#aromantic things

.Claiming characters that are known to date frequently or have a long history of romantic relationships as aromantic is one of my favourite pastimes.

.I think people should be allowed to throw stones at the heads of those who insist that close friendships between men and women don’t exist without consequences. .And while we’re at it, same thing for those that claim a romantic relationship without sex is simply a friendship. .I want you tied up to a light pole and tomato-ed.

Thinking about Marc Spector and Superhero!Reader being in an alterous dynamic. You wreak havoc on missions, heal each other in the aftermath. Cold efficiency laced with a fondness that shows itself only when no eyes are left to see you. Nobody's quite sure what it is— friendship? Romance? Camaraderie or obligation? Oh, but they're fools to label it— because this feeling is yours alone to guard and name— like a home.

.That guy gets no bitches. .Slash positive. .In parentheses: Good for him. .Hashtag Aromantic.

you ever just realize your childhood crush was actually just you being platonically close to a person and not knowing how to express it properly bc you were never taught how to just have friends

.The pain of coming across a fanfiction with all the right tags and an interesting premise, just for the characters I believe are aromantic in my heart to be shipped. .Then it’s a question of whether I want to risk my sanity or not.
