Any second now.
And by any chance, did you ask if Jinx got any sleep this night? Of course you did (you did btw stfu).
Well, Jinx, in fact, din NOT get any sleep. And not because of bad things. At least.
But because she could not contain her excitement.
She was very, very excited for the next day. It was something so very special, that happens every year, the same day every fucking year. Curious, right?
(You already know what I'm talking about from the title, but pretend you don't for that 'oh wow i didn't know' factor, k? Thanks. )
Now she was in bed, covered up to her neck with a fluffy blanket, waiting for the morning alarm to ring so she could just start rightfully screaming 'IT'S MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY LET'S GOOOOOO'.
Ekko totally expects this. He knows just how excited she gets every single birthday - or Christmas. Or Easter. Or Halloween. Or any holiday involving fun or getting gifts.
So, any second now.
Any second-
And the alarm finally rang after it nearly killed Jinx.
"IT'S MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY, WAKE UP BITCH!"
"EVERYONE KNOWS IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY, JINX, INCLUDING THE FFFFREAK WHO WROTE THIS SHIT I'M IN RIGHT NOW"
They both screamed at once, Ekko mindlessly, badass-ly and carelessly breaking the fourth wall. Overrused, ik, but damn not even flex tape is gonna fix that for me.
And then there's only boring, dull silence.
"So um." Jinx started again.
"What are we doing?" She asked like a little enthusiastic child.
"We're breathing." Ekko answered, smartassly.
"But besides that?"
"We're blinking." Another smart ass answer from our favourite boy, Ekko.
"Oh fuck off."
~
Later on, some time after they had breakfast, Jinx still didn't calm down, however. If anything, she slowly became even more enthusiastic.
That wouldn't be good.
And he couldn't let her be alone for not even one second. Why? Well, because she would go on a bombing spree up in Piltover, then, if she gets caught - very improbable but can happen. Caitlyn saved her once. - She'll just say 'but heeeey, it's ma birthday and i get to do whatever fucked up shit i want to'.
And right now, both were in the bedroom, watching a compilation of the best rage breakouts of Tyler1. For some reason, both enjoyed these compilations more than they should.
Right as the comp ended, the door bell rings, while someone loudly knocks on the door.
Well shit, Ekko knew exactly who those were.
A redheaded girlboss and a nerdy aristocratic muscly enforcer. If you didn't caught up on that well ur hopeless.
"I'm gonna go ans-" Jinx started, "No, I'm gonna do it" Ekko interrupted, stopping her from even getting up from the bed.
Jinx shrugged it off and switched from Tyler1 to Brandon Rogers. She loved Bryce Tankthrust as a character. (She remembers that one time she roleplayed Bryce outside, gathering weird but amused looks from strangers. Not absolutely on topic bit it's a fun idea)
Ekko didn't even let Jinx peek at the two girls behind the door. Well, that's if she would peek in the first place. Vut she wasn't really interested. Maybe some of his firelights friends, she thought.
So quickly, he opens the door, goes outside and closes it back, making it seem as un-sus as he could. (It was still sus but who cares)
"Good morning, Ekko" Caitlyn respectfully saluted, overlapping with Vi greeting "Mornin', Little man."
"Vi, I am 22." He said. The joke was really getting kinda old.
"Well you are still shorter than me so... I don't know, get taller?" She said.
"That's not how it works. BUT anyway, did you bring the stuff?" He asked, rushing to get to the big plan Vi named 'My little, adorable, but schizophrenic sister's birthday party'.
She even gave everyone fun code names. I mean, you could tell from a mile away she was Jinx's sister. For sure.
"Sure did, Fireowl. " Vi answered using Ekko's code name. (Yeah, she got inspired by his owl mask and the 'fire' is taken from 'firelight')
"Alright. How 'bout we recap the plan a bit?" Ekko proposed, looking at the other two.
"Good idea. Here's how we start:" Caitlyn started.
"We tell Jinx she can go out today and have fun, we thought about a theme park pretty far away from here, so we even bought tickets. She'll go along with Caitlyn, so this way we can make sure no laws are broken and Jinx doesn't overdose on cotton candy. Ekko, you remember how it ended last time she overdosed on cotton candy, right?" Vi quickly recaps the whole plan in short.
Oh, the memories of the last theme park adventure with Jinx last a lifetime :')
"Aaall the while you two stay here and set up the surprise party. And to assure everything goes well, I've given Vi a recipe for a cake so you two do NOT destroy a whole galaxy while trying to bake a birthday cake. And then, after you two finish setting up the party, one of you calls me and announces me it's done, just so I can bring Jinx home. " Caitlyn completed. She always thought about everything and everyone, to the point she could be called paranoid. Maybe. Just a little bit.
:)
"Okay, nice." Ekko started. He opened the door and quickly stepped inside, closing it after, leaving Caitlyn and Vi outside not to spoil the surprise. "JINX GET DRESSED YOU'RE GOING TO LOO LOO LAND"
"LOO LOO LAND?" Jinx woke up from the dead.
"DA LOO LOO LAND!" Ekko confirms, mimicking Blitzø's hand gesture.
Yes, they have watched Helluva boss. And you should too if you haven't.
Jinx sprinted to her wardrobe in her own room, getting dressed as fast as she could.
Well you see, the theme park in question wasn't actually named Loo Loo Land as you probably heard. But i guess Ekko and Jinx had this running gag of calling it Loo Loo land.
Oh and if you're wondering, Ekko's favourite character is Stolas, while Jinx prefers Blitzø.
