The Hazbin Hotel fandom’s issue with accepting aromanticism and asexuality
Now that it is officially Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week, I want to talk about this!
I find that, as an aroace myself, I am constantly grasping at good representation and coming up empty— it usually ends up in one of two ways.
One: the character is portrayed as emotionless, cold, and robotic in nature. It’s the question aromantic and/or asexual people are often asked: “Are you heartless?” The answer is no, of course, but general media makes it out to be the opposite.
Or two: Their lack of attraction is seen as something to “fix” because they “haven’t found the right one yet”, and they end up with a partner as a “happy ending”.
It frustrates me greatly because of how little people actually see aromanticism or asexuality as a true part of the LGBTQIA+ community.
So when I watched Hazbin Hotel, and I found out about Alastor being aroace, I was over the moon. I was on cloud nine. I also saw how his voice actor has looked up the term as an attempt to learn about aroaces, which makes me OVERJOYED?? Amir is truly a blessing, and I love that he’s proud to embody a character that’s part of our community. It’s so beautiful to finally have a proper character, a fan favorite at that, who just so happens to be aroace— and that’s another thing I love about this.
It’s never explicitly stated in the show (though it is stated in interviews), but it’s rather clear when you’re watching, isn’t it? Alastor’s aversion to any sort of sexual advancement, coupled with Rosie’s blatant “I know you’re an ace in the hole” comment sort of spell out his asexuality pretty clearly, as well as what side of the spectrum he falls upon. In addition, his Valentine’s day card was strictly platonic, which caters to his aromantic side. It feels so validating to finally be represented, to finally have a character in media who shares the same lack of interest in romance and sex as I do.
When I entered the fandom to look for more content, I kind of expected to see the same respect for Alastor’s orientation there too. But that… wasn’t the case? I am fully aware that aromanticism and asexuality are both spectrums— of course, aromantic and/or asexual people can enter those kinds of relationships. I’m not denying that and they belong in the community as much as anyone else on the spectrum.
But, the more I see the same line again and again and again, the more it feels like an excuse to just ship what you want.
Usually I don’t mind shipping? I’m often a firm believer in people shipping what they like as long as it’s harmless and they don’t go crazy over it. I also know for a fact that Viv doesn’t have a problem with people shipping her characters. They are fictional, after all.
But in this case, people are ignoring the very thing that makes Alastor a part of the aroace community! People are ignoring his lack of romantic or sexual attraction!
Is this not the same as changing a gay character’s orientation to suit a straight ship? If not, how so? I’m told that we are a part of this community, so why aren’t we being treated like it? Why is it so hard to accept the people on the end of the spectrum who aren’t interested?
Something I’ve been noticing throughout my life is that society has not exactly progressed very much on the idea of accepting asexual or aromantic identities. Maybe we have, a little, since the old days— but hell, people in “the old days”, which in truth wasn’t very long ago, believed that asexuality was a medical condition to be “fixed” by taking the right medication or having sex. That’s a pretty low bar to clear. And on the romance side, you’re seen as a “late bloomer” or “boring” if you don’t express interest. These days, being friends with someone is treated like a gateway to them possibly becoming a lover. Not getting married, not going on dates, not wanting a partner— it’s all treated like a crime when it’s not.
Maybe I’m selfish, or sensitive, or I’m butthurt over nothing, or I’m making it all about me. Maybe I’m gatekeeping or whatever the term is. But please, please, please, I just want an aroace character like me who simply is not interested in sex or romance.
And I want fandom to respect that. I admire the creations that fans make— the art, the animatics, the writing and the character analysis. And I want people to keep creating because creation is indeed a beautiful thing.
But I really would like people to treat aroace identities like they’re important. Like it’s more than just a spectrum to get wiggle room to wrangle in another ship.

This Week in BL - I'm DELIGHTED by so much goodness, also I lust after a boy's robot's pants
Organized, in each category, with ones I'm enjoying most at the top.
Feb 2024 Wk 1
Tumblr media
Ongoing Series - Thai
The Sign (Sat YT) ep 11 of 12 - I support the fact that the producers seem to have decided that even in uniform Yai never needs to wear sleeves. Hear hear.
