if you see a male character kiss a male character, you assume they are gay.
if you see a female character kiss a female character, you assume they are a lesbian.
if you hear a character say they don't feel like their gender, you assume they are trans.
so why do a-spec characters have to jump through so many loops?
a character saying they've never had a crush or don't want a relationship or that they don't understand romantic love is so often ignored or used as fodder for other queer or autistic headcanons (reinforcing stereotypes that aroace people are secretly gay or always autistic)
why is it that our stories are always "up to interpretation"? why do we have to wait for the words aromantic or asexual to be said to be taken seriously? why is it that even when characters say they don't want relationships, fans will scream and cry about sex/romance favourable aspecs and qprs?
when it comes to gay and trans characters, even the likes of bisexual lighting is often treated as though it canonises their sexuality. for aroace characters, even the most explicit coding possible is swept under the rug in favour of other "interpretations"
i'm so tired of fighting for representation just to have it ignored and minimised by fans. let characters be aroace. please.

I love being loud about my aroace characters and I plan on keeping it that way! You can fight me for them if you want them any other way. Not all of my aroace characters are autistic- it just so happens that the two in our first season are... Anyways here's a quote:
ZENITH
[soft, slightly frustrated]
I'm not sure I… work like that? Never given much thought to… general preference, but romance doesn't- appeal to me as much as it should i guess? Yen thinks I might be aroace like her… Labels frustrate me.

Hi uh my friend got me into this podcast like last week and i was wonderinf if you guys were gonna do like VA applications at any point
Hello! We're glad the word about our show is getting out and we hope you're enjoying it!
There's pretty much a guaranteed voice-acting casting call for each season no matter how small! Our next casting call out will be for season 3 as we work further ahead behind the scenes. At our current rate we probably open up for casting once a year!
So stick around and you'll come across a new shiny call soon enough!
(we also still have our season 1 qna form open: https://forms.gle/vpwrR8sxf8PUQwqo9)

Preparing for this to get confusing.... Thanks for the tag!!
Last song: am i a puppet by Emily Jeffri (good for inspo)
Favorite colour: green (can you tell?)
Currently watching: you... no me.... wait who is that?
Sweet/savory/spicy: SWEEEEET
Relationship status: Trying to collect enough people for a dnd group
Current obsession: This podcast and another unnamed show I'm working on about polyamory, vampires, vampire hunters, and blatant autism (is that something people would be interesting in listening to?)
Last thing you googled: references for art
Continuing on the note from ethics cuz I agree: I like the idea of bringing other podcast ppl in, but no pressure, I know not everyone likes to have this on their podcast page (or may have been tagged already!): @mxbadluckpod @lemon-astra @hangingslothcentral @amongthestackspodcast @theheartpyre
Tag game! nine people you’d like to get to know better
I was tagged by the lovely @podcast-bookclub and @thenightpost! Starting my own thread so I can tag them both and also so the threads don't get too long
Last song: Bend by AthansMusic off his debut album Limbo, an album I'm definitely normal about and definitely didn't write 5000 words on
Favorite color: Green! Forest green specifically (which I think makes sense since I'm Pine)
Currently watching: Rewatching all of Buzzfeed Unsolved (again)
Sweet/savory/spicy: spicy food my beloved
Relationship status: Trying and failing at Hinge
Current obsession: Limbo, that album I'm totally normal about I mentioned before. Also Stardew Valley. I play Stardew and listen to Limbo it's a great system
Last thing you googled: largest rodent in North America (its the beaver)
Tagging (if you want!): @souloperatorpod @grottopod @jaz--hands @winterstaryu @felixcosm @fortunechaos @baseballboots @fenraheart @moookar
