Definitely for Jayce's sake...
...and maybe because she's one of the councillors most likely to be sympathetic to the undercity...
(not much competition there, considering most of the other councillors are bastards)
...but ALSO because I think he's be both nice enough to just want to do so and hubristic enough to think he could.
He is a scientist, after all.
So here's how Mel can survive. The bomb definitely gonna hit her, right? She basically has a target on her back. But hear me out:
Gold prosthetics.
We've got Finn's jaw thing, which I dunno if it's even a prosthetic but it's a big gold thing integrated with his body, and we've got two councillors with large gold parts of their body: that woman with the giant rings, which I think is just meant to be an accessory based on the ndebele people's neck rings, but the thing is about those rings irl is they may not TECHNICALLY be a prosthetic but they do deform the body of the wearer over time and I imagine they're hard as fuck to remove, so the line between them and the body is thin - and then there's the councillor whose entire body is just gold prosthetics to the point where you can't even tell what race he is under there!
So, yeah, there's precedent for gold prosthetics already, and Mel is absolutely COVERED in gold. It's an incredibly obvious visual motif - and not only is it obvious, but the parts where the gold ends and she starts are actually incredibly unclear already.
Like, what's going on with her shoulders and neck? How are those gold plates staying on there if they're not embedded into her skin? She's literally sleeping and they're still in there. You're telling me this isn't foreshadowing that she's gonna get gold prosthetics later on? Maybe something on her shoulders and back, where the bomb is definitely going to blow her the fuck up?
The arcane is a show absolutely full of prosthetics, to the point where if anyone loses any part of themselves at any point, however small, you can guarantee it'll come back as a prosthetic at some point (even Jayce's mum's fingers are visibly frostbitten in his flashback and in the future she has finger prosthetics!), so if they're injuring this woman who they've also very intentionally SMOTHERED in gold, there's no way she isn't gonna become some sort of gold cyborg.
And who's gonna do it to her? Mr. Glorious Evolution, of course. That or Jayce, but... I dunno, if I was to take bets on who's gonna make her a goldborg I'd go for mr. transhumanism.

So basically everyone we've seen around piltover and zaun talks with an American accent, right? If I remember correctly. But not Viktor. He has a... Russian accent? I think? But his backstory is pretty clear about growing up in the undercity. So... Were his parents migrants? Did they move to piltover hoping for a better life, but ended up in the undercity? Did they die of the same illness he has? Did they die disappointed?
Hylic, non-sonic style. In this version he wears speeds lol
If I was viktor I wouldn't even feel bad abt my ambiguously bisexual lab partner sleeping with mel. I would just look at her and be like yeah. I get it. And then mel would look at viktor and be like hmm I wonder if I can get a two for one deal outta this and this how how meljayvik can still win
All I want for arcane s2 is for Mel Jayce and Viktor to be in the same room together and talk
My sonic OC, Hylic the Speed Demon. The fun thing about chalk is that you can easily edit it into normal lineart, and I really like how sketchy and dynamic it looks!
Reblog with ur results. I'm Fuckfuck the Killer
{ !! Commissioned by @cawsket ! }
The prophecy
This is gonna sound weird but I had a very vivid fever-induced dream about Pangur. I was standing in a lake surrounded my forests and mountains at night. The moon was so bright but there were no stars. And then Pangur came over the mountain but she was so long like Falkor Neverending Story and she had so many legs and big sad eyes downturned like a 20s movie star and big purple eyelashes.
She was circling around me in the sky like some majestic sky worm and said in a voice that sounded like Helen Mirren “it’s 20% off on Wednesday”. I kept asking her what was 20% off but she kept saying things like “it’s a good deal for a Wednesday” and “you should take the offer while it’s hot”.
So anyway I’m taking that as a sign to buy something stupid that’s 20% off on Wednesday thanks Pangur
this seems like an elaborate way of getting me to do a 20% off sale but okay, I'll bite!
Pangur says "use the code 'GoodDeal' at greerstothers.shop"
I dont go here (star trek) but I have to say I really like ur art :]!!!!!!
Thanks!! I should really post more of it, lmao

recent 3d commission! character belongs to @cawsket, what an adorable little guy!
This piece took forever but I am very happy with how it turned out!
A Nausicaan Tusk Opera Singer named Yochk, I had a lot of fun making the character!
The design of the planet in the background was from the Star Trek Role Playing Game, it was the only depiction of the Planet Nausicaa I was happy with. Lovely to paint.
Sketch commissions fulfilled so far! for @myrrhemaid, @cawsket, dandeswife on twitter, @arctictisa, @onitekkart, and NerdyMangle on twitter.
