honestly, the central appeal of the Fablehaven/GF crossover concept to me is not the significant similarities between the two but rather the fact that it just feels like the 4 of them should be friends.
They would click so fast after an initial suspicion period. They should be obsessing over magical creatures together not existing in entirely separate worlds.
#neon's void#fablehaven#gravity falls#can anybody else just see kendra carefully going through the Journal of Secrets to determine what she can share to one-up#some random middle schooler#but it turns out the random middle schooler gets super excited and they just discuss the journals and their personal findings#for like 10 hours?#or seth and mabel planning absolutely devious pranks via seth's shadow charmer powers#also seth explaining the walrus butter that he brought and forced himself to eat#and being so upset when he learns that actually no you can just see magical creatures here#mabel and kendra discussing ~boys~ while it rapidly dawns on kendra that mabel is not in fact into boys#canon arospec event is a total stranger realizing before you do lmao#seth and dipper fanboying over magical creatures together#seth and mabel having a heart to heart about being tricked by demons into almost ending the world and then getting captured#the sorensons take the pines to visit fablehaven#dipper (figuratively) dies of happiness#mabel learns that she hates fairies#etc#DO YOU SEE MY VISION

contemporary au with my fantasy transfemmes <3
#ru'en#giuseppe#art tag#possibly inscrutable to anyone but me. whatever <3#considering changing giuseppe's pronouns to she/her only i think it makes more sense thematically and from a character standpoint <3#also. just realised how similar they are. nonbinary transfemme. no contact with family. arospec. they even have the same hair texture.#head in hands.#anyways ru'en is a former child star or lawyer or businessman or something of that kind. previously living that patrick bateman lifestyle <#then got away from that and got on oestrogen which fixed. well. not all their problems but a lot of them <3#friends with carxes. he's friends with him in most universes except the ones that are actually canon <3 very funny to me <3#last one is normal giuseppe meeting modern human giuseppe by the way <3#normal giuseppe would be so envious of her she starts screaming and dry heaving and killing <3#giuseppe in this au is more chill because. well. for one she is not stuck in the shape of a dead 12 to 13 year old boy.#and for two transitioning is easier for her in this universe <3#the transition equivalent in her main story is. um. way harder <3

Thank you Fresh (character by loverofpiggies)... For teaching me that 'romantic gestures' don't have to have an emotional connection or inherently romantic intention behind them, and can be done towards friends and acquaintances as a showing of simple closeness/affection or just because it's fun to do/fun to see how someone else feels about it.
Genuinely the concept of this character has helped me work through some stuff with how I feel about and engage with romance and that's so funny. Thank you, you weird weird little queerplatonic-esque critter.
#yea this is kinda a post for aromantic awareness week lol#i am also arospec hiii#aroweek2025#queerplatonic moment#fresh isnt canonically queerplatonic or aro or anythin he has no labels and no interest in romance! hes just a hugger and a kisser#the silly silly guy#fresh parasite#freshramble#purrpletiger

#dude explain to me WHY Thomas from the drabble is giving arospec 😶 don't get me wrong i love him as aro but like#it's so funny when i'm writing a character and i'm convinced i'm being somewhat faithful to canon and then i read it and i'm like-#oh bestie you are queer now#and also that one post from megustacat saying Thomas's love language is Acts of service/Quality time is CANON for me now#some time ago I was playing around w ship templates and came to the conclusion that my candy's love language is more words of affirmation/#quality time and girl it SHOWS. i'm sprinkling little things from the eps we have and i think that#when we get far in the story i'll look at it and think honey those are just crumbs#it's as if i was making a drabble with lysander from the first 5 eps he appeared on and having ZERO context from everything else

