Hobie x ARFID Reader

Warnings: emetophobia (if you squint), eating disorder

He's the type of person who'll sit with you as you eat even if you're a slow eater

"Didn't you say you had to go to HQ today?"

"Miguel and those other wankers can wait. I have more important things to do here."

People have stopped complaining about you eating slow ever since you've started hanging out with Hobie.

(He probably lectured them about eating quickly is a part of the grind mindset and how capitalism has once again plagued society so much that we can't even eat meals without thinking about how to best optimize our time. In this essay I wil-)

Please don't hoard your food, your personal food disposal is literally right there

He will not let you force food down either refer back to the above point.

Never explicitly states anything about the excessive amount of Pepto Bismol you own. However he does distract you away from it after each meal if it's a habit you're trying to break.

He also finds creative ways to motivate you to eat

"Did you really just put on a puppet show with a sock figure singing about how you can't fight the power on an empty stomach?"

"Yeah."

"Siiiigh ig I gotta go eat now. Like Shobie the sockman said I can't fight against my oppressors if my stomach is giving me away."

Learns how to prepare your safe foods

He's a fairly decent cook. But if he doesn't know how to cook something he'll experiment before giving you the final product.

Also he doesn't say anything if you ask for foods to be finely chopped or cut because of excessive fear of choking.

If there's something he can do that'll make eating easier for you he'll do it no matter how strange it might seem.

He will distract you as you eat if that helps you. Probably goes on and tells a story from his day or something new about one of his interests.

He doesn't get upset or irritated if your safe foods change up

You looked down at the plate of food set down before you. There was nothing wrong with it. It was actually a food you'd grown comfortable eating for the past couple of weeks yet the sight of it now made your stomach turn.

"I can't do it. I'm sorry."

"What you apologizing for? You didn't do anything wrong."

"I know." Your vision began to blur. "But I thought this one would've stuck around for a bit longer."

"Don't worry about it I've got some safe foods in the fridge for you as backup."

He will find ways to sneak foods with the vitamins you need into your food if you ask him to.

He tells you he's proud of you for whatever you eat that day or if you try new foods.

"I'm proud of you for eating."

"Bie I'm only eating a child's portion of food."

"Oi. Don't put yourself down. Something is better than nothing."

(A/N: You just gotta love mourning over the foods that you can't eat anymore 🙂. Anyhow this wasn't as heavy as I thought it'd be. Actually got some heartfelt scenes in here. )

Homemade Pizza

(Jason Todd X Reader) This is a super self indulgent drabble because I have ARFID and love pizza but can’t eat it due to the sensory issues i have regarding slivers of tomato skin in the sauce.

Food related insecurities were always a struggle in the beginning of a relationship. The number of times they’d heard something along the lines of  ‘Wow! I pity any guy that wants to take you out on a date!’ while growing up, and the number of times it had rung true had really increased their anxiety and self-consciousness regarding the topic. It was a big part of their fear in the moment, commuting to Jason’s apartment while the sun had just begun to set. They knew he loved to cook, and though he had been very understanding when they had explained their eating disorder to him, they worried of when he would get tired of being compassionate, of when he would get tired of their differences, of when he would get tired of the burden of them. The fact that their eating routine was thrown off by the date hadn’t made them any less anxious either, and though they knew that it would’ve been alright for them to turn down the date, they didn’t want to. Jason was a busy man, and they didn’t want to miss out on an opportunity to spend time with him. So lost in their thoughts, time passed quickly, and the subway doors opened. His apartment was only a block or so from the subway, so it took little time to arrive at his doorstep. He answered their knocks almost immediately, swinging the door open and greeting them with a short kiss on the cheek, waving them in. The fear in their veins shot up when the smell of food wafted into their nostrils. Pizza, a food that they liked, but was never worth the suffering to eat. 

“Before you freak out.” He said. “I remembered what you told me about your ED, and how you really liked pepperoni pizza but couldn’t eat it because of the tomato skin, so I made the sauce myself and skinned all the tomatoes first, so that I could make sure there weren’t any skins in the sauce.” They turned to him stunned. Most people were somewhat sympathetic to their struggles, but that was the first time that anybody had actually gone out of their way for them. “But please don’t feel pressured to eat any of it! If we don’t then my family will be more than happy to reheat it later.” They turned their gaze away from him, and instead landed it on the table he had set. It was meant to mimic a vintage Italian restaurant. A red and white checkered tablecloth laid upon the semi-small circular rustic table he had moved to stand in front of his main window, with a candle lit in the center and a plate laid out on either end with napkins and wine glasses and the whole ensemble. The lights throughout his apartment had been dimmed, and soft Italian jazz was playing on a record player at the far end of the room. They could only imagine the look they had on their face, because of the concern written all across his when he called out to them softly. “Baby? Are you okay?” He questioned. “If this is too much, then I’ll put it all away and we can just watch some TV and cuddle instead.” That brought their attention back to him as a soft smile graced their face and they threw themselves into his arms. 

