Hot take and not to be a killjoy or the shipping police but people treating Viktor or Jinx's aroace headcanons as if they were canon is not the revolutionary take people think it is.

Headcanons are always all right but we have to acknowledge that they are somehow damaging when they apply to stereotypes. It might not be the case for everyone but most of the time people unconsciously assume that disability/mental illness=asexuality. These headcanons erase the freedom of attraction from people who are already seen as unable to have sexual/romantic experiences/desires, when it's completely untrue and harmful.

You can headcanon Viktor and Jinx as aroace, but I have seen people changing their minds once Viktor is no longer disabled (s2 with all of his other forms) and Jinx is no longer as mentally ill (alternate universe Powder). And it speaks wonders of how people see these characters.

"I never thought about Jinx being able to feel romantic/sexual attraction until s2!" To believe she's actually only capable of that when she's not "damaged" is incredibly disturbing. Especially since Jinx has always had a bit of a flirty personality too.

"I've always seen Viktor as asexual, I don't know why!" That's fine. You can headcanon him as ace. But I believe there is a reason behind it, most of the time, if for some inexplicable reason the "vibes" of the disabled character are making you think he's ace.

I say all of this being aroaspec myself, by the way. Headcanon all you want but going to people's posts commenting how "it's weird for you that they have romantic/sexual plots when they're clearly aroace" is not a win at all. It's a headcanon, after all, and it should be treated as such, and that's fine. But it also is damaging to spread stereotypes like these.

Of course the disabled character is asexual. Of course the mentally ill character is aromantic. It's not as revolutionary as you might think, tbh.

Fandom is not activism and it's all right to have any headcanons you want BUT some of them are filled with damaging stuff and perhaps we should look into ourselves more before treating these assumptions as something canon.

Joining HSR back in early November of 2024 was arguably the worst time to possibly get into the game for a spoiler free playthrough. I join the game, a dude named Inhibitor Lunae is staring back at me. He is clearly a sluttified version of my cool new secretive pal Dan Heng. Alright cool, guess I know what he was hiding. Next banner is a gay man and Acheron. Cool! I’m sure it’s not important that her hair turns white and she’s Nihility path. Sunday is up next, no idea who that is- oh he’s an express member in the future? Cool, I’m sure he’ll be a delightful little guy to meet and won’t be up to anything even potentially sinister. Fugue? Hey she looks a lot like Tingyun. She is Tingyun? Oh cool I literally just watched Tingyun die 5 minutes ago. No idea how that‘s gonna work but yeah sure why not

Is Mad Mew Mew “in” Unexpected Guests? As in is their whole segment in the Nintendo update is canon in the unexpected guests world, where the skeletons sink leads to some random room. Do paps and sans use that sink room?

Toby keeps putting stuff in that room that i'm not sure is meant to be fully canon or not XD first it was the dog shrine for playstation, then it was mad mew mew for nintendo, and then it was the... casino? For the xbox?? Lol

But i think?? in subsequent extra-canon stuff like the newsletters, mew mew is clearly present. Toby clearly wants to keep her around, and I'm fine with that ^^ i can think of ways she'd get her body that don't involve breaking into the skelebros' house, so one of those would be what's "canon" lol

In any case, except for maybe the dog shrine, all this happened after i was writing unexpected guests. So no, there's just a really tall cabinet under there XD

Do you think Tucker is like that one post on here where the mad scientist brings his wife back from the dead and thinks 'wow she is so changed' but actually she's exactly the same he just never knew her really? Like tucker keeps trying to make new Trudys that match his idea of His Trudy™ the original, the perfect girl, but this was the 50s and he never really knew his wife outside of the context of what she did for him. So all of these robot versions of Trudy are His Trudy™ just as she was, as he never knew her

The more parts she loses, the more humanity she gains. The more she deteriorates, the more she loves.

I'm tired of robot women horror films. Give me the movie about a professional lonely woman and her robot man companion. There is so much untapped potential in that scenario. You could go horror, drama or straight up rom-com and the result would be equally interesting imo.
