HAPPY PRIDE MONTH FROM MY FAVORITE BAD BITCH AND ALL HIS MEN.

So...remember how Jesus had a boyfriend before Aaron in the comics...his name was Alex who shipped Aaron and Jesus together like a supportive ex. Alex literally ensures Aaron stay in bed to get better from getting sliced near the stomach to ensure Aaron would still live.

So anyway, they’ve cast Alex for the show...and I’m suspecting we’re gonna see a new boyfriend for Aaron....kinda a cheap move as we have honeslty only seen Alex once....but at least our boi Aaron can hopefully finally get some love. I have hope.

Headcanon TWD

Jesus had a fling with King Zeke before Carol, but broke it off because he didn't want to be tied down.

Also Daniel.

Also Eduardo.

Alex needed to chill, and wanted casual to become a relationship.

With full disclosure that I love fanon Alex in all his various forms verging from anywhere to poor Alex who Paul broke into a million pieces to Fucking Alex from The Unquiet Grave (my personal favorite negative portrayal fanon Alex), it is actually HILARIOUS to me how this minor character who appears maybe 4 times total just took on a complete life of his own, and almost no one has actually got the dynamic right.

Paul and Alex were never in an actual relationship, for one. It's pretty clear their dynamic in the comics is that of fuckbuddies/friends with benefits. They probably were attracted enough to each other, and in an apocalyptic wasteland, the going has to be ROUGH for gay folks. Everyone's options are limited, and gay men/lesbians infinitely more so. People have physical needs.

They're never shown to actively dislike other. They seem to get along well enough and actually be friends, and Alex is even shown calling him Paul at some point, which almost no one does. Alex can just be overbearing at times when Paul is clearly the kind of person who needs his alone time to just decompress (I can relate), and Alex is always "on" so to speak.

Alex definitely probably has more actual feelings than Paul has for him, but Paul is definitely very clear with his feelings regarding the matter and doesn't really appear to be leading him on. Their split is completely amicable, and they're shown to still be friends afterwards and Alex finds happiness with someone else. If anything I could see them potentially being even better friends with them both having fulfilling relationships. That weird moment where Alex gives Paul that one last smooch aside, which, well, no one is perfect.

Actual Biblically Accurate Alex has a planned cameo at some point in The Second Coming where I kinda give him his flowers as a minor character. Poor dude got turned into a walking gay plot device and I get it but we need more canon Alex in our life just being a beautiful obnoxious gay disaster.

Oh and Alex was the original Jaaron shipper, btw.

Low key want to write a Jesus x Alex comic universe one shot about them meeting and figuring out their little arrangement together? And have it be all cute and shit because despite all the various fanon Alexes (Alexi?) Over the years I bet their meet up story was real cute and wholesome and then E rated lmao. If I did though I know that shit would be entirely self serving 😭
