Happy Acespec Day from your friendly neighborhood Grey-Ace author! 41 turns around the sun for me, born on this most perfect of days. Of course, i had to make my annual Ace Art of my oc Johnny O’Sullivan in all his teenage glory for this year, because I realized I have never made a piece of his younger self, and because his young version is a reflection of me in so many ways, it felt right.
You can read his story in my webcomics Seemingly Dark, and Mil-Liminal, or you can read his asexual experience in a mini comic I did called Ace of Hearts, on Tapas HERE or on Webtoon HERE. 🖤🤍💜
Feel free to use as a phone background, and if you’d prefer the dark mode version of that let me know, I’ll send you a file. Happy day of loving yourself to all my Ace followers!

What happens with aroace coded characters in fandoms that really annoys me:
Frodo Baggins: never involved in a relationship, loves his friends — fandom: he’s so in love with Sam, he even lets him and his family live with him
Bilbo Baggins: never married, dedicates his life to writing, adopts Frodo and loves him like a son — fandom: I ship him with Thorin so much
Sherlock Holmes: dedicated his life to his work, very loyal to his friends, never married or had a real relationship — fandom: he’s in love with Irene! He’s in love with John!
Aziraphale & Crowley: canonically ace according to the book, poster characters for a qpr — fandom: why don’t they just f**k? Why don’t they just k**s? This is queerbaiting!
There are probably more examples because it’s definitely a pattern.

I've noticed a trend in ace related posts where everything needs to be an educational post about every possible experience but I think what we need to realize is people are posting from their individual experiences and thus won't likely fall under every category
I think we have a very hard time finding representation so we try to make any representation a catch all but that isn't always the answer and feels like punishing people for their experiences not checking every micro label box.
This isn't the most coherent post but I just wanted to possibly start this discussion
Like replying to a sex repulsed alloromantic ace's post about their own experience with "well actually some aces do have sex" or "some aces are aro too" doesn't accomplish anything but put down a person for their experience not being all encompassing. Rather than that maybe focus on creating posts or pushing for representation in media of the different experiences.

we stan an acearo king
(Image Description: A drawing of a cartoonish Scarecrow with the words “Love is in the air? Wrong! Fear Toxin” in the above and below text meme template style. He wears a gas mask and a large hat as he sprays fear toxin out of what looks like a spray paint can. The demisexual and aromantic flags are next to him in little hearts)

If you chose “Other,” you can put your idea in the tags or comments, but no pressure. Don’t worry about any problematic implications of these characters, this is just about the kind of characters you enjoy. This is just for fun, nothing serious! 🧡 🤍 💙

Ima be so real rn. I'm actually so sick and tried of radioapple shippers making the relationship sexual.
LIKE ALASTOR IS ACE. CANNONICALLY. EVEN IF MISS BOSS GIRL SAID IT WAS OKAY TO SHIP ITS NOT OKAY TO JUST DISREGARD THE FACT THAT ALASTOR IS FUCKING ASEXUAL. FUCK MAN.
I like the ship when it's like forced besties or maybe even sweet romantic (as far as I know Alastor isn't confirmed Aromantic, just Asexual, so from my knowledge it's possible. Not that he would cannonically want a relationship in the first place lol) kind of relationship. That stuff respects his identity.
But when you start making it sexual? What. The. FUCK. Just take representation and violate the character I guess, asshole.
Same thing with radiostatic, I prefer the one side version of it cuz well. It's cannon man. Like Vox is literally obsessed with Alastor and Alastor is just 😐. LMAO.
Anyways. Yeah. Stop taking representation just because you wanna draw porn. (I don't care if that's what you do, I have no problem with that. My problem is the character you use. LEAVE THE ASEXUALS ALONE FUCKING HELL.)

I want Alastor to learn what asexuality is so badly. Yes obviously 'cause of representation, but mainly just so he can start making a billion ace puns and jokes. Like you know Alastor, king of the dad jokes, would not pass that chance up

ACESPEC ORIGINAL CHARACTERS EVENT FOR ACE WEEK 2023!
Tumblr media
ACE WEEK is from 22nd to 28th October this year!! That's around the corner btw.
Back in the old Twitter days, I used to summon acespec creators to join me in a thread of their own acespec OCs with the goal of meeting more ace creators, their OCs, their projects and making friends! I thought it would be a great idea to bring the event to Tumblr this time... WITH NEW RULES!
So, during the ACE WEEK 2023, I want you to show the world your ACESPEC ORIGINAL CHARACTERS!
I want to see artwork of them, especially if it's made by you, and please add some cool info about them, it can be any silly detail, but I encourage you to talk about their asexuality and experiences, and it would be super interesting to know if your own asexuality affected the creation of the character. Tell us about their story, if they have any, and if they belong to a project you are working on. This will take place during the whole week, so no rush. I'll be reblogging pretty much everything with my side martaslavendergarden
RULES:
ABSOLUTE RESPECT. The asexual spectrum is full of different experiences, all valid. If I catch you trying to invalidate any creator or character, be sure I'll go John Wick. Also, I'm fucking tired of the invasion ace meme because I'm very punk and absolutely dislike any imperialist shit, so please, let's keep this event free of white supremacist shit. Thank you.
USE THE TAGS. Use the tags #acespecoc and #aceweek2023 so your post can be found!
LIKE AND REBLOG! This event's main goal is to find other acespec creators and not just make friends but also to create a cool community, so I encourage you to spread out your likes, cast reblogs and write some beautiful comments in the tags when reblogging.
Some questions you may have:
The identity of my OC is complex or tagless. SOUNDS COOL TO ME. Is their experience somewhere in the asexual spectrum? You can join the party and I encourage you to talk about it! I'm sure they'll be a super interesting character.
Marta, I have 500 acespec OCs. SAME. You can join all of the characters in one single post or make several of them and post them during the week, organise it yourself, no problemo.
Marta! I'm not an artist! But I have these cute picrews of my ace ocs. Can I participate in the event? ABSOLUTELY! Also, you can share the picrew you used just in case someone loves it and wants to make their OCs too.
Marta, I have this comic/book/whatever featuring my acespec OC. Can I unapologetically use this event to promote it? GO FOR IT.
Oh, Marta, I'm not acespec but I have this ace OC... Can I join the party anyway? THE MORE THE MERRIER! And I'm sure you'll learn a lot from other artists and their acespec OCs.
Marta, I have this ace headcannon of this particular character. Can I join the event? Not today, this event is only for YOUR ORIGINAL CHARACTERS created by yourself.
MARTA, I have this acespec OC I made in a videogame through character creation or whatever. Absolutely valid to me. Please provide a screenshot of your cutie and all their background story if you can.
I made this AI/NFTSHIT stuff. FUCK OFF.
Feel free to DM me if you have any doubts. Also, spread the word, I want to see many acespec OCs on Ace Week on this site!

WHEW Part one of Caro and John’s history and lore-dump. Obviously you can read more about them in depth in either of my webcomics Seemingly Dark and Mil-Liminal, but this has some stuff that isn’t addressed there so that’s fun! Exclusive content and you ain’t even have to be on my discord server. Part two coming some day, but not today. The formatting might be a bit awk because this was built for instagram but hopefully it’s alight, considering y’all were really the ones who asked for it haha.
Q’s below or in my ask box! Yes I love fan art, fan fics and cosplay PLEASE.
SDTRK is: You Had to Be There but the Mighty Mighty Bosstones in tradition of adding a song on my comic updates.
