Jinx Would Be The Character That Breaks The 4th Wall (like Arcanes Deadpool) But Jinx Specifically Not

My favourite underrated thing about Louis de Point du Lac is that he truly is the least curious vampire to ever be made and he does not give fuck about vampires despite being one.

Its Claudia who goes to libraries, reads the folklore, tries to learn as much as she can and pushes Lestat for answers about who made him and where the others are. Claudia says Vampire Pride and Louis says hmmm Vampire Tolerance.

And Louis...truly does not care about vampire history,law, culture. He's never even thought to ask. There are vampire laws?...ok...Lestat never cared about them and he's not going to either, lol. He's broken a few and he will continue to do so. Oh you have a coven? he's not gonna join it, he's gonna do his own thing. but good for you good for you.

the 500+ year old Coven Leader, he's gonna call Louis, Maitre, actually.

He has fire powers? thats kinda cool. he'll learn that but only cause it lets him vent his feelings about Lestat.

Lestat and Armand say the name of the vampire queen in front of him and Lestat straight up says, "Louis has no idea who that is" and do you think Louis cares, outside of the fact that for some reason it means he can't kill Lestat? No! Do you think in the 77 years he's been with Armand he ever took 5 minutes to ask a follow up question? No!

Do you think he will care about Akasha in season 3? Doubt it! Outside of her obsession with Lestat, who is the only person left on the planet he seems to be able to filter Caring About This Shit through

He blatantly breaks the 3rd law and publishes a book about being a vampire and when the other vampires get pissed not only does he not apologise he literally sends them his location and says 'you wanna fight? lmao don't miss'

I love him. Daniel Molloy is gonna need to bring his A game because Louis will not be solving a single mystery next season, nor would it even occur to him to try.

La la land has ruined me

Okay, so spoilers for the apothecary diaries

Also, there are some heavy topics here, so be warned

Okay light context:

Old emperor :creep

Lady Anshi: dowager empress

Lady Ah Dou: concubine of current emperor

So I've been thinking about the implications of Lady Ah Dou and Anshi's babies being switched at birth.

Anshi understandably so could not love the baby she had later in life. The baby came as a result of her revenge on the old emperor. Honestly, I don't blame her for it. She took revenge on the man who sexually abused her since she was 9 or 10 years old, and while it is wrong, I completely understand where she came from. It was the culmination of years of abuse, then being ignored and forgotten entirely, while she had to live with the abuse that was done to her and live with the knowledge that countless other girls were actively suffering as a result of the emperor. And yes I do understand he suffered abuse at the hands of his mother, so it's likely a result of that. The show handles the cyclical nature of abuse very well, especially in the time period. Except we dont see Anshi going on to rape other men too. She rapes the man who raped her and as a result, becomes pregnant. The situation obviously traumatised the old emperor, too. He now had to live with seeing his rapist around and carry that trauma, the same way Anshi and the countless other little girls had to do for decades.

but back to my main point.

Ah Dou was concerned her son would not survive and she wanted him to. So they switched their babies it was a mutually beneficial thing to them. However the implications of it.

We know, mao mao is incredibly intelligent and has figured it out more or less. Could it be possible that another high-ranking government official has figured out that Jinshi is infact the heir to the throne. Considering that twice now he has had an attempt on his life. And a certain high ranking official who pushed for his daughter to become a concubine who also happens to look similar to Shisui, who happens to be the younger sister of Suirei, who orchestrated the first attempt on Jinshis life. Is it also not such a coincidence that there are foreign envoys present in the village that Suirei has taken MaoMao to. Western foreign envoys which coincidentally, the gun used in the second attempt on Jinshis life was western made. And another coincidence it happened at the father of Concubine Loulans retreat. Who looks suspiciously similar to Shisui, who's related to Suirei.

Lots of coincidences

And no, I haven't read the light novels or manga or seen spoilers, so this is purely speculative.

-Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, Original 6 team, moodboards (colour+aesthetic)

Ahhh, they look so cool like this! Fine, I'll post them like this, but in the morning I'm gonna post each one in the order I made them, and give a fun little breakdown of the aesthetic and colour choice. :))

So uh I just realised something

ARCANE SEASON 2 ACT 3 SPOILERS

I will say I disliked jinxs ambiguous ending at first purely bc I wanted to know if she's alive or not however I realised it's similar to Lucy Gray Bairds end.

