Hi hello hi. As an AroAce individual in a QPR who has no desire for a romantic or sexual relationship, I think shipping Alastor in QPRs is so so fun and people should do it more. I also think it works for a good amount if not all of the ships I've seen him in.

Alastor and Rosie: Hell yeah. They're already great friends and every interaction we've seen between them has been pure and adorable. Rosie Gently guiding Alastor through his identity because he isn't exactly up with the slang. Them going out for tea and human flesh Sunday afternoons. Them giving each other forehead kisses and holding hands platonically.

Alastor and Angle dust: Mhmm. Angle not really wanting Sex or romance after all he's been through. Angle respecting Alastor's identity and not pushing for anything more than friendship. Alastor not really liking Angle at first because of their differences, But tolerating him regardles. Alastor explaining to Angle that Romantic relationships don't have to involve Sex (I'm an Asexual Angle truther.) Angle offering Alastor a hug that Alastor reluctantly accepts. Them cuddling at night with a pinky Promise of nothing more.

Alastor and Vox: Go ahead. A fic about Alastor trying to Navigate exactly how he feels about Vox, Because when he died the term AroAce didn't exist, so he thinks it's romantic attraction, Maybe they kiss and Alastor is like "Ha! No!" Maybe that's why they had their falling out? Who knows.

Alastor and Lucifer: So So SO much Yes. (This is my personal favorite) The two of them hating each other, but putting up for each other for Charlie's sake. Slowly growing to actually tolerate and maybe even like being around the other. Exchanging snarky remarks in a more playful way. Alastor finding Lucifer sitting in a pile of ducks and despair and offering his hand to help him up and take him to the hotel. Never letting go of his hand. Fuck Enemies to Friends to Lovers I want an Enemies to Friends to Qpr arc goddamnit.

I do think it's okay to ship Alastor even outside of QPR's, BUT. If you do, don't just ignore Alastor's identity. AroAce people get far less representation than the rest of the LGBTQ+ community. I can think of one other canon Character off the top of my head. So it's not okay to erase the little rep we do get. In the end I think it's important to listen to what AroAce people have to say on the matter, it is our representation after all.

Opalvira: The Unexpected Union

In the midst of *The Legend of Korra*’s fourth season, a fleeting moment between Opal and Kuvira sparked a creative journey that led to the birth of the ship *Opalvira*. Inspired by their tense interaction in "The Coronation," I saw an opportunity to explore the complex emotional landscape that lay beneath their conflict. While Opal grapples with feelings of betrayal toward Kuvira, once a trusted figure within her family, Kuvira’s determination to unify the Earth Kingdom brings a magnetic intensity to their dynamic. I coined the name *Opalvira* to capture this unique blend of warmth and ambition, envisioning a narrative where these two seemingly opposite characters challenge each other’s beliefs and ultimately inspire growth. Join me as I delve into the intricate journey of creating *Opalvira*, a story of redemption, understanding, and the transformative power of love between two women bound by history but divided by ideals.

I created *Opalvira* back in October 2014, when *The Legend of Korra* was in its final season. By then, the show had reached new levels of complexity, and I was fully invested in its characters and the story’s direction. It was in Season 4, Episode 3, titled “The Coronation,” where I first noticed an undeniable spark between Opal and Kuvira—a moment that went largely unnoticed by many, but for me, it was the genesis of something compelling.

In that episode, we see Opal’s raw anger and disappointment toward Kuvira for the first time. Kuvira had once been part of the Beifong family, Opal’s family, and her betrayal hit hard. Opal was visibly struggling with feelings of betrayal and resentment toward Kuvira’s transformation from a trusted figure to a feared leader. That interaction got my imagination racing. Here were two characters so different from one another, yet undeniably tied together by shared history and heartbreak. Opal was deeply principled and selfless, dedicated to the people and her family, while Kuvira had taken an authoritarian path, committed to unity and control at all costs.

I remember watching that episode and feeling that their interaction held an unspoken tension that was too intriguing to ignore. The way Opal’s emotions clashed with Kuvira’s determination and lack of remorse made me think about how their relationship might look if things had been different. I saw potential for Kuvira to challenge Opal’s understanding of loyalty and family while Opal, in turn, could become a reminder of the past Kuvira had chosen to leave behind.

That’s when I coined the ship name *Opalvira*. The name captured the essence of their dynamic—a mix of Opal’s warmth and moral clarity with Kuvira’s strength and ambition. It was a pairing that combined two seemingly opposite characters, bound by their connection to the Beifong family and their clashing ideals. From there, I built my vision of *Opalvira*: imagining what a romance or even just a deep connection could look like between two people who were constantly forced to confront the differences in their morals and priorities. I created *Opalvira* as a ship to explore the nuances of these two personalities, hoping to flesh out what might have been if Opal’s compassion and Kuvira’s strength could have led to a deeper understanding, or even a transformative connection.

