✦You were in music class, Mister Demi was trying to get Zip to hand the beer over and go sit down…Zip was stubborn and not listening…Then suddenly all hell broke loose, some kids were fighting, others were playing swords with the violin (Omori reference) bows…Oliver was pushing and taunting Abbie..The poor boy was crying, but then again he always cries…Edward was throwing and making paper planes. One of the planes landed on the case of your instrument. No matter what this boy did you still loved him.
Even though everything he did show he didn't love you (denial is a river in Egypt) , you never gave up on trying to earn his love. You won every championship to impress him, you tried your hardest to give him gifts that you knew he would like, you tried everything…You still weren't ready to give up on earning his love, you knew that it would take awhile but you would wait as many years and months to feel his warm embrace…As long as there's still life in you, you will try to impress him into loving you.
After a while the chaos stopped, Mister Demi had a panic attack and went home early…You were eating lunch when a paper plane hit your head and on it, it said “OPEN ME” in blue marker it came from Edward…When you open it, the message says “MEET ME AT THE ABANDONED CLASSROOM, B7”...Anyone else would have seen this as a red flag but you didn't…
You just thought it was another chance to make Edward like you more. You could hear Edward, Zip, and Oliver talking
“Zip, give the fucking beer! You way too drunk!” “Nuh-’hic uh, I am n-not-‘hic’ d-drunk” “Ugh, I told you not to! You dumbass” “I- ‘hic’ dont give a-‘hic’ damn”....
Zip was drunk off her ass and it's hilarious but Zip couldn't keep quiet so she got sent to the principal's office and got sent home.
🍰🍓🎸[TIMESKIP]🍰🍓🎸
It was after school and you were making your way through the halls and into B7…..There Edward was leaning on the wall with his arms crossed…He had a grin, that very same grin you fell in love with. In his hands was a bouquet of 1Heliotropes and an origami swan…
Edward was staring at you with a 2enamored look. You finally found the courage to speak up. “Uhm, so Edward why’d you want to meet me here?” You were avoiding eye contact
“I just wanted to tell you something”
he stopped leaning at walked closer to you…He handed you the bouquet and the origami swan, and you were dumbfounded…you never would have thought that Edward would gift you something or even look your way other than to tease you…
“I just wanted to say, I love you [Name]”
(I like this a bunch)
1: Heliotropes are a sign of eternal love
2: Enamored means feeling filled with love

hi!! i know u talk a lot about aromanticism a lot on here, but i don’t think i’ve ever seen u talk about aromantic anthy. would u mind discussing/elaborating on it or linking to a post where u do because i’m very curious!!
i got a similar ask half a year ago or something ridiculous like that on my main blog, but i’d like to really do justice to my url right now and explain it in more concrete terms.
i will say, it’s important to bear in mind that this reading of anthy’s character is very much informed by my own experiences, and a lot of those experiences are ones im not keen to talk in depth about. but you know. let’s make some nebulous gestures towards ideas of being traumatised, being autistic, struggling to meaningfully connect with others and honestly not really wanting to do such because of how they treat you.
like ive previously said, an aromantic perspective on the world would, i think, really benefit anthy. when youve lived your whole life experiencing violence at the hands of these patriarchal structures, of which romance is absolutely one, it’s kinda like. damn. im uncomfortable buying into those ideas.
anthy also has this lovely line in ep 19 where she says to utena ‘romance either happens or it doesn’t’ and it’s just sooooooo. so very interesting to me, actually, that anthy would say something so black and white about ‘romance’, a topic that anthy knows better than a lot of rgu characters is hopelessly confused and arbitrary and often enabling violence. and utena (fellow aromantic gaybo) says 'yeah, i know, but...'. these simplifications, these elisions. what is and isn't articulated. but what? maybe things are much more complicated than we'd like to think.
anyway enough of that tangent. one thing i as a trans and aromantic person always return to when discussing trans and aromantic readings of characters/texts more broadly is that there's no singular piece of evidence that can really cement these readings as Undeniable. it's like. okay. there's a critique of romance as a patriarchal structure in revolutionary girl utena. there's an ambiguity about anthy's feelings towards characters like utena, where there is clearly a queer connection but it takes shape in unconventional and complex ways. me, i'm aromantic, i see all of these pieces and i go oh well that's because she's an aromantic lesbian. you know, there's plenty of little moments i can evidence but those moments can be used to argue for an alloromantic lesbian anthy too. romance is a very arbitrary thing and i think everyone should take their own approach to it unapologetically. of course, mine is that it's hellish and i want nothing to do with it, but im just one guy. and im okay with that. i feel strongly about this reading and it is personal, and id be dishonest to say otherwise, but i do also find that it's well-evidenced in the text. as one of my lecturers once said, don't worry about authorial intent, it isn't real <3

