#maybe its the aromantism kicking in

[justa-moth]

fish n chips to me is like,,,,, an enigma. not purely romantic, not purely platonic, not purely queer platonic, just,,,, ✨

literally no other way i can describe it jsgdjsgdjsvs

they have a relationship thats on such an ethereal level that it cannot be comprehended by the human mind. they simply exist together to spite everyone around them.

they change what they refer to each other as constantly. people become excessively more and more confused the more this goes on. one day its boyfriends, next its husbands, next its friends, next its co-captains, next its co-bastards. their relationship is a question to everyone including themselves.

[zedleaked]

I have a couple of things

One, I love your art style! It's so cute and scrunkly, I hold it in my hands gently,,, /pos

Two, if this is okay to ask, what is your opinion on gokumota? They're my favorite ship, so I'm curious about what you think about it! :o

I THINK THEY ARE LOVELY.... himbo 4 himbo fr....

they are both scientists that are often perceived as dumb by their classmates... methinks they would bond over talking about bugs and space respectively...

from what little I remember from Kaito's free time events I remember the stories he told were a bit off the walls but I think Gonta would love listening to them,,,! Maybe use them as an inspiration too!! -and in turn Kaito listens to Gonta's rambles about becoming a gentleman and encouraging him,, Kaito is like Gonta's hype man in a way...

also when I think they'd do a lot of stargazing and whatever together,, especially cause in-game Gonta tends to point out the stars a lot,, like,,, Kaito tells him about all the constellations and shows them to him,, and the next time they go outside at night together Gonta tries to look for them!!!

plus... Purple and Green... best colour combo of all time.

my brain is flip flopping between viewing them as besties or romantically involved [probably the aromantic in me kicking in] but either way I think they are wonderful...

gives me the same feelings as Cats & Piranhas [Ryoma & Himiko friendship] cause they're both similar [Gonta and Kaito being optimistic scientists who are viewed as idiots sometimes,, and Ryoma and Himiko being both tiny and had important people leave their lives,,, and they probably have undiagnosed depression...] but not really having much significant interactions... sobs...

I have not thought about this ship [or even their friendship] before but looking more into it,,, its actually so cute and silly,, you have opened my eyes,,

i saw a post where someone described forced marriage as an example of the oppression of asexuals/aromantics and it's like.. . . no. it's an example of the oppression of WOMEN first and foremost.

It's interesting. I'm not going to tell people what to call themselves, but for the record, I am an ace truther you might say. I don't believe that 99.9% of the people identifying as such are asexual/aromantic--given how many complex and ever finer-grained micro-identities they've cooked up to explain how and why they do experience and enjoy sex and romance. Obviously I'm not going to kick down anyone's door and make them give the label back, but I'm providing that context for my interpretations.

The general critiques given for society--too focused on romantic relationships, undervaluing platonic ones, overemphasizing sex, and then, like in your example, the material criticisms, forced marriage, etc.--are worthwhile critiques. They're aspects of culture that have negative impacts for many people. But at the same time as "aphobia" seems to be doing political analysis, it's doing so with its eyes averted from the basis of all of these cultural elements, which is misogyny, the oppression of women. Society is designed to funnel women into heterosexual romantic/sexual partnership in order to keep the means of human reproduction under male control. Period. Rather than address the baseline motive, each element is decontextualized.

What's striking to me at least is how effective an "ace movement" could actually be in criticizing this structure. When Christianity first began to pick up converts in the Roman empire, there was a moral panic because men and especially women were removing themselves from the chain of reproduction by living chastely in anticipation of Christ's return. That's an aspect of the movement that died rapidly, since Jesus didn't come back and they had to make the next generation of Christians pronto. But the panic it produced spoke to the effectiveness of its criticism. Women were declining their social role. They were in some times/places believed to have spiritual equality with men (per Paul). There's evidence of women leaders in the early church. For a brief window of time this action seemed to facilitate an upheaval of the social order, at least within the context of the church.

But asexuality as it stands right now is, like many other identity groups, atomized in a way that it makes a bunch of little individual criticisms of society and culture, but not to a degree that it has meaningful effect. It's not about organizing, it seems, it's not about really doing anything. Because "asexuality" is framed as an internal ontological difference from other people, with a myriad of different possible definitions via micro-identities, there's no governing ideology except to ask for--what else, in this individualistic world? The right to do what one wants as an individual and not be bothered for it. Not organize around the wage gap or rent gouging or other barriers to comfortably living alone, et cetera.

It's kind of a band-aid on the larger social issues. Rather than look at the reality of oppression, it's easier to break down the, ummm, the wooden floor into individual planks and scrutinize each plank for its flaws and say that that's why your feet hurt when you walk on it. Well maybe it's actually the fucked up foundation, not the wooden floor, and you have to address the underlying cause. This is a dumb metaphor, but you get me.

Since I've seen a lot of people do it, here's my sexuality, gender, and gender presentation headcanons for the Voices and Vessels:

Voices

Hero: Bisexual, he/him, cis but is probably a little bit gnc---he's trying on earrings, he's started to paint his nails and wear makeup, maybe he'll buy a skirt soon. He seems like a guy who's only recently come out of the closet and is a bit nervous about doing things right.

Contrarian: Gay, he/they, demiboy and hella gnc... in the sense that none of their outfits make any cohesive sense, and are an absolute mess of patterns and styles. His little-shit energy extends to his gender expression.

Cheated: Pansexual, he/him, trans. He's a simple jeans-and-t-shirts kinda guy, though I think he'd also wear leather jackets purely for the extra protection.

Stubborn: Gay, he/him, cis. Maybe "bear" isn't quite the right word, but he definitely comes from the Elliot Spencer school of masculinity. Big buff guy with long hair who can and will kick the shit out of you but is also a protective soul.

Broken: Bisexual, he/him... questioning his gender, but he doesn't focus much on it. He's in the "I only wear sweatpants and hoodies because I have no energy to do anything else" stage.

Cold: Gay, he/him, definitely genderqueer and only really uses "he" because it's easier. Google "mall goth" and you get a picture of him.

Paranoid: Aroace, he/they, trans. He's always dressed weirdly nice for the occasion, though it's mostly so he can stim with a tie or cuff links. They're a fancy little dude.

Opportunist: Pansexual, they/them, non-binary. They're a little more alternative-leaning---toeing the line of being punk while not actually committing hard enough to it---but they do lean into the masc side of things more often than not. It's the only reason why they wear a pronoun pin.

Hunted: Queer, he/it, unlabeled. He has better things to do than worry about his gender or sexuality. It just wears whatever it finds in its closet on any given day.

