of praise.
Later Jinx probably chooses to rest on her laurels in between Arcane and take on a new, less high pressure project in Cafe Cuties, which is treated like a real piece of media in Star Guardians (and maybe started as a book series). Jinx's like an actor who was in both a Marvel and Star Wars films when it come to Star Guardian and Cafe Cuties, though more girly pop. If League champions were celebrities, Jinx would probably be one of those that always has a project lined up.

I love "i would kill for you" ship dynamics but what about "i would stop killing" ship dynamic??
I would lay down my sword for you. I would change my nature and go against everything i've known. I would resist the easy way out of solving my problems. I would give up the adrenaline of battle to stay by your side and make tea instead. I'm not sure I know who I am without a weapon in my hand because I've had to fight for so long but for you I'm willing to try and figure this out.
It must be hard. To put down your weapon that's protected you for so long. It's allowed you to stay alive it's kept you from getting hurt--physically and mentally. Because you've never had to worry about a real relationship if you think you'll be dead at the next battle. And you feel naked without it and it feels like you're ripping off an extension of yourself. Are you even whole without it? Are you worthy of being loved if you can't prove it by risking your life? And yet they've found someone who's asking them for something much harder than dying in battle on their behalf. They've found someone who wants them to live. And that's much more terrifying.

Ghost Kitchen (brought to you by criminal entrepreneur, Red Hood)
Danny’s got the easiest job in Gotham.
He works as a fry cook at a shoddily-run, independent burger joint. Hardly anyone comes in, despite prices being criminally low, and portions insanely large, and while the manager looks like the average tough-as-nails ex-con, he lets Danny mess around in the kitchen whenever the place is empty. (Which is often. This place has to be the city’s hidden gem or something!)
Mr. Manager’s the only one ever there with Danny, except for sometimes when his buddies come over to smoke and play cards. Danny would find it shady, except part of his job is not to ask questions. Literally, he was told during the interview.
(It was a weird interview. Why would they need to hire someone who’s been in a gunfight before? Like, he has, but Gotham’s idea of “hirable qualities” is so bizarre.)
So instead he whips up some killer burgers with the frozen ingredients, and basks in the praise as the guys tell him he shouldn’t have, he does too much for this joint, ain’t that friendly!
Now, Danny’s a chef on the newer side. As a teen he’d preferred the look of Nasty Burger over anything with Michelin stars, and he only really took up cooking after Jazz moved out for college. But just like ecto-exposure used to turn the groceries sentient, Danny’s low-level ecto signature imbues all his food with something historically haunted Gothamites just love! And Danny’s never been one to half-ass a job when it makes people happy.
With fresher produce, real meat, Danny’s sure he can take his dishes to the next level. It takes a couple months of badgering, but his manager finally agrees to contact the mysterious store owner, who keeps the place going, despite profits Danny knows have to be in the red.
Danny spends the morning prepping. He pours his heart into his food, eager to impress. The big boss will be here soon, and he wants to prove that despite the dangerous location, this place has real potential!
It isn’t until the Red Hood shows up that Danny realizes he’s been working for a money laundering scheme.

(click for higher quality!) draconified link concept ive been chipping away at this past week ..... here's my funny little compendium concept for him:
"A heroic spirit has taken the form of this bestial dragon. Unlike it's kin, this creature exhibits an extremely aggressive disposition. It appears highly territorial, and will relentlessly chase down those who disturb its skywide patrols - of which it seems to be endlessly searching for either a long-time vassal or foe. Unfortunately, it seems the spirit within has long since forgotten exactly who it was looking for…"

Vows.
[‼️TRIGGER WARNING: Implied decapitation, blood. Discretion is advised ‼️]
It’s done! Yay! 3 days of work later, but super worth it!
Now- what is going on?? Well. Like the previous post, this comic takes place in a timeline in which the Lamb decides to willingly return the crown, resulting in their demise, yet find themselves brought back to life shortly after by the god of death himself. Why did he do it? What is he planning? What could he possibly need the lamb for? Why won’t he let them rest?
Hopefully all these questions will be answered in further updates (definitely simpler than this comic) but I’ll gladly take asks if anyone’s curious =v=
Sadly I still don’t have a name for the au—but hopefully I’ll settle for something soon! In the meantime I’ll just tag it as “vows to ash au” or smt like that. Until then!
Christ.
