you mentioned you worked security and now i’m in emotional pain because i feel deprived of feel-good security anecdotes (this was a not so subtle request for some if you have the time and/or energy, please and thank you). hope you’re having a wonderful day today!!

It's mostly confidential but if I'm vague and change details for privacy I can give a few examples of times I really enjoyed my job!

Got a vague call that someone someone "having a freakout". Arrived to find someone having a panic attack. Cleared a place for us to sit down and stayed with them. Once they calmed down they told me they'd just found out a family member had passed away. Exchanged some old stories and got to see them smile a bit before their friend arrived to drive them home.

Someone I'd removed from a place before recognized me on the street. Thought they were gonna kick my ass. We wound up talking instead- turns out they were homeless and had some addiction issues they were working through. I split my lunch with them and hung out till we went different ways.

Concerned passersby reported someone sitting under a service dog, ha people freaking out bit. Got to verify they were okay and make sure they weren't disturbed till they were ready to move on. It was nice to make sure someone could do what they needed and continue about their business without it being a big deal.

Found someone unconscious and unresponsive. Got them paramedics, paramedics took them to the hospital.

A very small child very politely informed me that they were lost, and asked if I could please help them find their mother thank you very much. Absolutely delightful kiddo, got them sorted out.

Saw a kid being absolutely reamed out by their parent for doing nothing particularly odd or rude or out of the ordinary. Asked if everything was good, and parent exhausted informed me that "Oh, sorry, they're Autistic". Looked to the kid and went, "Eyy, Twinzies!" And flashed the jazz hands. Parent looked horrified, couldn't believe I was "allowed to work there". Kid lit up like it was christmas. Spent the next few minutes making faces with the kid back and forth behind their parent's back. Hope they're doing okay.

Person I talked to fairly often, who was homeless and regularly camping around behind the property, approached me after two months away with clear skin and clean hands and informed me that they were four months clean. I don't see them around anymore. Last I heard they were moving into a new apartment.

Someone who was breaking it off with an abuser told me they'd seen them in the parking lot and asked for an escort to their car. We arranged it so I could walk with them when they left whenever they went home. Super nice person, too.

At one outdoor property with regular patrols, I'd regularly come across dead birds who'd hit the windows and fallen. Boss said to toss them in the dumpster but instead I'd take em out to the woods. Doesn't feel right to put a thing that breathed in the trash. Wasn't part of the job, but... I dunno. Brought some peace.

Dude was ripping me a new one one day, going on about my "tough guy" attitude, accusing me of harassing him, saying I'd never be a man so I should check myself. Told him "I'm sorry for your bad experience with me today. Here is my employee identification. If you'd like to place a complaint, please feel free to contact my district manager", and handed him my boss's business card. Reported the incident to my boss afterwards. He never received any calls. Felt fucking stellar

good cow-munication

pairing: lee felix x (gn) reader

type: drabble

warnings: fluff, mentions of non speaking, reader uses korean sign language once, mentions of the reader being anxious and overstimulated

notes: i saw these sweatshirts on tiktok and my brain just thought of this little scenario. this is more for like neurodivergence (autism) but i suppose it could be for anyone who doesn’t/can’t speak 🫶🏻 also please correct me if you’re a part of the autistic non speaking community if there is something better to call these periods for those of us that are more vocal. i did see a video where a lot of things were being discussed but nothing had really been agreed upon but i want to be respectful 🩵 here is the sweatshirt mentioned

not taking requests at this time

masterlist | info

—————————————

the day was normal.

you did your thing and was waiting in the evening for your boyfriend to get home as your usual schedule had you expecting. felix was excited to get home to you, as he usually was, finding himself walking a bit faster than normal despite the aches from dance practice. you knew he was home, not by the door opening and him walking in but by the sound that was made outside the door.

“ahh!”

most would have said it was a bird call but you knew it was just your boyfriend. moments later he came rushing in, excitedly tossing his shoes and bag to the side as he came over to you.

“baby! i got something for you it came today!” he told you, bouncing on to the couch next to you. “can i give you some kisses first though?”

your lix was always so thoughtful, wanting to make sure you were comfortable before showing you affection. the second he saw you nod, giving him the ok, he leaned in and kissed all over your face quickly before returning his attention to the brown box in his lap.

“right, so i found this company online that makes things for like diverse people! queer people, neurodivergent people, and so on. they have this hoodie that i thought is perfect for you!” he explained, tearing into the package, not bothering to get something to cut it open.

he handed you the card and stickers that came with the order before tearing into the wrapping paper. his smile was the widest you’ve seen in a while as he held up the hoodie for you to see.

“look! isn’t it cute?! so, it’s for when you’re…” he paused, his eyes rolling back in his head in thought trying to remember it correctly. “not speaking! right? not speaking! that’s the right one… so, when your brain is too much and you can’t speak, look! it’s got these little fluffy cows on it! i know you love those.”

you watch as felix continued to explain the sweatshirt to you in full detail. your heart nearly exploding from how he was wanting to support you during your harder moments and prepare for good communication.

“look! this one’s happy, so when you’re feeling ok you can point to him and let me know. or! this one’s so cute, he’s eating noodles so when you’re hungry then you can point to him and i’ll make you some food!” he paused to kiss your head.

“and then the sleeves have ‘yes’ and ‘no’ so you can answer any questions! what do you think, angel?” his eyes were wide, expectantly waiting for your response.

it’s funny how well he knows you because your anxiety was high today and you were overstimulated, not feeling like you could really speak. you wordlessly pull off the hoodie of his you were already wearing and pulled on this new hoodie, smiling big as your head popped out of the top hole and pointing at the happy little cow on the front.

“oh, happy! you like it? i’m so glad!”

nodding, you reached up to tug at the collar of his shirt to pull him into you as a thank you.

“aw, yeah, i know what that means.” he joked once he broke the kiss and leaned in again.

when you separated again, you kept close to him, looking at him like he put the stars in the sky, so happy and grateful to have a partner that cared so much about you. you brought your hand up and brought it down to the top of your other hand.

“oh, ‘thank you’? there’s no need to thank me, love. i just wanna make sure you always feel safe and loved with me.” his cheeks raised making his eyes disappear with his smile. “so, what now? hungry? nap? anime?”

you thought for a minute, trying to figure out what your body was telling you before pointing at the cow eating noodles.

“hungry! i’m on it!” felix got up to prepare dinner.

hii !! could I request some headcanons with raven and an affectionate reader please? thank you for your hard work 🤲

(sneaks in some autistic Raven headcanons)

Raven with an affectionate Reader

You're a really affectionate partner? Yes please! Raven is definitely not going to complain.

Raven loves affection. Of all kinds. She likes to receive it pretty much 24/7 and likes to rib you gently about how she's dying from lack of affection if you leave her alone for so much as an hour.

Of course, Raven respects your boundaries, and knows when not to joke, as well. She'll always give a heartfelt apology if she crosses a line. Of course, sometimes it's so grand it can come off insincere, but… that's just Raven being Raven! You know she really means it.

