hazbin blogroll: @monxcular [main blog, niffty], @deerdealed [you are here]
main blog: @nerditudes [also has full list of other blogs!]
this blog will contain adult themes, language, and violence.
triggers will be tagged: [trigger] tw. common ones will be listed such as blood, viscera, cannibalism, or gore. if you require something tagged, please ask.
MENTIONS OF ABUSE or the implication thereof will be referenced but never roleplayed.
VIOLENCE WILL APPEAR rather frequently. alastor takes amusement out of playing with wayward souls. he also canonically eats other humans. i'm not incredibly confident with combat threads, so plotting would be required for something like that.
if you fuck around, you will find out.
and then be blocked because i don't look after children without compensation.
i have no affiliation with the fandom or series. if you don't like this show you don't have to follow this blog.
PERSONAL BLOGS please don't reblog my threads or headcanons. answered asks are welcome to be reblogged, as is anything tagged: ;; rebloggable.
BLOCK AND MOVE ON if you don't care for my takes, writing, or stances on social issues out of character. trans rights. free pa|istine, fuck fascism. blm. 1312.
Mad respect for actually writing Al as aro/ace! I feel like nearly every romantic storyline would hold him back from unleashing his full potential, YKWIM? No disrespect to the fandom. I just don't see him settling for anyone, not even demons of higher status.
I'm an ace gray-aro myself so I just kinda write what I know. Asexuality and aromanticism are vast spectrums comprising of various sub-identities that can fluctuate or change as the individual learns, grows, and learns to live.
Your romantic and sexual orientations, gender identity and expression, they're not always static things. Different experiences can open you up to new ideas, and it's important to be receptive to 'em. Al doesn't know he's aro/ace, he just think he's not "met the right gal". The way everyone talks about love sounds magnificent, but also distracting. He's quite thankful he's never felt that way [yet].
Keep in mind Alastor is from an entirely different time. Where a man was expected to find a woman and settle down. So he's got a lot of internal aphobia he has to eventually deal with. It's nuanced, but once someone gives him the terms to define feelings, I think he'll accept it and move on, as he's done with everything else in his afterlife.
I've got no beef with folk who write Al along the ace/aro spectrums, romance favorable, sex favorable-- whatever. He's your version of the muse. And if folks erase his asexual identity? Whatever. I just block and move on, that's their choice and I don't educate folk for free. There's definitely still aphobia in the fandom, as it happens in any fandom with a canonically ace character.
I do wanna clarify Al has only been confirmed to be on the asexual spectrum-- [which is as VAST as it needs to be. labels aren't boxes you need to fit in, but rather a name tag so you know where to sit at the family reunion] and is not canonically [at least as of this post] confirmed to be aromantic. I just thought it would be a fun take.
I still love shipping-- it's just that with Al it's different. Platonic ships, rivalries, enemies, etc. Focusing more on the characters and less on writing stuff I've already written LOADS of before. Besides-- I got @monxcular to throw at whomever. Niff is the bicycle out of my Hellaverse muses.
I am still, absolutely okay with folks who have muses that have feelings for Alastor. Just know he may not return them, or if he does-- it will purely be platonic.
He took another long slow sip at Lucifer's words, hardly minding them and quite frankly-- finding him amusing. The quick-witted radio host had already manifested a retort, which would undoubtedly sting. Now that he knew Lucifer couldn't harm Sinners-- the man was free game. He could neg and neg and neg the fallen angel and there wasn't anything he could do about it-- save leave the room.
Which was Alastor's intent to begin with.
"I'm a single father-- not that you'd know anything about that." Another sip.
no no i actually think it’s super fun that you took that aro/ace character and bent them over backwards to make them gay!!!! we all know being gay is more #progressive than being aro/ace so i’m so glad you freed them from having a storyline unconnected from romance and shipping!!! you go diva!!!
MUTUALS! Like this post for a starter of varying length! This will also serve as the default/permanent starter call post for the blog. So know that liking this post means you could get more starters in the future as well.
"Now this is going to be entertaining." He's watching Niffty and Husk from afar-- already delighted she asked him for his lighter. When his tail had caught fire-- oh how he'd laughed.
@deerdealed sent; Somehow he's gotten his hands on a remote and he's screwing with Vox's color settings for shits and giggles. He has no idea what he's doing, technology wasn't his thing. But Niffty's little suitor had found a way to win over the Radio Demon.
He didn't want to say he liked that weird tiny man-- but he certainly hated him less than others.
There was nothing else that Vox could do. Hues shifted along his screen. His eyesight changing along with it. Blue, then red, then yellow, and repeat. He just stood there. Taking it all. Watching Alastor have his fun.
"You know...." He began. "Yellow is definitely not your color."
"You're right-- i do look best in red." He's jabbing the remote, no idea what he was doing, no plan-- just pure, unbridled fun. If Vox wanted his redemption, Alastor intended to make it hard won. Tormenting him, free of charge was one of the best things about sticking around at this crappy hotel.
"Goodness me-- was I messing with your screen?" He feigned shock, smile still on his face. "Here I was trying to get the TV set up with Niffty's favorite program."
