#anyway AGAIN the only 100% canon identity for Riz

[sorry-i-like-romantic-fabriz]

Can someone confirm that the entirety of Baron's scenes are in this clip? If so, then there's SO many ways you can interpret Riz and Baron beyond "Riz is AroAce and wants absolutely nothing to do with romantic relationships".

Same thing regarding the conversation with his dad.

The "ace talk" basically starts around 20 minutes in, and Riz only discusses his lack of sexual attraction. Romance isn't even brought up, just sex.

Again, I'm not denying Riz's possible aromantic identity. However, as many fans have pointed out many times, lack of desire/interest in romantic relationships doesn't mean a total refusal or disgust of them. To claim there is only one way for Riz to be AroAce, or that a single person's interpretation is more valid because they feel strongly about it, does nothing but dismiss the experiences of fellow Ace and/or Aro folks.