(OMG HEADCANONS PLS MAKE SURE THIS DOESN'T MAKE IT TO TWITTER BRO :(((( )
In literally 1 single minute Jinx reappears from her room, dressed in the most fucking kidcore outfit thing ever. Fr fr she just like me bro. Anyway, this gremlin was wearing a crop top and jean shorts (?) On top of asymmetrical black and pink leggings (unnecessary and probably over the top like me, but the pink part had little pastel pink stars :3)
She also had an asymmetrical pair of fish net fingerless gloves, two different earrings and a choker she made with rainbow looms™.
(This is suuuuurely not how i would dress if i could've. )
(Nope.)
(I actually have a rainbow looms choker tho)
"Damn you dress ridiculously fast." Ekko stated. "You literally kin those barbie dolls in the commercials." He even joked. And no shit, she really could change that fast.
Who said shimmer had only reverse benefits?
"So when are we going :D ?" Jinx asked enthusiastically.
"Well, right about now, actually."
"Cool."
Wait a minute
-that Kazoo kid
"Why aren't you dressed then???"
"'Cause you're going with Caitlyn :') "
Okay, Jinx wondered if this was a joke. Of course it was, Ekko knows Jinx fucking hates Caitlyn with every centimeter - she only had like 160 centimeters but her hate surpassed even 4 fucking meters.
"Nice joke, but unfortunately I did one too many pranks to fall in this shitty trap." She said, petty as she was.
"It isn't a joke though. Caitlyn's waiting for you at the door." At which Jinx frowned like a child.
Her frown kinda broke Ekko down in pieces.
"She will let you play whatever songs you're into-" he said.
That's the moment Jinx's world broke down to pieces. If you must kill her, then kill her. If you must take Fishboned away, do it. But why make her go along to a literal theme park that spells 'fun' with the person that spells 'respect the law or die trying'???
You could see the exact fraction of a second her heart broke.
"WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO ME? ON MY BIRTHDAY TOO????" She began (theatrically, dramatically) sobbing. She hated Caitlyn with a Passion. The P is capital for emphasis.
"Well it turns out.." Hold on, Ekko's mind is typing. "The Firelights have a little problem and I couldn't just cancel your trip. You know, it's the first gift for your birthday." He smiled. Well, the only part that's a lie is the problem with the Firelights. The rest was true. So it wasn't all THAT bad. We're good here. Just goof noodles hanging around ;D
Jinx felt it was a little bit off. The Firelights all knew her birthdate.
Wasn't it a little bit weird for them to need help from Ekko right on her birthday..?
No, Jinx was probably over thinking shit again. It's kind of a bad habit, y'know.
Well, on the brightside (Author note: bruh i almost wrote british side wow thanks autocorrect. ) she got a free trip to the theme park.
"But you will come too when you finish, right?" She asks, curious.
"Of course. You do know how much I want to try out the biggest rides in that theme park with ya, right?" Ekko replied, smiling, warm and reassuring. Jinx couldn't help but start smiling too.
"Proooomiiiiise??" She asked, still smiling.
"Pinky promise :)"
"Then you'd better get rid of that problem as fast as you can or I'm gonna bomb the Firelights' hideout." Jinx said jokingly, as she got closer to Ekko, getting on the top of her toes, reaching his cheek to just u know
*smooch*
You can never leave without doing that ;)!!!
And in the blink of an eye she dissapeared, the only thing Ekko saw was the door closing afterwards.
He sighs, turning away to look for a sheet of paper. Yeaaa nooo he had planning to do ://
Just as Ekko wanted to take a step towards Jinx's room - she had sheets of paper stored in one of the black holes she calls drawers. I swear, you can't find GALLACTIC JACKSHIT IN THOSE DRAWERS. - The front door opened, with such an Immense fucking force it slammed so fucking powerfully against the wall.
"Oops, I forgot my phooooone~"
Jinx speed-tiptoed to the bedroom, where she left her phone.
And Ekko, that didn't even get to make one step away from the spot he was BEFORE she left was absolutely fucking scared. WHY DIDN'T THE DOOR/WALL SHATTER YET??? WHY DOES SHE KEEP DOING THIS >:000
Anyway she left again, slamming the door shut traumatic-ly hard.
Ekko needs a therapist.
And that therapist will need another therapist.
(Not referencing the character in a book i wanna write but didn't write yet noo sincerely noo
We have therapists who need therapy here tho ;))
Okay, now Ekko *hopes* he wouldn't have to suffer anymore of those and finally get to the party planning.
As he was about to take the goddamn sheet of paper.
I mean search it. The whole 'black hole in Jinx's drawers' thing didn't expire yet, brothers.
Ekko looks in the first drawer he can reach. And at that exact moment, loud knocking could be heard.
... But it didn't sound like someone was brutally abusing the door.
It was more of... Glass-y sound?
...
Oh shit.
OH SHIT.
a wild, panicked Ekko runs, leaving Jinx's room, not even caring enough to close the door after him. Swiftly, he goes down the stairs trying not to trip and guess who's at the window in the bedroom?
Yes, that's right. Vi.
'What the hell is wrong with these two.' He thought to himself.
The traumatized boy opens the window, letting Vi come in. From the window. It's not like doors don't exist or anything.
"YOU COULD'VE USED THE DOOR???" Ekko confusedly yelled-whispered.
"Yeah, i could've. But then Jinx would've saw me too. And remember, little man. I am government's secret."
He giggles awkwardly. "What the duck."
"Ah, I see you're still trying to be PG13." She commented, cocky and smirking. "Well frick that."
Ekko throws her a 'bitch, what' look and decides to mess with her.
"If we're being so PG13, why are you using 'frick'? " he asks, smartassly.
"Fuck you, I'm the character that curses the most in Arcane." She said, unconsciously breaking the fourth wall. "Wowow, slow down. Did you just break the fourth wall?" Ekko asked, confused.
"Yea, seems I did."