No sleeves for Yai ever again!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On the other hand, why doesn’t anyone ever wear gloves? Going around touching evidence all willy nilly like that.
No to sleeves. Yes to gloves.
People. Sheesh. Get with the program.
Anygay, this is such a fun show. I could watch 50 episodes of this abject nonsense. I’m sad it’s gonna be ending. And I don’t say that often about Thai BL. 
Pit Babe (Fri iQIYI) ep 12 of 14 - Oh has Jeff been kidnapped again? Here, let's throw fruit at Babe and think about it for a bit. Tra la la. Trash watch happening here.
Tumblr media
Cooking Crush (Sun YT) ep 9 of 12 - They are such very good boyfriends. Also, this is a ton of kissing for OffGun. I’m at a loss as to how they are going to turn this into a decent 12 ep show. Unfortunately, I’ve foresee it going off the rails - pacing seems off. 
For Him (Thurs iQIYI) ep 10 of 12 - We have our little No Comebacks twist. The sides are growing on me, but now the mains are boring me. The sudden gun-toting new characters are just weird. It’s like they took the script and just threw it down a staircase, gathered it back up again, then filmed that. 
City of Stars (Fri iQIYI) ep 1 of 12 - Fueang is an actor in the midst of crisis and scandal. Normally I don’t like Thai BL when it’s tackles celebrity and this is... yep, the same. Our actor is pitted against an older worried nerdy app developer, Krom. And I feel that dynamic - hyung romance, jock/nerd? Very nice. But it’s also very Star Hunter. Never met a trope they didn’t wanna do a million times over - in the very first episode. Also I think I’m not a fan of the actor playing the lead. 
My Universe (Sun iQIYI) ep 24fin - The blond who comes to get his hair shaved looks just like Fluke T (SOTUS et al). And even more like him after the shaving (My Bromance et al). Is that him? MDL doesn't say.
Anygay... something something: Orphan. Cancer. Kisses. Dream. Death. 'Bout what I expected. 2/10 even with a decent kiss I don’t do dream sequences and I don’t like death in my BL 
All in all, I’m relieved that that’s over. The series is a slog. And in general I don’t recommend it. I plan to promptly forget its entire existence. 
Ongoing Series - Not Thai
Love For Love's Sake (Korea Weds iQIYI) eps 3-4 of 8 - There is so much to adore about this show. The two younger guys who are suddenly in competition for the one older one. You know hyung romances are my favs. A hyung love triangle? COME ON. Also, I got to say this one’s giving me second lead syndrome. I do love me a brat. Add in all this on honorific play and linguistic flirting (as their should be in age gap). This is just THE BEST show. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Look I gotta say this: the "Who did this to you?" trope (AKA who hurt you?) is the single most popular romance trope right now, remarkable to see it turn up in a BL. And pleasing. Trust Korea to be ON TREND. It's their national agenda. *respect*
Perfect Propose (Japan Fri Gaga) eps 1-2 of 6 - From Fuji TV (who brought us the Pornographer series) adapted from Mayo Tsurakame’s manga, production team includes Tadaaki Horai (My Love Mix-Up!) and Takeshi Miyamoto (scriptwriter for Old Fashion Cupcake). Hiro’s so stressed at work he barely has time to eat so he passes out on the sidewalk. An unfamiliar face saves him and insists that they once promised to marry each other.
Ready?
Oh I fucking love it. Sullen, out gay, younger seme with serious grumpy overprotective tendencies and beautiful possessive cat eyes? Well, it’s not dimples, but it’s still my catnip. Also they are moving very quickly. Hand jobs already? + dub con seasoning? Say it with me everyone:
Oh Japan, must you? 
Apparently, you must. And I must enjoy it. Carry on.
Please reread those producer creds and understand what we are in for. Okay? I would urge you to avoid this one if you get squeamish when JBL does what... JBL does.
