Olivia and Paula from the HBO series "The White Lotus."

Can anyone write some fanfic with these two?

I find these characters and their whole dynamic captivating. There are lesbian undertones to it, but I actually think their relationship is more interesting and weird if it's not sexual. But there would still be lesbian undertones and hetero sex (at least talk of it). There's some interesting politics going on (the series is overtly political at points). I'm also fascinated by characters who don't know they're racist - as well as racist undertones, metaphors, subtle racism, the writer putting their own sociological viewpoint on things, etc.  The Olivia/Paula relationship is ripe with this stuff. The series periodicity hints at the racist undertones of their relationship, but I'm hoping a writer can lean into it more.

Thoughts?

Have you thought of writing something yourself? Your introduction to the series is clear and concise, so I'm guessing you'd have no trouble putting your own ideas into words. Go for it!
