One of my favorite bits of League of Legends lore is the discrepancy in Jayce's and Viktor's wiki bios in regards to their relationship with each other. In the game lore, Jayce and Viktor worked together at the Academy but became enemies after a series of events (several disagreements, Jayce tried to kill Viktor, long story).
Anyways Jayce's bio states that he and Viktor were friends but had a falling out and are now enemies. Meanwhile Viktor's details that while at the academy he hated Jayce so much and could not stand his Piltover arrogance. After working together Viktor gained a mutual respect for Jayce, but still didn't like him, and after a series of events now considers him his enemy. And like, yeah. Jayce would assume he and Viktor were friends while Viktor clearly disliked him. That's just Jayce's character. And Viktor would go through an entire arc where he gained an understanding for Jayce even if Jayce was unaware it was happening. I just picture:
Viktor: You know Jayce, I understand we had our disagreements but I realize now you have many valuable insights to provide to the world of science. I am sorry for disregarding you.
Jayce: We had disagreements?
Viktor: Yes... I called you a flamboyant Pilte several times.
Jayce: Oh, I just thought that was a compliment.
Viktor: I was constantly trying to get you removed from our shared projects.
Jayce: I assumed you were looking out for my mental health, making sure I wasn't overworking myself.
Viktor: I would purposely give you uncaffeinated coffee so you would be too tired to stay late and allow me to work in peace.
Jayce: Which I appreciated. Really helped me break my caffeine addiction, and now I have a normal sleep schedule. Thanks for that!
Today's theory: Caitlyn's grandmother was a pirate!
Okay, okay. Hear me out.
In the brothel scene, Vi tells Pim that Caitlyn's name is Matilda. Caitlyn then blags her way through this by going "My parents named me Matilda, after my great grandmother Matilda, the, uh. Pirate."
Obviously, that's Caitlyn just making something up on the spot, but we know that her family is originally from Ionia, which is based on southeast Asia.
Well.
It just so happens that one of the most prolific pirates of all time was Zheng Yi Sao, who was born in China. Her nickname was The Pirate Queen.
At the height of her power, she had over 400 ships in her fleet and employed around 70,000 crew members. To give you a sense of scale, Blackbeard had 5 ships with around 300 pirates in his fleet.
Now, let's go back in time through the Kiramman portraits to Caitlyn's great grandmother, seen here.
We can see her sitting on a chaise lounge. In front of her, there's a ship in a bottle. Directly behind her, there's a bow (a little nod to the fact that Kirammans have always been sharpshooters), and in the background, there's more ships.
The ships in the background are very important, because these are three mast ships, also known as barques. This type of ship was the most popular type of ship during the golden age of piracy!
So basically. What I'm saying is. Caitlyn's great grandmother was a pirate, and not only was she a pirate, she was Runeterra's version of the most successful female pirate of all time.

☆ 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱: no
─ keeps stealing your sweets
She knows it annoys you, so that's mostly the only reason why she does it. It's either you or the sweets. She chooses the sweets over you any time 😔
─ lets you braid her hair
She doesn't get why you love it so much but knows that it's calming to you so she's not complaining
She also "secretly" loves it when you massage her head right before. Bro is moaning the whole time
─ you, jinx and isha are a small family
It didn't take long for Isha to see you as her other mother. You didn't even have a word in it, she just claimed you, but you didn't mind. She's just a baby
─ gives you unexpected kisses
She usually scares you at first, laughs at your reaction and then kisses you on the lips or neck as a way to apologize, even tho she's definitely not sorry 💀
I bet Jayce and Viktor read each other's course reviews so they can filter out any insults for the other. Imagine:
Jayce: This student wishes you used the calendar feature on Canvas.
Viktor: Why? All of the due dates are listed in the Syllabus. I trust they can mange on their own.
Jayce: Sure. I guess.
Viktor: This student wrote 'Your class was lovely. Professor Viktor's was a nightmare. Divorce him and take the house and kids' in the additional feedback section.
Jayce: You know they probably wouldn't have said that if you used the Canvas Calendar feature.