what are your favourite ourthur head canons? sorry if this is formatted poorly, or if it's been asked before.
non exhaustive list of ourthur headcanons that I may or may not have already mentioned !!!!!!
• Noel and Arthur love to talk shit. they’ll be haters about anything and everything. They also get into debating really niche topics that neither Oscar nor John can understand.
• John has made it a point to be extra gentle with Oscar, not because he thinks Oscar’s fragile, but because he feels like he needs to prove he’s not destructive.
•Related point- He gets very self conscious around Oscar when it comes to him being more supernatural. He thinks (even after Oscar truly forgives him for his past actions) that Oscar will hate him for being otherworldly (he won’t).
• also the ourthur dynamic is like- qpr jarthur x holy ghosts. sure there’s some old feelings between Arthur and Oscar that rekindle, and John is Very infatuated with Noel (and vice versa but for different reasons), but jarthur and holy ghosts are definitely the strongest bonds.
• that being said- the weakest is probably kingsmen. Noel and Arthur are both arospec and not really romantically attracted to each other. they still care about each other tho, ofc, and they have a strong trauma bond to make up for it.
• John goes to church with Oscar on occasion. He likes the vibe, and people watching. He also likes hearing Oscar speak on the rare occasion he leads a church service.
• Oscar is probably out of the house the most, next to Noel. He does most of his detective work in the spare bedroom tho so he doesn’t leave t h a t much. Oscar’s constantly helping out at the church. John and Arthur are basically living there rent free. They help with Noel on occasion but fr those bitches Jobless.
• Noel is the resident hair dresser. He helps both Arthur and Oscar shave and styles their hair when needed. John doesn’t need to do anything to his hair because apparently he’s just perfect.
• Oscar’s good at describing things for Arthur when John’s not around. He’s a bit awkward about it at first, but can paint a really nice picture once he’s got the feel for it. Noel isn’t very descriptive in general, and doesn’t know what to really put the emphasis on. He’d describe the way a woman is stirring her tea at a diner, but forget to mention what she looks like.
I’m sure there’s more but I honestly just wanted to think about the men for a bit so. If I think of anything more I’ll add it lmao.

Also, I dunno if it's just me, but making the robot that you want to hunt your husband down an insanely hot lady is a very bisexual thing for Caspar's ex-wife to do.
Which means that Caspar is the token straight in his own damn family
i think caspar midnight burger is straight. he had lesbian moms and also in my brain him and leif explored each others bodies and caspar was like yeah this isnt doing anything to me
#he's also the token straight in the diner#leif's absolutely bi/pan and you can't tell me that margurite and ava didn't hook up at least once#gloria feels arospec to me and i consider both of the mucklewains to be demisexual#they've canonically only ever been into each other which feels HELLA demi-coded to me#and of course we all know about caspar and fiona#midnight burger#caspar scott

