Here lay my top favorite webcomics!!
My favorites of all time forever and ever until the end of time; my top recommendations; the ones that will always hold a special place in my heart; the ones I wish the authors can get published one day so I can read their stories all the time without a webcomic app draining the battery of my phone; the ones that always have me pacing back and forth in my excitement after every episode.
1: REEDS by zzsleeps (he/him)
3: Staredown by soycisoy (she/her)
4: The Prince of Southland by Chris Geroux
6: Ignoring My Friends by JooooCat
7: Bailin & Li Yun by Jayessart
8: Your Wings and Mine by hakeism (they/them)
9: Faroff by Lennon Rook
13: To Hell With You by Tiny and Keyade
14: Plain Boy & Prince by amanduuri
15: Idiots Don’t Catch Colds by Aina Palm
16: Sunny Side Skies by soaporsalad
17: Our Walk Home by furanc0 (he/him)
18: Crystal City Killers by gleodoria (he/him)
19: The Doctors are Out by Blau
20: Fathoms of Atonement by Jayessart
21: The Blind Prince by cozycroww
22: Fangs and Fools by llamanoko
23: The Art of Silence by Arthur Quiet
24: Cursed Princess Club by LambCat
25: High Class Homos by Momozerii
26: Loveproof by zzyned
27: My Brother’s (Not So) Secret Boyfriend by metaromantic
28: Cinderella Boy by Punko (she/her I believe).
29: Snow and Briar by M. Nires
30: My Two Cents, PLUS TAX by Geezerflakes
31: Starving for Attention by snazzyNO3
32: Flower Knights by Torandil
(More to be added).
Few things to note:
1: I will include links - not to the webcomics themselves, but to my reasons for loving and obsessing over them in their own individual posts. It will include things like screenshots I’ve taken during my reading of them, how I discovered the story, my thoughts on it, the official summaries and genres, sometimes stuff about the author, and a TL;DR.
If there’s one without a link that you’re interested in hearing about, feel free to ask and I’ll see about making it next to the best of my abilities (no need to be a moot or following me to request).
2: You may notice some numbers missing from the list, or out of order. That’s because some comics on this list I have forgotten about and would like to reread before making sure they’re on this specific list or belong to another one (I’ve a lot of lists). The order will be fixed some time in the far future after I have decided on those webcomics and reorganized a few things.
3: I try to include the pronouns of the creators too so I refer to them correctly - it’s for myself more than anything else - but not all of them have their pronouns listed anywhere I could find so those ones are left blank.
Also lemme know if any of the links are not working and I’ll see what I can do about it :)
#I believe there is a 100 link limit#so I may have to make a part 2 one day#webcomics#my favorites#lists#list#recommendations#masterpost

