Something Extraordinary

historical platonic-romcom

an aromantic woman tired of feeling unworthy when the people closest to her leave her behind for romance, and a gay man in unrequited love who is planning on giving up and marrying a woman in misery and drunkenness

she kidnaps him the day before the marriage to stop him ruining his life, suggesting that they get platonically married instead - and on the ridiculous journey to scotland to elope, they have to convince each other if it’s what is best for them, and what they want out of life/love/and friendship

#something extraordinary #alexis hall #aroaessidhe 2025 reads #aromantic books #platonic-romcom that really delves into the characters and their relationship and it’s JUST what I crave so much #it’s the kind of aromantic narrative I want more of.#Someone who’s (mostly) content in their identity AND the narrative actively discusses and explores amatonormativity and being aro #(rather than just internalised arophobia; or aro but it’s barely part of the narrative)#I have read the first book in this trilogy and it was okay but not really my vibe; I skipped the second because of this.#I realise belle has some background development in that one but. well #I think this third book as the conclusion of her arc has the most important part of it to me #I appreciate how well this managed to have them both at separate points have to convince the other that eloping is a good idea #really digging into their characters and not feeling completely like ridiculous back and forth #(though of course it’s pretty ridiculous in many ways being the kind of book it is)#it’s very heavy on the witty regency banter which is fun to an extent but there’s a bit much for me - I guess I knew this going in #The pacing at the end is a bit weird with multiple timeskips.#I feel like it could have padded that out a little more and removed some of the earlier bits #Some of those parts like re: his parents felt like they could have used a bit More to them.#I also appreciate the ‘fuck you for planning to punish yourself by getting married to a woman without thinking about #what that’s like for her’ from MULTIPLE women lmao #aro woman x gay man friendships are very important to me. good dynamic.#anyway. did make me cry aromantically

idr if i said this already bc i think about it all the time but cater being casually physically affectionate + riddle being touch starved [and unaware of this fact about himself] is so real 2 me

#cayrid #not *necessarily* in a ship way but also does apply when i think about them ship wise and im tagging it anyway lol #i think cater could be platonically physically affectionate w/his friends in general #hugs and arm touches and stuff For Funsies #and riddle. ouguguughhfhg houhghh #baby. my son. his home life is not very loving. i doubt he was hugged much as a kid.#[SPOILERS FOR THE HEARTSLABYUL DREAMS IN B7 ->]#riddle's dream being about having a gentle loving parent and a happy family solidifies it for me #in addition to the way he ran and hugged trey when they arrived in his dream #like riddle in the dream context of a loving family being physically affectionate hooughh my god bro #and then later near the end!!! when they found riddle again!!!#trey and cater ran to him and CATER SQUEEEEZED RIDDLE IN A HUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BC HE WAS SO RELIEVED AND HAD BEEN SO WORRIED #ough they are so friends. validating me forever in cater giving hugs + cater and riddle having so much love for each other #sobs wails cries i love heartslabyul so much im going to be destroyed when the anime drops #anyway im writing fic rn and it's Not About Them Specifically but #well it is about riddle. and i of course have a heartslabyul scene in there. and i AM putting cater hugging riddle in there. for my health.

oh Red Son no-

#i like to headcanon that for years after dbk’s imprisonment #red son didn’t do anything but work on his engineering skills #or just wallowed within his home #pif didnt give a rats butt about what he was doing because she was already miserable dealing with other people #so red son didnt go out much to socialise or learn from the world #meaning there was a lot of things he didnt know about life and himself until after his father was freed #red son has never had any experiece with having feelings #romantic or platonic or anything. he only recognises familial love thats pretty much it #not because he doesnt feel them (duh) but because hes had no one to feel that way about #so becoming friends with goldendragon was pretty hard for him. but he still pulled through #but recognising his feelings for mk being more than that? that was the hardest yet (for everybody)#of course mei figured it out first. and eventually mk did too. but even red son had no clue until they both had to intervene #so red son realising he is no longer as straight as he once thought because of mk is a very real possibility LMAO #lmk #lego monkie kid #lmk fanart #mk lmk #lmk qi xiaotian #qi xiaotian #lmk red son #lmk spicynoodles #spicynoodleshipping #monkie kid spicynoodles

people love an "i'll take care of you" "it's rotten work" "not to me, not if it's you" character dynamic until the character who needs to be taken care of is disabled. then it's supposedly fucked up and toxic for a person to have to take care of someone else.