It makes me incredibly angry when people say "Riz is canonically aro/ace" and act like you're a horrible person if you ship him with people. Like. Nowhere in the show is it ever stated that he's aro/ace. The conversation people reference as him being "canonically" aro/ace is just him expressing his lack of very specifically sexual attraction, and even then the response from his dad (and by extension Brennan and the show as a whole) is that it's okay, and that it's specifically unclear whether he's ace or whether it's just not something that's happened for him in specific yet. It is intentionally vague as to whether he is ace or not, and there's genuinely zero indication in the show that he's aro other than that he doesn't have a love interest which could be completely unrelated.
Right so I'd like to share my opinion on this for a brief moment. I am still fully here to give people a voice, but this is just, an issue that kinda hits close to home since I'm demiaro.
The most annoying thing in a lot of media is when representation is shoehorned in as a list of labels and buzzwords we're given. Queer people should not have to turn to the screen and say their full identity in order for them to be canonically queer. That's what subtext is for. That's what good writing does. Is not spell it out for you when it's not necessary to do so. They do not need it to be spelt out for it to be very clear that he's ace/aro.
I am going to assume ignorance here instead of assuming malicious intent. The idea that the reason he isn't ace, is because "it's not something that's happened for him in specific yet", is an extremely common thought process behind asexual erasure. I'm sure that's not what you intended, but that is something to reflect on in general.
Both Adaine and Riz have yet to have relationships or display crushes (not counting junior year since most of the evidence comes from sophomore year) . Adaine hasn't gotten an entire nightmare sequence / arc around dealing with here friends all finding partners and leaving them alone. Adaine hasn't expressed or had conversations about any lack of sexual or romantic feels to the extent Riz has. Adaine is headcanoned as ace/aro by some people. Riz is more than that. Riz is very much canonically ace/aro if you do the slightest bit of character analysis. There's accidental coding and then there's Riz Gukgak.
List of every single Riz trait that is hella ace/aro coded
A lack of sexual and romantic attraction to other people (I'm not counting the time where he said he was kinda into Sexy Rat, that whole scene was a bit, and absolutely insane)
Making up a partner/crush in order to fit in (I have 1000% done that and so have a lot of acespec and arospec people)
A fear of being left behind by his friends because of a belief that they will find partners and move on from him, largely caused by alloromantic culture's insane emphasis on how the most important relationship is a romantic one
The fact that almost every other fantasy high pc has been in a relationship or a crush (kristen had tracker and gertie, gorgug had zelda, unit, and mary ann, fabian had aelwyn, ivy, and mazey, adaine had oisin and possibly zayn depends on your interpretation, and fig has had ayda and a string of professionals in a variety of fields across seasons 1 and 2) with only riz as a single character
The fact his sophomore year arc was entirely about his lack of sexual/romantic attraction and fear of being left alone because of it
Like not even a joke, it was that and his dad, that was the whole arc
His junior year arc was also about his obsession to stay together as a friend group, which like I mentioned above, is very clearly based in his asexuality and aromanticism
I am not going to stop people from shipping characters ever. If you want to rewrite character sexualities, that's fine by me, I'm a big believer in "Don't Like, Don't Read". I am not gonna pretend like characters are not their sexuality in canon so that people feel justified in writing their stories. People who rewrite character sexuality can do so without making everyone else assuage their guilt for them. I know I'm on the "piss on the poor" reading comprehension website, but it's not hard to tell Riz is ace/aro in canon, and pretending otherwise doesn't help your case.

Siffrin gender n orientation headcanons time
Labels don't really exist the way they do irl in the ISAT world but even if they did I don't think Sif would really care to use them much. But I'll use them here for simplicity's sake
- Sif being nonbinary is canon, we all know this. For me specifically I read him as agender and gender-apathetic. Chose their pronouns on vibes alone rather than wanting a specific gendered presentation. Will accept any terms but prefers neutral ones (they'd honestly rather die than correct people). Will rock any clothes of any sort of presentation, once he's comfortable experimenting with his fashion anyway
- also canon asexual. #based. I have no further insight on this one that doesn't go into complicated and slightly TMI personal projection territory so I'll leave it at that 💜
- arospec as well!!!!! Gray-aro and demiromantic. Very rarely experiences romantic attraction at all, and even then they have got to know that person inside and out and then some to even stand a chance at feeling anything. Gender or presentation isn't really a factor in romantic attraction at all for them
#bat chatter#isat spoilers#isat#i have some more self indulgent alternative headcanons too#buuuut those go into fictive territory and don't really reflect how i view the source material#so shoutout to transmasc nb siffrin too

I found a canon (word used!) grayromantic aroallo character!
The book is called "Loving Lee" by Cozy Dubois.
The book is about Lee, an audio technician at a gay bar, falling in love with the new drag queen Carlita/Antonio. It also tells the stories of his found family members, struggling with love, work and other things. All main characters are in their 20s and 30s, and all of them are queer in some way. There's lots of bi/pan characters, as well as trans and intersex representation. It also features an alloace side character.
It's a very characters-driven story with multiple POVs. I especially enjoyed how the communication was done, and all of the characters felt very authentic to me.
The greyromantic character actually falls in love for the first time, and while the greyromanticism isn't a focal point of the story, I think it was nicely done. We get to see the character trying to handle all these new feelings and being a little overwhelmed by them.
I think it's the first in a series, but I haven't read the others yet.
Be warned, though, this book features a lot of romance and several graphic sex scenes. But if that doesn't bother you, I'd totally recommend this book! I've enjoyed it a lot. It feels a little like checking in with your friend group, and I absolutely love that.
Other than that, the novel deals with various mental health issues, past trauma, becoming sober from a drug addiction, and (extreme) homophobia/transphobia.
Goodreads page with more info
Below, I'll take more about the aromantic representation. I also have screenshots of the scene that is about the character's greyromantic identity. Spoilers ahead!
So, the greyromantic character is actually Antonio, one of the main characters and the love interest of the protagonist. He has a reputation as a fuckboy. When Lee falls in love with him, all of his friends warn Lee about Antonio. Little does anybody know that Antonio is falling for Lee just as hard.
He had already worked for the gay bar once a few years ago, and then moved to New York to chase his big dreams of becoming as successful drag queen. That didn't work out, though, and all he got was an addiction. At the beginning of the novel, he had just moved back to be closer to his family again, so he had a support system to help him stay sober. He also starts doing drag there again, and this is where he meets Lee.
In the following scene, he's talking to Jackie, his alloace coworker, who he has known for years. I found this scene very relatable. Not knowing what I crush feels like, and thinking the description sounds like anxiety, are common aro experiences, I'd say. And weirdly enough, I Jackie's answer makes me feel really aromantic, as I've definitely never experienced that.
And then, a little later, it is talked about why he uses the grayromantic label and how he feels about it (descriptions of his past drug addiction ahead):
I never had an addiction before, but I can understand Antonio's insecurities very well. It's just so hard to prove a negative, and trying to rule out other possible explanations for your feelings (or lack thereof) isn't any easier.
Overall, I think the representation was very nicely done. I think it might be the best arospec-who-feels-romantic-attraction representation I've ever seen.
#God I hope it's okay for me to share those screenshots#aromantic#aro#aroallo#alloaro#aro books#greyromantic#grayromantic#loving lee#cozy dubois#book recommendations#aro representation#queer books#queer#lgbtqia#lgbtq#lgbtqia+#books