Aromanticism is a spectrum, you absolute asshole. Romance is a spectrum. Alloromance is strictly romantic attraction, but aromance is everything from experiencing no romantic attraction up to and until always experiencing conventional romantic attraction. Aromantic, while commonly describing someone who experiences little to no romantic attraction, includes people whose experience of romance is disconnected from normative societal expectations.
Greyromantic is a valid type of aromanticism. Demiromantic is a valid type of aromanticism. If you say or think otherwise, you are the problem. Not the aromantic people who aren't strictly aromantic. You.
Under the 'Keep Reading' link are labels of different types of aromance. The people who identity with them are all aromantic, and a valid part of the aromantic community. They are all part of the aromantic spectrum, no matter how much or how little or what type of aromance they experience. You do not get to gatekeep aromance simply because you do not agree with them.
[IMAGE ID: A screenshot of Tumblr tags that read: "#Aromantic. No kissy kissy #Except I enjoy kissy kissy #sometimes #And I want to date people #maybe #and also I might not be fully aromantic just with minor and fleeting romantic feelings" /.End ID]
Abroromantic, Acoromantic, Adfecturomantic/Affecturomantic/Adfectual/Adfomantic, Aegoromantic/Autochorisromantic, Akoi(ne)romantic/Aporomantic/Lithromantic, Akoiflux/Lithflux, Aroflux, Aliquaromantic, Amicusromantic, Apathromantic, Apothiromantic/Antiromantic, Apresromantic, Arohaze/Aromush/Arovoid/Neutral Aro, Aromate, Arospike, and Arovague are all valid forms of aromanticism.
Bellusromantic, Borearomantic, Burstromantic, Caed(o)romantic, Caligoromantic, Cassromantic, Ceaseromantic, Cruxromantic/Exige(n)romantic/Requiromantic, Cupioromantic/Dependromantic/Kalosromantic, Desinoromantic, Dreadromantic, Duoromantic, Duraromantic, Fictoromantic, Frayromantic/Ignotaromantic/Protoromantic, Iamvanoromantic, Idemromantic, Implaromantic/Inexromantic, and Inactoromantic/Initiaromantic are all valid forms of aromanticism.
Limnoromantic, Loveless Aromantic, Malaromantic, Metaromantic, Nebularomantic, Neuroromantic, Nonamorous/Nonpartnering, Noviromantic, Omniaromantic/Panaromantic, Placioromantic, Plat(oni)romantic, Polarromantic, Polyaffectionate, Preromantic, Propeestromantic, Quasiromantic, Quoiromantic/WTFromantic, Recipromantic, Requi(es)romantic, Romo Aro, Schromantic, Singuluromantic, Solaro/Unicum Aro, Thymromantic, and Venusplatonic are all valid forms of aromanticism.
There are still some labels or terms that I did not include here. They can be found at: https://www.aromanticism.org/en/all-terms
If you are still reading this, I hope you look into what each and every one of those lables read. Maybe you can educate yourself on what aromanticism actually is.
And if you don't even make the effort to learn about the people you are alienating and vilifying, then go fuck yourself you aromisic dickhead.
It's absolutely okay for kids to make a pit stop by some orientations on the way to finding themself.
But this?
Go away. Fuck off. Leave aromantic (and asexual) people completely alone and stop using us as some customizable attributes in your super special character creation because you think being straight or gay or bi or whatever is too common for your pretentious majesty.
"I'm aromantic, except--" You're allo. You experience attraction. I promise it's fine.

Pansexual Metaromantic Queerplatonic Panamorous Pride Flag
Pansexual: sexual attraction to all genders, or regardless of gender.
Metaromantic: Only experiencing attraction that is unable to be defined by strict terms of platonic or romantic. Coined with the idea of those who only experience queer/quasiplatonic attraction in mind, but available to all who simply cannot define their attraction in ways that are typical and easily understood in the context of societal norms of attraction and relationships.
Queerplatonic (or Quasiplatonic, or Quirkyplatonic): a relationship relationship that is not romantic but involves a close emotional connection (platonic) beyond what most people consider friendship. The commitment level in a queerplatonic relationship is often considered to be similar to that of a romantic relationship. People in a queerplatonic relationship may be of any romantic or sexual orientation. A partner in a queer platonic relationship is called a zucchini; A relationship that is neither completely romantic, nor completely platonic. The members of the relationship may see it to be a mix of romantic and platonic relationships or something that transcends the two. It is popular in the aromantic community but anyone may a queer platonic partner.
Panamory: One who identifies as a person capable of relationships with many kinds of partners regardless of their sexual orientation or gender(s).

Where someone's preference changes based on their current partner

So I realized that I actually feel an intense platonic love for some people and it's barely different from my romantic feelings except that I dont want a relationship with those ppl or sex or anything, and I realized my platonic and romantic attraction are only rlly distinguished by things like their age, sexuality, etc
For some people strong platonic love and romantic love feel very similar or even the same. If you’re interested there’s a few labels you might find useful:
Idemromantic: when someone categorizes relationships as platonic or romantic but experiences no notable internal differences.
Platoniromantic: When someone feels no difference between platonic and romantic attraction.
Metaromantic: Only experiencing attraction that is unable to be defined in strict terms of platonic or romantic.
Quoiromantic: Actively disidentifying with the concept of romantic attraction or not feeling like it’s a sensical or accessible category or that it’s applicable to you. There’s a great write up on it here but feeling like platonic and romantic love feel similar is one reason people choose to ID as quoiromantic.
All the best, Anon!

