Wondering if maybe I should make my aroace intersex OC aplatonic as well. Like, maybe either plato-favorable or plato-indifferent. I have several OC’s that make up a friend group, but I’ve been wondering for a bit if I should make one of them aplatonic, since I’m on that spectrum myself (grayplatonic) and since aplspec people are horribly underrepresented. Kind of weird that I would make several OC’s when I’m not really capable of fleshing out even one of them (I really only know basic things about all of them). But anyway, I was thinking that maybe the character I’m referring to first joined the friend group a long time ago because of shared interests with one or more of the members of the friend group. She knows she cares about those who call themselves her friends, but she comes to realize that she doesn’t love them like someone who’s alloplatonic would; that she wouldn’t mind if she stopped seeing them altogether. Sure, she likes having people to talk to about her interests and to vent to, and is mostly fine with the give-and-take that friendship demands, but when it really comes down to it, she likes being alone most of the time. She eventually kind of leaves the friend group as they go their separate ways. Maybe one or more of them check in on her from time-to-time, which she doesn’t mind, but she goes on to live on her own with her cat Nimbus (or Bus for short), pursuing her career and interests.

Idk, how does that sound? I’m not entirely aplatonic, so I’m not sure if this is really good or not. I don’t really plan to do anything with my characters as of now (I probably never will tbh, lmao) but I still want to make sure that they don’t misrepresent any of the lgbt+ groups that my characters fit into (or any of the racial groups they are a part of, but that’s not what I’m talking about in this post). For instance, I’m perisex, so I have many things to learn about intersex people. I guess this is one of the reasons I don’t try to flesh out my OC’s that much; because I’m afraid of inserting my own ignorance and biases into their characters (if that makes sense?). But anyway, thoughts?

(Sorry about this post. It’s just that, if I didn’t make it, I would probably spend hours awake thinking about this idea)

(Also, should I make a post about my OC’s…?)

what about love

this was meant to be my anti-Valentine's contribution yesterday but I didn't get it finished in time. BUT IT'S DONE NOW!

SPOILER WARNING FOR ALL THINGS BEX VERSE.

This takes place in her late teens so... all things bursting into life and probably most if not all of the it won't be like this for long series is already done by the time this takes place.

you've been warned.

On ao3 and below the cut (1737 words)

“Here you are, mi sol,” Ray says as he hands Bex a mug of his now-famous hot chocolate, a favourite of the entire family. He leans against the deck railing next to her and stares out into the yard. “Care to tell me why you’re spending Valentine’s Day with two old men?”

“Hey!” Caleb exclaims, affronted, from where he’s trying to close the sliding screen door to the porch. “I’m not old!”

Ray chuckles and knocks his shoulder against Bex’s. She turns to offer him a small smile in mutual amusement.

Bex shrugs, blowing lightly on her hot chocolate. She takes a small sip, holding back the tears that are threatening to escape.

“What’s going on, mi nieta?” Ray asks gently.

Bex curses his ability to read her, even here in the dark. Caleb comes and stands on her other side, mimicking both her and Ray’s poses leaning out over the yard. He doesn’t say anything, just offers his comforting presence. She looks down at the mug in her hands and lets out a deep breath. Now or never, right?

“I… I don’t know if I know what love is.”

Bex can feel both of the men turn toward her in tandem. She doesn’t look up but she can feel their stares boring into her.

Ray sputters slightly. “Do we… Do we not show you we love you enough?” he asks, concern and hurt lacing his voice.

Bex’s eyes widen with realization and she turns to him, almost dropping her hot chocolate when she tries to clarify. “No! “Oh god, NO! I feel loved by you. All of you. God, I know how much all of you love me. I don’t mean it like that at all!”

Bex sets her mug down on the railing.

“Rebecca, darling, what do you mean?” Caleb asks gently as he places a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

She turns toward him and leans back against the railing with a sigh.

“What’s going on, Bex?” Ray tries again.

Bex looks down at her shoes and fiddles with her fingernails, a nervous trait picked up from her dad. She laughs drily to herself when she notices. She stills her fingers and shoves her hands into her pockets. Bitterly laughing again as she thinks of how much she can have in common with her parents. Just not this. Of course not this.

“Bex,” Ray’s soft voice brings her out of her thoughts.

She looks up at him, a pained expression taking over her face.

“You know you can tell us anything, right?” Caleb adds.

She looks back down at the ground. “I think I might be broken,” she mumbles.

Caleb’s eyebrows furrow and he crouches down so he can see her face. “Darling, no. Whatever’s wrong, you’re not broken!”

Her face crumples and Caleb immediately scoops her into a hug. He beckons over her shoulder to Ray who wraps both of them up from the other side.

“Mi sol…” Ray attempts again, trying to console her but unsure of what she needs to hear right now.

