    Yes, the relationship between Jinx and Silco is the daughter-father kind. Sevika mentions that next episodes.
    It looks weird because Jinx's mentality doesn't match her looks. She clings to Silco like a 4 year old kid, which makes sense because that's all she is. She grew up, but all she gained all those years was craziness.

      That’s what I was thinking. They are both very broken, and it is a father-daughter relationship it’s just more touchy then most. But I think it’s intentionally done that way to put people off.
      If Jinx was really young, no one would bat an eye if she was clingy with Silco. But she acts young when she’s older and it makes everyone raise an eyebrow. It’s a testimony to her mental well-being.

Viktor is the one who came from nothing, despite his disability, and is more committed to advancing the world.

      When you're born into obscene wealth while others have less than nothing, there's two paths you can take with it. You can either just shrug and accept that you're a parasite living a life of luxury due to an accident of birth, or you can convince yourself that you earned it. That you have so much while others have nothing because you're special. Some kind of genius visionary who's singlehandedly carrying civilization and giving purpose to the dumb laborers who actually do all the work and create all the wealth.
      Jayce chose the second option, and he's even more of a tool for it, no matter how affable he is otherwise.

    Silco sees her as a daughter. She doesn't know any boundaries but she does see him as a father. Silco "raised" her as sort of like letting her do what she wants under orders of him. Like he'll tell her to do something and she'll do it but he doesn't really care what she does he just lets her do whatever she wants. Because of this and lack of social stimulation of having friends (she literally talks to dolls she made of her dead friends) she becomes very clingy to the only person that shows interest in her (Silco) and she just doesn't understand social norms. But it seems like Silco doesn't mind at all hence why she keeps doing it because it doesn't bother him. He even forgives her for murdering the 6 enforcers because she got some form of result. He DEFO has a soft spot for her like an actual daughter.

    I like the imagery of Jinx sitting inside of a giant, old turbine talking to herself. Sitting on the edge of the blade while she is on the edge of sanity.
    And notice that when Silco defends Jinx and takes her side, he knows she is up in the rafters listening. So I think that might have been a show for her at least to some degree. Contrast that with episode 1 when Powder was eavesdropping on Vi and Milo, but only heard Vi agreeing with him out of context. Reinforcing in her mind that Vi never cared enough to stick up for her, but Silco does. The exact opposite of reality.

      Silco also knows that Jinx is mentally unstable since she is very open that she still sees Vi, but he didnt see that as a liability instead she's a very valuable asset that needs to be utilized wisely.
      Blaming Jinx while knowing fully well she is unstable while on the job is a dumb excuse which is why Silco called Sevika a failure since she was very lax on securing the site and unaware that Jinx is used as a last resort and a one-man clean up crew which is why she is placed below deck

This attitude about her has likely gone on for a while, judging by how Sevika doesnt ask why he’s defending her. She knows very well why, so it’s implied that he takes her side regularly.

    The Hexgate sequence is absolutely epic. This gigantic magic steampunk machine slowly powering up as this simple and smooth epic melody rises up. The formation of the magical forces around the airship as it floats into position, and the surge and "whoosh" as the music crescendos.

  • @gtv4005

    I think their interactions are less romantic/sexual and more mentor/religious leader/father. At least from Silco's side. Jinx, idk. She's a dependent wild card right now. But I just think she needs someone to rely on her, to treat her like she's not a jinx. The relationship is just reminiscent of Joker/Harley because she crazy, and crazy dependent on his being there for her.
    Silco so far hasn't shown any signs of desiring her in the way people are assuming. He sees himself in her, and my bet is he just wants her to grow up, to get the same enlightenment, like he did. Because he thinks he's so right, in both how to save Zaun and how to be strong.
    Maybe it's also because after finding someone like him, he doesn't wanna be alone. So, he tries to look out for her but the only way he thinks he can is to make her more like him. Make her powerful. (He also looks like he's dying, so he might also be grooming a successor)
    It's weird. But if you think about both of their characters perspectives and motivations, it makes sense.

    I too was really worried about Silco's treatment of Jinx with that first scene in his office. I mean, he's not a good role model, but it was a relief when I realized that there was NOT anything sexual going on. I also got that Joker and Harley vibe, except he isn't abusive- at least not in the same way or to the same degree- as the Joker, and he's not crazy, just evil.

    WE BACK! HAPPY PROGRESS DAY!
    Jinx/Powder - really is one of my favourite Characters. I did not think i would ever care about her but man she is done really well. I like how they are showcasing the fluctuation of her mental state.
    Or how she replaced one Father Figure (Vander) with his Killer (Silco). Quite Morbid but understandable for a girl that only wants to find herself and gain some recognition, love and maybe respect even. I was afraid her "Crazyness" would come of the wrong way, but it fits and feels really good to me - wich still feels bad because ....man fk i just want to hug her :(
    Jinx and Silco feels very obviously (atleast for me) like a father daughter relationship - Jinx has MASSIVE abandonment issues, is extra clingy, knows no boundaries ect ect.
    20:00 GET JINXED
    Mel is one hell of a manipulative woman, I love how they're developing her character.
    Caitlyn - also a Character i frequently play as but never really cared for. She`s really interesting in Arcane tho.
    Poor Victor looking so sickly :( i think Jayce would share the Fame but Victor truly does not care about it at all. He is a Scientist 100% of the time.

    Powder suffered an extreme psychotic break at the end of ep.3. She'd always had some underlying issues before, and then they sheltered her pretty thoroughly for most of her life. Then "that" happened. Now, the psychological trauma was so severe that her brain literally physically damaged itself in a desperate attempt to keep functioning. Like digging a firebreak in a wildfire. Nothing and no one can help her anymore, because now she's forever trapped with the fire, and it will never go out.

    Professor Hiemerdinger's species is known as yordles and yordles live in bandle city
    In bandle city, time moves differently, so professor Hiemerdinger can be more than a 1000 years old.
    In league of legends lore, 900 years before the events of arcane, there was a huge war called the rune war.
    World runes are powerful stones(like infinity stones) and were used to create the planet this story is taking place on. That's right, this ain't earth. This planet is called runeterra.
    SO, It might be possible Hiemerdinger is referencing the rune wars when he said magic causes destruction.
