My time with you, as your friend, was the best I ever had.

What do you mean the Alicia/Kalinda scene in the finale was edited? Looks totally legit to me.

Fuck it. That’s good enough.

They made a race of it, dashing headlong across the yard and past the stables, skirts flapping, whilst knights and serving men alike looked on, and pigs and chickens scattered before them. It was most unladylike, but Alayne soon found herself laughing. For just a litle while, as she ran, she forget who she was, and where, and found herself remembering bright cold days at Winterfell, when she would race through Winterfell with her friend Jeyne Poole, with Arya running after them trying to keep up.

Again…. But black Annie was ok?

[theonlyonlytessie]

Because there was no reason that Annie shouldn’t have been black.

There are good reasons Mulan shouldn’t be white. It’s a Chinese story taking place in China and the central characters are Chinese. The ideas Disney used to create Mulan are drawn directly from Chinese history and culture.

People were “okay with black Annie” because Annie follows the classic rags-to-riches archetype and the purpose of stories like that, historically, has been to give hope to people in dismal situations, to allow people to recognize themselves in a character that starts out in a tough position and finds happiness. Black Annie is important and allows black children to see themselves in that character.

The characters in Mulan need to be Chinese, though. It’s not a generic story.
