Seriously People Need To Remember That It Is Not A Crime To Not Be Attracted To Another Person Who Has Feelings For You - Tumblr Posts
Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU.
This is so refreshing to see because god damn the incel energy coming from Vox is gross and it's upsetting how people are so quick to overlook that. Look, Alastor is an evil cannibal serial killer overlord, there are plenty of reasons he is a villain. Not reciprocating someone's feelings is NOT one of those reasons.
And to the people saying he's a villain for not rejecting Vox in a nice way, like duh, of course he's going to be mean about the rejection, HE'S AN EVIL CANNIBAL SERIAL KILLER OVERLORD, why would he even bother being nice about it? Why is everyone acting so surprised?
And to be honest, watching a character reject someone in a cruel way is weirdly cathartic and refreshing. As an aroace myself, I have had to reject people before and no matter how gentle or nice I am about it, the guy always makes me out to be this wicked heartless harpy to everyone we know. And I have friends who have gone through the same thing. And I've heard stories about people on social media going through the same thing. Society as a whole is far to nice to the creepy entitled incels of the world and it's honestly exhausting and kinda acephobic.
So on behalf of all of the people who have had to be put through this shit, I say we embrace Alastor's cruel rejection of Vox. It honestly doesn't matter how the rejection happens, Vox will be butthurt about it anyway so Alastor might as well just embrace the "yeah I stepped all over that guy's heart when I rejected him so what" angle. It may even give him some more overlord cred because most of the other overlords really seem to dislike the vees.
GO EVIL ACE KING, DO WHAT WE IRL ACES CAN'T DO! RIP THAT GUY A NEW ONE, YOU OWE HIM NOTHING!
i keep seeing people talk about 'one sided radiostatic' and while i think its fun as a crackship or for shitposts, the people who take it seriously always seem to make alastor a villain SPECIFICALLY for not liking vox, and then make vox seem like some tragic character for having unrequited feelings. which is. uhm. maybe...dont? maybe dont paint an aroace character as a villain specifically because they dont like someone who has feelings for them back? thats sorta...uhm...not good?