I haven't watched a ballad of songbirds and snakes however I do know that it's never revealed if Lucy Gray actually died or not. And it is that way for a reason, to show that whether dead or alive she is free from snow, the games and panems archaic system. It is to show that ultimately freedom in life or death is the greatest revenge or gift you can give.

Jinx had that whole conversation with Silco about breaking the cycle of death and how it can only be broken if you walk away. She obviously kept that in mind and the writers wanted us to keep that in mind.

Jinxs ambiguous ending is to show us that the sisters can only be truly at peace if they are not in each other's lives. We saw that in the alternate reality ekko was in. They cannot live and grow and heal if they are in each other's lives. Some relationships cannot be repaired and sometimes the greatest gift you can give someone is leaving them no matter the pain.

Edit:

Lucy's ambiguous end is to show us that your freedom and silence can be the biggest revenge towards someone who hurt you.

Jinxs ambiguous end shows us that sometimes the greatest gift you can give to someone you love is your absence as your relationship hurts the both of you

AHHHH THE WRITERS CANNOT LET US BE HAPPY

CONTRAVERSIAL OPINION

I liked Gilmore Girls: A year in the life

I thought it was very accurate for the characters themselves. Of course, Rory would be going through a period of uncertainty. I actually liked how Lorelei and Emily's relationship progressed over the 4 episodes. I loved Emily's ending.I loved Lorelei doing something as stupid as living in the wild for however long that book or movie was (never read or seen it).

They lost Richard. The whole show starts with them losing Richard, and they're grieving. Of course, they'd all be going through changes. Grief changes you as a person. For Rory, he was her rock, her biggest supporter. It makes sense that it would kind of cause her to spiral further than she already was. Because let's be honest, that girls life was not what she imagined it to be. She probably imagined herself, travelling yes, but having a stable job and writing things that mattered. Not being in an affair with someone who's engaged and being rejected from jobs left, right, and centre. It actually makes sense she'd be in an unhealthy relationship with logan that girl hasn't had a normal relationship. And I like that the season ends with her pregnant it's a very full circle moment.

Lorelei lost her father. It's tough enough to have a strained relationship with your parents, but to lose them without really ever trying to fix that strain is hard. The scene where she's standing looking over the hills and she calls Emily genuinely makes me so emotional everytime.

And guys, Emily's arc over the show was the best. I rewatch it for her. Of course, she would start housing random people. She felt alone after losing her husband. Her granddaughter was always travelling, and her daughter and her didn't have the best relationship. Of course, she'd want to move and leave the DAR. She lost a major person in her life that's painful. I love that she moves to the coast and starts volunteering for a museum, using her history degree. It's so accurate for her, she'd want peace after losing the love of her life. It makes sense that she'd make these changes.

ALSO, I loved that Jess was the one to encourage Rory to write a book. He was the only one (besides Lorelei) who was actively like what the fuck why did you drop out of Yale?

Honestly, I'm glad Dean didn't show up

Lanes arc in the show isn't canon for me. In my mind, she divorced Zac after the kids turned 2 and started her own band, and they're super successful, and she's mega rich.

I liked Paris's arc it's fitting that she'd be a high-powered white feminist smash through the glass ceiling type.

why am I so correct when drunk

Jjk characters as Christmas movies/ Christmas movie characters. (this may be off I may have been drinking a little it's festive.)

Gojo would be the brother Ben from The Family Stone.

mahito and kenjaku would be the robbers from home alone (that one juju stroll wirh jogos head is inspiring this)

Geto is Meredith from The Family Stone. (watch the movie and you'll see why)

Megumi would be scrooge mcduck from the animated Disney one (not animated Mickey mouse Disney one)

Nobara would be barabje from the barbie retelling of scrooge bc she's cunt and nobara is cunt

Yuta would be the Santa Clause bc I DONT LIKE HIM AND I DONT LIKE THAT MOVIE

Uhhh Inumaki would be a 1920s silent christmas film (im. funny laugh)

Nanami would be the Die hard guy Bruce Willis

that's all I can think of MERRU CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS
