[emissary-of-dog]

augh. aro but only in the case of real people. i am very very very interested in some fictional characters you see

[rwuffles]

chatters let's scare off the exclusionists together ♡

if you use good faith labels, whether you're usually open about them or not, share what they are! i'll start:

i'm a bi gay sapphillean!

killer eating food in front of horror as a way to taunt him. duuuude do you see this delectable parfait he has in his hands right now. he just put a spoonful in his mouth. horror is scratching at his own arms right now (trying not to jump this bitchass). killer can't even taste it LMAOOO another bite ‼️ imagine not being able to eat food 🤣🤣🤣 killer can't even taste it and enjoy the food but horror can't even EAT food

then horror grabs the parfait glass out of his hands and oh killer you should probably teleport away before horror does to you what undyne did to his eye

I wanna talk about

Max and Elizabeta potential QPR

Because I think they would actually make for something really good. They've been friends for a long time. They were FWB, before things fell off. They care about each other in ways that are hard for them to explain, but they know is more than simple friendship, but isn't romantic.

They aren't dating but they'd kiss each other when they say goodbye. They'd cuddle whenever Donna brings Elizabeta to the castle. They're closer than typical friends are.

(hi this is aroaceleovaldez it's a sideblog so i cant send asks from it hrg) a.) always love seeing your tags on my posts lol you have very good opinions [handshake emoji] b.) i'll be honest i wasn't even thinking about the awful pjo wwii stuff when i made that post i was thinking about the new, *different* antisemitism from TOA. of which there is. even more somehow. 😬 also fun fact Rick saying Reyna is allo-ace-coded on twitter might have actually semi been directly because of me, because he said that within like 2 hours and 2 tweets of replying to an open letter i wrote where i literally said that the way he wrote Reyna in Tyrant's Tomb falls into aphobic tropes and Isn't Great. despite replying to it i dont think he actually read it, lol. he then almost immediately left twitter for like 4 years and he also has since deleted his reply. fascinating stuff, truly.

anyways please excuse me digging through your hazel tag cause i am constantly dying trying to find hazel-focused fanart and you have one of the few good hazel tags i've been able to find. picture me scurrying away like some sort of small creature here.

hi thank u!! i appreciate your posts abt disabilities/ableism especially bc it's such an integral part of the story and a lens that gets lost despite that

i'll be honest, i haven't read toa (only short snippets when i want to see a specific scene), so i just read this article abt it, and it's frustrating that almost every example of diversity rick includes is riddled w harmful stereotypes. like, google is right there to help you avoid at least some! (psa to anyone else reading this, google "harmful [x] stereotypes" before making a character you're unfamiliar with!) the wwii stuff...rereading the series again like two years ago shocked me bc i had completely erased the entire plotline from my memory as a kid. some of these choices have me questioning the editors at the time, bc there were definitely things an editor should've pointed out if they were reading the full text.

your power! lmao but that behavior is exactly what makes it so difficult to give rick real feedback. i know some fans claim the older fandom is too cynical, but if we've been trying to give the same advice for years it's going to get old fast. every good change is accompanied by something else (especially noticeable in how percy is treated), so it always feels double-edged. but i'm glad you said this actually bc i didn't know he specified allo-ace! i had assumed he said aro-ace, but that actually makes the way ppl behave abt lesbians identifying w reyna more alarming...regardless i'm glad he's including ace rep bc it's rare, but the way reyna and the hunters were handled is...confusing at best.

please enjoy! i love hazel sm and i recently just went thru someone else's blog and queued a bunch of posts in a very similar fashion lol

Aroace ppl can still have relationships and stuff. They are still gay-

Oh yeah of course, I know this! sorry if it came across another way!

[goldiipond]

bravest thing you can do is post strictly platonic art of an m/f pairing an entire fandom agrees is romantic. you know them better than anyone else never forget this

[unripe-lemon]

the straight to oh shit gay is an option? to lesbian to bisexual to lesbian again to non binary lesbian to pansexual to bisexual to definitely omnisexual to bisexual to lesbian to queer to aroace pipeline was such an emotional roller coaster and it didnt even feel like it ended on a satisfying note.

[sammydem0n64]

Tbh fellas my identity has reached a point of true “idgaf” (it has been like this for months actually. Lolz.) Thinking abt it gives me brainrot. Pronouns? Idc call me whatever. Gender? I am not a man that’s all I got. Sexuality? Idk. I don’t wanna date people tho!!!!!!!!! I don’t wanna find myself!!!!!!!!!!!! I am Aaliyah sammydem0n64 and I am autistic and that’s it‼️‼️‼️‼️

[arolesbianism]

Sigh. It begins (being forced to see the worst aro hcs I've ever seen in my life because ppl have a talent for finding the absolute worst characters to be their token aro hc)

[sureuncertainty]

like not to say there's not valid criticism of hazbin hotel but it's ridiculous to me the way that the most common arguments i see are 'character design bad' and 'too much swearing' (!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?)

like. i swear the puritan culture on this website is going to drive me insane. this is tumblr. everyone here swears constantly so i'm not sure why that's a problem? maybe i'm just a dumb immature ace but i actually find excessive swearing and sex jokes to be hilarious.

like literally why are you following me if you're hating on the show because of these things, my art style is very much inspired by/similar to Viv's style, so idk why you'd like my content if you think it's so egregiously horrible. also i swear a lot. so literally just unfollow me since you can't handle swearing
