On Lucanis and ace representation

I have mixed feelings about it. Spoilers ahead, obviously.

On the one hand, I have been writing ace representation into Dragon Age fandom for at least five years by this point; I have made posts speculating which characters in the franchise could be read as aspec, I have critiqued the conflation between apparent aspec identities and brokenness that happens so often in mainstream media, and I have longed for a canonically aspec character in the stories I love. To me, however, this new declaration about Lucanis does not feel like a victory.

It feels convenient.

Mary Kirby tweeted six months ago that she specifically wrote Lucanis to be a disaster bisexual, not panromantic demisexual. In the real world, of course, people can discover new things about themselves and change their labels, and it’s fine. The problem is that Lucanis is not a people, he is a character with a static set of responses to a limited set of inputs from the player. In other words, he is what he is. That this change in Word of God about his sexuality comes directly on the heels of the very poorly received AMA from the devs is something I don’t view as a coincidence.

To be clear, this isn’t an attack on Mary Kirby, nor is it a tantrum about not getting a sexy Zevran 2.0. I am ace – I love slow burn emotional depth before physical intimacy, and I was drawn to Lucanis because of his struggles with alienation and the softer playfulness that’s there to see if you look for it. (And the voice, and the wings, but that’s not relevant here.) However, there is something severely lacking in the connective tissue of his romance. For the first two thirds of the game he is unresponsive to flirting to the point where the game feels like it’s bugged. Multiple people have pointed out that it’s almost impossible to tell when the romance is locked in without looking at the companion screen – I myself only realised when took him to Rivain with Taash and they started talking about him popping out the wings. The idea that this woodenness was a deliberate choice does a disservice to everyone who has pointed out a valid critique of the content – mechanically, rather than narratively – of the romance.

It is also immediately contradicted if you don’t romance Lucanis. Because instead he gets together with Neve in a relationship that not only lacks the emotional closeness that is required for Rook to lock in a romance, but also gets physical far more quickly, which is the exact opposite of how demisexuality works. For Rook, romancing Lucanis requires repeated declarations of support and care, and he will only fully reciprocate once they have battled through his inner demons to encourage him to start healing from his trauma. Even after that there is no physical touch between them until after Rook is pulled from the Fade prison. Neve, meanwhile, is one of the locks on his cage, but creates a ‘hats off’ rule for Spite. It's like watching Aveline run around finding marigolds for Donnic all over again. Not to say that all ace experiences are the same, but if someone described these two relationships to me, I would assume only one of them involved a demisexual character.

Truthfully, however, this isn’t really about the evidence for whether Lucanis is or is not demi. You could argue that back and forth all day because interpretation goes both ways. For example, he says he’s inexperienced in relationships, but then he’s arguably more competent than the other companions who ask you for romantic help, more lacking in confidence than skill – and analysis of that is a whole other post. But it’s not useful. There isn’t one way to be aspec, and I’m certainly not saying he can’t be read that way.

What this is about is the way representation feels like it has been retconned in as a response to the genuine critiques brought up in the AMA and elsewhere. Excusing the gaps in his romance by saying it’s because he’s demisexual feels like a cheap attempt to divert attention away from weak character writing. Perhaps I’m just being cynical, but after all the dodged questions and misrepresentations from the devs in almost every aspect of this game, if Lucanis had been planned as aspec from the beginning then the TRANS WOMEN ARE WOMEN game would have made a huge thing of it. I know this, because they did it already, they stated all the companions were pan (except for Lucanis who was bi).

And I don’t know what’s worse: it not being planned and only trotted out as a smokescreen to avoid engaging with the flaws in the writing; or it being there from the beginning without any care for how it might look to have the ostensibly aspec character be a literal abomination whose interpersonal issues stem from being imprisoned and tortured. Again.

A good slow burn would have addressed Lucanis’ relationship to attraction, though hopefully with more nuance than Taash was allowed. A good slow burn would have not made one character exchangeable for another in a romance regardless of the personal journey Lucanis can only take with one of them. A good slow burn would have at least had him reacting to the things the PC says to him. But this is not a good slow burn and the devs are using a token attempt at queer rep to cover for whatever went on behind the scenes to give us such a patchy final product.

I saw something in the internet that made me think of this so...

Newho Doctors and their sexuality (headcanons)

Nine: aroace and just happy to be here

Ten: ace but the most romantic fucker there is, if it were for him he'll still be mopping about Rose. He's monogamous and jealous. (It's not his fault he's hot and everyone wants to snogg him) (pansexual)

Eleven: teenage boy who just discovered what sex is and is so down to it (also he's married to River and really happy about that). Into Clara but wouldn't be with a human because he's scared to lose them). Monogamous and really jealous. (Pansexual)

Twelve: demisexual and demiromantic idiot (not because of being demi but because he just is), has known River (his wife!!!) for more than a thousand years (or 4.5 billion years if you count that) and can't kiss his wife when they see each other again after so long because it's too soon (they still have 24 years). Has known the master since they were kids, been through so many lives together yet she's been on the vault for 75 years and it's still too soon, has kissed him and he doesn't reciprocate even though he loves her. Hates to be touched by everyfuckingone (though I believe that if he saw Donna again, she would be an exception). Polyamorous and somehow still jealous. (Pansexual)

Thirteen: fucking ball of sunshine (and repressed sadness) that loves everything and everyone and it's even more oblivious. Not averse to sex but doesn't really care (would sleep with River or Yaz if they wanted to but gets more excited by infodumping on them). Polyamorous and very happy about it, the more people there are to listen to her rambling, the best it is. (Panromantic and sex positive ace)

Fourteen: bisexual man in their fifties who's just afraid to date anyone ("He was, wasn't he? He was so hot"). Falls for every psycho they find. Only personhe woudn't fear to date is River and he woudn't be that much into sex even though he'll still enjoy it and would probably be the one to initiate it. In a queer platonic relationship with Donna. Polyamorous and not jealous (has to explain to River why the game -him being jealous and she enjoying it- is kinda ruined but he still loves her very much).

Fifteen: bisexual man slut, thrives on physical contact and "human" interaction, enjoys sex a lot and finds it a need. Always has an emotional connection even if it is a one night stand, the people he sleeps with really enjoy it too. Polyamorous, loyal to a fault, always offers informed consent: he's married, they're both poly, etc. River sometimes joins in. (Slightly hypersexual)

“why do young people now hate sex? We did it all the time!”

have you considered that your friends could’ve been lying to look ‘cool’ because not wanting/not having sex meant (and often still means) people (like you) would make fun of and socially ostracize them for being ‘prudes’?

