I like a lot of thing when they happen to a character but as soon as it shifts towards me... ew ew ew no
I think the real answer is just that, you don't HAVE to explain it to anyone. It's such a spectrum, none of us ever fit neatly into just one category!
An aroace doesnt seek out sex or romance, but I feel like that doesn't necessarily mean it's totally off the table (with the aroace's consent and them wanting to be intimate of course)
I could be totally wrong, but I feel an aroace could still choose to have an intimate -moment- with the right person, and still maintain those feelings.

maybe it isn't aroace maybe it's highly specific boundaries. it's okay to be whatever, and characters are safe spaces to explore that.