So, yeah. Super affectionate? No problem for Raven. She loves it. Heck, it'll probably make her a lot more affectionate too, because she tends to subconsciously mirror her loved ones. And Raven was pretty affectionate already, so you can imagine what she's like now.

As a poet, a lot of people would assume that Raven likes to express her affection through the written word. They wouldn't be wrong – if you're dating Raven, you should expect endless prose about all the beautiful and admirable things about you. Her talent for sensationalism can bring a boost to even the lowest of egos, as you can't help but believe what she's espousing about you.

However, Raven also has a definite love for physical affection, too. She's a lot stronger than she appears – the perks of being an S-Rank Sinner. She loves, loves, loves to cuddle, and she'll greet you after every work day by picking you up and spinning you.

She likes the combination of bridal carrying you while spouting some silvery poetry of her adoration. That's Raven for you!

Sleepy Raven is even more cuddly, if you can believe it. Raven tends to focus extremely intently on projects that have her attention, be it poems or student papers, forgetting to eat and sleep…

…and that means that when she comes out of her state of hyperfocus, she crashes hard. If you can, she likes to be carried to bed; in either case, make sure to hold Raven tightly in your arms until she falls asleep. And then go to sleep yourself. She likes to be the little spoon in times like these.

If she can't get away with her human form due to current circumstances, sometimes Raven will perch on your shoulder as a bird and nuzzle against you. You should probably discourage this habit, but no matter how many times you tell yourself that, you never do, because Raven is just too damn cute and you love her silly little ways of being affectionate with you.

Even if Raven herself can't be present, you can always count on a crow being somewhere nearby. She's clingy alright, but she's also looking out for you in this way.

Also, Raven loves to shower and bathe with you! It's nothing sexual, she just enjoys the physical intimacy of the moment. And she's totally willing to wash your hair as long as you wash hers in return.

However, you should always be careful when touching her back. It's riddled with scars, old and new, and they tend to hurt more than Raven lets on. Still, as long as you're gentle about it, she's amenable to letting you put ointments on her scars – a good habit to get into, as Raven herself is too grandiose and prideful to ask.

Of course, Raven, with her pain temporarily soothed, gets even more affectionate, somehow… Not that you're complaining.

Courtney Autism Headcanons I have because all of my favs are neurodivergent

Fun fact- my very first headcanon of Total Drama was that Courtney is autistic. Is this me projecting? YEAH AND WHAT ABOUT IT????

She got diagnosed at a rather early age (3 years old) with Autism, though her family always stressed to her that she should never tell anyone for fear of it messing with their reputation

Her special interest is court cases, funny enough. She loves looking up court documents and watching trials and she enjoys talking about how if she was a judge/ lawyer, how she would proceed/defend the case. Her parents noticed this and began pushing her into pursuing a career as a lawyer

She also has special interests in geography, birds of prey, MMA fighting and musical theater (though that last special interest often gets repressed since she's been taught that things such as theater are frivolous)

REALLY good at masking, so much so that she unintentionally will mask. Years of suppression has really helped in making people believe she's fully neurotypical! She was masking in the 1st season, up until she gets (unfairly) voted off

No, she doesn't have a fear of green jelly, but it is a MAJOR sensory issue for her. In fact, most gelatin and gelatin-like foods trigger her. She can't eat anything with a gummy texture

She unfortunately has a very hard time regulating her emotions since her parents couldn't be bothered to assist her anymore beyond getting a proper diagnosis. She can have very big reactions to very little inconveniences (especially if she knows she has no control over the situation)

VERY routine-oriented, so if that routine veers even slightly off track, she gets upset. She plans her week out in advance since schedules give her a sense of security

When she's not wearing shoes she walks around on her tiptoes

She also has a stim of balling her hands into fists and moving her arms up and down

She doesn't tell anybody about her diagnosis when she first arrives on the island, since it's been imbedded into her head that people will see her as less than if she tells anyone (and it's 2007, people- especially teenagers- are absolutely ableist)

Harold figures it out pretty quickly though and just outright asks her in private while they both are on Playa Des Losers since he wanted to know. She denies it at first but literally no one has just ever plainly asked her that and so she kinda breaks down and admits that yes, she is autistic, and Harold just stands there confused because why is she acting like she just got caught doing something horribly wrong

Turns out, in Courtney's eyes, something IS wrong with her. Harold straight up tells her that there's nothing she can do to make her autism "better" but it's not like being autistic is a death sentence. It's part of what makes her, her

That sorta blows her mind because all Courtney's life she's been made to feel like something is wrong with her. She never thought to just…. accept her neurodivergence. Huh

From then on she learns to just accept herself for who she is. It's a lot better than living your life ashamed of something you can't change

Duncan doesn't figure it out until like 5 years later LMAO

She doesn't keep many fidget toys, BUT, she really likes typing on keyboards. She keeps a couple out-of-use keyboards around and that's partly why she also loves her PDA

#td courtney #tdi #total drama #I know that canonically Courtney and Harold want to hit each other over the head with comically large mallets but #Imagine for a second they had the respect for each other to have a decent conversation #td headcanons

Autistic medic gives me life ❤❤. Any random hcs for him? /nf /pos

of course! autistic medic is canon to me

ive already talked a bit about him being autistic before so a few of these maybe be things ive already mentioned but ill say them anyway

this is already obvious to everyone already but his special interests are surgery and medicine! anything medical really. hes also very interested in anatomy and pigeons (specifically pigeons. he probably couldnt tell you a lot about parrots for example, but if you want 100 facts about doves then hes your guy). and of course hed have a bunch of other hobbies and interests but those are the big ones

hes more prone to shutdown than he is to meltdown. not that meltdowns would never happen, theyre just more rare. usually a shutdown would come first and on the occasion hes pushed past that then a meltdown would follow, and after a meltdown then hed have a second even worse shutdown. thankfully situations like these are rare

like ive said (and drawn) before his main stims are rocking, hand flapping, echolalia, tensing up and hand wringing, and biting. a few other less obvious/not as common that he has are sparkly/flashy visual stims, he also loves both feeling and seeing anything gorey, he likes petting his birds, certain noises would be very pleasant to him like his doves cooing or coins clinking together and the sounds of the mediguns. hed love the smell of coffee and isopropyl. hed have a few others stims too but theyd be more rare and very situational like hitting himself or toe walking.

hes weird about his gloves and his coat. as in he would put them on for a specific reason but once he gets used to having them on he would absolutely hate taking them off. he has to keep them on for the rest of the day no matter what. and vice versa, if hes not wearing his gloves or coat then he cant just?? randomly put them on?? no no its all or nothing theyre either going on for combat and then staying on for the rest of the day or not at all

hes very excitable and loves to talk and if hes engaged in a conversation or excited about something then his voice will gradually get louder and louder and he'll keep interrupting or talking over people. he wont even notice it until someone points it out to him

you cant take him to the store because hes going to touch everything and then very quickly regret it when hes suddenly overcome with the overwhelming soul crushing need to wash his hands and theres no sink around. its so over :[

bad at left vs right and identifying north, south, east, and west. nothing else to say here, its not that he gets lost easily, he can find his way around just fine its just that hes awful at directions

very strict about his routines and lists. he cannot stand it if he makes plans and they get postponed or canceled. he hates it if he makes a list of things to get and then cant get everything on the list exactly correct. hes actually more than willing to do things on impulse in the moment but only if hes already mentally planned to do that or if it doesnt interfere with something else he has going on

hes very blunt and direct. he says exactly what hes thinking and answers questions very honestly and directly. people often find him to be rude for this but he doesnt get why. speaking of him being seen as rude, he used to get in trouble for always rolling his eyes or talking back to people because for the longest time he didnt realize that trying to stretch your eyes or avoid eye contact or staring could all somehow be considered 'rolling' your eyes. or rude. and talking back... isnt that how a conversation works? hes never been very good at knowing when he is or isnt supposed to reply to statements.