#eliot posts #this is continuing off that last post i reblogged #that time i was like ''aw tumblr is out of new posts for this character i like. reddit is empty too. lemme check twitter''#BIG MISTAKE #i had to see the hot take of #''it's fucked up to ship this because character A had to be character B's caretaker. that's basically slavery.''#LIKE BRUH???#have you. ever met a couple where one of them is disabled and needs a caretaker? bc that's a very real thing that happens and it's not toxi #honestly usually the risk in those situations is the power the caretaker nay have over their disabled partner #but that imbalance can be properly navigated #and is not a concern in these two characters' case bc there is a very clear mutual respect there #caregiver fatigue is a real problem too of course but that's ALSO something that can be successfully navigated #and in these particular characters' case doesn't seem like it would be an issue because like #character b also has professional caretakers who will likely continue to be part of his life if needed #(and the money to hire more if not)#like it's okay to not like the ship #maybe the age gap of someone in their 20s w someone in the equivalent of their 30s squicks you out #maybe you monogamously ship one or both of them w someone else #maybe you think their dynamic is way more interesting from a platonic angle than from a romantic one #maybe you just aren't interested in their dynamic #those are all fair points! i'm not even ride or die for that ship myself #but jesus fucking christ you don't gotta be ableist about it #oh or the equally bad take i saw on there of #''character a could never be attracted to character b. he just sees char b as a sick dying old dog that he needs to take care of''#like no! character a clearly respects and values character b! they are friends! the issue is just that YOU see character b as a dying dog.

Also i reaaallllllyyyyy hate the whole. Qunari don't have relationships <<< i agree with the breeding program dislike, but honestly i do find cool that the qunari culturally dont have romance and that aromanticism is the norm. i dont find that has to be dehumanizing (of course depending on you portray it) but that you can love your friends and people and have sex with them but there is no "the one" or an idea of having to be pair up is cool shit imo

NO EXACTLY LIKE. I think if it was just framed as that, in the aromanticism way, that relationships are not the end all be all and that you can just. have sex with a friend, it's something really cool. I think the issue is mostly how the games/media portray that? Because, this is how it reads to me, its like they're trying to say see the qun is so rigid, you cant even have a relationships its all organized by tamassrans. Like i think it maybe ties back with how. lowkey weird Bull's writing in regards to the Qun is, so that's how it came across, but i do agree that like, the qunari having a culture that is not so centered on romance and true love and that values platonic relationships just as much is really cool!

And i think it ties in with the qunari not having defined family roles like, all children are raised communally by the tamassarans anyways, so it makes sense that they'd also not having the views when it came to romance and such. Like, i fucking love that kadan is a term that you can use for literally anyone, you can use it for someone you're just really close friends with, or someone you have feelings for. I think it's all just how things are portrayed/spoken about.

#i think my thing is more that like i do like that aromanticism is kind of the norm #but i think the game portrays it in a weirddd way #bc like give it or take feelings are feelings so obviously it might happen that people in the qun do fall in love or smthg #but that culturally. its not smthg that's really like. expected and its this whole thing #its just. yeah it can happen who cares #i think them being majorly aromantic and that being sort of the reason why they're more casual about these sorts ot things (family friends #etc)#is very fun! i really like the idea that bc of this platonic relationships are just as valued #and that also you dont have to be so. rigid in your personal relationships #like you dont need to have the role of a parent or the role of a spouse you just. can have casual sex with a friend and be done with it #or you can give someone half of a dragon tooth and it means youll be together but its not a Whole Thing #and there aren't expectations #but then of course. bioware frames it in the WORST way possible #bc its kinda like. oh bc love is such a human condition lets alienate this group of people even more by saying they odnt have relationships #when its like. well maybe they dont see the need to #maybe they dont find the need to overcomplicate these sorts of things #its all in the framing

Thinking about a version of Hinny that tells a story about how naive idealized romance shatters and gets rebuilt stronger into a close platonic relationship