“No, please don’t put this all away. I love it, I was just surprised.” Leaning up and pressing a quick kiss to his cheek, they hurried over to the table and took a seat. He followed suit, and the two sat and sipped on their wine as they talked. The peace as temporarily interrupted when the oven timer went off and Jason got up to get the pizza. In the short time that he was gone, the anxiety had started to creep back up on them They trusted him, and his cooking skills, but that didn’t erase the fear that their eating difficulties would act up and, in their mind, ruin the date. Some of the anxiety subsided when he walked in with the pizza; it looked absolutely delicious, their only worry then was that looks could be deceiving. The rest of their fear melted away with the first bite. A surprised yet pleased muffled moan leaving their lips as their eyes fell shut, utterly enjoying the slice. 

“‘s that good?” Jason teased. Covering their mouth with their hand as they chewed, they responded with,

“I’d fuckin’ die for you, Jason, this is amazing!” 

“Not if I die for you, first.” He chuckled, partially glad that they didn’t get the joke yet. The dinner went by without much talking after that, save for a few short sentences. Neither of them minded much, though, the background music was calming and beautiful, the view just as much so. When they had finished eating, Jason refused to accept any help cleaning up, insisting that they were his guest, and that Alfred had taught him better than that. There was much more conversation during the clean-up than there was during dinner, though the mood hardly changed. Still serene and romantic like it was at the beginning of dinner, and it stayed like that even when they moved to the couch, cuddling with the TV on quietly in the background. 

“Jay?” The spoke, quietly so as to not shatter the atmosphere. 

“Yeah, Doll?” 

“Thank you for tonight, I’m not sure I could explain just how much it meant to me.” Their jaw felt funny moving as it rested on his shoulder, but not unpleasant.

“It wasn’t a big deal, I’m glad you liked it.” They scoffed lightly and lifted their head up, looking into his eyes so that he could see their emotions, and everything they felt that went beyond words. 

“Maybe it wasn’t a big deal to you, but it was the world to me. All my life, it’s seemed like however bothersome my eating disorder was to me, it was more of a burden to the people around me. It’s always felt like I’ve been a burden because of it. I can’t tell you how many friendships and relationships it’s ruined. Even when people were nice about it, it was just them doing their best to ignore it.” They spoke, wrapping their arms around his thick neck, lightly playing with the short stubbled buzz at the nape of his neck. “But you not only acknowledged it, you went out of your way to do something kind for me, in a way that I could enjoy.” A smile made its way onto their face as their eyes shone with unspilled tears. “I really like you, but even if we don’t work out in the long-term, which to be honest, I really hope we do, this will always be a gesture and a night that I’ll hold close to my heart. So don’t pretend like you didn’t do anything important, please. Because you did, more than I think you’ll ever really know.” His hands moved to rest on their waist, as he spoke. 

“You’re not a burden, Sweetheart, not to me.” He said, firmly, despite how quiet his words were. Their smile widened as they shifted forward, slanting their lips against his. Their arms tightening around him as his tightened around them.

i wanted to- b.floyd

a/n: intended for fem or male reader, so imagine what you like:)))))))))

Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a condition that causes you to limit the amount and type of food you eat. ARFID can cause you to lose interest in eating.

summary: your boyfriend cares about you. a lot.

pairing: bob floyd x ARFID reader

warnings: fluff, talk of ARFID

You shuffled around his kitchen, trying to be as silent as humanly possible. You scrawled a note on the whiteboard on his wall, telling him you love him and that you’re sorry you have to slip out, the usual necessity of having to have breakfast- a difficult task when you had ARFID. Though it had gotten better. You had around 30 safe foods, but only one safe breakfast food, porridge with honey. But it had to be made with a certain milk and it had to be your favourite brand of oats. You knew Bob hadn’t been at his apartment in weeks. He’d come home from deployment and you’d gone straight to his hometown to celebrate one of his cousins getting married.

