#aro rep

[lemonycranberries]

loved the little part where Isaac says that a relationship seems nice in theory but it isn't what he actually wants and James goes "so you're aromantic?" and Isaac absolutely lights up with a smile and he says "you know what that is?"

the funny part is that when James said that my face also lit up with a smile and my thoughts were "he knows what it is!!" even while watching fictional characters. the fact that our identity is so unknown and invisible makes this such a universal aro experience.

💚AROMANTIC SPECTRUM AWARENESS WEEK🖤

QOTD: Have you ever read a book with aromantic representation? If not, I highly recommend giving one a go!

If anyone has any recs where a character realises they’re aromantic a bit later in life, I’d love that. I’ve known I was ace since I was 18 and I didn’t realise I was aro until my late 20s.

Someone to Daydream About by Sydney Langford

Everyone's heard of Felix Song, lead singer of America's most popular boyband. Unfortunately, so has Natalie Nielsen, although she thinks he's just an annoying rich kid from her hometown. But when his little sister's hearing loss worsens, Felix offers Natalie a job that could save her family's Deaf Center: teach him ASL while on tour.

Does anyone know any characters who are canonically aroallo?

The word "aroallo" (or even just "aromantic") doesn't have to be used in the media, but it has to be canonical in some way*, not just a headcanon based on vibes.

*ex: the author confirms it on social media, the story is clearly written with it in mind even if the word aroallo isn't used, or the character uses other language to describe being aroallo