You raised generations to think their bodies and libido were sins. But now you’re up in arms that more people are openly admitting that they aren’t interested. Isn’t that what people like you wanted, for younger people to not commit sexual ‘sins’? Are you mad if it worked? what?

This same line of thinking gave us the dichotomy that men and masculine people are supposed to have lots of sex with women and feminine people, but women and feminine people should be ‘pure’ and ‘virginal’

(btw there’s nothing wrong with being a virgin, its neutral, it just means you haven’t had sex. there is something wrong with acting like people who have or haven’t had sex, based on their perceived gender, are more or less worthy than other people. AKA the way purity culture treats virginity.)

Uhm. Which is it? Or does that actually not make any sense when held up to scrutiny?

Maybe Gen Z and younger millennials just aren’t telling you about their sex lives. Or maybe you’re not including anything outside of your narrow heteronormative idea of what sex can be. Or maybe young people are having sex but those who aren’t are now talking about it openly.

Maybe Gen Z and younger millennials aren’t having as much sex and are happy about that. Maybe it’s sex positive, actually, to be able to say “no thank you” without fear of embarrassment from one’s peers. Maybe it’s sex positive to accept if fewer young people are sexually active.

And maybe it’s none of your business and you’re just weirdly obsessive and controlling other people’s bodies and sexuality. Maybe you’re just making everyone uncomfortable, the way you were once made uncomfortable by the social expectations of your elders.

And again… people do lie to fit in. Not out of malice, but because humans are social animals. You’re telling me no one you know ever lied about getting with someone, or didn’t make something up to try and look cool? Come on. We both know that’s just not true.

You can do better than to pass your trauma along to the next generation. If younger people are pressuring each other less about sex, that’s good. Nothings wrong with that. It’s good to let people safely say “no thanks, I’m good”. To me, that sounds like progress, not prudish.

The last dorm diasomnia. The theme for them was mythological creatures with the extra rule that only Malleus is allowed to be an actual dragon(this was added because otherwise I would have had 3 dragons)

Small notes about the designs:

-Lilia is griffin, but I did take the creative liberty of giving him bat wings(I know a wyvern will be perfect, but they are still technically dragons). His feline part is based on a margay. Also yes he is upside down because he always seem to spawn on the celling so it felt fitting.

-Silver is an unicorn, it was perfect for him(and is partially the reason for the theme).

-Malleus is already a dragon although like always I used my own design for him.

-Sebek is longma(a chinese winged dragon horse. I needed something that was part reptile due to his crocodile inspiration and this just fit). I gave him a crocodile tail instead of a dragon one.

My thoughts on them:

-Maleus my 3rd favourite character. Honestly never thought I will actually like him as a character when I first saw him in the game(mostly due to his design and description), but the moment I realized he was the exact opposite of that and he has the personality of a giant lizard obsessed with gargoyles he become one of my favourites.

-I have a soft spot for good dads in fiction(or at least ones that try their best to be) and Lilia is exactly that.

-Silver seems so sweet and I always wanted him to get a little bit more screen time since I want to learn more about him as a character(at least we have book 7 now).

-I actually didn't care about Sebek until book 7, which made me actually like him as a character(honestly the best character out of the first years).

Headcanons:

-Malleus, Silver and Sebek are autistic.

-The reason Malleus never keeps his tail when in public is because he uses it as a way of stimming (by wagging it around constantly) and doesn't want to accidentally hurt someone with it.

-Malleus(any) is agender(I don't think he has a gender), panromantic and demisexual

-Lilia(any) is queer. He doesn't care about labels that much so just queer works(also he 100% dated both of Malleus parents and Sebek's grandpa in the past)

-Silver is panromantic and ace

-Sebek is gay, but in complete denial about it

ROTTMNT LGBTQIA HEADCANONS

💜Donnie💜

I think he would be Non-Binary, probably interchanges between They/Them and He/Him, but prefers He/Him

BIG Aspectrum vibes, I'd say Demiromantic, sex repulsed Asexual

He doesn't really give a crap about gender, as long as he has a connection to the person, so I say Pan or Bi

🧡Mikey🧡

A very popular Headcanon of his is Genderfluid, but I think more of a Demiboy or more male aligned, but he honestly doesn't mind anything. He/Him or They/Them, mainly he/him though

He doesn't really think that much about physica/sexual attraction when it comes to his partners, so I say Aceflux or Demisexual

This boy loves you for you, gender don't matter, race don't matter, it do t matter as long as you're a good person. Panromantic baby boi

💙Leo💙

Transmasc, lots of evidence points to it, and I also fall into the category of people who believe that Leo is Trans. He/Him the whole way.

He loves the idea of a relationship, both romantic and sexual, but can't really get connected to someone enough to persue one, so he's Cupiosexual/romantic

Say it with me. RIDE IT LIKE A RAINBOWWW! This mans is gay, full on fruit ninja, he didn't come out the closet, he broke it off its hinges and took that shit with him. HE LIKES MENNNN

❤️Raph❤️

Actually the only cis one out of the brother's, he was born male, he is male, he/him.

He doesn't really have time for relationships since he is busy dealing with his brother's shit, but he also is AroAce and can't really find it in him to be attracted to someone.

If her were to though, he'd be Bi. He swings either way, it doesn't really matter.

💚April💚

I say Demigirl April, mainly just me projecting, but yeah, she's a Demigirl, she/her and they/them

Not really on the Ace Spectrum, just a plain ol Lesbo. She and Sunita are girlfriends change my mind. We stan Lesbian April on this account.

🤎Casey Jr🤎

Future bean is still questioning, since his identity was never a big concern during the apocalypse, he is being bombarded by the fact you could be more than just a boy and a girl, so currently, Demiboy, he/him.

Found out he was Asexual from Donnie, all those times he literally almost three uo during Uncle Tello's lessons in The Birds and The Bees made sense now.

Like I said, questioning, but for now he's going with queer, since he isn't sure of himself yet.

[bitch-spectrum]

!!YOU ASKED FOR THEM!!

This post hit 5 likes so, headcanons.

PART 1/3

I'm not doing every single character, just the ones that felt plot important to me. These are (mostly) based on pacifist/true ending.