Skeptic: Biromantic demisexual, he/him, cis. He dresses like a noir detective---button-up shirt, suspenders, slacks, maybe a trenchcoat when it's not too hot out. Also, he absolutely wears glasses.

Smitten: Pansexual, they/them, non-binary but only recently out. They always dress like they're on their way to a Ren Faire, and they like to mix up femme and masc styles. Always with a prop sword, though.

Vessels

Damsel: Bisexual, she/her, cis. She absolutely dresses in a fairytale-dream style---puffy, flowing dresses, flower crowns, ect.

Prisoner: Panromantic demisexual, she/her, cis. I picture her with a more academic style, either in pantsuits or just fancy blazers with a comfortable skirt. She wears glasses, too.

Nightmare: Aromantic bisexual, she/her, cis. The gothiest goth to ever goth. She scares children and grown adults with her creepy makeup.

Spectre: Queer, she/her, trans. She's also goth, but more of a whimsigoth type, and I think she's also got a lot of general witchy vibes to her. Also, I always picture her with dyed lavender hair for some reason.

Beast: Queer, she/it, unlabeled. Again, better things to do than figure out what the hell her sexuality and gender is. It's a cat and it's here to either eat, sleep, or play with its food.

Witch: Lesbian, she/they, demigirl. Weirdly enough, I kind of picture her having my own personal style---lots of flannels, graphic tees, jeans and converse. Maybe there's a little bit of whimsy in there when she wants to make an effort, but usually not.

Tower: Pansexual, she/her, cis. Depending on what genre she's in, she either dresses like a badass lady knight or a high-powered exec. General girlboss vibes.

Adversary: Lesbian, she/her, cis. Hardcore butch. In every way possible.

Razor: Lesbian, she/her, trans. Because I can't resist the pun, she's a total metalhead---lots of chains, lots of studded clothing, lots of piercings, lots of buckles, the whole nine yards. Yes, you can stick magnets to her.

Stranger: Queer, any and all but prefers they/them, genderfluid and intersex. I like to think that they have different "fashion modes" depending on how they feel on different days---sweatpants and a hoodie for when they're feeling down, an alternative vibe for when they want to feel scary, a masculine vibe for when they want to feel confident, a feminine vibe for when they want to feel pretty, and a crazy-patterns-all-rainbow vibe for when they just want to be weird. They're fun.

Malevolent Part 43 "The Witch" thoughts

Notes made as I listen to the episode.

Oh hearing John say "I am the king in yellow"!

Not a fragment of the king in yellow. Just the king in yellow.

Giggling and kicking my feet right now. I know John thinks it suits his agenda right now to say "who he truely is" but it still makes me smile like an idiot.

And its very aromantic of me to say this but noone can ever make me feel what these fictional little men/entities in my favourite horror podcast are making me feel.

Go little fictional man/entity! GO!

"who?" YES! Fuck his ego up! FUCK HIM UP!!!!

Man, I love people using the power of titles, just to be met with indifference. That's my shit.

Wow John is easy to break. Good to know.

I love the witch. She's disgusting and terrible but she's a ✨️ Girlboss ✨️

"You care for [him]. Tell me Yorick!"

"He most definitely does, my queen"

"GODDAMMIT!"

"I connected with him....THAT ALONE WASN'T ENOUGH TO MAKE ME QUESTION WHO I AM!" honey...baby...John, darling....You didn't even know who you were, my sweet child. Also isn't that a bit too defensive? A liiiittle over the top, don't you think?

The nurse again. Talk more about her, John. I need to confirm something.

When John starts talking about the nurse but doesn't say anything to confirm or deny my Lillith theory:

Damn the witch has been through some shit. Give her a break. She deserves to cause a little suffering. Maybe just not to Arthur? Maaaaybe someone who has suffered less? So also not John.

Honestly the conversation with the witch is just a whole weird therapy session for John and the witch. Its likely noone will emerge from this better than before but it's definitely some weird therapy.

New info on the dark world? Nice. John had a little snackie? Uhoh, did the king in yellow fall to gluttony? How very human of you, Johnny boy.

Oh? Kayne is more powerful than you, John? Are you sure? Are you really sure on that?

Yorick, after saying nothing for a while: "I remember you, my king!" He just doesnt care at all, he's licking the dirty shoes of whoever holds any power. Disgusting. Free. Unbothered by morals or pride. He's worthless, he's my everything, he disgusts me and I love him. I'm ashamed for him and I am proud of him.

Hehehe, yes John, admit you lied. I'm sure Arthur isn't listening at all and is just unconscious. (He probably actually is. Would work better for the narrative.)

I love how John says "Fuck you". I wish my "fuck you" sounded like that. My gender? Oh its fucking the king in yellow from the hit horror podcast Malevolent.

More witch therapy for John. Good for him, good for him. He's getting fucked up real bad.

Noooo please witch, don't manipulate my emotional comfort entity into abandoning his humanity. (DO IT!)

HIS LOVE FOR ARTHUR SAVED HIM!!!!

"Do you miss being the king?" That's not an easy question to answ....oh. Oh John, honey that was not the right answer. You shouldn't have said that. I bet she's going to...jup. Jup she's stabbing him.

The witch:

John, manifesting:

LMAO, I told you she's a girlboss! Get him! Humble him! Make him believe that he needs to gain power and make him make Arthur his domain. Make a guy your domain John!!!! The witch controls her domain fully and is stronger within than an old one. I wonder what would happen if an old one (the king in yellow aka John) made Arthur his domain.

"Orthur :(" yeah you're still alive even with Arthur dead. Now untangle that complicated ball of feelings John.

Witch, that's a stupid question and stupid things to say about hope and all that. John did change. If he didn't, you'd be dead.

John is a bad liar. Luckily the witch rolled a shitty insight check.

Monologue time!

Bet reviving Arthur won't work because he's human.

Oh damn I was wrong, maybe? Well, there have to be complications then. I wonder what the complications are. I love complications. :)

🌀 and ☔️ back at you!

🌀Post the fic summary for a fic you haven't written/published yet. It can be hypothetical or something you really plan on releasing

I have decided to cheat! Here is a snippet from a fic that's so far away from being written it'll likely never see the sun, but it lives in my head.

