Vi Meets Jayce | Arcane

Jayce: "Those gauntlets are tools meant for construction."

Vi: "Interesting. You know what's also interesting? Punching people."

I like that random guard in the background. He's just standing there with his clipboard filling out the paperwork. You can't see his face, but you can tell he's looking at the two people with hextech weapons thinking, "Oh, crap, I don't want to have to get between that!"

[nslater]

Didn’t notice before, but Vi gave a small sigh of relief when Jayce decided not to fight her. She’s seen that weapon in action, so she knows better.

2:52 “I can’t let you leave, ” after S2, he was willing to act on that

[ClaudioProductionsX]

I like that, despite everything progressing in the series, Jayce's morals and attitude always remained unchanged. He doesn't get blindly manipulated, but he's willing to listen always to what other people have to say to him.

"What if your legs got cut off where would it hurt"

I love how when Jayce tells Vi to take the gauntlets off, he's not just talking about the gauntlets, he's talking about Vi's use of violence. He's telling her that violence isn't the right choice. When Vi tells him he'd have to force her, she's telling him that she'll only stop when she's dead, that she will keep fighting, violently.

You can't spell violence without Vi.

i love the subtle details, like when Jayce was using the gloves it felt awkward, a bit like he was struggling. but when vi took it she is a natural with it. its a little thing but that communicated a lot.

Vi has balls of steel standing up to the creator of Hextech when he had a big ass hammer and all she had were the gauntlets.

it's hard to take sides when neither of them are wrong

[nslater]

The interesting thing about this back and forth is that Vi is making a ton of assumptions about Jayce. She thinks he’s some pampered, ignorant rich pretty boy who has never faced adversity. And while it’s true Jayce hasn’t lead as hard or violent as Vi, he’s gotten to where his is because he genuinely wants to help others, and has faced trials and prejudice himself. But Jayce, unlike Vi, understands the cost of abusing power like Hextech, and the one time he decides to ignore that warning, a kid dies. And worse, Vi tells him afterwards that crap happens and that there will be collateral along the way. Jayce shows tremendous strength by walking away. In his eyes Vi essentially justified killing a kid and Jayce would not accept that.

Vi is being Vi. Loud, passionate, punch and go all out. Jayce is being Jayce. Calculating, thinking of solutions that benefit as many people as possible.

Their lives and others in both cities have been intertwine for so long, and they didn’t even know it. This is master class storytelling right here.

[lordsandwich]

"Why did jayce just quit?" Jayce is a good man that just did something that went against his very own nature. A child is dead and he is responsible.

Vi claimed it was justified but to a man like Jayce death is never justified.

[nemak]

I love how he puts down the hammer when he starts to think they may be on the same boat with Vi and pick up the (other) hammer when he finds out they actually are not. This show is just too good.

[EchoBoomer]

The Top/Mid Laner arguing with the Jungler? This is definitely League of Legends!

[andrewpenny]

Jayce wasn't wrong about the alone thing though. And I do hope they team up again.

[Tfaonc]

Love the random enforcer they cut to, you can see him thinking "ahhhh shit, mom and dad are about to fight again"

[TheReal_MG]

I love how VI’s just roasting him so hard LOL Jayce has nothing to say back

[roxirock]

People are missing the point here. Vi is SUPPOSED to not be in the right, she is ignoring what Vander told her because she's revenge hungry. And honestly she has every right to call Jace out here. She had to watch as Milo and Cleggor got blown up to pieces, two kids may I add, because of the council choices, and NOBODY from Piltover cared. She is right, Jace has always been a part of it.
Also the reason people are more hostile towards Jaces decision is because he has never seen war before and just wants it for justice or some sort of morality win, Vi on the other hand has been a victim from the start, so it makes sense she'd be aggressive, that's how she's been rase.
But Vi is still not in the right, that's the point. She was so blinded from revenge that she forgot what she's supposed to be standing for.
She got her revenge, but lost Powder in the process.

I think it's interesting that Jayce listened to Vi and heard her about the kids and Topside's culpability, but took a very different message than the one she wanted him to take.