ive said it before but i will say it again. he has little to no empathy. every autistic person is different of course and not all autistics have low empathy, but im tired of low enpathy being seen as a bad trait. im tired of people with low empathy (autistic or otherwise) being seen as evil and uncaring. having low empathy doesnt make you a bad person. he has very low empathy and often struggles to connect with and understand others. he frequently will have the wrong emotion for the situation and may sometimes come off as uncaring when he is not as sad about something as they are, etc etc etc but he is not some horrible evil monster for it and i do not want to see anyone saying that because its just completely incorrect. hope this helps

anyway!!!! theres some autistic medic!!!! i hope you like him as much as i do!!!!

#replies from the void #autism #asd #tf2 #tf2 medic #autistic medic is canon to me sorry #i know the truth #the doc is in

silly Izzy situation: he gets a parrot.

HE GETS A PARROT OH THIS GAVE ME BRAIN WORMS

-Stede is the one to get him the parrot- something about how hes got the wooden leg he has to complete the look? honestly izzy wasnt listening, stede was using his excited voice and izzys learnt he can zone out a bit when he gets like that. there was a hat too but that went to someone else Real quick (the parrot was trying to eat it anyway)

-i know nothing about parrots but im gonna say stede gets him an African grey. it's the goth-est parrot and they're Friends Now, hes got to give a gift that fits in with izzys Look

-when stede gives it him he protests LOUDLY but when stede gets all sad and says he will return him izzy draws a knife. wtf you can't return my gift Stede

- the parrot learns to say fuck REAL quick

-izzy learns bird care from buttons, obviously- izzy is Rules autistic he needs to know How you look after his pet. he is super rigorous with following the rules and at least one crew member has faced a tirade for feeding him something bad

-the bird rides everywhere on his shoulder. frenchie makes him a little pad so his claws don't scratch izzys leathers and so he can grip better

-he starts stroking the bird as a comfort (in Correct places, thank u buttons) he doesn't notice hes doing it but everyone else does. lucius has a sketch

-you know how some pets are like? exactly like their owners? yeah. this is the grumpiest fucking parrot and they are perfect together. he only likes izzy. after a while he mimicks izzy yelling at the crew and nobody knows what to do they all just. stare. izzy laughs.

- the parrot spends a little too much time with the swede somehow (jackies? izzy & jackie friendship my beloved i will force you in anywhere) and picks up his singing. its. something. they end up using it on raids as part of a fuckery. two haunting tones to create a sense of unreality, of being surrounded.

-i didn't give the parrot a name here because i genuinely believe izzy wouldnt give it a name, hed just call it 'the parrot', occasionally 'my parrot' when drunk. the crew call it mini Izzy.

(buttons asked the parrot its name)

-someone once gave the parrot a knife because they thought itd be funny. we do not talk about the parrot knife incident.

#i kinda wanna elaborate on more of these but this is already so much #izzy ignoring stede is not in a mean way! theyre buddies izzy has learnt when stede is Talking and when he just wants to ramble #hes still half listening but most of it just. went out the other ear. hes already planning all the things Stede didnt pick up #theyre autistic to autistic communication. to me #god this was so fun i LOVE thinking about izzy situations #nyxtalks #ofmd #izzy hands #israel hands #ask

HEY OMG?? SAW UR AIZAWA X AUTISTIC READER IT WAS REALLY GOOD OMG!! I SAW THE LITTLE MESSAGE AT THE END ABOUT OVERHAULLL..

I HAVENT TOUCHED THE MHA FANDOM IN A MINUTE BUT YOUR WRITING IS SO EEE

COULD YOU DO THE SAME PROMPT BUT WITH OVERHAUL? ^^ IF NOT THATS TOTALLY OKAY, REMEMBER TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!! 💗

OMG OMG OMG HIIIIII OFC ILL DO IT!!!

once again based off this comment cuz' I have no other reference point

BRO THIS MAN HAS A WHOLEASS HAREM OF DOCTORS OVER YOU AT ALL TIMES (translation : tries his best to get you to take your meds)

He also threatens everyone else to be quiet so you can focus, and if they don't he's probably gonna take them apart and have you feed them to stray cats and dogs. of course you don't know that! so don't worry your little head over that it's nothing :)

He will moniter what Audiobooks you listen to weather you like it or not. he mostly has you listen to topics that you are interested in. like poetry? here's a book of poetry about birds! want to learn how to write a book? here's an audiobook just about that!

however he tries to restrict you from podcasts and radio shows since they tend to talk about, society and everyday life

once again, he does get you a bird mask if the smells are too much, but he'll settle for a medical mask if you claim that it's too bulky for you.

AND WE ALL KNOW HES NOT LETTING HIS BABY GO SHOPPING AND GET ALL THOSE ICKY GERMS AND THOSE CLOTHING TAGS THAT CAUSE YOU DISCOMFORT

because in overhauls mind: causes you discomfort = LET IT BURN.

okay it's short, but this made my day, thank you for requesting, I hope to hear from you again soon!

oh and @lostsleepiebirb

I hope this is what you wanted, I'll post some more overhaul content soon!

#yandere mha #yandere bnha #soft yandere #soft yandere x reader #child reader #daughter reader #teen reader #overhaul x daughter reader #yandere kai chisaki #yandere kai #yandere overhaul x reader #yandere overhaul #kai chisaki #kai chisaki x reader #platonic yandere overhaul

Someone on Reddit tried to say that Rick only truly loves Beth, and to prove them wrong, so here I am!

tldr:

Character analysis of Rick Sanchez from an autistic fans point of view, understanding his attachment styles.

He'll do anything for BP, if season 6 proves anything, it's that he'll die for BP. He literally admitted to loving him, which I have not heard him tell or say about anyone before in the show. When

he does say stuff like that it is significant. Bird person is the only character on the show he has been openly genuine with.

If season 7 proves anything, Pers is the only one that can sneak up behind him and grab him out of nowhere without getting some snarky comment, mean look, or a left hook. They both care about each other deeply, that is clear. Rick was extremely

upset by the wedding with Tammy. Rick told the bird person how much he respected him more than anyone, even when he contradicted himself by saying nothing matters, he wanted to be with Percy. He wanted to travel with him and spent every moment with him.

"Then why did you help me?"

"I respect you, and I wanted you to know that you could respect me too."

" But if nothing matters...?"

"You matter! You matter to me."