Pines Headcanons [Happy Birthday, Grunkles]
I cannot believe I just now got reminded of this- holy shit. Unfortunately, I'm not an artist so have these headcanons instead about Stan and Ford
Stanley ‘Lee’ Pines
He’s bisexual. This is not up for debate (/lh). It just made sense for him
Stanley is ambidextrous. He can write and utilize both his left and right hands. This was something he self-taught himself in after the portal accident
On the power of ‘I said so’, Stan does have some level of book smarts but instead of math or science- it’s creative writing. He’s got the talent for it; however, he rarely - if ever - shares these stories with anyone
Stan has some form of neurodivergency. Young Stan definitely gives the impression of ADHD but also I feel he’s got dyslexia- don’t ask me why. This is canon now
He does have scars from the time he spent on the run and doing his sales. I’m not sure what they are exactly, but just know he has them
Stan knows martial arts. Other than boxing, I feel he would’ve taught himself in other forms of fighting- like the ones done on the streets and it’s a weird mix of martial arts and free-style fighting
He can be a bit of a poet, but for the most part- Stan prefers show-and-tell as his love language. He will present his partner with gifts, and makes sure they understand he’s there for them
He’s kind of protective over his partners, and definitely has gotten into fights in an attempt to protect their honor. It’s ill-placed sometimes but he’s not about to let some bozo mess with them
Stan always sought his father’s approval. He attempted multiple times to perfect his studying skills before the science fair accident, but apparently Old Pa Pines didn’t seem to notice and the rest, well, it was already history
He fantasized of being a pirate when he was a kid. This is where the whole thing of going on a seafaring adventure with Ford came from! Unfortunately due to canon events, this soured out but he held onto a photograph he and Ford took in front of the beach as a memoir
He’s very much not a big fan of vegetables
Stanford ‘Ford’ Pines
He’s arospec and ace!
Ford absolutely loves puzzles. Why? It just weirdly fitting for his character
He definitely has C-PTSD following the events of Weirdmaggedon
Autistic Ford? Autistic Ford. There is no way he doesn’t have it- I said what I said
Before he got involved in the strange and paranormal, one of Ford’s main interests was actually crystals and rocks! It felt weirdly fitting for his character, and here we are
Ford is more of a cat person. At one point, he rescued a cat-adjacent creature from an auction and named her ‘Nova’. Of course, it’s far from a cat but well, we’ll get to that later
He would be into LARP if it exists in the Gravity Falls canon. Like, that man is a nerd and already enjoys the show’s version of Dungeons and Dragons, there’s just no way he wouldn’t participate in LARP
He does have scars from his time in other dimensions for thirty years. He’s very secretive about them and doesn’t let anyone see- not even Stanley
Ford deals with the aftermath of a burnt-out gifted kid- like, he was the prodigal son and got all the right honors, scores, all of it but as he got older- the more he struggled, the more he felt like something was missing. As the golden child, he was brought up with the notion he would be important but then got smacked in the face when he realized none of it truly mattered
He had a lot of issues adjusting to his new life in Gravity Falls, Oregon after he was brought back from the portal. Ford’s triggered fight-or-flight response would kick in with unexpected situations- like, he’s definitely pulled a blaster/space gun
He likes hot chocolate
Ford enjoys cuddle piles, let’s be honest here. Once he gets more comfortable, he begins making nests with the rest of the Pines family
He’s protective of his family!
I’ll try and come up with new headcanons soon, but since I took too long releasing this- given I got sick unfortunately, I decided to post a smaller version
#gravity falls#gravity falls headcanons#stanley pines#stanford pines#stan pines#ford pines#grunkle stan#grunkle ford#headcanons#character headcanons#late queue#this was supposed to be for their birthday but then i got sick ugh#my tail is thumping so hard#not a ful hyperfix at the moment unfortunately

gimmw your gfalls hcs NOEWWW
oh god! I have soooo many but i'll put some basic ones down for the pines family rn and probably add on to this later ^_^
Dipper
◇ First of all this boy is absolutely autistic. My little autistic ass acted so much like him as a kid, I mean, what autistic 12 year old wouldn't base their entire summer around a weird book full of monsters they found?
◇ I think he's a trans dude and aro/ace, and that his crush on Wendy was more comphet than anything. I'm not really a fan of any ship involving him but I think platonic dipcifica could be cute.
◇ Cryptozoology/The Paranormal is absolutely his main special interest, but he also has an sp/in in computers/comp sci (but he's honestly not great at computer stuff).
Mabel