It was 5:09am, and to be honest you were exhausted. You wanted to stay in bed with Bob and not have to drive back to your own apartment (your apartment that was a 30 minute drive away). To be perfectly honest, you wanted to live with Bob. His apartment was home for you- even though you’d only been officially dating for 6 months. You leaned against the counter, closing your tired eyes as you waited for your morning coffee to brew. You felt familiar hands rest on your waist, his chest against your back. You hummed softly as his warm hands explored beneath your shirt, never going too high. He was always the perfect gentleman. A smile spread across your face and he huffed. 

“Come back to bed,” he mumbled, his voice heavy with sleep and hoarse from not using it. His morning voice made you practically weak in the knees. “Please?” he added meekly.

“I have to eat,” You sighed. “But I wish I could.”

“I bought your breakfast stuff,” he yawned, and you turned around, your chests meeting. His eyes were still closed, his glasses were crooked, and his uncovered chest was radiating heat. You could almost cry at his gesture. None of your past boyfriends had really cared all that much about your condition, one going as far to say ‘get over it’. 

“You didn’t have to do that-”

“I know. Bagman and Rooster said I was whipped when I picked them up on the way home from base. But I wanted to,” his southern drawl was more prominent when he’d been around family, and you’d just spent the past weekend with his siblings, cousins, and parents. “Now come back to bed.”

“Let me pay you back-” You knew your specific products couldn’t have been cheap, they were hard to find, a specific brand of porridge oats and a local honey. 

“No,” He yawned, a lazily smile making its way to his lips. “You made me split the bill on our first date.”

You rolled your eyes, he always brings that up.

“Don’t roll your eyes,” he had finally opened his eyes. “Come back to bed.”

You chuckled into his shoulder, your tiredness taking over. “Don’t know if I can walk all the way back down the hall.”

Now it was his turn to chuckle, then he picked you up as you squealed, and placed you back on his bed. He got in after you and wrapped his arms around you as you curled into his side, your head slotting perfectly between his shoulder blade and neck. He smiled as you snored softly. 

He thought you were perfect. 

How did he ever get so lucky?

[carmenberzattosgf]

thinking of carmy with a reader who has arfid or just a picky eater...

as a picky eater this makes me feel seen. ( also @thecapricunt1616 and I were just talking about this the other day!)

In summary I think Carmen would struggle just a little bit with having a picky eater as a partner. I mean his whole world revolves around food, and usually interesting combinations of food.

He will make it his life mission to get you to like certain foods. He will get butt hurt if you don’t like his food, though. Like he’s a fragile guy what can I say?

It would take some time but he would learn to be okay with how picky you are because ultimately he can’t control it, and neither can you! He will find you some kind of comfort food and make it over and over again if that’s what you want him to do. I’m picturing him having a special dish just for you on the menu for when you come into the Bear.

[pjsk-writin]

hello amichen!!!

can I request pjsk boys with a reader who doesn't like veggies/ is a picky eater? (if that's okay then maybe a reader that has arfid?)

thank you!!

hihii !! and ofc, hope u like this !! <3

♡ ARFID - Akito Shinonome, Toya Aoyagi, Tsukasa Tenma and Rui Kamishiro x Reader

Akito:

The only food that Akito is really averse to is carrots, so he slightly understands why you don't like certain foods

He does what he can to help you out though, he knows that having problems with your food isn't the most pleasant thing

He really does enjoy taking care of you, so he gets you the foods you like and makes sure you're eating <3

If you do reach a point of losing weight, he tries to discreetly buy you a bunch of treats that he knows you like

"Here...It's the fifth time I've got you some this week? You should still eat it-"

Toya:

Toya also has issues with textures and such in his food, so he can understand where you're coming from

He definitely tries to learn about what kinds of textures you don't like, and is quick to find that he agrees with you

He would cook for you if he wasn't so bad at it, so instead he keeps track of the places that have your safe foods <3

He'll be quick to notice if you're reaching an unhealthy point, and usually makes sure to

"Did you eat today? Let's go to that restaurant you really like, it'll be on me."

Tsukasa:

Besides peppers, Tsukasa is usually the type of guy who will eat practically anything, so he's never been in your shoes

Having said that, he's very sympathetic towards your disorder, and does what he can to help you!

He absolutely teaches himself how to cook your safe foods, he loves how your face lights up every time <3

If you do get to the point where you're losing weight, he pours his all into cooking, making sure to take extra care of you

"My lovely co-star, here's a feast made to perfection for someone as lovely as you!"

