Oh, this comment is absolutely allowed! :) And, well, there aren't a lot of asexual fic in most fandoms-- especially fic that I feel actually get the gist of asexuality. I can list a few of the good ones I've bookmarked over the years, though:

Lost In Waiting, by Lacey McBain
[SGA, Mckay/Sheppard]
Summary: Rodney, because he’s Rodney, manages to sound offended that John didn’t tell him all his secrets. It’s the reason John’s still talking to him, the only reason he’s not on the other side of the room.

I’m a 38-year-old virgin who really hates being touched?”

True, by Farfalla

I can't help it-- the first ship I was ever completely exposed to was Snape/Harry and I rarely come across many pairings with more dislike for one another (in a compelling way, at least) than that.

Haha! I can't say I'm an expert at asexuality either. All I can say is that I have more experience with it than most (literally!), but since there are so many aspects and different types of asexuality, I'm no where near an expert (though I'd like to think I can spot a bad assumption or stereotype when I see it-- you'd be surprised!). :)

Fascinating? Really? ♥ It feels good to be noticed every once in a while-- asexuality is usually so invisible (something that many ace's are perturbed by).

Anyway, I actually have an interesting article that mentions something like what you did about love (read the whole ( ... )
