What are the biggest donts when writing Viktor in fics? And what are your thoughts on him becoming the Machine Herald? Asking as an abled person for a disabled person’s perspective

Okay so I've written a couple posts here on disability and representation in general but here's my shortlist! Understand that if any writers reading this have done any of the following it's not a value judgement and I can only speak for myself and my immediate community, make your own best judgments and remember you can always edit your own stuff if you messed up and it's NBD! Okay onto the list.

1. Understand that jayce/a partner taking his cane away is the equivalent of stealing someone's legs and it is not cute or funny and should not be taken lightly

2. Writing him being picked up and carried everywhere or otherwise physically restrained "for his own good" is infantilizing and bad.

3. If it's something you'd do to a toddler, it's probably not cute. People feeding Viktor is not cute. People wiping his mouth with a napkin is not cute.

4. I have a Long post about it up there but Viktor does not have poor self esteem canonically and writing him with overexaggerated self hatred is, while not always, usually ableist.

5. Writing him lashing out at Jayce for not taking better care of him or otherwise stopping his entire life because Viktor is sick or dying is both miserable to read from an abled person and also not realistic. Viktor does not need to be taken care of nor does he want to be babied. He's an adult with the ability to make his own decisions.

6. Do not have him refer to himself as crippled (derogatory) or "Broken". Especially not broken. Literally every time I see that word in fics my entire soul leaves my body. Cripple is a reclaimed slur and I would prefer abled people not use it but I understand that he uses it canonically, if you are GOING to use it, understand that it's a word used for other people's perspective on him or as a joke or a self identifier used to make abled people deliberately uncomfortable. It's like a gay person calling themselves by the f slur. Understand that that word HITS.

As for the machine herald... I have more complicated feelings.

Fundamentally, I think it's important to understand that Viktor is.... Wrong? Viktor is wrong. Viktor is incorrect. Viktor's whole shit about ascending beyond humanity and sacrificing emotion is based in the feelings of a deeply wounded man making an emotional decision by claiming he's making a rational one. He can prattle on about his physical limitations all he wants, that's not what this is about. The thing is his approach... Does. In fact. Smell a little bit like eugenics. The insistence on fixing disability and human weakness via ascending to machine Does In Fact Smell A Little Like Eugenics.

The problem with discussing this in depth is that the idea of cyborgs as either a tool of capitalism to Fix disabled people or as a form of empowerment by disabled people is an extensive academic debate on which some very intelligent people have written and if I start quoting Donna haraway at people we will rapidly lose the thread of the discussion (especially bc I don't agree with Haraway) so here is the upshot: you know how women will decide that it's empowering to do things that are exactly what society wants them to do anyway like wear an entire full face of conventional makeup, shave their legs and armpits, and wear heels? That's the problem with machine herald. He has absolutely every right to make these decisions about what's right for himself, but he's making them under enormous pressure by society to do so, and in making them for other people risks losing what empowerment he found in them.

Now, that being said, I'm going to immediately undermine my own point and say that if I could have robot legs I would probably chop my own legs off on a bad pain day. So here's like.... The distinction, and a kind of way to approach it— fundamentally, you have to treat it as the creation of accomodations, not "fixes". Cures for poisoning and Viktor's lung conditions do not count under this category by the way I'm gonna focus for a moment on physical disability, illness is another subject. If your leg is messed up and you can't walk on it properly, you build a brace, if you have it amputated, you get a prosthetic, no prosthetic is going to entirely be the same as having the leg. Prosthetics exist in real life and advancing them with science is fine so long as you understand that it's DIFFERENT. The goal for disabled people should be accommodating specific needs rather than Being Abled. You don't say "I want to be normal" you say "I want to be able to grab that fucking thing off that high shelf" the latter is good and fine and realistic. If you write the first sentence I'm going to hunt you for sport.

This was very long winded but fundamentally what I feel about the machine herald is that Viktor is deeply deeply mentally ill because fundamentally happy healthy people don't start chopping all their limbs off and trying to scoop out their emotions with a soup spoon. This man is having a spiralling mental breakdown and disguising it as a new philosophy on life. That philosophy is... To use a buzzword. Problematic. So usually when I write him augmenting himself I'm pretty careful about it? But other people have different takes on this! It's an extremely complicated subject. But in the original lore, Viktor is just straight up wrong, and I feel like a lot of people gloss the fact that in the original lore Viktor stuck probes in workers brains in order to force them to work more efficiently without getting scared of unsafe working conditions and Jayce (justifiably) went "hey what the FUCK"

So tl;dr I don't like the machine herald philosophy but Viktor is mentally unwell and also the suit's a mobility aid not a cure for disability. I'm out of spoons! I hope this was illuminating.

In Tommyland, Being Beautiful Means Embracing What You Have

The gorgeous, long-legged women skating down the Venice Beach Boardwalk in various red, white, and blue ensembles epitomized the beauty theme of Tommy Hilfiger’s Spring 2017 runway show: fun, carefree, and effortless. Venice, CA, was transformed into a massive fashion carnival called Tommyland, which was the setting for the Tommy Hilfiger x Gigi Hadid event.

Backstage, which took place in a parking garage set up with vanities and dressing rooms, Gigi, her sister Bella Hadid, and friends like Joan Smalls, Hailey Baldwin, and Devon Windsor got prepped for the show, where the idea wasn’t to cover up or change the women’s natural beauty. Think fresh-faced makeup with hair that fit each woman’s personality.

“The look is very fresh, very natural, an enhancement of their own beauty,” celebrity makeup artist (and legend) Pat McGrath told us. “A little contour around the eye, a little Skin Fetish on the cheekbones, beautiful mascara on the lashes, very softly done, and lip balm on the lips!” The models also had their cupid’s bow and the bridge of their nose highlighted as well to keep the look “fresh.” Tommy and Gigi’s direction was to make the girls appear to be glowing. “But no fake tan, but just ‘healthy,'” Pat said.

“Everyone’s really different. We’re working with who the girls are, what their natural texture is, and all we’re really doing is enhancing what they have and making the quality of the hair feel more premium,” said Eugene Souleiman, global creative director of care and styling for Wella Professionals. “It’s really very simple. There are girls with really straight hair, mixed-raced girls with very curly hair, there’s fros, there’s beachy waves. It’s all going on, but I guess that’s the idea. For me, I want every girl to look really pretty. It’s kind of like a pop-up salon backstage at a fashion show.” It should be noted, though, that some of the models did get tracks of hair extensions added to their hair for length.

While the beauty look was pretty minimal, the nails included some fun flair. International celebrity manicurist Mar y Sol Inzerillo explained that gold and silver stars were drawn freehand on the nail, over clear polish, to create the appearance that they were floating. The toes were painted bronze.

Scroll through to see photos of Gigi and the models from backstage, and don’t miss who appeared in the front row, plus the ’90s-inspired looks from the runway.
