it's international asexual day so here's a post about my Aspec headcanons for TOH character's including Lilith, Steve, Willow, and Hunter!! sorry for rambling. (repost from my post in the owl house community)
(yes I know that Willow and Hunter are minors. i'm a minor and I know i'm ace so I don't want to hear a peep out of you. hush. listen to ace joy.)
[for this specific headcanon i am a Huntlow shipper. these are my canon-headcanons. if you wanna ask me about my OC/canon ace Hunter headcanon just drop a comment about it.]
(trigger warning for bright colors, mentions of CSA, Aphobia, a passing mention of hypersexuality, Manipulation, and Abuse!! I also make a joke about being shot for one of the headcanons so there's that.)
ok so!
Lilith is Aroace!! this one is canon Ik ik but I just wanted to add my two cents. I think she's Quio-Aroace, and her asexuality is influenced by neurodivergency!!
Steve is requi-Aroace (requisexual wiki page here-https://lgbtqia.wiki/wiki/Requiessexual) because of the emperors coven and all that. he and Lilith are Queerplatonic partners!!
Willow is specifically recipsexual!! she wasn't fully sure if she was on the ace spectrum for a long time, but eventually she accepted it around a year or so after WAD. she wasn't attracted to Hunter until the scene in for the future (you know the one) and than it was like a truck ran into her <33
ookk. so my Ace (And maybe aro?) Hunter headcanon uh this one is projection[?] and very self indulgent headcanon. very very convoluted. i'm a 'too many headcanons' headcanoner for Hunter. not sorry/silly
so he's Accipioromantic first of all. he will do romantic things for willow sometimes but he doesn't fully understand the concept of "I have to be doing romantic stuff too for a balanced relationship". I know it doesn't make sense for his canon personality. shush. he's also nebularomantic due to neurodivergency. which neurodivergencies?? only titan knows.
ok for the Aspec headcanon. he's Caedosexual because of Belos- *I am shot dead by the fandom on sight.* i know I know. hush. I hear your uncomfortable outrage. but this is the hill I will die on. belos did infact manipulate and abuse Hunter in ways that could be considered CSA and nobody can ever change my mind about this. that possession scene was in fact an allegory. (my personal take about this is very much similar to catboymoment's portrayal of it if you want an example.)
he also just doesn't have a frame of reference for sexual attraction so he could also be considered Quio-sexual like Lilith.
i also think belos was a-phobic. he may *tolerate* gay/trans people but he would make offhanded comments about how wild magic can 'mess with people's urges'. (this also ties into my headcanon of Eda being hypersexual to help disassociate from her curse ex- "can't think about my disability if i'm too busy being hot") to Hunter so in post-belos time Hunter is working on reminding himself that he is NOT broken and belos was just a horrible person.
ok that's all. happy ace day. reminder to eat lots of garlic bread If you can and drink water. love loses!!
makes me sad when people run their own fics (or anybody else’s fics) through an ai checker.
1. an ai checker itself is, I believe, ai.
2. ai checker is known to be unreliable. it’s known to have incorrectly flagged human-made works as ai, and ai-generated works as human-made.
3. ai itself is trained on real human’s works, in order to mimic real human’s works and how real humans write. and whether or not you like it, ai as a writing tool is getting better and more developed. because it has more and more works to train on. so by running a fic through its machine, you are giving it more work to train on.
running a fic through an ai checker will not actually prove anything. it will either make you question yourself as a writer, or it will open a door for other writers to get harassed and wrongly accused of using ai.
if you suspect somebody’s fic is ai and if that bothers you, click away from the fic. harassing the writer or making a call out post will only encourage witch hunt behavior, and witch hunt behavior means innocent writers can and will get wrongly accused too. again, you cannot know for sure if a fic is ai unless the author themself says so. but even then, the best thing to do if it bothers you is click away, block the writer, scroll past the work. harassment, accusations and call out posts do more harm than good to the writing community.
“but why shouldn’t we harass writers if they admit to using ai”
1. under no circumstances will I condone harassment. I believe there are better, more productive ways to solve a problem.
2. chances are that harassing writers who openly use ai won’t make them stop using ai. it will just make them hide the fact they use ai — therefore their works are no longer tagged as ai, therefore you can’t know for sure that it’s ai, therefore there’s a chance of you, or anybody who is otherwise against ai, reading and giving it kudos without knowing that it’s ai.
3. the most efficient way you can avoid ai-generated works is if “writers” tag these works as ai. they will almost certainly stop tagging their works as such if you harass them.

April Fool’s Day is in a few days, and I just wanted to make this clear. This blog is safe, and I can promise you no screamers, nothing emotionally abusive, no fake posts, and nothing to intentionally trigger dissociation. You are safe here.

“How to do better at Getting New Pronouns Right. No more “oh I’m trying but its just really hard”
1. When you slip up, correct yourself briefly and move on “When I first met Lilly she was - I mean Aidan, he was literally doing a handstand on a skateboard”
2. When someone corrects you, say “thank you” and just move on swiftly “I hadn’t even finished yet and he already-” “they” “right thanks! they had already gotten 8 ready !?!”
3. Get in the habit of interrupting people with a quick correction yes every time “What is she doing? That looks -” “He.” “Oh yeah. Whatever he’s doing looks weird” It sets a good precendent, lifts some of the burden off trans people, and makes it easier to catch yourself
4. For everytime you get it wrong, do it right 3 times like saying 3 compliments (it doesn’t have to be aloud) “I should do pick up Jackson- Oh shoot! Jax Their name is Jax; They have been exceptionally patient with me today; and they are wearing lovely earrings”
5. Consider meeting with someone to practice. Go for coffee with a mutual friend and correct each you get it. “So her pronouns are they/them- wait their pronouns” “We really need to practice, so we can get this right for them” “Totally!”
6. Don’t make anyone feel like a burden for having pronouns you’re struggling with do not say “oh it’s just really hard” “Thank you for sharing your authentic self with me, l’m learning and I really apperciate it”
7. Don’t make them alleviate your guilt If you get it wrong do not apologise profusely, because that puts the other person in the position of having to say it’s ok, and putting their own feelings aside to make you feel better / stop apologising Express your love and learn.]
People have real issues understanding why the absence of romance and sexual desire is such a big deal. "No one bothers you over your sexual orientation! You're basically a straight person!" No wrong. The older you get the more your life is considered a failure for failing to find a life partner and get your 2.5 kids in.
Like people make fun of middle aged women for not getting married or being divorced or "always the bridesmaid never the bride" and all like "oh she's desperate! No one wants her! Old maid!' but they become straight up hostile and upset when you tell them you never want to date.
Being unpartnered after your mid twenties is just like "oh what's wrong with you" and "don't worry you'll find your guy" "aren't you afraid of being alone" "who will take care of you" "you're running out of time to have kids" and no matter what you are or aren't people straight up don't understand that you don't want them.
