mohammed avdol 🙏 (of course tanaki has to know what shay thinks of her brother) for the ask game

uwah thank you dale i was kinda hoping someone was gonna ask me about avdol,, didn’t mean to keep this in my drafts for so long 😭 hfbvjhdfv

send me a canon character and i’ll share shay’s thoughts, opinions, etc.

Shay’s thoughts — Muhammad Avdol

It’s conflicted. I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before; I can’t remember exactly when or where, but before the events of Stardust Crusaders began, Shay had a few run ins with him. She arrived in Cairo in early 1987—a year and some months before canon events began (Holly falls ill), but she’s definitely had a few run ins with him.

Shay was basically an ‘errand girl’ (for lack of a better term) and was frequently in the Khan el Khalili bazaar where Avdol mentioned his shop being, and because of the nature of stand users being drawn to each other, it was inevitable they’d have a run in or two. It was never a friendship of any kind, but he pointed her in the direction of where/how to find certain things a couple times, showing her how to properly pronounce some of the Arabic words on this phonetic ‘cheat sheet’ she’d carry around and she even got a reading from him for the hell of it once. She did wonder what happened when she stopped seeing him all of a sudden, however. (around the time of Avdol’s encounter with DIO, but she was unaware of that.)

Before the Joestar party arrived in Cairo, she didn’t even know his name, only his face. She’d heard DIO and others mention an Avdol, but she didn’t know it was him, and that gave her a weird almost disappointed feeling she couldn’t describe, like she didn’t want to believe that it was the same guy.

She was impressed by Magician’s Red during their 1v1 in the mansion, especially how well he wielded his stand despite being injured and armless—his ‘replacement’ arms made of flames especially took her by surprise. She didn’t want to fight him, but she knew she was as good as dead if anything happened to Lord DIO, so she had to.

All in all, perhaps they may’ve gotten along in another universe, perhaps they’d even be friends.

sitting down on a rock with my hand under my chin like the thinker statue. this isn't about anyone in particular or anything specific but i find it interesting how many people on tumblr treat 'neurodiversity' ... i personally find the words 'neurospicy' and 'tism' kind of juvenile and they make me roll my eyes but when i see people get angry over these words or insult the people who use them i wonder why they feel that way. why is it okay to attack people over these words that you think are embarrassing or 'cringeworthy' when ... well, autism and many other developmental disorders, cognitive or intellectual disabilities, and mental illnesses may make some people behave in a way that you think is 'embarrassing' and 'cringeworthy.' with autism specifically, social awkwardness, restricted interests, and difficulty understanding or following social norms are extremely common and well known symptoms that often cause embarrassment, confusion, or mockery. i think it's very interesting to see people who claim to be accepting of autism then publicly and very personally criticize others on the spectrum for a 'cringeworthy' behavior, in this case using words that are too 'cutesy' or 'juvenile.'

there are a lot more examples of this kind of behavior on tumblr. even among my own circle of mutuals and mutuals-in-law, composed of many people with autism and other developmental disorders, disabilities, and mental illnesses, i often feel like i am walking the same invisible tightrope as i do in social interactions in the physical world. i rarely come across people who are really earnest, even if they post image macros about being nice and sweet and as tall as one strawberry or something. every day i see people on here being mocked for misunderstanding something, for not getting a joke, for saying something unintentionally rude or irrelevant ... the other half of the equation might be that the people doing the mocking, who are sometimes (most of the time in my circle) autistic or neurodiverse in other ways as well, deserve leeway because they themselves might not realize they're violating an invisible social rule or are acting inappropriately when in their minds it's just good fun. i think that's certainly very true ... i also think some people are just mean and hypocritical. again this is NOT about anyone specific it's just patterns i've personally noticed.

anyways. 'i'm neurodivergent and a minor' is still funny to say out of the blue sometimes but my heart sinks when people try to conjure up an image of a disabled person as the butt of the joke every time. i'm not like Those autistic people who call themselves 'neurospicy' and whose special interests are 'cringe' things like broadway musicals or shows i don't like and who won't shut up about being gay or trans and who are really just pretending to be like me ... :( i see this sentiment around sometimes and it hurts my heart. i don't have a conclusion other than i think everyone myself included should be kinder and less preoccupied with shielding ourselves in 1000 layers of irony and sarcasm, reinventing 'neurotypical' social norms and sanctions in the process, and more thought should be put into if what you are saying is in line with what you value about equality and acceptance

Memory is a fickle feral little beast and it will not be tamed no matter how we try to cage or cajole it. It just runs. It does as it pleases. Sometimes it shows the truth of what happened; more often it shows the truth of what we wish had happened. Memory runs and we run after it, hoping and scared.

controversial maybe but i truly believe nurses and anyone overall in the human medical field should never have access to any social media where they can record and giggle over their medical malpractices and patient’s personal information and health, if you do that you’re going to burn and rot in your grave

watching the detritus laden underbelly of the IF fandom become even more visibly and vocally exclusionist during pride month is...........not surprising.

tapping my "not all queer rep is written for specifically you bc queer authors are their own individual people who do not owe you specifically anything and there is a difference between things that make you personally uncomfortable and things that are Problematic" sign as well as my "biphobia is tired as hell" sign. leave authors alone, leave bi people alone, leave your exclusionist bullshit at the door before i dunk you in the garbage can.

my gender is like… imagine if an alien from a planet where there’s somehow only one gender + sex - or a million genders + sexes, or no genders but still sexes, create any system you want - and some human told it that it was a woman. the alien would be confused but not necessarily offended. they would probably go along with it to fit into human society, and they’d do what society instructed them to do - wear clothes from the women’s section, use she/her pronouns, maybe have a "feminine haircut", maybe have mostly women friends, adopt a human name that’s used by women (or is unisex), and so on. does that make them a woman? if they’re told they’re one and they follow the rules, does that change the fact that their gender on their home planet is actually something completely different? if they’re kinda uncomfortable with the whole ordeal, what then?

or imagine that a gardener stumbled upon an ant that had gained sentience and could communicate with humans. the gardener could explain to the ant that scientists determined that some ants - wingless ones that can’t reproduce, plus the queens - are female, and other ants - fertile drones - are male. the ant could explain haplodiploid sex determination and how sex determines their job, but is kind of irrelevant to social stuff, unlike human gender and sex really. maybe the gardener would insist that this little ant was a woman because it’s a worker ant. maybe the gardener would tell the ant that if it doesn’t feel like a woman, then it can be trans and transition to male or nonbinary. but can an ant be a man or woman when "man" and "woman" are foreign, human things? is it even nonbinary, if gender doesn’t matter to the ant at all?

and i’m not an alien or an ant, i am a human person, but that’s what gender feels like to me. a strange concept which i often forget actually applies to me, too. am i uncomfortable being considered a woman? it’s a grey area, really. it feels like an act in some ways. i don’t like being called she/her or the name i was given at birth, and i wish people would see me the way i see me. but going along with the whole "being a woman" thing is an easier, safer option than explaining all this, and i don’t really mind much how i physically look in regards to gender (eg wearing dresses is fine, but ive tried binding and that’s cool too. really the only factors in choosing how to dress and present are comfort and suitability to the situation). i don’t feel like a woman but i don’t feel like a man. am i nonbinary? nonbinary technically describes me - i’m outside of the binary of man and woman - but my gender isn’t really nonbinary cause idek if i really have a gender at all. am i agender? idk, i mean do i have to pick a specific label at all? i’m just a person. all i want to be seen as is a person.