"How the fuck is that even possible."
"Little man, you know that kids may be hearing you use the F word, right?"
Ekko took a pause. Did Vi just fucking 360° the discussion?
"DID YOU JUST FUCKING-"
"No no no, no time for that. We have a party to plan." Vi remembered him. She left, going in the kitchen to do who knows who.
Ekko was shocked, even baffled.
She sighed it off and went in the kitchen as well. I guess a birthday party isn't really half that special if there's no birthday cake. And I'm not talking about the other cake, sadly.
~Caitlyn & Jinx's roadtrip adventure~
"I call MINIGUN" Jinx announced, shouting out of the blue, as soon as she saw Caitlyn's car.
"Pretty sure it's called a 'shotgun'...Not a minigun." Caitlyn tried to correct the younger, smaller, gremliner girl.
"It's MINIGUN"
bro srsly teleported in front of Caitlyn like the collector in the last ep of the owl house season 2 bruh 💀💀💀
"...ᵒᵏ ᵒᵏ ˢᵒʳʳʸ" Caitlyn spoke, scared like never before.
And Jinx hopped in the car. And so did Caitlyn, still a bit disturbed. Well this was gonna be an interesting day.
~
10 minutes later?
Caitlyn was driving safely and Jinx was already feeling like she has been on road all week long. Well at least good music - In Jinx's perspective, at least - was playing.
Aighty, time for a new song. Caitlyn was wondering what other monstrosity is gonna play next.
'I've got an idea, why don't we make snowmen out of beeeeef?'
Yes, of course Jinx enjoyed listening to Sodikken.
It was pretty damn self explanatory.
But you know what Caitlyn had yet to endure?
Ed Sheeran. Jinx didn't listen to Ed Sheeran because she liked his music or whatever. It was a meme element. The man was a meme. And well, Jinx is Jinx. Jinxes will be Jinxes. You know.
"Can I turn the music down, just a little bit?" Caitlyn asked, politely, but loud anough to make sure she is heard.
And the other girl thinks a little bit. "No ❤" she said.
Caitlyn sighed, exasperated already.
Out of literally Nowhere Island, Jinx randomly presses *that* button that makes the car window go down.
And then up again.
And then down.
And halfway it goes up again.
And down, all the way.
And up, all the way.
"What the bloody jesus skeedadle are you doing?" Caitlyn asked. WHY, MATE, WOULD YOU WANT A BO'O'OH WO'OH??? Jk they only drink tea, betch.
"I should be asking you this, you british Vi fangirl!!!???"
and at this point the situation just fucking wildly goes spiraling down hill.
"POINT IS JUST LET GO OF THAT BLOODY WINDEW-"
So downhill Caitlyn isn't even paying attention to the road.
"LOOK THE FUCK UPP STUPPID BITCH"
AND WAM, MOTHERFUCKER.
Guess who is now in a car fucking crash?~ 🥰🥰🥰
Exactly! Caitlyn and Jinx.
It's all so silent for a second. Even the music stops. Oh well guess we're not doing snowmen out of beef :<<<
Their faces are hopefully saved by the borderline, just a bit, maybe, perhaps useless airbags.
"Oh this is puffy." Jinx comments on the airbag. It really was puffy 🥰
"Omg ur right"
"Yea bestie"
"Course bestie."
"Yes my bestie"
"Bestie we're in trouble"
"Hmm oh are we? AREN'T YOU AN ENFORCER, HOW ARE YOU EVEN IN TROUBLE???"
"I DON'T EVEN KNOW I CHEATED AT THE ENFORCER EXAMS"
"WOW YOU CRAZY SON OF A BANANA!!!"
long story short,
The car crash involved other 2 cars. So three cars in total. And it just so happens Jinx and Caitlyn were participants. The car windows shattered, and the others involved in the car crash didn't look half as alive as Jinx and Caitlyn. It's called Main Character Plot Armor™. And they have the premium armor too because plot. The others looked pretty damn dead. Soon, the other enforcers arrived at the place of the car crash as well, just to investigate and help whoever was alive anymore. That being only our two plot armored gal pals.
(spoiler, the author makes it as long as they can just for dat comedic effect)
I won't name any enforcers because endorcers suck.
But they helped Caitlyn and Jinx tho :)))
Their car was pretty damn wrecked. And they had no way of going to the theme park, sadly. Fortunately, the enforcers offered to help another enforcer and give em a ride.
~Ekko and Vi's party planning catastrophe~
"YOU'RE DOING IT WROOOOOOOOOOONG" Ekko yelled, seeing how Vi was decorating the cake. Neither of them were exactly talented when it came to bakery, but at least they tried.
"AND SINCE WHEN WERE YOU GORDON RAMSEY??????" Vi shouted back. SHE WAS TRYING
"JINX DOESN'T LIKE THAT SHADE OF PIIIIIIIINK!!!"
"HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT?"
"WELL MAKE IT DARKER, PUT A LITTLE MORE COLORING IN IT"
"ok :D"
It was a truly fucking horrible image. All the walls in the kitchen were splointed and covered in cake batter and colored whipped cream. The music was playing rather loud in the background, too, as they claim they work better when there's music.
At least they were wearing aprons :D that's a plus
And as you can clearly imagine, they were doing GREAT
-ly horrible.
The cake barely looked like a cake. And the other decorations weren't even out of that bag yet. Ekko chose to not say anything. He can't risk destroying Vi's morale, not when she was his trusted helper in organizing this important party.
The cake resembled more a drugged, 😩💦🚫ed, $u1c1ded heart, rather than a NORMAL CAKE.
How did this happen? Well, Ekko came with the idea to cut the cake layers in the shape of a heart. It was a good idea but the execution WAS POOR.
