My own flavor of asexuality is aegosexual. Words are hotter than people. And it took me almost 30 years to realize it, despite that time in college I got turned on by Edmund Spenser’s Faerie Queene.
You might be an aegosexual if you get turned on by an epic poem from 1590.

The Faerie Queene is one of my hyperfixations right now, but I can’t find any content on it so it makes me sad

A Gentle Knight was pricking on the plaine,
Yclad in distressed jeans and T-shirt torn,
Wherein there stood a many-shadowed stain,
The cruell markes of many a time twas worn;
Though to that point it had not clad his form:
His revving car seemed almost sparks to spit,
And sometimes uttered on its own its horn:
Full jolly knight he seemd, and faire did sitt,
As one for knightly giusts and fierce encounters fitt.
ii
But on his phone a 206 he bore,
The deare remembrance of his former land,
For whose sweete sake that glorious badge he wore,
Reminder of the place he once did stand:
And every time his number would expand,
The knowledge of his former home was had:
Right faithfull true he was in heart and hand,
But of his cheere did seeme too solemne sad;
Yet nothing did he dread, but ever was ydrad

Kroashent Character Spotlight: Acrasia Beldam
I'm currently undertaking a small creative project, developing some of the secondary characters who have placeholder articles on the Kroashent WorldAnvil page. It seems like a good place to refocus my efforts and clean things up a bit. I'll be returning to answering Q+As soon (questions are always open and welcome) and writing the next chapters of the book. In the meantime, working on a lot of commission work, so this is something of a side project when the tablet is charging.
------------
Val's Notes: Acrasia was not intended to be a major villain, but she's sort of grown into the role. Acrasia is a malevolent creature, the sort of Fae that one doesn't want to run into in a fairy tale. She is inspired by Acrasia, a minor villain in Edmund Spenser's 1590 poem, The Faerie Queene and John Keats' 1890 poem, La Belle Dame Sans Merci. Acrasia herself is cruel, cold and vindictive, but she is not without her own motivations and values, mourning her slain sisters and lost home even as she spreads her own unique brand of chaos and misery. I am sure we'll be seeing more of Acrasia.
I've included two drawings of her by the talented Veika, who did an amazing job on this nasty little trickster.
(Check out her gallery here: https://www.deviantart.com/veika)

I imagine Sansfoy to be the short-tempered older brother who says rude things like “I wish I disowned you as my brothers” but never means it and always has to apologize even though he’s still pissed at his brothers