Rui:

While Rui certainly has his only struggles with food he doesn't like (veggies), it's not quite the same as you

So, he understands why you avoid certain foods, but he still gets concerned anyway

He has a little notebook what foods you avoid and what foods you like, and asks you to update it whenever you please <3

He would never force you to eat, of course, but he does try to persuade you if he ever notices concerning changes in your health

"Dearest, I bought you your favorite. Shall we eat together? I know a perfect spot."

[bad268]

Idea!

Idk if I've said this here, but I'm autistic, and I kinda wanna write an autistic reader story. I'm thinking of doing something with ARFID (avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder) and someone helping reader try new foods.

would yall be interested in that?

[jwritestuff]

i am whole when i'm with you

cw: disordered eating is implied, nothing graphic. just general anxiety around food. lots of comfort. also small sh mention, just one piece of dialogue.

summary: you have anxiety, and you go to your brothers for comfort.

an: hiiii this is like.. incredibly personal and probably niche. i have emetophobia and arfid so this is usually how my anxiety shows itself. let me know if you like this! i've been writing self-indulgent stuff lately so.. just wanna be sure you guys are down for this. okay mwah

my stomach hurts. i'm hungry. i don't want to eat. i get up to get help.

i feel dizzy as i go down the stairs. i keep walking until i hear dean's voice. "hey, you okay?"

i don't feel like talking right now. at all. i shake my head and mumble "anxious." i find my way to the couch and sit next to my oldest brother. i curl up into his side. i wish i could stay here forever.

he rubs up and down my arm. "how come?" he knows me well. he knows talking about it helps. 

but, i still don't want to talk. i think he can tell, but i need to communicate what's going on.

"my stomach hurts n' i forgot to eat. now i'm nervous." i take a deep breath to calm my nerves. "i was gonna cut." dean hugs me into his side more.

"i can have sam get your water bottle and a snack. how's that sound?" i hear sam walk across the room. (i truthfully didn't even know he was here; i can't think clearly right now.) i nod. they both know exactly what i need at that moment.

i can feel the tears form in my eyes. it's been almost three years. why do i still flip out over something as small as a stomach ache? i am so fucking tired. i wish i could turn off my brain for a while and stay here with dean.

dean is like, a mind reader, (or he heard me sniffle, not sure which) and he knew i was about to cry.

"'m so tired." my voice is raspy. dean kisses my forehead. "i know baby, i know." he sighs and continues rubbing my arm. "me and sammy got you. we always will." he rests his chin atop my head.

and i'm a crybaby because that makes me cry more. i love them so much.

sam is also very quiet. i didn't hear him come downstairs, but when i took my head out of dean's chest, i see my safe food and my water bottle on the coffee table. dean presses my favorite stuffed animal into my arms. (his name is theodore) i take theodore and put my nose to his head. i love how he smells.

"wanna watch pokemon?" dean says this so quietly, like i'm a sleeping baby.

"yes please."

"we got you baby." sam says. he sits on my other side. i feel so safe.

eventually, i eat my snack and drink some water. i took my night time medicine, and i am 100% prepared to fall asleep right here. anxiety is so tiring.

i don't know if sam is awake, or dean, but i mutter a "thank you." to both of them. i'm not the best at showing my appreciation; they know that. but they also know i love them more than anything.

[spidey-bie]

I saw your hobie x ARFIDreader post and I really wanted to reblog it but idk why my brain wont let me without losing it so I saved it as a draft and I wanted you to know that it's incredible even tho I can't share it like you deserve

Awwww 🥰

That's so sweet of you to reach out to me. Thank you. I'm happy to hear my writing touched so many people.

Rise Donnie and ARFID

I saw a post about how hard it is to have a partner with ARFID, and I have always been told “i feel sorry for any guy that wants to take YOU on a date” about ARFID and that is deeply upsetting to me, so here is me projecting and saying that Rise Donnie has ARFID. (I wrote this on my phone in my notes app so if the quality is suckier than usual that’s why)

- Would be super supportive of a partner with ARFID, and would have a separate mini fridge/food basket for all your snacks (especially if you get paranoia about your safe foods being near unsafe foods)

- I hc that while he is capable of eating with a group of people, it is much more comfortable for him to eat alone, or with one other person, with each of them snacking/eating their own thing

- Would want him and his partner to both brush and floss before kissing after eating, he gets paranoid about remnants of food being left in his mouth

- Doesn’t like eating whole meals as much as he likes eating frequent snacks

- He is super territorial over his safe foods. Does not like when other people eat them, and after going hungry a night or two because his brothers (they didn’t realize how serious it was, obvi) ate all of his safe foods and there was only fear foods left, he decided to just hide his stash in his lab with multiple locks (like how he does for his Jupiter Jim comic)

- After his brothers realized how serious his food struggles are, they try to be respectful (semi-respectful. They still eat his food, but try to leave a few safe foods left for him)

- Mf does not trust people to prepare food for him easily, he very reluctantly trusts Mikey with it, but only because he taught Mikey how to make his foods how he likes them.