Viktor: For the love of christ they can WRITE the due dates down THEMSELVES!
do you have any general ideas for what a yandere jayce talis x reader would be like
i have MANY thoughts about this. first of all i don’t think jayce would ever know he’s yandere. and i don’t think you’d recognize it at first either!! i think he’d be very protective after the attack on the council but not so much before hand. i think he’d be very trusting of you, honestly. i don’t think he’d ever be scared of you leaving more so of you being TAKEN. i’ll give some specifics bellow the cut
let’s start off with you and him in a viktor type scenario
you’re lab partners
i think this is where he would trust you the most
he knows you’re not scheming or anything like that
he genuinely believes you would never turn your back on him
(which means if you do it gets… bad. only time he’d get violent)
you’d likely be spending most of your time together early on(pre councilor jayce)
so he doesn’t feel the need to worry!
but after…
oh boy.
he would station guards outside your lab… just in case
one with you when you go to lunch too
ESPECIALLY if you’re publicly together
he would definitely not let you go anywhere by yourself
he would usually listen to you on matters, except when it came to hextech in weapons
he wouldn’t give a fuck lol
he’d have too much at stake
he’d definitely use his status on the council to manipulate you (not that he knows that’s what he’s doing)
he’d tell you “it would be so easy for people to target you without enforcers there! they’d do anything to get to me”
and you honestly can’t argue
which is what starts to sow anger in you
because your so used to being able to argue with him and that being your means of communication
but he’d just have so much power over you
you wouldn’t be equals anymore (not that he’d see that)
now if you were in mel’s position
i think he’d be a lot more protective and a lot less trusting
he’d definitely feel intimidated by your power and work to undermine that a lot
this is the only time i can imagine him using his physical strength to overpower you
it makes him feel better about himself
he’d probably try to force you to retire
especially after the attack
not because he thinks your incompetent!
but because he’s scared for you
he doesn’t even think HE should be a councilor after that LOL
he would probably try to bribe your guards for info on what you’re doing
just to keep tabs
he’d probably try to distract you from arguments with affection too
because he doesn’t like to argue with you anymore
he doesn’t want to be forced to see that you’re equals
even though he’d never admit if you weren’t
he’d probably want to take the relationship more public
so he could guilt you with it
because it would make you look bad if you broke up!!
very centered on looks in this scenario
he’d def dress you up a lot
very gilded cage core
would want to be married super quick
and have kids(if ur able ofc)
you have to continue great minds!!
anyway i think this one is worse
to say the least
either way, jayce is honestly not the worst yandere to end up with!! he’s probably the best in arcane at least.
This is REALLY different from what I usually post (I post mha/bnha stuff usually) but I've been seeing arcane actor au SO MUCH that I REALLY wanted to get involved and share some of my hcs abt arcane actor au.....
(most are of jinx lol, she's my fav)
(PS!! a lot of my personal hcs abt the actual characters outside of actor au are kinda scattered in here)
Jinx, Viktor, Silco: the actors for them are actually related, viktor being jinx's adoptive father and sil and vik being brothers, and vik originally auditioned for the part of "silco" because he wanted more scenes with his daughter (#spreading vik + jinx bff propaganda through actor au >:>)
Jinx: she's also a musician, and a lot of the music used in arcane are her songs, and after her part she got into making a lot more music bc she was more of a underground artist b4 arcane
Vi: was actually just a normal ass person who stumbled onto set one day by accident, and the directors loved her vibe so they gave her a part
Jinx: she was one of the few actors who didn't wear a wig, she just happened to have freakishly long hair and it worked out
Warwick/Vander: he's actor isha's father, because the original child actor for isha got too scared around him so they just used his daughter
Sevika, Vi: During the fighting scenes with the actor for sev and vi, they had to take so many takes because the two women would NOT stop actually hitting each other, they had so much trouble pretending to hit one another
Mel, Sevika: The directors actually planned on having sev and mel interact but the actors for the characters had a really dramatic and emotionally invested situationship in college and the two could NOT act around one another without being painfully awkward
Caitlyn, Vi: The actor for cait and vi started having dating rumours spread abt them after filming because they hung around each other so much (they were infact dating)
Viktor, Jayce: The directors didn't mean for vik and jayce to have to much romantic chemistry but the actors for the characters are married and they had so much romantic tension 24/7 so at some point the directors just gave up
Powder, Isha: The child actor for pow and Isha are actually really good friends
Finn: The actor for finn is also a voice actor for disney as well and he cannot go a day without someone teasing him for it
Jinx: The day the actor for jinx got her hair dyed she showed up in full Hatsune Miku cosplay
Jayce: The actor for jayce used to be in the military, so sometimes the cast will just find him sleeping like a rock in the most random and uncomfortable looking places (in the military they typically train you to be able to sleep in odd places)
Child!Ekko: The child actor for Ekko had a MASSIVE crush on the adult actor for jinx and he could NOT hide it (I'm not shipping child Ekko with jinx.)
