#Character: RUMI

[spaceobloquy]

[ Continuing with @ryathenaughtykitsune ]

It wasn't surprising that Rumi caught the woman's attention; her attire was perhaps equally as salacious and provocative as it was elegant or classy in its cut. The brilliant, glittering red of her dress was anything but subtle, and she probably looked more like entertainment than a guest.

Her behavior, however, suggested exactly the opposite. She seemed to be in no rush to engage with anyone else present, for one thing. For another, while her dress showed a lot of skin, below it was plainly powerful muscle. It was easy to see that messing with her was likely unwise, and thus nobody much seemed to want to bother her.

She didn't quite notice the look she was given though, being busy with securing her own supply of champagne from a waiter. "Come on, don't be stingy!" she chastised, before her hands jetted forward over his tray.

They withdrew bearing four flutes of bubbly: two between thumbs and forefingers, and two between pinkie and ring fingers. She had a big grin on her face at that, and was about to take a sip from one when she caught sight of her fellow dour guest immediately beside her... and the woman's older attendant—whom she eyed suspiciously for a second.

"Oh! Heyyy~! Fancy seeing you here!" she began, as though she knew the woman and always had. Without missing a beat, she peered at the singular empty champagne glass of theirs a little sadly. "That's all they gave you? I swear these guys are worthless..." Her left hand extended to offer the two flutes therein, while she expertly used her right to shotgun both the other two at once, then dispensed with those glasses on a passing waiter's tray.

She'd instantly gotten rid of all four!

That grin promptly returned to her face. "Have those to put some pep in your step, then we can go freshen up real quick and get some more; stuff's the only thing making this place bearable!"

Saw a post years ago that pointed out that all the black characters they saw that were represented without racist caricatures were done with white hair (with few exceptions)

And they went on to say that there are too many brown/brown/otherwise POC characters like that (especially women) like Kida from Atlantis

And since reading that, every time I see a fire, badass, beautiful POC characters with white hair, all I can think about is that post

Like Kalim Al Asim from TWST or Kida from Atlantis, Storm from X-Men and Mirko from BNHA. Hell, even Asra from Arcana or Ekko from Arcane/League of Legends

And there are countless more that I've seen done in a similar fashion, too

All of these characters are awesome, beautiful, badass representations that are extremely well done!

But they're all done with white hair. It makes me, as a white person, wonder if artists do this simply because the white balances out beautifully against brown skin

Or the more likely answer, where perhaps they do it as a way to make them 'desirable' brown characters. It feels odd and off (even though I love seeing BIPOC with all sorts of cool hair colours, it's the way it's done that makes me feel strange about it bc it happens so often)

Like,,, let them have darker skin AND darker hair.

Hell, let black characters have darker hair, darker skin, AND ETHNIC HAIR. Give them locs, or braids, or actual coils, or textured hair of any kind. Give them bantu knots, twists, etc.

You can draw all these crazy clothes and spiky hairstyles, but not ethnic hair?

Bullshit.

(edit before anyone sees this: would love LOVE comments/reblogs detailing anyone else's thoughts, especially if you're BIPOC!! as a white person, I'd really like to see your opinions on this frequently-used 'stereotype' in media. I would like to know, too, if my feeling uncomfy with the stereotype portrayed is just me not having any BIPOC experience to personally draw off of or if it's something others feel and notice too.)