◇ AuDHD Queen! I think her main special interest is absolutely arts / crafts, I mean look at all the silly things she makes throughout the series as well as her dedication to handmaking dozens of puppets/props/etc as well as writing and entire play to impress her crush of the week in Sock Opera. ◇ I think sexuality wise she's not straight but prefers to be unlabelled. I also like to think she's the type to collect xenogenders / neopronouns like pokemon cards. ( she totally uses a bunch of cat-based pronouns) ◇ Shortly after the series I think she'd get a little less Boys-Crazy and focus more exploring who she is as a person / her self expression. Absolutely is gonna have a mall goth/emo/scene phase (she's smushing all three of those together into one thing for herself).
(I also think Mabel and Dipper were born identical twins)
Grunkle Stan
◇ Also AuDHD, not quite sure what his big main special interest would be but he's absolutely hyperfixated on Ducktective. Also going off the story in Lost Legends I think he'd absolutely be getting into making comics / drawing in general (even if hes not great at it). Post series I think he'd spend a lot of his free time out at sea drawing in the boat's cabin. Mostly making comics of silly re-tellings of he and Ford's adventures out at Sea (he absolutely shows Dipper and Mabel these if he and Ford video calls them when they're on land) ◇ I'm a transfem Stanley truther. He doesn't really realize/come to terms with it until post-series. I think she'd just grow out her hair and throw it in a pony-tail + use she/he pronouns to transition. She'd still use the name Stanley and be fine with both masc/fem terms (ie fine be called a man or a woman). Also he's bisexual (but has known this since he was like a teen, even if he didn't have the words to label it.) ◇ I think his Popsicle addiction from the unaired pilot is real and canon. Old autistic men love popsicles just look at my dad and grandfather.
Ford
◇ oh boy its projection time (i am a stanford pines fictive) 😈😈😈
◇ Transmasc, somewhere under the nonbinary umbrella but very guy adjacent. Mainly uses he/him pronouns but I think he'd use "it" and "they" aswell. Gay and Arospec as well. ◇ Autism + NPD + Schizophrenia wombo combo. He's sooooo NPD coded its INSANE, I am going to write an essay about it in the future. Goes without saying that his special interests are the paranormal and various sciences, but I think he has a hardcore love for the arts as well. ◇ Going off both the autism and arospec HC- I think he's the type to convince himself he has a crush very easily, when in reality he just has a strong admiration / platonic love for those in question, and had strong platonic feelings for McGucket back in college that he confused for romantic ones (projecting 100000000%) (i think the Stan twins were fraternal twins)

Best Magical Girl OC Tournament! Round 1
Honey Peluche
by @tillythemouse (it wont let me tag)
Acts first, thinks never. Fights and lives for the belief that no one should be lonely. Because she spends her ‘civilian’ time crafting and making little plush gifts for people, her ‘wand’ is a sewing needle that grows and becomes a sword. She can also summon little stuffed helpers, and as a final attack envelope an enemy in fluff and stuffing (which then explodes)
VERSUS
Vincent Michaels
by @gracebethartacc
What isn't there to say about Vince. He's a bully, everyone openly talks shit about him including himself, he looks like Shakespeare's emo cousin, he's called himself a clown college dropout, his boyfriend's heaven is his hell [emo musical hater vs campy gay theater kid], he eventually has a daughter he would kill for, the god of time A Christmas Carol's him, he repeatedly punches holes in his bedroom walls, his dad blames him for his mom dying in childbirth, he decided to be emo at like 5 years old, he thinks he's better than everyone for not getting crushes and then it turns out he's asexual arospec, one of his best memories is a kid calling him cool at a crosswalk, he's a loser, his villain foil is the boy who cried wolf, he's the in-universe fan favorite, he's the out-of-universe fan favorite, he's one of the leads in the musical with fully diagetic music and his associated instrument is guitar [no you cannot listen to the musical], his bf literally says "I can fix him" and ends up being right, he's punk, he's Italian and would pull a Luigi if given the opportunity, he has red eyes and fangs but he's not a vampire he just wants to think he's cool, he told the god of time to shut the fuck up, he's an artist but will never tell a soul, he's so incredibly cringe, one of his in-universe fangirls writes self insert fics about him, he looks just like his mom, he has to do his eyeshadow and nails on the bus to school or his dad will kill him, a crackship between him and his villain foil predates his canon ship

Something that bothers me about how people interpret Saiki is how they think he’s canonically romantically repulsed. Like it’s just not true?
He’s not repulsed by the idea of a relationship or liking someone, he just doesn’t understand it. That’s how he’s always worded it, he “doesn’t understand”. That’s mostly due to his powers, as is everything unusual he does is. But not understanding something doesn’t mean being repulsed by it or hating it and that also implies that he can come to understand it in time. We already saw it in canon when his slow character development taught him how to show love to his friends a little more and understand Teruhashi.
I totally get people who headcanon him as aspec and arospec (I personally think he’s ace and demiromantic) but it’s totally clear that he doesn’t inwardly HATE the idea of romance.

