Shame on all of you giggling along and liking posts making fun of Black women. This is why so many people keep leaving the fandom, the unchecked rampant anti-Black racism that makes these spaces intolerable.

Before anyone tries to argue, read this then get back to me feminegra.com/mel-medarda-...

Mel Medarda Deserves Better in Arcane and League of Legends

Mel Medarda is a main character in Arcane but sidelined in media, fandom, and merch. Fans are demanding real recognition now.

There's nothing funny about this because this is about racism and how Mel is often written in racist, stereotypical, and misogynistic ways. There are jayvik fics where Mel is being tortured, experimented on, brutalized, and abused for the sake of propping up JV.

This point exactly. Everyone acted shocked when Youtooz posted a video of Mel being brutalized, saying they didn’t understand why a company thought that would appeal to the Arcane fandom, yet a month later we have people openly mocking Black fans for pointing out racism.

They run and ignore black people at the slightest pushback. Then they wonder why their fandom is so widely known for racism or why Youtooz felt comfortable posting a video of Viktor running over Mel.

Rudo “died” in a similar fashion to Jayce, and I find that choice to be extremely suspicious. Like it's such a specific way to go, I wanna know what the conversations were behind the scenes when it came to that. To be a fly on the wall when Clarke was meeting with the folks at Riot about Rudo.

#meljayweek — First Date

OUGH I think they would both be so giddy and awkward and they would go home giggling and kicking their feet

Happy Meljay Week Day Seven 💋 thank you to everyone who helped celebrate them 💘 #arcane #melmedarda #jaycetalis #meljay

A screencap of Jayce Talis kissing Mel Medarda's hand while resting his head on her lap in season one of Arcane. Over top of them is a text post that reads: "being gentle with her because i know she never deserved her past, and she genuinely deserves pure, nontoxic, sweet & kind love."

Today youtooz post a video of Viktor, a white man, running over Mel.

There has multiple JV fics/art where Viktor commits acts of violence against Mel. Now a company is using said violence as part of 'marketing' to shippers. If you claim to care about racism, call this out. It's sickening.

Talk dirty to me (explain your niche interests in detail) 🌌 #arcane #melmedarda

An image of Mel Medarda looking up towards the camera lovingly, from the scene in Arcane season one where she is looking up at Jayce Talis. Over top of her is a text post that reads: "You're a nerd" I say as I look at you with heart eyes while you info dump to me"

Multiple ships could be implied, including meljay, melvik, and/or meljayvik.

Late #melweek2025 sketch for day 7: Family/Legacy/Inheritance!!

Mel makes her way back home, and new portraits are added to the walls of House Medarda. One day, she can teach her child to be kind without fear of retribution.

If you actually love and give AF about Jayce, you would point out how toxic the Mage Viktor thing was, you would point out how much that cave and spending so much time down there did a number on his sanity instead of shitting on the woman who saw his potential and helped him succeed.
