Seeing one of the Arcane writers admit that she purposely invested little in MelJay, but is constantly on Twitter uplifting others ships (who have yte love interest but whatever) and when asked what she thought about Mel as a character she gave the synonymous "She's girlboss" and nothing else....hmmm. Not only is it incredibly unprofessional but also childish too. But some in the fandom were telling black fans that they were reaching when they said Mel was falling into the disposable black girlfriend trope. Don't even get me started on how, with the Noxus trailer dropping and there being more potential for Mel's story, you still have those specific fans trying to shoe in other characters into her story.

#arcane #anti arcane #anti arcane fandom #mel medarda #mel sweetie u deserved so much better than these whack ass writers animators and fans #funny how people will say meljay is boring but don't offer any explanation why like they just give the generic #“i just don't like het ships” boo pack up that old ass excuse & just admit u ain't have nothing to say #and many who say this carry undertones of racism & misogyny bc they never value either mel or jayce as characters without bringing it back #to other yte characters (viktor) like yall aren't slick #why can't black people especially black women have a black female protagonist that they get to look up to and see be treated equally?#smh 🙄#bet someone gonna be in my comments trying to be like “It's not that serious” well it must be if u came to comment on it hmm? 🤨
