Cordelia gasped as her hat flew off her head and she reached out to grab it, then as she was shoving it back on, she realized she hadn’t died. She could still feel the rough forest grass beneath her, the warm sun on her back.

She was alive? How? She turned, stopping as a flash of metal blinded her slightly. She groaned and rubbed her eye, jaw-dropping as she looked up.

There, in front of her; was a woman, clad in a scarlet leather jacket, with dark purple armor…and a golden trident in her left hand, the residual magic from the bullet traveling down her body like crackles of lightning.

And on her chest, was a glowing shell necklace, that looked exactly like her mother's. “wha’?” Cordelia muttered, locking eyes with Gabby and K’Marah as they looked back at her in complete shock. The child in Gabby’s arms giggled with delight.

“Auntie~!” the woman glanced at her and smiled, before glaring back at the guards, who all took a step back; for the woman had taken the shot for Cordelia, and didn’t even flinch, the magic hadn’t hurt her one bit.

“How cowardly, to fight children like this” the woman muttered, the sun was suddenly blocked by dark clouds, rumbling with thunder and lighting flying across the darkness “grown men, bullying children…fucking pathetic”

little art and excerpt from the BER x TR oneshot im writing rn...its going good ill say that 

i think you're misinterpreting the rants love, its not that Harrys only love interest should be POC its that there are some writers, that straight-up ONLY write White reader with Harry (which isn't the problem) and trash uma as they do so (which IS the problem), completely forgetting that Uma and Harry are ride or die for each other characters, i see no problem in writing white reader x harry, but if you make Uma hate reader just because shes dating harry? and make harry trash uma himself? 

that's a big no-no and @inickel can explain it better than i can, but trashing uma because Harrys into her and the author wants Harry for reader, is racist. because canonically, she and Harry are into each other, or at least, Harry is INTO into uma, he loves her. and Uma is Harrys oldest friend, she trusts him with her life, shes not going to be nasty to him about HIS relationship, she trusts his judgment and Harry will always value her input, if Uma doesn't like reader, harrys dropping them, period, no matter if they are poc or not. 

 whenever i write hhxr if umas going to be mean to reader, its going to be for a legit reason other than “the reader is dating harry so uma is jealous”, I've only written one or two hhxr with Uma not liking Reader and that was one of my first couple writings, and it was more “reader is disrespecting uma as her captain because the reader is part of umas crew” and uma didn't like her because of that, she didn't care she was dating Harry, she cared that she was part of the crew and disrespecting her, and harry backed uma up because uma is his oldest friend. another thing i like to do with reader is reader having to gain umas trust if its not already there in the fanfic, because Uma is her own person, and while she would not control harrys love life, she would still have opinions on it.

and i do “now” always try to make the reader ambiguous so EVERYONE can read my stories without having to change themselves, whether it be their hair, skin, eyes, anything, they should be able to delve into the story without having to change themselves. unless its a specific request, or commissioning asking for a specific ethnicity reader, i will try to make reader a blank slate for the actual reader to present themselves onto (y/n).

sorry this turned into a big rant but to sum it up: Harry can be shipped with anyone, no matter their skin color, but turning Uma into a jealous, scheming, someone who wouldn't trust harry with his own life in the process because she and Harry are canonically into each other is a big no.
