"whatever souls are made of, ours are of the same matter" yes, but also have you considered two completely different souls, made of apparently incompatible materials, relentlessly choosing each other, molding each other and scarring each other to the point of creation? Wielding this disadvantage the universe handed them into new law of physics out of sheer willpower. Metal can still bask in the beauty of a moving flame and fire would still want to get close even if it means losing grip, after all.

#it's all the same thing always for me #it's choice and spite #it's choosing someone and making it fit #and if it doesn't work you keep trying till you make it work despite the difficulties the world throws at you #it's compromise out of devotion and it's seeing that by renouncing a step alonh you'll get to climb the whole mountain together #idk i just think that aroace-ness could give us such interesting twists and readings of the classical soulmate trope #i just love it #roba mia #asexual #aromantic #aroace #asexuality #love #words #am i aromantic?#am i asexual #like
