#vanco #zaundads
digital painting of vander and silco from arcane. The characters are against a bright red background, with acid green highlights. Silco has his eyes closed, his face pressed against Vander's neck, holding him gently on the small of his back with one hand, and holding his hand with the other. It's an intimate pose, like they are dancing , except for the fact that Vander is slumped over, possibly dead, and has a big bright stab wound in his back.

Another work I did for the Vanco Halloween Exchange (@vancohalloween.bsky.social), a gift for @plnie.bsky.social (PlNie @ ao3) following their prompt "the spark of a revolution" and imagining a first meeting between my beloveds... happy ending is there if you squint I promise
#vanco #zaundads
B&W comic page. In the first panel young miner Silco is shouting while holding fliers. Miners walk past him, paying no attention to him. In the second panel, Vander is staring at him, asking a fellow, older worker "... who is that?", to which the man replies "Who, Silco? I'd stay away from him, if I were you." B&W comic page. First panel: Silco is trying to get the attention of a miner. Vander's coworker's voice is shown in balloons out of frame. He's talking about Silco: "He's one of those "Nation of Zaun" separatists. A real hot-head, that one. Always starting shit he can't finish. "Second panel: extreme closeup of Vander staring at Silco. The other man is still talking, though Vander seemingly isn't paying attention to his words: "He's passionate, I'll give him that. Almost got his face caved in by an Enforcer the other day." Third panel: Vander starts walking towards Silco, while his coworker looks at him surprised, cutting short his monologue: "Trust me, lad, stay in your lane, and-". Fourth panel: Vander approaches Silco, smiling at him. He says: "Hi! Silco, right? Can I have one?" Silco looks at him, a little taken aback, and replies "Uh? Ah... sure.". The voice of the older man comments: "... well. I tried to warn him." Fifth panel: Their fingers brush as Vander takes a flier. Silco says: "We meet up twice a week, uh..." to which Vander introduces himself simply saying "Vander". The flier shows the words "OUR ZAUN DESERVES RESPECT. WE ARE ALL BROTHERS UNDER PILTOVER'S REGIME". The older man comments: "Eh- it will probably be fine." B&W illustration. A whisp of smoke shows moments of Vander and Silco's shared life and history. Them looking at each other, Felicia dancing, Silco throwing the granade, Vander attacking Silco in the Pilt, older Vander and older Silco back to back, Silco's scar visible, Vi and Jinx's silhouettes as they fight, and finally Vander and Silco happily together again in the AU. The man's voice leaves a final comment: "After all... what's the worst that could happen?"

I mean tbh a kiss is nothing compared to whatever the fuck this is
Arcane season 1 episode 3, Vander slumps against Silco’s shoulder and front with Silco still holding the knife in him that he took from Vander me held onto for nearly a decade to stab him with, Silco turns his head to speak directly into Vander’s ear as if they weren’t already skin to skin

DAY AFTER REVENGE TIME!!!! ... maybe? #vanco #zaundads
simple monochrome sketch comic page featuring vander, silco, and felicia from arcane, intended as a sequel of a previous comic page. in the first big panel, vander is kissing silco's ear from behind, putting his hands on his arms. silco clearly wasn't expecting that, and has a shocked expression on his face. in the bg is felicia, looking at them with a shocked pikachu face. in the second panel, silco is frozen in place and flustered, his heart literally bumping out of his chest cartoon style, while felicia holds him laughing and points at Vander, calling him a perv twice as he insists it was just payback. considering how flustered and embarrassed he is, it's pretty clear it was Not only that.

Fic Title: Signposts of a Revolution Author: mangotangerine Summary: Sometimes one just needs a soft, loving touch to bring them back from the edge as they work themselves to the bone for Zaunite independence. After another setback that has Silco making 2+2=5 for, he finds himself in need of that soft, loving touch. Luckily for him, he has Vander, who knows how to take Silco apart and put him back together the right way around. OR Silco is bone-deep exhausted and Vander takes care of him, lovingly, and then carnally.

Been thinking about Silco's speech from #Arcane Season 2, and while it's lovely (one of the only parts I liked), he would NEVER.

There is none of Silco's orange. It's Jinx's blue. This is her excuse to stop fighting.

The hex-crystal falls from her lips. It's her words and desires.
