#ask him about his special interests

[pasteilian]

The second I saw Leo wearing this fit I knew Donnie wasn’t the only brother on the spectrum 

#Rottmnt #rottmnt leo #he’s so ugly I love him #ask him about his special interests #if you give him a kaleidoscope he’ll be occupied for at least five hours #he does a happy stim when you show interest in the things he likes

🐉: "People used to make gargoyles with human features as well. Also referred to as Chimeras, these human-like gargoyles are famously known for being a hybrid creature with human faces or parts. Many common gargoyles are also called as such because they combine several different features from different animals such as its face, tail, wings, and body type."

🐉: "... But this is not your area of interest, so I likely must be boring you, no? Apologies. Let me instead think of something related to things you enjoy."

🌸: "No,

#honestly i don't care for gargoyles or architecture in general but if it's malleus i would willingly become an expert from osmosis #my s/o's special interest is in electronics and I don't really care much about those but I love asking him questions #and playing youtube videos on the tv related to his interests #because i love seeing him perk up #it's lovely #it'll definitely be the same with malleus and a yuu who cares about him dearlg #twisted wonderland #ventique rambles #malleus draconia #malleus x reader

Papyrus taught Flowey how to swear

YESSSSSSSS during some of floweys first runs for sure for sure

#one of papyrus’ special interests is etymology… #<- I don’t think that’s the right term btw #kinda #also #I think flowey would lie about his age at first so that’s why paps swears around him btw I don’t think he swears around children lol #asks #my art #undertale #ut #flowey the flower #flowey #papyrus #papyrus undertale

Do you guys know how in MLP ponies who have magic are only good at magic related to their specialty, but twilight's specialty is magic so she's good at all magic

That's Avior with special interests. He has a special interest on having special interests therefore being interested and knowing everything about everything

You cannot stop him

#and that's why him and starlight are such a good match #they ask him questions about his special interests allowing him to go on about them #and we all know that that's a one way ticket into a man's pants #me and the bich I pulled by being autistic 😍😍 #redacted audio #redacted asmr #redactedverse #redacted avior

what's it like being part of arguably the greatest draft class of all time – greatest dallas draft class of all time – with oettinger and heiskanen? so the stars took heiskanen and oettinger in the first round, you in the second round, so it was a very productive draft. is that lost on you, that class? no, I mean, it's, it's — it's truly a special moment, I mean, we always see it, uh, and think about it when it's ever brought up, how special it is. you know, you don't find a franchise goalie, a franchise d-man, and a player … a forward like me in, uh, one round very often. so, um, very — you look back on it now and uh, we hit all of the spots, and six years later we're all pretty, uh … producing, and being big parts of this team. and hopefully and ideally we're gonna be big parts through these, uh — our carers.

#hockey #stars #dallas stars #jason robertson #he is sitting like the world's sweetest & most polite babygirl #but also his thighs are just Out There #something something the duality of man #i will literally never get tired of the 2017 draft class getting asked about each other btw. keep doing it for the next ten years even. #make the special boys talk about how special it is to be in a special little group together! #though to get slightly real about it. i do think it's interesting how much it happens more specifically with jason and jake #& i wonder how much is it that miro came into the league earlier than them so media members had time to see him apart from his matched set #& how much of it is jason and jake having north america specific media training #and being seen specifically by media members as Guys Who Are Good With Media #z:edit #42129

Jamie’s the type of friend who actually tries to pack himself in a suitcase so he can go on trips with you. Or he just genuinely considers kidnapping his friends so they don’t leave. I’m pretty sure half of the team would be happily kidnapped too.

#jamie tartt #ted lasso #afc richmond #friendship #mental illness #daddy issues #abandonment issues #he wouldn’t have to kidnap them he’d just try distracting them enough that they forgot they needed to leave #he’d try to trick sam but he’d feel to guilty so he just makes him promise to spend extra time with him when he gets back #he’d make pouty faces at dani every time he remembered he needed to leave and then go ‘5 more minutes?’ #he’d probably frustrate roy into ranting for hours and roy wouldn’t be able to think of anything but jamie #he’d bribe isaac with rolos and animal crossing #he asks colin about welsh independence #he’d get moe to tell him all his conspiracy theories and then disagree or say something absurd just so moe would go off again #he’d tell richard that beer is better than wine and wait patiently for his ranting to end before saying something rude about french food #they’re all mostly himbos they’d probably fall for his himbo tricks #they’re all so neurodivergent he’d just pry and make them talk about their special interests for hours

the thought of cracking the spine of a book makes kevin nauseous. he like opens it just enough to see the words and holds the book at such uncomfortable angles to read— anything to keep the book pristine and intact. he does not let people borrow his books because he is a control freak (as a term of endearment) and does not trust them to take care of them the way he does.

and andrew is the complete opposite, cracking the spine as soon as he opens it. he annotates in pen. he dog ears the pages because who the fuck has time to find a bookmark. he throws books out of anger. he throws them at aaron for fun. he lets them get smashed and torn in his bag. he always keeps them, he just prefers them to look like they’ve been read.

