Being ace is an opposite of fuck around and find out:

Fuck nobody and never know for sure

#never knowing is actually a very important part #bc you learn that you dont care and you dont wait for that ✨special someone✨ #if something changes: cool #if nothing changes: cool #i dont need to be sure to be okay with my sexuality #and i dont need proof for others if i want to use one label or another #peace and love on planet earth #humans have too short lives for random people telling them they can't live their life how they want #asexual #asexuality #aroace #ater babbling at 2 am #hello new followers time to disappoint you 💖 #also im sex repulsed. but if you are not? then fuck and never know for sure ✨ #its literally 2am i really should stop and think before posting something. but dis a problem for a future fish #Right now fish wants to post their stupid post

Uhmmmm we don't talk about how I stayed up even longer to draw more. I just was in such a drawing mood I suppose. Anyways Julie-su sketch, its really sketchy ahh im tired (I have to do a full on thing for her with lesbian flag colours like RAHHHZHHDDH)

(Also @mary-venom's art of Julie-Su is what inspired me to draw her in the first place cause they draw her so cute I can't)

#julie-su #sonic archie #sonic fanart #sonic art #sth #sonic the hedgehog #doodle #sketch #if you dont like being @'d just let me know #i wasnt sure if i should @ or not HFKDJF #anyways i love her #shes such an aroace lesbian or aro lesbian #shes just gosh #i had fun drawing her #like #FHEJEJ gotta find the coolest dynamic pose for her #she she she she #anyways i sleep now because holy why did i stay up till 4 am im so stupid

Let me be the one to ask. How did you come up with this Queerplatonic Frans concept? What drew you into making this?

Aww thank you for asking such a delicious question, pal! Hope you're ready to listen to my 1 am rambles XD

Alright so, to be completely honest...I actually don't truly know how Romance works to execute it myself 😬

Haha yup, sadly, the concept of Romance and Romantic Attraction didn't naturally come to me my whole life and I had a hard time understanding them. (Skill issue, amiright?) So I learned about them through fiction. And even then, my understanding of Romance was a little bit different from what it's usually is (spoiler: it wasn't actually Romance, the word I needed was "Queerplatonic").

I've drawn ship arts before I started drawing Frans and let me tell you, almost all of them were 2 characters just standing next to each other, no hugs, no kisses. Maybe they'll look at each other with fondness. And I was like "hell yeah, I've achieved Romance 😌" pfft.

My 2020 Frans works were where my ship art skills got improved. But you can still see that they aren't explicitly romantic (like, the first time I drew a Frans forehead kiss was for a request). Whatever, I was drawing stuffs about my fav lil guys and I was happy... and yet a tiny part of me wasn't feeling it, like it felt...odd to call them romantic. All these shippy art and I still felt uncomfortable to draw something extremely Romantic. (...this kinda sounds similar to a comphet kind of situation, you get what I'm saying?)

2 years later, I learned about the term "queerplatonic" and just like that, everything made sense =o Now THAT'S the kind of relationship I've been thinking about all these years and it felt magical. Suddenly, with this new knowledge, drawing shippy art felt more comfortable for me, cozy even. Cuz now, the "romance" I'm making is like something a little special for me.

And then I thought "what if I...👀" I grabbed Frisk and Sans like figurines and used them to make my own little ideas of a queerplatonic relationship as they were the perfect materials to work with for me.

I've actually been busying myself with thinking up ideas for them a year before I revealed it to my mutuals, even long before I revealed it publicly 😅

Still, my Roommate Banter AU Frans is still classic romantic. I've only been making funny lil contents of them but I swear! They're secretly crushing on each other, there's romance underneath! I just suck at Romance 😭

So yeah, TL:DR, I don't completely understand romance so I did what I felt comfortable and did actually get the most, approach a ship with a queerplatonic lens.

Tho I'm still learning about Romance cuz there're other ships I'd love to draw shippy art for XD

Anyways, yeah thank you to anyone who read all of this and thank you dear anon for indulging me with your ask <3 Have a lovely day/night ^^

#asks #thank you for the ask! #frans #ah it felt so good to talk about this #even if it looks like i'm just talking into the void #but we all know that void is full of many wonderful things hehe #also i'm so tired and i should sleep but i couldn't so here i am #it's past 2 am by the time i'm done typing cuz i kept getting distracted #again thank you if you read all of this including the tags #imma pass out now #good nighttt #i hope there aren't typos and grammar mistakes above #aroace struggles amirite? #qpr frans

lately i have been so frustrated cause one of my friends keeps telling me that out of everyone, she believes i'm going to be the one married with kids no matter how many times i've told i don't want kids. do i see myself married? potentially. but i'm on both the aro and ace spectrum, so it's more unlikely, and i don't particularly feel the need. She insists that i have to get married, so i always like "haha yeah maybe" just hoping she would drop it.

at this point, it almost feels like she's acting like a third parent to me and trying to tell me what my future is, and i don't know what to do.

