Rewatching Arcane

I think what I love/hate most about the Arcane ending is that everyone got what they needed but not what they wanted.

Jinx needed to end the cycle, she’s been wishing someone could finish the job the whole series, she just didn’t want to go out a hero.

Echo needed to be a savior to help his people, he just thought it would be as a leader and not as a soldier.

Mel needed to prove herself as a Medarda, she just never wanted the acarne skills or the cost of her mother.

Jayce and Viktor in beautiful turn needed to be seen and understood. They found their own truths and destiny in each other, yet it destroyed them.

Vi needed family. She wanted the family she had back, instead she’s given closure for her loses and the chance to build a new one with a person she loves.

Caitlyn needed respect. She got it, but she now understands just how much it costs and just how heavy that crown is.

All of their endings satisfy exactly what they’ve wanted this whole show, just in a way none of them wanted.

A moment of peace cause honestly they deserved a bit more time to chill together after everything that happened

I like how Slay the Princess can either be the most beautiful story about betrayal and forgiveness, a literal horror game, or just a fu@king anime called “God Slayer” or something

It’s got them all, a jack of all trades

She's a lady and knows she has many fans.

I’m writing a fic where the consciousness inside the Hexcore turns into an actual person and now it’s all I can think about 🧍

They can sense it
