#in my case though it's no in a Very Aroace way where i'm choosing to believe that for my own peace of mind even though it's unrealistic

Hi! I just wanted to say how lovely and interesting you make your platonic radiostatic :)) I saw your stuff on TikTok and I’m loving seeing it here as well!

I see so much one-sided or romantic radiostatic, and while I love it all, this is by far my personal favorite depiction of their relationship. Your art makes them look like such cuties even while they’re two of the scariest demons in hell <3 my personal fav so far is Al laying with Vox while he recharges it’s just so cute!!!

If you don’t mind me poking your brain of it I’d love to hear more about your AU and headcannons! If you want to bounce off of something specific then I’d love to hear how the residents of the hotel think of Alastor and Vox and if they clump them together or think of them differently.

In any case I adore your art and hope to see more of it no matter the fandom!

I'm really glad you like it!!! I didn't expect it to get this reception at all as I was planning on it being something more along the lines of "Comfort" after seeing so much Angst content, so I'm genuinely glad so many people liked it!<33

As much as I like the ship I wasn't entirely sold on seeing it in a romantic or suggestive context; I rlly love that Alastor is respected as an individual Aroace (as a fellow Aroace lol) so seeing him in contexts of that sort were a bit ... demotivating??? So I wanted to create this Au of them being typical husbands but on a platonic way.

The residents of the hotel definitely have different opinions. On one side is Charlie who sees this as a great miracle, the two great entertainment representatives from hell, giving her hotel a chance! Especially when her relationship dances very well between the two of them; with Alastor there is "the voice of reason", the one who offers a solution and listens patiently and undaunted to whatever news she gives him, where she knows she will find an answer as Alastor chooses the pen over the sword; while with Vox there is the chaotic, where the sword is above the pen. He vocifies his opinions tactlessly and offers the less gentle, quicker and more effective ways. In him Charlie finds far more vivid emotions than Alastor would be willing to unveil.

Then there is Vaggie who is of course the most informed about these two and her concern is very much on the edge as she knows that the Media Demons are a couple that absolutely no one knows anything about beyond the false image they paint in their shows and the imminent danger these two represent.

Angel, Pentius and Cherry don't really have a strong opinion about them as they pass over or ignore them. Nifty is already more than familiar with both of them.

Husk (his relationship with Alastor is considerably "better", even though Al still owns his soul, than it is in canon as Alastor still owning his soul and having a faithful and warm companion with him for years, his personality is arguably somewhat more relaxed and patient than the original), like Nifty is already familiar with them so he doesn't give the matter much thought.

And Lucifer ofc is terrified that it's not just one but two Overlords who apparently want to steal his daughter.

I still have a lot of polishing to do on this Au as it's new but I want to slowly build it here as people can offer different points of view that can be explored (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡

Dear Yuletide Santa 2024

Hello Santa! I'm sorry I'm late with my letter. Everything happens so much. I signed up to get my foot in the door and I didn't manage to post this before the draw. I'm sorry!

I'll keep things simple.

Do Not Wants: Omegaverse, AUs that fundamentally change the canon (I do like canon divergence), PWP.

Do want: Mission Fic, PINING, angst.

I like happy endings but it's best if it takes a lot to earn it. Don't give it to me for free!

THE SILVER CASE

SUMIO AND KUSABI

I'm a bit obsessed with this relationship. Just about anything with them will make me happy. I like to read by the canon that Kusabi is in love with Sumio, although whether it is mutual doesn't matter, and Kusabi might not even admit it, so romance is optional. (I actually like to think that, based on the canon, Sumio must have rejected Kusabi after Flower, Sun and Rain... presuming of course that Sumio Mondo is Sumio Kodai. Kusabi definitely seemed ready to say how he felt. I'd love to read that fic, if you'd like to write it.)

Mission/case fic is always my favorite, and it's easy to utilize when the characters are cops, if you so choose. If you'd like to spend time with other characters in the tag set as well, I would love that. Also happy to see any other characters in general, and I would also love any overlap with the other Kill the Past games.

MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM

CHAR AND AMURO

I'm copying this from last year's yuletide letter because it basically sums up my desires. My knowledge of Gundam is very limited, but I'd love someone who knows it better than I do to really flex here.

Please please please give me the Amuro/Char ship fic of my dreams. Or, alternatively, the hatefic of my dreams. Or just 1000 words of a very spicy interaction. I watched the OG Gundam recently and was very depressed to find the AO3 pickings for this pair were disappointing. I've seen Zeta and Char's Counterattack as well so feel free to use that info and if you go further than that I won't understand the references but please have fun. I am too excited to even think of prompts.

Perhaps they meet up somewhere at precisely the wrong place at precisely the wrong time? Perhaps it's the opposite and they become unlikely allies? Maybe they get stuck in an elevator together? I think the keyword between these two is "friction" and sparks fly, but not necessarily in a good way. I think their relationship is juiciest in the CA/Zeta era but I don't care where in the timeline you put it. Please harness your own internal burning fujoshi soul and have fun and I'll love it. Noncon and dubcon scenarios may be interesting to explore here, if that's something that would interest you.