“I’m… I’m sorry,” she gasps out between sobs.

“You have nothing to be sorry for,” Caleb assures her. “Whatever it is, we’re here for you.”

“But your Valentine’s Day. I…”

“Rebecca Rose Molina. You nothing,” Caleb insists. “We want you here. Anytime you want to be. Always.”

Bex sniffs and wipes her nose with the back of her hand.

“Come,” Ray guides her back toward the house. They sit on the bench just outside the door and Caleb hands her the hot chocolate she’d left on the railing. He takes his place on her other side and exchanges a quick, concerned look with Ray over her head.

“What’s going on?” Caleb asks again.

Bex takes a deep breath and one final sniffle. She rolls her shoulders back, sitting up a bit straighter, as if trying to fill herself up with courage. “You know how I don’t really have any friends?”

Ray exchanges another look with Caleb and they both nod. “Yeah,” he says simply.

“I don’t really think my brain… Or my heart, I guess? I don’t think they work that way?”

Ray’s brows furrow in confusion. “What way?”

“Like… The friends way. The love way. Not the way you two love each other. Or the way my dads do. Or Uncle and Tia. Or Uncle and Papa. None of it. I just… Emptiness.” She fiddles her fingers against themselves where they're wrapped around her mug.

“Emptiness,” Caleb echoes.

Bex nods, “Yeah.” There’s only a moment’s pause before she speaks up again, “Well, actually. It’s not really emptiness. It feels like it should be though.”

Caleb hums thoughtfully. “What does it feel like is there instead?”

“You guys. Our family. The things I like to do. I think maybe Riley? A little bit? I don’t really know. Everyone always makes such a big deal of their friends. Dating. I just don’t get it. And,” she takes another deep breath before continuing, “I don’t know. Our family is so much love all the time and it feels like I’m watching the same movie as everyone else but it’s in a language I don’t understand or something.”

“Have you ever tried to explain this to anyone before?” Ray asks.

Bex shakes her head. She lifts her mug up to her lips to take another sip, scrunching her face up in disgust when the liquid hits her mouth colder than expected. Caleb lets out a light laugh and takes the mug from her. He sets it on the table beside him before turning back to Bex and Ray.

“Do you feel better now? Having told us?” Caleb asks.

Bex pulls the sleeves of her sweater down over her hands and pulls her legs up so she can tuck her knees under her chin. “Yeah. A bit.”

“Well, I don’t know much about anything. But I’m glad we could be here for you,” Ray says. “Is there anything you need from us right now?”

Bex leans into Ray and he wraps his arm around her. “No, this is good I think. Thanks, Abuelo.”

“Any time, mi sol.”

“You know,” Caleb says after a contemplative silence, “I thought something like that once. That I might be ‘broken.’?

Bex doesn’t move from her position tucked into Ray’s side. “Oh?”

“Yeah, I wasn’t surrounded by love the same way you are though so I don’t think I noticed quite the same. But it was just work for me. For a really long time. I didn’t really want anything different. People thought it was strange but it’s not unheard of for men to wrap themselves up into their work, you know?”

Bex lets out a soft chuckle, “Yeah, I know.”

“You changed everything for me, Rebecca Rose,” Caleb reaches over and gently flicks under her chin. He looks up at Ray, “and then I met your abuelo and well, the rest is history.”

“Gross,” she utters around a fake gag. They laugh with her until her face falls. “What if I don’t find someone?”

Ray squeezes her a little tighter and presses a kiss to the top of her head in reassurance.

“Do you want to?” Caleb asks.

Bex shrugs.

“And what about…?" He trails off, not really how to ask the question he has. "So you and Riley then, you aren’t…”

She narrows her eyes at him, “I assure you, you do not want to know the details of mine and Riley’s relationship.”

He puts up his hands in defense and Ray chuckles lightly.

Caleb sends her a knowing smile, “I think you should consider talking to your dads about this. Especially your Papa. Reggie might understand more than you’d expect.”

Bex directs a confused look his way, “Papa? But…?”

He silences her by miming zipping his lips closed. “Not my story to tell, darling. But I think you might have more in common than you think.”

“We’ll see,” she replies noncommittally.

Ray lightly nudges her up with his shoulder. She turns to look at him. He has a slightly pained expression on his face. “Do you still… Do you think you love us? Your family? You said you don’t know if you know what love feels like.”

“I don’t know,” she says softly. Her fingers make their ways out of her sweater sleeves and she fiddles with them. “Is that okay?”

“Of course that’s okay, mi nieta,” Ray answers as he pulls her back into his side. “Of course it’s okay.”

More tears threaten to let loose and Bex sucks in a shaky breath, “I don’t want to feel broken anymore.”