And Vi, thinking she was a pretty well seasoned chef, offered to cut it.
She did not cut it well.
And it was 3 times smaller.
The first time she didn't get the heart done, like hell did she ask for help. Well, instead, Vi continued trimming off excess cake around the edges. Somehow, she always would make it even more deformed. Kinda like a celebrity's face once they get one to three plastic surgeries. It all goes downhill from there, brothers and ladies.
Ekko was too busy to see what Vi was doing, too. He was setting up the speakers for tonight.
(Look, it isn't the fanciest sound equipment, okay? Not since Jinx bought a nerf gun and literally shooted everything she found in the house. Including the TV's screen. Ekko is surprised it still isn't shattered or something. But let's be real for a sec. If Jinx is gonna destroy something, she won't use common ways to do so. She will destroy it 💖stylishly💖 and 👹fashionably unpredictable👹)
OH, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? They'll use the cake as it is. Here's why:
1. Jinx is 100% NOT gonna observe its bitchy shape.
2. They'll be too busy eating it.
3. It was too goddamn late to try and make another 3 cake layers.
Ekko sighed. And remembered: hey, this is Jinx. She doesn't give 3 skeedadled fucks about anything being perfect.
So, Ekko, pls stop being a Jhin kinnie.
Four-ever stop. Pls.
(Omg im gr8 at puns. Get it? 8? 8÷2 is 4. GOT THE JOKE???)
~Back at it with Caitlyn and Jinx~
Well, finally.
The cops drive so slow, Jinx was not even surprised anymore. If anything, she should be thankful she is accompanied by Caitlyn of all. She seems to drive the fastest among all :<
Which is still 60 km per hour.
Never fricking mind that, they were finally standing in front of the theme park's gates. About time, too.
And in contrast to Jinx's imagination, the theme park was fairly.. Empty?
She imagined a shit ton of people having fun, riding each and every rollercoaster, playing every rigged game, children overdosing on caramelized apples and so on...
But no, not really. It was fairly empty for such a fun looking place. I mean, of course, there were some groups of friends and small families here and there.
But nothing close to what Jinx thought.
Well,
IT WASN'T NECESSARILY A BAD THING!
No annoying waiting in line for a single ride! No waiting lines for games, or food or literally anything!
And Caitlyn was *rich*, too.
"LET'S RIDE THE BIGGEST ROLLERCOASTER, CAIT" Jinx suddenly yelled, as soon as she entered the theme park, taking Caitlyn by surprise. Really, she should've gotten used to it already.
Jinx was pointing like a child to the biggest ride she saw. And Caitlyn's eyes followed.
Not even three minutes since they were there and Caitlyn was already feeling sick.
The truth is Caitlyn had a small, little, insignificant fear of rollercoasters. She never actually rode one but the thought was just too scary for her.
What if something is wrong? What if we fucking fall to our inevitable death and never turn back again?
What if we're left deeply injured?
To be fair, Caitlyn did envy Jinx, just a little bit, regarding her willingness to try all kinds of shit.
Anything bad can happen on those rides. What if Vi slash/and Ekko call? What if they drop their phones?
Just the thought was inducing Caitlyn anxiety and sickness.
"EARTH NUMBER 69 TO CAITLYN HELLOOOOOO" Jinx yelled, waving her hand in front of Caitlyn.
"Is my mic even on???" She whispered to herself still waving her hand.
Caitlyn suddenly catches Jinx's hair, stopping her from waving any more.
"Let's go ride that shit." Caitlyn said, firmly and determined.
Jinx almost pissed herself in surprise and horror a bit.
"Who the hell possesed you?!" Jinx asked, getting dragged towards the rollercoaster she pointed at herself just some minutes ago.
"Fizzaroli"
"NO WAY YOU WATCHED HELLUVA BOSS???"
"JOKES ON YOU YOUR SISTER IS MY GIRLFRIEND, I KNOW EVERYTHING YOU'D WATCH!!"
"OH I HATE YOUUUUUUU"
They argued as they made their way towards the rollercoaster.
As they walked fastly, Caitlyn was slowing down more and more, Jinx not seeming to notice until she stopped completely.
"Hey, wh-" Jinx wanted to ask. "Forgot my wallet." Caitlyn turned back, towards their car, grip still on Jinx's wrist, carrying her around like a fucking puppet.
"Nice, let's hope you didn't forget your money." Jinx remarks, petty as always. I mean, come on peeps. She is like this. If she isn't, then why is the 'Jinx being a little piece of shit' tag so popular on AO3?? I see it on nearly every fic with Jinx???? I love writing petty Jinx.
"Oh shut up." Caitlyn threw a chuckle.
Good thing they weren't too far from their car.
And Caitlyn, right after entering the parking lot, she reached her hand in her little purse, searching the car key.
Jinx was enthusiastic, she was moving like there was no tomorrow. They had just a single day to try all the things in this theme park, after all. She quickly opened the door, took Caitlyn's wallet and slammed the door back shut so loudly, that now Caitlyn could have group therapy with Ekko, both traumatized by the way Jinx slams doors shut.
Caitlyn is surprised the door is still somewhat not broken, but, well. Yea. Shimmer power™ ig.
Jinx was not moving, but sitting still, staring in Caitlyn's soul.
Caitlyn was getting freaked out by whatever the hell this was.
Suddenly, the blue headed piece of shit threw the wallet at Caitlyn with such immense force and power of surprise that Caitlyn literally fell down, her legs not being able to withstand such immense power that Caitlyn fell over. She did a flip too.
"HA. Works every fucking time." Jinx laughed her ass off at the image of Caitlyn on the ground, her wallet right besides her head. Poor woman looked like she got robbed on the street by a masked, common thief.
