!!!CONTENT WARNING!!! Depression 💀 Just... pure depression 💀 Also, long post, a 14-page long post 💀
You have been warned. Enjoy your treat 😌
Summer heat melted my brain, so I chose (fictional) violence 💀
Inspired by a discussion with @beannoss/@nossbean about spyboy and his sense of usefulness. And the musebunny did what the musebunny did best and kicked this idea into my brain and demanded it be done first 💀
every time i see an aroace character they are either
emotionally constipated robot with the colour palette of wet cement
ancient immortal being who has transcended humanity entirely
clinically miserable in a way the narrative quietly links to their lack of romance
“above” love because they are cold, detached, hyperlogical, inhuman, traumatized, or secretly broken
literally coded grey. like physically grey. ash coloured. stone textured. dressed like a thundercloud.
what happened to whimsy. where is the aroace person who is loud and annoying and overinvested in niche hobbies. where is the aroace girl who collects stickers and screams during mario kart. where is the aroace guy who gossips constantly and wears tacky hawaiian shirts. where is the aroace knight who loves people so violently and devotedly that it reshapes the political structure of the narrative but simply does not want to kiss anybody about it.
i am once again asking writers to understand that aroace does not mean “devoid.” it does not mean empty. it does not mean tragic failed human approximation. it does not mean your most emotionally repressed character automatically counts as representation because he looked vaguely uncomfortable during a flirting scene once.
some of us are joyful. some of us are dramatic. some of us are deeply affectionate. some of us are extroverts. some of us flirt for fun. some of us hate flirting. some of us want queerplatonic partnerships so intense they would make victorian poets pass out in the street. some of us just want to live in a little house with three friends and six cats and a complicated board game collection (okay maybe that ones just me)
and FOR THE LOVE OF GOD let aroace characters have colour.
give me aroace characters in bright greens and obnoxious oranges and jewel tones. let them be warm. let them be expressive. let them laugh too loudly. let them love their friends openly. let them be desired without the story “fixing” them through romance. let them exist without a magical One Person unlocking their capacity for humanity through heterosexual eye contact.
also can we stop acting like romance is the sole narrative mechanism through which a character becomes emotionally fulfilled. there are other forms of intimacy. there are entire emotional ecosystems outside of dating. friendship can alter the course of a life. loyalty can become sacred. companionship can become world-defining. community can save somebody. devotion does not require romantic subtext to matter.
i want aroace characters whose stories are not about absence.
i want presence.
presence in friendships. presence in ambition. presence in loyalty and ritual and identity and grief and humour and obsession and joy. i want aroace characters who are alive in every conceivable direction instead of written like someone removed romance from a regular character and forgot to fill the empty space with humanity.
STOP MAKING US GREY.
unless the character is grey for unrelated reasons. in which case i expect equal opportunity coloration. make the allosexuals grey too.

Like till, I think Luka would have some hallucination form of Hyuna that’s wrong. However, unlike how Ivan haunts Till, Luka’s Hyu-cination comforts him. Hyuna’s death forced Luka to realize the gravity of his actions toward her and hyun-woo. She had forced him to open his eyes to what he had done. She died to inflict the pain of losing someone you love like he had inflicted onto her all those years ago in Anakt garden. Forced out of his ignorant bliss, this and losing his place on the stage for years (the only place he could ever feel in control) definitely left him broken. The looks he was praised for are marred with burns and scars both from the explosion and probably self inflicted. The only person who had ever loved him had died to teach him a cruel lesson. And to top it all off he was stuck with his groomer, forced to rely on him both physically and mentally. At this point, he would definitely hallucinate the only person who had ever showed him true love, Hyuna. But why would he ever hallucinate her true self, which would only force him to acknowledge what he’d done even more. That hurts. In my opinion, he would conjure one that almost babies him, one he can indulge in. We all know Luka age regresses to cope so I think she would tie into that. I also think she would almost coax him into death like he wants. The real Hyuna wants him to live with love, but he can’t. So, the Hyu-cination indulges him and goes with what he wants, encourages it even. She approves of his self harm and suicidal idealization, wanting him to join her in death.