From the Roy-Jamie-Keeley qpr where Keeley is poly and Jamie is aromantic and Roy has a lot of things bookmarked on his laptop:

Roy repeated, "The bar. It's on the floor." Jamie looked more confused. He shook his head, almost frantic with it now as the metaphors kept rolling out. "Look, I know it's a lot, but I was hoping maybe we could start there. Maybe. It's fine if we can't, I can move it if it's a problem. But just -- don't kick the bar. A lot of people kick it on accident, and some of them kick it on purpose because they don't think its fair that it should be there at all. So. Yeah. Don't. Don't do that." Help him if he ever met whichever teacher had taught Jamie metaphors in school. Roy said, "I love this bar." "What?" "Yeah. I love this bar. This is my favorite bar. I think it looks perfect where it is. In fact, I think we should redecorate the whole room around the bar. For feng shui and shit, so everything flows right. And we should make sure it has space, so if the bar ever wants to move -- wants to go higher or lower or just wants to sit out on the patio for a bit -- it can do that without ever being worried that someone is going to kick the fucking bar."

☔Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?

And here's a snippet from the Ted Lasso Leverage AU that I'm definitely not writing anytime soon (trigger warning for threats of gun violence, descriptions of regular violence, James Tartt Sr, etc, all below the cut for safe keeping):

"Or what, Junior?" he asked derisively, prodding Jamie's head with the gun. Roy's heart kicked in his chest. James still had the the finger on the trigger. He did it again, knocking the loaded barrel against Jamie's head as if he were using his hand to push him around. Everybody had a limit. Roy's was approaching with a speed that tunneled his sight down to the vision of breaking every bone in that hand. One by one. If he grit his teeth any harder, they were going to pop out of his skull. "Quit waving that thing around," he growled. Behind his back, the razor sawed away at the ropes, slipping in his grasp. Probably nicked himself. He couldn't feel it. James Tartt reeled back from his son with a mocking grin. Partially obscured behind the clot of his father, Jamie slumped against his ropes. "Oh, what, you mean like this? Huh?" He tapped the gun against Jamie's head, laughing dryly when Jamie flinched back. The gun went tap-tap-tap, each strike chipping the color out of Jamie's cheeks until he sat there, his expression gone flat and lifeless with bland disinterest as the the gunsight caught in his hair. Forget bones, Roy was going to kill him. Then he was going to pry each bone out of his lifeless hand and shove them down his throat.

Is it common for DC characters to be members of the Avengers of for Marvel characters to be members of the Justice League in the BronzeRealms?

It's not common, no. But it has happened from time to time. The Marvel/DC distinction obviously doesn't exist in-universe, but there is a cultural divide and methodological beef between the Justice League and Avengers that has led to a lot of heroes feeling like they should "pick a side" even if they're not on either team. But no-one's getting bullied for who they do team-ups with either (at least, not much).

Let's give a few examples. I mentioned in another post that Huntress was kicked out of the Justice League for a time because she started killing again. During that time, she briefly joined the Avengers. However, she made one horrible mistake, and hooked up with Tony Stark. She had to leave before too long.

You can flirt with Tony Stark. Everyone flirts with Tony Stark! At this point he's used to being told a flat "never", just once, taking it on the chin, and still being able to sass a little afterwards. But if he actually thinks it's GOING somewhere!?! If one time out of twenty he can actually get a Yes from someone?! Doomed. Constant, insufferable torrential flirting as he pushes that Skinner Box button "sex please?" over and over waiting for the treat.

Next example. She-Hulk had a substantial, successful stint on the Justice League Dark. Nothing bad happened. She could easily jump in with them again. She gets along with half the team better than they get along with half of each other. She just has a lot else going on!

Damian Wayne and Kamala Khan are good friends and have teamed up a good handful of times. They're around the same age (Kamala a year or so older), both based in Jersey, and just... terrifyingly formidable. They dated, for a little bit, but then Kamala helped Damian accept that he's Aromantic and there's nothing wrong with that, and him not being interested in relationships isn't a sign of being socially stunted from his assassin upbringing and he shouldn't force himself through the motions of it.

Kitty Pryde joined the Birds of Prey for a little bit too. She was crushing on Barbara p. hard... And then she realized basically half the team have crushes on Barbara, and decided that wasn't healthy, so she quit the "waiting for Oracle to stop being a useless bisexual and realize she has a harem waiting" support group, and bounced out of Gotham altogether to just move on with her life.

Red Tornado was part of the original Defenders (Doctor Strange, Namor, Hulk, Silver Surfer, Valkyrie) for a time, but not very long (then again, not that much shorter than the normal tenure with that version of the team).

The Xenomorph survivor named Kara who Superman rescued from a dome city called The Rock in events-generally-similar-to the excellent comic "Superman Vs Aliens"... She isn't Supergirl, but she does exist, and she joined the Guardians of the Galaxy.

I was focusing on the hero teams for this post but the biggest examples of Marvel and DC characters being on teams together is on the villain teams. Especially Cadmus, but that really deserves its own whole post, so for now I'll leave things here.

I'll probably come up with more hero examples later, too, and maybe people here can suggest a few of their own!

EDIT:

Okay Azrael BELONGS on the Midnight Sons.

[conspicuous-clown-car]

Could you share some info about your fnaf self insert? They seem pretty cool :]

OOOOOOOOH BOY ARE YOU ASKING FOR AN INFO DUMP ?BECAUSE YOU ARE ABOUT TO GET AN INFO DUMP!!!!

first off, my self insert is basically just me, but some stuff is drastically different, and more of like, where i was 5 years ago mentally, so keep that in mind lol

sooo basics: their name is Kris Tycho, they're in their early 20s, they're 4'10, they're mexican, nonbinary, and aromantic

they are just a little guy who likes silly colorful fun things, as seen from the lil googly eye ring on their hand, the way they dress, and the fact that they might be the only person who wasn't scared of the dca when first meeting! they're also a fan of slightly unsettling and weird/misunderstood things, so, perfect match!

they are autistic and have adhd (like me!) so they tend to swing from being highly alert and focused to brain foggy and oblivious to what's going on around them. they do have bad sensory issues, mainly with sound and lights, which is why they decided to work night shift at the pizzaplex. also because they're reeeaallly socially awkward and get too stressed and exhausted working in customer service

they have a monotonous way of speaking, and can be taken too seriously due to having a resting bitch face, which tends to intimidate people. they're also a huge introvert, and don't make friends easily, which is partially due to how off-putting people find them. but! when they get comfortable with someone they're able to unmask and be overly expressive.

they also aren't exactly the most professional person, so people (vanessa) can be bothered by how casual they are at work (because they literally do not have the energy to act serious when its unnecessary). vanessa, exasperated by the animatronic shenanigans one night says "fuck robots" kris jokingly says "im trying" and vanessa is just like shut the fuck up. seriously.

they have spotify playlists of all the animatronics! (sun and moons have the most songs teehee)

is more than okay with the animatronics carrying them and being overly touchy. anyone else? immediately on their shit list

they're really good at sewing, and have fixed sun and moons clothes when management ignored their requests to repair them.

