Headcanoning older characters as aro and/or ace means so much to me. Like Lilith or Ford (I know it’s heavily implied with both of them, although to my knowledge, not outright confirmed?).

Anyway it’s so important to show that old + single =/= sad. To give characters like that happy endings. Bless their hearts. It just makes me feel so warm and fuzzy inside. You love to see it.

i mean yeah, billford becoming canon was unfortunately big aroace stanford erasure, and like… i’m not mad at the outcome…but…like…huge loss for the aroace community 😞✊😿

the beauty of aroaces characters that have SO MUCH love, that irradiates care on they own special way, that love the people around them SO SO SO MUCH that they can't barely say a word about it-

Another aroace Ford idea that came up. I just really like the idea of Ford going to Mabel for these types of things :’)

dont get me wrong, i like the ford² ship as much as anyone else, but if im being honest, i think that fiddleford and stan would be a much healthier relationship- fiddleford needs someone that is not so dedicated to his work or *cough* a ‘muse’(muse being a demonic triangle)- someone who is more financially stable and has a stable home, job, and life, someone LIKE STAN!!!! and i think ford just deserves a break from relationships . i fully support an aro ford. man tried having a relationship and fucked up majorly with bill . now he deserves to live the rest of his life in peace with his family !! platonic relationships only !!!

happy aromantic awareness week yall!!

[wackpedion]

nearly everyone in gravity falls is aromantic slash arospec in one way or another you cannot convince me otherwise. wendy? aro. robbie? aro. mabel? aro. ford? aroace. stan? aro. dipper? aro. hes also trans and autistic. fords autistic too. probably has npd too and also hes trans To Me. and also grenda is intersex. im right you agree

My current version, of my ever-evolving theory, on what constitutes "aromantic stories" is that first off, there's absolutely a wide spectrum between 1, "this is explicitly undeniably about aromanticism," and 2, "there sure is a noteworthy amount of aro subtext, but representing aros clearly wasn't the author's intent." But the spectrum is best completed not as a straight line, but as a triangle, where the 3rd point is "the story probably wasn't created with aromanticism at the forefront of anyone's mind, but was created with subverting particular expectations related to romantic relationships in mind." And in my experience, a lot of juicy aromanticism-related experiences that are underrepresented in their own right can lie in that third option, regardless of whether the characters are aro-spec or allo or kind of whatever you headcanon.

So, what does make a story on this spectrum "aromantic?" IDK, I wouldn't necessarily include all or most of the firm 2s (unintentional subtext) under the aromantic story mantle. But when you get into the gray areas that inch a little closer to 1 and 3, let alone the gray area between 1 and 3 where intent is ambiguous but ultimately may not matter, it makes sense that different people will have different takes.
