this isnt really about gamtav specifically, but this is a very a-spec blog so i wanna talk about it ::::)

i feel like there isn't enough discussion about troll society in relationship to asexuality and aromanticism!!! ive never personally stumbled across ANY kind of art/analysis about it in the homestuck fandom, and that makes me so sad because theres so much potential.

troll society isn't just amatonormative bro, you can literally get slaughtered for not freaking it twice per sweep. CRAZY work. if you're sex repulsed, you really dont have a lot of options. and we can see this carries through even culturally!!! in the quadrant info dump section, the narrator explains how in troll culture, every troll is believed to have a predestined soulmate for each of their quadrants, just like in human culture. this shit is baked in.

aro/ace trolls are probably the closest thing to the human conception of being gay, from an oppression stand point. The aphobia isn't even subtle dude theyre just gutting people out here. growing up ace or aro as a HUMAN fucking sucks, dude how do you think a troll would feel. alienated (hehe), probably! if i were to guess! and i haven't even touched on platonic attraction, or other forms of attraction like sensual or alterous. not fun times to be had.

am i saying this was the authorial intent? fuck no, lmfao. i seriously doubt it ever crossed hussie's mind, considering how every single kid, and all of the trolls, including the alpha trolls!!! have a romantic interest. And i'm counting that exclusively by concupiscent terms. not even davesprite is safe we are so cooked.

i just really think this would be an interesting concept to explore, especially with how rigid the quadrant system is, and how anything queer-platonic or any boundary breaking friendships are likely to just be shoveled into either of the red quadrants. all this queer angst about not loving correctly and its just being left here on the floor. sitting there. on the FAG website, of all websites??!?!? where are you guys. im BEGGING fandom space to get queerer and more aromantic about things it makes your shipping so much cooler.

this is why im glad i made my trollsona able to become a drinker when she dies(love being a true virgo…) she just turns after a drone slaughters her ass(shes aroace like me)

This might be very acespec of me to say, but there is no fucking way sex is better than pasta.

Ravioli? Spaghetti? Fettuccini? Tortellini?

With a four-cheese sauce? Sautéd mushrooms? Garlic and parmesan cheese? Tomato and basil? Warm fucking buttery pasta in a bowl, and a glass of something cold to drink??

You want me to believe that SEX is better than PASTA?? I don't think so.

REALLLL FETTUCINE ALFREDO MY BELOVED!!!
