just saw an art from an artist who worked with sjm during acomaf, basically her work is the closestof the character's actual appearence, like, the anon who said sjm looked at natalie alyn lind for description, that is basically what happened, and in a cartoon style she made, lucien is kinda almost the same color as tamlin, and cassian and azriel are the same as rice.... it is all funny considering that in arts were they (except tamlin) are not "darker" some people complain about white washing...
also, gonna mention helion, bc he actually has a persian/iranian appearence, and there were people complaing with the official artist that she white washed him, in the official acotar coloring book... y'know, """"""""""""""""the official artist instead of drawning the character as my headcanon, no, she did as close as they are supposed be, that must be white washing!"""""""" like, people are so dumb
I hate when people hate on artists when they're just doing the best they can with the information given and what the author has said.
on that note, the issue comes down to what I call implied diversity. SJM almost never straight up says a character is a PoC, especially if they are a main character. She may describe someone's appearance one way, usually with flowery and ambiguous language then lets the fandom do the heavy lifting. She lets the fandom make the diversity.
Its why people attack artists for 'whitewashing' even if they are just doing their job. Because people read and interpret it how they like and canonize their perceptions. Its why there's so much skin color variation in Rhysand art (for example) ((it's also why there's so much discourse in this 'fandom' over characters in general but I digress))
Sjm is a bad author when it comes to writing diversity in her cast of characters, and when she tries its very halfhearted. People get their panties in a twist over everything in acotar. She fumbles writing cohesive characters (rhysand changing skin tones acotar-acomaf, tamlins whole character) but the majority of the 'fandom' can't handle discussion over that lmao.
anyway, kinda went off but yeah!! whitewashing is a serious issue when it comes to character art but it's a moot point in the acotar fandom because of sjm lmao.

listen i like the idea of cersei having all girls because i 100% believe robert would fight for her to inherit, and NOT in a feminist way OBVIOUSLY but in the same way that Viserys is like “well but i want MY DAUGHTER to inherit my seat” sort of stubbornness right, and i like to think about how the modern day characters would react to this
but the problem is i just have No Idea how cersei would react to this because she’s gonna want to have a son right so she’d fuckijg Jaime extra and that’s so risky and those two are Already super risky but like if Robert gets so pissed off at the Small Council talking about Stannis being heir that he just names his oldest crown princess and everyone can fuck off, how……….does Cersei react to that. To just naming her daughter as the next Ruling Queen of Westeros.

You know that scene in American Psycho where Bateman stabs the homeless man in the alley and then walks away? Well, In the movie it just cuts to the next day. But in the book, you actually see where he goes after that. And you wanna know what he does immediately after killing a man? He goes to McDonald's and orders a slushy.
