Artblog: mysteryequationart. Any pronouns work. I post about whatever I'm currently watching, then abandon that mercilessly and move on to the next thing. There's no consistency here

It's been done before but:

Ongoing list of media I have actually consumed that have a main character who throughout the entire story does not show romantic attraction towards anyone and does not end up in a romantic relationship.

Some of these are heavily aroace coded, some are just romance free. But you can with basically 0 mental work interpret them as aroace.

Asterisk means that in some way the aro and/or ace identity is explicitly acknowledged as such, though not necessarily by that vocabulary. Ie. canon aro and/or ace

(past relationships might be mentioned, but their nature generally even enhances an aroace reading or at least does not hinder it)

hilarious how grace is wandering around that aircraft carrier thinking i'm just a guy. meanwhile his security clearance is technically on the same level as the actual eva stratt herself

[manyblinkinglights]

#phm#in the book he's like#'my office is technically a storage closet. they're gonna kick me out of here when we resupply. i'm about as important as toilet paper.'#man you live on a boat. how many other people on the boat have an office at all.#you're the guy who looks at the paperwork and signs shit that's not worth bothering stratt over#which you can choose to interpret as either not very important or VERY IMPORTANT INDEED.#you're the guy who says 'yeah i think this plan is scientifically feasible'#to which stratt says 'okay my pet scientist says it'll work‚ let's go ahead and pave the sahara.'

[moredifferentthanusual]

Some guy: "i have a crazy plan"

Stratt: "hmm what do you think dr grace?"

Grace: wow what a crazy plan that would take an absurd amount of power to accomplish and have far-reaching impacts "yeah it's feasible, i'd go with it"

Stratt: "alright, you heard him, do it"

Grace: waow she has so much power to just decide that. that's wild. glad i don't decisions. i wonder why she keeps bringing me to these

There is absolutely a platonic explanation for that

First time posting something and it's in a dead fandom lol, I just really love this piece

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

if you comment some demanding shit like this on fanfic writers’ works, you don’t deserve the privilege of getting to read fanfiction for free

[killergirlfuria]

Fun fact! Demanding updates is also likely to make authors delay them, either out of spite, or because you bring their mood too low to effectively write!

For me it causes both <3

"The Emptiness Machine"

Some notes:

1. There's a hidden reference to a sci-fi movie

2. I'm still not sure if I like the designs, so they'll probably change in the future

3. Yep, MB did bite a technician while it was getting retrieved from Ganaka Pit. The malware order was still active, and it was still free to move.

therapyspeak jigsaw: are you in the right headspace to play a game that could possibly hurt you?

[i-bite-out-of-love]

Ill be honest, Pin-Lee in the show threw me for a loop because Book Pin-Lee always seemed like such an aroace icon to me like she and Murderbot would be standing there at their friends' wedding nodding along like they understood why people wanted that. And keeping each other company discussing how to fuck over corporates again

Strange haunted photo where Winifred looks like she's a painting

I have placed her in a more fitting setting

For the first time in my tenure on tumblr, it's "THAT'S A PHOTOGRAPH?" and not "THAT'S AN OIL PAINTING?"

For all that we joke about the action itself, the phm Antarctica scene guts me every single time. Never has an apocalyptic scenario been made to feel so threatening and real by the sheer measures humanity takes to save itself. It's the dead of night, bitter cold air and two people with unfathomable power, someone is crying, it's not enough, the shockwave reaches us in ten minutes. I'll be in the cell next to you.
