In the marriage au, does Mel encourage Jinx to have contact with her sister? Regardless of silco's thoughts on the matter? What does she think of jinx's courtship with ekko?
If we go by the FnF timeline, she absolutely encourages Jinx and Vi, subtly and with 'Oops, you're at the same venue, fancy that!' hijinks, to reconcile. (Subconsciously longing for the sort of reconciliation that she wishes were possible with Ambessa, maybe?)
It's also a huge source of strife between her and Silco, as he considers that beyond her purview, and sees it as characteristically Topside hubris, believing she's got the right to meddle in matters she's got no business sticking her nose in.
"You'll find, madam, that blood feuds seldom come with elegant solutions."
On her part, Mel accuses Silco of deliberately deepening the wedge between the sisters, because he can't stand to let his grudge against Vander go. Which, ofc, pisses him off and has him threatening to do business with Ambessa, since if she can't respect boundaries re: in-laws, he's sure as hell not going start.
Likewise, Mel's aware of Jinx's dalliance with Ekko, and sometimes will tender advice on everything from patching over past wrongs to kissing techniques. Full on that Cool Mom who proposes a girls' trip to the mall so you can meet your crush without your dad catching wind of it...
Ofc in this case the stakes are higher.
Suffice it to say, when Silco finds out, he intimates either war - or divorce.

Fic Writer: Five Favorite Fics
Thanks for the tag @typewriteringalaxy.  It’s been a while since we’ve chatted and I hope you’re doing well these days.  Reading everyone’s lists has been interesting.  I didn’t know you wrote a Cloak & Dagger story, so I’ll have to check that one out.
Anyway, choosing five of my favorite fics in the Firelight Stories series was hard.  It was like trying to choose a favorite among my children.  They’re all my favorite in one way or another, but in order to not cop out, I’m gonna narrow it down to five anyway.
Also, before I continue, I wanted to say that I really enjoyed @letters-to-rosie‘s “The Fire Next Time”.  Really well done and worth a read.
Ahem, on to the main event.  My top five (in no particular order).
Joint Megalomania (Ekko/Jinx, M, 26/26),  - This was the first fic I had ever written and before I started, my wife told me to avoid writing it if I couldn’t finish.  I promised myself that I would make it to the finish line...AND I DID!  Shocked the hell outta me, but it’s a story I’m most proud of.  A good bit of mystery/suspense with some cool interactions between Ekko and Jinx.  A bit of angst in there, but that’s kinda par for the course for Ekko/Jinx stories, to be honest.  I had no idea what the hell I was doing, but I think it turned out well in the end.
Love & Food (Ekko/Jinx, T, 9/9) - This started off as a joke about Ekko and Jinx eating pancakes. However, I suck so hard at writing comedy it didn’t turn out the way I wanted.  I did enjoy the premise and thus decided to change it from a one-shot to a full-blown story.  The final product is something I’m happy with and I feel like it ends on a good note.  Coming up with the “dish of the week” was fun.  Chef Ekko will always be cool as shit to me.  The crazy thing is that this turned out to be the first long story I ever finished of ALL of my works.
An Outlaw’s Tale (Ekko/Jinx, M, one-shot) - I wanted to write a period piece with Ekko and Jinx and was stuck on what to write when my wife suggested I write a western.  I had never written a western before, so I did a ton of research about the 1800s and went from there.  Imagining Jinx as some badass outlaw was fun.  It’s one of the few Ekko/Jinx stories I’ve written where I keep the same origin story beats from Arcane.  I tried to tone down the racial issues, but it was still hard to ignore if I wanted to stay true to the time period.  Not sure if that’s for everyone, but I think I handled it with a bit of tact.
The Madness of the Feeling (Ekko/Jinx, T, 3/3) - My more radical stories tend to involve Jinx for some reason and that led me to writing this one which focuses on Ekko.  This story hits me the hardest, if I’m being honest with myself.  I dove deep into my early relationships to craft this one and there’s something raw about it that leads to a bit of introspection.  I actually crunched on this one trying to release it on Christmas Day, only to fail, because I didn’t take into account server locations.  Oh well, it was fun to write and while the subject matter was a bit depressing, I love how it came together.
The Celestial in the Moonlight (Ekko/Jinx, M, 7/7) - What started off as a monster horror story that was planned for Halloween, turned into a heartfelt journey of a monster falling in love and finding her place in the world.  I originally lamented the fact that I had abandoned the horror story, but as I went on, I found the new direction to be a better story.  It’s also the first story I have two characters actually get married AND have the ceremony.  Writing the dialogue for that was challenging.  Still, kitty monster Jinx turned out to be one of my favorite depictions of her as a character.  Glad I changed my mind on that one.
Honorable Mentions:
Guardians in Twilight (Ekko/Jinx, T, 6/6)  - Tackling the mess that is the Star Guardian universe was challenging.  I spent WAY too much time trying to connect the dots and to stay lore compliant.  Not sure if I’ll do that again, even if the final product is something I’m proud of.  I actually played League to research this one and I definitely won’t do that again.  Gotta admit, I love the interactions between Ekko and Jinx in this one.  Writing an “anime date” was definitely new for me.
Goodbye and Hello, My Friend (Ekko/Cait, M, one-shot) - I won’t say much about this one, other than it was a period piece set after World War 2 that I wrote because someone dared me to.  Should I have done it?  No idea, but what’s done is done and the final story turned out to be a nice commentary on soldiers putting themselves back together after the war, especially black soldiers.

I don’t know many people here, but here are a couple:
@vanilla107 (I know we’ve never met or even chatted before, but I loved your Ekko/Jinx stuff and I’m curious which ones you liked.)
@jm-chrome (What are your favorite art pieces?)

It's interesting to read so many people's interpretations of Jinx and Ekko's relationship on here. Though, I don't have anything to add (as my own view I'd like to keep to myself since I feel it may be a bit controversial), I do like to read everyone's takes. I appreciate the fact that so many folks are willing to share their thoughts.
Keep up the good work, everyone! I look forward to reading more of your thoughts and comments as we continue on to Arcane Season 2 and beyond. 👍🏿