5 year old Ginny who grows up on stories of The Boy Who Lived and feels safe with the heroic character she imagines in her mind

8 year old Ginny who gets teased by her family when she blushes over The Boy Who Lived’s anticipated Hogwarts enrollment, who dreams about meeting her bedtime story protagonist

10 year old Ginny who puts a face to the legend and now thinks of Harry whenever she feels scared or unsure

11 year old Ginny whose admiration and grandeur around Harry boosts his pedestal impossibly higher when he saves her life in the chamber of secrets

12 year old Ginny who gets butterflies when she sees Harry in the halls and fantasizes about fighting alongside him, her hero is real and just as brilliant as she imagined him

13 year old Ginny who is surprised to find cracks in the polish, things that don’t make sense, who thinks Harry is unlike himself when he gets irritated and angry and acts carelessly towards his friends, even towards her

14 year old Ginny who lives the reality of fighting beside Harry and doesn’t get the same floaty feeling about it, who sees beyond the bedtime story and stares directly at the beaten down teenager in front of her who has more rage than he knows how to handle, who doesn’t make excuses when he snaps and makes wrong decisions, and who realizes Harry doesn’t shine as brightly when she looks at him

15 year old Ginny who now dreams of protecting Harry, who worries for him and what’s to come at the end of every remaining good day, who is stubborn and refuses to get behind the front line of battle, who gets annoyed with his stubbornness and meets his outbursts with a matching tone, who forgives him over and over and over because he means it when he says sorry and they all have more rage than they know how to handle

16 year old Ginny who bleeds and cries and screams and fights for the safety of everyone she loves, who looks at a broken and bloody Harry and sees herself, who knows every wonderful and horrible piece of him and would not have it any other way, who loves Harry with a fire that burns brighter than any childhood nightlight ever could, and who holds Harry close with the same ferocity she holds all of her brothers

#Harry Potter #Ginny Weasley #I like them as very close best friends and family #not that Harry Potter is short on platonic love stories lol I just really think it fits them #I’m pretty sure the canon is this but instead of brotherly love it rebuilds into a real romantic love #which idk #I had a lot of idealized childhood crushes #and I think that getting to know people and realizing they weren’t who I thought they were was an important part of my growing up #of course you’re in love with the person in your head you WROTE THE SCRIPT #but sometimes you get to have a deeper feeling from getting to love someone for who they are #even if it’s not in the same type of way #text post

CALLISTO: “There's a reason you can't allow you and your partner peace. It's your guilt, it motivates everything you do, torments you. Invite me into your soul and I can purge you of that guilt. I can cleanse you of that shame that drives you. I can give you peace if you let me. What's it gonna be, Xena?”

I go out of my mind with this episode sometimes. It’s just so damn powerful. Incredible writing. And again, I don’t know how anyone can watch an episode like this and not view it romantically. That’s the only way I can.

ok kind of an insane ask so feel free to ignore but would you be able to translate "友達バリア" by deco*27? i can't find any translations online and i wanna see if i'm right about the song kind of fitting the matsus... it's also a banger imo

- vocamatsu anon

omg.... tbh i have a feeling deco will make a video for this one which means we'll get an official english translation of it, rendering this completely redundant, but i'm really cheesed to have been asked, so i gave it a shot for you anyways <3

youtube

Friend-zoned, love fire, sparks flying HIBANA We're ready, set to lock horns, love's ultimate showdown I'm outmatched- but it's not over yet! I won't let this end! With a dazzling, never-give-up attitude, I'll break through your defenses!

The despair of never getting anything more of this Your behavior, nor what's going on in your head- I can't read it at all! I can't help but envy the kindness you radiate Omnidirectional compatibility- it's just not for me

Carefully-picked down-played words The outcome: A bloody heart True feelings double-crossed by embarrassment; how frustrating, I'm changing sides But that won't fill up my heart What I want is nothing more than to be by your side If you've got something to say, then say it- 'til I defeat you, that is! 3, 2, 1!

Friend-zoned, love fire, sparks flying HIBANA We're ready, set to lock horns, love's ultimate showdown I'm outmatched- but it's not over yet! I won't let this end! With a dazzling, never-give-up attitude, I'll break through your defenses!