!!!OBVIOUSLY SPOILERS!!!

Ace

Personality Headcanons: He used to be a hardcore gambling addict as a way to cope with his post-war stress. He was also probably a heavy drinker. Both of these things he's had a solid recovery from since joining TF4. Starlo probably found him down on his luck and in a lot of debt. He still drinks and gambles, just not nearly as much as he used to. He's probably somewhere in his mid 30s ~34-37. He's the last person you want to play casual poker with though. He always wins. He's also pretty good at throwing darts but doesn't bother with it as much as card games. Physical Headcanons: He's left handed. ~5'09". He has to walk with a cane sometime from a childhood accident that never fully healed due to the lack of medical access in the underground. Because of that too he doesn't know exactly what his condition is either. He just knows some days his knee hurts and some days it doesn't. Gender: Trans Male Pronouns: He/Him Orientation: Demisexual Demiromantic but just says he's aroace for simplicity. Post Game: Life continues on as it was going for him without much drastic change. Opinions: I really love his design, I just wish we got more of him. 3/5.

Axis Personality Headcanons: He doesn't need to eat but will feel left out if you eat without him. Chujin would always have lunch with him at the lab while he still worked there. Axis would try to mimic eating sounds to feel included. Like imagine robot voice going "Om nom nom." Thats sort of what he did. While locked away in the abandoned lab he started to grow really fond of bugs and mice. Physical Headcanons: I don't have many other than Chujin based his design after a drawing Kanako did. Somewhere around the high end of 4ft. Gender: He doesn't have the RAM for a gender. Pronouns: He/It Orientation: Asexual Panromantic. He loves his trash girlfriend. Post Game: He got married to the girlfriend Clover and Ceroba made for him. Neither of them personally wanted kids so they made a trash dog out of spare parts. Eventually Axis ran out of battery and or was too damaged from sitting inactive for so long that he broke down. He was thankful that his trash gf and trash dog didn't leave his side in his final moments. Somewhere in the abandoned lab, he's sitting, holding her hand with their dog at his feet. They'll probably stay like that, undisturbed, for a long time. Opinions: He's a really cute character. I sort of wish we had more time with him instead of seeing him as a late game enemy. Very silly. 3/5.

Ceroba (I'm going to get turned into a sandwich for this) Personality Headcanons: She smokes out of a cigarette holder. One of the really long ones. She only started smoking after Chujin died. She has a lot of baggage she tends to just push away and not ever address even when it affects her and others around her negatively. She has a really strong victim complex and while yeah, she hasn't exactly been dealt the best hand, she also tends to make things worse for herself on purpose to get sympathy from other people, as to why she picked up smoking after Chujin died. She used to be a model but quit modelling when Chujin was dying. After her husband passed she tended to be neglectful of Kanako until she found her in Chujin's home lab and the rest is history. She tends to take advantage of people's generosity, especially Starlo's, she's always been like this but the habit only got worse over time. She does genuinely feel like she has nothing despite having friends because she believes her own shallow feelings towards her friends are mutual when that isn't the case. She's in her early 40s ~40-43. Physical Headcanons: She has a mombod (more body fat in her lower half, flatter chest, smaller arms but wider legs) and she can work with it. I know she canonically wears a bow in her hair but I like to interpret it as a bandana. Her hair is usually messy. Even if she doesn't have the energy to get well dressed or style her hair she ALWAYS puts on eyeliner and makes it look sleek and demanding so everyone knows she's not someone they want to fuck with, with just a single glare. She's ~ 6'02". Gender: Cis Female Pronouns: She/Her Orientation: Bisexual. Was always kind of curious about polyamory but never enough to have a talk with her husband about it. Post Game: Asgore was really thankful that she had collected a human soul and gave her all the credit, which she happily took. Martlet and Starlo didn't want that on their names. She had a short lived fame once again during which she seemed to be doing better, thankful to be back in the spotlight, even if it was a small one. But after a falling out with her long time best friend she began to live as a recluse, rarely stepping out of her home. Opinions: I do NOT like her and I find it really hard to sympathize with her character. Her writing? Solid. I like that I don't like her. I liked that when I was watching a playthrough I was screaming at my TV because I actually kind of hate her. I actually think she was an excellent twist villain. I ADORED her character at first like "YES!! Country gal's kick ass! She's a bad bitch." But yeah uh... after finding out what she did to both her child and then did the same thing to Clover I kind of lost my love for her. Which is fine because the twist was good and when I looked back there was a lot of foreshadowing. 5/5. Fantastic writing.

Chujin Personality Headcanons: Had some kind of anxiety disorder. Probably also OCD. He HATED humans with a burning passion. Like to a dangerous degree. He used to go on rambles about how angry humanity made him to Ceroba but one time one of his angry rambles frightened Kanako because she thought they were fighting. So, he stopped talking about it when she was home. He wanted to do everything in his power to protect his daughter. He'd be turning in his grave if he found out what Ceroba did to their daughter. He had several of her drawings/paintings/crafts in his cubicle. He passed away ~35-36. Physical Headcanons: I don't have many. Short king. Probably like ~5'03". Gender: Said male on legal forms but had a whole gender crisis he never got to figure out due to passing away before he could find a comfortable label. Pronouns: He/Him but was experimenting with they/them. Orientation: Bisexual Post Game: N/A Opinions: GOOD background character. I don't agree with a lot of his methods but that's fine. He was written so well I actually felt able to peer into his life through the limited scenes we got with him. 5/5.

Clover (HELP TUMBLR GOT RID OF YELLOW TEXT???) Personality Headcanons: Had a neglectful mother and a father who was probably abusive in multiple ways. They either lived in a trailer or a small mobile home. They're from the southern USA. They have an obsession with Old Westerns (from ~50s-70s) and Detective shows (from the 90s). When they decided to go looking for the missing kids they couldn't decide if they wanted to be a cowboy and go into the underground shoot-em-up style or go dressed up like a detective and be all cool and casual about collecting evidence. They decided to be both and call it being "A Cowtective." They're around the age of ~9-12. At home they would usually sleep on the couch. If their father was drunk and passed out on the couch they'd just sleep on the floor because they weren't allowed in their parent's room. They probably say "fuck" a lot. Starlo was trying to get them to cut back on swearing. Probably either a December Capricorn or a September Libra. Physical Headcanons: Freckles. Brown eyes. Gapped teeth. ~5". Tends to pick scabs so they have a few small scars here and there from relentless picking. Gender: Nonbinary Pronouns: They/She Orientation: Lesbian, but probably would have eventually picked a different label if they had the chance to grow up. Post Game: N/A Opinions: I actually really like that Clover has both personality but is also vague enough for the player to put themself in their boots. This is what really makes for a terrific silent main character. I would have liked to get to know Clover a little bit more tbh. 4/5.

