#yeah it's great that it got popular but hgbasdkfl I don't wanna box myself into a corner and not let myself have fun

self-indulgent aro HCs because I can (tw: romance talk + salt below the cut)

ok I know on my rp blog Percy is romance-repulsed but tbh that’s just self-projection; realistically she’s in The Oblivious Gang (TM) who wouldn’t recognize romance if it slapped her across the face. one of the reasons Eros loves her so much is because he finds it endlessly funny to flirt with her, as she takes everything literally and has no idea what he means, ever

speaking of The Oblivious Gang (TM) JELLO GAVE ME OBLIVIOUS ARO GIO RIGHTS AND NOBODY CAN TAKE THOSE AWAY FROM ME. tbh I have had oblivious aro Gio vibes from him since day 1 but I never said anything bc of his original player’s statement but now nobody can say anything because Jello agrees with me

Howie is the hates romance gang. #&^! romance. all his worker bees hate romance. this post made by the SHUT UP AND DO YOUR #&$*!ING JOB GANG

(if I see one more person self-ship with Howie I will destroy a building. I know Howie would not want me destroying buildings but I swear if one more person erases the only canon aro rep we have—)

Molly is the only normal aro in the family and it takes her forever to realize she even is aro, she just isn’t all that interested in romance and kinda just.... never dates anyone? ofc she’s just baby rn so like it’s not even relevant yet, but once she’s in high school a few ppl ask her out and she’s just like no thanks, and then she continues to turn down every offer she gets until she’s late into her 20s and realizes “hm I don’t think I ever want to get married actually” and then doesn't.

(highkey, I literally only realized I had this HC after SO many people were asking for HCs about how the EAM fam would react to Molly dating/getting married and once I got past my initial “I wanna strangle you for even asking that” I was like.... actually I can’t even imagine her in that situation??? I just Do Not see Molly ever having an interest in romance.)

bonus:

I don’t wanna label Indus as fully “aromantic” because I don’t think it fits him; I mean ((vaguely motions to Mera)) but I think he's gotta fall somewhere on the spectrum (the aro spectrum; I mean he’s also autistic but that’s beside the point) because I don’t think he fully.... understands romance? like Mera’s 100% alloromantic, has all the daydreams/normal crush type stuff/loves romance-coded activities, but I don’t think Indus experiences his attraction in the same way. if Mera asked him to buy her flowers he’d be like “yes of course! :D” but he wouldn’t like, know WHY if that makes sense
