u/NinetiesMusicLover Ally Jinx 7d ago

Thank you for saying this, GOAT mod! The people who improperly title BookSteet must be dealt with severely! 😡

u/horrorfan555 Jinx’s Shimmer Fluid 7d ago

Hammer fist :D

u/NinetiesMusicLover Ally Jinx 7d ago

u/great_light_knight, eradicate this aggravating crook this instant!

26

u/horrorfan555 Jinx’s Shimmer Fluid 7d ago

I will be back, but hornier

51

u/[deleted] 7d ago

Hammerfist has it all:

  • it’s an actual term for a type of punch
  • it sounds sexual, like Jayce is hammering Vi while she fists his asshole
  • that’s really it actually I rant out of points already

29

u/Efficient-Volume6506 7d ago

Counterpoint: bookstreet is funnier

2

u/PforPandamonium 5d ago

See bookstreet actually sounds like it could be the name of something. Like Book St. For peak hilarity I'd go with StreetBook.

u/Certain_Baker7235 How we feeling? 7d ago

u/g0ndor Hit it, Imagine Dragons 7d ago

Bookstreet is the way

12

u/LeonardoCouto 7d ago

For the pun, what about StreetSmart?

55

u/great_light_knight Unironic Streetbook Shipper 7d ago

that's the original joke

streetsmart + booksmart = the two smarts cancels out and you're left with just streetbook

(as a reference to the fact that they are both intelligent and crafty on their own but complete idiots when working together)

11

u/LeonardoCouto 7d ago

Oh! Okay, that is a sick joke (I mean it positively). Whoever came up with it is a genius amongst us

Wouldn't Streetsmart make more sense for a Vi×Jayce ship since Vi is from the streets of Zaun and Jayce is a literal genius

Nice one!

u/zapering Viceps 7d ago

Missed opportunity right there.

u/Final_Ear9009 7d ago

Jaywalk?

Ok ... Google it is.

Jaywalking is the act of pedestrians walking in or crossing a roadway if that act contravenes traffic regulations.

oh ... yea. It made sens. Viktor/Caitlin should be illegal. No one should cross the line and go there.

99

u/LuckyLoki08 7d ago

Also, Jaywalking is probably the one crime Viktor never committed

65

u/Budget_Avocado6204 Slutco 7d ago

Are you ashamed of yourself?

7

u/47thCalcium_Polymer 7d ago

Why because he couldn’t get across the street fast enough before the cars came?

MelJay erasure

121

u/cat_blues 7d ago

As is standard. Even when talking exclusively about straight ships, everybody forgets the one canon straight ship we actually had.

73

u/NinetiesMusicLover Ally Jinx 7d ago

True, everyone forgets them. 😢

45

u/Shurikenblast_YT “Never give up on your dreams” - Singed 7d ago

Even they forgot them

19

u/NinetiesMusicLover Ally Jinx 7d ago

Ugh, don't remind me. 😖

u/Jock645 7d ago

Doesn’t count, it’s a Bi4Bi straight-passing relationship

Jayce is babygirl. Meljay is lesbians.

u/Ok_Listen1510 “I ❤️ my homophobic daughter” - Silco 7d ago

okay then, ambessa and his ass

13

u/Budget_Avocado6204 Slutco 7d ago

Silco/Ambessa or Viktor/Ambessa is the way to go

u/Ok_Listen1510 “I ❤️ my homophobic daughter” - Silco 7d ago

nah, i see those all the time on tumblr. gimme something NEW

u/Final_Ear9009 7d ago

H*imerdinger/Ambessa?

u/Ok_Listen1510 “I ❤️ my homophobic daughter” - Silco 7d ago

if these fools think Smeech is a furry what do you think they’re gonna say about H*imerdinger?

1

u/Final_Ear9009 6d ago

They will probably scream it's disgusting because they hate him.

SO TRUE

u/KamikazeTank "Ma Meilleure Bang-A-Me" 7d ago

All non-gay ships aren't canon and betray character identity.

52

u/8SigmaBalls Son of Zaun 7d ago

But... timebomb🥺

57

u/Allhailbradette Proficient Hexstrap user 7d ago

Timebomb isn't straight ekko is a stud.