Dalv Personality Headcanons: I don't actually have much on Dalv. He probably likes Funyuns and watching true crime. Probably in his 20s. He's about the same age Kanako would be if she grew up. Maybe a little older but not by much. Physical Headcanons: I like drawing him with completely black eyes. I don't see it a lot but I like it. ~5'08" Gender: Don't Have One Pronouns: Don't Have One Orientation: Multisexual of some sort Post Game: At some point somehow, word probably got to him about what happened to his friend that vanished (I'm with the theory squad that says his friend was Kanako). He get's REALLY pissed off at Ceroba and cuts ties. He doesn't really leave Snowdin much but it's fine because, carrying the memories of Clover, he makes a lot of new friends and even becomes pretty popular in the small town. RAREPAIR: He starts going out with Martlet. Opinions: To me he felt kind of lack luster. And as the first plot-important character we meet in the game, he didn't really rope me in. He felt kind of like a last minute decision. I dropped the game a few months ago because I didn't feel pulled in until I finished it this May. However, his name is vlad backwards which gets points. 2/5 Keed Vampeer.

Part 2 ,, Part 3

[errinkmare-fan]

TLDR: I’ve been thinking a lot about ErrorInkMare and I wanted to braindump some of my logistics. None of it is canon, but more based off of retained tropes I’ve absorbed from the fandom overtime. Like Nightmare alone has very different traits depending on who you ask. I just threw some ideas out there is all. Don’t take any of this too seriously. :)

I love ErrInkMare for the sole fact that it’s a dumpster-fire of a ship. Like:

Ink Sans -> literally cannot feel genuine emotion. purely thoughts, which he can make logical responses to with his fake emotion (vials of paint)

Error Sans -> haphephobia which is the fear of touch (I think), where his body will violently glitch out which I would presume is painful or uncomfortable for him to experience against his will.

Nightmare -> not sure where I heard this but in some versions he can’t experience positive emotion so depending on how you view love as an emotion he can only experience the negative feelings that comes with love like pain and loneliness? Or he can’t experience the emotion of love altogether.

Depending on your definition of fanon, since there are an infinite amount of AUs out there with questionable canons all together…

My only conclusion is that leaves us with an aroace, a panromantic demisexual, and a pansexual cupioromantic… at best. (At worst, probably all of them are aro/ace and hate each other which doesn’t give the ship any leverage.)

So this ship only really realistically works under the conditions that it’s a poly queer-platonic type relationship, and Error would be ok with being in a lithromantic relationship where the other two can’t experience romance towards him back.

Likewise, Ink and Nightmare are unable to touch Error. Ink doesn’t even experience sexual attraction. And my headcannon only works of Nightmare is able to experience sexual attraction, which is very possible he doesn’t. Similar situation for Error.

So how would this ship even work then?

Nightmare might like having a sexual relationship with Ink since it doesn’t need to involve romantic feelings or attraction, just the feeling of touch can be more inviting than nothingness. Having intimacy, or the illusion of it, with someone is probably the closest he can get to having a romantic relationship.

So sometimes he has intercourse with Ink, who can’t reciprocate or feel anything for that matter but maybe finds peace of mind that it puts Nightmare at ease a bit.

**Maybe Ink even takes negative emotion vials to give Nightmare something that will bring him joy. Nightmare can feed off the negative emotion of others right? Maybe that’s the one time Nightmare experiences happiness anymore.

Error might have romantic attraction to both of them, very aware that he has a type and it’s romantically unavailable people. They go on dates anyways and NM/Ink will do romantic acts (without touch) for Error because it makes him happy: Gifts, spending time together, words of affirmation, and some acts of service.

Error *can* create mass amounts of destruction, which causes negative emotion, which satisfies Nightmare who can praise Error.

So the whole ship is together for the point of being mutually beneficial. Nightmare gets a good deal from it. Error gets to have a relationship with his crushes who don’t reciprocate but don’t reject his feelings either. Ink… well… I can’t think of a reason it benefits Ink besides him trying a new relationship for the hell of it. Maybe for the experience or maybe because with the dynamic it feels less forced than maybe previous ones. Maybe he wants to get closer to his friends this way, since him and Nightmare have a more sexual platonic relationship anyways.

This ship, made with tender love and care, is not meant for the wary heart.

This is a hill you die on. Features:

*barley working logistics (more technical than a home depo)

*enough angst for several lifetimes

*enemies to lovers x3 plus

* what if error and ink are enemies (protector and destroyer) but comes to a truce through their mutual enemy nightmare. And they form a truce because dream is the real villain to them all, none of them really pursuing true happiness for everyone. And the boyfriends aren’t really part of the star sanses but they aren’t bad guys either, they’re just nightmare’s boyfriends.

*And optionally, depending on your version of fanon, nightmare and ink learn that error has two brothers, geno and fresh. And they aren’t bad guys or star sanses either but they’re in laws with a really stupid dynamic. The list can go on after that depending on who you ship with who.

*one person falls apart it all falls apart

*but despite that it can be cute like Error wants to go on a date with Nightmare and Nightmare gets him chocolate and Error is just taken aback with the gesture and falls harder in love with him which makes Nightmare a little sick with all the positive emotion but he selflessly sucks it up.

*like the appeal is that it’s imperfect. It’s delicate.

*Error needs to be in love with both so they can both balance between his in unrequited love but genuine care. Nightmare gets sick at positive emotion but at least he feels it while Ink can’t feel it at all but sure as hell can act it out for him. They both care for Error but not in a romantic way is what I’m getting at.

*Nightmare gets what he wants from both sides. Genuine emotion from Error and a fabricated selfless effort from Ink.

*these two in turn makes the exchange interesting for Ink.

Ok rant over.

[cosyrosemary]

me

The drawing is mine, and I’ll explain why I’m sharing it under another name instead of my actual usernames I’m known for.