#someone asks kevin what he’s reading and he doesn’t say the name he just explains the ENTIRE plot of whatever historical thing it is #then is like oh….it’s [book] by [author]…. #someone asks to borrow a book from him and he’s like “i’m sure the library has it” #andrew probably reads horror and sci fi #he probably fucks with stephen king heavy #i refuse to believe andrew “eidetic memory” minyard is “aLLeRgiC tO boOkS” #have you heard him speak… so poetic for what #i fucking know he’s read shakespeare. he hated it but he read it #imagining andrew as a child in foster care escaping in fantasy worlds to get away from his real life is doing something. bad. to me #kevin reads historical fiction and nonfiction #my baby has a special interest and i will do nothing but respect that #“kevin how often do you think about the roman empire” #“…every time i turn on the faucet… why…?” #and when they stare blankly at him he goes on a RANT about roman acqueducts and how they were #“—LITERALLY REVOLUTIONARY WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT??? we would not have running water THINK ABOUT THAT for ONE SECOND” #neil josten doesn’t read. he can’t sit still long enough to #aftg #kevin day #andrew minyard #all for the game #the foxhole court #tfc

you know if we do accept the last epilogue-esque sequence as a sort of dream/wish of ted's and therefore not necessarily canon, very funny if we then simply go "yeah, trent's book is called 'the lasso way' actually. he didn't change that. nope."

#listen on one hand #i think that like #i don't think ted actually changed trent's mind about the title #i think trent changed it because ted asked him to #and like that's especially interesting bc he even made a point of being like #'tell me if you disagree with anything and i'll tell you why you're wrong' #but he respects ted; more than that he likes him and he wants him to like the book--like him #anyone else and trent would have told them to fuck off but ted? ted asking him to change the title? yeah #i think he didn't agree with 'it not being about him'--and not bc of any feelings he may have for ted--but if we accept that him changing #the title is canon then like. he did it because ted asked. nothing more nothing less #maybe he felt he owed it to ted as the subject of the book; maybe he just respected him too much not to #maybe it's partially bc of his feelings; maybe it's because he just couldn't say no to ted #but it's ultimately just. because ted asked him. #and trent respects him; trusts him; cares about him #and that's pretty heartwrenching #but like on the other hand if we say 'no that was ted's wishufl thinking trent definitely went 'sorry ted it's called the lasso way'' #also like.... him being like. like quietly not changing it and if ted said something him just. being like #ted. i respect you. i care about you. i trust you. but with all due respect absolutely not #yes it isn't ONLY about you but YOU made this happen. YOU are special and YOU have a place here whether you can stay forever or not #yes it's about the team and the coaches yes you aren't a one man band but ted. TED. you touched lives. you changed lives. and that was YOU. #that was you and your philosophy and your attitude. #you made richmond what it is today. yes the team deserve credit too for the kind of bond they have now but YOU facilitated that #none of the coaches currently here woudl be coaches if not for you. the diamond dogs wouldn't exist. literally every single one #of our friends--OUR friends--wouldn't be where they are and probably wouldn't be as happy #you got through to people over and over again who were hurting and lashing out. to rebecca. to roy. to jamie. to nate. to me. #and you can be humble but there's being humble and there's acting like you don't matter to any of us like you didn't have an impact #like you can just leave without a trace. we don't blame you for leaving--i especially don't--but acting like we won't miss you and like #your time with all of us--our time--meant nothing is more insulting than it is humble because we /love you/ #and yes. it was the goddamn lasso way that built this place #this community.

A huge part of the reason Big the cat is so torn apart by people who arent Sonic fans and who ARE Sonic fans is because Big is, intentionally or not, extremely autistic-coded. And because he's fat. I'm not kidding

#Tat talks #Big the cat #he speaks slowly and simply and it can be difficult to get him to answer a question if you don't ask him in a specific way #he also doesnt speak much unless either prompted or when speaking to/about his Froggy #his special interest is fishing and its one of the only things he ever actively seeks out #he is so autistic. hes so autistic #and it makes him an easy target! yeah the fishing minigame in SA1 did suck bc it was frustrating as all hell #so he definitely gets shamed for that heavily as any character with a shitty minigame would #but if you ever see somebody mock him as a character its just making fun of the class [r slur]

Baby Fumi liked to copy down his favorite stories into his own journal.