"Uhhh- Rick... the relationship we have-"

"I never used that word!" - Rick (denialism)

It's funny how after this he calls him a judgmental dork, and not something much harsher.

"Why the fuck are you risking your life for that asshole!?" - Memory rick

"Because, you love him."

"You do maybe, but I don't."

"Yeah, yeah, you're real cool. Now, come help me save his life or fuck off, because I don't need you.

(Very much so loves BP.)

"I'm sorry Rick, but we cannot choose the ones we love" - Pers

"You got that right! Why do you think I'm still fucking down here!?"

Birdperson mentions that he would be dead if it wasn't for Rick, this also accounts for multiple times now since he brought BP back to life recently. Rick has stuck his neck out for the man so many times contradicting his "nothing matters" front, because that's what it is, it is a horrible coping mechanism to ignore your problems and pretend they don't exist because 'nothing matters'.

Its a problem that I have and I'm working through in therapy myself, it's called Denialism. Because 'if you shut yourself out from the world and your problems, then nothing can hurt you, and they don't exist'. You convince yourself you're in control when you're not, you have the least control, and it fucks you up. Rick isn't truly and fully nihilistic, or else literally nothing would matter to him. He makes sure to keep his Morty alive, he constantly brags on about how he can just get a new family, but he has the same Morty that he's had since the beginning and sticks his neck out for him as well.

"No, Morty. Because you were too afraid to tell me. What we had was abusive, don't you see? I'm a bad partner, because I never made you a true partner."

"I was afraid if I jumped in a hole you would just stand there and watch me, you wouldn't even jump in after me!" -Morty

But then Rick in season 1 literally jumped in after Morty when he fell through the garage floor into the Schrodinger's cat void.

"Be good, Morty, be better than me."

And when Rick starts crying at his memories of Morty in season One, but he refrains from expressing it so that Morty does not become, as he puts it, "cocky" (denialism)

I would also like to point out I feel like in the later seasons he starts calling Morty 'buddy' more?? he's a lot nicer to him than he used to be, and just recently allowed Morty to hug him without pushing him away, actually hugging back. He's also stated that he respects summer very deeply, which if he says that about someone, it really means that he does. He sees his Diane in Summer, and he also implies that summer is like a cat, her affection and respect needs to be earned; unlike Morty's dog like affection that is just given away. But we also hear Rick say that Morty reminds him a lot of himself when he was younger, this implies a lot of parallels.

Memory Rick brought out a lot of Rick that we didn't see previously, a person who wasn't fully tainted by the lack of treating mental Health issues, coping issues, unhealthy attachments, and all the other things that led up to Rick being the way he is. he said his heart broken so many times, he's been backstabbed, he is very hurt person. This doesn't excuse all of his actions but is a very good explanation and reason for why he is the way he is and the way the human psyche copes with it's environment to protect itself. it's like walking up to a caged animal with a taser, these are his defense mechanisms, it makes him look like a dick on the outside but currently it is the only thing that he knows how to do on instinct for protection, and that's why he's in therapy. This is why I believe he's genuinely trying to get better, he can get along with his therapist more than ever, even if he has sly remarks he genuinely listens to Mrs. Wong.

"I don't like being told where to go or what to do. I consider it a violation."

"There's a lesson here, and I won't be the one to figure it out"

"I don't discuss problems, I incinerate them"

"It was charmingly analog. For a sec, you kind of made me like myself." - Mem Rick

"You'll grow out of it." - Rick

He resents his younger self for helping him and makes sure to mention that he "grew out" of his ability to like himself, Rick has some extreme self-hatred. it's hard to fully love someone or Express a healthy relationship when you can't even have a healthy relationship with yourself.

"You act like you're the one that got stabbed in the back!" -Morty

"Because I AM THE ONE, Morty. You wanna know why I replaced myself in the beginning of that stupid knights of the morning sun thing!? I SAID don't take the fucking sword! And you were like "Whatever", like I'm our neighbor Jean or David Arquette or something!! You called me boring! I've become dog shit to you! That's what happens when you let people in and they stop respecting you! They touch your shit, they screw things up, they KILL your fuckin family! Go ahead and trust them, you're gonna learn the same fuckin thing." -Rick

I recently read the autistic rook hcs you made and I really enjoyed it!1!1!2!! Can you do an autistic sunflower that had a meltdown over loud noises OR they got lost in a very crowded place and they couldn’t find Finn anywhere? Take your time :D

The not so but so happy day

When you woke up today, you couldn't find your favorite cup to use. Slightly causing your mood to dampen in the morning but you decided to use the back up one. Your favorite comfort snack was out in your stash causing even more dampening on your mood.

Then your clothes today seemed so itchy, even though you washed them to your liking and made sure they were a good texture to use today. But despise all of this you decided to power through, it's just little things. It's fine, nothing to get too worked up over. You started to think about Finn, and what your going to do today with him!

Today was suppose to be a small shopping date, where Finn and you wanted to get snacks. Even though he said he'd make them but you wanted your comfort snack. And Finn understood since the comfort snack you get is really good. He also remember you saying you needed to re-stalk on it anyways so two birds with one stone.

When driving up to the store it didn't seem like a bad day, you where excited to rant about your snack. Giving reasons why you chose it since Finn asked while driving you there. But once getting there at the store, you realised that there was a lot of people there today.

The blonde looked at you "Do you want to go to a different store? I don't mind if don't want you to get overstimulated Sunflower." The want for a snack overcame the anxiety of people and crowds you shake your head. Simple replying "I'm sure I'll be fine!" With all the little things this morning you just wanted to have fun. You made a plan and you wanted to stick to it.

Walking in it did seem slightly louder than usual but when Finn started to talk you didn't mind. But hearing a mom slightly scold a child for touching a toy they weren't supose to you got a bit twitchy. Then hearing the wheels of the cart, was it always this loud? Then the stomping of the feet, the lights felt a bit too bright. And your clothing, too fucking itchy.

"Sunflower?" Over all the noise, brightness and feeling you couldn't hear him. Your hands clutching your ears to silence everything, eyes closed tight, and slightly groaning as you curl into yourself.

Then a bang was heard causing you to jump and yell a bit. Some people in the isle with you glancing your way. Seeing a teen say something to their friend and them laughing. Where they laughing at you? Why was there so much eyes on you? Why is everything so much right now?

Since you weren't replying to him Finn gently touched you. Grabbing your attention he signed to you 'I'm going to take you out of here okay?' When seeing this you nodded with tears swelling your eyes.

Finn held you close and abandoned the cart, only thought in his head was getting you out of here. He quickly avoided people who were looking at you two, along with no one in the way of getting out of the store. Finn smiled as he finally got you and him out of the store.

Then taking you slowly to the car he turned you to him. Gently taking your hands off your ears he spoke quietly "Sunflower, are you ready to talk now?" Nodding you finally reply "S..sorry it got too much..." Finn shook his head and gently held your face.

"Sunflower, you don't need to be sorry. I should have known when it was getting too loud in there. Do you want to go home? Or do you want me to hurry in there and grab your snack while you wait here?" You smiled at your boyfriend. He was so considerate of you, but sometimes it did feel like you took advantage of this.