It was a creative leap that allowed me to see beyond their brief interaction and build a story that brought out the best and worst in both characters. Through my fanfiction and the *Opalvira* ship, I could give them a story that explored redemption, conflict, and perhaps even love, highlighting a bond that was never shown onscreen but that I felt could have fit beautifully within the show’s narrative.

Creating *Opalvira* was a journey that started in that brief moment from “The Coronation” but quickly grew into something far deeper. When Opal confronted Kuvira, I could see that this wasn’t just a typical antagonist-versus-heroine interaction; it was layered with complicated emotions that felt personal. Opal’s anger didn’t just stem from Kuvira’s authoritarian rule over the Earth Kingdom—it was rooted in betrayal. Kuvira wasn’t just a distant, untouchable villain; she was someone who had once been family, practically an adopted sister to Opal’s brother, Baatar Jr. I began to imagine what that history could mean in a different context, how it would play out if Opal could confront Kuvira not just as a rebel, but on a more intimate level.

One of the key things that attracted me to the pairing was the idea of redemption, and how Kuvira’s character could evolve if she was willing to open herself up to someone like Opal. In the show, Kuvira is complex—fiercely dedicated to her ideals, willing to go to any lengths to bring what she sees as order to the Earth Kingdom. But there’s something about her that suggests she hasn’t entirely shut off her emotions; she still has a sense of loyalty, however twisted it might be. Opal, on the other hand, represents a moral center, a voice of compassion and conviction. Imagining her influence on Kuvira, even as they clashed over their differences, felt like it could be transformative for both of them. I started writing *Opalvira* stories, where I could explore the idea of Kuvira gradually peeling away her defenses under Opal’s influence.

As I developed *Opalvira*, I wanted to challenge the common tropes of hero-villain romances by giving both Opal and Kuvira a chance to change one another. Kuvira’s ambition and determination made her a character who wouldn’t easily admit fault or vulnerability. But through Opal, I could envision Kuvira facing her own actions and motivations. How would she reconcile her desire to unify the Earth Kingdom with the personal cost to the people who had once been her family? What would happen if she had to confront someone who saw her not as a conqueror or a ruler, but as the flawed human being she once was?

In the world of *Opalvira*, I wanted to create scenes that pushed Kuvira to reflect on her choices, while Opal found herself drawn to the complexity behind Kuvira’s cold exterior. I wrote moments where Kuvira would let her guard down, revealing glimpses of vulnerability that Opal could see, maybe even empathize with. But Opal, too, was challenged by her connection with Kuvira. Being with Kuvira forced her to question her own sense of loyalty and forgiveness, to ask herself what it truly meant to forgive someone who had hurt her family.

I saw *Opalvira* as more than just a pairing; it became a space for me to imagine a story of growth, redemption, and emotional transformation. It was about creating a path for Kuvira to find empathy, and for Opal to embrace the strength within herself to confront her own values and beliefs. Through this ship, I was able to explore ideas about the power of forgiveness, the complexity of relationships born from conflict, and the idea that sometimes, the people who challenge us the most are the ones who have the most to teach us. *Opalvira* was, and still is, a creative exploration of what happens when opposites collide—and perhaps, ultimately, understand one another.

I would find Blondie Lockes very annoying in real life, but I love her in fiction. She's a genuinely good journalist in terms of both skill and ethical integrity, who only occasionally forgets to check the facts because she's fifteen and holds herself accountable when she does. She has incredibly high standards for everything and believes herself to be the ultimate authority on quality. She has magical lockpicking powers because her fairytale is about Goldilocks breaking into a house. She somehow completely ignores the story's moral that Goldilocks was wrong to break into the house, feels entitled to go wherever and help herself to whatever she's able to and cannot comprehend why people dislike this. She's been terrorizing an anthropomorphic bear family with her cheerful disrespect for privacy and is convinced that they love her. She has a non-anthropomorphic pet baby bear. Her motivation is dependence on external approval rooted in deeply internalized classism. She's desperate to be useful and important to those with higher social status and feels the need to lie that her family is technically royalty to fit in with her royal friends, even though they treat commoners like equals all the time. She positions herself as a conduit of true greatness; closer to it than the masses, but never the hero, always reporting on other people and evaluating what they've done. Because what she's done isn't enough to be worthwhile. What she is isn't enough. But this performative lifestyle makes her anxious about being judged as a fraud and an interloper, and ashamed of selfishly transgressing against social norms. Her microphone head looks like an adorable little bear head. That's one hex of a character alright.