their favorite animatronic from the main band is glam chica (dont tell roxy)

their favorite movie is wall-e :] (they've always had a thing for robots)

their relationship with the dca kinda blurs the lines between platonic and....other, lol. they're unable to feel romantic feelings for them but they still do stuff like kiss and cuddle maybe other stuff too, but they basically act like besties and are each others comfort person. fuck labels! >:D

their entire thought process when deciding to work at the pizzaplex was, "i'll either work here long enough to pay off my student loans, or ill die. win win situation" (yikes, the pay there isn't even that good)

they're also huge fan of fazbear ent. because of all the rumors surrounding it, and because they were obsessed with the games when they were younger (which are canonically real in the fnaf universe). they are very aware of the alleged murders surrounding faz ent. and the very real danger of working at their establishments. but they're curious! sue them!

the reason vanessa and them are the only human workers in the entire building is because there needs to be at least 2 (human) people in an establishment during work hours (my source is i used to work at chuck e cheese, and that's my reference for the majority of these kinds of things)

their job title is security guard, but vanessa regularly gives them random tasks, things that staff bots aren't programmed or are unable to do, or things that dayshift workers forgot to do before closing. because between her, the staff bots, and moon, kris isn't exactly necessary when it comes to security.

kris doesn't meet the daycare attendant until like a month into their job, and when they do meet sun they immediately get kicked out of the daycare for not being a child lol. after going down the slide enough times to irritate sun he gives in, and they get to know each other. they spend at least an hour hanging out with sun each shift, and they even hang out outside of the daycare when they get too busy to visit!

moon has been stalking them the entire time though, when the lights go off every hour. they officially meet when kris has to do monthly maintenance on them and the lights go out while they're working. moon scares them by threatening and manhandling them, but they don't try to run. both because they're curious and because their flight or fight is just freeze. but after recovering from the shock the autism makes them go "holy shit your design is so cool how did your pants change color where did your hat come from?" and moon is completely silent, then he just laughs and leaves without letting kris finish maintenence.

ummm okay so they're actually a bit more willing to die than how i previously made it seem, their plan was essentially to try to explore as much of the pizzaplex as they can out of curiosity and if they die they die (they are not mentally well) so when they meet moon and he's slightly violent and grabby with them, they're like !!! an opportunity! so for selfish reasons (and because they vibe with the celestial jester theme), they try to get closer to moon. (secret reason: they like getting scared)

In this story there is no virus, its just vanny/vanessa being able to control the animatronics, but due to that they've become very anxious and stressed. this is why chica starts to overeat, why monty starts to have anger issues, why moon starts to act scary towards the children, and why sun starts to become an anxious mess.

at first kris didn't think the animatronics were sentient, and they were perfectly fine with the thought of possibly dying to one of them. but when they realized just how sentient they were (due to spending a lot of time around sun and moon), and how the animatronics were aware of what happened at previous locations, they felt sooo incredibly guilty.

despite not thinking the animatronics were sentient they still treated them like people, partly due to their autism that made them personify inanimate objects, but also because in their mind it was 'fun to act like they were real'. like an adult going to Disneyland and getting so lost in the magic that they forget the characters are just actors.

and... i don't want to spoil too much of the story yet teehee so ill end it there

thank u for letting me ramble! even though i kinda went overboard lol :]

[hoshi-y]

Hi hii <33

I'm here again >:D, anywayy I'd firstly like to thank you for writing for my requests. I hope you're doing well, and please do take care of yourself!

Also, I'd like to request Teru (my aromantic ass only likes him in a romantic?/simp way) with an s/o who seems to be a perfect student and all in school and literally has a clean reputation( kinda a people pleaser?). Like Teru thinks they won't do anything wrong BUT they actually know quite a few martial arts and enjoy sparring/ fighting. Maybe someone like Ty Lee from Atla (Avatar the last airbender), like they are quite acrobatic and can chi block (yk how she can stop a user from bending and can even immobilize limbs like how she does to Sokka). Overall they are just badass and can kick ass, but no one expects it (they hide it quite well).

Anyway my request is long as always. You are always free to decline but I'd really appreciate it if you do write for me again.

Love youu

Thank you!

Expect lower, President.

Genre : Fluff

Characters : Minamoto Teru

TW : None

A/N : AAAAAA So sorry it took so long 😞 😞 ITS ALMOST MY LAST DAYS OF SCHOOL TEACHERS STACKING OUR WORKS AS USUAL, and ofcourse I'd love to do your request 😋 they are very interesting, I dunno how to write fighting scenes but I'll see what I can do hehe

I hope you enjoy 💗

I'm... At a lost for words.

[F/N] [L/N].

The name that everyone at school knows about, of course they'd know, you're the secretary of Kamome after all. But outside you being the Student Council Secretary, everyone respects you. They loved your welcoming vibes and great personality.

Students praise you for your nice personality, Teachers absolutely loved you too. You were always participating in class, get high marks, never got into trouble at all, not only that, you join events and bring home 1st places for the school.

Everyone absolutely LOVED you.

Especially the schools prince and Student Council President. Minamoto Teru

You were absolutely GORGEOUS, despite that he loved talking to you as you had many topics to talk about to him, he gets so mesmerized with your voice he sometimes forgets what you two are talking about.

The way your eyes shine from morning, afternoon, to night. Oh how he wanted to drown in those [E/C] eyes. Your smile, your personality, your nice aura.

God, he is inlove with you what else is there to say? Eventually. He confessed to you and courted you for a month, and you finally said yes and became a couple for 3 months now.

He couldn't be any happier, he thought he knew alot about you by now, like your full name, birth date, parents, favorite food, favorite drink, etc.

Well, that's what he thought.

Teru was informed that delinquents frequently trespass into the school in the afternoon where no people are around anymore to graffiti or mess up the classrooms. The school has called the police on them a bunch of times already yet they couldn't catch them.

"Of course they couldn't catch them.. They take absolutely way to long to get here..." Teru mumbled as he quickened his pace to where they usually break in and hang out.

Once he got to the spot, he heard alot of commotion, things being thrown and alot of shouting. Sounds like they were fighting, or fighting someone in there.

He feared that they may have abducted a student and threatened them to do whatever they want. So he rushed to open the door and saw—

You.

He saw how you absolutely kicked their asses, and apprehended them tying their hands down. He saw a side of you that absolutely shocked and surprised him

You felt someone watching as you looked up, tensing when you saw your boyfriends face.

"T-Teru.." You stuttered, you backed away from tying up the unconscious delinquents when you saw how Teru furrowed his eyesbrows walking up to them.

