@@jannpial256 hun, you could have edited the comment why did you have to keep the ‘mouth’ part 😂😂😂 I’ve been laughing at this comment for a full 10 minutes because of that 😂😂 P.s these are definitely going to be spoilers (since it talks about his lore) but Viktor was obsessed with something called the ‘Glorious evolution’ essentially Viktor thought that human error was a weakness, since that consistent error in humans could mean death. On the other hand, machinery never makes errors (according to him) so the glorious evolution was about converting humans into robots. However, when Victor changed his body to become robotic, he didn’t realise that his human advantage of logic and emotion would actually be taken away from him. In my opinion, Viktor is a much better parallel to Jayce. Jayce is impulsive, emotional and is easily influenced by his ego. There was a part of Viktor’ lore that talked about him, trying to steal hextech from Jayce’s lab, to help his fellow Zauns folk who were suffering from a degenerative disease (if I remember it correctly) and the hex tech would be the only thing capable of defeating the disease. Obviously, Jayce being a piece of shit, decided that he would counter Viktor, defeating him, and was hailed as a ‘hero’ from there on, Viktor made it his mission to free humans of their weak flesh, and to transgress their weaknesses. Honestly, he’s just a misunderstood nerd that needs a hug.

To me I think he's a brilliant scientist, he came up with the idea to crank the Hextech, and I'm pretty sure he contributed a whole lot in making it work.

And here it is Viktor again who tries to tease him out of his gloomy mood when Jayce remembers an incident of himself messing up and feeling embarrassed to which Viktor only replies: "At least you didn´t throw up."

I honestly think this show has been in production so long they had no idea about jayvik being a thing since it wasn't really 'big' before this at all... but they also seem to not know any other word to describe two men who are close to each other lmao they brotherzone m/m ships a lot

[@vi_m_]

@@cokecan6169 ok name me one canon riot m/m ship vs canon m/m friendships yeah that's what I thought

[@garenmix365]

The fact that the sx scene overlayed with viktor dying, they knew what they were doing

[@kazuhasdeadfriend191]

@@cokecan6169 I already mentioned in my comment that Diana/Leona are another wlw ship, they were censored before, until Riot finally made them canon recently. Plus, Neeko is also a confirmed lesbian character. Not to mention that not every relationship is sexual?? Funny how you say “why does everything have to be sexual” when a whole ass straight sex scene is playing while Viktor is struggling to live lmao, but go off I guess. “It’s annoying when people ship any two male characters resembling friendship.” Okay but you could say the same about literally anything, people do the exact same thing with female and male characters. Literally look at Jayce and Caitlyn, they have a big age difference and an almost sibling dynamic, but people still ship them because according to them, “they are obviously flirting” and “you don’t look at a sibling like that.” See, here’s the thing, I don’t mind Jayce and Viktor not being canon, but what I do mind is the fact that they instantly shut down the shippers by saying they have a “brotherly” relationship. Like man, now it just feels weird. They didn’t even hit us with the “and historians said they were good friends”, Viktor just immediately got brotherzoned lmaoooo.

@@cokecan6169 I agree to an extent but that’s just people being afraid of being perceived as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, which in turn is an unwitting display of their underlying homophobic tendencies. (before you say anything about homophobia, reminder that gay people can be homophobic too) As the LGBTQ+ community begins to grow more accepted in our society, those fears will go away. It’s also a result of people being insecure of their sexualities, homophobes exist and the fear of judgement is what causes those problems. So, not to be redundant but that’s why I believe that things will change as people become more accepting. Normalizing those types of relationships will improve the state of society for most people. I hope you realize that the LGBTQ+ community needs those, as you call them, “cringe” relationships, they’ve had literally nothing which is why this is the most basic thing that can be done for them. A lot of people create gay characters just for the clout and money, it’s unfortunate and disgusting that they’re using a minority for their own gain, but it at the very least helps us begin the process of normalizing those relationships. Anyways, as much of an interesting conversation this was, I don’t like making long KZbin threads so this will be my last reply. Thank you good day.

okay but the absolute tragedy of viktor, our baby, our beloved, our spicy little pepperoni, our boy, being gay and desperately in love with a straight man ?? and viktor is slowly dying and they both know it, and he's struggling to complete his life's work with jayce but he can see jayce drifting away from him, being stained by flawed piltovan morals and logic ??? and the dual pain of heartbreak and jayce's betrayal to their original idea of improving life and helping the undercity ???????????? *cries*

[@JCRXV]

I really love this rebooted lore between these two or more rather a fully detailed history of these two . Arcane did a good job of humanizing both Scientists rather than making them out to be the archetypal good and bad guys they are in the game . It's really nice seeing Viktor glorifying the overall prosperity of Piltover and Zaun and Jayce trying to highlight Viktor and Zaunites that they too can be just as beneficial to the world as anyone else .
