Okay. I know almost everybody in this fandom hates Errink now (at least, from my experiences 😭).
BUT WHAT IF INK AND ERROR WERE BOTH ASEXUALS AND STILL DATED?? Like, imagine Error trying to hint at his feelings by asking Ink about how to get over his fear of touch so he could hold hands with someone and Ink just straight up tells him he doesn’t need to get over his fear in order to be in a relationship. And then Ink just explains the concept of asexuality to Error. It takes a few hours and Error is constantly questioning both the concept and himself, but Ink is patient and since he has a crappy memory, doesn’t hesitate to repeat himself over and over. Error could, of course, still work to get over his fear, but now there’s much less pressure to do so. He feels like he can take it at his own pace without worrying about his partner’s needs. He feels more respected as a person in general the more he and Ink talk about it.
Also I DESPERATELY want to see Ink painting asexual flags onto Error’s cheeks during pride month to celebrate. Like. Just imagine how cute that would be.
