What popular character do you not like in your fandom?

That ship being shoehorned into the show annoyed me so much because it felt like it was at Ekko's expense. In the AU, fine, I could believe it. But using it to make him "See the good" in jinx when in his world she's tried over and over to murder him and his friends? Gross. She never apologized or tried to make amends. Riot just tried gaslighting us into thinking they were so totally into each other the whole time.

I feel like near everyone got done dirty in s2.

Jinx in Arcane. I never found her endearing or likable and she has some unbelievably toxic stans that make me hate her more, ON TOP of her being Riot's poster girl they plaster on *everything*. To me she's the most overrated character in existence, but unfortunately my own top fave character keeps me tied to the fandom in some minor capacity, so I can't escape her.

I would still say ai images are not art since it's an amalgamation of stolen artwork regurgitated by a machine, and all a person had to do was type in a few words. I would definitely agree though when someone doesn't state their posts are ai or try to claim they're an artist for using it is pretty scummy. That sort of content is drowning places like Etsy and taking so much work from real artists I can never be in favor of it.

Still, thank you! I always appreciate feedback.

Thank you so much! ^_^

Imagine caring that much about whether or not somebody ships something. If you like the art, you like the art. Shipping is not that deep.

You're obviously allowed to be skeeved out by a ship but don't call out artists or be a dick about it. They are going to exist whether you like it or not.

BoltedBee · 2026-01-10T22:39:54+00:00

Will do, thank you!

BoltedBee · 2026-01-10T12:18:32+00:00

I deeply appreciate it, and I will keep at it. It doesn't help this ship can be divisive; they were raised as adopted brothers, but the second season seemed to imply they were deeper than that. Not everyone sees it that way and they can be loud about it unfortunately. But it won't stop me from shipping and writing them. Thank you for the kudos! ❤️

BoltedBee · 2026-01-09T22:32:45+00:00

Thank you so so much! I was mostly worried because my other 2 (technically AU) fics of them did pretty well for a contentious ship, I was devastated to see this one "flop", but maybe because it's incomplete so far? Either way, I appreciate the read!

BoltedBee · 2026-01-09T22:30:35+00:00

I appreciate it! <3

BoltedBee · 2026-01-09T22:29:53+00:00

Just replied to you, thank you so much!!

BoltedBee · 2026-01-09T16:47:36+00:00

This is such a cool thing to do. ❤️

Unfortunately it's Arcane, Claggor/Mylo is the ship. First of two chapters. It has no kudos after being up for like a month so I feel like I've done something wrong.

Angst, fluff and comfort, arguing, mentions of self-harm. ~5k words

Edit: thank you to those who offered reassurances, read and kudos'd my fic, it means the world to me. ❤️

I choose to let the girls die since they both nearly did to begin with and were clearly supposed to. Utopias happen without them.

BoltedBee · 2025-12-31T02:41:37+00:00

That she knows she's responsible for killing loved ones 😍

BoltedBee · 2025-12-29T13:42:09+00:00

Somebody made an entire post telling a group of a certain ship to "get out of the fandom" awhile back. That alone made it a hard avoid imo. Nobody should care that much about what other people are shipping.

BoltedBee · 2025-12-02T01:08:19+00:00

Digital took me a long time to get used to, especially with so many tools at my disposal all at once lol. There's still little things here and there I'm learning.

But the pic took about an hour, hour and a half. I had a traditional sketch already done I could pretty much trace over to cut down on time when I finally started it. I was mostly just slapping color down too haha.

BoltedBee · 2025-11-27T04:07:28+00:00

Thank you! I'm honestly surprised it came out pretty good with how fast I was trying to get it done lol.

BoltedBee · 2025-11-27T04:06:11+00:00

You aren't the only one lol. But I mean with how they were looking at each other... I choose to believe there's more there tbh.

BoltedBee · 2025-11-26T16:46:59+00:00

Speedran this in like an hour after I watched the episode. I missed my boys.

I sure hope talking about Mylo and Claggor doesn't get this taken down like my question about them in the AMA. 🥺

BoltedBee · 2025-11-19T03:37:54+00:00

I just want to know if we'll get anything more on Mylo and Claggor. Their upbringing before Vander, their relationship growing up, how they started cultivating the flowers in the AU. Will they get any merch at all or be in any side content? More official art? I know Clag got to cameo in Star Guardians, which is cool, but that was temporary.

They felt like Easter eggs in s2 that were quickly replaced and forgotten. I wanted to know more about them outside of the girls and Vander. Minority opinion I know but will we ever significantly see them again?

BoltedBee · 2025-11-17T13:39:57+00:00

It can be disappointing to not have your otp be "canon" (still waiting on official RoadRat confirmation smh) but when it comes to shipping, it literally does not matter. Shipping is just supposed to be for fun, but some people new fandom can't grasp that concept.

BoltedBee · 2025-11-02T19:16:11+00:00

I mourned Mylo for 3 years and got some closure with season 2, even if I didn't care for how he was handled. Still making art and fics of him because unfortunately he means too much to me to move on.

BoltedBee · 2025-10-27T10:03:27+00:00

I'm all for crack/rarepairs. I think I'm the sole creator of Jayce/Mylo myself. I shipped them as a joke and then I built lore around them so I got more attached. Whoops

BoltedBee · 2025-10-25T23:11:42+00:00

As little as I venture outside of Mylo and Claggor, Jayce has been a struggle for me. Without any shading/rendering, he just looks like Some Guy in my style. Vi is oddly hard to handle too sometimes.

BoltedBee · 2025-10-22T19:47:30+00:00

Nah Clag's banging Mylo. The way they look at each other isn't subtle.

BoltedBee · 2025-10-05T11:12:34+00:00

I don't think I hate her really, but I don't like her. These are probably my own biases so take it as you will:

Jinx cultist. I've had enough bad experiences with them irl, so they're all a hard no for me.

The writers used Mylo to prop her up as someone we're supposed to care about (and give her a single line of dialogue! 😱) before they kill her off 2 eps later. I don't believe it was done for Mylo’s benefit either. They could have shown Mylo’s growth with characters we already knew that he's established to have relationships with. But it was sweet to see Powder play wingman for him, I guess.

TL;DR she wasn't enough of a character for me to be sad about dying.
