My favorite thing about fanfic authors is they can identify any gap in a canon timeline where characters are offscreen and exploit the ever living fuck out of it
They see a time skip of any length and go

when you download a pdf and it's called like 1328723486basdf12.pdf but then you gently rename it to what it's supposed to be. that's forming a bond with a hurt and wild mythological creature and reminding it who it is.

honestly my advice for people questioning if they're aro is kind of the same as my advice for people questioning if they're trans which is do less worrying about whether or not you inherently fall into this arbitrary category and do more considering what you want in and from your life. like ultimately deconstructing societal ideals of what relationships (or gender) should be like and figuring out what you want them to look like in your life is what matters and whether or not you experience romantic attraction is kind of immaterial

Pro-tip to young trans guys:
If a stranger misgenders you, please please please do not ever utter the phrase, “I’m a man.” It sounds very unnatural and immediately sounds overly defensive.
My advice? Just look at the person like they’re an idiot and, in the deepest voice possible, say, “Uh. Alright, then.”
Just act as though they made a huge and obvious mistake, and don’t get flustered. If you’re comfortable with it, handle the situation with humor and say something like, “Man, I know I’ve got a babyface, but I didn’t think it was that bad.”

Arknights and stars
On that topic, Arknights has always had a connection to the stars and its own star map is a bit wonky if compared to earth now but makes sense if you see it in the great scheme of things.
From Astesia's file on, it's been implied that the dome that surrounds Terra is fake, and Kristen is the first one who has gone beyond it so far (traveling from Terra to beyond the dome). It's also said that the reason people cannot navigate the sea reliably is because the stars themselves aren't reliable.
But it's also a bit more concrete that the stars are a bit off, or, it would look like that.
Remember Children of Ursus? Everyone remembers its dark story but few remember the map layout.
Tumblr media
This is the Big Dipper, part of the constellation Ursa Maior. Fitting for an event that features bear characters.
But wait! Doesn't the Big Dipper look like this?
Tumblr media
It does. But the Big Dipper over 50,000 years looks like this...
Tumblr media
Like I pointed out in the previous post, the stars are always on the move. It may seem slow to us but if you take a large enough timescale then the sky sure does shift from what it's now.
Remember this skin of Astesia's?
Tumblr media
It sure is a pretty skin. But zoom in on the star chart and you'll find something...peculiar...
Tumblr media
Several constellations look...off. Like Leo, Virgo, Hydra and Gemini. And...
Tumblr media
The star that's marked as the North Star (i.e the star in the middle) is not Polaris, but Vega, the largest star in the constellation Lyra! Don't see it? Here, I'll make it a little more clear:
Tumblr media
And Lyra how it is now, which is, again, slightly different from how Lyra is depicted in the above image:
Tumblr media
Vega is not our current North Star, it's the star Polaris (duh). But Vega was in about 14,000 years ago, and will be again in about 12,000 to 13,000 years in the future. So not our current North Star.
Tumblr media
The celestial globe is also tilted at 45 degrees instead of 23,5 for earth.
So! A huge misser on the part of the artist, right?
Wrong!
You see, the ecliptic and equator in the artwork do obviously not align with our current ecliptic and equator. But our equator and ecliptic looking like in the skin can only happen if the precession of the earth's axis is tilted towards the south...which will be the case in 12,000 to 13,000 years from now. At that time, the constellations look will 'off' compared to how the look now (I was talking about the stars shifting over time in my previous post) and Polaris will no longer the be North Star, like in the artwork.
The kicker?
Lone Trail reveals that Terra is at least 13,000 years old.
