Lets talk about the dumbassery of artemis crock, a half vietnamese character, having natural blonde hair. DONT start at me with the “aSiAN PeOplE aRe DiVeRsE” and “GeNeTicS ArE WeIrD.” BOTH are true BUT.

1.Genetic diversity can and does exist without major phenotypic variation (see: africans are the most diverse “race” [i put in quotations because race is not biologically real but is a social construct that exists and affects us] but have limited common phenotypic variation)

2. Do NOTTT cite the 0.00001 instances of asian people having blodne hair/blue eyes to me.

3. I KNOW artemis is half white/biracial but that simply isnt how genetics work. Black hair and black eyes are dominant over blonde and blue. And i know genetics are weird and sometimes mixed people are born with different hair/eye colors but artemis had DARK DARK BROWN/black eyes and blonde hair past puberty. That pairing simply does not exist, like not even in white people. At least not to sny dtatistical significance.

4. There is an observed pattern of feeling the need to give poc characters white-afjacent/lighter features to make them more aesthetically pleasing. I think thats lame and should change .more poc characters should be añlowed to look unambiguously poc. (And i know artemis is only half poc but pls understsnd my point.)

5. They clearly wanted to keep her blonde hair as a callbsck to whatever comic character dhe was inspired by. Thats fine. Do you know the extremely easy solution here? MAKE IT CLEAR HER HAIR WAS BLEACHED/DYED. Show child!art with a more realistic hair color!!! I MEAN CAHM ON MAN.

6. I know i know its not same grand racist conspiracy on why shes blonde and not brown haired (brown hair instead of black couldve been a cool way to signify her mixed heritage snd show hiw she takes after her dad looks wise more than jade.) but BEAR WITH ME FOR A SEC. HUMOR ME. LET IR BE THAT DEEP, i BEG YOU. I just wish her heritage was considered more when they crafted her character design. Thas all. Natural brunette artemis is so real to me. Ok.

BONUS; on a more postive note- i think they thought more in depth about the crock-nguyen family’s mixed heritage when creating Lian. She has reddish sorta strawberry blonde hair. You may ask why im not bitching that jades black hair should be dominant over roys red. Well bestie thatd because recessive genetixs where B = Black and b = blonde and jsde as a biracial person id Bb. Because the B is doninant its what shows but she still has the blonde gene. She had equal chances of passing on the black or blonde gene snd happened to pass fown the blonde to lian. I think thats cool.

Anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk follow for more YJ yap and general dumbassery ily

i realized not long ago that a big reason why i dislike sp*tfire so much but adore traught and seaarrow is that with sp*tfire, you never EVER get the feeling that they could be close if they weren’t romantically involved, whereas with seaarrow and traught, it’s the contrary: they’re already close (in friendship term) and being romantically involved would just add another layer to their already great relationship

I can’t stop thinking about how tender Artemis and Kaldur’s friendship is.

001 -- Young Justice?

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Favorite character: Season 1: Artemis Crock, Season 2: Bart Allen, Season 3: Forager

Least Favorite character: uh...let’s go with Darkseid. 

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): Seaarrow, Gardita, Guardianbee, Arrow/Canary, Cheshroy

Character I find most attractive: All three Harper boys (Roy, Will, and Jim), season 2+ Dick Grayson, and both Cissie King-Jones and Stephanie Brown

Character I would marry: Conner Kent

Character I would be best friends with: Zatanna Zatara

a random thought: Eduardo Jr. should continue being a great friend to the other meta-kids, and he and the other Runaways need to reunite

An unpopular opinion: While everyone was worrying about Longshot becoming a thing in Season 3 (e.g. them living together and raising Lian), I was more worried that the writers were slowly building up “Cry for Justice” happening. Oh, and I actually laughed when I watched the Doom Patrol Go! parody in an “oh my God, I can’t believe they did that!”

My Canon OTP: Guardianbee

My Non-canon OTP: Seaarrow

Most Badass Character: Kaldur

Most Epic Villain: Lex Luthor, through his use of manipulation and power and intelligence and money is able to change public opinion and affect the heroes

Pairing I am not a fan of: Spitfire

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): Wally West

Favourite Friendship: Dick/Wally 

Character I most identify with: either pre-season 2 Artemis, season 2+ Conner Kent, or Tim Drake

Character I wish I could be: Dick Grayson (I’d like to be a hacker) or Virgil Hawkins (I want the powers)