heyyy, I've noticed that you're very good with finding labels, and I'm wondering if you could help me out? I'm genderfae, and I thought I was aro, but recently I've had what I think is romantic attraction (I'm not sure) towards girls. I think I have crushes on girls, but I haven't had any on anyone I know in real life. I like the idea of having a girlfriend, but when I really think about dating and being in a relationship with someone, I don't like it. Part 1
“Part 2; I've been told that I could be aro, grey-aro or lesbian, but none of those really perfectly fit me. I've been going by queer recently, and I do like that label, but if I could find a better one, it would be helpful. Also, on the days that I've felt more romantic attraction, I've asked myself if I'd rather spend time with/ move in with a romantic partner, or a friend (I've always wanted to move in with someone), and there's been less than no question about it. Part 3; I've always preferred friendship to romance, to the point where I don't care at all about romance, but I'm not sure if I just really value friendship, or if I actually don't want romance. Thank you for reading this, and for the help :) “
I’m glad you find comfort under the queer umbrella, but I do understand the wish to find a more specific label, so I shall do my best to help! This is gonna be a long one so bear with me
{For my own reference - You experience some or partial romantic attraction, sometimes more strongly than usual, but don’t wish to actively pursue or be involved in romantic activity}
Possible Terms: Aegoromantic: When one enjoys the idea of romance, but does not wish to be a participant in romantic activities. Akoi(ne)romantic: When one experiences romantic attraction, and enjoys romantic relationships in theory, but does not need that affection to be reciprocated or to be in a relationship with the individual of their affections.Inactoromantic: When one experiences romantic attraction and desires a romantic relationship, but doesn’t like romantic actions.
More Possible Terms:Aroflux: When the strength/intensity of romantic attraction one feels fluctuatesArospike: When one experiences short, sudden periods of romantic attraction that fade quicklyBurstromantic: Experiencing attraction that appears and disappears with or without any specific reason(s).
So as I was doing my digging for you, I remembered that, hey, romantic and sexual aren’t the only types of attraction outside of platonic. It’s completely possible for you to feel something “more” than platonic, without it being necessarily romantic.
Exploring other types of attraction:Tertiary attraction: An umbrella term that includes types of attraction that are not strictly categorizable into romantic or sexual attraction.Alterous attraction: An interest or desire for emotional closeness without necessarily being platonic and/or romantic; This can be a significant attraction that is related to, parallel to, or entirely unrelated to any other attractions. (eg romantic, sensual, platonic, sexual)Metaromantic: When one experiences attraction that cannot be defined strictly in terms of romantic or platonic attraction; Used by those who experience alterous or any other tertiary attraction.Queerplatonic Relationship (QPR): A committed non-romantic relationship that goes beyond what is the subjective cultural norm for a friendship. Levels of intimacy and/or behaviors between the partners involved often don’t fit the conventional standards set by society. In practice every queerplatonic relationship is different. Some may include sex, or elements seen as traditionally romantic. Whatever the relationship entails is the decision of those involved. (Queerplatonic is also referred to as, and can be replaced with, Quasiplatonic - for those who are uncomfortable with and/or adverse to the use of Queer)For more info about Queerplatonic, I invite you to visit this page. Amorplatonic: When one experiences romantic attraction but only wishes to be involved in a queerplatonic relationship(s). If any of these labels feels right for you, that’s awesome. If you want to be more specific, since your attraction is to girls/women, then tack on Sapphic, or the prefix Gyne- (eg Sapphic Aroflux, Gynealterous, etc)As usual, if anyone has anything to add, go ahead! I usally edit suggestions in.Hope this helps dear! Sending you all my love and good gay vibes~

Sence we’re getting so many asks about the names for various orientations I thought I would post an updated version of our aspec orientation dictionary. This dictionary also exists here on our blog and is frequently updated, but something screwy is going on with the bolding on that page right now so it might be hard to read. There’s also a copy of it here in the Quicksand font because I find that that’s easier for folks with dyslexia and other LD’s to read then Arial is.
Note: this is not a complete list. A-spec terminology is constantly growing and changing and it’s hard to keep track of every single term, so if I missed an orientation please let me know, I’ll be happy to add it!