Caitlyn gets up, "You're lucky it's your fucking birthday." And takes theother girl by the wrist again, dragging her off towards the roller coaster.
Jinx wasn't necessarily okay with being dragged off, she was NOT a bottom, guys, but well. Fuck it.
~Hiii, did you miss Ekko and Vi? Admit it, you missed them~
"Holy shit, it looks EDIBLE!!!" Vi exclaims after finishing decorating the cake.
Ekko was busy putting up the house decorations. He was up, on two chairs, stacked one on top of the other, he had his misplaced confidence that he surely isn't gonna fall.
Turns out putting on the pendant banners was harder than it looked. But they looked pretty! :D
However, he could turn his head towards Vi and check the cake.
"HOLY SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT IT LOOKS EDIBLE!!!"
"WE'RE THE BEST TEAM EVER."
"HELL YEA" Ekko exclaimed, cheering. He took a small break, and said "Now get yo ass a chair and help me put on the other stuff."
"Aight, let me just put this baby in the fridge."
She took the cake in both her handa and carried over, so carefully to the fridge.
Ekko jumps down from the top of the chair, and Vi almost *too* dramatically slips with the cake.
Ekko's nearly had a heart attack.
"Got ya, bitchboy." Vi giggled, getting on her feet normally. Like nothing happened, she took one hand off the cake's plate and opened the fridge door.
Y'know, Vi, unlike her sister, she shuts doors so gently you wouldn't believe she, the same girl, beats the shit out of Sevika/muscly men every single act in Arcane.
~Timeskip brought to you by my Halloween clown costume~
Ekko was getting the paper cups, the party hats and the piñata ready. Although none of the invited people were children, they all loved a good piñata, more or less. STARING AT YOU, CAITLYN!!!
Vi was arranging the table, what was left of the pendant banners and the candles on the cake.
And it was pretty much done. The place looked terribly good, actually!
Ekko and Vi were absolutely sure Jinx would like, no, LOVE THIS.
And it was fairly early too. It was only 15:09.
Maybe Ekko had time for one more surprise...
"Vi, what's your gift for the birthday grill?" He asked, randomly.
"I bought her a 190 cm super fluffy shark plushie."
"Excuse-a-what-now?" He asked, not even believing it.
"Yeah, you are both so fucking short a fucking plushie is taller than y'all." She said, smiling widely. "It's in the car, dunno how it even fit in there."
"YOU MOTHERF-"
Cut because it is not pg13 anymore, my bros.
...
...
"What about you? What did you get her?" Vi asked.
"Oh I got us Stolas and Blitz cosplays."
"No fucking way you should've bought Millie and Moxxie cosplays, none of y'all are tall enough for Stolas." Vi commented.
"Oh shut the hell up. Stolas and Blitz are way funkier than M&M. And me and Jinx prefer them, anyway."
WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE PHOTOS OF YOU TWO COSPLAYING ON INSTAGRAM, LOVELIES <333
"Oh, and maybe, Vi, we have time for another thing."
"What thing?"
~Back at the usual shenanigans with Cait and Jinx y'all 😩🤌~
"Admit it, you were scared as shit." Jinx repeated over and over to Caitlyn, who was still a bit nauseous after the biggest ride in the theme park. Even though they rode it 2 hours ago.
Maybe trying that so confidently was a mistake, after all.
For Caitlyn anyway, Jinx was feeling fine. Well, as fine as she could be but you get the point.
"I was not." Caitlyn refused to admit.
Her face being green tells another fucking story, though. She shouldn't have eaten fancy-ass rich people food before she visited Jinx. Never.
Well that was a problem for Caitlyn. Not for Jinx.
"Mama Caitlyn I wanna ride the rollercoaster again." Jinx turns her head at Caitlyn, to assert her inevitable dominance.
"God fucking damnit not again" Caitlyn whispered to herself.
"I heard you. BUT I WANNA" Jinx insisted, like a fucking child. A child Caitlyn wanted to dropkick.
"How about we hitch a ride?"
"NOW WHO THE FFFFFUCK DARES JOIN IN LIKE A SON OF A BANANA" Jinx shouted. She didn't really see who talked. It was certainly a bit familiar, but she couldn't recognise it.
"Ya heard that, Vi? Maybe we should leave."
"Aw man."
OH FUCK THEY ACTUALLY CAME!!!
>:0000
"YOOO Y'ALL CAME" Jinx shouted, running towards the both of them, followed by Caitlyn, slowly, nauseously walking towards Vi.
Of course, Vi immediately observed Caitlyn and how shitty she was probably feeling. She ran towards her, concerned and visibly freaked.
"Mai babie r u okay" she asked, taking her in a hug.
"I do not- I need a coffee and a break"
"oh mai poor babie :'<"
Meanwhile, on the *happi* couple side,
Jinx jumped in Ekko's arms, placing her arms on his shoulders. They were truly happy to see each other. Jinx planted a little smooch on Ekko's cheek, both smiling like two idiots.
"My, that problem with the firelights didn't really take you long, huh?" She asked, kind of figuring out it wasn't really something related to the Firelights. But like hell was she gonna ruin it.
Hey, she was an antagonistic character but she isn't an asshole.
"Yea, yea, just a minor problem." Ekko tried to sound as normal as possible. "So, how about we go ride the rollercoasters?" He asked all the other girls.
"Little man, I don't think Caitlyn can take another ride." Vi pouted. But she was gonna stay with Caitlyn. She was far more important than a rollercoaster, anyway.
"LET'S GOOOOO" Jinx shouted, almost interrupted Vi.
Ekko took his hands off her, in an attempt to drop her. His arms were getting a bit tired, after all.
"You're carrying me." Jinx stared at him, whispering.
"It's my birthday. You have to." She whispered, ever so creepy.
