Demisexual Character Quotes

“I never told you the details of how Cea and I started dating...I was worried and embarrassed back then about my decided lack of interest, in, well, everybody. I went out on date, well that part doesn’t really matter Cecilia was auditing a company representing at the time and there was a court case involved so we spent a lot of time together and became friends. Everything else, dating and being attracted to her, that followed after.”
“What are you saying here?“ Kai asks.
“I’m saying,“ I take a step closer, “ that I don’t get attracted to people that easily. In fact, it almost never happens. So I don’t think we can draw any fundamental conclusions about my sexuality. And maybe we don’t have to. I’ve never felt the need to label myself before, so why can’t I say I am more attracted to you and anyone else?”

“What’s so wrong in seeking happiness? We may be fractured, sure, but that doesn’t mean we can’t piece ourselves back together.”

“Fuck normal.” [Varick] took [Kieran’s] crumpled wrapper and slowly straightened it out on the table. He began to fold it in half, then half again, and finally one last time in half, making a neat square. “Normal is a societal construct that is created by people. There is no consistency across civilizations or cultures. What is normal to one person is not normal to another. It once was normal to own slaves and be prejudiced against people of color like yourself. It was once normal to make women wear dresses and cover themselves. And long ago it was normal to cut off someone’s hand for stealing instead of putting them in jail. Eventually, all societal constructs fall to new ideas. Normal is one of them.” Kieran stared at him with his mouth slightly open. “Now, just fold up your silly wrapper like you want to.”

“Demi means you need to have a connection with someone before you can have romantic and/or sexual attraction,” Serge said. “And dude, you have a connection with him. Like a hard-core connection. You’re connecting all over the place.”
“That’s not what this is,” Josy said faintly, though he was starting to doubt his own words.
“You care about him, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Do you want to hold his hand?”
“Oh yeah.”
“Hug him?”
“Such good hugs,” Josy whispered fervently.
“Kiss him?”
Yes. Yes he did.
“Holy freaking crap,” Josy breathed. “I find Quincy Moore attractive.”
Xander threw up his hands. “Good god, finally.”
“I think he’s sexy.”
“Good for you, man,” Serge said.
“I want to put my mouth on his mouth.”
“Okay,” Serge said. “That’s… good.”
“He’s hot,” Josy said. “Like, frigging hot. I mean, the whole sex thing can wait or whatever, but goddamn. Have you seen him? I wish I was a blanket so I could lay on top of him all the time and keep him warm.”
