#my stupid bucket hat and endless enthusiasm for bug questions captivated him

[whatisamildopinion]

being aroace is so funny sometimes because I genuinely just like. forget?? that people can be experiencing Attraction. like, today my friends and I went to tour a butterfly garden and was just having a grand old time, asking questions left and right, like, "yay yippee the tour guide is dropping his customer service voice!!!! I am making a friend!!!!" and then my friend was like "oh my god Ella his voice changes when he talks to you, he totally thinks you're cute." like. I just straight up forget that's an option sometimes. and that's so funny to me