Standing close to the wall, panicking. You were thinking that he may think of you differently now after this incident.

'What if he leaves me.. What if he tells everyone that I am.. Capable of such a thing.. I can't let anyone know about this..' You panicked. You felt a hand on you shoulder as you looked up

"Teru.. P-please I can explain!—" Teru pulled you into a tight hug, as you clumsily returned it. "Teru?.."

"I'm.. Glad that nothing happened to you.. I was so worried when I saw you fighting them.." He hugged you tighter kissing your head. "[F/N].. Dear.. When have you.. learned to do this?.."

Your eyes slowly darted down to your shoes. "I was picked on alot back then, and I hated it. I begged my parents to enroll me in taekwondo or karate, martial arts. Just to defend myself, I planned on telling you that I was capable of doing this back then.. But you had such an.. Adoring image of me.. So I kept it to myself.. I never told anyone. All of you had one idea of me.. "

You looked up at him tears swelled up in your eyes. "All of you only knew me as the Perfect, Straight A Council Student who couldn't possibly be capable of something like this.." Teru hugged you tight. "I never knew.. I was too ignorant.."

After Teru and You dragged all the delinquents out, he immediately called the police and staffs to handle this situation

"I've been having a hard time learning martial arts lately" He spoked as you listened while eating your ice cream. He smiled looking at you

"Be my Sensei and teach me hm?" He gave you one of his signature smiles that absolutely clenched your heart

"T-teru.. You're making it hard for me to say no.."

"haha~"

Keishin 100% dude, arguing and then realizing feelings then confessing mid argue? So keishin vibes

45 and 46 :p

HI AGAIN ANON SO it’s been a few days (so sorry about that btw.) And i have. Possibly the funniest news. i was thinking really hard about your ask and how to approach it because i tend to sort of…draft scenarios in my head before actually answering my asks? and i was like. hmmmmmm idk why im having such a tough time with this! i feel like no matter what i do it ends up feeling forced! and i genuinely DONT know how to tell you this but I THINK YOUR ASK MADE ME REALIZE YTR SHIN IS AROMANTIC????? LIKE I. I GENUINELY DONT KNOW WHAT TO SAY. THIS WASNT INTENTIONAL. I JUST REALIZED IT.

like ok i know im the creator of this au and i can do whatever with the characters. but sometimes i feel like the characters are actually doing whatever they want to and im like a haggard reporter chasing after them trying to figure out what’s going on.

that said i still really wanted to answer this ask because i think it’s interesting and also because ive already put you through the ringer with the light mode debacle (😭) so its still keiji and shin but a more…platonic take on these prompts?? I HOPE THATS OKAY AUUUAUAUAU;;;

anyways just to offer you a bit of background: keiji and shin are a super interesting duo in ytr to me! keiji takes hinako’s spot, meaning he’s a human who tries to blend in with the dummies. if shin lives, he actually gets paired up with him (i know that doesnt actually fit the role swap but i wanted to anyways because they are the parallel characters of all time to me). i definitely see their relationship starting off with mutual suspicion, with shin being suspicious of keiji’s behaviors (what with him secretly being a double-agent for asunaro n all here <.<) and keiji being suspicious of shin kind of splitting off from the rest of the group. yet, i also see this evolving into a sort of mutual intrigue— they’re both invested in trying to Detective each other out and figure out What This Guy’s Deal Is.

a moment for 45-46 would, to me, definitely take place after it’s revealed that the dummies’ goal is to kill their partners. if shin already didn’t trust keiji, he would certainly not after knowing this info (i mean, come on, mr. 0.0% over here…). and i can TOTALLY see them getting into an argument over that, since a conflict of interests would be born from keiji wanting to keep an eye on shin while shin just wants to be Left The Hell Alone.

i think keiji would make the argument that if shin was really so worried about being targeted, why doesn’t he just make the first move to take out keiji? to which shin would be like are you stupid? then ryoko and everyone else would want me dead. to which keiji would point out…buddy….they kind of already do. he can Sense the antagonism in the air just from how ryoko and shin interact.

he then takes it a step further to observe that shin cant trust anyone, but he doesnt have it in him to betray anyone either. shin would actually be caught off guard at this, but also be like “bitch you too” and say that keiji also hasn’t trusted anyone, hasn’t revealed practically anything about himself.

i think this is where the “realization” part kicks in. shin desperately DOES want to trust others, in this case he even *does* like keiji, but he’s so terrified of letting anyone in (ESPECIALLY after the 2nd main game) when it’s so much easier to push people away.

i think…they’d be able to be a bit candid here. realizing that they’re at a bit of an impasse, i think keiji would be the first to open up a little about Why he acts this way (more of the traumatic past stuff, less of the asunaro stuff for. obvious reasons 💀) and shin would mutually confess how he felt about the death game and that he wants to trust keiji but just feels like he can’t.

the real fun (tragic) part is that i think after having a conversation like this shin would feel hopeful!!!! that maybe even in this awful environment he could find someone he might be able to call a friend(????!!!!) but of course that’s cut short because keiji dies in the banquet 💥💥💥 hence why this is the Worst time for him to realize he actually doesn’t think this guy is half bad. sorry i love making shin suffer </3

ok yeah i. i know this isnt really keishin. sorry anon </3 but shin aro icon remains true and real in my heart forever

Amy one day approaches Sonic, shy and kicking the dirt a little bit. She seems embarrassed about something, and he's a friend, so he stops and asks her "Hey, Ames, y'alright?" She scuffs her boot and hems and haws for a bit.

"I- uhm.." she starts. Sonic is invested now. Amy is never this shy about anything. "I think I'm aromantic..." She whispers, hushed like it's some terrible secret.

It takes a minute for Sonic to remember what certain terms mean, because he doesn't really care about labels but learned them from his friends anyways. In the silence Amy is hunching in on herself even further, guilt crushing her for all the trouble she caused. She expects anger. She had bothered him for years, unrelentingly, all just to discover she didn't actually mean any of it?

Yelling would make sense. She wouldn't blame him.

When Amy has a chance to glance up, though, she sees a smile stretching across Sonic's face. It's so startling she almost jumps backwards! He rushes forward and hoists her into the air, spinning her around like she's seen him do to Tails. It brightens her mood exponentially, and she's laughing, nervous energy dissipating with every twirl. Sonic sets her down after a minute and steps back, hands falling behind his head.

"I'm proud of you!" He says, leaning back easily, "Takes a lotta guts to figure that out."

Amy thinks he probably says that only to make her feel better, but she does have to admit that it works. A moment passes and she deflates a little and rubs her arm, thoughts catching up to her.

