“How can you write romance or smut when you’re aroace?”
Well, apart from aro & ace being spectrums and all the nuances that come with them—I also write about murder even though I’ve never planned or committed one. I write about cannibalism even though the idea of eating other people grosses me out. I write about brothers fucking even though I don’t have siblings and if I did I wouldn’t be into incest.
I think you're just forgetting the fundamentals of fiction which is that IT’S NOT REAL and that authors often write about characters that are very different from themselves.

okay let's play the game:
✨FLIRTING OR FRIENDLY✨
(because I desperately need to know this for my own sanity)
when she compliments you on your form in the gym everyday no matter what exercise it is
when she holds the door open for you every morning because she gets there before you
when in a middle of a conversation with someone else and you are in the vicinity, she asks you what your opinion is on the subject
when you tell her that you're gay, she stays on the topic for a good while after you tell her
when she goes out of her way to be playful aggressive with you in practice
when she manages to always be somewhere near you whenever she can
IS SHE BEING FRIENDLY OR FLIRTY?
please help! i'm going insane

How bout brott (brick x scott)
OOH OKAY. ok ok
So I haven't seen a lot of this ship because I don't actively look for it - especially because I haven't seen ROTI in a long while - BUT. I've always loved Brick and Scott respectively because like.
Ginger bastard farm boy. Rat boy. Absolute shitbag. I love him. I loved his design and I loved the way he just Was, y'know?
And BRICK. oh my god SCRINGO. I loved his voice and his mannerisms and his rivalry with Jo was always so fun to see. He reminded me a lot of my dad. The military guy who's secretly a huge dork.
I think they'd have a pretty interesting dynamic, what with Brick following his moral code and Scott being a manipulative rat bastard. I can see Scott playfully teasing Brick about constantly following his moral code. And I also think it's a cute idea for Scott to like... angrily gush about Brick in the confessionals while Brick is completely oblivious
And I feel like Brick would struggle with his feelings. Like. Maybe Scott does something that makes Brick feel butterflies in his stomach and Brick just "????????????????" Brick complains about the way Scott treats others and it dissolves into Brick appreciating how strategic and tactical Scott gets.
All in all, I like it! I'd love to see more content for it!
