I hope this is not a weird question but i'm curious: how would the ROs feel about a mc that's aromantic and doesn't have romantic feelings for them but still generally loves/cares about them (maybe even feels visual/sexual attraction for them) and wants to be in a relationship with them anyways?
Not a weird question at all!
Nico I think is down for that kind of queer platonic kind of relationship. Who’s to dictate the quantities of love anyway? Just because it is non-romantic doesn’t lessen the importance or value they’d have for what you two would share.
Fatima is someone who is casual with her love, she gives it softly and easily, maybe not wholly, but certainly there, and this goes for any relationship the mc is willing to have with her. She’s accepting, and so long as everything is communicated well, she’s game :D
Isla would honestly feel…. almost relieved? This isn’t to say that their romantic relationship is fraught or anything like that, just that romance, to them, has a lot of strings attached. There are eggshells to walk on, they’re cautious about it, wary, so entering a relationship without romance expected of them? It’s new, they’re still cautious, a relationship is a relationship and comes with all different kinds of caveats even without romance on the table but… this could be nice.
Danny’s been around the block and I wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve had qp relationships before. They’re a lot like Fatima in that they give their love easily but different in the sense that they give it a lot more wholly. They’re enthusiastic about connecting with people regardless of romantic intent, they just want to love and indulge and romantic feelings don’t need to be on the table for them to enjoy a relationship. They’re just pleased as punch as per the usual XD