AntiReset (Taiwan Fri Viki/Gaga) eps 1-2 of 10 - I really enjoy the character of an OCD intellectual automaton professor, contrasted to a warm and sunshine actual robot. Out the gate, this is oozing Taiwanese domesticity, we can only hope they juice it with their usual standard of heat too. 
All puns aside: It’s charming and I’m charmed. Does Taiwan finally have another winner on its hands?
I do adore Taiwan's aesthetics: The house designs, the suit designs, the human designs. I wouldn't say no to the robot’s pants either. Very cool. Can I order them in black?
Tumblr media
Although I Love You and You AKA Sukiyanen Kedo Do Yaro ka (Japan Thurs Gaga) ep 4 of 10 - The birthday confession was a bit much. But I love how mature the reactions were. It reminded me a little bit of I Cannot Reach You. Always a good thing. 
Girl: I like you. 
Sakae: sorry, not intersted 
Girl: what am I lacking? 
Sakae: a dick 
What you mean it didn’t go that way?
Happy Ending (Korea Tues YT) 2 of 3 - Oh it’s lovely, exactly as I expect from Strongberry.
I gotta say all of the above are pretty neck & neck for top spots for entirely different reasons. BL is seriously giving right now!
Sahara-sensei to Toki-kun (Japan Fri Gaga) ep 8fin - In the end this is mostly a piece about courage, and the rewards and disappointments that being courageous entails. Sadly, I personally didn’t have the courage to enjoy it. Featuring a chaos nugget bad boy student who falls madly in love with his teacher, this should’ve been My Thing. But Japan failed me. It happens sometimes. The leads had no chemistry, and the age gap rather than being a narrative driver and source of conflict, was just ignored. 7/10 
Tumblr media
It's Done
What Did You Eat Yesterday Season 2 AKA Kinou Nani Tabeta? Season 2 (Japan Gaga) 10 eps - will binge when I have any spare time. 2024 is crazy busy for me so far.
The Servant and the Young Master - from Vietnam so I assume it's on YouTube. I never even noticed. Anyone got a link?
Began Beginning (Myanmar YouTube) - Is TRUST Entertainment bringing us the first ever Burmese BL? I don't know if it's really the first, but @heretherebedork vouched for it, so I will give it a watch through.
The Whisperer (Thai Horror) - @all-you-had-to-do-was-neigh commented with the following: "MASSIVE content warning for extreme ableism, homophobia, and rape plots done for shock value. I don't recommend it, and if any of your followers decide to watch it proceed with caution."
So... yeah, I won't be watching it.
Tumblr media
It's Airing But...
[NO INTERNATIONAL] Cherry Magic (Sat YouTube) ep 3 of 12 - yeah Japan put the smack down on our boys. Sadness. You can use a VPN if you like. Read all about it here.
Ossans Love Season 2 (Japan Gaga) - 5 years later, will anything have changed? This is Japan so… probubly not. I won't be watching this. I disliked Season one and actively hated the follow ups. No thank you.
Playboyy (Thurs Gaga) 14 eps - Dear Playboyy, it's not you, it’s me… I hate you. You’re about as deep (and as palatable) as a shot glass of cum. While I'm sure you’re someone’s kink, you're my weakest link. Goodbye. I DNFed this at ep 5. Frankly I'm impressed with myself for getting that far.
7 Days Before Valentine (Weds WeTV) 12 eps - Giving me Luminous Solution vibes. I'm waiting to binge if safe.
Dead Friend Forever (Thai Sat iQIYI) 12 eps - horror, meh, tell me if it's worth my time?
Time the series (Tue Gaga/YT) 10 eps - dropped it at ep 4.
Next Week Looks Like This:
Tumblr media
Still Coming in Feb
2/17 A Secretly Love (Thai WeTV) - Khonprot, a third-year head hazer of the engineering faculty, has a secret crush on Pluem, a tsundere fourth-year head hazer. Over the years, he's seen Pluem cycle through many girlfriends. Recently, after a public breakup, however, Khonprot thinks maybe a boy has a chance.
