[fcsources]

hi, barbie (swann)! hope you're doing well :) your theme is absolutely ethereal and your blog is an incredible lifesaver!

i wanted to seek your help with finding some fcs for a canon character if that's okay. sorry for the lengthy ask, i am providing context to be on the safe side.

so, this character is amara aquilla aka magma of marvel. to nobody's shock, marvel hasn't defined her ethnicity or heritage clearly, but from my understanding (please take this with a grain of salt, i don't mean to misstate facts and i acknowledge i can be fallible), she's brazilian with italian descent (in terms of nationality rather than ethnicity) in the comics — where she is depicted as white. in the animated show x-men evo, however, she's stated to be african-brazilian.

as someone who's passionate about writing underutilised canon characters and giving them the justice marvel doesn't give usually, i am going to be liberal with my comics portrayal of amara and write her as a woman of colour.

with this being said, do you have some suggestions for her fcs? i'm seeking a fem representing person who's brazilian with african (and maybe italian if possible) descent, has a reasonable amount of content, older than 18, and with blonde hair if possible? i know this is a huge ask, so if you answer this ask or could recommend me some other rph blogs that could help, i would really appreciate that!

thank you, i wish you a very lovely day. <3

𝙝𝙞 𝙗𝙖𝙧𝙗𝙞𝙚! awh, thanks, first of all, so much for the kind words, angel!!! wow omg 🥹 this is definitely a very complicated casting situation, as so often happens with comic book characters lol. admittedly i'm not a marvel girlie so my information is going to be based solely off of the information provided here. to the best of my understanding, you're looking for an 18+ fem/female fc who ideally is afro-brazilian and blonde. i'm going to do my best to meet those specs as exactly as possible, but i'll also be looking for any other blonde afro-latina fcs, or if i stumble across any other woc who are brazilian and blonde. i hope this helps you, peach!! ♡

LEYLA SELVI (BURCU OZBERK) IS LOOKING FOR…

Connection: Criminal from Her Past/Ex-Fling

Suggested Name: UTP

Age Range: UTP

Species: UTP

Suggested FCs: UTP, but some suggestions are Paulina Chavez, Regé Jean Page, Zorzo Natharuetai, Berk Cankat, Bie Thassapak Hsu, Bruna Marquezine, Deniz Can Aktaş, Jacob Elordi, John Harlan Kim, Josie Totah etc.

Connection Description:

Your character is someone Leyla knew from her crime days. In terms of what crime they were involved in, we'd ask that its not the same crime as the other characters we have in the dash, so if it could be one of the following that would be great- gang member (no latinx fcs or black fcs for this to avoid any harmful stereotypes), drugs (no latinx fcs or black fcs for this as well to avoid any harmful stereotypes), pyramid schemes, gambling, hacking, getaway driver for another group of criminals, white collar crime etc.

They could have been another runaway like Leyla and bonded over this fact/formed a friendship of sorts before they inevitably parted ways for one reason or another or-

Leyla used to have a tendency to sleep around, so they could have had a fling or a fairly short lived relationship to which they grew tired of Leyla or left for a reason or another (Leyla could have even ended up robbing them on the way out - we could plot it out). They haven't seen each over since, but they would have stumbled into Lunar Cove and bumped into the Crime Family who have been living in this small town of Rhode Island having left the life of crime behind them.

Leyla is in a serious relationship now with a Lawyer named Ken and runs the local coffee shop appearing to be living a seemingly normal life, while your character would still be an active criminal and would like find the crime fam attempting to be law abiding citizens to be humorous at best and are counting down the days since you don't think it will last.

Please be sure to contact the player before applying:

[thecapturedafrique]

your faceclaim for ally isn’t afro caribbean and should reflect that. it’s weird to use someone who’s white and mexican for an afro caribbean character and erases people who are

The TRR sprite I chose for my MC Ally Romiere is actually the Latina version, and so originally when I was searching for a FC, I went with a person of Latinx descent who most closely resembled the actual character model. It was upon finding Lindsey Morgan, who is Mexican, that I then made Ally Mexican herself.