Almost as if he read your mind he kissed your forehead "I'll gladly do anything for you Sunflower. Just name it, I want to make it comfortable for you." With a smile you just replied with going home.

He went to your side of the car and opened the door "My Sunflower~" he said with a bow and a cheeky wink at you. Giggling you kissed his cheek and sat in the car as he closed your door. Watching Finn jog around the front of the car to get in and to bring you home.

On the way home he asked you on your hyper fixation to ease yourself since you still felt bad about your meltdown. Once getting into he house he made a quick drink and texted someone fast before getting your comfort movie on.

Half way through the movie there was a knock on the door. Finn smiled as he got up saying to watch the movie while he checked it. You heard a bit of a conversation but ended swiftly with a soft click of the front door. When he came back you gasped happily it was your comfort snack! And the few things Finn needed from the store.

Finn handed you the snack gently and rushed to put the other things away so he could fully give you his attention. As you happily munch on the snack he smiled as you seemed so happier now. Leaning in he gave you a quick peck on the lips and listened as you ranted about the movie.

Hi RBS,

Hope you are doind good !

I saw a lot of discussion on the bird app about the editor on the boat being a creep with WYB.

He looked really comfortable and happy to me. I have not seen him smile so much at an event in recent times…

So, wanted to know if I am reading the situation wrong ..

Hi Choko! I'm doing well, thanks - hope you are too! 💛.

Rocco Liu was not weird in any way with DD. They have known each other for years, and seem to have a normal relationship. DD does not look even remotely ill at ease, so if people think that he was being a creeper, then it only follows that DD was okay with it. Is that what people are trying to put out into the world? 🤔

One thing that I find frustrating about the fandom is that there seem to be quite a few people who try to look for something negative or melodramatic in everything that happens.

This is especially true when it comes to DD. People are constantly trying to make it out like he's crying or sad or unhappy or angry or even hostile or 'rude'. It seems like some people do not know how to read his demeanor at all.

There was a hot search on Weibo during that boat ride, something like "GQ awkward boat ride" or something along those lines. I think it's understandable that people found the boat ride a little bit awkward. I think the whole boat concept in general was awkward, not just with DD but all of the stars. But at least all of the other stars only took a minute or two to get across the water. They seemed to intentionally drag the final boat ride out and it ended up two or three times as long as the rest of them.

EDIT: If you're wondering why there was some tension at times, here's what their view was from the boat:

Awkwardness is one thing. I think anyone with a million spotlights on them taking a weird boat ride that was two or three times longer than necessary could be forgiven for appearing to look forward to the thing being over. 😅😅😅 But to start trying to create all these other kinds of melodramas around it... it doesn't serve any useful purpose besides pointless negative gossip.

During the boat ride both of them looked like I think you or I would have looked; at moments relaxed and laughing, and at moments feeling a little bit 'deer in the headlights'. But toward each other they seemed overall pretty at ease.

In fact DD looked more relaxed than he would have with a lot of other people. He didn't behave in a formal way at all, and I think we all know how formal he can be with people he's uncomfortable with.

Rocco is rumored to be gay, which makes sense because he reads to me as a very queer guy. He reminds me so much of certain kinds of queer guys I've been close with. Sort of a Nie Huiasang meets Jesse Tyler Ferguson, if I can put it that way. 😅

Gay or not, he seems like the kind of guy I think DD would be comfortable around at times, and other times vaguely annoyed by, just given Rocco's social exuberance and how different it is from DD's quiet, calm personality. But every time I've seen him and DD together they've looked mostly relaxed - even in the clips where people are claiming DD looks uncomfortable - and Rocco has behaved respectfully and professionally toward him.

And I have to say it because it really stands out in this situation: I hope to hell this 'creeper' take isn't motivated by homophobia. There are a lot of people who assume the worst of any overtly queer person, or assume that all homosexuals are always on the prowl.

It's one thing to read a relative stranger weirdly, though, it's another thing entirely to read DD in negative ways.

This type of thing is really nothing new. Every time DD appears in public my inbox fills with claims DD looked sad, or lonely, or upset, or uncomfortable, or even angry or rude. This is one of the hazards of being a pretty calm guy like DD is.

I know this all too well as an autistic person who doesn't have a lot the kinds of facial expressions I'm apparently expected to have. My face is almost always pretty neutral.

Throughout my life I've had to deal with people thinking I'm mad at them, upset, unhappy, sad, and on and on and on. I've had people come to me with entire stories in their head about what I'm thinking and feeling, and why - stories they've cooked up around their own insecurities and expectations, which are totally inaccurate.

And it's always struck me as odd that people would think such things. I don't hide my feelings. I'm pretty direct and forthright, and I don't deal in hints or subtext or try to lead people down a psychological path or play mind games. I don't have any time or patience for that kind of thing - not from either side of the situation.

DD is the same way. He doesn't mess around or perform social behavior the way he's expected to. He doesn't make himself out to be fakely exuberant or cheerful, nor does he hold back his honest feelings when something bothers him. He doesn't conform to expectations or put on a show for people. He's just himself.

Most of his fans have come to understand this about him and have grown to love his honest, authentic, straighforward personality and accept that with DD, 'what you see is what you get'. But there are some people who still seem to read things negatively and expect him to be someone he isn't.

That's my take on it, anyway. Everyone will have to make up their own minds about how to interpret things.

Edit: If you are wondering whether DD is comfortable with Rocco, you might want to take a look at this clip.

For those who missed the event posts:

New Pinned Post

I'm no longer in need of back up money, so commissions aren't needed, but if you ever want to commission me, I'm usually open. I also occasionally put some of my art on redbubble.

Anyways, hello everyone, I am too lazy to find my old crack DID pride flag (it'll come up some day and I'll link it here), and I figured I should slowly update some of my intro stuff for this blog after not touching it for a fucking minute.

You can call me Feathers - we're a 21+ year old Buddhist mixed-AAPI intersex nonbinary system (they/them) that is at late stage recovery and regularly floats between final fusion and functional multiplicity (in what we call Wishiwashi Recovery). As a result, we don't always tag which part is out and sometimes tag "alter: fei" which is a short hand for a state of final fusion. Sometimes we might tag which part is dominant, but it's all whatever.

We're diagnosed with DID, C-PTSD, autism, trichotillomania, OCD, and honestly a number of things cause complex-trauma life. We have some physical disabilities but nothing that typically causes too much obstruction in our day to day.

As a result of our state of recovery, we really don't have a set headcount, however we were / are polyfragmented.

Some fun things about us and things you'll see on this blog:

Due to the fact that DID is no longer really that much of an interesting topic / impactful part of our life, we only occasionally post about DID and our experiences with it. While it was the original purpose of this blog, as a depiction of our healing journey and what healing with DID can look like, we decided we would rather just post about whatever sparks joy in our life. As a result, rather than much content on DID, you will likely see things relating to the topics below. PLEASE feel free to send asks about ANY of the topics below. We love to talk about things.

We are Buddhist (primarily non-theistic; Zen) and we really enjoy it. We particularly like the philosophy and do practice it. Admittedly, we identify as being god awful Buddhists, but thats okay cause its part of the process.