Caitlyn: The actor for cait has dyslexia and was never really taught how to work with it so she constantly makes mistakes when reading off of the script, there's a bunch of bloopers with her just speaking gibberish n such (I am #projecting)
Child!Viktor: The child actor for vik cried SO much after filming any scene with Rio and he was so upset whenever he remembered that rio was just a prop
Child!Skye: The child actor for sky has a crazy thick aussie accent and that's why she didn't have any speaking lines
Viktor: The actor for viktor has a crippling caffeine addiction and he's literally stolen the coffee machine that the crew uses before
Jayce, Mel: The actor for jayce and mel are childhood friends
Jayce: The actor for Jayce is the biggest complainer, like he wears glasses but he had to wear contacts for the filming and everytime they were done filming he would be the first to speak always saying smth like "I fucking hate these things" while CLAWING at his eyes
Jinx, Viktor: The actor for jinx and vik are MAJOR workaholics
Jinx: The actor for jinx started getting into drawing after her time acting as jinx, because she had to draw SO much for her part
Ekko: The actor for Ekko's love language is physical touch, so much so that he's had like ten dating rumours throughout his career just because he's really affection with the people he's working with
Jinx, Powder: The actor for jinx and powder are crazy good at screaming, like scarily good. They didn't have to do any double takes in any of the scene were they screamed
Jinx, Isha: The actor for jinx and isha stole SOO many props after filming
Jayce: The actor for jayce has very warm body heat so there's so many photos circulating on the internet where the crew is just laying on jayce like he's a bed or a pillow, most are of vik, jinx and the child actors.
Sevika, Jayce, Warwick/Vander: The actor for sev is a part time wrestler and like I said the actor for jayce used to be in the military, and the actor for vander is just freakishly strong so sometimes the crew will just find them all on a mat wrestling each other like children for the hell of it
Viktor: The actor for vik almost got cancelled like a week into filming because he was caught saying faggot on twt and so he and jayce had to come out with the fact that they are infact married. (Dw I can say faggot)
Vi, Child!Vi: The child actor for vi and the adult actor for vi are cousins
Viktor: he obviously still uses a cain, but the cain that he uses when not acting is pretty light in weight, and the one they used for filming was like rlly heavy, so he just had a field day with it, he would playfully wack anyone who got too close
Child!Claggor: The actor for child Claggor is a surprisingly passionate debater, like he will sit down in the same spot for multiple hours just to prove a point of his
Jinx: The actor for jinx loves posting behind the scene stuff to her socmed, and she has so many videos of the adult actor for mylo just break dancing on set during breaks
Mylo: as stated in the previous hc, mylo is a part-time break dancer, but it's mainly just as a fun hobby
Claggor: The adult actor for Claggor is a part-time magician, and all the child actors ADORE him/p
Jinx, Powder: they both got a bunch of roles in horror movies after their time playing jinx and pow
Jinx: she has bpd and rlly likes that she was given the part to play jinx because of that
Jinx, Ekko: both stream together frequently, and LOVE reading fanficiton of themselves or the characters they've played. Jinx usually enjoys it more then Ekko (he usually gets a little flustered or playfully dramatically annoyed if he thinks smth is ooc)
Jinx, Powder: the actor for jinx and au powder are twins!