“Honey, you’re not broken.” He presses another kiss to her head, “Look at us. Look at our whole family. How many of us do you think has ever felt broken at some point?”

She sniffles, “Yeah.”

“And do you think that we’re broken?”

Bex shakes her head.

“Exactly. We just all exist in different ways. That’s all. Your dads have been pushing against ‘normal’ since before they even knew you existed. And now look at us. The whole Molina clan. A beautiful mess.”

She giggles, “Flynn and Carrie aren’t Molinas. Neither’s Uncle Stevie for that matter.”

Ray flicks the end of her nose playfully. “Neither’s Caleb,” he whispers.

Caleb rolls his eyes and stands. “You know what he meant,” he says with a teasing smile as he gathers their mugs.

“And they’re all honourary Molinas anyway,” Ray adds.

“Yeah, I know,” she replies, the corners of her lips quirking up slightly.

“Are you two staying out here for a bit?” Caleb asks.

Bex tilts her head up to look at Ray in question.

“Yeah, I think so,” he answers for both of them.

Caleb leans down to press a kiss to the top of Bex’s head.

He’s halfway through standing back up when Ray’s voice stops him, “Excuse me?! Where’s mine?”

Caleb chuckles lightly before leaning down to press a kiss to Ray’s lips. “You’re a big baby,” he teases as he stands back up.

“You two are so weird,” Bex says a bit sleepily.

“Yeah, well, so are you. Get used to it,” Caleb replies jokingly before walking into the house.

He returns a moment later with a blanket and drapes it over the pair. He kisses each of them again.

“Love you, darling.”

“Thanks, Caleb.”

“We’ll always love you, mi sol. No matter what,” Ray adds.

“I know, Abuelo, thank you.”

"aroace people can still have relationships-" NOT ALL OF THEM CAN. YOU KNOW THAT RIGHT. WHY DO YOU WORD IT AS "aroaces can still be in relationships" AND NOT "some can have relationships, and others cannot."? WHY MUST YOU INSIST THAT WE STILL CAN LOVE IN SOME WAY. WHY DOES IT MATTER. WHY SHOULD WE HAVE TO LOVE. WHY, WHEN TALKING ABOUT AROACES, DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO IMPLY THAT IT'S OUR OTHER WAYS OF LOVING THAT MAKES US ACCEPTABLE? WHY CAN'T THE FACT WE DON'T LOVE MAKE US GOOD PEOPLE? WHY IS THERE ALWAYS AN EMPHASIS ON THE OTHER WAYS WE LOVE, OR THE AROACES THAT CAN STILL DATE, AND NOT ON OUR LACK OF LOVE? IT FEELS TO ME, LIKE YOU ARE TRYING TO PUSH ASIDE THAT ASPECT OF OUR IDENTITY, BECUASE IT'S TOO STRANGE TO YOU. YOU MAY NOT SAY IT OUTLOUD, BUT THERE'S STILL A STIGMA AROUND LOVELESSNESS. IN YOUR MIND, YOU STILL ARE VIEWING LOVELESS PEOPLE AS LESS MORAL OR GOOD, AREN'T YOU? OTHERWISE, YOU WOULD CELEBRATE OUR LOVELESSNESS, NOT SHOVE IT ASIDE BECUASE "THERE ARE OTHER WAYS TO LOVE"

#sorry im just mad and probably having a low blood sugar honestly.#i just.#why is the world so unfair?#idk idk im just so annoyed #i KNOW aroace is a spectrum but THAT INCLUDES LOVELESS PEOPLE #STOP. EXCLUDING US.#aroace #loveless #loveless aroace #aplatonic #aplspec #afamilial #aspec #AND FOR YOU PEOPLE IN FANDOMS.#SHIPPING AROACE CHARACTERS.#YOU THINK WE ARE TOO BORING RIGHT. YOU CAN'T THINK OF ANYYYY OTHER PLOTLINES BESIDES SHIPPING. WOW YOU ARE JUST #SO INCLUSIVE OF AROACES RIGHT??? WOW SHIPPING AROACES MAKES YOU SOOOOOO INCLUSIVE OF THE AROACES THAT CAN DATE #ITS DEFINITELLYY NOT BECUASE YOU ARE APHOBIC NOOOOO #THATS WHY YOU ARENT MAKING WRITING CHARACTERS THAT ACTUALLY SHOW ATTRACTION AS AROACE.#MHM.#SURE.#YOU COULD WRITE CHARACTERS THAT DO SHOW ATTRACTION IN CANON TO BE ASPEC.#BUT NAHHHH..... LETS JUST TAKE THE ONE AROACE WHO DOESNT SHOW ATTRACTION AND SHIP THEM.#DEFINITELY NOT APHOBIC. AT ALL. NEVER.#/sarcasm

do think it's funny that nine is like "ew no domestic stuff h-hate it don't even... don't even like it even a little bit pls don't invite me to your dinners, i'll just start crying- I mean, dying because i hate it so much, because family and things... stupid..." [next regeneration based on having imprinted so hard on their companion that their whole sense of self is tied to that relationship and being a part of her family]

meanwhile eleven whenever they're faced with being included in the pond family settled-down life in any material longterm way is kicking and screaming and running up the walls with boredom

