so what is it with people being incapable of talking about, thinking about, raising awareness for aromanticism without bringing up asexuality. why are we acting as if aromanticism is just some special status buff for aces

Hi hello I have a question for the Six of Crows fanartists*, if anyone happens to see this and wants to answer
*for the purposes of the question, this means literally anyone who's drawn Kaz using his cane (specifically as a mobility aid, not a weapon) at least once, even if you've never shared it
(But also if anyone wants to ramble about any aspect of their art or artmaking process regardless of if it relates to this please feel free to do so I love when people to talk about the things they enjoy)
Ok anyway on to the question: How do y'all decide on the direction Kaz holds his cane?
Because I've noticed some art shows him holding it the typical way --- so the long part of the handle (the beak of the crow skull/head) points behind him --- but a lot of pieces show him holding it like… flipped around? Backwards from the typical hold? I'm not sure how best to "label" it, but it would have the beak (long part of the handle) pointing forward/in front of him, instead of behind
(I think I've also seen some where he holds it sideways?? But I can't actually find any now so I might be wrong on that)
Anyway I'm just curious since it seems to be fairly mixed as to which one an artist or individual artwork uses
EDIT for clarification, in case anyone sees this without my reblog: there's nothing wrong with drawing the backwards hold!!** You can use a cane this way and many of us do at least sometimes; it has a different feel (at least it does to me) but it's absolutely useable with both the typical and ''backwards'' grip. This wasn't meant to be a criticism of accuracy or anything, I genuinely am just curious :)
**disclaimer that I don't know if it works with every type of walking cane/style of handle, but it does with the style I use and I feel like every design of Kaz's cane and the handle that I've seen is pretty similar in shape, so

care to share more on how you understand narancia and mista now? i’ve been here throughout you trying to understand them and i love to hear your thoughts
Not them necessarily but the dynamic that I created in my brain that intrigued me so
So my initial dynamic was; they're close in a diff way than just bros. Narancia is aro-ace and Mista is anything but. Somehow their relationship makes sense even though they're like opposites. But how??.
Me now? Shit dude labels do not fuckin matter. Romantic? Platonic? Family and found family and friends?? None a that shit matters any more than exactly what you want it to.
What I've been into lately is, if you love someone, thassit. No explanation needed because some things aren't for words. I am a believer in Mista and Narancia having a sort of bond that doesnt have a title because its unique; Narancia puts the most emphasis on friendship so Mista is a Best Friend, Mista puts an emphasis on romance and family so Narancia is a Beloved Found Family Member (non-familial, found family ain't the same as biological family). Its wildly different understandings of each other but the thing is they love each other just as much so it doesn't matter. Who give a shit? The Popo? Society? Neither of them adhere to any rules but Brummo's and their own so they just do whatever and get an understanding. And no one needs to know what's up, not even them, because how could you summarise human emotion anyway? Live and vibe and love each other the best you can.

actually while im feeling sad about stupid bullshit (not being popular anymore oh woe is me) lets take a little summary of atbb's pre-hiatus inbox
someone trying to roleplay as sans because they didnt look at the blog for more than two seconds
someone saying the skeletons are cute and asking to hug them
someone asking to be friends with [Enter Skeleton Here]
someone asking what their brothers are like
How are you?
You're cute!
You're cool!
How have you been?
Nice outfit!
Nice outfit!
Nice outfit!
Nice outfit!
someone who does not understand the concept of dramatic irony who wants very badly to explain the full plot so far to characters who would never know that in any context otherwise as if that wouldnt be lame as hell for them to suddenly know
why is [thing that was a very big plot point]
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN
YOU'RE CUTE
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN

been reading star rail fics bc that's what i do when i enter a new fandom and it's so funny to me how out of the three protags the pov character always makes such a big deal of not remembering their past, between the three of them they can't piece together one coherent memory older than their time on the express why are they always so worried about what the other two think of their lack of knowledge about themselves they should be sitting together in an amnesiac support group