Fuck it, you guys got me thinking about Hero so here's a Hero post.
Another arospec headcanon (that I mentioned before). So my interpretation of Hero is demiromantic and demisexual. He doesn't feel love at first sight, and there's probably only a couple Vessels he had anything close to a crush on. Among those "canon routes" only HEA is a possibility, and in that route I don't think he'd really have enough time to register than he's got a crush before she's gone. But the one I'm sticking with him having somewhat of a crush on is the Heart. He was there with TLQ, who also loves her. Hero has time to understand he's romantically attracted to Shifty's Heart, which just makes it a bit heartbreaking for him to make the decision to stay behind and let Shifty and TLQ leave on their own. Idk what romantic heartbreak is like, but if it's like losing contact with a close friend, then man that would suck hard. Pair that with suddenly regaining the memories of previous routes all at once and it makes it all worse (stomach sickness from Instinct!Den, guilt from Abandonment!Thorn, HEA, loss of control from Wraith, and that again from Tower/Apotheosis).
Voice mimicry. Crows can technically mimic human speech, but since Hero is already speaking English (or any language you set the game to, it's English for me), there has to be a different way to deal with this. So instead I settled on the idea of him basically mimicking the other Voices in his sleep-talking. Never when he's awake, just sleeping. On occasion he ends up pulling off The Narrator's voice and ends up making everyone else panic. Hero can have a slightly unsettling habit that he's not even aware of. As a treat.
Weird ass nest compared to everyone else. My design for Hero is meant to be much more human than the other Voices. The others all have some form of quadrupedal movement, Hero couldn't pull it off without hurting his back. So he's overall just less bird in some ways. As such, Hero's "nest" is more like an actual bed. Everyone else thinks it's strange, but he at least seems cozy there.
#hero is seen as a bit of an oddball by the other voices#a respectable oddball but still an oddball#and of course occasionally scary as he once again manages to perfectly quote the narrator's opening monologue in the narrator's voice#then has no memory of doing it as he was sleeping but does say he thinks he woke from a nightmare#slay the princess#stp voice of the hero

