Friendly reminder that it's okay to stim.

It's okay to feel uncomfortable or overwhelmed and need to stim in public.

It's okay if you're really bored and antsy and need to stim in public.

It's okay if you need to excuse yourself and go stim alone for a couple of minutes.

It's okay if you can't sit still at all and you're constantly moving.

It's okay if your stims are "loud" and (or) "annoying" to other people.

It's okay if you don't stim like neurotypical people.

It's okay if you don't stim like other neurodivergent people.

It's okay to stim in the way that helps you regulate yourself.

Counting by 12s on my fingers

Back in 2012, I watched this video on base 12 math (eye contact, proper closed captions in English, under 10 minutes). At the very end, it was pointed out that you can count to 12 on your fingers, if you count each finger joint, instead of your whole fingers, while using your thumb as a pointer.

And I've been counting that way ever since. Not only does has it made calculating converting a third to a quarter in a recipe more intuitive (and counting out minutes and seconds easier if I'm timing things), it's also become a comforting hand/finger fidget.

(Personally, I start with 1 at the base of the index finger, and end with 12 at the tip of the pinky; I've also seen it illustrated the other way around).

But the other night, as I was waiting to fall asleep, I was thinking about how most ways of tallying things on paper (by drawing lines) is based on groups of 5... And I got to wondering if there were a way to tally by 12s, and how to arrange quickly drawn lines that are easy to read at a glance...

Haven't decided if there is, yet. But if you're wondering what idle thought games I've been playing lately, that's it.

Renga HCs & more

-Langa has a necklace from Reki with the infinity symbol and Reki has a bracelet with the same. -Langa likes to fidget with it as he goes about his day and so does Reki.

-Langa noticed Reki always ruining his hoodie strings and gifted Reki a chewable fidget necklace.

-Reki tends to fidget with Langa’s things- including his watch at lunch. Langa just finds it amusing and funny.

-Autistic Langa & Audhd or Adhd Reki

Impulsive oneshot kinda:

“Just a few words”

One day Langa stares intensely at Reki’s headband with curiosity, wanting to touch it. Reki knows he wants something just doesn’t know what. So, he has them stop their skating a moment to inquire. Langa replies in his quiet and usual tone, “I want to fidget with you.” Then, looks up from the skateboard. Reki’s face blooms red, “I-I mean if.. you’re sure?” He rubs his neck a bit in embarrassment. ‘Does he mean like play with my hair or fingers?’

Langa’s head tilts. ‘Reki always fidgets with my stuff, what’s different now? Is my Japanese incorrect? How could Reki misunderstand? And why is he so red?’

“I’m sure.” Langa replies, looking Reki in the eye, seeming to long for the headband like a lost puppy.

For Reki, who thought differently of Langa’s words, he blushes furiously before huffing, “Jeez, you’re so.. embarrassing about this stuff, dude.” Then shakes his head. Langa should just ask if he wanted to hug. Did he want to cuddle or something? Why is Reki the one who has to guess? “Fine. I guess.” He says, although his voice comes out far too soft.

Langa’s eyes light up as he steps forward. Reki lifts open his arms and closes his eyes… only to find that Langa while having stepped closer, now has his hands around Reki’s headband. ‘He isn’t..’

Reki is utterly embarrassed at this point and decides to push it off like he was stretching. But before he can do so, Langa wraps his arms around Reki in return, chuckling at the yawn Reki had let out.

“You’re so cute.” Langa says quietly. Reki let’s his head fall on to Langa’s chest to hide his blushing. “S-shut up.” This only furthers Langa in his quieted laughs.

Langa feels the texture of the headband, taking note of it’s softened edges. The design is stitched with patchwork so utterly Reki that he can’t help but smile at. He then wraps it around his wrist, feeling perfectly snug. A part of him wants to see how Reki would look with the headband pushing all the hair from his face but he doesn’t want to overwhelm Reki. ‘God. He’d be adorable.’

With Langa’s abrupt quietness, Reki ultimately get’s curious and looks up. To his surprise, Langa is smiling. A smile that feels like a rare bliss or treasure, especially when he knows it’s because of him.

Reki shifts his head back down as Langa’s chin falls to rest on Reki. They sink into each other’s warmth and comfort, hearts pounding in their ears. Langa strokes a hand through Reki’s hair, playing with it and feeling enamored by the curls and their softness.

“Thanks” Langa says softly while he looks down. Reki just nods, hiding his head in the other’s shoulder as they hug.

They stay like that a while, eventually sitting down next to each other before treating themselves to food. Reki demands Langa be more clear with his words in the future- which only serves to confuse Langa since he thought he’d been perfectly clear.

Reki just sighs, flicking Langa and calling him a hopeless idiot before going back to eat. As Reki stares off, Langa can’t help the small smile that graces his lips. He never knew he could create such warmth from a few words, let alone find himself living life this way.. happy and it was all because of Reki.
