So I posted the first chapter of the Agender!Steve fic, and as far as that goes, it's going well. But I'm having trouble with characterization of the side characters, and can't find anything freely available that shows the Dora Milaje as independent people with distinct personalities. I'm not sure what to do. What if I pay for the Ta-Naheesi Coates run of Black Panther to read and there is still too little characterization to base my versions off of? T'Challa is well characterized in the movies for as little screen time as he had. But is that based in the comics?

I am thinking of going back and writing out all the plot. This is what I get for not ruminating this all out before I begin writing.

There are several Dora Milaje who have a large part in Coates' Black Panther run.

Ayo and Aneka in particular are great characters. They are lovers and their backstory is told in the short-lived Black Panther: World of Wakanda series by Coates and Roxane Gay.
