jayce and viktors camera roll
like, i love stories where good people are flawed and at odds with each other, and can be unfair to each other or themselves. i don't need all the characters to be friends or never have conflict.
but it is very different from the fandom concept of 'portraying flaws' where an already routinely demonized character of color is constantly getting chewed out by other characters who are basically props, who are only there to voice the fandoms anger, and all for the sake of the fandom's chosen white woobie's catharsis.
and of course, when you want to focus more on the underappreciated characters and point out fandoms racism and misogyny, it's "why don't you create for your blorbos yourself instead of complaining!" but when it's a 100th post in the character tag demanding more 'flawed' portrayals for the character (while all popular artists and writers in fandom are already hyper-critical of the character at best or bash them at worst) it's considered fine.
(and when you see what fics are getting recommended under those posts... it becomes even more clear that it's not about nuanced portrayals)
Um... ๐ฅบ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ Is anyone open to being a beta for my Melvika fic? It's a modern AU enemies/rivals to lovers(ish) fic where they both run for the same seat in Congress. There is also (eventual) smut.
Here is the synopsis:
Mel Medarda wasnโt used to losing. She was the youngest person to ever make partner at her firm, and in all those years, sheโs never lost a single case. That is until her boyfriend Jayce forgets her 30th birthday, and she loses the first great love she ever had. To cope, she decides to tackle the next best thing: running for the House of Representatives. Sheโs been preparing for this for years, so she isnโt rattled. Until she meets her opponent, the dangerously attractive Sevika Kumar, and she has to reconsider how far she will go, and how much she is willing to give up, to win.
Before the injury that left her permanently disabled in her right arm, Sevika Kumal was unstoppable. She was completely undefeated as a boxer; she had a 26-0 record, with most of her wins being knockouts. She's confident she'll win when sheโs headhunted by her friend Celeste to run for the House of Representatives. Politics is a different game than sheโs used to, but if itโs like any game sheโs ever played, she knows exactly where to strike to come out on top. That is, until she meets the pretty, intelligent, and fairly ruthless Mel Medarda, and has to confront just how in over her head she might be.
Hit me up :)
