Devil May Cry HD Collection (2018) | Platform: PC

Exploring the mechposting tag lately because of Angry Lesbians in Mechs webnovel that I am currently writing, and:

Okay, yes, sure, pilot/handler pairs, but I don’t want the psychosexual submissive drooling attack dog/manipulative abuser dynamic. That’s been covered to the moon and back. Give me colleagues. Give me equals. Give me two devastatingly competent adults with a dynamic that’s as complicated, full, nuanced as each half of the pair themselves. Give me a variety of relationship tones - mentor/student, sibling/sibling, frienemies, embittered rivals, coldly efficient coworkers, platonic but deeply entangled teammates, dancer/choreographer, artist/muse, co-captains, life partners, all against the same backdrop of 24/7 high-octane, necessarily intimate coordination. Give me something new.

More power to those who appreciate the popular tropes, but there’s tons of potential here that I think stands to be more deeply explored.

Taking an evolutionary anthropology class has made me hate Netflix DMC's use of demons as a metaphor for different races even more

RACE IS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT! DIFFERENCES IN PHYSICAL FEATURES ACROSS DIFFERENT POPULATIONS VARIES WIDELY EVEN WITHIN ONE ETHNIC GROUP, AND THEY ARE NOT EXCLUSIVE TO SPECIFIC PEOPLES! HOW WE CLASSIFY RACE IN ONE COUNTRY ISN'T GOING TO BE THE SAME IN ANOTHER!

BY TRYING TO EXPLAIN THAT DEMONS ARE A SUBSPECIES OF HUMAN, YOU END UP REINFORCING THE IDEA THAT DIFFERENT RACES ARE INFACT BIOLOGICALLY DESTINED TO BEHAVE DIFFERENTLY TO THE "DEFAULT"! YOU CANNOT MAKE AN ANTI-RACISM METAPHOR USING AN IDEA THAT HAS BEEN USED TO ENFORCE RACISM