#she's a good person but won't drop it #I am really bad at confrontation and she should know by know how uncomfortable it makes me #I dont understand why she brings it up #asexual #aromantic #ace #asexuality #aromantism #aroace

[karineverse]

I feel like I was faking it, I pay so much attention to romance and that stuff, which I know it's not a crime, but it's starting to make me doubt my aromantism and not in a good way

#y'all don't know how bad I feel for it lmao #and I feel like even if I am aro I am a terrible example-??? #it's complicated #anyways I should probably at least try to learn more about the aroace spectrum #.... #HHHHHHHHHHHHH #kv random stuff #arospec

it should be illegal to be this fucking stupid so loudly and confidently omg..

mfs on the internet preach about "media literacy" yet they completely gloss over the fact that the only damn things that kusuo "canonically" is are a tsundere, an unreliable narrator, and a fucking liar LMFAOOO.. babe thats like basic reading comprehension, im sorry..

EDIT: it should go without saying not to send a person hate just because of a silly post like this one(+i dont have any reach anyway so im sure it wouldnt happen, but i wanna say this nonetheless lol) but i would just like to say that i just checked and realized that this person is 15 years old, so like... yeah, too young to be arguing with grown people on the internet. dont take this too serious or send this person hate pls lol..

#nobody who isnt aroace is allowed to tell ME what character has to be aroace #yall forget that we aroaces (+ESPECIALLY autistic aroaces) dont want or need your ugly white knight savior bs #'oh but im aroace n i also think hes aroace🤓' ok?? should i care about your hcs? #have your projection hcs or your regular random hcs- i literalky DONT care #but it becomes an issue when u try so desperately to defend it like this #like babe u sound so dumb☠️ #its so confusing to me how u chronically online weirdos insist on making ur hcs canon #i promise u guys ur hcs dont have to be canon for u to enjoy them #its a VERY popular hc too like tf more do u want #im autistic and aroace and i say kusuo is demi and autistic #i am him and he is me so i know factually/j #so still on the aroace spectrum but either way i dont force my hcs on other people like u selfish weirdos do LOL #also this person and the replies being like 'just cuz not all autistic ppl r aroace doesnt mean none can be' YEA OBVIOUSLY? #UR ARGUING WITH THE WALL AND ITS CRAZY CUZ NOBODY EVER SAID THAT #literally not one fucking person said he cant be aroace- just that it isnt canon #do u even fucking hear urselves..

okay so i see this all the time from Literally everyone (no hate, that's what fanfic is for) but is it like,, normal and appropriate and acceptable for doctors to be fully hugging and sharing little kisses At Work? like i agree it Is cute when one comes up behind the other in a hug, especially if they really need it, but like i don't think that happens normally? isn't that like,, not okay?? like workplace relationships are already touchy as it is and in a Hospital of all places i feel like that'd be a huge no but also i am a little biased (aroace) so maybe i am just wrong

#again no hate this is literally Why we have fanfic #its the whole fucking point #but maybe im just a little too aroace for this shit #but im like.. 90% sure thats normally Not okay #(i never have jensen and bryce do it but also thats bc its them and i am boring and live for the restrictions of canon. so.) #but n e ways someone who knows better than me should tell me bc i am almost certain thats not a normal acceptable irl thing #choices open heart #open heart choices

one thing i really really really hope is that the netflix show doesn't fall down the rabbit hole of trying to make all the ships fit in and work. atla was SO GOOD but the one downfall to me was the ships. I felt like it really took away from the main story sometimes and the chemistry Wasn't Great.

I'm happy for them to explore different relationships, but I just hate when shows feel like they have to adjust for the most popular ship on the internet. It's almost always worse off for doing that.

i thought all the pairing off at the end of the show was very weak and honestly quite disappointing... and I just hope that netflix doesn't get bogged down in the pressure of pairing off characters.

#atla live action #netflix atla #zuko #katara #aang #sokka #suki #i love Not Knowing !!!! #i love leaving shit up to interpretation!!! when shows give you things to contemplate! #to be clear this isn't me saying that there should be No Relationships in the live action I just think that shipping has it's place in atla #and it shouldn't at all be at the forefront #of course this is just my opinion and I am literally just one (1) random person on the internet #so this post means as much as you want it to mean #(and my aroace ass is Tired of romantic relationships taking the forefront as if they are the Most Important Things In The Whole World... #esp for something like atla where they go OUT OF THEIR WAY to show you that there many different types of relationships that are special an #powerful and complicated in their own way.... see zuko and iroh... the gaang as a whole...) #live action series

we gotta start using “t4t” for more than just romantic/sexual relationships. where my t4t archenemies at. able to understand eachother in an undefinable beautiful way and living in spite of what society expects them to be and also hating eachothers guts. this isn’t an enemies to lovers or a toxic codependent relationship or whatever they just genuinely fucking despise eachother completely platonically and are also trans. 2 seconds away from ripping eachothers throats out and not even in a sexy way

#yes yes i know the “4” is used to show romantic/sexual interest usually and “_4_” is used for way more than t4t however #i really wanted to make a post about 2 trans people who hate eachother for fun #homoeroticness is okay but they arent lovers. they are just filled with rage #also don’t take this post too seriously. yes we should be united as a community. im mainly thinking of ocs and fandom characters here #a little bit of fun queer drama #locus other time #trans #t4t #evil aroace trans people… you sre the coolest ever. i am 3/4 of those things #queer

adding on to what i said last night if you don't support neopronoun users, mspec gays/lesbians, or lesboys/turigirls i would like it if you unfollow me

#i dont think anyone here does think that but if you do now is the time to leave!!! #i am literally an aroace bi lesboy i think you should know that #it's more complicated than that actually but that's the succinct one