I chose later to give her a Black grandparent because many Latinx folks who do not identify or appear as visibly Black still have Black ancestry. And while Ally herself recognizes this, she does not identify as Black, because she hasn’t been raised as such and she hasn’t been identified by others as such. Also, I didn’t make it clear in my post, but I do imagine her grandmother María to be of partially mixed ancestry herself.

FCs within the Choices fandom are meant to be visual representations of the characters. While it’s still important to find folks who match racially/ethnically/nationally, it’s a lot harder to find real life folks with a bevy of pictures online who do all four when your character is mixed with any degree other than strictly half-and-half (and even that can be hard depending on the groups). That’s why you will sometimes find folks who use multiple face claims to represent the same character, and I do have another one for Ally (Eiza González).

But because of this difficulty, we are often forced to choose which part of our character’s identity is the most important to always have reflected. And since Ally is Mexican American in that she identifies herself as such and is perceived by the world as such, then that to me was the most important part to always have. And because it’s very possible for Latinx folks to have Black ancestry and not be aware of it (or sometimes not even have considered them or their family as such), I chose to rely on that possibility of the FCs rather than make it a focus. Because Ally at the end of the day isn’t meant to represent Afro Caribbeans or be seen as one herself; she’s meant to be Mexican American and represent how that group can have Black ancestry.

However, this is just me sharing my reasoning. While I have consulted with my Black Latinx friends within the fandom in regard to my answer to this ask, I am not a Black Latina myself nor am I mixed, so I leave myself open to critique and alternative suggestions. However, I want to be transparent that I do value including diversity in my characters more than I value finding a singular FC that can perfectly reflect that diversity, so this is a trend you will find not just in Ally but in my other TRR character pages as well.

SHAKIRA X BIZARRAP - BZRP MUSIC SESSIONS #53

Separation, Shakira-style!

[8.35]

Nortey Dowuona: FC Andorra are 7th in the Segunda Division; Karol G is on the Barbie soundtrack. I say this divorce was the best thing to ever happen to them. [9]

Peter Ryan: A comprehensive public clobbering, an icy-caustic bookend to the relationship that wormed its way into her discography with the ebullient "Me Enamoré", stuffed with double entendre indictments sharp and specific enough to preemptively render any rebuttal pathetic. Structurally it ranks among her most ambitious, all polyrhythms and quasi-freestyle character, the latter part no doubt owing to the BZRP Music Sessions format. There's catharsis in her kicking open the door on the private strife about which she'd previously stayed tight-lipped, and in the meta-narrative of the megastar shaking off the dead weight and finding creative reinvigoration. While they've become fewer and farther between in the last decade, she hasn't lost her knack for creating a Moment -- I heard this at the corner store, wafting out of passing car windows, on the dancefloor -- she wasn't kidding about cashing in. [9]

Alex Ostroff: The main attractions here are Shakira's righteous and yet somehow still icy fury and her impeccable wordplay. She wishes her ex the best with her "supuesto reeemplazo", but makes it absolutely clear that nobody is capable of actually replacing her. In someone else's version of this revenge-pop anthem, your husband absconding with a woman half your age might be a source of insecurity, but for Shakira it's another sign of his cluelessness -- at 44, she's worth two 22-year-olds and presents it as a simple and obvious fact. Bizarrap initially seems to take a backseat, but he brings plenty to the table, evolving his production and adding details that accentuate and complement hers. Tonight, I'm obsessed with the way he brings in that reggaeton-esque percussion right at "Me dejaste de vecina a la suegra/Con la prensa en la puerta y la deude en Hacienda" and how that propels the song into Shakira's triplet of creíste/heriste/volviste rhymes. Shakira's best material in the post-Fijación Oral era of her career has consistently been her Spanish albums, but until the restructuring of streaming and Billboard chart metrics in recent years, their popularity (and pop excellence) was never properly reflected. Of Pique's many, many sins, the one I'm most angry about was causing Shakira to relocate to Spain -- away from her main collaborators and recording studios -- and thus keeping her away from the radio at a time when audiences' engagement with global pop (and especially music in Spanish) seems much bigger and more permanent than the limited crossover moments of the 90's and early 2000's. Her post-BZRP releases have mostly been collaborations with an extremely varied list of rising Latinx stars in a wide range of genres, from a reggaeton heartbreak diss track with Karol G to a regional Mexican polka track with Fuerza Regida about labor rights and Pique firing the nanny who snitched on him for cheating. I have absolutely no idea what to expect from Shakira next, and I couldn't be more excited. [10]

