- @grrlinterrupted it's interesting that the author is Asian but still brings in this stereotype – is it the influence of also being born &… in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
- @grrlinterrupted …brought up in the West? One of the reasons I <3 Pacific Rim is that the Asian woman is the hero and it's still… in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
- @grrlinterrupted …respectful regarding her cultural/ethnic identity. in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
- @thelifeof_rose Stallone or Urban? Urban = omg yay, Stallone = uhhh watch it anyway in reply to thelifeof_rose ->

- @grrlinterrupted ALSO Charlie Hunnam's abs. And there's a cute dog. in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
- @grrlinterrupted so it's more like an incidental thing rather than because she's Japanese? in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
- @grrlinterrupted In fairness, ALL of the cast are hot. The dog is totally ok throughout. There's a lot of FEELS tho. in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
- @grrlinterrupted I'd say it's mostly not-negative, tho I'd like to see an Asian character who didn't go the martial arts route re: fighting in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
- @grrlinterrupted I'd say the most FEELS-heavy fic, imo, is from the dog's POV in reply to grrlinterrupted ->
