  • Heimerdinger being suddenly onboard for the dangerous time travel experiments

    As I see it, Heimerdinger was ready to give up, when he was removed from the PiltoverdCouncil by Jayce, his former pupil. He tried previously to dissuade Jayce from using Hextech like this.

    Then he found Ekko creating a community in Zaun with an inspiring ingenuity despite pretty much everything else happening, so Heimerdinger decided stayed and helped out while teaching Ekko on how to improve on his designs. Heimerdinger wants to improve the world after all - but safely - and sees his opportunity here.

    Then in season 2 they wind up in alternative dimensions due to Hexcore shenanigans, because Heimerdinger wants to help Ekko sustain his community. Jayce ends up in over where the “final battle” already happened. Heimerdinger lands in one where Hextech apparently does not exist at all and the city is better off because of it missing. One where Heimerdinger himself can probably be more relaxed as he has more time for his stuff and has to deal less with politics and betrayal.

    Ekko arives 3 years later. And Ekko wants to go back no matter the cost. And this puts Heimerdinger in a pickle: the last time he tried to dissuade his his pupil the results were catastrophic. Ekko would have worked it alone (or would probably have roped in Powder) endangering not only himself but atleast Powder, probably even the Zaun/Piltover (mind you, Ekkos knowledge about Hextech is very limited, while Heimerdinger oversaw the research most of the time - and Hex is notoriously unstable).

    So to protect the timeline/city/Powder/peace he liked as well as helping Ekko get back to his community the reasonable conclusion would be to help despite not being keen of the idea. The ~4 second limit of the Z-Drive comes from the instability of the Hexshards. Any longer and it goes boom, potentially killing people around. And this limit is what he uses to break Victors mask in the end for Jayce to intervene.









  • Thank your for your insight💕

    More damatic emotions get noticed more. But art can capture subtler experiences too.

    Of course, ‘everyone can be artist’. But wouldn’t the lack of the dramatic lead to a lesser chance of ‘making it big’?

    (Not that I have the desire or the skills to do that - I mean if I could spontaneously choose a super skill it would probably painting - just to probably mostly draw furry porn /jk unless)

    Pay attention to all the qualities of your experience and you’ll notice it’s not just the intense ones that have vibrancy.

    I will, once I get my brain in order. I am having a hard time recalling positive experiences right now, especially ones that are “vibrant” in any way. But I think that is the depression.

    (In my opinion everyone should try their hand at a creative hobby, no matter if classic or unconventional, and I am trying to find smething that ‘sparks joy’ but its hard right now.)