Harlan Talib Ockey: 1) Cultural reset. 2) I love mess. 3) We now go live to Pique stepping on a rake. 4) Infinitely more energy than "Te Felicito" or "Monotonía". 5) Actually, Shakira hasn't sounded this forceful in a long time. 6) Bizarrap at the top of his own game rather than trying super hard to make corridos, for example. 7) "¡LAS MUJERES YA NO LLORAN, LAS MUJERES FACTURAN!"="margin:> [9]

Aaron Bergstrom: As a non-Spanish speaker, I'm probably missing out on some of the nuance here, but allow me to offer a brief letter of recommendation for 1) listening to this for the first time with minimal context, 2) focusing only on Shakira's inflection and intonation, 3) picking out a few lines where she sounds especially pleased with herself, 4) thinking "ooohhhh, I bet these are daggers," and then 5) looking up the English translation and confirming that every single one is just as vicious as you'd hoped. Because let me tell you, it is a delightful experience. [8]

Jessica Doyle: Cuando era niña, en mi escuela podría estudiar solamente francés; no empecé a aprender hablar español hasta desde cuatro o cinco años. Hoy tengo una cita cada día con Duolingo y puedo comprender unas frases, pero quiero apreciar el idioma mucho más, y lo que me motiva, es esta canción. Shakira canta como sus palabras tienen pesos y formas; se puede esucuchar y sentir cuando ellas se chocan con el suelo--"mastique' y trague', trague y mastique'," "con la deuda a la Hacienda." Además, ella gana confianza y acelera, asi que cuando ella canta, "Yo valgo por dos de 22," no es un cope defensivo, es una declaración de hecho. El idioma es su arma y su poder. Y el ritmo es único; ella no lo podría haber canto en inglés. Entonces, escribí este blurb en español; no lo escribí en inglés y traducé. Sé que hay muchos errores (Google Translate me dice que "I translated" no es "traducé," es "traduje"), pero creo que sería un error más grande hablar de esta canción en inglés. La escucho y me hace querer estudiar y aprendar más. [8]

Will Adams: An undersung aspect of what makes "Pa Tipos Como Tú" so compelling is how Bizarrap's beat switch-ups throughout the song propel it forward. It begins as an icy breath of Italo that recalls She Wolf's more delirious moments. Midway through the second verse, the floor caves in to reveal a heavy, rhythmic groove, as if gathering power for the next attack. The second chorus arrives with a walloping synth bass, reminiscent of "Padam Padam" but even more menacing. It makes for one of the most exciting listening experiences of the year, instilling an uncertainty of where this thing is headed next. All the while, Shakira floats on top, mercilessly delivering a brutal takedown that leaves nothing in its wake. [8]

Tara Hillegeist: The last time anyone on Shakira's level tried to write a song about how mad she isn't like this, it was over a decade ago, and "Irreplaceable" that effort absolutely wasn't, drowned in goopy self-affirmation and breathy lack of confidence. Compare the liquid contempt swirling around every syllable, here, the bared-fang sharpness of the enunciation as she howls "You thought you'd hurt me, you only made me stronger/Women no longer cry, women get paid". Shakira's fury isn't the fury of a woman left abandoned, with only scorn as her cold comfort -- as one of pop's inarguable queens, she has an entire country at her back. It's only natural that she can't simply settle for destroying her ex's memory alone, when there's an entire dancefloor waiting to destroy it in her honor instead. Pity Shakira's ex-husband, who will go down in pop-cultural history as nothing more than the expertly character-assassinated trophy this song leaves behind to hang on the she-wolf's wall, alongside all the others who thought to make a prize of her instead, only to find, as ever, that it's not their world to rule, but hers. Or don't; the viperous specificity with which she approaches the subject matter in question makes it readily apparent that from her perspective, this reckoning was only ever held at bay by the love he squandered in the first place. The other woman should probably count herself lucky Shakira only holds her accountable for thinking herself entitled to taking Shakira's place in his affections; if there were any other reasons, Shakira clearly wouldn't have hesitated to include them. Let the dancefloor show mercy, then, if there's any to be found. [9]