2/24 Unknown (Taiwan Youku) 12 eps - Older brother tough guy criminal breadwinner looks after his sister and defacto adopted little brother. Little bother falls in love with him and is sent away after a stolen kiss. But when he comes back…
Upcoming BLs for 2024 are listed here. This list is not kept updated, so please leave a comment if you know something new or RP with additions.
THIS WEEK’S BEST MOMENTS
Tumblr media
GMMTV is officially stalking me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I do love OffGun's particular brand of domesticity. It's fun that they and TayNew are both getting to be so soft on our screens. It's very comforting, like a family favorite warm toddy. (Cooking Crush)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Korea, what's gotten into you? Are you feeling okay? Such bold weaponized gayness isn't like you at all. (Love for Love's Sake)
Tumblr media
The Sign, forcing me to ask the eternal question.
Tumblr media
I LOVES THEM YOUR HONOR. (Pit Babe)

Literally I don't understand how the Ultrakill devs managed to make a game with a pretty bare minimum in plot/dialogue/characters and have it be the queerest-feeling piece of mainstream media I've consumed in what feels like forever
Like my other favorite video game ever is Mass Effect, and when I play the Mass Effect trilogy, games with plenty of gay romance and gay sex in it if you seek it out (don't get me wrong, it has its ups and downs with queer rep overall but overall I would consider it Pretty Good in the gay/lesbian/bi rep category) I'm like 'yaaay gay people :)))' and it makes me happy. None of the wlw romance options really appeal to me personally (though Garrus is a queer romance option to me bc you're banging an alien, no I will not elaborate) but it's like, a nice view of the future where homophobia doesn't exist and you can just be in lesbians with a blue not-really-woman and it's not a big deal. And I really love that! Makes me happy!
But then I play Ultrakill, which technically has 0 gay sex or romance in it (that we see. and even that could be argued but that's not the point here), and start emotionally foaming at the fucking mouth throwing up. Like both are Really Good but Something about Ultrakill just resonates so viscerally with me I think it altered my brain chemistry. I don't know what they put in this game that made it hit the exact resonant frequency of some queer freak part of my brain but it fuckin' did something. It just blows my mind how much Ultrakill managed to make me feel with (comparatively) so little compared to other media I enjoy (Mass Effect, Star Trek, etc). I got this game like 3 weeks ago thinking it would just be a fun shooter game where I play as a silly little robot guy, and instead since then I've made more art inspired by it in a shorter time than like? Anything I've ever played/watched/read before?? Did they put gay cocaine in here??????????
(I don't say this in an attempt to pit them against each other or even really compare them btw Mass Effect is still one of my absolute favorite games of all time and they're completely different genres with a completely different ethos behind their worldbuilding and character development)
But like. What the fuck. I don't know how I would explain to someone like my mother that whatever Ultrakill has going on feels gayer to me than like actual gay porn bc I feel like it makes me sound insane but also I'm right

taylor: repressedly bisexual but the repression itself is also repressed in that she subconsciously feels the way she thinks abt women is strange (bc she subconsciously feels / fears / believes that she herself is inherently strange) but justifies & then re-justifies it to herself every few weeks .. to everybody else this just looks like her glancing at lisa’s tits & then thousand-yard staring off into the distance for a solid five minutes .. wildbow made her a trans girl on accident (like he did w most beautiful & true things in worm) but nobody tell him because he does not deserve to know
brian: i do legitimately believe he is both straight & cis bc if he wasn’t he would palpably b much stranger abt manhood & masculinity than he already is in-text .. he has considered kissing a man at least once but figured after hefty deliberation that sort of thing just wasn’t for him .. however i do think cherish should have called him gay not bc he rly is but bc it would have made him pause & afterwards fall into a period of rumination & actually i think this is how his summer of the forest could have happened