I’ve known for about 9 years now that I’m demisexual.

I discovered it by accident. Not even joking… I was actually looking up information on asexuality, because some of my friends were half joking about another friend being asexual (due to the lack of partners, I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️) and I didn’t think he was asexual. I don’t know why, but I just didn’t believe he was. So I got curious and looked it up. I barely knew anything at all. But I did not expect to find my own sexuality in the process.

Growing up I never understood what people meant when they were talking about “that hot guy” or whatever. Sure I could see someone was aesthetically pleasing to look at. But that didn’t make me want to hook up with them. I didn’t understand attraction. Not as a child, not as a teen and even in my (young) adulthood it was a weird concept to me.

I know that because I appeared “straight” to the outside world, that I didn’t suffer like many of my fellow queer people. But I guess you could say I was hiding it. And to be fair, to an extent, I still am.

I’ve been in long relationship (mid teens to early twenties) before, with someone to whom I was not sexually attracted in the slightest. I also did not have a deep connection to them, despite being in a relationship and living together. Whenever we were intimate, it was because he made me. I did not enjoy it, I never really have. I had no desire in that sense. I hated being intimate. And I thought this was normal for women!

It wasn’t until my husband that I realised I could in fact be attracted (both sexually and mentally) to someone after all. I always thought something was wrong with me. Since -despite various partners- I never found anyone particularly hot (and besides my husband, I still don’t). I did not understand what that felt like. And people who knew made fun of me or they didn’t believe me. Especially during my childhood and teenage years. It made me feel like a weirdo.

I’m now a married woman in my late thirties. I have a husband and we have kids. My husband knows I’m demisexual. It doesn’t change a thing for him.

But reading about demisexuality really helped me find some missing pieces of the puzzle.

For the past 17 years I’ve been in a monogamous relationship to my now husband. So I doubt I’ll ever get to figure it out for real, and I don’t have the desire to either because I don’t feel I’m missing anything (thought I can’t deny I’m curious what it would be like with someone from the same gender!). And I have never said it out loud… But I think I’m a panromantic demisexual. How I know? Just something I feel I guess. I always assumed I was straight because I was supposed to be according to the media and those around me.

And yet, I feel like a fraud for even saying I’m demi or grey ace.

When I just discovered my own sexuality, my gay friends did not understand and were upset!? I never felt the need to say I’m also part of lgbtqia+ or queer or that I was deserving to take part in pride. But why the hell wouldn’t I be? I have been oppressed too, albeit less than someone who is actually out.

I don’t feel comfortable yet coming out and I don’t know if I ever will.

But I have been dropping hints -jokingly- that I’m the A+ at the very end of LGBTQIA+

It’s a start.

It's really interesting how we can learn and grow with help from these labels. I've kinda had a similar but also opposite experience with aromantic and asexual.

When I came out as trans, I looked back and reevaluated my life. I filtered out all the supposed romantic desires that were just a mixture of gender envy, pressure to be perceived as a normal straight male, and platonic aspirations with that person, and all of the supposed sexual desires that were just a mix of gender envy, pressure to be perceived as a normal straight male, testosterone sex drive (which always felt imposed and forced and never fully me), and self-imposed pressure to have an "excuse" to focus on that person in a way that would look less creepy than the kind of obsession that happens when you're repressing the real reasons why you're interested in them.

At the time, when applying that filter, and also conveniently either not remembering or not yet understanding certain critical aspects of how certain relationships had made me feel, and also conveniently still operating under constricting heteronormative ideas of what does and doesn't "count" as a romantic or sexual relationship, I made a brand new conclusion, very real to me at the time, that I had always been aro/ace, because the most I'd ever really wanted to be and do with people up to that point was friendship.

Then within a few months of confidently projecting myself in social settings and feeling good as myself, I started to experience what I know now was intense demisexual desire, hypersexual even, but only for people who'd gotten real close. I even stated to kinda barely cooperate with flirting, in this very cute and repressed way. It was the first time I'd ever deliberately flirted and enjoyed the idea of flirting at all. Then I fell in love for, I thought, the first time. It wasn't, but it was the first time it was both reciprocated and conscious. That relationship was a whole can of worms that didn't end well, a story for another time, but after a few months of getting over it, my new HRT sexuality kicked in and suddenly my friends were all really hot.

Now when I look back on my entire life, there actually were times that I was falling in love with someone, sometimes reciprocated, sometimes not, sometimes kept entirely secret within my deepest psyche. I had a lot of forced interactions with random people that can be summed up as either just gender envy, or wanting to be friends but not knowing how, or wanting to be friends but she wanted to date the masculine mask I had on (kind of amazing considering how awful I was at ever acting masculine), etc. But some were much more than that. The funniest thing is even though I was a repressed transbian egg living in an area with zero other sapphic folks to talk to, I still had a version of the regular repressed cis lesbian experience. I spent my entire childhood crushing on and sometimes almost dating trans masc eggs and even one cis man, but I didn't start really finding myself and figuring my stuff out until near the end of high school, when a hot girl who I was already friends with took it upon herself to spend months constantly flirting with my dense autistic ass, and then I spent a few years in and out of love with my best friend, but she either wasn't gay or wasn't into me that way.

So like, the best terms for me at the end of the day are just panromantic demisexual sapphic/lesbian nonbinary woman who is still unpacking a lifetime of involuntary suppression. But I still have a certain relationship with asexuality and aromance.

As I get out more I'm finding that most people I meet who identify as asexual still engage with sex on their own terms. One of them is the person I idolize the most at this point out of everyone I've ever met. And her relationship with sex is *so* much like mine. And she still fucks, but on her terms. So although plenty of asexual folks do not engage with sex at all and that's a fair and valid thing to respect and not question, it seems to me like you don't *have* to be in that category to identify with the label.

In my case, I think I still identify to some degree with asexuality because of the fact that in most situations where it is generally expected that people will be horny and flirt and have sex and etc. I still don't experience any interest strong enough to act on, on account of being *so* demi. And people don't know what the heck I'm talking about when I tell them I'm demisexual. It's actually quite shocking and unexpected to me how few people have heard that term, even within the LGBTQ community. So for the sake of quick and honest communication, I often have to tell people I'm ace even though I'm really demi the same way I often have to tell people I'm a female woman girl she/her lady even though I'm actually a hyperfeminine enby. That's just what it takes to more reliably get the treatment that I need and deserve from strangers in today's society. It works super well, almost like a secret code, because most of the people I really want to flirt with and be closer friends with are so close to my specific corner of the transfem community that they know exactly how I'm operating. They can tell off vibes alone the deeper meaning behind it when I say "hi, I'm ace and a trans woman." They can see the super horny pan/demi femby that I really am because they've been around. And all the super straight cis folks and men that I'm not as interested in being involved with sorta leave me alone more. It's hecking awesome.