We love research and plan to go into it when our ducks are better aligned. We particularly love research and literature around developmental psychopathology, trauma, dissociation, animal behavior, and the more abstract neuroscience topics (particularly consciousness research). We likely won't post much on it as overtly here because I don't enjoy talking science on tumblr much because most people (in my experience) don't actually want to talk about research as much as they want to prove their point. (For the moment, we have a psych degree and work fulltime with autistic children - FUCK ABA ALL MY HOMIES HATE ABA)

We are avid bird watchers and regularly document / photograph the birds we see and upload them to ebird. We really enjoy it as an activity and social engagement and really love sharing that joy and knowledge with people. We actually have a minor in Avian Science and have been tested on North American ID skills. We also know more than we need to about chicken biology as a result of said degree. If you want to send anything about birds, bird watching, or asking for a bird ID (even non North American), they are ALWAYS welcome and you are ALWAYS allowed to tag us in any bird related content.

We do a lot of creative work and have dedicated ourselves (withour writing partner) to a large story world project that we've been writing for over a decade now. We actually specifically started grinding our art skills in 2020 specifically just to help build that world up. Art is one of our largest self soothing coping mechanisms. We are going to turn that story world into a comic and a TTRPG system so please check out @thedevaaffliction.

Overall, we really just like thinking about a lot of topics and things as part of both our interest in research, philosophy, and as part of our Buddhist practice. We don't really find an interest in arguing discourse / syscourse because we really dislike and see very little benefit in debate. That said, we love to discuss experiences, thoughts, feelings and perspectives on complex topics and as long as the intent is to discuss and share rather than to "win" or "prove", we really enjoy that sort of enrichment in our life so we do welcome it. That said, we withhold the right to deem any conversation as more debate than discussion and to abandon it.

Additionally, related to the fifth point, we believe in being fully transparent about our past and admission that we were wrong as we think it is very important to be able to re-evaluate your beliefs and opinions and grow. In our mid teens we actually were pretty far into the alt-right pipeline and until about a year or so ago, we were staunch anti-endos. These days we are basically commies and very pro-endo. If anyone has any interest on how we pivoted so hard in our opinions on those topics, we are more than open to talk and discuss it as well as any insights we pulled from the experience.

Also we love martial arts - I forgot that cause I'm not particularly XIV brained rn but we REALLY enjoy martial arts.

We suck at being labeled and having labels. We're just very very queer.

--------------

DNI:

People who put on their socks/shoes in the order of Sock-Shoe-Sock-Shoe

That's about it. We liberally block, so we don't really worry about DNIs. If we don't like your content for any reason, we will remove it from our dash. Whether or not you want to interact with us is up to you past that point. Generally, we welcome anyone to follow as it can make for good conversation.

Autistic! Greenbean AU Headcanons: Stimming edition

HEYAA, so, here I have some stimming headcanons (and probably also do some of this when is anxious) for all of us.

Now, some things you need to know before read:

English it's not my first lenguaje, I'm trying my best but I speak spanish, so if I have something wrong or I less some word conector, please! Let me know

I haven't been diagnosed with autism or any neurodivergence (I've never been to a psychologist or a psychiatrist really) but my friends suspect, many of these things I do myself. In any case, I have been finding out more about the subject, reading and seeing testimonials, even so, if I wrote something wrong or far from reality, let me know! I am interested in learning.

This AU it's a modern AU without powers or something, I have plans and history for this sooo, keep that in mind

-CHEW, LIKE, CHEWS A LOT, he chews the drawstrings of his sweatshirt, the sleeves, his fingers, THE TOWEL, literally ALL

-When he's like 10yo Jay and Nya gif him a chew necklace, probably blocky

-AUDITORY STIMMING, he makes little sounds like a little rat o bird, CLICKS, WHISTLING ORRR repeat some word because it's feel good in his brain

-Stimming with sounds was more frequent when he was a kid, now he makes a lot of masking because he doesn't like the people KNOW about his neurodivergent, he knows it's not something bad and he really can't control that BUT STILL (we can say was Harumi's fault but that's a story for another blog)

-Move his hands, FLAPPING, snapping fingers but they are more common when he has an excess of energy or he is really happy so he needs a way to release that circulating energy. He also jump with flapping and scream when he really excited or talk about something he really likes

-He cracks his fingers, moves his joints, plays with his fingers and with his rotating ring

-The rotating ring was from Kai

-Play with his friends hands, really likes Nya or Kai ones because they have RINGS and blacellete (Cole also have but he prefers rings)

-Shake his legs, his foot, twist his joints and make small movements like swinging AND idk how to call this but my friends call it "taptap de patita" "foot taptap" KSJXJSK

-When his in crisis or overstimulated, he rocking back and forth or just hits and pulls hair

-Tiptoe walking, but also was more frequent when he was a kid, early he learn he can't walk like this because it's weird so more ✨masking✨ know he now it's nothing bad but it's to late for that, so he do it but in really specific moment

BONUSSS:

-Cole made all his friends crochet bracelets, currently Lloyd plays a lot with her but more because of anxiety

Little Greenbean flapping his hands because he's excited

That's all! He really don't do all of that now, It's more in stages. Garmadon and Harumi have an important role. 👁️👁️

Thanks for read (*˙˘˙)♡

You’ll Always be My Favorite Ghost

Summary: Snippets of life in the penthouse.Daniel Molloy keeps learning new love languages. Daniel Molloy keeps loving parts of Armand he never really saw coming.

Notes: This is saved in my notes app under the title “The A in Armand stands for autism.” So that’s the vibe here. Show universe, but I borrow liberally from the books (mostly Queen of the Damned). I apparently only know how to write fics about Daniel Molloy shedding his grumpy facade and taking care of these vampires. He’s. A bit smitten here. Primarily Devil’s Minion,but there’s some background Daniel/Louis also. I feel like if you’re already autistic and you become a vampire, you get like. Turbo Autism. Autism Squared. Autism 2: Electric Boogaloo. As a final note, these characters are most likely improbably nice to each other in this fic. But I’m here to chew gum and write self-indulgent fanfiction. And brother, I’m all out of gum.

Warnings: Sensory overload, blood, some brief references to animal death.

Louis no longer sleeps in a coffin, but Armand still does. If you ask him how he knows these two facts, Daniel Molloy will tell you to come back with a warrant.

It makes sense, he supposes. Louis clings to every scrap of humanity he can find, and the king size mattress and the bedside table and the sleek lamp that looks like you need a resume and a cover letter just to touch it are all pieces of the elaborate fiction he has created for his own edification. Armand, on the other hand, may enjoy his human playacting for whatever incomprehensible reason, but he is, fundamentally, a 500 year old monster, and old habits die hard.

That’s his theory, at least.

Of the two options, Daniel prefers the bed. He thinks he does, at least. It feels less eternal. Although, all things considered, ‘eternal’ must be how a coffin is supposed to feel. The first time that he shares this narrow space with another, he has to remind himself that Armand is not a bird-boned, fragile thing. The first time that the coffin lid closes over him, he swallows back a stab of panic at the same second as the vampire whispers, “Do you hear that?”