"Still," she starts, looking away, "I'm really, really, sor-" Sonic holds up a hand to interrupt her. He shrugs the apology off easily.

"Don't worry about it. Welcome to the club!" He says, holding out his fist. Amy bumps it with her own, feeling lighter now than she had in years. Maybe just as long as she could remember. A smile works its way onto her face, warm and genuine.

"Thanks," She says. Her voice is honest and relieved, "Glad to be here."

may as well throw a few into the ring:

The Goblin Emperor (Katharine Addison) - this little dude is the unwanted half-goblin bastard son of the emperor and has been stashed very "out of sight out of mind" with an asshole for a caretaker pretty much all his life. his shit dad and the three legitimate heirboys to the throne all unexpectedly kick it, leaving the court aghast to discover oh no, the embarrassing half-goblin bastard is the freaking EMPEROR now? he's just a kiddo with a shitload of anxiety and trauma who is socially awkward and now has to rule an entire empire while a lot of people try to manipulate, bully, use, and backstab him. fortunately, there are some not-shit folks around too while he figures himself out, learns to stand tall (he a literal short king tho), investigates his estranged family's murders, deals with politics, and maybe realizes he's been a worthy person all along and can be a good ruler to his people.

Sunshine (Robin McKinley) - vampires! alternate world not unlike our own, and our family-bakery protagonist gets herself caught up with vampires (mostly truly horrible and ghastly and gross) and magical-governing agencies when she just wants to bake her cinnamon-rolls-as-big-as-your-head and try a new chocolate cupcake recipe. family secrets drama, hidden magic drama, romantic drama with a really lovely and chill boyfriend but also a bizarre and not-as-gross vampire. neil gaiman endorsed this one when it was new, if that tells you about the kind of weird, dark, and very rich atmosphere it has.

Villains duology (Vicious and Vengeful) (V E Schwab) - the bad guys are kind of the good guys, but not in a leverage way because they're definitely bad guys and damn is victor vale an asshole. eli ever is just a much bigger, worse, more sanctimonious asshole who styles his serial killings as heroic. (bizarre ex-bffs but shit went bad between them in college and really spiraled from there.) superpowers, ace protagonist, homoerotic tension, absolute bastards, more found family than you can shake a stick at, action and clever plotting abound. listen to "put it on me" by matt maeson for a preview of The Vibes.

The Murderbot Diaries (Martha Wells) - the mortifying ordeal of being known, triple aaa style (agender, asexual, aromantic.) murderbot just wants to watch its favorite shows and not be perceived, but unfortunately it's really good at helping people, mostly because it stumbled onto some unexpectedly decent ones it kinda would prefer alive, and humans are so damn bad at doing their own security it's downright embarrassing. our hero is a robot-human construct trapped in a capitalist hellscape in far-future space and solves mysteries, is hilarious (inside its own head mostly), kicks a lot of ass, and very reluctantly explores what this whole autonomous personhood deal is about while trying to deal with trauma and depression without actually having to admit it.

The Sixth World duology (Rebecca Roanhorse) - indigenous amercian myth and magic in a post-apocalyptic urban fantasy series in which most of the world is underwater now and our heroine deals with magic, murder, making friends and also enemies, and some gods who are definitely not to be trusted. there is romance and it matters, but the plot and worldbuilding rides lead.

Magic for Liars (Sarah Gailey) - the unspecial twin watched her sister turn out to be a magical teen superstar, go away to magical adventure school, and grow up to be famous and beloved and teach at her alma mater. the sisters grew apart until they became estranged adults, with the unspecial sister becoming a depressed private investigator--who is now being hired to investigate a murder at her sister's magical school. family tension, mystery, flawed characters muddling through their messy selves and lives, some romance, and lively worldbuilding. for the ones who loved things like harry potter but grew up to see where it tarnishes.

Fourth Wing (Rebecca Yarros) - the younger daughter of this fantasy country's intimidating general is forced into the dragon-riding side of the military's academy by aforementioned mother, despite that she is small, a little prone to being sickly, and has a disability that will make things much harder on her in this grueling setting where most of the students don't survive the first year. she thrives unexpectedly by utilizing her own strengths, refusing to twist into the sort of vicious shapes she's told are her best chance of survival, makes diehard friends, and navigates an alarming amount of tension of many kinds with the most badass young man at the academy--who happens to hate her because her mother killed his father for leading a rebellion. dragons and magic and action and politics and character development, oh my. more than a little romance, done well, and several queer characters.

The Stand-In (Lily Chu) - freshly fired by an extremely shitty boss, our canadian lady lead gets caught up in a whirlwind of shenanigans when a world-famous chinese actress she just so happens to look a lot like (like... a lot like) ropes her into being her double because she just has too damn many things on her plate and she's dealing with some shit. the money is good, the starlet's boyfriend is hot, if unfortunately a jerk who actively distrusts her, and this will be just what she needs to figure out what to do with her life now that her former career is over. what could go wrong? no one will ever realize she's someone else entirely, and there's obviously no danger of getting involved with the boyfriend when he's so suspicious of her and unfriendly... right? at least the starlet is nice! maybe they'll even become friends.

The City Between series ( W R Gingell) - our australian protagonist has been squatting long-term in the house her parents were brutally murdered in as a child and is dead-set on never leaving. this becomes rather challenging when a gruesome and bizarre murder occurs across the street and three highly suspicious dudes who seem not-exactly-human buy the house she's been living in all this time. turns out they are in fact not human at all, and when they discover her, she can either die, or get mindwiped and kicked out... or talk them into taking her on as their sunshine-perky human pet who happens to be a great cook and make excellent tea. there's a lot more to the world than Pet ever realized (actual layers, in fact), and she seems to be weirdly good at navigating it, which complicates the three dudes' murder investigation which crosses into magic, elven royal politics, werewolves, ghosts, and zombies, not to mention the vampire who refuses to speak anything but his native korean living in her house and pestering the daylights out of her. and the deeper she gets into all this, the more Pet starts to think it all connects back to her own parents' deaths. there's a great deal of complex urban fantasy worldbuilding, found family, fascinating magic systems, humor, friendship, mystery--and rather more action than you might expect, some of it rather brutal. this series is a helluva ride.