Romance obviously doesn't come up as much in conversation. The few times that strangers decide it's relevant and important to hear from you what your romanticism label is, it's because they want to gauge if they can date you. So as a woman who's used to unwanted advances from men, I will happily and shamelessly tell a complete stranger "I'm aromantic" instead of specifically saying that I'm not interested in them, because it's sadly very dangerous to do otherwise. If they perceive you as free and full of desire but just not interested in them, they often take it as a personal attack. If they think you're just not capable of what they want, they let you be.

Today, a comic about how i realised i was not actually Aromantic but also a comic about how I'm really dense sometimes and need things spelt out to me, even when they are obvious to everyone else and its my own feelings i should be noticing 😆

Hazbin Hotel Theory: Does Rosie Know About The Other Ace Types...? Part 1

[Note: Hazbin Hotel Season 1 Spoilers, and this post is for Mature Audience Readers Only, so Not for kids that are under 18 and 16...also reading this theory is optional, but this is still for mature audience only. but kids still ain't allowed to read it. only those who are the proper ages can, who's parents doesn't scapegoat mature content.]

yeah, I wanted to post one more thing before I log off...

and it having to do with a theory, about if Rosie knows about the Other types of Aces, and yeah she knows that Alastor is a "Ace In The Hole"...and how Alastor acts when after she says that, is just too adorkable for words...

don't know how many even viewed that moment of Alastor's response to being called a "Ace In The Hole" by Rosie, as Adorkable.

there can be different types of Aces, and yeah while some can be Aromantic, there can be some who are Aroflux and maybe a bit Gray-Aroaceflux that as a added romantic identity.

like if Rosie were to meet some new sinners, two girlfriends who ended up dying together and they are wearing different buttons that represents their sexuality, asexuality and romantic identities.

and one of the girlfriends, has a Sapphic button.

while the other has what appears to be a Ace button, but it has a small heart in the middle with the colors for Bi, which can mean that the girlfriend is Biromantic-Ace.

I'm not sure if Rosie knows all the different types of Aces who will not only be Aromantic, but also have some who can be Bioromantic, Panromantic, and well there is Demi.

like some can be both Demisexual and Biromantic, and I'm not 100% sure if Charlie is a type of Ace or not...I mean maybe it could be possible she might be Biromantic/Demisexual, I'm not 100% sure.

we know that she is suppose to be Bisexual, but with how Vaggie went from Lesbian to Sapphic, and it seem that someone once, I don't know who, had changed it back to Lesbian in Vaggie's Bio, and it was changed back to Queer (Sapphic)...

my guess is that it could of been just one of the fans of the show, who could of changed it back to Lesbian, and it had to be someone else who knew the change, who had to fix it.

I'm not sure if it will be confirmed that Charlie is Biromantic & Demisexual, plus I could be wrong and she could only be Bisexual.

there are different types of sexuality and romantic identities.

and not all of them will be the same, and some can be more of a tri-identity I guess, which could mean they could have more than one romantic identity...

if Rosie had learned about Aces and even knows that Alastor is a Ace in the hole, there could still be some types she has yet to learn about.

one of them being that some Aces, do have boyfriends, girlfriends and or partners, and they can do certain 18+ stuff with their significant other.

what some do get wrong about some Aces, is that they think all Aces stay Virgins, I mean being a Virgin doesn't really have to do with our sexuality or asexuality or romantic identity.

my Semi-Androphobia is separate from my being Gray-Aroaceflux/Fictoromantic...

and I think one of the reasons I had that panic attack in the car in 2015, might of been because of a Semi-Androphobia and the thoughts and fears...some of which, I'm not gonna get into right now in this post.

I also want to say, that I'm going to break this theory into two parts.

because I well, at first hadn't plan to talk about this at first and was going to log off before this theory pop into my head.

and well, I can't help but wonder if Rosie knows about the other different types of Aces with different romantic identities.

Alastor still seemed to be really Adorkable after Rosie said he was a ace in the hole, not sure how many will have the same view though.

anyway when I'm able to, I will make part 2 of this.

also when I'm able to, I can talk about that weird Eggman poll I had made before, I know I had checked out before about who got the most votes before when I wasn't log on...

some of them were a bit surprising, and if I remember right, it was Eggman from Sonic Boom that got the most votes.

but I can worry about talking about that poll later...which had to do with who thinks which version of Eggman is the most attractive.

right now, I'm just going to log off and maybe I'll go lay down and go to sleep, and wait until later to watch some episodes of some of my favorite shows and even watch a movie as well...

I might not make part 2 of this theory right away, but I will try to get around to it when I'm able to. cause Rosie knowing or not knowing about the other types of Aces, had got me curious.

[whats-those]

Hey hey hey I wanna talk classic who

I started watching it last year and finished it a month or two ago. I watched almost every episode (skipped a lot of one and two but I’ll go back and finish them sometime soon). Fuck it was good. I’ve loved modern who since I was a wee child and jumping into classic who was the best decision I’ve ever made. Since modern managed to retain the vibe of classic, it was just more of my fave show!! Gah!!! I love it!!!

My favorite Doctor was Three until he was more recently usurped by Six (I’ll save my emotional rant about how poorly people treat Six for another day). Or, really it was Eleven first, then Ten briefly, then Nine, then Twelve before I watched classic. Really, I love all of the doctors (except Thirteen but through no fault of her own. She got screwed over by the writing).

The Master is probably my favorite character besides the Doctor themself. Delgado is my favorite incarnation but I’ve been really into Roberts recently. Oh my god the TV movie was wild. (Oh yeah, and I ship Best Enemies)

Sexuality and gender headcanons time!!