Katherine St Asaph: Shakira's hips don't lie; their involuntary sway, she's said, is how she identified Bizarrap's track as a Depeche Mode homage too chilly to pass up. And yet the track is not nearly as cold as the way Shakira vaporizes her song's targets from on high. That her specific complaints are relatively petty -- basically, that getting cheated on has stuck Shakira with a lot of rich person problems -- is beside the point. Repeatedly, she drops the real names of two real-ass people, syllable by syllable via careful wordplay, as if putting a scope into place. Her vocal is mixed loud, processed past any human timbre, and arranged to fill all space in the track. She sounds less like an individual jilted woman than a metallic weapon, than the genderless, pitiless, all-judging voice of God. Finally comes the killing smite: "and now you're with someone just like you." It's not often that experiencing a punching-down feels this bitter and inevitable, this compelling and correct. [10]

Rose Stuart: I said in my review of Olivia Rodrigo's "Vampire" that, in the year of breakup songs, hers was the only one that wasn't full of posturing. This is the only song where that posturing feels earned. Where other songs made neither their pain nor strength convincing, Shakira comes out triumphant, coming for blood with each finely picked detail in every savage line. The song never stops going in, even using the name of her ex's partner for some masterful wordplay. I've heard many breakup songs that try to go at the singer's ex, but this is the first time I've actually felt sorry for the song's subject -- after all, it must be hard to show your face in public after being roasted this thoroughly. [9]

Wayne Weizhen Zhang: A swaggering, sexy encounter that has me simultaneously wanting me to say "I'm too good for you, bitches!" and "Step on my face, mother!" [9]

Jacob Sujin Kuppermann: lol hell yeah [8]

Alfred Soto: With any insignificant number of synths per track signifying as "1980s" the response to this track was a given, but the thudding insistence of its beat muscled past those assumptions. As alert as a burglar with good tools, Shakira talks so much shit that the judgment fades before the verdict. Imagine if they'd released this at the height of the 2010-2011 EDM epoch. [8]

Jonathan Bradley: Bizarrap's sleek, gleaming disco sets off the lack of adventure in Dua Lipa's 2023 comeback; these cool synths glide with a propulsive sense of drama. Shakira, uncharacteristically, is the weak spot though, allowing herself to recede into the background. She doesn't always command attention, but even her reserve is usually compelling all on its own. Here, she's content to vibe, waiting for someone else to make something happen. [5]

Brad Shoup: Impeccably imaged: we're used to that from Shakira. But the chilliness is something else: a brisk disco kiss-off that fogs up the anguish she's audibly fighting. The way she paces herself is really cool: icy pop in the first verse, a switch to reggaeton cadence at the end of the second that fully detonates in the third. She's acting as her own feature rapper: just another power move. [8]

Ian Mathers: I was the high mark last time we covered Shakira, but even if I was going to be here (doubt it!) it'll clearly be for very different reasons. With "Don't Wait Up" it was that fucked-up little organ (or whatever) riff, and while Shakira was good, her performance wasn't specifically what drew me to the track. Here, while the production is good, it's her performance that's much more central. Even before my monolingual ass looks up a translation you can kinda just tell from the vibe that someone is getting it in the neck, and/or Shakira is feeling her oats ("and," as it turns out) and then once you do... "Sorry, I already took another plane" is a hell of a way to start. Plenty of specific detail lurking in there, but the repeated "I was too big for you and that's why you are with a girl just like you" fairly blisters as it goes past. [8]

Taylor Alatorre: All else aside, it must really suck to not only have the Tsar Bomba of diss tracks dropped on you, but to have that track sent out to the world with this podcast episode-ass title. Like, at least Jay-Z can boast that he's part of the reason we all say "ethered" now; no such consolation here. The tossed-off nature of the release, while adding insult to injury -- you don't even get an album track! -- makes it harder to admit this into the pantheon of the greatest diss songs of all time. But I get the sense that legacy is not really what Shakira is concerned with here. This is a crime committed in the heat of the moment, in broad daylight, and everyone will remember where they were when they witnessed it. For her, that is enough. [7]
