#aro patches

[aroworlds]

I thought I might also show off some of my cross-stitch patches during @aggressivelyarospec's Aggressively Arospectacular, especially my collection of quoi, nebula and vague patches (as an aro who floats about said trifecta of identities because comprehending attraction and my relationship to it is difficult).

I do have more: these are just the patches I have yet to attach to my backpack and jacket. It's just so much less fun to sew my patches onto things than it is to sew the patches, so I have a huge backlog!

[image description: a collection of cross-stitch patches in allosexual aromantic--green, light green, white, yellow and gold--and finished with hand-embroidered edges. Patches include pineapples, dragons, hearts, rainbows, square and zigzag flags, arrows and the words "alloaro", "allosexual" and "pride".]

Because my main project for @aggressivelyarospec's Aggressively Arospectacular is all about the aromantic flag, I thought I'd add some yellow and gold to proceedings with a photo of some of the allo-aro cross-stitch patches I've made over the years.

I do have more: these are just the patches I have yet to attach to my backpack and jacket. Is it more fun to sew the patches then it is to sew the patches onto something else? Absolutely!

So I literally woke up and came downstairs to make this set of patches. @urbanprole is in the middle of like 3 other projects so these will get test-stitched and photographed when she has a hot minute, but like.

They're about 3" x 3" so you can stack up flags on your arm, backpack, w/e.

(The colors look a little wonky bc it's just a mockup for the embroidery machine, and the way it displays colors has only a passing resemblance to how those colors will look stitched out.)

This week is Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week, so I celebrated by making an aromantic pride patch. An aromantic person experiences little to no romantic attraction, i.e. crushes, falling in love. Some may engage in romantic relationships anyway, while others perfer not to. Personally I'm aromantic asexual (aroace), meaning I don't experience sexual attraction either. I have never dated or been in a romantic/sexual relationship, and never wanted one either. I refer to myself as self-partnered, because single tends to imply that one is looking for a partner.

A friend of mine asked me the other day whether, once team RWBY get out of the Ever After, where do you think they’ll end up in Remnant?

They can’t go where they were when they fell, because they were in the central location which is a void. They could end up in Vacuo, which would be convenient, or what’s left of Atlas which is where the portals started... Then my friend asked what if they end up somewhere they feel a connection to since the Ever After is emotions/sentiment-driven - so like Beacon (and search for the Beacon relic), Patch or their respective homes? So in essence the first part of the story would be them getting to where they need to be and ease us into the bloated cast.

Bonus scenario beneath the cut that’s a funny Bumbleby headcanon for if they ended up in Patch that my friend is trying to turn into a comic sketch.

If they end up in Patch, we said the girls would likely need a night to at least restock and recuperate and might even give Yang the opportunity to get a new bike and the team new outfits (I’m cheering on for Blake to get a matching scarf with Yang). My friend pointed out that there’s two rooms, Ruby’s which has two beds and the one we saw Yang in which has one. 

While heading to the rooms, Ruby would excitedly be like, “Guys, what if we pull the mattresses in my room and have a sleepover like in Beacon!” and when she turns there’s an anime-style cut-out/blinking silhouette where Blake and Yang were standing moments ago and Yang’s door closing. Ruby’s like, “uhh... Did they hear me or...” before Weiss drags her away by her hood, head in her free hand, muttering, “yeah I’m NOT gonna be the one to explain this to you...”

Made us chuckle so I thought I’d share! Now let’s manifest it into reality. There are even more hilarious connotations to this if Summer Rose, Jaune and/or the Juniper end up with them.

Everyone calling aromantism punk on my last post. I see you, I hear you, and it's absolutely true

I literally have gotten back into punk rock and other genres I used to be really into upon discovering how punk aromantism is

It's inspired me to be passionate again and has healed some real wounds for me

Being a homophobe can be hard sometimes...

Again based on my own LGBallT-comic, as well as various comments I have seen around the internet... yes including that being a lesbian is a turn-off for guys...

This mentally plays in my head every single time someone takes pity on me for being aro/ace or someone tries to seduce me.

HeLp me.
