Being both aroace and a huge nerd, it irks me a little that 99% of the asexual and/or aroace headcanons I see (and not aroallo headcanons interestingly, which could be its own post but I digress) are about characters who spend all their time working/studying/etc…. scientists, academics, introverts, shut-ins, even. I assume the common reasoning is that these characters only care about their work and don’t have time for things like relationships and sex. But like. You know that’s not what asexuality is… right 😀

Obviously it’s fine to headcanon these types of characters as ace, but I just always wonder about allo fans’ reasoning for it and what it implies about their opinions of asexual people. When the ONLY characters you can think of as ace are just nerdy, quiet/socially awkward characters with no other canon implications that they’d be ace, to me it just sounds like you think people are asexual because they can’t attract sexual partners? Or because they don’t have time for relationships??

Anyway it just annoys me a little that this is the VAST majority of the ace representation I see, both in canon and fandom. I’m an aroace academic, but I’m not aroace because I don’t have time for people or because I’m shy or awkward or lonely or whatever. I’m aroace because I’m aroace lol

Tl;dr, asexual/aroace people aren’t all innocent nerdy introverts (and aroallos aren’t all extroverts with a long history of one night stands, btw). Let ace characters be loud and stupid. Or try headcanoning a loud and stupid character as ace (you can do it, I promise)

Did Sisyphus even know it was Gabriel who killed him? Had it been someone else, would he even notice the difference? A soldier is a sword is a weapon is a tool—who cares about memorizing which dog's muzzle is at your throat when it's his masters you're after

truly though, i am comforted by the idea of regis being autistic because… consider. he’s been alive for hundreds of years and has been through so much turmoil and has had to commit to self-improvement and self-control and all of these ideals and principles. and in the same process of that, he had to examine himself—take a good look in the mirror, as the saying goes… though it may not be quite accurate in this case—why he faced these insurmountable issues in the first place which instigated and excerbated his vices in the first place. “treat the cause, not the symptoms.”

and the cause was that he didn’t like himself. he only drank to escape… from himself. so he could be a different self, one that others accepted, but one who very quickly became a terrible person—because that version of himself had none of his ever-so-dislikable and aggravating and unrelatable traits: his know-it-all-isms, his philosophizing, his overthinking. his lack of understanding the social cues he was surrounded by. everything that would “spoil the party.” the libation was the symptom of insecurity and disbelief that anyone could truly accept him for the way he is, unaltered, sober.

and even with all of this time, possibly the span of an entire human life, spent working on himself, spent trying to understand others—he learned two things.

firstly—after all this time—he cannot change himself. he has to live with, and possibly embrace, the parts of himself that long ago made him impossible to gain social approval. even if now, he is living a solitary and even somewhat isolated life.

(note: yes, he only spends three months out of the year nearby fen carn, and the rest of the year he lives in dilingen, in a city—while i don’t doubt that he was an important pillar of the community, with his altruistic tendencies, he also never mentions having any close friends in dillingen. he decided in one night to join geralt’s quest. he didn’t worry that anyone from dillingen would miss him…)

secondly—even after all this time spent trying to have a better relationship with and to fit in with society (and even though he’s become, if i may say with modesty, very good at it, exceptionally good at it), it’s still a very intentional factor of his life, something that takes a carefully prepared set of behavior and mental work. it’s still “mimicking.” again, the span of an entire human lifetime put into understanding people and society and he still doesn’t. there’s still much he does not understand, does not agree with, and even ridicules. he has integrated into the society, but he does not innately understand it. he only understands it through his uniquely analytical perspective, the perspective of an outsider trying to understand.

If lady sneasler went back home with Ingo i think eventually she would want to try battling with him. I mean it looks fun, everyone tells her it's a good bonding moment for both trainer and Pokémon and it's a golden opportunity to show off, why not? Who's going to stop her, the pearl clan?

Ingo takes a bit of convincing, out of respect for both her and the traditions of the pearl clan, but he relents eventually. He can't deny he's been wanting to do this as well. After a bit of training they have the time of their life destroying people's (read: Emmet, the elite four, other Frontier Brains and generally just other strong trainers (sorry i didn't include Elesa. I love her very much but she is not on their level methinks 😔. Id love to be proven wrong tho)) teams, with a mix of Ingo's old and new team and her as the ace for once in unregulated matches. (Turns out, noble Pokémon naturally have insane stats and therefore cannot partecipate in league matches or official battles. Ingo has to nerf sneasler/the rest of his team or use less Pokémon as a result, but he loves the challenge. He's thrilled when people defeat him.)

(Emmet takes this as a challenge. As long as his Pokémon are on board, he's building his way up to defeating Ingo when they're not holding back. He gets scarily close every time.)

I ran out of space in the tags but blankshippers dni pls. Let's stay in our respective lanes and not interact

Deep breath. Anyone wanna vividly imagine happy, Covid-less irl MCC9 Blue Bats at Twitchcon with me 😌

Like okay, it's the first time the hermits are playing competitively. They've got their practice streams but they have to play live now. They've got their irl Blue Bats shirts. Everyone's hyped. It's kind of an awkward meetup because they're mostly strangers but it's fine. It's cool. The hermits are surprised by how young Fruit is and he just goes :] yeah I recently turned 18 lol. They see Fruit do his parkour with his mouse and his keyboard and their jaws drop because it's just ???? how does he even do it??? we're so old lol.