Just sending some terms I found on PFFU's documents that weren't here. Mero - Being okay with some sexual/romantic/etc. acts but repulsed/averted by others. Neuroaromantic -Wanting to be in a romantic relationship but you are scared of them due to being (or relating to being) neuroatypical, neurodiverse, or mentally ill. (Part 1/idk like 5 or 6?)
More terms. Nubilagender- A term to describe when part of one’s gender is unidentifiable. Also known as maringender. Perogender- Wanting to be a certain gender, but not being of said gender. Vaguefluid- A gender which is fluid, but determining one’s current gender is difficult due to neurodivergency. Cogitofluid- A gender that is fluid only when one thinks about it. Greengender- A subset of colorgender, for the color green. (2/5)
Split- An orientation defined by the symptom of splitting, which causes attraction to fluctuate intensely. Anesigender- Feeling like a certain gender but feeling more comfortable identifying as another. Sensu - An orientation based around sensuality as opposed to romance or sexuality, etc.. Different from a sensual orientation. In other words, romantic type pleasure or sexual type pleasure, etc. is desired or derived from sensuality. (3/5)
Poeti - Feeling attraction to certain genders only hypothetically or fictionally, e.g. poeti-homosexual heterosexual for someone who is heterosexual but is hypothetically attracted to the same gender. (4/5)
Metaromantic -Only experiencing attraction that is unable to be defined by strict terms of platonic or romantic. Coined with the idea of those who only experience queer/quasiplatonic attraction in mind, but available to all who simply cannot define their attraction in ways that are typical and easily understood in the context of societal norms of attraction and relationships. (5/5)
Most of those are already on our docs, but thanks anyway! The ones I added were:
Anesigender as an option to ansigender
Cogitofluid/Pensfluid/Opinofluid/etc. near Pensgender/Opinogender/etc. (remember this one is listed on the L-Z list since Pensgender is the first listed option)
Vaguefluid near vaguegender
I added greengender as an specific example under colorgender, but I don’t think it’s needed to add a specific item under every color; it would be like adding separate options for all possible combinations of altegenders, and even just the ones with flags are a lot.
The @pride-color-schemes blog is a good resource for those who want to reblog or to refer to specific identities, but please remember our docs are the better resource!

[image description: six different cartoon-style bunting graphics, featuring six pride flags hanging from a brown rope. The flags are rectangular, finishing in a chevron shape, and have rows of brown stitching across the top of the flag and along the bottom of the chevron. First image in each set shows the flags with the topmost stripes facing the left; second image shows the three right-hand flags flipped, so all topmost edges face away from the centre of the bunting. First set of flags shows a fuchsia/grey/mint desinoromantic flag, second set grey/peach/lemon/grey metaromantic flag, and third set the lime/pink/white/black polarromantic flag.]

Hey there! Just a question- is there like a term for someone who romantically leans towards females but at the same time doesn’t really *get* romantic attraction? That probably doesn’t make sense sorry but I guess I just aren’t entirely sure what romantic attraction is, or how it differs from platonic. Thanks!
So in regards to attraction to women, the gender-neutral term for it (since you didn’t mention your gender) would be Gyne-/Gyno- or Woma-/Woman- romantic.
As for the second part, there are a few terms that may fit, although its always okay to change if you ever can differentiate between romantic and platonic attraction!
There is:
Quoiromantic (also known as WTFromantic or Whatromantic):
Being unsure if you experience attraction or notBeing unable to understand attraction as a concept or feelingFinding the concept of attraction to be inaccessible, inapplicable, nonsensicalBeing unable to define romantic attraction so unable to say whether or not you experience itHaving a hard time distinguishing romantic attraction from other types of attractions, or being unable to distinguish them at all (For example, you can’t distinguish romantic feelings from platonic, or you have a hard time distinguishing romantic from sensual feelings)Struggling to find a better term because it is too complicated or because they just don’t fit any other termNot experiencing romanticism in a traditional manner
Platoniromantic: An orientation where a type of attraction is experienced as the same as, or indistinguishable from platonic attraction
Idemromantic: Categorizes relationships and feelings as platonic or romantic but experiences no notable internal differences. They may categorize certain relationships as romantic instead of platonic based on age, personality compatibility, emotional closeness, ease of living together, presence of sexual attraction, or other factors. But their feelings toward their romantic interests would not be particularly distinguishable from platonic feelings and may be similar to how they feel for a best friend or beloved family member
Metaromantic: Only experiencing attraction that is unable to be defined by strict terms of platonic or romantic. Coined with the idea of those who only experience queer/quasiplatonic attraction in mind, but available to all who simply cannot define their attraction in ways that are typical and easily understood in the context of societal norms of attraction and relationships
Nebularomantic: A feeling that one cannot distinguish between a type of attraction and platonic feelings due to neurodivergence
If you feel like any of these fit you, I can find the flag!