- The Doctor is agender and panromantic. They switch between asexual and demisexual depending on the incarnation. They/them or any pronouns, doesn’t really care. Every incarnation looks literally fantastic in a skirt btw I’ve drawn almost all of them in one

- The Master is the same. Could literally not care less about pronouns (stupid human nonsense)

- Zoe is a lesbian

- Jo is a lesbian

- Leela is a lesbian

- Sarah Jane is a lesbian or perhaps bi

- Romana is queer. All Time Lords are queer by human standards

- Tegan and Nyssa are in love and both lesbians

- Turlough is ace/aro

- Peri is bi (Oh my god I love Peri she and Six are my favorite doctor+companion pair)

- Ace is a lesbian (she and seven are my other fave)

- They somehow managed to make all modern companions up to Bill feel compulsively straight and I do not appreciate that. Early 2000s-2010s vibes just feel heterosexual to me

- Oh wait there’s Jack <3 Omni king. Yooo I hate Torchwood with a passion but I love Ianto. Anyway that’s unrelated.

Okay that’s it. Gotta save more rambling for another post. If you like classic Best Enemies I wrote a six/ainley!master fic which you can read on ao3. There is no demand for that ship but I love it. It’s in Evelyn’s POV so it’s even less accessible rip. Here’s the link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/36714172

Thanks for reading (absolutely no one made it this far lol)

LOTR LGBTQ+/MOGAI HEADCANONS!

Disclaimer! This is just my personal opinion based off mainly the movies and the books, and from things the cast/Tolkien has said. Definitely not canon and just for fun!!

Frodo Baggins: He/they pronouns, graysexual aromantic. He and Sam are in a queer platonic romance. When he does feel sexual attractions, they lean towards guys.

Samwise Gamgee: He/him pronouns, pansexual panromantic. He’s a hopeless romantic who longs for a domestic life, which includes Rosie and Frodo.

Meriadoc “Merry” Brandybuck: Look at me and tell me that is not the most transmasc haircut you’ve ever seen. They/he transmac. Bisexual demiromantic.

Peregrin “Pippin” Took: The other half of the bisexual disaster duo. Both bisexual and biromantic, and gets a new crush every week. Has never been on a date in their life. They/them pronouns. Aragorn: He/him pronouns, omnisexual omniromantic. He doesn’t get crushes that often, but he does find a lot of people attractive. He thought Legolas was attractive for a while, which made him realise he has a soft spot for elves.

Legolas Greenleaf: Genderfluid and uses any pronouns. He’s free, like nature. Their sexuality is unlabelled, though he tends to lean towards more masculine-presenting people.

Gimli: He/him, bisexual panromantic. Gets almost as many crushes as Pippin. He and Legolas have an on-again, off-again relationship.

Gandalf: Wizards have no gender, he is a triple A battery: Agender, Asexual spectrum, and Aromantic spectrum. He’s also gay. He doesn’t care what pronouns people use for him. He hasn’t cared about sex or relationships for decades.

Boromir: He/him but he wouldn’t care really if you used they/them. Gay disaster, has women bffs and a major crush on Aragorn. This is true and you know it.

Éowyn: She/they/he non-binary ace for the win. I’m thinking her romantic orientation is unlabelled. She and Faramir started as a QPR and then actually fell in love.

Faramir: Demisexual Demiromantic, he/they. His love for Éowyn is so sweet and pure, the kind of love that only comes with an emotional connection. Best LOTR relationship, FIGHT ME.

Éomer: They/he pronouns, asexual gay? I feel like he hasn’t really figured out yet because they’re just preoccupied with other things. He loves shipping Éowyn with Faramir though, and he ships some of the other riders.

Arwen: She/they, bisexual icon. Powerful and she knows it. A literal badass and only Aragorn is worthy of her. Wants a mix of domestic life and adventure.

[necropolis144]

may i interest you in some hashira headcanons?

rengoku kyoujurou - first off, ftm. the man is trans. second, autistic. avoids eye contact? little to no volume-control? just the way he responds? yeah he’s autistic. he also loves cooking but he sucks at it! it makes him super happy when he finishes making a meal no matter how badly it turns out. he also gives off demisex/ro vibes! also he totally has a soft spot for people who have had to deal with shitty parents/guardians since he finds it easier to empathise with them.

shinobu kochou - she hates kids. she tries so hard with her tsuguko and the kids at the butterfly mansion and she wants to like kids but she just can’t. also, her favorite insects are not butterflies! she likes praying mantids, they’ve been her favorite since she found one in her house when she was super young. she’s also a lesbian, and like most of the hashira, she had a crush on mitsuri when she first showed up! now mitsuri is her biggest supporter in both her identity and her search for a girlfriend!

tomioka giyuu - he’s considered changing his name so many times it’s not even funny anymore. at the end of the series he does everything he can to learn to love himself. it starts small, “wow look at me go i straightened my futon” “i made myself breakfast, what a legend” and eventually he finds it much easier to casually make jokes about how “great” he is with a lot less sarcasm than he would before! everyone cheers him on and them caring about him helps a lot!

shinazugawa sanemi - sanemi likes to read! he doesn’t like super pretentious novels, but he enjoys ironically reading odd romance stories and unironically loves books on natural history! although he gets bored if they’re too easy or too hard to read, so he has to find ones with a good intermediate balance. and he’s never ever cried when he got too invested in the plot in the romance novels, never once *wink*

himejima gyomei - we all know he’z the dad friend, right? i feel like everyone has to agree on this. obviously oyakata-sama is the real “father figure” but himejima takes it as a personal duty to check up on how everyone is doing every now and again (especially giyuu because nobody trusts him to be okay) and when anyone is feeling down at all he cries with them and he makes for a pretty good therapist in a pinch. he’s also aro/ace. when he first learned abt romantic/sexual attraction he was a bit skeptical, but he supports all of the other hashira and their romantic pursuits.

muichiro tokito - genderfluid, has the biggest neo hoard out of all the hashira. they love going out with mitsuri for lunches because she’ll buy them as much food as they want. she’s not one to judge. their memory lapses also cause them a lot of distress, and those are the days when therapist himejima™️ comes in. also muichiro has chronic psychosis, and while they’ve figured out how to work around it, it hasn’t been the easiest thing for them to deal with.

