How to larp as an Arcane fan!!
TW: opinions
-Blame Ambessa for Caitlyn becoming a dictator, despite the fact Ambessa was a foreign leader with no real control over Caitlyn and the fact if Caitlyn was that easily manipulated by 2 sentences into making her gas a whole city then maybe she didnt deserve to be a military leader after all! Because obviously morally grey black woman = evil manipulator groomer predator and morally grey asian woman = misunderstood morally grey *buzz word* *buzz word* *buzz word* strong female ultra misunderstood queer 'femme' character
-Defend the absolute SHIT out of season 2 for absolutely DESECRATING Jinx's character!! (Dont jump me im all for jinx having a redemption arc but holy moly the way they did it in season 2...)
-Pretend to be a Vi fan and claim you understand her character but then praise THE BALONEY of the scene in which she, a victim of severe police brutality and abuse, bangs her cop gf in her suicidal sister's dirty cell (oh and her cop gf also happened to stick a weapon into her on numerous occasions)
-Say that Caitlyn KKKiramman gassed Zaun for the sake of the people of Zaun when she literally explicitely says herself its because Piltiver wasnt ready for an attack. Bonus brownie points if you praise her for eradicating shimmer when, despite its cons, season 1 literally tells us that its the undercity's main source of medicine and Caitlyn literally offered no alternative nor did she aknowledge that. Oh, and COMPLETELYYYY ignore the fact it's still being used by the elites after her attack anyways (fe: Salo)
-Actually, FUCK THAT!! DENY HER EVER GASSING THE UNDERCITY DESPITE THE LITERAL SCENES AND PROOF!! SAY THAT THE GAS DIDNT SPREAD AND THAT CAITLYN SOMEHOW AIRBENDED IT AWAY FROM INNOCENTS BECAUSE "PHYSICS DONT WORK IN ARCANE THE SAME WAY IT DOES IRL!! 🥺🥺" BECAUSE YOU WATCHED THE SHOW WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED SOLDIER!!
-100% call the black guy a woman beater and ignore the context and lore!! Because thats what u do when youre mad your fav ship is absolute shit!! Actually, TREAT EVERY BLACK CHARACTER AS SUBHUMAN!! THEYRE ALL EVIL!!
-IGNOREEE the police brutality and the link between enforcers and real life policing institutions as it is ABSOLUTELY impossible for fiction to be inspired by reality!! And if anyone, ESPECIALLY black people, call out how shitty season 2 handles it, call them a fake activist and send them racist slurs and lynching threats!!
-DEMONISE THE ABSOLUTE HELL OUT OF MEL MEDARDA!! DO NOT, AND I MEAN DO NOT, GIVE HER A SHRED OF THE MERCY OR GRACE YOU GIVE HER PALER PEERS!! IGNORE THE STORY AT PLAY BETWEEN HER AND HER MOTHER AMBESSA (one of the best parts of the show)!! SHE IS EVIL FOR THE CRIME OF GETTING IN THE WAY OF YOUR DOOMED YAOI SMUT!!
-Viktor??? Oh hes a twink because hes skinny and disabled!! Twink!! Twink!! Twink!!! And a bottom!!!!!!!!
-ignore the fact Viktor is CANONICALLY asexual!! Make smut of him and Jayce!! And make him a bottom!! And severely out of character!!
-Treat sevika as NOTHING more than a sex object, call her innocent and ignore ALL her wrong doings and developement
-Jinx and Caitlyn are just different shades of the same blue!! 🥺 Therefore, if you like Jinx, you ABSOLUTELY have to like Caitlyn (but not, and i mean NEVER, the other way around haha!!) Ignore the fact they are two fundamentally different characters who are motivated by 2 ABSOLUTELY different things because uh... both have blue... hair and uh...
-Say the dipshit heimerdinger was right all along as if the events in the show arent 99.9999999% HIS fault due to the absolute ignorance and inaction he bestowed upon the people during his whole 400+ years of life
-making a caitvi fanfic? VI IS AN IDIOT MEATHEAD AND IS INCAPABLE OF BASIC HUMAN LEVEL 1 TASKS!! CAITLYN IS HER PERFECT GORGEOUS AMAZING SAVING GRACE!! VI ACTUALLY CANT EVEN READ!! IGNORE THE FACT VI HAD TO BE INDEPENDENT FOR YEARS WHILE CAITLYN WAS FED WITH A SILVER SPOON AND PROBABLY HAD MAIDS FOR EVERYTHING!! VI IS NOTHING BUT A DUMB PUPPY DOG!! BE SUPER CLASSIST!!
-refuse to aknowledge that, as good as S2E7 was, the main reason the writers did it at the time they set it was probably to remove ekko from the plot because having him react to the bullshit caitlyn kiramman did would ruin the centrist plot and make our perfect morally grey complex female main poc queer femme fem lesbian spaphic wlw complex complicated mommy issues Autism whimsical pretty girl character look like an actual bad person!!
-harass the shit out of people who dont like caitvi while proceeding to make fanfics and art of maddie being brutalised for just following her leader, Ambessa (literally a better excuse than what caitlyn is excused with) and call her a whore and homewrecker but caitlyn is innocent in it despite literally also being fully willing in the affair!!
-anyone, and i repeat ANYONE, who doesnt like jayvik, doesnt ship them or just sees them as more platonic deserves to be shred apart, sent death and rape threats, bullied, and is an absolute homophobic transphobic ableist somehow racist *buzz word* *buzz word* *buzzword*
-call caitvi "butchfemme" but then turn around and say bisexual women cant be butch or femme, ignore the ACAB and bisexual history of butch and femme identities
-remember, Caitlyn cannot be evil, a dictator, classist, racist and neither can her family because shes from fictional japan!
Happy larping! ♡
