with being valentine's day and asexuality trending, there is something I've wanted to say to fellow hazbin stans and alastor simps' (myself included), as an aroace: it's okay if you shipp him with anyone. other characters, your ocs, yourself, what have you
it's okay if you want to write or read smut with alastor, it's okay if you want to draw or see him naked or in lingerie. it's okay if you want to see him flirting and making sexual innuendos or what not
you are NOT invalidating his asexuality or aromanticism. you are NOT offending asexuals, aromantics or aroaces. you are NOT being acephobic or arophobic. you are NOT being a bigot if you like alastor in any sort of sexual situation.
if you take anything from this post, just let it be this: have fun. you don't need anyone's permission to shipp him (or any other character, in any other media) with anyone else. the scenarios you create in your head or with a bunch of friends will not interfere with the series canon, where - as of season one release - he's a canon aroace character with no interest in a romantic or sexual relationship with anyone. that won't change anything. at the end of the day, canon is one thing and fanon is another, different thing.
do what you want with alastor! like any fictional character, he's your little play thing to do whatever you want. you are only borrowing him from the creator and making a slightly, different version of him to fit your personal tastes. it's not hurting or offending anyone.
draw him in lingerie. in sexual scenarios. as a sex worker. as someone with a high libido. as a hypersexual. write him in anything you want, with whoever you want. it's free real estate
