Carter Kane - The Kane Chronicles - Asexual

I actually found out about asexuality from a Zia/Carter fic I read my freshman year of high school. The fic mentioned AVEN. I checked it out afterward based on how Carter felt in the fic and found out I was ace myself, so this headcanon is very near and dear to my heart

Part of this comes from how Carter describes Zia compared to how Sadie describes Walt and Anubis. While Sadie goes on and on about how hot they are, Carter only uses words along the lines of beautiful to describe Zia

Not understanding what people mean when they say someone is hot is something I very strongly relate to. It's more than just respecting people in your thoughts -- it's a complete lack of understanding on what others mean and it not even occuring to you since you never think of it until something brings it up. It's part of what defines my aceness.

To say this headcanon (and fic) changed my life would be an understatement. It has helped me better understand who I am and helped me know I am not alone at a time where I was beginning to wonder about why I was different than my friends. It brought me comfort before I even knew I would be needing comfort. There's no way I'm ever letting this one go 💜🤍🩶🖤

See that is the funniest part of Gwen being made canon ace to me. While she absolutely had those vibes in her earlier runs, not one of those writers intended them, they just happened to turn out that way, just because of how her character was.

She was just always meant to be ace hehe. Someone must've just finally picked up on them and then did it intentionally, which is super awesome to me

Troy Barnes - Community (2009) - Asexual

I'll admit, I adopted this one from some fanfics I came across as well. I like it since his arc is about him feeling more comfortable being himself and not feeling the need to display the stereotypical jock persona that was forced on him during high school anymore.

At the beginning of the show, he's seen wrestling with this a lot, including hooking up with girls a lot. What better explanation than comphet for that in the midst of it all?

This is one of my hcs that I'm more flexible on, but who doesn't love adding in a relatable headcanon to their favorite characters every once in a while?

Stereotypical Barbie - Barbie (2023) - Aroace

Firstly, Barbie is canonically ace, so jot that down. (Thank you, Margot Robbie!) And I know lots of people saw her as a lesbian. I respect a good lesbian ace Barbie hc

Personally, I like to see her as aroace. That end conversation with Ken just screamed it to me. I knew going in that some people saw aroace Barbie and throughout the entire movie, I was looking for it. Lo and behold, that scene delivered and gave me exactly what I was looking for. It made me very happy to watch

Her arc as a whole was very aroace to me. Being in society and knowing you're different than you expect yourself to be (aka comphet and internalized amatonormativity etc etc) and trying to figure yourself out. And in the end, accepting those difference and moving forward and being stronger and all the better for it.

Added bonus of the yellow dress she wears in the scene with Ken fitting in with the flag color scheme <3
