Kinda Like Ollie With Kamer And Maya With Dahlia Is A Sense I Guess

feel free to ask more I can do this all day!

Thanks for asking btw, I greatly appreciate it. And for not thinking I'm weird

Of course!!!! I love hearing about other people’s characters!!!! And there’s not really anything to find weird tbh <3

Jackson and 🕷️?

Their biggest fear is Ollie getting hurt or killed. He cares for him. Mundane fears would be people sneaking up on him, it's mundane because the only reason he is afraid is being of Maya's powers and hates being the butt of a joke. Also, funnily enough, he's scared of ghosts, again because his friend loves to traumatize him. Scared of the dark, scared of bugs, which is funny since he is a football player.

Tess and 🔥?

Ooh, that's a tough one. Are you ready for angst? Because here we go with rapid fire trauma dumps. She tends to put herself in life threatening situations because she is convinced the reason her girlfriends keep dying when they're not supposed to is because they are constantly around her, and since she got her powers through a core (that they were using to fuel time travel or something unoriginal idk) from a hidden experimental lab under the apartment complex she lived in killing everyone (the only reason she survived is because she was wearing an analog watch in the one room in the first floor of the apartment building that had a certain metal support beams; core's energy was attracted by beams she was next to, repelled by the watch, and straight into her), she feels she doomed everyone. She lives with constant survivors guilt and is looking for death constantly but not willing to do it herself because she doesn't want to make them feel they did anything wrong or failed her. Also, Tess is constantly on guard and is almost always watching the timeline through one eye, hiding it with a contact. It's gotten so bad Vy and Morgan literally went to Illustrator, had them make a power canceling bracelet that locks with a key, and have Vy teleport it onto Tess's wrist every time they hang out/when Tess needs sleep. She has gotten more calm and chill though, and is getting better. Yay for girlfriends and therapy

Ollie with 😭?

Honestly, it's both very easy and extremely difficult to make Ollie cry. On one hand, being linked with Kamer, especially when they're combined, helps Ollie not feel as many negative or "weak" emotions (I'm not saying crying is a weak emotion, it's just not what you would think of when you envision big scary demon thing). On the other, Ollie deals with the most toxic, homophobic, transphobic parents you could even imagine. They refuse to accept him as trans and outright neglect and hurt him. They also force him to go to church and therapy for his "sickness". If you strike a nerve, Ollie will flat out crumple, going into a full mental breakdown. He also is terrified that he will end up getting his friends hurt, so any injury to Maya, Rose, or Jackson will cause him to cry and go into a spiral of sell depreciation and depression. So yeah, justice for trauma boy.

THIS. This needs to change! Aro characters can be so entertaining and interesting, especially since I have some Aro friends of my own. As an artist and content creator, I will try my best to make the Aro community proud, and together we as a whole community should strive to give this part of the community some more representation. 

aro culture is being treated as too boring, even more than asexuals at this point, to appear in media. even if we have the capacity to feel a wide range of emotion, create meaningful connections, and be interesting and well-rounded characters in general, we're not written because what makes a character relevant is apparently that they can experience romantic love.

even if aromantics have so much interesting commentary on society. even if we. have so much relevant and insightful human experience that doesn't have to be conflated with romanticism all the time. even if there's space for some extraordinary character arcs. even if these characters could ALSO establish dynamics that are emotionally raw without being confined to the grounds of it having to be 'love.'

and how the fans influence people to never try and create these characters since they are so ignored in fandom. everyone's so on board, so excited with queer headcanons when they're hinted at. that is, unless they are presented with the idea of aromanticism because it makes for a boring character.

arophobia is so, so constant in spaces that discuss fiction.

He's never gonna let him live it down 🤭

This is my D&D character Nyx (one on the left) with @bitter-goodbyes D&D character Florian! A little bit about Nyx is that she is a moon elf and the daughter of the nobles of Phlan. She is adopted, and she hates her adoptive parents as they are tyrants and abusive to her kind. The only reason they adopted her was to boost their PR with the elves in the country, and now they are absolute tyrants and oppressors. She is a sorceress and has a partner named Athen (they/them). She rebelled against her family and fought the army they sent to burn part of the village because they "corrupted" their daughter after they found out she and Athen were dating. Now she is an assassin working for the Collective, hates humans, and is very sassy and kind of a b word before you get to know her. If you want to know more about Florian ask @bitter-goodbyes, his backstory is very interesting and they deserve more love. BTW, no base this time and bonus points if you can tell me why my character's name is Nyx!

Me: I just want funny lore

*Sees answer to ask*

That’s deeper than I wanted to go

Florian and 👻

It’s complicated for him.

He wants nothing more to believe in ghosts. Believe in the idea that his sister still watches over him and isn’t completely gone.

But.

If they are real, she has watched everything he’s done. Watched him turn into a monster.

Florian wants them to be real, but if they are, she’s seen everything.
