Queer-platonic Relationship (do NOT read as romantic)
Fluffy n cute
Nothing is meant to sound or be s*xual (I am aroace and some stuff I say comes off that when I don't mean for it too)
Considering making a part 3
TW: Mention of cannibalism
PART 2
Alastor cooks for you
He listens to the radio while he does (I mean he is the radio demon-)
Has offered to let you try venison (raw) and demon (also raw)
You both give each other song recommendations (I like to think he enjoys most genres of music)
Dancing in the evenings as sunset peeks through the windows
He taught you a lot of dances (If you know how to dance, you taught him some as well)
Will sing to the songs he knows while you dance together
If you ask he might sing you to sleep
Has asked before if he could take a bite of your flesh (Again, he is a cannibal. But he respects you)
You take walks together
You try to find decent cafès or hole-in-the-wall restaurants to go to, this is usually difficult and most of the time you end up taking him to somewhere in cannibal town
He loves when you discuss music with him
You bash on Susan together
Alastor hates when you mention the “box faced man” that “seems to have a homoerotic crush on him” (your words, not his)
He gets all quiet and won’t look you in the eye when he is mad
He tries to distance himself and you take that as a sign to give him space to cool down
If he is just annoyed he will roll his eyes
But for you though, he doesn't seem to take the hint when you get annoyed or mad
This may cause you to give him the silent treatment (He understands at that point)
It’s a little unhealthy
You’ll learn to communicate better (he just might be a little.. difficult at times)
Like a true gentleman he will give your hand a kiss as a greeting
You both give each other forehead kisses
I like to think that he will just hold your hands randomly and play with your fingers
It’s cute
If you make him flustered he will lay his ears against his head
If you want to and play your cards right, he might let you cuddle together
A Request for help from the fellow aro writers (or Aros in general, idk)
So, a bit of background - I've recently come into my own aromanticism (which I kind of repressed because I thought my need for safety and comfort could only be fulfilled by a romantic relationship).
I'd like to be able to create a sense of safety and comfort for myself by writing, which I previously thought I did by forcing my characters into romantic relationships (even if I couldn't write those relationships well, or in a way that compelled me. I thought it was a skill issue, but I think it's more than that for right now).
I've written found family stuff as well, but I need help writing an aromantic character in order to accept myself, while still getting them safety and comfort outside of the traditional romantic relationship ending, which I really don't want, and as of now, writing stuff like that is making me feel worse.
So... a request for help: how do I write meaningful arcs for aro characters that don't feel like forced romances, or revolve around romance (considering my own situation and history of forcing myself to mask my lack or romantic attraction). I just want to write a safe fictional universe for myself, and I keep failing at it, and I feel really bad about it... so I was hoping someone else could help direct me to books/fanfics/ideas on how to write stuff that feels safe in the way I want myself to feel irl.
Sorry if it doesn't make sense.... and I'm open to questions? idk how to end this except if you decide to offer your input, I thank you.
Do Persephone or any of the god kids have mums/dads or is everyone half an orphan except Alicia
‘Half orphan’ lol
There will be more info on the other parents as the story progresses, but I can confirm to you right now that Aegis is the Zeus of the story; the man fucks
Where are my fellow aspec writers dealing with writing the sexy and the romantic? I know you're out there. I want to know what's your mental state while knee deep in The Human Weaknesses™. I want to know how you researched and how you elaborated. We all deserve to vent. As a treat.
I’m writing a short story about how a girl find out and accept she is aromantic. I am aromantic myself, but English is not my first language, anyone want to be a beta reader? Maybe an aromantic person?
You can text me on Instagram (raphael_del_rai) if you want, or discord (Raph#1290)
hey writers- if you're ever working on a story, and you hear a voice telling you to make all your characters aromantic, or polyamorous, or maybe even both, that's an angel talking. and you should listen
Being an aromantic writer is frustrating because you want to show aromantic people but you know damn well people would misinterpret their relationships as romantic and ship them, ignoring the orientation of them for aromantics like you to finally get more recognised within in or out of the community. It really says something that I know I have to be explicitly clear that these characters are aromantic and I don't want them shipped for people to even slightly get the message across.
No, love. Not every single character has to have a romantic partner to be interesting. It is okay for characters to end up alone. Or not have romantic experiences at all. No matter their sexuality. Aromantic and Asexual characters can exist and be a good representation of the queer community. Not only gay couples represent queer struggle.
do you have any tingler suggestions for an asexual and aromantic buckaroo?
YES BUD all preferred pounds are valid including NO POUND AT ALL and this is very important, as i am sure my aromantic and asexual buds know.
as a buckaroo who spends a lot of time fighting against gatekeeping i will use this as opportunity to say yet again ALL ARE WELCOME IN THE TINGLEVERSE ESPECIALLY MY ACE AND ARO BUCKAROOS.
in fact, after chucks upcoming horror novel CAMP DAMASCUS i have another horror novel coming out next year from same publisher called BURY YOUR GAYS (i am being secret about plot of for now but trust me tumblr buds will like this one) but one of the MAIN LEADS of 'bury your gays' is an asexual aromantic bud and she is such a fun character REALLY enjoyed writing her and i am excited for everyone to meet her.
ALRIGHT as far as tinglers go i have written MANY pound free books that you can enjoy, some are about an ace or aro way and some are about consent or saying NO THANKS BUD but they all do not have sex in them. the favorite of most buckaroos is probably ABSOLUTELY NO THOUGHTS OF POUNDING DURING MY FUN DAY WITH THIS KIND T-REX BECAUSE I'M AROMANTIC AND ASEXUAL AND THAT'S A WONDERFULLY VALID WAY OF PROVING LOVE IS REAL
if you are interested in whole collections there are paperbacks name of NOT POUNDED BY ANYTHING that you would probably enjoy. this series has three whole volumes just keep in mind not all characters in these bundle are ace and aro but MANY are. others just dont feel like a pound.
examples of stories that are more about consent and importance of HOLDING BOUNDARIES would be something like JUST KIND OF IGNORING THIS SAD LONESOME T-REX WHO IS SCREAMING "DEBATE ME" FROM HIS FOLDING CHAIR which is about how sometimes best way to deal with goofball conservative 'commentators' is just ignore their scoundrel whining as they moan their lonesome ways in the dark. so there are no pounds in that one just ignores. it is available as audiobook and so is ace aro story above too.
anyway buckaroo hope that helps. if you want to see full list you can look on chuck website and trot down to section of tinglers that says NO SEX
thank you for proving love is real in your own way i am SO GLAD our timelines have crossed it is an honor and i appreciate it very much. had fun time revisiting these books today and look forward to writing more for my asexual and aromantic buds. LOVE IS REAL
it is very important that we know that all of exim's lines are delivered in the most comically unbothered, emotionless voice, with a side of an unbreakably straight face.
