some ace harry headcanons
harry’s kind of oblivious
he notices when everyone else starts talking about girls, and boys
he laughs along, nods and smiles because he supposes pansy does have good legs? but what really makes good legs?
and yes, cedric has incredibly bright eyes and cho makes him smile but he doesn’t want them in the way his roommates keep insinuating
when people start kissing?? that’s when harry gets confused
why do they want to do that
it doesn’t exactly look pleasant
but he gives it a go, because maybe once he tries it something will click and he’ll like it
but he doesn’t
it’s not that cho is bad at kissing, it just doesn’t do anything for him and he definitely doesn’t feel the desire to do anything more
harry struggles for a while, not understanding why apparently everyone else gets these feelings and he doesn’t
but eventually, in a class, he hears the word “asexual” but doesn’t really understand what it means
so he goes to the library
there’s not exactly much in the way of information in the hogwarts library in the nineties
but the word asexual is there; does not experience sexual attraction
and that’s it
right there
harry doesn’t experience sexual attraction
he feels like he’s understood, for once, and he leaves the library a thousand times happier than when he walked in
