Wish more people understood the difference between "shipping this aro character because i want to explore their aromanticism and where they stand in the spectrum" and "shipping this aro character because i don't care about their orientation".

perhaps the reason why aup ended like *that* is because it was not supposed to have a happy ending in the first place, but sayren didnt have the guts to deal with readers' backlash for when they finally kill off the main character so a half baked happy ending is what we get 😔

tbh i wish aup had more reps for characters who achieve greatness purely through hard work and effort. the emphasis on genius/being special is mayhaps way too much to the point that it feels kinda damn depressing for those who aint born as one.

I had a scientific theory I needed to sketch out.

everything can be an aromantic allegory if you try hard enough

love how ludger will complain, "you always make unreasonable demands" when it comes to casey, and yet ten times out of ten, he still agrees to it anyway.

first 5 faceless emojis are how your summers gonna go

yes yes characters doomed by the narrative always slap BUT what about characters saved by the narrative? characters who have already given up hope and don't know they have a happy ending? characters who believe they are a lost cause, characters who feel irredeemable, characters who think there's nothing left for them, but the narrative does provide a way out? what about the characters who don't expect anything good, who don't even remember how to wish for it anymore, who get the things they need anyway? what about the characters who actively run from being saved getting saved in a way they can't stop or control. what about being saved by the narrative!!!

this unexplained phenomenon still lives rent-free in my mind, so now i have to write the missing dialog for it:

"I knew it would be like this. Surely you must have done that on purpose?" "But isn’t it fortunate that we now have separate rooms?" "That’s right. That's really fortunate. I could have been completely helpless against a wolf-like man." "That’s not something someone who is more foxy than anyone else in the world would say. And let me tell you, you owe me twice." "Ah. Is that so? I would not have reacted if it weren’t for you? Debt is 1." "Still, I saved you. Surely you don't underestimate your own value that much? Debt is 2." "It doesn’t matter because I’m the troublemaker that the family is so willing to give away. Debt is 1." "If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have been assigned a new room because of this incident. Debt is 2." "Isn't us getting separate rooms also what you want? Debt is 1." "It seems to bother you more than it bothers me, though. Debt is 2." "...Are you saying that you wouldn't mind sharing the same room with me?" "...I did not say that." "Then how the fuck else am I supposed to interpret it?" "Fine. I’ll give in and make it 1.5." "Wait a moment. What even is the concept of 1.5 in debt? Just clear it cleanly.” "Then round it up to 2." "I'll give in and make it 1.5." "Ha. Since I am the one who erased the debt, I guess I can be generous and let it go.” "How annoying." "You’d better pay off your debt to me quickly. Otherwise, I don’t know what I’ll ask for." "Ha! You're bluffing. Do you think I’d be scared of that?" "……" "……You’re bluffing, right?"

ok, yknow what. it still bewilders me how comfortable ludger was even though he was forced to share the same room with casey. even i would hate sharing the same room with my family, no matter how close we are. plus ignoring the matter of attractions and embarrassment, ludger is still someone who is extremely introverted and highly values his privacy, so ¿¿¿¿¿¿ whats going on here and why did he consider [giving casey her own private room] == [she is now in debt to him] as if it didnt benefit them both or its not something he also wanted ??????

no worries. have a good day 😅