lisa: in love w taylor in every sense of the phrase but i wouldn’t say “attraction” itself is a factor there / that love isn’t predicated on romance or attraction or what one might typically attribute to love .. sexuality isn’t something she herself would rly care to put labels on nor something i think has much merit here but for shorthand i would just call her an arospec / acespec / etc lesbian .. cis but i think the only value gender has to her is wrt its social connotations (in business & persona) .. if she woke up one day in magical boy universe i think she would just adapt & adjust but she would grieve the loss of being able to go “look at this sweet face! would this girl lie to u :(” when that girl is in fact lying to u
rachel: butch lesbian & it is embedded into every aspect of her character & i will never ever ever ever listen to that foul man’s words he doesn’t know her he doesn’t even know her he is nothing he is nothing he is nothing he is nothing he isn’t real he can’t hurt me he isn’t real he isn’t real & canada is an elaborate ploy by the first pioneers of the parahumans wordpress to account for worm’s esoteric undetermined origins
aisha: bisexual (for realsies apparently) but i don’t think it rly comes into play much other than as cudgel for her jests & japes bc she will b hung up on her best friend from when she was 13 until the day after she dies .. whether or not she was srs when she rated cherie fuck in fuck marry kill is up to u tho i do think she has a tendency to either dramatise or just completely make things up when talking abt her own attraction / preferences for eeshy reasons (see: asking defiant is the robot pussy was rly that good) .. gender is whatever she feels like in the moment
alec: i think i have to delegate to lakesbian here seeing as they r his professor / lawyer / doyen / ambassador .. my only thoughts on this matter r i don’t think u could even call him a hedonist sexuality-wise bc there is absolutely zero demonstration of him expressing attraction / engaging in any romantic or sexual pursuits based off sheer opportunity & desire for pleasure besides vague comments abt his sexual abuse as a child

I love My Adventures with Superman because besides the show treating the Man of Steel with a lot of respect and dignity it does the same with Lois and Jimmy
As someone who has always loved Superman, I remember when I was younger the general audience seemed despise the two in some way
They’d always look as those two characters as Clark’s “useless friends” that got in the way and always needed saving
And here’s a show that’s putting the two of them front and center alongside Superman and each of them are on a journey of their own
And like our beloved Superman, when the chips are down you just know that both Lois and Jimmy will step up in the face adversity no matter how bad things looks for them
I love it
I love how the show shows how much it would hurt if someone you trusted kept something really big from you
And I love that the show isn’t making Clark the bad guy for doing so. It shows how it would be to be on both ends and how difficult it could be to understand one another at first
Also I just love the fact they added a gay German robot and gay French gorilla to the show right after that whole controversy with Lois on Twitter
It’s like they knew to ween out the fake Superman fans before adding in this sweet gay romance

The Strawhats in general have the BIGGEST LGBT+ energy.
Sanji? Closeted Bi ((maybe transfemme))
Ussop? Somebody look me in the eye and say he wouldn't be AT LEAST an ally, ideally bi/pan panic lad
Chopper? Yeah he's well read. He's also a reindeer. He's an animal. Biology dictates the survival of a species is reliant on reproducing but yeah homosexuality and gender changes occur in nature, why would he be upset about that?
Luffy? Aroace king. Squishes abundant. Romance? Weird. You know what isn't weird? Loving your friends.
Zoro? That's a gay man if I've ever seen one.
Vivi? Bisexuality win. She and Nami are long distance.
Robin? She doesn't really know what she is, she doesn't really look for labels, she's simply Vibing and Being Happy. Honestly? Queen shit.
Brook? He's a skeleton. He only has bones in his pants. Equal opportunity panty peeker.
Franky? Nonbinary specifically bc he thinks it's hilarious that his gender is "myeh" but he's a robot, the programming was binary, but HE'S NOT LMAOOOO ((Big Bro, but in a Vibe Way, not a Gender Way, you know how it is-))
Jimbei? Aroace uncle who is sex neutral and will throw down if anyone hurts his kids crewmates/captain.
There's no room for bigotry in their ship and anyone who tries will catch EVERYONE'S hands
I have some different headcanons but you're so real for all of these !!! Gayest crew in the seas and that's hard because all pirates are queer 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

You watch Bang Brave Bang Bravern and you ask yourself, how much of this was intentional and how much casual.
