Gaim theory
Mar. 1st, 2014 11:06 amWith the thought I had during the watchalong commentary for episode 19, I've crystallized a theory about Mai, Sid, and Sagara that will probably fall apart once episode 20 airs...today, I think? So with that said, no spoilers.

RP, sexuality, and romance
Apr. 27th, 2013 08:06 pmSo apparently there is this thing called Asexually April, and I only just found out about it--a fanfic challenge throughout the month celebrating asexuality. And now it's almost May and I have zero in the way of ideas. Also, I think it's only on Tumblr spreading to AO3, so yeah.
Anyway, that ended up getting me thinking about the characters I play and how I interpret their sexual and romantic preferences. Now, it's not the be-all, end-all because I've just started playing some and I never know when I'm going to pick up someone new. But this is my mindset.
First off, as a default, I start at asexuality unless canon shows otherwise. Why so? Well, personal bias for one. I'm grey-asexual myself. But I figure not making any assumptions is a good start, a kind of blank slate. It's better than starting off with a heterocentric bias, I guess.
