#aro hc

see, i’ve been spreading that propaganda for so long. i’ll say more, arospec lonelyeyes. (apologies in advance, i am a little insane about them...)

i can't imagine those two expressing any romantic feelings towards each other at all. they have a very specific type of connnection going on there but their relationship is incredibly aromantic coded to me. or at least arospec.

peter is a yearner big time (duh) but he mostly doesn’t understand romance and he doesn’t think of jonah as his romantic partner. he will call jonah his companion, lover, sometimes his husband (when they are not divorced lmao), but never the love of his life. he is attached to jonah (as much as a lonely avatar can be) and he has certain fondness for him, he’s drawn to him. but love? he knows there’s no actual romantic love there. not on jonah's side, not on his side. perhaps different kinds of feelings are present, but never the “you’re the love of my life” one. i actually don’t think peter had ever thought he was capable of feeling like that, of loving someone romantically. the concept itself is too foreign for him. most of peter’s feelings for jonah really can be described by i don’t know what you’re doing to me but i like it, i like being close to you, and i’m scared what it means. because he knows whatever jonah is to him always goes against the forsaken. there is no way to be close to jonah without going against his god. and peter is well aware of that fact. i've seen someone here say peter probably gets weaker every time he lets himself get closer to jonah and he has to spend a significant amount of time away from him to feel better again. i really like that hc. i also think peter is really disconnected from his feelings in general because he numbs them so often.

jonah on the other hand knows romance is just not something he is interested in. he doesn’t feel romantic attraction, he could even be repulsed by the idea of romance. but it's important to point out that not experiencing romantic attraction does not automatically imply the person doesn't experience any other kind of attraction/feelings in general either. and so as much as it pisses him off, what jonah does crave is connection. he feels extremely alone sometimes (at the same time, he doesn’t want to get close to anyone because, well, everyone will leave him eventually) and he absolutely hates it. good lord, why must humans be social creatures? why can’t i stand the lack of attention? it is not very convenient to get invested in a relationship despite his clear lack of that kind of attraction. hence his partnership with the man whose whole thing is his love for solitude. at some point jonah finds out physical intimacy can be a fantastic way to temporarily take care of his needs. and he totally takes advantage of that fact.

lonelyeyes may (sometimes) be an old married couple but ultimately, they don't do any romance. mind you, they don't want it. they work well together because they are just both aware of each other's needs and desires and their little arrangement fulfills them.

they love to fuck around making stupid bets and causing chaos (chaos is an understatement but you get the point). they love to argue for the sole purpose of getting each other riled up. it’s their love language. oh peter wants to be alone? too bad, i’ll pay him a visit and annoy him all day. as a treat. jonah is going to prison? hell yeah dude finally some peace and quiet. i’m throwing a party that i’m not gonna attend, he’s gonna watch.

getting married and divorced 17 times a year out of pettiness? why not! mind you they prolly have a nice fear snack tormenting all the people involved in the legal aspect of it every time.

and don’t even get me started on the homoerotic tension between those two. jonah magnus the manwhore you are. getting a kick out of teasing a lonely avatar and making sure he feels perceived and seen at the same time giving your patron dinner. truly poetic. and peter lukas not being able to resist that evil twink. annoying but hot, the audacity.
