Can I say something about Blonde Blazer cause I love her too and I think she’s fucking incredible and I want more of her story…?
They should’ve made the *true* her/Mandy have brown eyes. Cause like the fact she’s self conscious about Mandy’s brown hair and height, I personally think, they should’ve had her eyes be brown!!!
“Oh but Mystics why is that?”
ILL TELL YOU WHY. BECAUSE I RELATE TO HER.
I’m naturally a dirty blond to the point my hair looks brownish, and I have brown eyes. I remember when I was a kid all the way until I was 13(maybe even 15) how badly I wanted bright golden blond hair and blue or even green eyes because that’s “peak beauty.” All the girls who I thought were so pretty were all the girls who had blue eyes and blond hair…. But then I looked closer, a lot of my favorite heroines were just like me. They had dark blond hair or brown hair and brown eyes. It was like I was finally seeing just how beautiful I am even if not the “ideal” of the beauty standard. Hell even girls with black/brown hair and blue eyes were peak beauty standards but never the girls with dirty blond/brown hair and brown eyes.
So her being a brunette with brown eyes would’ve been so perfect she was insecure with her looks and making her look like the equivalent of Megan Fox isn’t selling that point. Give her more of the less seen standards. Especially if we assume she was raised in a society where darker tone aesthetics weren’t what girls wanted. Or assume she loves watching Hollywood movies, and all she’s seeing is the blonde and blue eyed girl getting the guy.
It would’ve been more realistic, heck even if she needs glasses to see cause we love fucking with that trope, give her imperfections like that. And make her the mirror of Robert so that them being one in the same is more perfect.
Okay that’s all thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
@vitamincherry for your consideration.