#he was encouraged to keep a journal for controlling his emotions :/ #but all he did was fill it with emo poetry lol #ask him about the black plague #his also wrote down a bunch of proverbs from his grandfather #bnha #boku no hero academia #tokoyami fumikage #dark shadow #bnha fanart #mha #my hero academia #the special interests are interesting with this one #he used to be just like Midoriya fr

Chivetiger joined the clan long ago under the lead of Pinestar, but his life as a loner isn’t even a distant memory now. Though he spends much of his time alone, thinking up dialogues and stories in his head that fill his chest with pounding excitement, he is often the cat others in the clan turn to with their problems, as he always seems to have a hypothetical on how to handle everything. He’s happy to spit out his opinion on the matter, and then be left alone, no other conversation necessary. He can often be found in a shady corner, off to himself, sorting his collection of shiny rocks and mumbling softly to himself in little voices.

#If it wasn’t obvious #this man is AUTISTIC #All my characters are a little autistic because I’m autistic. So they all get autism infused #But I looked at this guys in game traits and said oh so this guy has autism then. This is INTENTIONAL autism writing #He collects rocks. Geology is his special interest. The ‘whispering to himself’ is him writing ‘dialogue’ for stories aloud #And talking in character. Ie. what I do every night to fall asleep. The scenarios(tm) #He’s so good at coming up with stories and scenarios and thinking about how things are solved. That when people ask him #He’s like oh yeah i figured that out for this story i came up with one time. Here’s your answer #And they’re like woah you’re so smart… advice prodigy… #And he IS. But not by intuition. By many years of accrued knowledge #His gender description is also directly inspired by my relationship with gender #I am me. I like some girl stuff and some boy stuff. None of the words bother me #But in my community where I actually live. I’m just what I was born as. Because its easier and I don’t feel strongly one way or another #Because I’m me! And that’s. What Chivetiger is too #‘Probably agender but I have a job so let’s not worry about that’. Or something. Let’s call it that #Tom until otherwise stated #righteous pines #clangen #clangen oc #warrior cats #warrior cats oc

God. One of my little sisters is such a bitch. She's done me some genuine damage in exacerbating my already social bad anxiety. But when I have dreams where she's been hurt or killed, it's so horrible bc she's still my lil sister :-(

#its bc last night my dad had a dream she was in a car wreck. he transferred that anxiety onto me #shes such a bitch tho.just like intolerant of things she doesnt understand. and she does not understand my unwell brain #i think she likes my youngest sistsr best now. which fair bc i do too but we used to be besties. we used to explore in the woods together #and play ellos and barbies and legos and poly pockets and magnets. and now we never text eachother. its sorta sad #its not just me tho. my youngest sister and i have a 4 year gap so we weren't really interacting much when were were little bc she was too #bby to me but shes such a genuinely lovely person now. shes a special ed and preschool teacher. i asked her mom how she ended up with both #of my sisters bc my middle sister is the most like entitled person i kno. like my parents r very generous and she doesnt think for a moment #about not accepthing things from them. she thinks shes owed that amd more. its so strange #and my mom was like. thank goodness i got the youngest bc otherwise id think something was wrong with me #im prob somewhere in the middle of them. my brain is just more fucked up so like im greatful but im struggling. theres not a ton of like #really obvious mental illness in my family tho. just here and there someone should b diagnosed and get a bit of help. my uncle is the only #other one who could possibly be bipo1ar but hes also got a lot of problems: severe adhd and possibly b0rderline. so it could just b that but #my dad says when u talk to him sometimes things just doent make sense bc hes had convos in his head wuth you so he thinks u kno already #idk. its interesting tho #unrelated

"I can't handle the fanon depictions of anyone", this is so true it hurts 😭

I‘ve never been so hyperfixated on a piece of media, without being able to read anything about it. The way every character get‘s flattened like a pancake and forced into a archetype is unreal.

I have like- 5 stories I can read and don‘t really engage with with the fandom in any way.

It‘s all just:

Monkey King is depressed and MK has to mother him and kiss all his boo boo‘s.

Macaque never did anything wrong in his life, it‘s all Wukong‘s fault. He is also secretly a mom.

What is Mei? Do you mean the month? Bitch can‘t even spell right.

Red Son‘s parents are still assholes, because parents changing for the better is impossible and children can‘t have decent parental figures I guess.

-Casually bastardizes everyone into an asshole so my fav has a reason to be sad-

"What is Mei? Do you mean the month? Bitch can‘t even spell right." IS THE FUNNIEST THING. HOLY SHIT. I'M CACKLING.

