cishetsbeingcishet: asexualcharacteroftheday: Today’s asexual character of the day is Aristotle Mendoza from Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe! Many thanks to otakusapien for the submission! :) yall really just cant fucking help yourselves can you Ah, what a lovely morning! You know, I really feel like playing some Kingdom Hearts today. Time to boot up my tablet and-Something isn’t quite right here…Yeah, something’s definitely not right.-_-(So you know, Anon, telling a severely-depressed and chronically low-key suicidal young woman to perish is playing a very dangerous game.)I see a follower-submitted post from a blog I haven’t updated for over two years suddenly blew up overnight and resulted in a gigantic backlash against myself, my blog, the submitter, and asexual people in general (… I’m a bit confused as to why a blog called cishetsbeingcishets is commenting on ace matters but that’s just me).Quite frankly, I haven’t read the book myself, am not familiar with the characters, and of course I had not seen a specific tweet by one of millions of authors in the world. I’m not omniscient. Speaking of the tweets, here they are.Oh hey, these tweets were posted on the twenty-first of February, 2016. I wonder when the post on this blog was made?The eighth of November, 2015? Yeah. This headcanon was entirely valid when the post was made, the submission being posted made some people happy (check the early notes, back before the Tweets existed), and there was no gay-erasure, seeing as how according to you guys the author’s confirmation of Aristotle being canonically-gay was made AFTER this post was published. I’m not going to retrospectively delete the post because it’s historically valid, even though it disagrees with something the author later declared to be canon. I reject the accusations of homophobia on these grounds. If a character is yet to be explicitly confirmed by the author as having a particular orientation, all headcanons are as valid as any other.Get out of here, guys. Stop making yourselves look bad. -- source link
