New juvelic terms: Hadelean & Persephic
Hadeleane: A binary male or non-cis person of any gender/alignment who is attracted to people of female gender/alignment, neutral gender/alignment, and/or lack of gender/alignment. This attraction DOESN'T have to be EXCLUSIVE.
-------------------------------------------------------
Persephic: A binary female or non-cis person of any gender/alignment who is attracted to people of male gender/alignment, neutral gender/alignment, and/or lack of gender/alignment. This attraction DOESN'T have to be EXCLUSIVE.

The history of the creation
My friend (who coined the terms with me) and I feel that when we read about attraction, people rarely take into account people who have alignment beyond the feminine, masculine, neutral, or non-existent. Among people of fluid alignment, flow, xenic, dual, etc, it is difficult to find a term that fits our identity, when it is often so connected to the binary male and female context. Hadelean and Persephic was created with the intention of including these people.
For example, being a person who has only binary masculine alignment and dual (male + fem) alignment, I've never been comfortable with the sapphic or achillean term, they don't seem made to me.
Making it clear that the terms aren't wrong, we just don't identify with them, so we decided to create a term that would include us.
Note: When we talk about gender and fem/neutral/non-existent alignment, we are talking about everything that is in this context (thats it enby, xenic, etc). Same for masc/neutral/non-existent.
Q: This is something like straight enby?
A: First, the term is for all non-cis so it isn't only for enbies. Second, we said the attraction don't need to be exclusive to this genders/alignments.
Q: I have to have male/female alignment to be hadelean/persephic?
A: No, babe! We said everyone non-cis with any gender and/or alignment can use them.
Q: I'm gay and I liked persephic, can I use?
A: Gay is a person who don't have any female alignment and is not attracted to female alignments and persephic is for anyone who have any gender/alignment. So with you're non cis and gay, you can use.
Q: I can use them and use other juvelic term?