"I‘ve never been so hyperfixated on a piece of media, without being able to read anything about it" is also so relatable. I've never had my fandom experience be so self-generated before. I'm just kinda stewing over here, having fun, making my own gif sets and analysis posts. Maybe I reblog some fanart from time to time.

#and you know that's alright by me #Maybe some other folk want to scream with me #oughgh but your summaries are so accurate it hurts #At least canon is fucked up. #I should really finish my Red Son and MK fic. I have never written a fanfic before but hopefully it'll be palatable #the summary: it's post s4 special during the beach party. Red Son notices MK sneak off and follows him to Monkey King's cave #There is some convos about like. Idealization and living up to legacy and grieving a person that never existed. #MK is sad. Red Son does his best to provide some insight. #Tis a fic spawned from "hmmm DBK V Red Son and SWK V MK parallels are kinda interesting'' #And I thought it'd be fun if Red Son was like ''Look MK i've been there. But you gotta accept the reality and keep moving'' #Cause like. I think Red Son slowly realized who his father really was. And while he loves him obviously #Perhaps...there wasn't anything to live up too. And the Great Demon Bull King failed just as much as anyone else. #And post ''A Lifetime of Mistakes'' I think it would be cool if MK started to realize that too #aw beans I ranted too long in the tags again #oops #asks #lmk #lego monkie kid #imp's a little feisty

tonight is a "getting emotional over paul bellini" kind of night <3

#just thinking about how lucky i am that not only did he see me being a nerd over mouth congress almost two years ago and reach out to say hi #but also that in our first conversation he asked about my comedy and immediately was interested in seeing where it could go #like i have a distinct type of dynamic with each of the kith people i know of course #but bellini's always going to be special to me bc he's the first one i met. he's the one who met me before i knew anyone related to kith #both scott and bruce met me as someone who already knew someone from the show. but bellini met me as just a random fan #like he didn't have to bring me into the world of kith as much as he did but he wanted to! #and idk i'm just thinking about it bc in my little interview i did with him for my final in a comedy class #i did ask him what it was about my comedy that made him think it had potential #and he gave such a thoughtful answer that really showed he thinks i'm funny and that i could be a great comedian #and he referenced past work i've shown him etc. and it was all in that great bellini tone where he's very complimentary #but it never feels disingenuous or like he's just being nice bc he respects you enough to tell you his honest opinions #i value a compliment from scott or bruce or paul very much bc they're all some of my favorite comedians and my mentors #and of course having a different dynamic with each of them means i will value their comments in different ways #and i wouldn't say i value one person's feedback more than another's #but there's always something special about bellini bc he's the one who has known me the longest and knew me before all of this #(technically he's the only one who got to know me as a teenager bc i was 19 when we met even tho my 20th birthday was a few weeks later) #and yeah i really hope he's having a good night tonight bc he deserves it

Out of the grandmansters/egg bosses in the Archie comics, which one was your favorite?? It can be either from pre reboot or post reboot!

Hehehe unfortunately for you, anon, my fav becomes a grandmaster before the super genesis wave and therefore is my immediate first choice without contest

*Bangs fist on table* I love her so much

#sonic the hedgehog #archie sonic comics #lien da the echidna #anon interview #I'm too lazy to look up where that screenshot I have came from but I think it's during the endangered species arc before the worlds #collide special #Thanks for the ask anon!! I always love an excuse to shove a fav in people's faces🥺💖 #Honestly what I enjoyed about the grandmasters was how they were always playing this tenuous game with Eggman #And how a lot of them joined thinking they'd obtain power‚ only to have to worry about Eggman sacking them if they disappointed #I think Dimitri was probably my second favorite grandmaster just because his character was so much more interesting to me during this period #(from joining Eggman with the legion through to being found in a crate in one of Eggman's bases) #And while I don't have any specific favorites‚ I really enjoyed the complexity with the post sgw eggbosses #A lot of them joined Eggman to save their people or people they care about‚ or to have a better shot at keeping their people safer than they #would fighting against eggman #One of them just really likes him #Some of them joined because of cultural values (in this case #'the leader is the strongest' type of mentality) #And sure some still did it because of power‚ but post sgw makes it harder to ignore (as the story did just before the sgw) exactly what #conditions would drive people to join a conquering dictator‚ even if they hated him #That being said I don't really have a favorite Egg Boss #I guess I'll say maybe Clove or Axel #i just be ramblin #If you have any other questions about my favorite anything or my thoughts on characters or anything like that‚ feel free to shoot me #another ask!!🥰
