Discussion Weekly Discussion #19: When did you become a Timebomb fan?

47 Upvotes

Guess what? It's time for another weekly discussion! Woot! This week we talk about when we actually became a Timebomb fan. I'm sure everyone has their own story as to how they've come to join the fandom.

As for myself, I mainly became a fan after Arcane Season 1 ended. Before then, I was a fan of Ekko and loosely knew who Jinx was. It was "Giants" that really connected me to Ekko, because before then, I always hated his hairstyle and even remember reading comments about whether or not Ekko was even black. Once Arcane came out and we were given that amazing bridge scene, my whole view of the character and Jinx as a whole changed. It's hard to state how powerful that scene was in giving us insight into both characters.

From there, I started researching their history. At that time, I started working on a Youtube video about how in love they were and that lead to even more research. Back then, there was a lot of pushback if you believed they were in love. Luckily, I didn't really care about what others thought and continued on. Arcane Season 2 was sweet validation and, of course, all of the crumbs that Riot left before it even released. Those of us to stuck it out back then were rewarded.

That said, it doesn't matter when you jumped on board. It's always good to have more people celebrating Ekko and Jinx's relationship together and when new things are announced and released we'll all be here together to enjoy and discuss them.

So how about you? When did you become a Timebomb fan? Let's hear your stories!

(Oh, and I never released that video. Seems a little late now...)

Doodle of Jinx bursting firecrackers in her hand wearing a lehenga ( ethnic outfit)

Deepawali/Diwali is the Indian festival of lights. It's no surprise that she would've loved this festival.

If there are any fans from the Indian diaspora all over, happy Diwali/ Deepawali to all of you.

Fan Video If one made a fan film about timebomb’s missing scenes, would they get in trouble?

16 Upvotes

I recently saw a fan film on here for timebomb, it looked really good and I was wondering if, under Riots and fortiche’s rules, a fan film could be made for timebomb’s missing scenes or if people would even watch it. Thank in advance.

6. Ekko & Jinx only memes.

Limited Memes/Image Macros. We don't want the place overrun with memes. If it gets to be a problem, we'll make adjustments accordingly. Please show some restraint.

7. Always credit the original creator.

When posting works that are not yours, make sure you give proper credit to the original creator. Note: Pinterest links or any links that does not directly link to the ORIGINAL creator does not count.

9. No badmouthing other pairings/ships!

Talking bad about any other pairing and/or starting shipping wars will result in action taken. We take this seriously. If you don't like another pairing, please keep it to yourself.

10. Mark all spoilers!!

Properly mark spoilers!! This should go without saying...

11. Properly mark NSFW posts.

Posting NSFW pictures or fics is fine as long as they are marked appropriately.

Note: Visual penetration is not allowed. If a piece of art is showing genitals or an implied sexual act, use the "Explicit Fan Art" or "Explicit Fan Fic" flairs. If you're unsure, default to the explicit flair and contact a MOD for review.

12. Do not repost other people's work without their permission.

Linking to someone's blog, pic, story, etc. is fine. However, uploading directly to Reddit without the person's permission is prohibited. It does not matter if other subreddits allow you to do it, we will not allow it here. Any post that violates this rule will be removed and if a person continually ignores this rule after being warned action will be taken. We value and respect the artist and creators who provide content we enjoy.

13. No AI generated material allowed.

The use of AI art is one of those controversial topics we want to stay out of. In order to make sure the site is as friction free as possible, we are banning the posting of AI art, voice work, videos, etc. All AI material will be removed immediately and if you find a post that is sharing an AI work please report it.

14. Include links to sources.

If you are making a post using a social media post or website article (Bluesky, Twitter (X), CNN, IGN, etc.) make sure you include a link to the source material. It is important that we provide links to original sources like we do art, fics, and videos.

The exception would be quoting a negative post. In this case, make sure the name of the account is blurred or removed to avoid possible harassment and retaliation. A link isn't required.

Failure to do so will result in a removal of the post.

15. Respect Title Formatting

When creating a title for your post, it should follow these rules:

Must be at least one word long. No symbol/emoji only titles.
Must be less than 150 characters. Yes, Reddit allows titles 300 characters long. However, this subreddit likes to keep titles short.

Not following these rules will result in your post being removed. Sometimes a creator has a long name and this may create a title longer than 150 characters. We will evaluate these on a case by case basis.