- I think he would be very specific with how the food was prepared (like stirring 30x clockwise, the placement of foods, etc)

- hates being called picky. Hates the fucking word picky

These are just some of my headcanons, if you have any struggles with food please feel free to add them!! I would love to see more

Jj x fem reader with AFRID its a type of eating disorder type thing.

Completely fine if you don't want to write xx

Sandwich

pairing: jennifer jareau x fem reader

category: fluff, hurt/comfort

warnings: eating disorder

word count: 800

summary: you suffer from arfid and your girlfriend helps you through it

I paced around the conference room with Spence while we tried to come up with the geographical profile. We had managed to narrow it down between ten miles but that was it. We couldn't have police patrol 10 square miles, there aren't enough troops. I could feel the anxiety radiating off of Spence which wasn't making anything better.

"Come on. You two take a break." I heard JJ's voice once the door opened and I knew it was going to be ok. "You've been at it for hours and I haven't seen any of you eat or take a break." She gave me a side eye and I looked at the ground.

Spence left the room, giving JJ and I the space. "So...how are you doing?" I asked her.

"Good. We're getting further in the case. How are you?"

"I'm ok."

"Have you eaten anything yet?"

"Um...no." She knew my struggles with eating and she understood them but she also looked out for me, kept me in a good place. She knew I was struggling right now and wanted to make sure I was staying healthy.

"Well then let's take a break, eat something?"

"JJ..." I let out a sigh and gripped the back of one of the chairs, feeling anxiety bubble in my stomach.

"How long has it been since you ate?"

"Just like...I don't know...3 days-"

"3 days-"

"But I had smoothies!"

"Ok but smoothies have no protein or fat. You need solid food too. Come on honey, let's get to a sandwich or something." I shook my head. "Y/n I'm not asking."

"Can you just give me a minute?" I gripped the chair even tighter.

"Yeah...yeah of course. Can I go get a sandwich or do you want me to stay with you?" I nodded.

"Stay."

"Ok. Do you want a hug?" I shook my head.

"It's just gonna...I'm gonna...what if I like choke or something or what if I get sick-"

"Shh, honey that's not gonna happen." Her voice softened as she reached for my hands. "The odds of all of that happening-"

"But it can still happen." I breathed out. "And I...when I was younger I was eating an onion ring and the onion got stuck in my throat and I almost died."

"Shh, I know. I know." She caressed my hands softly and slowly, trying to keep eye contact with me. "Just take a few deep breaths, calm down."

"I can't- can't I just make a smoothie-"

"My love you haven't had solid food in 3 days and you've lost weight-"

"But I didn't mean to!"

"I know you didn't mean to." She kept her voice soft. "And I'm not mad at you, I just want to be here for you."

"But I-"

"Shh. Just breathe. It's ok." She held my face in her hands and caressed my cheeks. "It's ok. I'm gonna go downstairs and get your sandwich and then I'll stay with you as you eat it, yeah?" I gave a reluctant nod and sat down.

She came back with a BLT, watching me carefully as I tried to get all the bad thoughts out of my head. "It's ok. If you do end up choking I'll be here the whole time." I gave her a small nod and took a small bite of the sandwich. I chewed it slowly, making sure that there was no choking hazard before swallowing it. JJ kept her hand on my back, rubbing it soothingly. "Just like that. Take it one bite at a time."

"One bite at a time?" I laughed softly and looked at her.

"Yes my love. One bite at a time." She moved closer to me, kissing my cheek. I took another small bite, feeling a little bit better. "There you go. See? It's not so hard is it." I shrugged and took another bite, still making sure to chew thoroughly.

"Thank you." I whispered, feeling my stomach thank me so I figured I should thank JJ.

"Of course baby. You know I'm always here for you. Now finish your sandwich, I'm not leaving until you do, ok?" I nodded.

"I'm gonna make you a smoothie when we get back home."

"Mm. Can I have a strawberry banana smoothie?"

"Of course. Those are my favorite too." She laughed and kissed my temple and before I knew it I had finished my sandwich. I took a deep breath, leaning back in my chair.