I think narratively El has to say I love you to Max. she's been hanging everything on hearing those words and I think she has to realize saying it is important too, that she's not the only one who needs to hear it.
there's been so much in 4 (actually kinda in 3 too) about El finding the importance of other kinds of love than romantic, and we didn't spend as much time processing this part, but the end of 4 also gave us a lot to chew on about the importance of giving her own love, and not just waiting around hoping to receive it. she spent all this time waiting to find power in love from Mike but actually found it in her own love for Max. maybe the "I love you" she's waiting to hear is in her own voice.

made some very minor rules updates! the main one :
i won’t fill out interest checkers or send in rules passwords; it just feels quite formal for what is, to me, a very casual hobby! if we’re mutuals, I WANT TO WRITE WITH YOU — & as king of pulling AUs out of thin air, there’s almost never a time where i can’t or won’t write with a particular muse. just assume i’m up for anything & i’ll communicate my boundaries if they come up!
i totally understand the appeal and, especially for folks who can be anxious about approaching others, the comfort of having it in writing that a mutual wants to write before reaching out, but — well, if i didn't want to write with you, i wouldn't be following!! please assume me following is me jumping up and down with glee at the prospect of writing with you. my rules specifically beg mutuals to send me unprompted asks / starters / etc., and that applies to all of you and all your muses! i don't need to know a ton about your muse / their fandom / their world etc to party hard, and some of my favourite dynamics have come about from somebody just chucking a starter at me and being like 'x and y are friends now and here's the starter to prove it.' i am always down, and trust me when i say that if there was a muse on your blog i simply Could Not Stand To See Or Write With the chances of me following you in the first place are ~ 1%

hi, im that aro anon you were talking about. you didn’t sound preachy at all, dw, i just wanted to clarify myself because i sent that ask like a week ago i think and i probably could’ve explained myself better.
..which is sort of the hard part for me because articulating my thoughts on love is just as hard as fully grasping haha. it makes sense in my head but writing it never comes out right.
i think you bring up a lot of good points and i totally agree with your thoughts on platonic love, always have, and i’m the last person that treats platonic love as second best to the romantic kind.
what i was trying to say is that the label or line itself doesn’t really matter to me when it comes to ianthony. in real life they’re obviously platonic, but a lot of people see them in a romantic context too for fun, and i understand it regardless so it doesn’t make a difference to me. in my mind, it doesn’t even really require a label. it’s just Love, and that’s why i felt that i could understand it fully in a way that’s usually hard for me.
to quote myself, they are [an example of] my definition of love, and that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s romantic— i didn’t mean it romantically. it just is. my aromanticism felt relevant when talking about this because it affects the way i view all love, but i think that might’ve led to confusion.
you said it better than me: “I’d even say it’s true love”. that’s what i was originally trying to get across, and i think it might’ve gotten misinterpreted a little. but i really appreciate you talking about it because i love discussing things with other aro(aces) like myself. sorry for the essay ❤️
Thank you for the clarification! I also didn't mean to sound like I thought you were devaluing platonic love! That wasn't the thought process, the whole thing sort of came from a misplaced sense of concern, I guess. 😅
