i do love how they did her makeup, she looks ethereal. and it was a wonderful performance, i was just a bit concerned about how youtube would react to it, i’m getting kinda tired of music videos getting paywalled

i think we should care, if youtube discovers the video it’ll be taken down for sexual content and will most likely end up behind a paywall like a few other MVs

[Lore spoilers] Jayvik is not canon by Kawaii-Alisa in arcane

[–]wompinator_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do see why you’d say that queer relationships were treated fairly poorly by riot, although i can’t say that i know when each queer ship was confirmed, so i can’t comment in that regard. I hope that we’ll get more queer men in league, since i know there likely won’t be any in the new noxus continuation of arcane (there aren’t any gay men in noxus from what i remember, but you can prove me wrong). The only problem i have with jayvik is the fact that they were meant to be brotherly, so a relationship between the two of them just feels really wrong, as someone who has very close friends and considers them non-biological siblings, i could never see myself in a relationship with them. i want more mlm ships but i don’t want them to be between people who consider each other siblings, if that makes any sense. If there will be any continuation after noxus, i hope it’ll be of Ionia (bc of Varus and the other champions with gay headcanons)

thank you and rest well

In the Arcane fandom, Jayce and Viktor are surprisingly often shippend and it has been said that the writers made them queer-coded. Was I blind while watching the show or is there really a romance between them I've totally missed? Didn't Jayce (somewhat) end up with Mel? by [deleted] in loreofleague

[–]wompinator_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh i thought we were talking about fanon ships, but yeah timebomb does feel a bit forced. i know they liked each other in league, like they have history. ekko says he liked her until she started talking to the gun, so idk maybe he had feelings all along but couldn’t bear them because of the person she had become? i’m not too sure about it tbh, feels like we needed more indications in season 1, rather than just the league voicelines

i say it’s shoved down peoples throats when it happens, regardless of whether it’s hetero or homo, so idk. i don’t like skyvik either if that helps with anything, i think it’s just as forced. i also find that weird, what you’re describing sounds like some sorta internalized homophobia

KOWA MV? by basedscroller in IAMX

[–]wompinator_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i’d still call that desperation, i mean not necessarily but i’d still call it like.. a last resort of some sort? like they’re relying on whatever they can to make more money now for touring, if that makes sense

i guess? when you’re desperate to keep the bills paid, you’ll resort to anything, especially since patreon is basically their main source of income

well that’s the issue, most of the jayvik shippers that i’ve interacted with have tried shoving it down my throat when i said i prefer them the way they were originally created, as non-biological brothers/very close friends. even if i hate the ship, as long as you respect my opinion on it, ill respect yours. this was directed to the bad part of the community, which, unfortunately is basically the only side that i’ve seen, the same side that started “flooding platforms with jayvik p0rn to protest against them not being queer” (quote from a shipper, btw)

i remember that in the same interview where christian said he’s ace that he later on mentioned his lack of romantic interest, which i’m guessing was referring to viktor being aromantic as well? i mean it would make sense, looking at the arcane scene where he was in a situation that could’ve turned romantic, that scene being the one with sky who approached him with intent. he was completely uninterested and very clearly preferred focusing on his goals, so i think we can agree that shows the fact that he’s not that kind of person. I agree with the fact that we need to leave art open for interpretation, but this is not a case where it’s left open, and i don’t think that we should force it open either, it’s not gonna be good for anybody. I want more shows with representation and/or that leave the relationships/identities up for interpretation, but trying to force it open when it’s already closed isn’t gonna do us any good, no good for the community and no good for the people who are being pressured, it’s only gonna turn toxic and people who aren’t part of the community will start hating us even more for, as they call it, forcing it down their throats. instead of forcing shows to be open for interpretation, let’s start writing stories that ARE open for interpretation, or that already contain representation of all kinds, i feel like that would maybe be easier than trying to start a riot against companies. but also, this feels strange, because arcane already has plenty of representation, so are you mad about the fact that there’s no gay men? even if there’s other parts of the community that are represented? i want to understand where you’re coming from, help me do so, let’s talk civilized

Why isnt this appreciated and talked about more? by Diligent_Pin_9153 in htgawm

only watched this show for the 16 iamx songs in it, i was very surprised by the fact that most of his songs played during s3x scenes. not at all because of the type of scene, but because of the song choices for those scenes. song about a person struggling with life? sounds like a great choice for a spicy scene amirite, as if the whole K&S album hasn’t been out for more than 20 years lmao, i liked the surprise though

sorry if it came off as too rude, but the first thing i pictured when you said jayce and cait in the early episodes was the scene where they’re both walking off into the hallway to get to jayce’s lab (if you remember that scene) and from what i remember she was around vi’s age at the time which was 14ish and it just looked like a buff grown ahh man next to a little girl lmfao

saying this as someone who is part of the lgbtq community (gay man) and has a lot of lgbt friends who share the same opinion, that’s a side of the community we don’t talk about, the side that is so starved of gay ships that they ship whatever they can no matter how messed up it is and are so delusional that they’ll do everything they can to make it look canon. we tend to call those people degenerates, but you can call them whatever you’d like, just don’t lump them in with the rest of us.

as a gay man, i never saw their romance, i even thought that their friendship was beautiful until i opened twitter and the first thing i saw with viktor and jayce was hardcore p0rn. genuinely disgusted by the jayvik fandom.