I want you to like me! I want you to like me! Friend-zoned, love fire, hey, say "I give up"! With a dazzling, never-give-up attitude, I'll break through your defenses!

Fun things, good feelings- without you, they have no taste at all Sadness, jealousy- if they're cuz of you, then I don't mind them Let's throw down, bro! Better to regret doing it, than not doing it at all! A feeling like I won't need any special moves, YEAH I'm sure everything will be OKAY With an endless supply of love, you're undefeated, AYE Play dead, BYE BYE I'll be the one to throw the first punch

Friend-zoned, love fire, sparks flying HIBANA We're ready, set to lock horns, love's ultimate showdown The lonely and timid me is already no more! With a dazzling, blazing flair, I'll burn through your defenses!

Do you like me yet? Do you like me yet? Friend-zoned, love fire, now, let's immerse ourselves in love! With a dazzling, blazing flair, a never-ending HAO sweetener battle!

------

my notes:

my overall interpretation of this song is "I'm trying to break through the friend zone (friendship barrier) so that you like me instead of thinking of me as a friend", so any vagueness in translation went in that direction

The use of "lock horns" in the official translation snippet + the HAO motifs give me the mental image of like, a hand-to-hand kung fu battle, so I leaned towards that imagery whenever there was vagueness (as opposed to like, a military campaign, for example)

deco's official english translations tend to be very liberal, so i tried to keep my translation a little more literal

#translation #i dont really like the use of 'friend-zoned' for the official translation of this #in general deco's english translations seem to favor localizing over keeping original meaning which i usually support wholeheartedly #but i feel like their en localizations sometimes lack a colloquial understanding of how these terms come across to english speakers #like the Vibe. i dont know if they grasp the Vibe #like on the surface 'friend-zone' seems like a reasonable localization for this concept #(Actually why is the localization the adjective form? shouldnt it be the noun? tomodachi barrier = friend zone? well anyways)#term for when you can't advance a platonic relationship to a romantic one + the term 'zone' is often used in fighting and battles #but colloquially i feel like this term has more of an Incel Connotation #due to its use being most popularized among men who see women as a prize they can win if they put enough effort in #+ its usage furthering the underlying expectation that women should date a man because he likes her regardless of how She feels abt it #of coures i know this is not the literal definition but again. the colloquialism. the Vibe. i really value the Vibe in localization #it gives off more of a pathetic desperate entitled vibe than a determined lonely feisty vibe which is what i personally got from the song #but vibes are subjective of course and dependent on one's personal experience #and who knows maybe that IS what deco's going for. i may very well be missing some japanese colloquialism as well #anyways as to if this fits the matsus.... well. they dont really have any friends in the first place do they #except totoko who repeatedly and easily beats them in hand-to-hand combat #i guess it could be atsutodo if you were full of whimsy #(suddenly coming back into the room) BY THE WAY I HATE HAO #I THINK HE'S TRYING TO DO THE THING WHERE HE JUST MAKES UP WORDS/MEANINGS BECAUSE IT'S THE KANJI IN SUKI #IT'S JUST AN EXTREMELY COMMON CHINESE WORD AND HE'S USING IT IN WAYS THAT SOUND SO DUMB AND WEIRRDDDDDDDDD #“a never ending HAO sweetener battle” <- WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE HAO HAPPEN? DONT PISS ME OFF #IM LIKE PRETTY SURE HIS TRANSLATOR IS EN/CN/JP TRILLINGUAL TOO SO WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE HERE #anyways thank you for the ask. mwah. i hope u enjoy this

2025 reads / storygraph

Vagabonds!

