show: *repeatedly parallels a character's relationship to someone they refer to as "my best friend" to the relationship between the main romantic pairing, has the character get upset when their devotion to their friend isn't taken as seriously as the romantic couple's devotion*

the show's intended takeaway, probably: "oh these characters are ~~more than friends~~ actually"

my takeaway: oh hell yeah, aromantic rights

#eliot posts #anyway i'm currently rewatching the carmilla webseries #and lafontaine is sooo aromantic to me #back when i was a teenager and first watching the series i did not see it and went w the romantic interpretation #but now i am way more aggressively aro than i was back then #laf was my fav character in the series both then and now #my beloved funky lil nonbinary mad scientist <3 #i didn't even know i was nonbinary the first time i watched so i didn't fully connect to them on that level yet #they're just extremely Delightful on their own #they attempted to do an exorcism using nanobots!!! icon behaviour!!!