The girl in the box is an actual child. We see her grown up in the future, and her face and body changed, she is a child and she get adopted and watch cartoon and does not have a romantic relationship with one of the leads. But her body is still sexy, and in the beach episode she have a bikini and low waist jeans, and her tits giggle, and it is normal for tits to giggle, but was this fanservice for the classic mecha public, was it a critic to how these character are represented. She is a baby, but we see a shot of her ass, and we are not sure if the very cis very male director didn't do this scene as a consolation price to the men forced to draw oiled abs and men grinding on each others.
The CIA waterboard the protagonist, and it is a traumatic experience not even being saved and thanked can cancel out. There are two other waterboarding scenes after, one against a child and one against a giant robot. They both play comedically, because they both fail. It is just to show how the genre of the story changed, from real robot to super robot, or does it means more? Is it a critic to the system of torturing people to get information, because it will never function, and maybe waterboarding a giant robot will not get you anything, or is it just for laugh?
And you ask yourself, why are you asking these questions on a gay mecha anime, and well, i would not ask these questions if it was not a gay mecha anime.
It is a show decided to change genre three times and mix real robot and super robots in a gay romance that save the worls, and it is meant to be a love story to the old super robot genre, and to aks the question of why these type of stories exists. Maybe i should ask myself these questions.
They reference evangelion, but they are not able to give a woman character space, and you have no idea if it is for parody or for being unable to do it. There is an autistic fujoshi, and she is only an autistic fujoshi. There is the woman love the protagonist, and she save his life, but she is not important to the plot to she stay on the sideline. They tell you the military is not that bad, and you close your eyes to it because it is set in a not so far future and maybe things have changed, and than they give you two men singing a love song to each others shirtless.
And then the story tell you that the desire to die honorably, the very japanese feeling of getting out in a spectacle, is not good. It is actually what the evil guys want, to die honorably. You deserve to live, and you deserve to want to live. You can say no and hope in a future with the men you love. And if you want to live any diegetic explication for the super robot effects will disappear, and people will be able to transfer you the energy to resuscitate the commands and transform in the final gold form, and your hairs get longer and you can now defeat the final main guy, a giant angel created from the deaths of your other enemies. And since now everything does not need anymore to make sense, your partner is send to you again, for a third time, and you want to kill him for what he put you thought but you take his hand and the sky is blue and everyone is happy and the world is saved.
Where does the comedy end. Where do the serious thoughts start. How does the fanservice, and which kind of fanservice, control the plot. And it is a gay mecha show.

Can you share more of the Murder Drones stuff? Headcanons, thoughts, sennarios?
*Deep breath in*
Contains: Lgbtq+, vore, ranting, abuse mentionsTHIS IS LONG!
HEADCANONS FOR THE SILLY LIL MURDER ROBOTS :D
Let's start with the background characters!
I think Lizzy would be lesbian. Ofc, crushing on V. I also think she'd have an extreme soft spot for anyone who treated her with respect out of hey, Lizzy's actually pretty cool and not heck, if I don't be nice she'll spread a petty rumor- (she has and will do it again)
Thad.. Thad's gay. He is.. SO GAY. I know he's a 'jock' and all that, but the way he act is kinda soft, I wouldn't be surprised if he fell for the rival school's quarterback-
Now for the main 3 Disassembly Drones!
I don't have any actual headcanons for J because A, I don't like her.. at all- and B, she barely shows up-
But I think J would be one of those extremely straight, extremely Christian people. She's okay with LGBTQ+ people, but she's never held hands with any woman other than her mother. Do Murder Drones have mothers like Worker Drones? N is straight! I love him to death and I think him and Uzi's relationship in the series is adorable, though I don't see him being attracted to any other gender.
I have a feeling that N may have had some cheap programming for him to be so soft on Worker Drones. Perhaps he was made fast using any part available, or maybe repaired, and they used some Worker Drone parts to fix him?
V is such a damn lesbian and you cannot tell me that she doesn't has a crush on Lizzy-
I don't know what it is about the Vizzy ship, but I love it. It might just be my love for gay, interspecies romance, but... gimme all of it!
Now for the others!