contemporary fantasy (with some horror, scifi)

many lightly interconnected stories about various queer/trans people in Lagos who are considered vagabonds/outsiders

a fashion designer and her magical daughter, a driver for a powerful corrupt politician, the romance of two lesbian sex workers, fairygodgirls who deliver books to people who need them, a spirit of the city observing it all (and many more)

explores the rich world of queer life and resilience and existence in Nigeria

#Vagabonds!#eloghosa osunde #aroaessidhe 2025 reads #magical and beautifully written! very good!#explores a lot of different kinds of queer characters and narratives many with fantasy/supernatural elements #but also some horror/scifi and some stories are barely supernatural at all -#though of course many of the realities of the world we live in can feel magical/horrifying/dystopian so they fit together pretty seamlessly #it’s not quite a short story collection but not quite a traditionally connected narrative #I did lose track of some of the characters/stories a little #I think that’s just something that happens when I listen to books like this (big cast) as an audiobook. but a fantastic experience #also omg Pet reference! love that book #also - was pleasantly surprised to find an ace-coded character (& an aroace one maybe going by one paragraph in Gold’s chapter?)#in Wura- when her lover is explaining to her disbelieving therapist that their relationship was never sexual.#It’s only briefly explored but it’s nicely intertwined with the characters.#I find that most books like this that attempt to encompass the entire queer community tend to leave out aspec people -#or they just have a token mention but everything else is very allo-romance focused.#This book focuses just as much on the platonic/familial; community; and individual queerness; which I really appreciated #[not to say that this book necessarily encompasses the Entire community - i don't remember significant intersex or trans man chars?]#[but def mentions at least. it's mostly sapphic/lesbian focused overall. a lot of diversity regardless]#queer books #sapphic books #struggling to come up with ways to describe some of the stories since there's so many and i read this a week or 2 ago so i just grabbed the #ones from the blurb sorry lol.

#am really starting to wonder if women are even capable of experiencing friendship?#i can think of two totally platonic male friends in my life that i would consider myself “cosmically intertwined” with #like honestly i'd almost say the love i feel for those two men is deeper than any love i have ever felt for any girl #and i think it will remain that way until i find my wife #like....those are my bros #they're my brothers in a very real sense #i guess i'm realizing that this shit is a huge pet peeve for me #i think male friendship is a beautiful and sacred thing #and i think it's legitimately fucked how women just dismiss it #and there are so few good representations of it in popular media #we've got what....frodo and sam and achilles and patroclus?#but of course both of those are actually secretly gay too #and i'm being a bit facetious #like i'm sure women have friends #but then why do you have to dismiss/sexualize male friendships?#and like yeah yeah it's just a joke/it's not that deep/let people ship things/etc #sure whatever it's not even necessarily about this particular post #this is about a broader attitude -- one i mostly find in women -- and i know these people act like this about irl male friendships too #i've had it happen to me and a friend irl #and it's one thing if it's just a “ship” but i know many of these people insist that their “ship” is actually true/reality #it feels perverse when a group of girls are not-so-secretly spreading a rumor that you and your friend are gay for each other #and i'm a bisexual dude so i don't even have anything against gay sex #and i also have had fwbs so i don't think friendship necessarily precludes the possibility of sex #but when it is just a genuinely purely platonic friendship with no sex/romance #but people insist it is sexual/romantic it feels especially wrong and vile -- and it starts negatively affecting the friendship itself #like honestly that's what happened between me and him and by the time he shipped off to boot camp we were already barely talking #because he was made to feel weird about the closeness of our friendship by stupid girls spreading rumors #so yeah i guess i'm bitter about it

