Pride Month Aspec Headcanons Day 2

Edward Nygma - Gotham (2014-2019) - Arospec Demisexual

Naturally, since yesterday was Oz, today is Ed

@arabriddler has a good post about Ed being demi, which I will reblog after this. It about covers it, though I will add that he also knew Lee for years before they got together, too. Isabella is a whole different thing and lots of projection and yada yada and I don't feel like getting into it here. Mainly, the connection between Isabella and Kristen says a lot and further proves how he's demi to me

Arospec: throughout canon, it becomes clear that Ed has a complicated relationship with all forms of love, what it means to love and be loved, etc. Add in more in love with the idea of Kristen than her actual self, explicitly telling Oswald he doesn't love him (though that is also contributed to by other things), not being able to tell Lee he loves her, and we've got quite a set up for arospec Ed

Plus, if you hc Ed as bi as well, (which,,, why wouldn't you?) repression caused by comphet would also repress any feelings he also has revolving around being on the a-spectrum, and thus contributing to him being the way he acts and tries to present himself vs who he actually is.

Also, he's a walking aro flag color scheme from season 3 onwards, so. If Oswald can be ace and a walking ace flag, he can be arospec and a walking aro flag

Yelena Belova - Marvel - Aroace

I've heard she's aroace in the comics? Queen. Hopefully it'll actually translate over into the MCU, but given the MCU's treatment of a lot of their characters over the years, I just hope they don't make too much of a mess with whatever they do

A favorite moment: when Natasha asks her what she wants to do with her future (settling down, etc) and she says she wants a dog

Also I love the concept of there being an aroace Widow. She also reminds me a lot of my own little sister, who is ace. Iconic, really

Anne Shirley - Green Gables series and adaptations - Demiromantic

I love Anne a lot and related to her a lot growing up. I hc her as demiromantic partially because it takes her so long to recognize that her feelings for Gilbert have turned romantic. There are also a few other things:

She idealizes what she thinks she wants in a romantic partner based on the books she grew up reading

When she finally does have this, she has to come to the realization that she's not actually attracted to men like that and that her romantic feelings are inclined in a different way than she had expected

When all her friends are starting to fall in love with people around them (and not just crushing or romanticizing), she is still figuring out her feelings and how they differ from those around her

Also, Project Green Gables made their version of Anne demiromantic, which is amazing, so go check that out if you're an Anne fan and haven't yet

Commander Wolffe - The Clone Wars (2008) - Aroace

I once told a friend a stripped of Star Wars, watered down version of an au I had with Wolffe and was explaining about him losing his eye. Her reaction was "and then he gets a girlfriend and becomes happy and everything is alright!"

Let me tell you. My eyes about bugged out of my head. I was like, "Uhhh no. Because happiness does not have to equate to having a significant other. He's doing just fine recovering with the help of his dad and his brothers, thank you very much"

Anyway, this man is very aroace to me. Rolls eyes hard whenever the Wolfpack share their chaotic allo stories with him