Hench (Natalie Zina Walschots) - our heroine (lol) here is a temp/floating henchperson for the local villainous community. it's not ideology, she's just trying to keep rent paid and have food around semi-regularly. a pretty routine temp assignment goes horribly wrong when it puts her on the wrong end of a superhero/villain showdown, leaving her with a permanent injury and a growing fury over the massive collateral damage the so-called heroes do to property and bystanders alike. the power of grudge-driven spreadsheets gets her recruited by the most terrifying villain alive, who happens to be the best boss she's ever had, and a new and dangerous purpose. she might actually save the world a little, though.

listen I ended up regretting saying anything about this on my old blog because people will interpret literally any and every statement maliciously on this hellsite but I want to start like. a helpline for people who are like “hey I pretty much only read YA but I’m like 22 now and don’t relate to teenagers as much, it’s such a shame that there are no fun books written for adults :(” because boy HOWDY are there some fun books for adults 

[eternalvoidsystem]

we need some more system organization again. i guess when things got bad with our ex we went into survival mode and its hard getting out of that state again. something about someone who became your life, leaving is devastating. i tell myself it was nothing but it was something. it was sad, heartbreaking, but i dont know. like most things, i can’t feel much about it yet i know it effected me substantially.

i don’t trust people now. fully, zero trust. my lying problems have gotten worse. when i was with them i was the most honest i have ever been. i was honest about things i didn’t know and did know, which i have never done before. i didn’t bullshit about things like i do now and did before them. my already bad trust issues have gotten worse. they lied a lot, i don’t think it was on purpose, i will never know, but they lied.

the eventual and terrible fall of our relationship was just a kick in the shin. previously, in august of 2022, we got assualted physically by our step mother. i don’t want to talk about it. but it made things worse. we hadn’t been physically abused for 3 (?) years till that point. our memory surpressors had done such a good job at keeping everything quiet and it got unleashed again after that. i guess the one thing we weren’t honest about was how bad our ptsd had gotten after that, but i don’t think we were aware.

ethan, our protector for our physical abuse memories, especially from middle school, came back from dormancy a month later. he helped me and the others who were suffering and he brought with him more sufferage. he holds emotions more then memories, he feels for us and surpresses till he can’t. he and aimee are our most suicidal alters. guess im third, maybe forth with RAN.

but the sucession of a traumatic event and then having your partner of almost a year do things that make you feel like they stop caring, was hard. it added to a greater collapse.

i think our ex traumatized us, with this in mind. maybe it was just us that traumatized us? i dont know. i cant think about this without blaming myself. but i feel like they didn’t, they just added to /it/ whatever /it/ is.

we got into a relationship with our bestfriend i will call “R” shortly after breaking up and we ended up breaking up yesterday because we both are just aromantic and asexual and idk. it felt wrong? we are just friends that like to kiss and have greater feelings for eachother and i don’t see anything wrong with it.

but the relationship wasn’t a rebound, weirdly enough, it felt like there wasn’t any difference besides hanging out more and going on offical dates. but it taught me a lot, mostly that high commitment relationships like previous ex i talked about above, i will call “S”, aren’t for me. low commitment, not giving a shit about things i was constantly anxious over with S (both our faults) was amazing. R didn’t give a shit about reading my mind and i didn’t give a shit about reading theirs. i got better at recognizing what my emotions are because R didn’t guess for me like S would. i could just feel then go from there.

R gave me space that i needed. R as a friend always has given me space and spite both of us being fairly touch oriented with eachother, they didn’t get mad when i suddenly didn’t want touch, which as a system, meant a lot. it’s little acts and mannerisms that R does that make me feel safe. R doesn’t have tone in their voice, which makes me anxious sometimes because i can’t tell their tone but they always tell me when i ask. R has only triggered me in ways that are normal for a person with ptsd. R hasn’t triggered me like S would.

as much as S and I cared about eachother, we would never make it. we were anxiously attached to eachother, which isn’t unhealthy, but when alters get into play and that attachment shifts into other kinds, it can cause issues when communication is terrible.

im rarely anxiously attached to R. it happens when im triggered around them, but they don’t mind it and they don’t treat me weirdly. its nice. R is a really good friend.

it was canada day, its now 1 am so not anymore, but it was! which feels weird to me always. canada holds a lot of good memories but holds a lot of anger, at my family, at the world, at my trauma. the drunk people hooting and hollering at the clicking and bangs of the fire works are a good sound track to a very dissociative night. im spending the night on the boat, which is fun, pretty cold though. my dad saved up all his money for this thing and i gotta say its really nice. more blankets would be nice tho. (subtle shade)

i dont know why i decided to write here, i just need an outlet, somewhere to put my thoughts like a diary but it feels like im doing something. i realized tonight that i can’t talk about my feelings anymore. so maybe this will help.

this morning is when i realized it. i woke up upset i dont remember why and i told myself i would ask my mom for help and i just didnt. then i got the call around 4 that our cousin had died. i didn’t feel anything, i didn’t say anything, i couldn’t. i got asked if i was upset and i said yes but i wasn’t. then i told our mom and cried. i didnt know our cousin that well, but she gave me good memories. the only memories from our childhood that dont make us upset are because of her, at her wedding, before our nana past and everything went to shit. she gave us a sliver of a childhood that wasn’t resenting ourself and she was gone. we hoped one day we could talk to her again, but we can’t anymore.

i can’t express my feelings or talk about them. when i try to squeeze out a tear for dear old dad i can’t. when anyone brings up anything i just cant. people ask me if im okay all of the time and im not talking small talk, they sit me aside and ask if im going to kill myself and i see the sadness in their eyes and i see the genuine care but i say no, im fine, im okay. i wish i was brave, i wish i wish i wish. i want to beg for help i want to scream for it but i can’t even whisper it.

the truth is that i need help, badly. ive attempted to kill myself and thought about it more and more over the past two years. my self harm addiction gets worse everyday and i started drinking again. i have nothing to live for but myself and i don’t know who that is, especially recently.

god our system’s organization has gone to shit since toby went dormant. all our organization has. shes coming back, slowly, im making sure its fucking slowly because i dont want any risks in hurting her more. he was the most effected by the break up being our relationship trauma holder, it fucked him up, bad. the week after it happened we both were at front a lot, with chris. and she would lay in my lap and i would scratch her head and he would say to me, “julia, this is going to hurt me bad. when i go dormant, take care of yourself.” and i would tell her she wasn’t going anywhere but it eventually had to happen.

anytime toby fronted we were a mess of tears and snot. she would try to do unsafe sexual acts and unlike others who just think about it, she would attempt it. he got so bad. worse then ive seen her ever before. it was like all the sunshine she is was taken out of him. he became a husk. it would talk to our friends and he would eventually just zone out and tears would come. she blames herself for the break up more than anyone else. he was the alter S was the worst around, so it makes sense. but it still fucking sucks.

anyways im gonna go try and organize because toby isn’t here to do that currently! im gonna try and get our system shit back in order if all else fails, we need that.

