I think one of the worst problems with having the ADHD Internal 24/7 Radio Station, "the only station that broadcasts directly to your brain, from your brain!" is when you have to read words.
I purposefully don't put on music when I read so I can focus on the words of the text... but that doesn't matter because the ADHD Internal 24/7 Radio Station is playing the same song on repeat for the next 2 hours and I have to try and block it out as best I can to absorb the information from the text.

After a fight, autistic Dick and ADHD Wally not talking to each other.
Dick, hands a tablet with his handwriting: are you 🍃ing me?
Wally, sigh: no I'm not leaving you I'm just mad and once I calm down I'll be able to apologize and talk again. I still love you dude, I swear.
Dick, tipping and shows: what a re🍃

I have this very intense and specific headcanon that Leo talks really slowly instead of super fast, like he’s portrayed and generally thought to speak like. I think he doesn’t have a lot of experience talking to people, and his mind runs like x10 faster than his mouth so he speaks with so many pauses and a lot of ‘um’s and ‘like’s. It’s equally as incomprehensible, but also leaves the comedic room for people to not only wonder if he’s insane from the content of his words but also if he’s just extremely high. Like, he takes five minute pauses in between thoughts and scares the shit out of Percy, who just wanted to know how the pipes worked in case he wanted to water bend during an on deck fight.
Leo, working on a blueprint: but it’s like….
Percy:
Leo:
Percy:
Leo:
Percy, assuming he’s done talking, turning away:
Leo: um yeah like the interior stability—
Percy: what the fuck
He also forgets half the things he’s saying and remembers hours later and starts the conversation again, completely unprompted to the point that if he doesn’t get to it in the moment, the seven individually just sorta hang around him after an extended period of time to see if he’s going to finish what he was saying from the reminder that is seeing their face. The ADHD in him really shines in mid-fight conversation, especially when he’s seeing some of them for the first time that day during an attack.
Leo, randomly during an attack: HEY HAZEL!
Hazel, fending off a monster, worried he needs cover: WHAT?!??
Leo: MY FAVORITE CAKE FLAVOR IS FUNFETTI!!
Hazel, not knowing what the fuck that is: WHAT????
Anyways, I think the seven should’ve had more friendship qualities after living and fighting together, and I think they’d all form some sort of internal translator to understand the bullshit that comes out of Leo’s mouth. Thank you for coming to my Teddy Talky.

Audhd culture is being okay with being on hold for half an hour because the repetitive music and "We are experiencing unexpectedly high call volumes" doesn't bother you and is actually kind of soothing, but you can't sit and eat for family dinner