Daniel listens. Listens with human ears, with old ears. Hears nothing. “No.”

“Exactly,” Armand sighs, nearly a purr. All of him seems to relax at once, until Daniel no longer has to wonder how sculptors find softness in the marble statues they carve. His lover is asleep within seconds. Maybe this is what “sleeping like the dead” means.

It’s too quiet for Daniel’s taste. For some reason he finds himself consumed with thoughts of how he’ll know if the fire alarm suddenly goes off. At first he thinks the only sound he can hear is his own heartbeat. Then he lays his head down and finds he can hear another, in near-perfect sync with his. This stillness and softness is foreign. Armand is typically as taut as a bowstring, a mass of twitches and fidgets, apparently on the verge of shaking apart at any second. But here in the quiet dark—where has he heard that before?—there is something like peace.

Daniel sleeps.

There really is nothing on earth that can prepare you for the experience of entering a room to find someone microwaving your smartphone.

It’s the smell, mostly. Something of smoke, something of metal, something of melting plastic microchips. It sends Daniel barreling into the industrial kitchen bellowing profanity. The microwave is sparking and zapping. Armand stands a few feet away, expression wild-eyed and unblinking. He has pressed his fingers over his ears.

Nothing has caught fire yet when he rips the door open, staring at the smoldering thing within. He finds a pair of salad tongs in a drawer and reaches into the microwave with them, removing the charred remains of his phone and dropping it in the sink. It sparks unexpectedly and he turns the water on, sending smoke rising off of it.

Daniel leans over the counter, head in his hands, unable to bring himself to say anything yet. He has plenty of questions but all of them begin with “what the fuck is wrong with you?” and he has learned from past experiences with Armand that this is the wrong response. His final choice of words isn’t much better, as he asks, “You wanna explain why the fuck you decided to put my phone in the microwave?”

The silence from Armand lasts too long. Daniel knows what he will see when he turns around: the hands balled into fists, the tiny, almost imperceptible self-soothing movement of thumbs over knuckles again and again. The heel to toe rocking motion. What had Louis called him? Metronomic? So he hadn’t lied about everything.

He turns. Takes it all in at a glance. “You…okay?”

He’s just had his personal property destroyed, and it doesn’t make any sense that his instinctive response is to gather the the culprit, the monster, the dead thing responsible into his arms and tell him that it’s fine, really, he only needed that for work and for communicating with his doctor and for maintaining contact with the land of the living.

“I’m not—mad.” He offers, half choking on the words. He hopes that isn’t a lie, because he knows Armand can read his thoughts if he wants, “but, yeah, my editor is going to have a coronary when he can’t reach me, so next time maybe find something that won’t—“

He’s stopped short by a tiny, frantic shake of Armand’s head. It takes him a moment to understand what he’s seeing. Ah.

“That’s why we don’t put metal in the microwave,” he explains with a put-upon patience that reminds him of an elementary school teacher. He has to remind himself that Armand is his senior by more than a few centuries, even if he has never had cause to find out what happens when you leave a fork in the microwave on accident. This monster, who microwaves living things and who has developed an emotional bond with the garbage disposal, is distraught over the unexpected light and sound of Daniel’s phone being nuked at 1200 watts.

“Hey,” he says, stepping away from the counter. He keeps his movements slow, his palms open and his hands in view. It never hurts to remember that Armand is a thing made of teeth and claws. He reaches to brush away a lock of dark hair, but gets his hand captured instead. Armand holds Daniel’s one wrinkled hand in his two smooth ones, then lifts it, strokes it against his cheek, smells it.

Some distant, half-dissociated part of him is incredulous at the idea that this is his life now. It fights for dominance with the part of him that is marveling at the smooth coolness of Armand’s skin, at the feel of his lips on every inch of his palm as he continues to explore him. Then Armand nips experimentally at one of Daniel’s fingers and he draws back with an irritated huff, brought back into the moment by the sharp pain.

Armand looks more focused too, less lost at sea, as if he has been re-anchored. He tosses the lock of hair Daniel had been aiming for out of his eyes and says, “I’ll order a replacement, you’ll have it within the afternoon.” He turns and begins to walk away as though nothing has happened.

“You’re paying for it!” Daniel calls after him.

“Naturally.” Armand does not look back.

Daniel goes to wash the blood from his hand.

There are seven different cuts of the film Blade Runner. It inspired a sequel, a series of short films, an anime, a series of tie-in novels (in spite of already being based off of a book), and a handful of projects set in the same universe.

Daniel is pretty sure he has experienced all of these at this point.

Some evenings he wakes up alone in Armand’s coffin, and follows the sound of Blade Runner to find his lover. He’s used to locating Armand sitting with his legs crossed and hovering a few inches above the couch, his eyes alight.

For his part, Daniel is tired of Harrison Ford, tired of Rutger Hauer. He has made attempts to ply Armand with other Ridley Scott films, and none of them have captured his attention so fully.

When asked about it, Louis smiles knowingly and says, “He’ll move on eventually,” with the patience of the saint he pretends to be, “you’re thinking within the confines of human time, Daniel.”

He almost snaps that human time is all he has, last he checked, but he stops himself.

Later he falls asleep on the couch with his head resting on Armand’s lap. The soundtrack is, as usual, Blade Runner. He wakes up to the sound of the film restarting, but also to the feeling of ever-eager, ever-curious fingers combing through his curls as Armand watches the film with rapt attention. And Daniel decides maybe the movie isn’t so bad after all.

It has been a long night.

Daniel is exhausted. Armand has collapsed, limbs all akimbo. It has been an evening of unfocused rage, of discomfort, of bloody tears. An evening where none of Armand’s clothes fit correctly and his hair tickles the back of his neck, and the sound of Daniel’s keyboard has driven him to the edge of despair. Louis has surrendered his bed as a soft place to land and Armand lies on it, looking strung out and unfocused.

Louis is better suited for the task at hand, with his near-silent movements and feather-light touch. But Daniel is the one who enters the room and takes a seat on the edge of the bed, setting aside an armload of hastily gathered supplies.

He starts by wiping away the trails of bloody tears. Armand is as cold as ever, but his eyes are fever-wild and he shivers under the cool of the damp cloth.

“Let’s get rid of it,” Daniel suggests. He maneuvers the vampire into an upright position and sets to work on the mop of dark curls, clipping them short with a pair of scissors he found in a kitchen drawer. The knowledge that the hair will all be back in a few hours is the only thing that makes him brave enough to go after it with his perpetually shaking hands. The end result is uneven and nearly alarming. Armand appears shorn. But he also looks as if he can breathe again.

Finally, he redresses him in a pair of his own pajamas, a couple of sizes too big but worn to inoffensive softness and smelling unmistakably of Daniel, in spite of being freshly laundered. He guides his head back down to the pillow. Armand curls back in on himself.

The night is still new. Perhaps later Armand will emerge from the room on his own. More likely, Louis will carry him to his coffin when the morning starts to creep in, and Daniel will share the bed with Louis today, to give him space and silence. Tomorrow night Armand’s soft curls will be back. Hopefully by that time they will again be tolerable. If not, Daniel still has the scissors.

