I Can Fix Velma

[@eliseosterbrink8000]

Velma turning into Bane and going on long, unhinged rants over a school intercom system while the people around her constantly ask if she is trans was something that I didn't know I needed in my life. Thank you for this beautiful season 2.

One thing I'd change is that in the Second Season Velma is the main target for being murdered and they have a crazy hard time figuring it out because quite literally everyone in Crystal Cover outside of her Dad and Norville have at one point wanted to brutally murder the shit out of her because of how insufferable she's been, showing that being a massive entitled shit heel doesn't make you endearing.

[@georgemeyers7172]

Ironically It wouldn't be about Velma in that case... but this might be one of the only times a bait and switch might actually work due to Velma being an absolute bitch... and yeah. So many people would want her dead so many people would have a motive. So it could work a lot better with her being the main victim.

[@aericabison23]

@@reactiondavant-garde3391 funny you mentioned that, because in my idea, Fred (who is now named Preet) is actually very fair in complexion. He’s a Sikh boy with dark hair and very fair skin, and orthodox Sikhs typically grow their hair and beard out and they are raised to be brave and generous. Sikhs are historically known for being brave and resilient warriors and they were very active in our freedom struggle from the British. They still play a major role in defining our collective culture and there are numerous Sikh communities all around the world as of late. The desi Fred is just like the original character- a strong and courageous young man who calls the shots and sets the traps for capturing the mysterious ghoul in the episodes.

You know what this feels like? Alan Wake.

He can’t write, “And then the bad guys vanished, the end” because the villain can exploit the plot holes involved. In that sense, you’re rewriting Velma in a way that seems to be playing along with the dumpster fire of a story that Kaling and Grandy came up with.
