The dominant conception of race doesn't really lend itself well to the actual way people look - Bjork is a good example of someone who could pass for Asian if you didn't know who she was
For Whiteness in Europe in particular, part of the issue is that Europe isn't a fucking continent and you can just walk from Paris to Shanghai.
From memory the genes for white skin phenotypes evolved in Africa
Now that I think about it, Simon is a book smart nerd who's socially awkward and physically weak. River is a naive little girl who turns out to be a ninja Kung Fu master.
Both characters are written like lazy stereotypes of Asian people.
