How much Slavic ancestry do Romanians? Surely not a lot.

A lot actually, but on average they have even more southern European like ancestry (Balkan, Roman etc)

According to these K13 ancient samples, Bulgarians are a bit less proto-Slavic than Romanians, with cca 45% on average.

My people are cca 60% proto-Slavic on average.

Originally no. By the time of the late proto-Slavs at least, most definitely yes(speaking of Y3120 here).Alot of people argue for a Celtic origin based on Western derived clades. Issue with this is that the common ancestor Y3120 people have with western clades is no closer than 1400BCE which is far too early.

For all we know, Y3120 drifted East earlier than classical Celts and bottlenecked among Proto-Slavs. Or, the "Pre-Slavic Csltic" branch that is partial Y3120 hasn't been found. Issue with this is no Western Europeans have been found splitting Y3120 to form a closer tmrca.
