Soo I was kinda sad that I really didn't care much for the wlw ship in arcane but really liked jayvik, then I figured out that jayvik just literally hits like almost every trope I like:
- Outwardly strong character being vulnerable/pathetic
- Outwardly fragile character being powerful/dominant
- best friends to lovers/platonic soulmates
- Madness/corruption arcs
- Ancient magic/eldritch horror
- Nonhuman/monster forms
Which I feel many of these aren't that common in wlw ships? (If you have recs pls tell me <3)
But then. I realised there is a very similar one. That I happen to be obsessed with as well:
POV you bring your loved one back with forbidden magic and then they turn into a monster
