did a cosplay of Mel Medarda from Arcane :) As soon as I first saw this character, I knew I wanted to dress up as her

Saw something something.. melvander and something within me was awakened ✏️ 🤣 #rosehound perhaps? #arcane #melmedarda #Warwick #Vander

it’s always a lovely day when people realize weirdos are the backbone of any fandom and trying to make everyone “normal” kills everything enjoyable about it. fandom wouldn’t exist if people could be normal about things.

CONTRIBUTOR SPOTLIGHT 🌟✨ Any worthy venture needs @/faleneee (IG)! 💫✨ What do the cards have in store for Mel Medarda? You'll have to see Betta's final piece to find out! Their elegant watercolor pieces would certainly be amongst the finest works in Mel's art collection. 💛

in my time here on bluesky, i've been very fortunate to have met @armoralor.bsky.social who has been an ally to many black fans on here - including myself. they have consistently spoken about racism, specifically misogynoir when others ignore our voices, with no hesitation. cont.

if you're going to speak on the mel zine and it's contributors, at least know what the fuck you're talking about love. lol

Last thing I'll say on this: a lot of people need to reflect and take a look around at their 'fandom friends' - who speaks up and who sits on the sidelines. A lot of people tell on themselves by claiming that racism against a fictional character has no reflection on real life when it does.

Yesterday a popular jv artist openly mocked a Black woman for speaking out on racist tropes and white washing. Multiple Arcane fans on here liked the post, laughed along, and vowed to do more of what regularly causes Black fans discomfort, just to spite them. No one has apologized.

✨

the fact that they've seen my work for this is still insane to me wow

CONTRIBUTOR SPOTLIGHT 🌟✨ Let's have a toast for @pearlsw.bsky.social! 💫✨ With their brilliant use of lighting, the Soul's Reflection will for sure shine bright in Raccoon's piece. Look forward to a scene of Mel enjoying a day out with the Hound of the Underground! 💛

CONTRIBUTOR SPOTLIGHT 🌟✨ Our star today is @/sel3phi (IG)! 💫✨ Selephi's art balances softness with a bold use of vibrant colors - fitting for capturing Mel's duality as both the fox and the wolf. Their final piece for the zine will certainly be magical! 💛

CONTRIBUTOR SPOTLIGHT 🌟✨ Today we're spotlighting the stellar @keyxiidae.bsky.social! 💫✨ Keyx's stunning work will be on display as both a full piece and as spot illustrations complimenting a fic. Their striking style will embody the elegant essence of Mel Medarda well! 💛

jiahao not in chains kp what are we even doing in boys planet

Boys Planet 2023 will always be THAT season 💔

Aito from @1verse-official.bsky.social did a dance cover of XLOV’s “1&ONLY” and I am very excited about it

Yoshita 1967 seems cool. The line is inspired by the designer's Indo-Kenyan heritage. Appears to involve a lot of handwork, such as crocheting and beadwork. IG yoshita1967

if god loves me Andrew Han will debut in a permanent group that truly appreciates his vocals

[ #melvik ] have some pre-canon cuddling
