We don't talk about platonic marriages enough
I am bisexual. My partner is aroace. We are in a queerplatonic relationship. We have been together for around 4 years and got engaged a little over 2 years ago. We don't do romantic things (we do sometimes, but not usually.) and we don't do sexual things. There's no romance, but we love each other. It is 100% platonic.
But I ALWAYS feel the need to clarify this with people we meet that, it's not "oh haha we were best friends for so long we just decided to get married teehee"
NO
It's still love. We live for each other. We would die for each other. We are attached at the hip. We are each others most important thing in the entire world. Just because we don't kiss or have sex doesn't mean it's not love.
I LOVE my fiance in ways words can't explain. And they love me just the same.
Just because it's not romantic doesn't make it any less of a relationship.
Just because it's not sexual doesn't make us any less engaged.
I am going to marry my fiance, my best friend, the love of my life, and I need people to know that it's not because we couldn't find anyone else. It's not because we said we would if we were still single at X years old. It's not a trend or a phase or anything like that.
I'm going to marry them because I LOVE them.

(update since this is gaining traction again: we're married now!! :D)

My queerplatonic partner is the strongest person I know and being with him helps me feel strong too. His arms are home and his hugs are safety. And the best part is I know he finds his strength and home and safety with me too.

with / without roses
not sure exactly what to call this. yellow marriage? it's a flag for queerplatonic marriage, i.e. a qpr where the two(+) partners consider themselves to be married, platonically. using the yellow rose as a famous symbol of friendship and platonic love. a person in a qpm (queerplatonic marriage) may call their partner a qps/qpw/qph (queerplatonic spouse, wife, husband) or just a spouse, wife or husband

As a community, we need to bring back queerplatonic relationships. Yeah, they're married. Maybe one of them is aroace and sex repulsed, maybe they hate eachother. Maybe they're both father figures to the same kid and they have to deal with it. Maybe the most logical situation is to just marry eachother and get it over with.

I know we collectively agree that Hiccup isn’t romantically inclined, and his getting married and having kids didn’t make sense in the epilogue, but consider: Hiccup getting married for political reasons.
It’s a marriage of alliance, which is recognized both by him and his partner, and they enter it without expectations of romantic involvement. Since they’re now married, they live in the same castle, spend time together, and Hiccup finds he really likes his spouse. They’re funny, get along with his friends, and has the same interests and values. They both probably speak multiple languages. She understands why Hiccup is so dedicated to making the Wilderwest better, and holds similar views. She’s a good politician (her job after all, was to be an ambassador). Hiccup likes spending time with them, and the feeling is mutual. They’re not in love, they have their own lives, but they’re dedicated to each other and eventually decide to raise children. They teach their kids how to train hawks and hunt with dragons, riding, history, the Languages, and all the necessary skills of their world. They’re not in love and they’re happy together.
#pushing the aromantic hiccup agenda and also the queerplatonic agenda#as much as the idea of hiccup getting married was always a little off to me it was more the romantic angle#which I why I like the idea of a marriage of alliance and a partner who understands that#and then of course the montage of them being a good team and getting along#and going ‘yeah I like this person. I think this is the person I want to spend my life with.’#also a) a lot of arranged political marriages did have the foreign spouse function as an ambassador#b) polyglot hiccup is canon and I think it would be neat if his spouse was as well. it is a marriage alliance after all.#she isn’t from the small area of berm#(actually give all the Vikings regional accents. I think it’s neat)#c) she/they because I didn’t feel firmly about the partner’s gender and the nords were pretty gender diverse#anyway I think the partner would probably be fond of the library and admire hiccup got it open way back when#get along with Fishlegs and camicazi well enough#and enjoy dramatic stories of their adventures. maybe have some of her own#also: normalize people having their own lives outside their partners. hiccup and they are happy together but also have their own friends#oh and you know hiccup would be a great dad. he loves Stoick but he would so much be the dad he wished he had growing up#are the kids bio related? are they adopted (cast off and No Names)? who knows!#I could build in my head what hiccup’s spouse is like but I’ll leave it here#they exist as we construct them#httyd#httyd books#my post#book!hiccup#hiccup the third#hiccup horrendous haddock iii#book hiccup

