People who ship Alastor and say, "but aroace people can still be in relationships and have sex."
Yes, that's 100% correct.
But have you considered that an aroace person in a relationship is still aroace?
Unless you're mindful of this when shipping a character with this identity, you're just using it as an excuse. I'm aroace myself and when I was in a relationship, I was still romance-repulsed and experienced zero physical attraction towards that person. Having a partner didn't change anything. I still loved them, just not romantically.
Why isn't this explored more in fics? Why is it never mentioned?
I'm not against shipping him with other characters. In fact, I'd love to read a fic where Alastor navigates a relationship as an aroace individual, just as much as I want to read about him not wanting to be in a relationship at all.
Please, don't erase his identity. That's all I'm asking. Feel free to ship whatever and whomever you like.

• Use the hand you write with.
• Make a fist with your thumb outside, not tucked inside. If it’s tucked inside your fist, when you punch someone, you might break your thumb. The thumb goes across your fingers, not on the side.
• Don’t be like in the movies—don’t aim for the face. Face punches don’t usually stop people, and you can miss when they duck their head or break your hand on their jaw. If you want to get away quickly, or end a fight, aim for the chest, or the ribs. If you really want to do some damage, e.g., you’re being attacked, aim for the throat, which will make it hard for your attacker to breathe for a hot minute.
• When you punch, you want to aim and hit with your first two knuckles. Not the flats of your fingers, and not your ring or pinky knuckles, which can break more easily. You can use your weight, if you’re on your feet, to add wallop, and spring into a punch with your feet and torso.

It's very endearing to me how many people are willing to keep an eye on a video feed so they can push a button and let a fish in the Netherlands get to the other side of a dam.
