queer_scribblingSeason 2 Episode 7: Christmas Special.
Recap courtesy of Mullany.
There are times when Tristan gives off aro vibes.
Granted, not all the time, but that's probably a matter of writers not intentionally aiming for this. Even though he admits to thinking he'd wind up marrying Maggie in this episode, they have a conversation where the aro vibes seem to be there. She got engaged since they last interacted (he went back to Edinburgh in September to sit his last exam - Parasitology), and he's still the "good for a giggle, but not much else" lad.
This isn't a show that does onscreen sexual stuff, so he's only been shown kissing various girls throughout the two seasons, but I could see someone having an aro-allo headcanon for Tris. I'm not entirely sure how much of him thinking he'd eventually settle down has to do with amatonormativity, the books (and therefore the shows) being based on real people, some sort of writerly attempt at showing him 'maturing', or period typical expectations. (I can only see the marriage thoughts being more relevant as we get closer to World War II.)
