Ink if he was in a Visual Novel

sometimes I have autistic realizations that hit really hard.
I'm listening to a podcast (science vs) episode about meditation and what it does/how you do it/if it works. first there was an example of a meditation for mindfulness and focusing on breathing and how it feels. I was thinking how that seems pointless because i'm always aware of how it feels to breathe: my chronically stuffy nose, asthma, ribcage/back hurting if I breathe too deep/etc. but I already knew I have to think about breathing more than most people or I might accidentally hold my breath, and my chronic stuffy nose is very annoying to deal with.
then this part i'm at now talks about how most people go through taking a shower without really realizing they're doing it, like they arent feeling the shower sensations and just go through the motions. so mindful showering is feeling the water on your skin, feeling the temperature of the water and how it changes, etc. "being present, knowing what it feels like, knowing you are there and alive and having that experience..." and that's what mindfulness is.
the thing about me, due to being autistic, i'm basically practicing mindfulness 24/7 against my will. my sensory units in my brain are on constant overdrive and I cannot turn them off. i'm aware of every sensation and feeling and sound and etc at all times and can't ignore them.
the big realization this gave me is that...I'm profoundly aware of being alive and present. i'm overly aware of what i'm experiencing at all times. while most people can use mindfulness to ground themselves from overwhelm and anxiety caused by every day life worries, I GET anxiety and overwhelm from mindfulness-like experiences.
how do i tune things out and turn off my brain? I need an anti-mindfulness method that isn't dissociating out of my mind 😅

"it takes a village to raise a child" is kind of an interesting saying. it isn't "it takes a family to raise a child," or "it takes a roster to raise a child," or even "it takes a lot of people to raise a child." it's specifically a village-- a group of people united by geographic circumstance alone.
inherently, the idea of a child raised in part by their community involves a child being raised in part by strangers. when you let your eight-year-old walk to the corner store to spend their allowance on a chocolate bar, they practice following traffic signals by copying the other people at the crosswalk. they learn that it's polite to smile when someone makes eye contact from all the grown-ups who smile as they walk by. they pet someone's service dog, and the owner stops them to explain why that's not okay, and that's their reminder to ask before they touch. they practice math with the teenager working the cash register, who tells them the difference between a nickel and a quarter and patiently picks through their fistful of change.
it takes a lot of trust to let your kid do this. in fact, I'll go a step further-- it takes a lot of faith. you are trusting that if your child screams, someone will come running. you are trusting that if they get lost, someone will walk them home. you are trusting that if they are vulnerable, nobody will take advantage of them-- and that if anyone tries to, someone else will interfere. and by and large, this faith is not misplaced. there's really no data in support of helicopter parenting. it doesn't lead to better long-term outcomes when you hyper-supervise your kid, and in fact, it often leads to far worse ones.

I am,, having a tad bit of artblock, so I am open to any sort of requests right now.
I do not promise when and/or if I will get around to actually drawing them because unfortunately I dont have a lot of free time, but I would love to know if there are any specific characters or scenes you guys would like to see me draw, I will try my absolute best to draw at least a few.

