fffffaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAFAFAFAGAHGAGAGA WOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFFGGGJ a wip but stillll wooof woof woffffffffff 😈😈😈😈😈😈
trying to write a slowburn melvika fic fundamentally Does Not Work, I tried but I’m having to remove the tag because they’ve literally reached insane codependency at oympic speed
Arcane’s race blindness is a curse honestly. The Piltover cast (counsel and enforcers) are mostly characters of color, while the main characters from Zaun are mostly white (except Ekko and Sevika).
That leads to takes that Mel is racist towards Viktor (or any other white Zaunite character). Which is wack
.
I know that the animation studio wanted to desexualize the female characters in Arcane as much as possible which as a radical feminist I can appreciate. But as a Sevika fan, taking away the chest tattoo boob window crop top combo is actually really fucking unfair to women
People who dislike melvika bc they think the characters would hate each other are so funny. Like damn, y’all never heard of enemies to lovers??
Sharing arcane headcanon/analysis tweets that spark joy to me :> (part 17)
OK
I feel like Sevika kept the giant chompy claw arm. She'd never admit it, but that thing is sacred to her now. It's all she has left of Jinx. She could get a new arm with much more practical articulate fingers, and maybe she does for day to day, but the claw arm feels like it belongs to her in a way no other prosthetic ever has.
And you know she wears it to Council meetings. Just to remind everyone - that she's Zaun, that she's dangerous, that Jinx may be dead as far as anyone knows, but she's not gone. She's never gone. She's a symbol of Zaunite tenacity and ferocity and always will be, the same girl who started the war with a fiery fuck you to Piltovan oppression ended it by saving their asses and the Pilties had better never forget it.
When they're pissing her off, Sevika shrugs off her cloak and thunks that big claw on the table, still covered in Jinx doodles, and taps the claw tips and it echoes in that big stone chamber and every other Councilor goes pale.
When they're really pissing her off, she lets it play Get JINXED.
She long ago figured out how to game the slot machine mechanic to get what she wants. But she pretends, oh no, sorry, it's so random, glitches all the time, I don't control it. With the biggest smuggest smirk.
It's what Jinx would've wanted.
Um... 🥺👉🏽👈🏽 Is anyone open to being a beta for my Melvika fic? It's a modern AU enemies/rivals to lovers(ish) fic where they both run for the same seat in Congress. There is also (eventual) smut.
Here is the synopsis:
Mel Medarda wasn’t used to losing. She was the youngest person to ever make partner at her firm, and in all those years, she’s never lost a single case. That is until her boyfriend Jayce forgets her 30th birthday, and she loses the first great love she ever had. To cope, she decides to tackle the next best thing: running for the House of Representatives. She’s been preparing for this for years, so she isn’t rattled. Until she meets her opponent, the dangerously attractive Sevika Kumar, and she has to reconsider how far she will go, and how much she is willing to give up, to win.
Before the injury that left her permanently disabled in her right arm, Sevika Kumal was unstoppable. She was completely undefeated as a boxer; she had a 26-0 record, with most of her wins being knockouts. She's confident she'll win when she’s headhunted by her friend Celeste to run for the House of Representatives. Politics is a different game than she’s used to, but if it’s like any game she’s ever played, she knows exactly where to strike to come out on top. That is, until she meets the pretty, intelligent, and fairly ruthless Mel Medarda, and has to confront just how in over her head she might be.
Hit me up :)