I finally did the proper thing and bought some Aspec books! This is the second of my haul and I just got done reading it! I've seen posts about it here on Tumblr and when I saw my bookstore had it, I had to get it! We gotta support our aspec creators!
So first off, it's great. It's funny, there's lots of chemistry, and it's sweet. The second volume has a theme I really appreciate and it's the fact that THIS is what it's like to have queer friends! The comfort, the lack of worry about crushes, being able to open up about huge important parts about yourself that they would understand or at least feel a bit of relation to, it's just so good.
And showing Gakurouta getting jealous of Momo-kun, not because he's secretly in love with Yuriko, but because he cares about her and wants to keep being close to her and doesn't want their relationship to end because she found a intimacy with someone else, just, chefs kiss! Cause I feel that all the time, and it's also so nice to have it be allo person feeling it instead of a Aspec person-- it feels like a turn of the trope. Also...Gakurouta feels demiromantic to me, he so reads demiro, like, read it yourself guys, the way he describes his attraction to Sousuke??? Anyway
Also, like, Yuriko being happy that her two boys are getting along and becoming individual friends feels so good. The blush on her cheeks when she thinks about it. She's so me. It's a short and beautiful moment. Also the FUCINF CAKE REFERENCE OMG THEY HAD TO PUT A DESERT ANALOGY TO ASEXUALITY HUH
Also like, the brief mentioning of fujoshi culture.. it's good that they brought it up cause I really thought they were gonna skip past it, even if it was just a short bit.
So glad Japan has so many stranger to friends to roommate Aspec stories: Is Love the Answer, Koisenu Futari, Sukiyaki Tonight (which is the newest one), and now I've read this: I Want To Be A Wall. I can't wait for the next volume!
@kyanitedragon shouting you out cause I'm pretty sure I've heard about most of these through you! Thank you for your service 🙏

Hello! A few writing beans have returned from the war, but the words are still being stubborn. Anywho, have a snippet of you're where I wanna go (prev snippets here)
After three days on the train, Buck is ready to be almost anywhere else. Even if that place has a temperature that’s barely above freezing. He’ll deal with that in exchange for being able to move around for more than a few feet. To breathe crisp fresh air that isn’t tinged with thick, black smoke from a steam engine. 
He tries not to think about Lucy’s meaningful, almost knowing glances as they rolled past miles and miles of wheat fields, through small no name towns. Like she could somehow read his memories. And if she could, how she might see the flashbacks of a younger, more naïve version of himself boarding a different train, ready to discover who he was.  Some days he wonders, if he could go back in time, would he step off that same Philadelphia platform to see where it took him. Would he willingly go, knowing he would never be the same in the best and worst possible ways. The answer, of course, is always yes.  His body vibrates with anticipation as he steps out of the heated car and into a frigid Chicago day. The chill sinks into his skin and lungs, biting at his cheeks as he extends a gloved hand to Lucy. She takes it easily and he hopes they look as natural to the outside world. That nothing in their body language betrays them or causes anyone to suspect otherwise. As if one of the baggage porters or a police officer could sense him fretting internally and instantly recognize them as a fraud.  “You coming, Buckley?” Lucy murmurs, tugging him along.  Buck nods, shaking off his nerves and follows, able to relax slightly when he sees every uniformed employee busy with luggage and passengers. Ultimately it reminds him of their own bags and trunks to account for before checking into their hotel. Ever since he made the reservation, Buck has been excited about staying in The Palmer House hotel. The original, built as a wedding gift from the owner to his new bride, was destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire a mere thirteen days after its grand opening. Undeterred, the owner had it rebuilt, ready for the public just two years later. Plenty of new structures have risen since then, but Palmer House is still supposed to be the grandest hotel in the area.

maybe im too much of a loveless aromantic but sometimes i think marriages should actually be heavily built on trust, respect, shared goals and responsibilities while love mayhaps could just be the icing on the cake and entirely optional.

Don't you understand. If I get a queerplatonic partner one day, I want a queerplatonic "marriage" but you could barely even call it a "marriage". It would be more like. A platonic ceremony. Nothing official, so it wouldn't even be an official marriage, because fuck the marriage institution. I want this to be the most chaotic, confusing ceremony ever. The whole thing would be a go to hell to the relationships norms.
It would be like. A small ceremony. With the Anne With An E flower party aesthetic, ykwim? I want NONE of these wedding aesthetic. Just... A GIANT cake, that'll be the closest thing ressembling a wedding. And flowers everywhere because I love flowers, but flowers of all kind. Multicolored. Decoration theme is flowers and stars. Because it's cool.
Not too many guests, just a few, close people to us, because there's no way I'm gathering a full social event. Fuck off "guests have to be classy but not too much to not outshine whatever". I want everyone to get their fanciest, most extravagant outfits. Theme is victorian-pirate-steampunk-medieval. I want cloaks/capes, vintage dresses, top hats, pirate shirts, everything. And everyone will get a free colorfull flowercrown.
Me and QPP are wearing the biggest, most giant flowercrowns. I'm wearing the fanciest medieval cape ever.
We do vows, but like. We say so many romance spiteful things. Like. Promise we'll never downgrade this relationship to romance. But also things like. Promising to be queerplatonic partners and best friends for life (reminder that queerplatonic and best friends aren't the same, but if I get a QPP they'll probably also be my best friend, so both at the same time, because I'm like that) etc.
Instead of wedding rings, we exchange friendship bracelets.
There's an officer, just for the sake of it, even tho it's not an official thing - so it could just be anyone really. They have to wear a fancy costume too of course. And at the end they'll say "I declare you... Best friends forever." (It would be more appropriate to say queerplatonic partners or something, but this is funnier.)
And then. Instead of kissing, even in the case we wouldn't mind kissing, we fistbump. Just because it's funny.