He sighed and smiled, carried her, similarly to bridal style, her hands still wrapped around his neck, leaving Vi and Caitlyn behind to just.. Take a moment and sit down, help Caitlyn out, maybe grab some snacks.
~
Jinx nearly even reaches the height limit for the rollercoaster. Dwarf is so fucking small, bro.
But she already tried it like 2 times so of course they were gonna let her.
And yAAY, Ekko was here too :'D
They hopped on in the brightly colored wagons, both tightly securing the safety belts.
Out of context, "I'd make out with you right now." Jinx spat out as the brightly colored wagons started moving, slowly towards the top, catching speed every second.
"I dunno how you aren't yet in jail." He chuckled, thinking she was merely joking.
"I'll soon be. That's for sure."
She smiled peacefully.
And before they could even realize, holy hell they were already getting right at the top, the wagons ready to get ridiculously fast as they go down.
In the top.
It really felt nice.
The few seconds of peacefulness, having the autumn breeze blow gently through the locks of your hair. The few seconds you can see almost all the theme park, from high up. Before you get thrown down on the ride, suddenly so fast.
That's why both of them simply loved visiting theme parks.
They're not like Caitlyn and Vi, who both enjoy dates in a quiet, sober restaurant.
They're not like other gorls 👹👹👹
But still. It must be quite nice to be on top, doesn't it?
Even if only for a few seconds.
They fell down along with the other people in the wagons. They never quite get used to falling like that. Especially Jinx. Not saying she doesn't enjoy Caitlyn's company (well, she doesn't. But pls bare with me for the poetic points, ok? ), but being with Ekko's somewhat different. It's one to hang around with people you barely know and another one to hang around someone you've known for a lifetime.
Jinx was having so much fun today it was ridiculous. She overdosed on cotton candy, as Caitlyn couldn't stop her, she rode the rollercoaster at least 3 times now, STILL COUNTING and Ekko was able to come too :D
Yes, it was wonderful. But you know what could put the cherry on top of the cake?
They were still falling down on the ride.
And Ekko thought he could take a chance. Well, he wasn't a big fun of PDA. It was disrespectful and rude. But, because, hey it's his gf's birthday today, he planted a short kiss on her cheek.
She was so excited and agitated again that she almost didn't observe.
But she actually did.
She stopped šçrëēçhïñg like a devil for two seconds and looked, wide eyed at Ekko.
"AWWW YOU LOVABLE DORK :DD"
He just couldn't help but smile like a lovable dork.
The ride ended in a few minutes. Ekko was slightly dizzy, just a bit, but nothing he couldn't ignore, while Jinx was completely ready for another one million rides because hey, fuck human laws/physics and logical stuff.
~Timeskip brought to you by Braum's poro~
"ÃGÆIN, ßÏTÇH" Jinx demonically screeched, as she failed to kill one of the little soldiers made out of plastic.
For context, do you know those little shops or however they're called you find in theme parks? Where you... Idk do something and you get a prize? Are you familiar with those games where you shoot little somethings and you get prizes only if the things you shoot actually go down? Yeah, well, they are scams. But Jinx doesn't know that and besides, she has a god complex on her birthday so just maybe let her be?
She was an awesome shooter. But the game was rigged.
Caitlyn already payed 6 rounds.
Ekko and Vi both tried to convince this blue bitch the game is rigged but she wasn't gonna listen until she got the unicorn plushie (oh wow despicable me reference how original)
This would be the seventh round.
Jinx perfectly shot her target three times consecutively.
"Your situation is really gettin' sad, kiddo." The game owner pitied her, somewhat sarcastically smirking, earning triggered looks from Vi, Ekko and Caitlyn. The only gesture missing from him was him, counting the money earned.
"Another word and you're eating my fist, bitch boy." Vi rudely showed him the middle finger.
Ngl she kinda scared the poor dude.
But he was an ass so he deserved it :)
Caitlyn didn't even need to have Jinx yell 'AGAIN'. She just simply placed more money on the counter, not even expecting Jinx to back out anymore.
While Jinx was concentrated, focused on her little, bitchy target of a soldier figure, her brain light bulbs lit up.
SHE HAD A GODDAMN ZAPPER AT HER >:000
ATTACHED AS A KEYCHAIN TO THE BELT LOOPS :0000
Not only was it stylish but it was also handy. And nobody suspected a thing, because it looked fairly childish. Like a dollar store gun.
Quickly, she took it, spun it around her finger for the *sexy gun user aesthetic (that she completely owned)* and effortlessly hit the target perfectly one time, along with other two random figures, just to flex on the game owner.
"Are they dead, yet?" She grinned at the man behind the counter.
At this point, nobody was surprised. Well, besides the game owner and the few people who were still in the theme park and saw.
".. U-um, sure! Take w-whatever plushie you need and leave me t-the hell alone you c-crazy bitch!" He said, shivering in fear, hiding behind the counter.
"Glad we had a deal." Jinx mischievously smiled, taking the unicorn plushie from the shelf.
But why stop there? He said 'take whatever plushie you need', didn't he?
She could legally take every plushie!
So that she did. She picked every fucking plushie she could reach at and shared them with the others. Ekko got the otter plushie. So they had matching otter plushies now :D fun fact about otters: when they sleep, they hold hands so they don't get lost :3
"Have a good day, sir!" She waved at him, leaving.
~
They had a lotta fun. It was already 19:20. I have to admit, they spent quite some time in here. But it was all worth it. This bitch emptied half of Caitlyn's wallet, but you know what? Even Caitlyn had a good time here.
They hopped in their cars, Caitlyn and Vi in their car and the others in their own car. After all, they couldn't let Jinx see Vi's gift for her, could they now?
