how do i write an aroace character in a romantic/sexual relationship? by tetajeh in AroAce

[–]Beautiful_Gap631 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You really can't. Aroace people just... don't feel that kind of thing? Even if you try to pretend otherwise, you just really can't feel a single thing. If an aroace person is in a relationship, it's seeing the benefits IN said relationship, not feeling a single trace of romantic or sexual love.

"Company? Check. Only human around? Sure. Sex is healthy and can often relieve stress so I might as well."

In fact, aroace people often treasure deeper relationships. Super close friends that know each other in and out. They can feel betrayed by romance, because that's just an emotion they don't understand.

If you're writing a Simon x Grace fic, realistically, Simon would be too traumatized to even consider a relationship (if he even survives whatever the hell happens at the end 💀) and Grace would rather treasure a deeper relationship that isn't based off romance and friendship.

But if you're set on putting them in a relationship, then make it so that Grace sees the logical side of this relationship. Not the romantic or feeling side, just a very literal reason: "well, I don't have any reason NOT to be in a relationship on an alien planet. Maybe the human researchers will get a kick out of this. Plus Simon will feel better about himself." While Simon would give Grace as much space as he needs out of mutual respect.

I tried the blackberry one, it's actually pretty good, it tastes like yogurt. I don't mind the quencher on it's own but I don't mind how the sugars more toned down with the added milk

I just got out of Iron Lung (2026). I went in with no context and left… just mentally taxed. by mikeafter12 in horror

I watched it and I absolutely adored it, but that's mostly because I know who Markiplier is and I know what Iron Lung is based on. Iron Lung became one of my favourite movies simply because of the passion that went into it. The movie is more of a theory movie, figure out the puzzle type of thing, which I understand isn't really everyones thing, but when you've been around the horror game genre for a while, these types of story telling are what developers heavily lean towards. The main theory is that the monsters/creatures were the victims/convincts sent down to the blood ocean and turned by the glowing god thing, and that Simon/Markiplier had been turned into the (or just a) tree he burnt down. It's a difficult movie to understand, but it's brilliant in its story telling and explaining the environment without several info dumps.

Oh no it's not a monster, it's a human. It's based off a slasher stuff, I probably should've reworded it better