When consuming media, I think we should always be careful not to forget that our characters have agency.
🐎
I often see people feel the need to pity-party their favourite character (or real person) rather than accept that there are issues with that character/person that are fundamentally morally-incorrect, cruel or wrong — yet is part of who they are at that point.
Naturally, no one wants to support a bad person. But having flaws doesn't make you or them, a bad person (necessarily)... Just a person.
We have complex brains and I think to an extent consciousness comes with the acceptance of hypocrisy in life.
Example: I care about the planet, I still drive my car. I know driving my car is bad for the environment and I know I'd be healthier if I walked. Now, I could dive into logical reasons why driving my car could make me morally correct in some situations. But I can also just let you think I'm lazy, because I am in fact a lazy person. Sometimes my laziness makes me a bad person, but sometimes I'm just lazy and that's who I am. Maybe I'll change. Or maybe not.
I see people feel the need to raise a character's awful past or the fact they were manipulated and so they can't help who they are or deserve leniency for their actions. I completely disagree.
I think we should see a symptom and consider treatment, not simply observe the surface,
The horse only limps because he fell.
In fact,
the horse should rest, because he fell.
Now obviously you could take that character and make them a victim but it doesn't wipe the fact that they're also a perpetrator [of something].
The horse is lame because he fell. He should rest, because he's causing the herd to slow down by soldiering on.
Look at Twilight and Yor, both have a sad backstory, potentially have a form of PTSD and are both brainwashed by their ideology. But do not forget they are both adults with agency. Twilight recognises what he is doing to Yor and Anya is wrong, he tries to soften this by "protecting them" or doing good things for them. He knows it's wrong [ Minor spoiler] because of how he considers ending Strix [ End of spoiler]. But his ideology, the benefit of continuing outweighs the fact he is lying to them, will abandon them and worst: could put them under the scrutiny of a cruel, authoritarian state should he be caught. I argue, he's so confident in himself that he has an inflated ego, let's see if this comes to bite him.
With Yor, I think she's pretty inbedded in her ideology that she doesn't see murder as inherently wrong if it can be waved away with: Garden told me the target was evil, so it's okay.
I hope to see her suffer with her ideology in the future.
(Character's relationship with death is endlessly fascinating to me.)
But we shouldn't forget that both of these people, these adults, are now affecting a child (even unwittingly).
Anya is depicted as being indifferent to death, even in front of her. She has a fascination with facing danger, hitting other people, lying and exaggerating and finds not only grievous wounds exciting but hiding them from family or care and marching on with them to be something expected (Yor's poor butt to be clear).
Some of this is just that she's a child; some is her environment, adults and peers grooming her ideology. Naturally it will change as life affects her; this is how life is.
Now obviously Spy X is a comedy and there will always be hyperbole with anime that readers/viewers need to parse what is actually occuring and what is just decorated exaggeration for effect.
I'm just trying to point it out that we should be wary of handwaving or trying to cover up moral dilemmas with blankets of "but they were traumatised". It's interesting and can be fun to just accept that a character may have a moral hypocrisy (and doesn't necessarily reflect on you as the reader or viewer).
I often say that "[name] is a terrible person, but a fantastic character". Because you can like an awful character for the writing and portrayal that brings life in to them, while acknowledging that things they do are incongruent with your own moral compass.
I often find it very interesting with the discourse of dislike for Katsuki Bakugou in MHA, as well as the love people have for him. There is often arguement that because he suicide baited Izuku earlier on in the story, he is a terrible person and a bully. But people who love him will consider that he is changed.
And I often see that people cannot accept that Bakugou is a bully, who does inflict his foul temper on others. But he is capable of change, has done amazing and admirable things and has come along way while also needing to continue becoming better.
Horikoshi submitted regret in writing the suicide bait, but I think it's actually made the character incredibly intriguing, it's a shame some people cannot accept that awful actions cannot be regretted and learned from.
I actually don't like Bakugou as a person, I still think he's an asshole but I also think he's a great character and fantastically written.
Just because I dislike him as aperson does not mean I do not understand him either. I just don't like him.