The back seats of Ekko's car were absolutely fucking full of plushies.
It was fucking hilarious, too.
The whole ride was hilarious.
Some roads were, at some point, completely empty. So, Ekko and Vi took the occasion to just *HONK HONK, BITCH* at each other.
I mean, at this point they could just communicate thru morse code and nobody would know.
Great, now I wonder if there will be any conspiracy theorists around here, trying to guess what they were communicating about :<
But anyway.
It's a fucking road.
I don't need to narrate the entire fucking 1 hour long car trip, do I? Its boring, and I'm wasting my finger energy when we have a full blown all night long party head,,, which is probably won't narrate because I just wanna finish this fic cuz I thought Jinx's birthday was on 28 October, but it's actually on 10 October and I'm already late as shit and I also have homeworks to do and a Halloween costume to make.
~Timeskip brought to u by me trying to sew a short puff sleeve~
Lol here they were, in front of Jinx's and Ekko's home.
Jinx absolutely expected this, but she knows she won't ruin it. She knows they worked their asses off.
Just as they were about to enter, Jinx can't help but scratch the itch and ask (lol that was a weird metaphor) :
"Hey, where are Vi and Cait?"
Of course she knew they were in their car but what the hell were they doing?
"Dunno. Maybe they found a really wholesome meme and now they're discussing it? You know how they are." Ekko tried to reply. I mean. Cait and her wholesome memes 🥰
"Maybe." She mumbled.
"Also, I'm gonna need you to cover your eyes." Ekko left the key in the keyhole, door still closed. He successfully changed the subject, giving her a checkered bandana from his pocket.
'Oh YEA BABY THIS IS IT' she thought to herself, getting excited.
She was imagining how nice they decorated the house, how much fun they would have all night while she put on the bandana on her eyes.
"Done?" He asked.
She nodded fastly, Jinx couldn't wait anymore. She was gonna explode if she waited three more seconds.
Ekko took her by the hand. She could hear the door being opened. She was dragged inside. Steps could be heard, supposedly not just Ekko's foot steps. The door closed.
"You can take that off :D" Ekko announced her. He could only imagine how happy she was gonna be.
As quick as she could, Jinx took the bandana off her eyes.
It was nothing like she expected, though.
She imagined a colorfully decorated room, to be put simply.
But the lights were off and although it was pretty damn dark, she could just sense no one was around.
Was it a joke?
OR OOOH, MAYBE IT WAS A SURPRISE PARTY?
OR WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL?
"ˢʰⁱᵗ" she could hear from the kitchen.
"ˢʰⁱᵗ ⁱⁿᵈᵉᵉᵈ, ᵉᵏᵏᵒ." That must be Caitlyn, Jinx was sure. What they were doing in the kitchen, though?
"ᵗʰᵉ ʰᵉˡˡ ᵈᵒ ʷᵉ ᵈᵒ?"
'Maybe It's a search party. Who knows?' She thought.
In the dark, she went ahead, towards the kitchen. Maybe she'd find out what was that.
Something sat on her way. Something big... Awfully big and soft.
Unfortunately, she didn't see it soon enough to not hit it. She fell, she would have hit her hip, but fortunately she still had the zapper attached to the belt loop on her jeans.
Also she must be extra extra lucky today cuz that shit did not break 😳
She got up, continuing her walk to the kitchen.
Fuck, this was beginning to look like a badly recorded spy movie.
'ᵈᵒ ʷᵉ ʰᵃᵛᵉ ᵃⁿʸ ᶜᵃⁿᵈˡᵉˢ??' Ekko whispered in the kitchen.
'Candles?' She thought. Why candles?
'ⁱᵗˢ ʸᵒᵘʳ ʰᵒᵘˢᵉ, ˢʰᵒᵘˡᵈⁿ'ᵗ ʸᵒᵘ ᵏⁿᵒʷ?" Vi asked him.
But why were they whispering?
'ʷᵉˡˡ ⁿᵒ?? ʲⁱⁿˣ ᵘˢᵉᵈ ᵃˡˡ ᵒᶠ ᵗʰᵉᵐ ᶠᵒʳ ʰᵉʳ ˢᵃᵗᵃⁿⁱᶜ ᵍᵉⁿˢʰⁱⁿ ˢᵘᵐᵐᵒⁿⁱⁿᵍ ʳⁱᵗʸᵃˡˢ. ᵗʰⁱⁿᵍˢ ʰᵃᵛᵉⁿ'ᵗ ᵇᵉᵉⁿ ᵗʰᵉ ˢᵃᵐᵉ ˢⁱⁿᶜᵉ ʸᵒⁱᵐⁱʸᵃ ʰᵃᵈ ᵃ ʳᵉʳᵘⁿ." He whispered.
'Oh shit he saw me :(. Well at least maybe he doesn't know I took money from his card to wish for Yoi' Jinx thought to herself.
She was right by the kitchen's doorframe. Peeking at them.
Honestly, she was mildly surprised they didn't see her pink eyes in the dark. They told her in the past how her eyes could be mistaken for lanterns in the dark.
At this point they were indistinctly whispering to one another.
"Guys? The fuck happened?" Jinx asked, interrupting whatever meeting they had going on there.
"mother fucking powder?" Vi was the first one to react.
"Yeah, more like white, snorting powder. Anyway, why are you all here???" She asked.
"Well, the power went out riiiiight as we were trying to surprise you.." Ekko explained.
Well that was unfortunate. The perks of being a jinx, i guess.
"Oh great, someone pass me a phone, mine's dead."
Jinx quickly got Caitlyn's phone.
Perfect, she had a lantern now.
"I'ma be right back, you clowns" she giggled cutely
She went carefully in her own room. For what she remembered, she still had some glow sticks from the last Halloween. They weren't gonna shine too much but at least they were gonna replace candles.