[gracefully-bi]

it really baffles me sometimes that in a community literally made for including people and supporting each other and accepting each other when no one else would, there are gatekeepers and exclusionists.....

like you do realise you’re going against the very thing that the community was founded for??

[just-being-leonest]

Live thoughts about season 2 episode 1

I am exhausted mentally so have fun deciphering what I’m saying

Transition from 0;48-0;49 was abrupt

why haven’t we heard about siblings before?

“cease this bitch crying” the curse is unneeded. it doesn’t fit with the kingly vibe of the character. he’s an asshole father yes but hes also supposed to be a regal king. you don’t need a curse there, it breaks character.

the circus bit with just blitz and fizz seems... kinda dumb and nonsensical? maybe something is just flying over my head but that scene feels empty and not in a good way

hold up... so i havent finished the episode yet (at 5;21) but did stolas’s family fucking own blitz? if so that makes stoliz even worse of a ship and even if they didnt that power dynamic is so fucking off. 

the balloon animal scene is... interesting

blitz having an abusive and manipulative father doesn’t excuse the fact he is now an asshole that ignores boundaries and uses people. a great example of this is bojack horseman

why hasn’t it been mentioned that they fucking know each other from childhood before? 

“I’m so good at daddy-ing” the only funny quote from helluva boss

“The living world” so are... demons and imps and shit not alive or smthing?

yeah no hes not a good boss. 

imma be honest, maybe it’s me being aromantic and not understanding love and shit, but if the person i liked as a kid came over and stole a bunch of shit from me, tricking me into helping them, 25 years later i wouldn’t still like that kid.

OKAY DOES STELLA FUCKING LIVE THERE OR NOT

LIKE SERIOUSLY EPISODE SEVEN

STOLAS SAID OCTAVIA WAS AT HER MOTHERS

IT WAS LATE AT NIGHT

WE CAN ASSUME SHE LEFT WITH OCTAVIA

SO DOES STELLA FUCKING LIVE THERE OR N O T

edit: apparently this was a flashback which. wasn’t made clear. at all

edit edit: SHE STILL FUCKING LIVES THERE????

also is no one gonna stop and think that Stella was also forced into this marriage?

like oh no shes an asshole kid

so is blitz

okay nitpick but the glass was empty when she threw it against the window why did it leave a red stain. 13;37

WAIT THIS ISNT PRESENT DAY

TF YOU COULDVE MADE THAT MORE CLEAR

Also the power imbalance here isnt sexy its disgusting

✨manipulation✨ and ✨power imbalance✨

“i barely remember your name” bitch why tf you lusting after him still-

sex repulsed ace just became more sex repulsed 

i skipped through the... i dont want to call it foreplay. ive read better foreplay in smut fanfiction written by virgin 12 year olds.

“thats the sound of a fucking divorce” SO WHY IS SHE TRYING TO KILL HIM

calling anti depressants happy pills is classy. stay classy viv. 

im not listening to the song i have no energy nor time for that bs i have an episode of welcome to demon school iruma-kun that’s begging to be watched after this

DOES

STELLA

FUCKING

LIVE 

THERE

OR

NOT

OKAY THANK YOU FOR THE ANSWER

Can you not kick her out

or just 

idk

fucking

move

YOU HAVENT GOTTEN THE DIVORCE YET

also random thoughth but yes i do consider stella abusive

funny how all the female characters in helluva boss with any sense of story purpose are either dicks (or framed as such in the case of Verosika) or are just there as props to give the male characters some semblance of a character

all in all

episode was confusing

and characters werent v realistic

3/10

[holycrimin]

Hi!! Since it's pride month, i'm gunna be sharing my ninjago character hcs! :)

Kai

-He/him, is trying to experiment with they/them pronouns aswell

-Bisexual with a lean towards women, thought he was straight then realized he also liked men and other genders aswell

-Cisgender and incredibly supportive of transgender people

-will gladly kick and/or punch a homphobe/transphobe

Nya

-She/they queen

-DemiAce (Demiromantic Asexual) she didn't have a lot of friends growing up, which in turn also means she never really crushed on anyone aswell.

-thought they were Aromantic for a while until she looked it up on google and went "OHHH"

-Demigirl, and just like her brother, they will gladly kick and/or punch a homophobe/transphobe in the face.

Cole

-He/him/all, he prefers he/him but can go with any pronouns really

-Gay. I think a lot of us agree on that one

-Didn't have any crushes on girls but somehow didn't connect the dots until he was like 15-16

-Alot of internalised homophobia at first because he was scared his dad was going to be disappointed in him, he wasn't but Cole was still scared

-Idk but he's definitely not cis, maybe agender or non-binary?

Jay

-He/him

-pansexual, he does not give two shits

-growing up, he had a LOT of crushes like i mean a LOT, on boys, girls, androgynous people, just.. everyone really

-Ed and Edna just accepted it and even encouraged him to be whoever he was.

-speaking of which, he's transmasc. Idk why it just makes sense

-Had a "i'm not like other girls" phase, then turns out he wasn't a girl at all

-Is on T and had top surgery between S7 and S8

Zane

-He/they/it

-Panromantic Asexual, it just makes sense man

-When they met their father, he asked if it was normal for him to feel attraction at all

-ofc It's dad said yes, then they had an hour long conversation about attraction, the LGBTQ+ community, etc.

-Agender. It was built as a man, but since learning about LGBT stuff, he's found an identity he was comfortable with.

-also they made like.. little metal plates resembling a female and male chest just incase dysphoria hits

Pixal

-Goes by all pronouns

-Greyromantic Asexual, never thought he could ever experience attraction then Zane came along and he was like "uh oh i think i'm inlove"

-wasn't sure what it was at first, human emotions were confusing for her at the time.

-They eventually learned over time and she's proud of who she is.

-They're also Agender, not for the same reason Zane was, though. She was actually supposed to be an androgynous android, but then decided it would rather have a more feminine body, voice, face, etc.

-His father, Cyrus Borg, just kinda went "Okay whatever you want sweetie :)"

-if dysphoria ever hits, she just uses the different breastplates her father made.

Lloyd

-He/It, he just likes it

-demiromantic asexual, thought he was straight his whole life then he found out about the Aromantic and Asexual spectrum

-it told its mother and she was like "that's great honey, do you wanna drink some tea now?"

-was genuinely surprised she didn't have a reaction at all even though he hyped himself up the night prior its coming out, and also practiced in the mirror in which the others overheard and now he denies it ever happening

-he found out like.. way after his dad kinda yknow.. 💀.. so obviously he literally couldnt tell him

-Transmasc. Bc i'm transmasc and I say so.

-he has indeed beat up a transphobe/homophobe before. Multiple times, actually.
