Oh man!!!

I do love me the Tragedy of the Twins and the unsympathetic tragedy of Kenzo becoming the monster that once abused him. Delicious stuff I tell you--I'm really happy that so far I haven't gotten anyone accusing me of trying to make Kenzo sympathetic by acknowledging the cycle of abuse and that Kenzo was, himself, a victim. That doesn't excuse ANYTHING he did, ofc.

Yeah when I was developing him, I wanted to make sure people saw Kenzo as a monster but never associate him with one of the "bad" disorders. I also don't want to make him sympathetic, either, by dwelling on his backstory and what made him into the monster we love to hate.

I never plan on getting married (AROACE FTW) so I luckily don't have to worry about that. I totally get it though, it REALLY sucks that the government is so against disabled people... I think there shouldn't be discrimination against disabled people who are married like that's the weirdest thing. So like is the Government expecting the partner to pay for everything??? In this economy??? In this day and age? Damn what a backwards mindset.

I'm jealous you got out of your wheelchair though I am still struggling with my back problems orz But I'm glad you got better, even if you're not sure how! Still, it might be worth reconsidering disability benefits. Even if one day you find someone and get married, it might be worth getting them asap if you believe you can't work. Even temporary assistance is still assistance.

I couldn't tell you who my first soulbound was because I had so many "imaginary friends" as a kid it's unreal nfsknfjkds

Oh nice! Thank you for that information, it's very helpful! :D IT sounds like a whole lot to deal with though. Still, good information to keep in mind!

Oh man, I bet--though tbh I actually don't think Junko has ASPD. Not in the sense that you might be thinking of--because she doesn't actually seem to disregard the feelings and safety of others. In fact, it's the fact she does care about other people that drives her despair, since she's literally performing the greatest acts of self harm and sabotage due to her over-analytical brain making the world around her so boring that she can't feel anything except the pain of self loathing and despair. Honestly when you realize she is self harming (trying to make herself feel Despair (AKA Anything) to be free of the boredom) she becomes more of a cautionary tale of how hyper intelligence can lead to extreme self destruction--and maybe about how the world failed a literal genius where, had the world not failed to help her, she could have brought a golden era of humanity to the world. But I might be getting to analytical here LMAO

Anyway I mentioned before that I can kind of relate to Junko now, and that's via my ADHD. So naturally I'm giving her the most Severe Case of ADHD known to man. (I don't like giving my villains the "bad" disorders so even Junko cannot be given this in my stories fdjklgndfkgjs)

I actually had a little joke about that when the Despair Mascot! Kokichi stuff was a thing, where there was a joke an anon made about Mikan suggesting Kokichi had ADHD and Junko realizing that SHE had ADHD and wanting to be on the strongest dose. Then she's pacified because her brain can finally calm TF down.

@kindlyre

Okay I'm VERY curious as to what mental illness you're writing Rantaro to have because it seems to be one of those stigmatized ones and I'm v curious???