Tessa is straight, though that.. doesn't really matter anymore considering she's like the only human left-
Tessa has been both verbally and physically abused from just being overly scolded in her childhood, to being locked/chained in the library/basement/wherever V and her were in Ep. 5, Home-
Uzi is pansexual- she'll take anyone as long as it's genuine love, since she's been starved of affection for so long (Khan I'm gonna beat you up for this)
Uzi bit Rebecca once when she was mocking her. It's canon now.
Doll.. I think she'd be extremely against love and she'd think she's asexual, but then she has love at first sight with someone and she panics.
I have a feeling she has a Gacha 2019 backstory- her mom loved her and her dad couldn't care, and oh no, here comes V killing them both, and now she's the quiet kid
Nori has no clue what her sexuality is. That was an arranged marriage between Khan and her; I don't think she'd actually fall for someone that interested in doors and doors only- but then again, Khan got more adventurous in Ep. 7, so that could show how he was before Nori 'died', which in that case she would have happily indulged in her crazy drawings with him.
"ACCORDING TO MY WIFE'S CLOSET, THE PLANET IS GOING TO START EATING US SOON."
Khan is doorsexual straight. He's a simple man, despite his... affection for doors. I don't have anything on him other than he has an overwhelming guilt for having to 'put Nori out of her misery' and being a horrible dad to Uzi.
Yeva doesn't get much screentime, so.. I don't have any real headcanons for her.. I got nothing :P
Scenarios:
Once V gets regrown or respawned or whatever, I think she'd get immediately hug-tackled by Uzi. She's definitely shown some growth in personality in a good way.
N would let Uzi shove herself down his throat because A, is this an act of love? B, he's too shy to stop her, and C, oh hey she tastes nice
Nori could shrink and then eat Uzi like the mother she is
or vice/versa, Uzi finds Nori and eats her to keep her safe
I is kinda drained so uh yeah that's all the stuff I can spew, thank you for asking this and sorry-

There's a bit in the Transformers comics where there used to be girl Cybertronians, but then they all slowly forgot that women existed because the entire species had a form of creeping memory loss
(because one of their gods shot another with an amnesia gun and caught the whole planet in the effect by accident, it makes a little more sense in context)
So as a quirk of population dynamics, there just...stopped being girl Cybertronians. Until they started encountering species that had genders and some Transformers got dysphoric and went "You know what, we literally build new bodies for ourselves, I'm going to remake myself as a woman, it feels right"
(Also there were lost colonies that had different population dynamics so THEY never forgot about girl robots existing, one of the major ones is almost entirely women and BOY was everyone surprised when they reestablished contact with Cybertron)
But also because the cast of characters they had to draw from is SO boy-heavy, the writers of the IDW comics just went "welp, gay is the norm on Cybertron, because we want to write romances too".
(Also, this one dude who is kind of fundamental to Transformers comics but is just weirdly uncomfortable with writing women, Simon Furman, put ONE girl Cybertronian in, Arcee... But had her being a woman specifically because a mad scientist turned her into one against her will)
(Later on they quietly retconned it as 'she was trans and dysphoric as hell and went to him for help, she wanted to be a woman but he also experimented on her, THAT'S why she hates his guts, she likes being a woman'. Also, they had her get together with this cute lady from a colony who turns into a flying car and it was adorable.)
(But also Arcee in that continuity is Galvatron's twin and was a warlord for literally millions of years so the first official trans Transformer is an incredibly badass violent ancient the color of spilled blood [energon] who carries around flaming swords and got to close the book on the whole comics continuity when the publisher ended that universe's story)
Tumblr media
(The other two most notable trans Transformers are a doctor/thief who turns into a biplane and her tiny scrappy wife/accomplice who turns into a backpack)
first of all, yay infodumps in my inbox ^_^
second of all, holy shit i love her actual girlboss and i love that they just made them all gay
i want more violent trans robots like her and Justice

Each day i am more fucking sure that at first, they were going to push Yosuke as the romance option like in p3 is Aigis and p5r is Sumire, not only for the obvious stuff (constant flirting from Yu's part, Teddie believing this two were a thing at the beggining of the game, they being close friends no matter what the player does, when Yosuke asks you about what's your type and you choose neither, the game will mention how you told your true feelings, etc...) But also something that i noticed about the other ships that they push you to get, the biggest example is Aigis, who showed to be a robot with lack of human emotions that came to understand what it means to be alive, from an apathic robot, to someone with a big heart that can call herself human, even if she's not physically one
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The thing is that she shares a thing in common with Makoto, Makoto started as an apathic man, that didn't wanted to die, but didn't had strong feelings to "live" neither, they both found what was precious in life, but still accepting the final day of life, death.