19

u/theonlyotaku21 Sevika’s Tradwife 7d ago

u/Sarita1046 7d ago

Yesssss

5

u/Big-Commission-4911 She's the new HOUND of the Underground, for sure :3 7d ago

stud?

11

u/Allhailbradette Proficient Hexstrap user 7d ago

A stud is a non-white masc lesbian. Here's an example.

39

u/KamikazeTank "Ma Meilleure Bang-A-Me" 7d ago

I don't make the rules.

u/fiendish-gremlin “I ❤️ my homophobic daughter” - Silco 7d ago

timebomb is bi4bi get your facts correct

u/Alone-Monk Jonx 7d ago

Time bomb is the exception to the rule

10

u/Shnavtt Gingerbomb 7d ago edited 7d ago

Timebomb isn't canon, we all know the person who Jinx actually loves is Maddie

1

u/SkyeMreddit 3d ago

Those two are definitely Bi 4 Bi

2

u/AcrobaticSmell1787 7d ago

What about Mel and Jayce?

9

u/KamikazeTank "Ma Meilleure Bang-A-Me" 7d ago

Viktor broke them up so that the timeline could heal.

19

u/Designer-Muffin-47 7d ago

why vi is book.

37

u/GetJinxedBozo Homophobic Jinx 7d ago

Finally no woke GAY ships

This is exactly how it should be.
Jaywalk is the best ship

16

u/jinxsilcodittor "Ma Meilleure Bang-A-Me" 7d ago

That's not jayce...

13

u/boopityschmoopz 7d ago

T posing Caitlyn got me shakin

10

u/cat_blues 7d ago

Why did you use the cool, fanon, shimmer using Zaunite Viktor for the picture? Like any actual version of Viktor would be so much funnier.

S1 Viktor, on the brink of death, would fall over if enforcer Cait looked at him stern

Jesus Viktor would humble dictator era Cait so hard

Arcane herald Viktor... Idk if that's a straight ship anymore

29

u/Short-Dot-1167 Cait top truther 7d ago

actual ragebait what happened to my meljay

22

u/Budget_Avocado6204 Slutco 7d ago

Jaywalk? What does it mean

31

u/8SigmaBalls Son of Zaun 7d ago

Okay, hear my thought processes behind jaywalk...

Jaywalk = crossing a road unlawfully

Caitlyn is an enforcer of the law
And Viktor arch through season one is all about walking and stuff

So them together would be the same as Jaywalk, makes sense, right?

22

u/Budget_Avocado6204 Slutco 7d ago

I thought it's becouse Vik can't walk and Cait should be in jail

9

u/DafnissM 7d ago

I need to know 😂

u/Decent_Recover3228 7d ago

Wait jaywalk is so funny I might become homophobic

u/DeeDaDolphane She's the new HOUND of the Underground, for sure :3 7d ago

Me and Vi

8

u/buckticking 7d ago

I'd say me and vi but that would be gay

17

u/Budget_Avocado6204 Slutco 7d ago

And Jayce/Vi are called BookStreet

1

u/8SigmaBalls Son of Zaun 7d ago

Is called streethammer, acktually

17

u/LuckyLoki08 7d ago

It's called bookstreet because Jayce is book-smart, Vi is street-smart and together they're completely idiots

u/Fit-Solution3448 Homophobic Jinx 7d ago edited 7d ago

u/OutcomeOptimal3725 4d ago

I could also imagine her being a firelight who defected to become a jinxer.

Or the two gangs had parlays from time to time during the occupation.

u/Deerorser 7d ago edited 7d ago

I can see bookhammer happening but people can make an argument for it. jaywalk is a maybe, It depends heavily on set up.

Reasons: Bookhammer wouldn’t make sense (to me) because they both are too steadfast. Vi and cait work because even though they can both be stubborn, they don’t get in arguments where it’s “I’m right and we will do it my way”.

I have seen a couple relationships where both were extremely stubborn and they would regularly get in arguments. One of them are still together and have developed a better relationship than before but it took them a while, so the ship could still work but unlikely (I could still be 100% wrong though. There are other people here that understand the characters way better than me.).

u/Incubus_is_I Klu Klux Kiramman 7d ago

People were calling Jinx/Caitlyn “Lawbomb” and I fully disagree.

Obviously it’s called ‘Gas Grenade’…