I want to do this anyway, and getting the aromantic tag trending is a good excuse, so here's my masterlist of aspec headcanons and canon characters (that I know of)!
Always Human (Webtoon):
Rae (aromantic and asexual) - canon, discussed in the media itself (link)
And Another Lovely Day (Webtoon):
Nora Chestnut (aroace) - canon, main character, discussed in the media itself
Elliot Lam (aroace) - canon, main character, discussed in media itself
AstralSounds (Webtoon, Website):
Resilient (aromantic) - canon, main character, confirmed in a bonus episode (link)
Yunni (asexual) - canon, main character, confirmed in a bonus episode (link)
Avatar: The Last Airbender/Legend of Korra:
Toph Beifong (aromantic and acespec) - I really see her as thinking she has a crush on Sokka because she's never really been allowed to explore that before. But those thoughts die as quickly as they came. Later in life, she wants kids, but she really does not want a husband or long-term sexual relationship. She finds some people who are cool with that, and then raises her kids alone!
Deadloch:
Eddie Redcliffe (aroallo, romance favorable) - She just has aro vibes, okay? She does. I talked through it a bit in the comments on this post.
Dungeon Meshi (Manga Series, Anime Series):
Laios (non-sam aromantic) - I don't think he's even ever considered romance as a thing he would be interested in. Dating someone has simply never occurred to him. If someone asked him out it would certainly lead to a lot of thoughts.
Mithrun (loveless aromantic, romance indifferent) - I'm right and I know it. This unfortunately means I'm the only person who truly understands Kabru/Mithrun (/lh).
Every Heart a Doorway (Book):
Nancy (asexual) - canon, main character, discussed in the media itself
Fablehaven (Book Series):
Kendra Sorenson (asexual) - She makes one comment about "never going to the playground" in book one and I took that and ran with it
Seth Sorenson (aromantic) - I honestly just think it's fun to make one sibling aromantic and the other asexual
Gravity Falls (Cartoon Series):
Mabel Pines (aromantic) - I view Mabel's obsession with boys as playing into her own internalized amatonormativity and comphet. She'll be much happier once she realizes she doesn't actually want to date anybody (I also love the cupio and lesbian hcs, this is just my interpretation)
Dipper Pines (asexual) - once again, very fun to make one sibling aro and the other ace
Stanley Pines (aroallo) - vibes
Stanford Pines (aroace, non-partnering) - I mean the Book of Bill all but confirms this, right?
Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss (Cartoon Series):
Alastor (aromantic and asexual) - canon, main character, hinted at in canon, confirmed outside the source material (too complicated to link)
Angel Dust (asexual, sex favorable) - read a fic with this (no, I don't remember which one unfortunately) and it's compelled me ever since
Octavia (asexual) - canon, major character, confirmed outside the source material (link)
Mammon (asexual) - canon, confirmed outside the source material (link)
Marvel Comics/MCU (Comic Series, Movie Series, TV Series):
Daisy Johnson, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. show (aromantic, acespec) - vibes, but also I just don't see any chemistry between her and the people she dates on the show T-T
Ruby Hale, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. show (asexual) - canon, major character, confirmed outside the source materal (link)
Nadia Van Dyne/The Wasp, comics (aroace) - canon, confirmed outside the source material (link)
Yelena Belova, Black Widow movie, Hawkeye show, comics (aroace) - canon, confirmed in the source material (link)
Gwendolyn Poole/Gwenpool, comics (aroace) - canon, confirmed the source material (link)
Muted (Webtoon):
Silvia Severin (aroace) - canon, major character, confirmed in the source material (link)
Market Of Monsters (Book Series)/Not Even Bones (Webtoon):
Nita Sánchez (arospec and acespec) - Canon, main character, confirmed in the source material
Kovit Sangwaraporn (arospec and acespec) - Canon, main character, confirmed in the source material
Adair (aromantic) - Just how he talks about romance
Diana (aromantic) - Again, how she talks about romance
Protector of the Small (Book Series):
Keladry of Mindelan (aroace) - canon, main character, confirmed outside the source material (link)
Roar Howl Run (Website):
Ata (aroace) - canon, main character, confirmed in the source material
Seven Days in Silverglen (Webtoon):
Mira (arospec) - canon, main character, hinted at in the source material, confirmed outside the source material (link)
She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (Cartoon Series):
Mermista (fluxromantic) - mostly vibes but also it just makes sense to me
Seahawk (fluxromantic) - same as with Mermista
Glimmer (aspec) - idk what she is but it is not alloallo
Bow (arospec and acespec) - I think it's fun for the arrow-ace characters to be aroaces
Entrapta (cupiorose) - I relate to her character a lot and as such I can stretch canon to make her aroace too
Steven Universe (Cartoon Series):
Peridot (aroace) - canon, hinted at in the source material, confirmed outside the source material
Amethyst (arospec, acespec) - saw someone say this once and I liked it
The Dragon Prince (Cartoon Series):
Rayla (aspec) - Once again, vibes. I saw both her and Callum this way all the way back in S1 and it hasn't died for me.
Callum (aspec) - Vibes, read above.
The Good Place (TV Series):
Eleanor Shellstrop (demiromantic) - she doesn't fall in love easily, because she doesn't connect with people easily. Her falling in love with Chidi multiple times is a huge deal for her.
Chidi Anagonye (demisexual) - I think it would be fun if he was demisexual and Eleanor was demiromantic
Tahani Al-Jamil (aroallo) - She really just seems unbothered by the romantic parts of her relationships in the show, and her arc ends up with her staying single.
Michael (aroace) - I know this because he told me personally
The Owl House (Cartoon Series):
Luz Noceda (asexual) - If you flip her outfit upside down it makes the asexual flag
Lilith Clawthorne (aroace) - canon, major character, confirmed outside the source material (link - I could not find the original)
Vespertine (Book):
Artemisia (aroace) - canon, main character, confirmed outside the source material (link)
