Rakan doesn't really love Xayah

Achilles Herz·Sep 4, 2018·3 votes·3,519 views

Rakan (The Charmer) is engaged with... an edgy female with a nose ring?

I feel like Rakan is just staying with Xayah because he knows that she would actually go suicidal at the slightest moment of failure or disappointment.

There is nothing charming about Xayah whatsoever. Her voice and character as a whole are just edgy.

Rakan is a the kind of guy who would be better off with Ahri or Miss Fortune.

But in the end, these characters were made by some Rioter and maybe Rakan does truly love Xayah. This is just my theory. Either way, both stories are interesting.

People tend to have their tastes, you know? What I find attractive may don't be attractive to others. I find many examples of it with my friends. The person I show that I find really hot is just a "meh" for them.

So don't believe your tastes are universal. Or that you know a fiction character better than their writers.

I believe you missed out the part where I said that this was just a theory from me thus making you believe that I'm completely applying my own personal tastes to Rakan.

To me, it seems more like Rakan realizes parts of Xayah's edginess is for show, and so he jokes around with it. That in turn endears Xayah to him - she can keep up appearances but still have Rakan know her true self.

Listening to his and her quotes, it feels more like Rakan is the one madly in love while Xayah just "uses" him. I don't know, but I always get this feeling ingame every time BOTH are present.

It's different when playing only Xayah. (making out until their ears bleed. Damn, that's sexy af)

Different things are attractive to different people.

and that's why I said that this was just a theory and that It could either be true or false.

Hilarious. Feels a little troll. But watch the video with Zed. He would not rush in to save her and risk dying himself if he didn't love her truly.

Also, MF is a criminal and Ahri is a completely different kind of charmer. None of those would match

... unless you wrote it so in a fan fiction. But we all knows what those are all about.

"And then Rakan looked over to see an elf with long blonde hair (like mine yeehee ^_^) and they fell in love instantly" <-- example, openly making fun of bad fan fiction

In the video, you can also see that Xayah doesn't actually appreciate Rakan's help and just gives an eye roll.

As I said, Rakan does care about Xayah, but not in a way where he loves her for sexual pleasures or even just for showing others that they are engaged. I mean, you love your friends, right? But you don't want make out with them just because you care for them.

Also, there is a quote in Star Guardian Ahri's skin where she says that Rakan called her again, and a bunch of other quotes that makes sense with what I've been saying.