Although Daniel is the only one in the penthouse who needs to eat food to survive, the kitchen is stocked for a family of ten.

It’s also arranged by color.

None of this is Daniel’s doing.

It is a typical evening. Louis is sipping blood from a mug like it’s coffee, and Armand is loading a blender with Twizzlers, tomatoes, and steak, cooked rare. Daniel watches as Armand puts the lid on the blender, starts it with the press of a button, and then rockets to the other side of the room to observe from a distance, ears covered.

Later, Daniel will find himself cleaning exploded insect legs from the microwave. Later the penthouse will sound like Blade Runner again. Later, he’ll probably be coerced into drinking whatever is going to come out of that blender. Later he will hold Armand close and feel him relax in his arms once more.

“How old are you, again?” He asks.

“Five hundred and fourteen,” Armand says, when he has turned off the blender.

Well, Daniel thinks, at least we know it wasn’t vaccines.

Louis chokes on a sip of his blood, or maybe a laugh. Armand turns and eyes them both, his face a mask of curiosity at a statement he does not understand.

“I love you,” Daniel says, without planning to say it.

“Here, try this,” Armand replies.

I just wanna let you know that your writing is living rent free in my mind and is actively fueling my sonic obsession ♥️♥️♥️/pos

If you're still doing them do you have any headcanons for Knuckles Sonic and Shadow? (the blorbos)

AHHHHH thank you sm sm !!! 🫶🏾🫶🏾

I'm unsure if you mean separate or as a team/working together so I'll try to squirrel in a little of both. I hope this is to your liking 🔥

As a team

I'm pretty sure any team with Sonic on it is just referred to as team Sonic ngl, I don't know what they would be called anyway? Just bc they have so many conflicting traits

They'd probably end up with something generic like team Force or smthn

They all have a music preference but don't mind the music the others listen to

They bond mostly by beating each other up. It's all in good fun. Kinda.

All three of them are quiet one on one but are nothing except overstimulating when together

Sharing Tails is actually the worst thing to ever happen to them, as well as Tails. They fight constantly. All the time.

They rarely ever actually say things that would cause emotional damage, and they're all horrible at apologizing, but they're all learning together. Since everyone understands hating emotional vulnerability so well they cut each other some slack

Normally only two people are fighting at the same time, allowing the other one to act as a mediator. Though, three-way fights aren't unheard-of, and they usually get over it after punching each other a bunch instead of talking through it

Shadow and Knuckles take great joy in teaming up against Sonic when he gets too cocky

Group costume except they all showed up as the same thing on accident and started brawling because of it

Argue like brothers. Everyone is tired of them. Everyone. However, when it comes down to it if you upset one of them you upset all of them. Especially if you upset Sonic, the other two have way less restraint than him. You will get jumped I fear

None of them keep track of anything. They lose things constantly. Important documents? Yeah they're gone. Why'd you even give them those? At this point it's your fault you know how they are. Shadow is the only one with an excuse (I headcanon Shadow still suffers from short term memory problems many years after his not-really death)

None of their sleep schedules line up. Ever. Someone is always running on empty and is cranky all day.

Separate

Sonic is an early bird and takes naps throughout the day. Shadow is a night owl and doesn't really need to sleep as much as the average person. Knuckles goes to sleep super super early and has the sleep schedule of an old man

Shadow spends a lot of time trying to figure out newer technology. Despite being the ultimate lifeform it just really doesn't come naturally to him

Knuckles is the same way except he doesn't care, and only really tries when Tails asks him to

Sonic ends up being shorter than most if not all his friends and is very salty about it

Sonic and Knuckles are audhd

Shadow is autistic OCD <- projecting

Shadow's house is covered in incense. Every room has one. They're all lavender scented.

Shadow hates change, Sonic has mixed feelings

Knuckles is a chronic headache haver. Like no wonder he's always in a bad mood, do you know how hard it is to get Advil when you live on a floating rock

It's okay, Knuckles has tons of natural/organic remedies for most sickness anyway

Sonic is really good at charades

Shadow is super sentimental and refuses to admit it, he has lots of old mementos that he simply refuses to acknowledge but can't bring himself to throw away

Knuckles is fluent in multiple dead languages

Sonic and Knuckles are both super into geography, one is way better than the other one at it but you can choose which is which lol

Knuckles likes grapes but can't stand any of the faux grape flavors of processed foods. He wants grape flavor not purple flavor.

On the same wavelength, he doesn't really f/w processed food in general. He spends most of his time foraging and making his own foods from scratch, most processed foods make him sick

Ok ok ok dgs case 3 time wooo!!

Btw loving the sherlock Holmes openings to all the chapters. Cool

Also love ryuu and susatos little travelling outfits... he has a hat :)

Also also I'm not really one for period dramas so maybe this is a common thing but I like how colourful it makes London look instead of the whole 'Ye Olde World Had No Colours Ever' like I went to London once and it didnt look as nice as this

The gavel slamming sfx whenver it says the date and place is so awful tho... grating on me ears

Office is cool as fuck tho. Gears moving yayyy totally not ominous bgm yayyyyy I feel like the gears r probs just an imposing set piece but itd b really cool if they were used in some way. Probably couldnt quite pull off a great mouse detective but like they're fairly tall I imagine there are Things up there that you cant quite reach that could be evidence in some case or another

He appears... I like his clock gimmick a lot but mael stronghart is a bit of a pisser of a name. I'm gonna keep calling him hart vortex because vortex is cool

'We're never happier than when we're standing around doing nothing' SO TRUE RYUU KING!!!!!

Birds in the bg... so that's what's on the gears theres a bunch of birds nests. :)

We have asougis arm band now.... :( waaaaa

I love susatos little encyclopedia so muchhhh I've said it before but we need to get her wikipedia. I know that considering game 2 things its popular hc that she becomes a lawyer later in life but I think she would really really enjoy herself as an encyclopedist or a librarian

'Theres something soothing about the clocks precise rhythm' ok well that's not a particularly autistic sentiment but I'm saying it is. Ryuu autist for life!!!

'We spearhead every revolutionary new technology in the world here in London' sure jan

'The sun will never set on our great empire' DECOLONISATION BEAM ATTACK!!!!!!!! If I see the end of the British empire in my life I will be a very happy man indeed

Vortex asking if ryuu is willing to commit to everything asougi planned... ominous

'If you get this man found innocent I'll let you be a lawyer' unsuspicious! Let's go for it <3

'If theres no defense then the defendant will get the max punishment automatically' surely that's not how that works

Omg I can ask susato what to do... yessss shes an assistant proper!!!!

Oh I was expecting the old bailey to be a bit more grand. Looks a bit piss

NOT THE TOP OF THE MORNING TO YA 😭😭😭😭😭 and the written Irish accent...

Tho given what I know of megundal the fact that he Does have such a noticeable accent is a bit of character... like hes so much dressed to the nines and the man with the money that youd think he would have ditched the Irish accent. When does dgs happen again? After the famine, before the rising? Youd imagine hed give up either the accent or the posh aesthetic given how badly they clash - outfit prevents him from fitting in with 'fellow people down on their luck', accent prevents him from appearing entirely affluent