As a side note there's a great episode of Recess where TJ desperately seeks the affection of another boy, but in the end the boy says: "I just don't like you and I have no reason, I just don't". Sometimes people are incompatible. That's okay.
The role of author is to consider your perfect world, or your belief system, and challenge your characters with it.
As audience and viewers, I think our role is to accept the challenge and consider it, do we agree with it? Disagree with it? Did it change our mind?
But with that in mind, whether true story or fiction, stories are meant to be enjoyed, they are an escape. A lot of characters give us much comfort and I do understand the desire to not sully that comfort.
So while I say this, it's a personal view and not instruction.
Sorry for the ramble.
The horse was lame. He soldiered on, telling no one. The herd slowed to accompany him, some continued ahead and left them all behind.
His remaining companions were lost to wolves. The horse did not realise until he was alone, that if he'd just rested, they would have all survived.
Becoming prey too did not bring comfort after that conclusion. It did not matter that he fell, It was too late to change and after all hungry wolves don't ask why.
I love the thought of not only the lines between 'twilight' and 'Loid' blurring, but also Twilight feeling like Loid is taking over. Like Loid is infecting him. Twilight goes on an infiltration mission and while playing a whole different person, wears that sweater that Yor likes. A target asks him if he has kids and he says yes before thinking. During a mission debrief he starts wondering how he could better help a particular patient. He completes a mission sloppily because be wants to finish faster since he promised to read anya a bedtime story.
And every single time he notices it happening he gets angry with himself, and a little scared at how easily he is losing himself to 'Loid'
now more than ever, please vet gofundmes before you donate.
copy and paste descriptions into google to see if there are scam accounts reusing the same story, check to see if there are any images/updates on the fund with faces. go to the original blog, check if the post asking for help is only an hour old, or even less than that. refrain from donating if all it links to is a PayPal account, without any further confirmation of identity.
it’s horrible to say but it’s never been a better time for scam artists to exploit your generosity, when things seem so dire, and I’ve donated to campaigns before only to realise later that the entire story was stolen from an actual family in need. due diligence might take a few more minutes out of your day but at least you won’t be sending money to an opportunistic scumbag.

Obviously Anya is adopted. We all know this. She knows this. She loves her family but knows it is incredibly fragile.
But unlike most adoption stories (say Natsume Yuujinchou) Anya is not adopted into a loving functional family who's main goal is to support and love her until she heals from all the hurt she has been through.
Because Everyone in their family is adopted.
Yor enters thinking she is entering an existing family dynamic of a man and his daughter. She is the step mother, eagerly wanted but a definite outsider. She does not know about how they lost Loid's first wife. They both Never mention her but Anya clearly has Huge feelings about her Mommy that she cannot touch. Because Loid refuses to acknowledge her. Which means she's not allowed to.
She's a wife brought in to solve a problem. The fact she adores Anya and loves Loid (eventually) doesn't make her any less of an outsider from her perspective. To Yor she's the adopted family member.
Meanwhile Loid, the one who brought them all together almost instantly finds himself on the outside of the family. He works too much and doesn't make it home for dinner frequently. He struggles to connect with his 'daughter' and wife. Can't understand either of them despite constant efforts. Something incredibly distressing for him.
Yor instantly connects with this child when he struggled to hold her hand in public. In his eyes Yor and Anya are a family and he is the outsider only there for the mission. The man who is destined to Not be there. He too often fills the role of the outside child brought into a happy family. One he constantly feels he is fumbling or failing. (If I'm not good, if i'm not perfect- my family will leave me. So I have to be. I have to figure out how to be better)
They are a family of adopted members all holding so tightly to each other. Each one of them chooses the others over and over again. Struggles against their own limitations and fears to be a part of a family they're all terrified to really call their own.
But it is that choice that makes them a family. Not blood or marriage or any certificate. That they all keep trying to be a family to the others. I'll be a good girl and study hard Papa. I'll be a good wife, I'll play my role well so don't abandon me. I'll be a good father and husband, I will try to be a good husband and father if you both will just stay with me. Please. I will figure out how.