What some cats do you think have specific characteristics that go down their line? Like Running’s stripe or the Tawnyspots mullet. I feel like Firestar having a trait of his own that’s seen in a lot of his descendants is really fun
I try to play loose with the Family Traits (except the Tawnyrain Mane which so far is absolutely constant), but so far for family traits I have this mental list;
(Also it's worth noting i don't take realism into account AT ALL and I do not understand how genetics work and I will not learn <3 like water off a smoooooth shark)
Bluestar Family: Wolf Motif. Tails are dog shaped and they often have "capes". Dovewing is actually VERY Bluesy if you look at her closely
Goosefeather
Bluestar
Mistyfoot
Sorreltail
Dovewing
Lizardstripe Family: Minor cleft lip. Just enough that the front teeth are slightly exposed. So far it's only on Lizzy herself and Deerfoot but it will be popping up in Tangleburr's child, probably Talonclaw, the apprentice who canon killed to the Vicious Kittypets but in this rewrite survives.
Lizardstripe
Deerfoot
Talonclaw
Raggedstar Family: Glasses. I haven't drawn blinded Brokenstar yet but his glasses actually become shattered. Since this family became completely mixed with Newtspeck through Brokenstar, they also have Bicolored Manes with a stripe pattern.
Raggedstar (sunglasses)
Brokenstar (dexter)
Newtspeck (cloudy mane)
Littlecloud (big round peepers, cloudy mane)
Rowanstar (aviators, zebra mane)
Heartstar (librarian, zebra mane)
Appledusk Family: Apple Leaf Eyeshadow. I'm not even sure if anyone noticed my Feathertail design had a leaf for an eyelid. This is actually a practical way to me to always remind myself who Bears the Curse lmao
Rainflower
Crookedstar
Oakheart
Misty, Stone, AND Moss
Silverstream, Feathertail, and Stormfur
Lark, Pine, and Feather, Stormfur's kids
Reedwhisker and his siblings
Curlfeather
Podlight
Frostpaw and Co (when we get there)
Ashfoot Family: Cloudy tail tuft. A very WindClan-evocative trait.
Ashfoot
Morningflower
Crowfeather
Jayfeather
Breezepelt
Runningred Family: Horizontal stripes. Rosetail's tail also passes down this way, Thistleclaw's line lost it.
Runningwind
Longtail
Sandstorm
Leafpool
Jayfeather
Lionblaze
Flipclaw
Tawnyrain Family: The Mullet. Needs no introduction.
Tawnyspots
Thrushpelt
Dappletail
Darkstripe
Cricketclaw
Graystripe
Feathertail
Stormfur
Briarlight, Blossomfall, Bumblestripe
Plumstone, Shellfur. RIP Stemleaf you woulda loved wigs.

I know it's just the Terminal Crocodile Brainworms speaking but like
We know both Kuma and Iva-chan would become members of the Revolutionary Army 16 years after the two meet at God's Valley
And like. I can't help but to wonder if Kuma's flashback is going to tie to the backstory of the Revolutionary Army and how he joined the cause, especially since we are going to learn about Iva-chan's backstory at the same time backstory (and Bonney's??? Mom??? I'm assuming???)
And while I don't think we're going to learn much about Dragon through this backstory because. IDK I feel like Oda would save that for later, right now doesn't feel like The Time To Reveal Dragon's Backstory. Not to mention, if this backstory is meant to be About Kuma first and foremost, then adding Dragon into this mix would just distract from Kuma and Bonney's relationship, the current heart of the story (also is why I want to believe Ginny is Bonney's mom, since that would also tie to the heart of the story)
But I can't help but to wonder... if Crocodile was a member of the Revolutionary Army for a while, then might we see him even just briefly at some point during this flashback? Maybe? Perhaps? Even for just a panel or two? Please? Pretty please? 👉👈

What are your headcanons regarding what Hancock's first name was when he was still McDonough? Do you think it was actually John? I know during his backstory dialogue he quotes Mayor McDonough saying "I finally did it, John", but Hancock coulda easily replaced his old first name with his chosen one when telling the story.
I always go two ways. Either it was something short and/or sharp that sounds laid back and easy going, maybe unique and rebellious, or something really embarrassing. Like Gilbert (No offence Gilberts, just thinking of that Tweet for an example). Like how Flynn Rider changed his name from Eugene Fitzherbert. Of course, Hancock felt a connection to John Hancock and what he stood for, but I also think it woulda definitely helped (And been kinda funny) if in the back of his mind he was also thinking 'Man yeah fuck Gilbert why did they have to pick that?'
Imagine when he's telling Sole about his past, he's just like 'I just couldn't stand looking at the bastard I saw in the mirror anymore. Didn't help that his name was Gilbert' and Sole, despite the seriousness of the conversation, can't help but laugh at the joke.
In all seriousness- For me, he gives me Leo vibes. Leo McDonough.

the thing about the idea of antoinette being alive in europe is mr. armand "the only people allowed to be alive are the ones i love" would kill her on sight. i mean, the only reason claudia was alive for several months in paris is because louis was attached to her. antoinette wouldn't have a chance. at all. lol