kanroji mitsuri - panromantic! pangender but fem-aligned! demisexual! amab! she’s kind of in queerplatonic relationships with all of the hashira. she’s the cheerleader of the group, which puts a lot of strain on her at times. which can cause her to break down every now and again, but it’s nothing a group bonding session can’t help! she’s an extrovert at heart and feels the most happy and energized when she’z spending time with her friends. also, may i present adhd mitsuri who hyperfixates on different romance novels? (she totally doesn’t give them to shinazugawa when she’s done *wink*)

iguro obanai - i saw it/rot iguro once and i haven’t looked back since. its gender identity was severely influenced by rots trauma. honestly iguro sees rotself as more of a disgusting “thing“ than a person. uzui and muichiro didn’t understand this at first, and thought that was more of an obscure way of describing its gender than an insecurity, but since they rolled with it for so long soon it just became a source of coping jokes and an easy way to describe rots gender. it also picked up a knitting hobby? so rot makes masks for itself for fancy occasions when the bandages don’t cut it.

uzui tengen - poly king. polysexual, polyamorous, polygender. uses so many neopronouns and probably keeps a list. he also has a ton of xenogenders that he feels on a rotation, and whenever he gets thrown out of the rotation he acts very dramatic. sometimes he cooks for his wives and he’s way too good at it. his yelling problem comes from when he was little and he would talk very quietly, so nobody could hear what he was saying and they weren’t patient enough to deal with it, so they just encouraged him to yell. he’s trying to pull back on it because sometimes it makes suma cry (it doesn’t take much to make her cry but he feels so bad every time)

[royalty-subway]

heyo!im so happy to find someone who also likes sordward and shielbert the same way as emmet and ingo!^^

also,do you have any lgbtq headcanons for any of them?it’s alright if not,im just being a curious critter :]

*cough cough* I love your art btw *cough*

aaaaaaaaa thank you very much! ;w;

But yeah, I have a few headcanons for that. I know I mentioned a few of them here and there. I even made a drawing of it right here (I was thinking of remaking it though. So I made some below this post- ;w;). But I sort of updated it a bit. Especially for Sordward because at the time I couldn't think of anything for him. I even made headcanons for other characters like Elesa (I suppose I could talk about my headcanons for her as well- ;w;).

But I decided to go into detail on how they feel about their own orientations and such. Just to give a better idea of what they are like. And I’ll point out at least three headcanons for each-

So Sordward right? Well… he’s a bit confused about his own self. I mean, he believes that he’s straight and nothing more. But I feel like he’s actually abrosexual and demiromantic. Like, he prefers dating a woman. At least he thinks? Ah. It’s all confusing and complicated for him. Since sometimes he’s pan, then ace, then straight, and all that. He just doesn’t know how he’s feeling or if someone else can understand what he's experiencing. But he can still date, which is where the demiromantic part comes in. Like, he can date anyone romantically. But he needs to have a very close bond with that person if the relationship would work. If there’s no close bond, then the relationship won’t last. He’s not picky with dating, mind you. He’s just trying to figure things out as he mixes his “crushes” and “squishes” a lot. And I feel like he’s non-binary as well. He usually goes by he/they pronouns.

I can see Shielbert as bisexual. Like, he can date either a guy or a woman. Although funny enough, I can see him being gay too. So maybe he prefers dating guys, or maybe once thought he was gay during his teenage years? Like, where he had a crush on a guy, but never confessed to them since… he feels like he was going to get shit for that (or at least he thought, he doesn’t really know if anyone would care since it’s no one’s business but his). But during adulthood, maybe he figured out that he was actually bi? Like, he’s cool with either group. But like, I can see him being genderfluid too, but like, he’s cool if people just want to stick with he/him. Mainly because he doesn’t want to be bothered telling everyone that he’s going by they/them and then she/her after 5 minutes.

I feel like both Subway Bosses are at least in the asexual spectrum. And I think Emmet is asexual and panromantic. Mainly because he doesn’t know what sex is. Nor process the concept of such. Even if someone were to tell him about it, it won’t work. Even if he knew, he’d still be ace because WHO THE FUCK CAN THINK SUCH A HORRIBLE THING?! Anywho, he’s not exactly attracted to any genders at all. He can date anyone, regardless of gender. So he’s panromantic. Although, if he were to have a crush on someone. He would be blind to it since he doesn’t bother with dating at all. He’s not even exactly interested in that sort of thing, but he can still date. By the way, this man doesn’t go by any pronouns. Like, he doesn’t see himself as a girl or boy. Just something that exists. You can refer to him as whatever you want chief; he/him, they/them, she/her, anything. Although people just go with he/him which it’s okay in his book. So I guess he’s agender as well.

As mentioned, I feel like the Subway Bosses are in the asexual spectrum somewhere. I feel like Ingo is sort of demisexual (a bit close to asexual too)? Like, he doesn’t usually feel any of those sorts of feelings. And even if he does (which is VERY rare, he would need to have a close bond with the person), he prefers to ignore it entirely or do something else. He’d NEVER initiate such things upon the person he’s dating (even if he wanted to, which he wouldn’t), nor let the person he’s dating do such things to him. While he’s also biromantic. As in, willing to date either male or female. As long as they can accept him for who he is; him being ace to the max and in love with his job. While his gender identity… it would maybe be demiboy. Much like Emmet, he doesn’t see himself as a specific gender. But because everyone in his entire life sees him as a man, and he’s kinda willing to be seen as one and going with the term demiboy instead of identifying as a man fully. Like, half boy and half… something else. Still, the pronouns doesn’t change, it’s still he/him.

… But here’s a funny thing, I can also see Emmet and Ingo being aroace (or aspec). So perhaps they’re both aromantic as well or instead? But they can still date people. It’s just very unlikely due to one of them being blind to his own feelings and the other one is married to his job. And they’re both not really THAT interested in dating. They can happily live their life as single people.

Elesa, right? I mean, I could see her either being polysexual or a lesbian. Polysexual is when someone is attracted to multiple genders but not all, it shouldn’t be confused with polyamorous (which it’s basically more than two people dating each other- ;w;). And well, we already know what a lesbian is. So maybe she prefers to date women than men? But she’s not against the idea of dating a guy if she does genuinely like them and if they’re close to her (if she's poly, that is). And I can also see her as being trans. She doesn’t exactly have a preference for pronouns? I think those who are close to her, or even chums, may go with she/he/they. But outsiders are they/them.

And now, here's my cringe.

… I get that a lot of these headcanons are kinda in the asexual spectrum (that being asexual, demisexual, aromantic, demiromantic and abrosexual), but eh, I have no explanation for that. I mean, maybe it’s because I’m a bit aroace myself- ;w;