#m*ffat: im gonna write the most heterosexual alloromantic character #eleven: tends to react to kissing like a ten year old and finds the idea of normative familial romantic living structures so so boring #to the point of being not just aro coded but aplatonic coded #doctor who #dw #doctor who meta #the doctor #the ninth doctor #the tenth doctor #the eleventh doctor

Aroallo Scarab headcanons (God auditor version).

I've traveled across the entire multiverse... and I'm the one who's missing out?

If you came here from AO3, thanks for reading my silly story.

This art is a creation of the fabulous, fantastic, amazing, talented, stunning Kooi_koo

When they finally send me my commission, I was so happy about it. It’s perfect. I spent five hours looking at it XD

You should check their art. It’s amazing!

But, going back to Scarab...

So, Scarab is one of my comfort characters, and I decided to laser beame him as aroallo because I can (and he gives me the vibes, okay?). So, here are some of my headcanons about him.

(By the way, some of these apply to him in the Human AU too).

CW: Suggestive/sexual content.

Scarab has a really high libido and used to bang like crazy until he acquired the title of God Auditor.

He started to become a workaholic so he could forget about sex. Because according to him, his new position wouldn’t need him to get distracted.

But, from time to time, he rarely used his shapeshifting ability to get laids. And always kept his real identity in the dark. For the sake of professionalism.

He feels some kind of repulsed toward romance, especially romantic gestures. He can’t find the appeal in them.

He always saw himself as not partnering. He never felt drawn to people or cosmic beings in that way. For a long time, he convinced himself he was like that for his workaholic tendencies.

He doesn’t like to use the word ‘love’. He prefers to use other words like tenderness, admiration, or similar to show his feelings. (Feelings he expressed more until he started to live in the Time Cube with Prismo).

The last creature that called him ‘my boyfriend’, to refer him, ended up inside an egg.

About developing friendships… he likes them in theory. And crave them to some degree. But he just can’t attempt to make them work, because for him is hard to feel an attachment to people.

That applies to family bondings too.

Living with Prismo surely made him see things from a different perspective. Scarab considered Prismo an annoyance for quite some time.

Until Prismo and Scarab got creative. Come on, being in the Time Cube must be boring sometimes. Of course, they will explore each other’s bodies (and a lot of kink’s awakenings happened).

Continuing with the kink part, Scarab’s occasional partners LOVED his mummy form. They always get creative in funny ways. (Roleplay? Bondage? Both?)

While writing fanfics with Prismo, he discovered the different shipping troupes. Scarab likes the Enemies-to-lovers trope because of the amount of sexual tension. But he would rather prefer it to be ‘Enemies to Friends with Benefits’.

Scarab started to question his orientation after watching the Fionna World, where some friends were talking and one of them confessed to being ‘aromantic’.

Prismo showed him support from the beginning and both started research to put a name to Scarab’s experiences.

Scarab immediately found comfort in the label aroallo because it describes perfectly his experience. And he doesn't want to specify who he is attracted to.

To some degree he identifies with other labels as ‘loveless’, ‘aplatonic’, and ‘afamilial’, but he feels more comfortable using just aroallo because, for him, his attraction is about ‘all or nothing’ and not completely fitting in other labels makes him scream.

He’s aware of terms like gray, demi, etc, but again, Scarab is too dense for his own good to even consider using them.

And when he began to feel a different kind of attraction (non sexual) towards Prismo, he freaked out.

Then, he learned about other kinds of attraction different from romantic and he felt some relief.

He still doesn’t know how he feels towards Prismo. All he knows is he cares for him and has the most exquisite sex together.

Scarab still refuses to see Prismo as a partner. And Prismo is okay with that.

Prismo immediately accepted the fact that Scarab wouldn’t grant him a romantic relationship, but thanks to Scarab, he discovered other ways of bonding with him. and even with other people.

#adventure time fionna and cake #scarab fionna and cake #scarab the god auditor #human scarab #scarab fanart #headcanon #aromantism #aroallo #loveless aro #aplatonic #afamilial #the last three tags are barely mentioned but I decided to add them anyway #because representation matters #aroallo agenda #suddenly I realized a lot of my comfort characters wear mask or cover their faces #with their hair #or a paper bag #that surely must say something about me #well i'm having fun
