Advice on how to enjoy Jayce outside of Arcane? I don't even like Arcane... But it seems no one remembers he exists outside of that for a decade previously

Im gonna be playing a bit of a bummer role here but........ Jayce focused stuff in fandom is very few and far inbetween. My advice is to curate your tl/dashboard/wherever to include the least amount of stress related to that subject, and if you feel like browsing the character tags is only making your outlook worse, give it a break. (Alternatively: when you do find something you enjoy, let the creator know about it! A comment or compliment goes a long way in terms of encouraging people and that's how you build a niche.)

There used to be a few more league jayce fanwork creators around but I've noticed a sharp decline and migration event since arcane, which isn't rly something I can do much about now nor can I fault them for it 🤷‍♂️

I tend to stick to myself or talk to the same 3ish people that understand what I like, and I'm pretty self-sufficient in that way; the most fun I have is coming up with story or AU concepts that I then throw in gdocs or scribble out on a canvas, and sometimes, if they're legible, I'll share them here for other people. I highly encourage everyone to try their own hand at hyperspecific interest crossovers or comparisons or silly fanart or bulletpoint AU fics that exist for your benefit prior to anybody else's. I'm a creator, and this is the main way I enjoy things. It may be different for you, but I think it's worth giving a shot! I believe the more of something you put out in the world the more it has a chance to take root and give back, but it has to start somewhere.

If reccomendations are what you seek, I can offer [ my fanfic bookmarks ] which contain a lot of jayce-focused works, and you can click on each individual author to browse a few more! (There are others, trust me.)

If you need starting places, try Dialectics and Reflectives or Total Organ Failure -- they set a really nice scene.

In terms of a bit more obscure but very enjoyable fanwork, heres an archive of og lore viktor/jayce art by Kyrrys, including a whole comic

You may also find great joy in Nesirch’s vikjayce twitter moment which has a loooot of 2019+ fanart! PLUS PART 2 (includes arcane)

And The Big Bad Jayvik Compilation, a sizable PDF of archived pre-arcane fic by Tyelperin

I wish I could offer a neater archive of jayce leagueoflegends overall, but it's not something I have ready right now. Maybe someday. When I next get back to you on this, I'll have a few textbased things of my own to add to the pile.

I’m sorry, I know you’ve been getting a lot of asks, so please don’t feel pressured to answer this right away-

I know we all hope to get SOMETHING of Silco in S2. Flashbacks, him being a new ghost to Jinx, even the (incredibly low chance) of him still being alive/brought back to life. But do you think we’ll actually get any of it? Or is this just wishful thinking?

If we do get flashbacks, what do you think they’ll be of? Him with Vander or him raising Powder? Or maybe both? Or something entirely different?

As far as the “ghost” theory goes, do you think he’d be a comforting voice for Jinx or another bad one because she’d carry the guilt around with her for killing him?

Just wanted to know all your thoughts about this, it’s really interesting stuff to think about.

Hi Anon! My brain is a little toast, so i'll be prattling, fair warning :

But do you think we’ll actually get any of it?

Yes, I believe so, in memories or in ghosts only. I don't think it's wishful thinking. Silco speaking as Fishbones is pretty likely, since she canonically speaks to the gun, and I don't think shooting down the Council will be therapeutic enough to make the voices and trauma go away lol

If we do get flashbacks, what do you think they’ll be of? Him with Vander or him raising Powder? Or maybe both? Or something entirely different?

I think it'll depend who is having them. Jinx may give us flashbacks of her time with him. Warwick is established to have no memories of his past besides a girl screaming, so depends how flexible they want to be, but flashes of him and Silco being young and wholesome bringing a ton of rage and hurt to WW would be... **YUMMY**

I don't see a lot of other flashbacks happening with him (unless Sevika goes into main character mode and somehow gets one that includes Silco?)

I just don't think he'll be that prevalent, because his role was to bring us Jinx, and to set up the politics of Zaun and Piltover by the end of the show. Cait has zero story besides discovering poor people suffer, and Viktor and Jayce have only tiptoed towards their own becoming... I just don't think there will be narrative room for a lot of Silco.

As far as the “ghost” theory goes, do you think he’d be a comforting voice for Jinx or another bad one because she’d carry the guilt around with her for killing him?

I think he'll be there, and I'd appreciate him being a positive voice. I think it's likely, because Fishbones seems to have positive voice lines. Or wellllll "we should do laundry and pay taxes" voicelines, which is much better than blowing stuff up. So it's possible that he'll balance out Mylo. Well. Arcane is made out of pain so it's just me HOPING.

the (incredibly low chance) of him still being alive/brought back to life.

Funnily enough... I don't believe this will happen, nor do I want it to happen, in any way. Shimmer Silco is amazing, and I love all the fanarts of him I've seen post season 1, either turned to a creechur like WW, or with white hair and shimmer eyes...

But within the show, I sure as all hell hope he stays dead. Because otherwise, it would make the finale's emotional drama fall flat. It would make Jinx's pointless and cheap emotional beat. "Oh, oof! She cried and killed people but it's all good! All fine! Big scare, but he isn't dead after all!" This is what reviving him would tell me.

Silco's death made me ball my eyes out like a little bitch. I want him to stay dead because I want this scene to hurt and to matter forever. He's a martyr who sacrificed his life for this city, and I want that to matter in itself. I want his daughter to have her own story and grow up to take on her own causes. I want Sevika to step into his shoes and maybe see him in a new light as she struggles with leadership.

I want him to be a ghost over the lives of characters moving forward. Either a bad one, or an inspiration, or a voice in their ear.

I want Vi and Cait and Pilties to still be stepping in his shit a decade after he's dead. I want him to live on through his legacy, and that someone drinks in his memory when Zaun gains its independence.
