JinxQuinn

JinxQuinn is the femslash ship between Jinx and Harley Quinn from the League of Legends and DC Comics fandoms.

Canon
Jinx and Harley are from different universes. Thus, they've never met in canon. However, both of them share some similarities.

Jinx grew up in the undercity, a very marginalized area within her hometown. Harley, on her part, grew up in Gotham, which is a filthy city. Depending on what origin you go off, Harley either grew up in an orphanage or she lived with her parents who were extremely dysfunctional. Her father being a criminal and her mother being extremely neglectful. Thus, both characters have some childhood trauma due to their upbringing. The only difference being that Jinx had an older sister who cared and looked out for her, while Harley had brothers who she barely got to see. Another difference is Harley was a rather aggressive child at a very young age. Meanwhile, Jinx had clear emotional issues. However, she was rather shy and couldn’t do much due to her feeling powerless while failing at everything she attempted to do.

What started both their journeys to become “Harley Quinn” and “Jinx,” rather than “Harleen” and “Powder,” is rather different, but the same. Jinx killed her family by accident while trying to help. Depending on what Harley story you go with, she accidentally caused her boyfriend Guy to kill himself in front of her while she was in college for an experiment she was trying to do. These two critical moments in their lives resulted in Jinx getting “ditched” by her sister, finding comfort in her new father Silco. For Harley, she turned to continuing her studies to work her way to become Joker’s doctor for the sole purpose of him being the only human being that could possibly understand her due to how twisted he was himself. Both finding comfort in what would end up being their downfall. As Joker became really abusive towards Harley. And Jinx's adoption by Silco further marginalized and alienated her.

They both found comfort in someone who isn’t very good for them. Dedicating a large part of their heart and time into these people. Silco and Joker are the reasons for the birth of the Jinx and Harley alter egos. They pushed them and forced them to become this human being they wanted them to be. Jinx grew up with her new dad Silco, which shaped her into becoming Jinx. While the Joker out shaped Harleen into Harley Quinn. Another thing in common are their "special powers." Jinx was injected with Shimmer, which gave her added abilities. Harley was injected with fluids made by Poison Ivy, which gave her special abilities, such as speed, strength and faster healing.

Both cut these traumatic sources for their life. Jinx killed Silco, while Harley broke up with Joker. They are on their path of being who they want to be, while still keeping in touch with the person they had become. And both have people that care for them. Harley has Poison Ivy, Pamela Isley. In Jinx's case, she has her sister, Vi, who cares for her, and Ekko, who used to have a crush on her before she started causing harmful chaos.

Fanon
Despite the fact that many fans of the two franchises see various similarities between both characters, the friendship side of the ship is more explored than the romantic one. In fan works, fans explore the two meeting and being allies. They imagine the two on adventures, wreaking havoc. Or sometimes, they are put against one another in terms of skills, to see who is better. If they happen to be paired romantically, both of them help each other heal from their trauma and be happy.