They parallel each other in a way and somehow, they helped each other to grow, even if it isn't noticed as much in the game, it's noticeable in the anime specially, Makoto is the reason Aigis is "alive" while Aigis is what Makoto needed
Tumblr media
But how it's related? Easy, how they handle the "love interest", someone that parallels the mc, a relathionship that fits the message of the game, a relathionship where both parties help the other to grow, who have this 3 in common the most? 𝙔𝙤𝙨𝙪𝙠𝙚
Yosuke's social link is about him finally finding somewhere he truly belongs where he doesn't feel alone, bc his shadow himself mentioned "you act happy and carefree to hide the fact that you are scared of being alone" but after Yu came in, he finally found himself comfortable, Yu is the reason he find himself in terms with inaba, why he found a place he could truly belong, like if the city didn't meant to him as much as Inaba now
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What about Yu? Yu has a very similar parallel to Yosuke, someone who the city didn't exactly meant something to him, who was alone and was afraid of his own insolation, that's why, he truly thought he was empty, he's afraid of losing those that matters to him, like Yosuke said at the end of his social link, the power to protect those who matter, "friends, family...and you".
And no, this is not one-sided, Yu is constanly thanking Yosuke for being there in anime adaptations and the game itself, Yosuke is also the only one who knows him enough to wait for him after going after Adachi alone, he was hurt, he was maybe angry, but he wanted to let him know, that he can trust him.
And let's not talk about this, who was the one who was always saving Yu from darkness in the anime? Who they would 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙩 to be the one who saves him in his shittiest moments like Aigis did to Makoto?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That's right
As for something that fits perfectly with the message of the game, this game talks about self-discovery, about self-acceptance, about maturity, about the "truth", and in this case, we are talking about two teenagers, one very agressive towards one of his friends for the possibility of him being gay, but as the game pass, even if he's still kind of an ass to him, he's chiller about it, two teenagers who started the first social link in the game talking how they will work together to find the truth and of course, how one of them discovers how he really feels, something warm, something he didn't wanted to accept, but for his own maturity ("i have been putting all my attention for the murders, to avoid having to confront myself"), he has to accept that:
Tumblr media
TL;DR: Yu and Yosuke's relathionship feels more natural than the girls bc they actual put some effort into it like with aikoto, they parallel each other, they help each other, and they represent the themens of the game perfectly
TL;DR2: Removing the romance route was a mistake

((you think some of my ninjago character takes are insane you are not ready for the ball Im about to drop. Ninjago Sexualities HERE WE GO:
Zane: whatever equates to 'straight' for a robot. Hes not ace. Hes also not the robot equivalent of aromantic either. He fell for Pixal at first sight I think he can do it again.
Jay: Bi and he's Demiromantic.
Cole: pan. He knows the romance game but he doesn't play it too often.
Kai: ace as beans are you kidding me.
Nya: another bi lad fellas. Aromantic tho, she knows the game but she doesnt feel for it.
Wu: I think wu transcends love labels, but to get close its probably demisexual.
Garmadon: thinks hes straight but if only because Misako is the only one hes ever had a crush on. Also didnt pick up on clouses tension, probably for the best.
Pixal: bisexual, or a robot equivalent. Her oreintation is machines actually but I dont even know where to begin labelling for that.
Dareth: Thinks hes bi if only because he has a crush on Gayle but all of his relationships have been with other dudes.
Ronin: Gay and probably panromantic.
Vania: shes the tripple A person and I love her for that.
