When I was twelve or thirteen and thought I was bisexual, I started reading Tomura Shigaraki x readers, but stopped because I realised I just wanted to hang out with him and be his friend instead of be his gf, and that these fics were twisting his character in my mind. That probably should have been a sign of my aromanticism and asexuality, but no, I wouldn’t figure it out for a while.
At school we had yearly letters that we would write to ourselves, and in one from when I was perhaps fourteen, I wrote something akin to ‘no crushes yet, but I’m hopeful’. Reading that when I graduated and got the letters back was fun, I enjoyed laughing at myself.
shoutout to nine-year-old me who was very much aroace but didnt know the difference between hyperfixating on a character and having a crush on them so for the next few years i told everyone that the only crush i ever had was on lord voldemort
My little guy 😊
Thought I'd change their appearance up a little bit! The short hair isn't really permanent because I still like the long hair more.
Hope y'all like them!!

J'ai l'impression qu'il y a aucune personnes aroace en france, je sais que non évidemment mais en une vingtaine d'années je n'en ai jamais rencontrées...
(À part un mec ace et une fille bi ace au lycée)
Honnêtement, je me sens seul.e à cause de la pression allonormative et amanormative en ce moment parce que je suis entouré.e que de personnes allos (et horny asf, elles me mettent mal à l'aise tous les jours 💀) dont beaucoup d'entre eux sont en couple.
Ça plus la télé et les réseaux sociaux, bref, internet et les représentations des allos dans la généralité. 😒
Ça m'étouffe et le fait de n'avoir aucune personne aroace dans mon entourage pour souffler de l'air frais et se comprendre sur ce sujet est frustrant...
Et tout ça me montre à quel point je veux tellement être en relation queer platonique avec une autre personne aroace encore plus que d'habitude...
Au moins en rencontrer une et être amis serait incroyable.
Anyway, j'avais besoin d'écrire pour extérioriser !
People who don’t know what “aroace” means never understand why I like losing when I play Old Maid.
*so we know he’s asexual in canon. but he could still feel romantic attraction!!1!1
what’s this? a screenshot from the writer’s twitter??? doesn’t prove anything. that’s just one comic. i’ll put an asterisk next to the comics by this guy to prove he’s the only one writing Juggie as aro.
i’m not convinced. that’s pretty open to interpretation; he’s probably interested
well… maybe that could mean he’s aro?

By sun.after.winter
The sides draw closer
Repulsion and longing,
Back and forth, back and forth
Tossing me out to sea
It's been so long,
Years it's been encroaching
Crawling, wave by wave, ever closer
To drown - or to fly
Do I turn back, or do I turn my back
Symbols that once meant so much -
Safety, love, hope, closeness
Now a symbol taunting me, to choose
He's god, he's love, he's hope, he's resilience
So why do I hold back?
Am I still his child?
Loveless, as I am.
Picking and choosing between his words, his laws,
Simply so I can belong?
Imagine getting so worked up over someone talking about aro/ace erasure. “I’m sick of your stupid drama” four words for you, block and move on. You WILL be okay. They are not torturing your family right in front of you.
I think you will be okay if even ONE aroace person wishes that others wouldn’t erase the rep that we BARELY even get in the first place. Stop acting pathetic and just BLOCK if it makes you act this way.
Also, on that note, what the hell? “May every (fictional) character suffer forever in a straight abusive incestuous hellscape with an age gap,” are you really that mad about this person’s post that you’re wishing characters that don’t even exist to be in a situation like that? Grow up and get a fucking life, actually, because again, you’re acting pathetic.
If you’re so tired of discourse, then fucking ignore it instead of engaging in it, because, if you didn’t know, engaging will land you in even MORE discourse!! That’s how stuff like this works!!!
Ok i already talked about this before but I’m gonna again.
Whenever people ship aroace characters IT. IS. ERASING. REP.
“But they could be gray-“ disrespectfully stfu. You wouldn’t do that with a gay character.
You wouldn’t say “But they could be bi!!!” To a gay character so you could ship them with the opposite gender. That would get you cancelled in five seconds flat. So why is it okay to essentially do the same thing with an aroace character? (And btw dont go “ermmm that does happe-“ I’M WELL AWARE IT DOES but this happens so much more to aroace characters without any consequences.)
If the aroace character DOES have a partner then sure. If the aroace character DOES show interest in dating then sure. If the aroace character is CONFIRMED grayromantic/sexual THEN SURE. BUT if it is NOT confirmed and they show ZERO interest in romance/sex then STOP. SHIPPING. THEMMMM!!!!!!
It is NOT that hard. Aroace characters don’t belong to you. It is so fucking infuriating to see people take the only rep we have and completely disregard it. Again, you wouldn’t do that with a gay character would you? You wouldn’t do that with a lesbian character either!!! So stop doing it with aroaces!!!
There is so many other characters for you to ship together. Just let us aroaces have our rep and stop disregarding it. The world will not end if you do, I promise.
Might be an omni or sapphic oriented aroace
This however is an ordeal/question for future Bagel to deal with :D
I mean… yeah
I figured out I’m asexual at around 16 and then figured out I’m aromantic as well either later in the year at 16 or at 17
Hahahahahahahaha; me
Bitches who are aroace and agender fr js said