They're still the underdogs so the casters don't pay much attention to them compared to the other teams. It's 2020 so we're in the Dream-Techno era. Blue Bats are waiting to be called out and everyone's nervous as fuck but they know they have to hold it together for the sake of their teammates. Ren talks about sweating to diffuse the tension. It kind of works. It also kind of doesn't.

The Blue Bats are introduced. The casters have miraculously gained knowledge of the lore and introduce them as the underdogs, making reference to H's infamous "and the entire MCC community sleeps on the Blue Bats" tweet. They mention H's redemption arc after losing Dodgebolt in the previous MCC. They mention Fruit being eager to prove himself. They mention the hermits gunning for the first win. They also mention False and Ren always teaming together because this is an imaginary scenario by me and I always pepper that in

So they walk out to Fort Minor's Remember the Name. "Smile and wave boys (and False!)". They still look a bit awkward but it's cool because Remember the Name makes everything cool. They get less applause overall but there's that subset of the community that followed them from the start and they're screaming the house down. Also a very good portion of Hermitcraft audience faint in their chairs when Ren and False walk out because. Y'know. You understand. 😳 Like if I were there I would've passed out from bisexuality and missed the damn event. Anyway

They're still nervous. Then Ren and H do a bit about Ren doing pushups as a warmup and Ren actually does it irl because his brain is fried with nerves and he just needs to do something. This gets the cameras on them. Someone mentions Hermitgang. Someone asks them to sing it. False politely declines while Ren bravely endures. (He gets so embarrassed by it once the cameras are away.) Basically Ren replies to the cameras for the team when they're around (the man didn't lead that panel discussion for nothing! Also the casters know he's eye candy and he's making everyone go 😳😳😳 lmfbdjksabjkdbalsbdhsabdab). (Twitch Rivals chat: I don't know who that man is but I would like to make his acquaintance 😳.)

Ren has mic problems. This is a constant.

MCC begins and the Bats slay their way in SkB and scream "WE DIDN'T EVEN LOSE A SINGLE PLAYER!!". This goes on as normal. The casters introduced them as the underdogs, but they don't pay much attention to them at first, and only decide to interview them when they start climbing the ranks. Ren and H eagerly speak to the interviewers and thank people for their support while Fruit and False are like 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♀️. The rest of the hermits are cheering in the audience. The casters ask them which game they want the least. All four them in unison: Survival Games.

You'll never guess what happens next. It's Survival Games.

The camera focuses on the Blue Bats as they all go "noooooo :(" and the casters comment on how this may be the end for them. Blah blah blah Grian kills Dream. Unlike what happened in MCCTR, they do not fight it out on stage. It's mostly because no one wants Dream's mask to accidentally fall off (and the hermits are scared of buff Grian's strength on Dream's behalf.) Grian gets the spotlight for a good while until the casters abruptly realise the Blue Bats are dominating, and immediately switch to them.

By now the HC fans are in hysterics and screaming sobbing wailing simping dying laughing and still screaming. Grian's still screaming "THE MOMENT OF MY LIFE!!!!!".

Once they win SG, the Bats jump out of the chairs to scream and celebrate and hug each other 🥺 they do this for a significant amount of time, all cameras are on them, they start playing Remember the Name again, Fruit screams "I'M FIRST OVERALL!" and H screams "UNDERDOGS MY ASS LET'S GO!". The casters are going crazy with this development and they start spinning up the story.

The infamous SOT. The Dream iron door situation would be wack to see irl. Something probably happens but we skip past that because it's Dodgebolt time baby!!

Like 70% of the room is cheering for Green and Blue is super nervous but they got this! The casters eagerly narrate False's failed 1v3 and bring back H's Reddit post predicting her in DB. Green has more clout and the casters mention that (they call Sapnap the Messi of MCC, this is still a comparsion they make for whatever reason).

It's a blur, but they encourage each other even when they're two down. Ren talks about sweating and the entire team turns to look at him irl like 🤨⁉️. His rizz is so strange. The Ren simpage is reaching extremely dangerous levels (and it's starting to reach Martyn on Pink).

Anyways they WIN WAHOOO! They jump out of their chairs, embrace each other, high five, yadayada and everyone EXPLODES because the underdogs just won with a reverse sweep, Fruit is first overall by a lot, the hermits just won, the HC fans are dying and thriving, lives have been changed. They get their silly crowns and they make their speeches. The Underdog by Spoon blasts on the speakers. They take so many photos and go and have a meal or whatever people actually do at Twitchcon :) anyways hours later Iskall and Ren approach H and ask him to join Vault Hunters. MCC9 is a canon event in any universe. A couple of them (*cough* Ren *cough*) party it out till 5am in some club. There's a HC panel at the next day and H and Fruit get to meet the hermits :D everyone lives happily ever after and I live in my unserious imagination :))
