    Wow just wow, I really loved the whole interactions and chemistry you portrayed with Rosie and Alastor, you can definitely feel the bond and care they have for one another, the friendly banter, the gossip and tea spilled, the trust to speak freely and surprise of their actions of loosing their temper as they are honest with each other because they care so much Rosie for Alastors well being and Alastor not wanting to be more vulnerable and the way he spirals as Rosie tries to reach him and ground him before he hurt himself ✨𝓬𝓱𝓮𝓯𝓼 𝓴𝓲𝓼𝓼✨ I live for these types of interaction. Rosie demonic form LETS GOOOOO I need this aaaaahhhh I can’t with the way alastor just unhinged his jaw like an anaconda and fucking ate his food all in one go. Of course Lucifer would be such a sappy simp and Rosie acknowledging lucifers type was hilarious just needs to be taller than him so more than half of hell, Alastor is starting to care he just doesn’t realize it yet there’s more to it than just sexual and romantic attractions alastor, I cackled when alastor gave Lucifer the umbrella I could almost see the shine in Lucifer’s eyes as the rain fell on both of them very romantic vibes were given it’s always the asexuals/aromantics setting the mood without meaning too, yes don’t forget your Duckie mini you alastor. Lol instead of yassified Lucifer invented Duckiefied. I can’t wait for the conversation between alastor and Lucifer, it’s gonna be awkward it’s gonna be hilarious seeing how alastor will try to explain his ~𝓯𝓮𝓮𝓵𝓲𝓷𝓰𝓼~ and hopefully it will be wholesome, with just a little sprinkle of angst and misunderstandings.

    As a fellow Aroace with a dash of lesbian somewhere in between, seeing how Alastor was so clueless about well everything and considered to force himself into faking it and felt shame within himself, it hit too close to home, right in the feels, made me a bit emotional, haven’t felt this seen or vulnerable in a while, well ive never been in love or had a relationship with someone, honestly even in my late mid-twenties I still don’t understand attraction, like alastor i almost forced myself into a situation just to know what it feels like to fit in to be “normal” and to try fix something that was “wrong” with me to set myself straight (lol), I’m so glad I didn’t and stayed true to myself although I didn’t have someone like Rosie to immediately knock some sense and support me. With time and understanding I found my peace that I wasn’t alone and I wasn’t the only one who felt this way, that I didn’t need fixing, I’m fine just the way I am. Life’s a journey that we must navigate at our own pace.

    Muchísimas gracias (thank you so much) for writing and sharing this amazing piece, it’s not often I read characters so well written, or feel seen in them, love this story, love your story telling, portrayals and dialogue, I didn’t know I need to read something like this so bad I’m glad I found it, don’t forget keep being awesome 😎

      Ohhhh my gosh, thank you so much for your detailed comment and kind words! You have no idea how much I appreciate it — eeeee!

      I ADORE Alastor and Rosie’s friendship. Just getting together every Wednesday, spilling tea and just being pals. Love them for it.

      As for Rosie’s demonic form, yesss. I like to think that Rosie and Alastor have a similar demonic form since they cut from the same sort of cloth, but I decided not to get too into what it would look like; let you guys use your imagination. Meanwhile Alastor gets demonic for legit everything, including eating the rest of his food. It’s very rude to not finish your meal, after all.

      And yes, Lucifer has activated Simp Mode. As soon as someone tall, dark, and handsome is nice to him, he melts. And we love tropes of aromantics accidentally being romantic. Sucks for them, but entertainment for us.

      Ahh the talk. Originally I wasn’t actually going to cover it, but after seeing how much everyone was expecting it, I’ve decided to add a third chapter into the mix; having a blast working on it, too, but it once again dips into pretty serious territory. But hopefully you guys like it.

      Ahhh it’s so good to hear feedback from an AroAce! I’m just Ace, so I’m always glad to hear I succeeded in my attempts at representation. It’s really touching to hear your story, and it helps me to better understand the Aro experience. For this fic, I was mostly going off of my own experiences and translating them to a fictional Aro one, and it’s nice to know I was able to do well with it. I’m so glad you’ve found peace with your identity.

      Again, thank you so much for your kind words! It brings me so much joy to read them, and I hope you’ll enjoy the next chapter when it comes out. It’s going to be from Alastor’s point of view, so I’m really trying hard to get it right.
