#that was a very very confusing combo of squish and aesthetic attraction like nothing I have felt sense. possibly also romantic attraction.

My sister, who is reading mistborn for the first time, texted me "Lord Elend Venture. If you were interested in men, he sounds perfect for you." and on the one hand I am so happy that she is very aware of my aroace-ness that she said "if you were interested in men" but on the other I am now compelled to correct her with "actually I'm greyromantic, and kind of interested in men." (I mean I've only got like one data point) "if you were interested in men" I am so happy to hear that opening to a sentence.
#I spent a while after that text trying to decide if I felt any attraction to elend like ever#there were particular character moments of his i'd like to study under a microscope#me texting my sister back like “I regret to inform you that I am rarely/ a little romantically attracted to men. sometimes.”#again only like one data point#although I suppose my absence of data points also count as different data points#there's also the fun and confusing combination of platonic and aesthetic attraction that happens on occasion. what's up with that?#and that's with anyone of like any gender#and then there was that 5'10“ buff lady from Michigan who called everyone ”friend!“ with purple underlights in her hair#that was a very very confusing combo of squish and aesthetic attraction like nothing I have felt sense. possibly also romantic attraction.#the world will never know#she had a 6 pack. a 6 pack. I blue-screened. it might have actually been an 8 pack.