FINAL FANTASY VI

LOCKE AND TERRA

This is actually where I DON'T want romance, though I feel like their relationship could turn on an axis where it could feel that way. I think I just clock Terra as aroace, though she seems interested in romance. I don't think she'd have the words for these things, but Locke seems to have the emotional IQ not to push her.

I like to think that Locke treasures her, more like a little sister. He means it when he says nothing will happen to her, but he is also the man who, when the world ended, gave up hope on everyone immediately and went off in search of something to fix the FIRST girl he failed to protect. But that's irrelevant (unless it interests you?).

I find stuff that explores the world of ruin VERY interesting. Maybe you could even just ruminate on the place of one or the other there. No other characters are off the table, as long as Locke or Terra are the primary focus. Getting stuck together to complete a task (like their adventure to Thamasa) would be great. Maybe Locke gives her a lecture on how maybe she'll find someone or maybe she won't and it would be fine either way. Maybe Terra gets him to confess to things he wouldn't tell anyone else. Please have fun with this!

[bots-and-cons]

My request, if that's allowed, is you. Everyone has their own fantasies with robots. How about you? What would your character be with robots and would you choose to be with autobots or decepticon give us a little about you ..

I found this to be a really interesting ask tbh, and I'm really happy you requested this. I had never thought of writing something like this, but I really liked the idea the second I read this ask. All of my reader insert stuff, (especially the ones that aren’t requests) are a bit of a self-insert in some way, since of course the way I write comes from my own experiences in life so the reader would react similarly to me

•Honestly I’d like to say I could be with the decepticons, because I find them to be such an interesting bunch, even though very chaotic

•But couldn’t really agree with what they’re doing, you know, trying to take over earth and such

•So I would definitely be with the autobots, and I feel like I’d probably like to have Ratchet or Optimus as a guardian

•I can get along with just about anyone, even though I don’t really like many people, but I don’t think I would get along with Magnus

•I just feel like he would yell at me and I absolutely hate it when people raise their voice at me

•Like I don’t know what he would get mad at me about, but I feel like it would happen

•I don’t really like teenagers, I find a lot of them to be annoying, but that’s probably because I felt that way when I was that age myself and have not really associated with anyone that age since

•However I do feel like I would get along with Miko, Raf and Jack, with Miko it might be kinda on the edge but I think I could manage

•But I feel like it would a bit of a distant older sibling thing for me rather than friends

•I find Arcee to be a bit annoying, but I also admire her for who she is

• I think I would clash with her sometimes, but I would definitely be on her side when she’s lecturing the trouble trio about sneaking out again

•Optimus is probably my favorite out of the autobots nowadays, he’s a tired dad and I’m a tired dad-friend so I think we would get along well

•And I feel like he would give good advice and be a good listener, and I can reciprocate the good listener part at least

•I’m aroace, or maybe demiromantic and ace, in any case I feel like I connect with fictional characters much more than actual people sometimes, and because I write fanfiction I can pretty much write anything or make the characters do anything, which is probably why I feel more connected to some of my comfort characters than actual people sometimes

•Anyway my point is, if I were to start a romantic relationship with someone from the team, it would definitely be Optimus, because I feel he would get me the best, but I would be friends with him first

•I’m super bad with crowds and many people at the same time so I probably wouldn’t even be able to interact with the whole team at once, and I probably wouldn’t be very close with the whole team, just a couple of them

•Smokescreen is pretty close to me age vice I think, but I don’t think I would be very close with him or Bee, they have way too much energy for me

•I would get along with them sure, but I wouldn’t go to them with any of my problems like I might go to Optimus or Ratchet

•Wheeljack is also in the “too much energy for me” category and I don’t really have anything to say about Bulkhead, I don’t hate him or anything though

•I feel like I would feel really bad for Knockout after hearing that Breakdown had been killed

•If I were in TFP, I would not like Megatron at all, like fuck him honestly

•Also I would be fucking terrified of Airachnid, because she’s just straight up scary, I would probably lose sleep if she knew where I lived

•As I do, I would make a lot of dumb jokes about pretty much everything, because I cope with humor often

•I think I’d get along with most of the autobots, and Knockout too, and I think I’d have a good time with them 

[aspecpplarebeautiful]

As an aroace I'm genuinely afraid of spending the rest of my life alone. I'm past 20 and never in my life have I had a significant other. My biggest concern is that since I despise sexual contact, no one will ever want to spend the rest of their life with me. Thoughts like these make me feel very broken, as if there was something wrong with me, even though I know that it shouldn't be the case.

It’s definitely a common fear, and it doesn’t help that we live in a culture that really tries to put relationships in a really narrow box. Which makes it harder to find people who might be OK with doing things differently.

It may help to remind yourself every once in a while that there are people who want what you want, or would enjoy what you want, even if it may feel hard to find them sometimes. And have every right to seek out the type of life and relationships that will make you personally happy.

Also remember that society being rigid and trying to force people in boxes is not a reflection on you, and doesn’t make you wrong or broken for not fitting that box. People exist on a huge spectrum, and everyone deserves to be acknowledged and treated as valid. So try and place that blame where it belongs too, on society for pushing that message, and not on you for just happening to feel that way. Feelings are largely involuntary, and not something you’ve done wrong. What we can control though is how we handle those feelings, and what actions we choose to take.

All the best, and take care, Anon.
