okay i've started watching fantasy high: junior year and it's . So Good so far. but i just have to take a moment to gush about how exciting riz is as aro rep???
like this is junior year, all his friends are applying to colleges, and he wants to make sure they stick together. i really hope they develop this further (and i'm kinda sure they will, given the way they've handled riz's romantic orientation in seasons past) but already this is leagues above any aro rep i've ever seen?? like yeah, a really common fear for aro folks is that their friends will get into relationships and move on.
amatonormativity kind of demands that people prioritize romantic relationships, and also sets getting married as an actual step someone has to take to fully grow up. and, ofc, once people are married it's the expectation that they spend most of their time with their partner. and i've had aro friends who have said that this societal expectation is so upsetting and anxiety inducing, because it essentially means that eventually they'll be left behind by friends as they get married and move onto the next arbitrary developmental stage of life. and the fact that riz is already grappling with that fear makes him feel so fucking real. he's not just a guy who happens to be aro, his aromanticism affects his fears and priorities, etc.
which is so real!! being aro and/or ace absolutely separates you from some huge societal assumptions many people take for granted and it feels refreshing to see people approach an aro character with that understanding

Need more mindmelded bad kid fics
These kids spent months in jail cells with eachother as the only age appropriate company.
They went through so much together
Give me them talking with only eyes
Give me them having no personal space
Give me them moving in unnerving sync
Give me them talking on each other Stimson and habits
Give me them finishing each other's sentences and speaking when the other can't

if you really think about it, kalina and the night yorb are like. kinda opposites. i mean, kalina loses power the more people who can see her at once. and. the night yorb gains power each time its name is said. idk. much to think about!

listen. if y'all aren't careful i might start exclusively posting about how much i like roy in the new teen titans series
like.
he's right for all of this. and also i appreciate his ladle jokes, even if no one else will
i think it's important to note that he's not a regular member of the titans at this point?? like he's literally come all the way from star city to visit his friends and so far AT BEST he's been ignored, and he's mostly getting accosted.
he just wants to eat his fucking soup and talk about the weather man.
the emergency alarm is going off. btw. if you even care. he's so funny TO ME.

An underrated line from FHSY is “I’m a living embodiment of someone betraying you.”
