Alright since you specifically asked for Kingceit, an old concept I never wrote
Ace Roman and aro Remus led to King being Ace-flux and aro-flux. Valentine's Day happens when he's in an aro mood, but it's valentines, he'll pretend not to, they had so many plans! (I was in a relationship before I learned I was just aro, and in hindsight, I was projecting)
Janus of course sees through it immediately and is like "no, honey, if you don't want to today you don't have to. I just want to hang out with you, however you're comfortable."
Ooh, I love that! I usually do the other way around (aro Roman, ace Remus) but I can absolutely see how that would lead to King being flux (or grey, or demi. there are so many fun labels.)
and projecting is definitely a good way to deal with things
gonna go ahead and use Romulus for King btw
Valentine's Day is usually one of his favoured holidays; romance lends itself well to creativity, and there's nothing he likes more than coming up with new ways to fluster his beloved. Alas, he isn't feeling anywhere near positive about the holiday at the moment, when all the romantic plans he had lined up are making him feel sick.
The romance aversion does not always accompany his aromantic moods, but the concept of the holiday makes it all the stronger.
Romulus feels awful — not for being aversed, but that it had to happen today. He doesn't want to let Janus down by not giving it his all, especially not when it's so hard to get time together! Oh, he has no hard feelings over his existence being reliant on others, but it is frustrating to plan around them and then have his own feelings laugh in his face.
But he's pure Creativity, and a great actor on top of that, so he should still be able to give Janus a day to remember. Anything can be hidden behind a smile.
He should perhaps have remembered what his beloved represented, Romulus thinks as he had barely started reciting the poem that he had written especially for today before Janus gently took his hands, making his words falter until silence reigned.
"Darling, don't push yourself on my account. We can honour the day that Saint Valentine was martyred in other ways, or spend the day making fun of romance movies. Whatever you wish, as long as you're comfortable." And here Janus paused, both for breath and to give him a reassuring smile. "I enjoy being in your company, romance or not."
"Unless you have anyone to send a vinegar valentine to, I'd prefer forgetting it's a holiday at all today. Although honouring by beheading someone might be tempting."
Janus' laugh was still lovely, with no romantic feelings accompanying the appreciation of the once rare sound.
"Oh, I'm not certain a beheading could be arranged."
Romulus couldn't help but chuckle, relieved that Janus had taken his aversion so well. Maybe they could get up to some chaos in lieu of anything romantic. It would for sure be a memorable day either way, just because they got to spend it together.