She sprints back to the kitchen.
"HËĪ I'M BACK, DID YOU MISS ME, ᵃᵈᵐⁱᵗ ⁱᵗ ʸᵒᵘ ᵐⁱˢˢᵉᵈ ᵐᵉ" she joked, before tossing everyone a glow stick.
"Perfect :0" I'ma let you imagine who said that bc i honestly do not know who would say that.
"But we have another thing for you." Caitlyn started.
"I'm curious now." Jinx clapped her hands quietly. This time, she didn't know what they planned.
"Your wonderful sister made you a cake" Vi smiled, opening the fridge to take out the dessert.
You know, this happened perfectly. Right now, there's no way Jinx will be able see the cake's major imperfections. So, Vi rejoiced internally.
Once the dessert was on the table in the living room - where there were the most decorations and stuff - Jinx couldn't wait to see it, pointing her glow stick as close to the cake as possible.
She loved it so much she burst out laughing.
"My- WHO THE HELL MADE THIS?" She asked, laughing.
"Vi" Caitlyn and Ekko point simultaneously at Vi.
"Guys we should call her Gordon Ramsay from now on" Jinx joked. Although she was laughing nonstop, she was unironically Mcloving it.
Soon enough, they cut the cake in exactly four slices. Turns out Vi exaggerated with the sugar, almost causing Jinx to enter a sugary coma, but they're all good now.
They had karaoke for some hours. You know, It was really sweet seeing them all fighting for who takes what character in House of Asmodeus™.
Because i love this kind of shit, I'ma tell you whay characters they chose too: Moxxie would be chosen by Caitlyn cuz yez, Millie and Verosika, Verosika too cuz Millie has too few voicelines in there, Asmodeus himself played by Ekko cuz why not, yes that's a valid reason and Fizzarolli as Jinx cuz they're pretty much both clowns.
But karaoke is honestly not the only thing they did. Of course no. They played Mario party :)
"IDIOT"
"I'M SORRY I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO USE THIS SHITTY REMOTE"
"its not a goDDAMN REMOTE, VI!!!!!!!!!" Jinx argued.
~TEAM EKKO AND CAITLYN WON THIS ROUND! ~
"FUUUUUUUUUCK OFFFFF" Jinx and Vi yelled simultaneously
"STAY MAD BITCH" Ekko flipped over the sisters ironically.
"I WILL DISOWN YOU EKKO" Jinx yelled. At this point I'd be surprised if she didn't develop yet a throat tumor or some shit.
"YOU'RE NOT MY MOM"
"no... I'm your MOMMY"
"Alriiiight suddenly Caitlyn and I are thirsty, we will go grab some water... Far away. Please don't try to give each other sex changes, aight? Aight, love yall" Vi took Caitlyn by her wrist and sprinted out.
"U LOOK LIKE A FUCKING CHILD"
"WELL THIS CHILD'S... GONNA GIVE U SEX CHANGE"
"u wouldn't"
"yeah ur right"
"lets make up?"
"okeysies"
"ALRIGHT KIDS, LETS CONTINUE THE MARIO PARTY" Vi burst in the room with Caitlyn.
"I'MA BEAT YO ASS" Timebomb said in unison 🥰🥰🥰
... Ah, I love being a shitty AO3 writer.
Also, reader, are you ,perhaps, familiar with the Jackbox?
Well you better be cuz I ain't explaining that.
Yes they played that too.
I'm not even gonna narrate because you see, reader, that's the beauty of your imagination. You get to visualize what shit went down as these little idiots played that. Please do.
Great, you have dream material for tonight!!!
Hooray!
~~~
At around 6 in the morning Caitlyn and Vi left too. It was absurd how much fun they had, they even forgot to drink coffee to stay awake. Especially Jinx. Well, it wasn't like she needed coffee anyway. She had shimmer™
Right now, 7 AM. Ekko and Jinx were still pretty much wide awake. But don't make any mistake, they weren't gonna clean up around there. They could do that later.
Now, they were just in the bed, cuddling while watching a movie. After that night, it seemed a quiet thing really was what they needed.
"You know.." Ekko started, quietly. Jinx turned her gaze at him, curious of what he was gonna say.
"I have another gift for you."
She was even more curious now. She almost thought she was getting spoiled at this point.
He got up, gently, leaving her waiting.
He quickly came back, with something extremely familiar in his hands. He held it like it was one of the most precious things in the whole world.
Jinx got up from the bed to see it better. There was no way it was what she actually thought it was.
But once she got a better look at it?
Yes, yes it was what she thought it was.
It was her old paintball gun that she did herself. She used to carry this around almost everywhere. They would play almost everyday. And they always had fun.
It looked a bit changed though. Better.
It looked repainted and the grip was decorated with puffy stickers. Similar to the ones Jinx would use as a little kid.
"No way.." She started.
"You still have this? I thought I've lost it years ago." Jinx was really surprised, but in a good way.
"And you took good care of it, too!" She smiled, taking it in her hands.
"I did, do you like it?"
"I love it. Especially the way you redecorated it. Does it still work?"
"Of course." He smiled, knowing what she'll say next.
"How about we go play some good ol' paintball in the weekend? Maybe on Sunday?" She suggested. And Ekko was right, it's what he expected of her.
"Alright but I'm not gonna let you kick my ass."
"Sooo no ass kicking?"
"No"
"Aww... But I guess it's fine either way! We can kick other people's asses!" She giggled enthusiastically, making him smile even wider.
...
...
"Happy birthday, Jinx."
"I fucking love you" she sighed, smiling.
And if u thought this was wholesome, lemme tell you they fucked after 👹💅
Hell ya