Recent things.. mostly just writing screenshots lol

#There's a water problem in the apartment so thats been taking most of my attention lol.. the way maintenance happens here is just #this big long vague wait with no clear communication. You just send in a request to the apartment building and then you might hear from the #any weekday from 8am - 4pm any time after that. Sometimes it's quick but sometimes its like days before you hear anything. So then #you just have to be operating under the assumption that at any time during working hours you might get a call or a knock at the door #Like if you were expecting company at any time for a week straight ghjhj.. ANYWAY.. I've been working on making a little discord #server thing for the game maybe for playtesters to communicate in initially i guess but then also after it's out or... something like that.#no idea how all of that works. but you hear about people doing it. or something... Still not entirely sold on the idea since I'm not really #a big user of discord format speaking (like little chats and stuff) but.. again idk.. seems like.. common.. for things...(< socially odd #hermit fumbling through trying to imitate what '''normal''' people do/enjoy/desire lol..). Since I think my biggest issue is I am very bad #at socializing and thus marketing since a lot of that is social. The type to just google ''what do people do about games once they've #made them'' and just go after whatever the top 10 things apparently are hjbjhbjh... But like I said. still unsure it will be utilized. it #all feels very awkward to me. then again most things do. But that's what the ''overall progress'' screenshot is from. the little channel #where I've been posting updates to myself lol. Also ''coding'' in that being used very lightly consdering it's ren'py and I'm only using #the very bare bones most basic functionality of it lol. Extremely intense highly daunting master level coding such as ''if x then y''. gbjh #slacked on writing a lot due to the evil maintenance and such things... and just general... appointments... events... aughhhhhh #I think it's Goose Time here or something because nearly every day I hear big V shaped rows of geese flying by like multiple #times a day and they're so pretty and neat to watch. They've really inspired me somehow. Today it was rainy and gray skied and high winds #and cold (some of my favorite most beautiful weather) and I went out to check the mail and like 6 or 7 rows of geese fluttered #by in the air. I felt like that meme image of that guy that looks kind of weird (william dafoe??) and its like black and white and #he's looking up at something almost teary eyed wide eyed in awe.. The goose... those are my goose.. the universe sent those gooses just #for me and the high speed winds blowing my coat open and chilling my face... a tender platonic kiss from the world is often delivered #by way of chilly weather and bird formations.. peace and love on planet earth truly..#OH and of course.. boy with boy!!!! shout out to those little mcdonalds toy animal plushies from like 2006 or something. I found the #gray cat one and was like.. hrmm.. I have one of those as well (a real life gray cat). surely they're friends now.

and if I said that Hum Hallelujah is the most p2 "love song" to me and didn't elaborate on that? what then?

#no it's because it's such an inherently vulnerable song to even write #let alone put on a record #maybe the first verse is pete and the second is patrick. I love you in the same way there's a chapel in a hospital.#the first ''I could write it better than you ever felt it'' is pete but the second repetition is patrick #because he's always scored pete's life #idk man. just. feeling really emotional about the sheer amounts of love inherent in 1) pete even sharing those lyrics #2) patrick scoring them. setting them to music. and 3) patrick SINGING THOSE WORDS #like. there is so much love present in that song just by nature of what it is and it freaking breaks me #she speaks!#fob #two halves of a whole member of fall out boy #I suppose here is when I clarify that I mean this platonically of course. like obviously. I'm very clear about that on this blog #but yeah. anyway #fall out boy #m

transfem furries hornyposting online about the relatively niche/"out there" things they're into have inadvertently helped me accept myself more than the body positivity movement of the 2010s ever did

#this will not be rebloggable because i don't want people to get transmisogynistic in the notes #it's just something i've been thinking about lately #i hope i'm not like out of line for saying this please let me know if i say anything disrespectful #i just have a lot of love in my heart for transfems; especially those who log on to this website to be gay on my dash and do their thing #trans wlw being proud of their identities helped me come to terms with my own in a way. idk how to properly explain it but #idk. our experiences are very different - you have to fight to be seen as a woman and i have to fight not to #(though that is part of my identity in most cases people would use it to negate the rest)#(and of course none of us should Have to fight that but. i hope it's clear what i mean lol)#and idk like. womanhood is not achieved painlessly for you and yet so many of you embrace it so beautifully and in so many ways #it makes me want to accept that part of myself i thought i had to kill for so long #i am not entirely a woman but i love being a woman and loving other women-#platonically romantically sexually it doesn't matter #i'm so grateful i get to share a community with you all and read/hear/watch your thoughts and experiences and such #which goes beyond sex stuff but sex stuff is a particular personal struggle of mine and it's something i've been trying to cultivate a more #healthy relationship to lately. and i also know that unfortunately transfems get treated even worse than everyone else when it comes to #kinks or whatever. i don't mean to imply that everyone has to be open about that stuff. i just mean that i'm grateful for those who bravely #and proudly are. anyway i'm losing my train of thought bc i'm packing for a trip and i'm a little scattered atm but the point is #transfem wlw i love you dearly thank you for existing #[oh also this post isn't meant to bash body positivity stuff and i know it's not all the same. it just often felt too sanitized and forced #for me to relate to. ok bye]#finielspeaks
