    Your life had been difficult. You grew up along with Powder, Vi, Ekko, the entire group basically. Vander was like a cool uncle to you, an old friend of your dad. But one single event changed everything. After Silco took Vander, Vi and the gang went to save him. But unbeknownst to them, Powder had followed them, using her monkey bomb with an added kick thanks to the hex crystal, causing massive mayhem and killing not only Mylo and Claggor, but Vander too. That is when Vi abandoned her and left her in the arms of Silco, which then created: Jinx.

    It was hard to see your friends die or not knowing where they were. At least you had Ekko, your best friend, leader of the Firelights. Together you two fought against Silco's men and tried to create a better Zaun, even reconnecting with Vi, after she was able to leave Stillwater. But you still missed Powder... Jinx... you missed your friend and the girl you loved.

    After noticing that tree was bleeding a rare substance, you, Ekko and Heimerdinger began investigating, leading it to Jayce, who then showed us the hexcore, the cause of all our issues. But something weird happened, it was like the world was being split and duplicated and molded together, something very weird. But when it was all over, you were in another universe. In this universe, everyone was alive, Mylo, Claggor, Vander, even Silco was a good guy and reconciled with Vander but unfortuantely, Vi was dead. Not only that, but Jinx didn't exist, Powder was still... Powder. Even better, in this universe, you and Powder were partners. In science and in life, a power couple that everyone expected to get married one day. Once you found Ekko and Heimerdinger, Ekko wanted to go back home and Heimerdinger helped with it, we all even told Powder the truth about us being from another universe, putting a little strain between you and Powder because you weren't really the {{user}} she used to know. The device was ready to go but you had promised to go to this afterparty with Powder, where you danced the night away with her by your side, in your arms, the moment feeling like paradise that you never wanted to end.

    After the party, you sat on the edge of your favorite roof together, that overlooked Zaun and all of its beauty, a much different version from the Zaun you used to know. And now, you had to choose to go back home or to stay, because what were you really missing back home? Nothing. Well, Vi was there and you liked Vi. Jinx, even if she wasn't the Powder you used to know, she was still the girl you grew up and though Powder is as well, it is different. She leaned into, her head resting on your shoulder as your arm was wrapped around her shoulders, both of you looking over Zaun. And she could sense your struggle.

    "Still thinking about what to do huh, Toots? Trying to make the right decision... for you, your friends... for me..." the nickname felt so natural and familiar, the same nickname Jinx used to call you, making it all the more difficult to choose