"You ok?" She reached for my hand instead.

"Yeah...yeah I'm good. Just hope I don't throw up." I joked weakly.

"You won't." She helped me stand up and then wrapped her arms around me. "I've gotta get back to work but call me or text me if you need anything."

"I will."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

TW: mentions of ED? HEY!! I haven’t done a request in a hot minute but could you perchance do a hurt/comfort fic of Spencer x m! Or gn! Reader where reader has issues with food (be it an eating disorder or arfid or something similar) perchance?

Hi! I hope you like it! here's the link!

I just wanted to say that I have my own struggles with food, which may have shaped the way I wrote this story. I know that everyone’s experiences are unique, and we all face different challenges and thought processes.

I hope this resonates with you in some way, though I understand if it’s not exactly what you were looking for.

Sending you lots of love! <3

I'm so extremely proud of you for trying your best each day.

And ik how scary an adult diagnosis is. I remember I didn't get my autism diagnosis til I was 17, and my mom didn't tell me til like the middle of last year, that back then I had also gotten an ADHD diagnosis and she just never bothered to tell me til I asked her if I could get diagnosed.

It fucks you up a LOT.

And I'm really thankful that someone such as you, understands and is so kind as to write this and post it as ik sometimes it preferred to keep it private for one's own really hard days. Since I've had friends tell me they've written pieces similar to this and never posted it.

So thank you, again, for the representation in your writing. It really does make me feel that much better.

💖💖💖💖💖

Thank you so much for your kind words, they mean a lot to me!

I've never seen anyone writing about a reader with ARFID so I decided to take the plunge and just do it. Hopefully it encourages other talented writers to do the same.

The feeling that we're not alone in this is so comforting ❤️

Idia ED HCs

as the title implies this is covering eating disorders so be cautious if sensitive to this. reader beware type deal, also game spoilers

ok Ive done this before actually but it was vague and I offered zero proof so I’m doing this correctly now. I covered Azul in that old post too and his own post will be coming soon as well. Lets get into Idia now.

To start: how this will be done and his ED I think he has. For card and homescreen lines I’m just going to quote them as I don’t want this bogged down with too many screenshots but I will show as many event and main game ones as I can instead for those.

Now what do I think he has? ARFID but specifically the Lack of Interest variant. For reference this is described by the Eating Recovery Center as showing little or zero interest in food. Which can cause forgetting to eat, low appetite or distracted at eating time, or even extreme “picky eating” which limits what you eat or how much.(note I am also pairing this with a linked dx hc of autism for him link to a short article about this)

Now with this specific HC it more so was picked because he isn’t aiming for a weight goal or focusing on a specific idea (ie clean eating for example) but his foods he will touch are safe + him admitting he forgets to eat. As self admitted in the cooking event.

He seems very sensory on what he picks. In his Student intro sheet he hates raw fish but loves candy. Which is then backed up with his dorm uniform line, “Oh hey, want a gummy worm? …I just love brightly- colored candy.” A Birthday Boy line, “When I was out shopping, Sam said he’d throw in a little extra for my birthday. H-he gave me free candy! What a top-tier guy.” Chef card talking about sensory issues, “Ugh,that slimy feeling when ground meat squelches between your fingers gives me the creeps!”

A line talking about the meat feeling again messing with his sensory issues.

As far as safe foods other than candy while he is picky on fruit he will eat it. In the Applepom event card he mentions buying dried fruit, “TA-DA! Here’s the dried fruit I bought at Kokko Market! I figured it’d be the perfect snack.” In the same event in chapter 2-2 he also states, “I only eat fruit if it’s canned or already sliced and peeled. But peeling this thing myself sounds like a chore…”

There is also his birthday interview about food,

“Thank you. So, what’s your favorite food? ” Idia , “…Snacks. They taste good, and are easy to eat while you’re gaming. Can you name a better combo? If I had to be more specific, I’d go with DIY candy kits, where you make candy sushi and such by mixing water into powder packets. It turns snacktime into a game! It’s easy to get totally absorbed, too. Whee hee hee. There’s something genuinely engaging about being able to change the shape and color yourself. It’s definitely not just for kids, okay?” I love this as a lore he stated because it fits into the idea of finding a way to introduce a food he would try: turn it into a game

Further sensory mentions with him hating raw fish in birthday boy, “Raw fish. It stinks, it’s lukewarm, it’s all slimy and clingy and sticky…”

In the same line from that card he actually talks further about how he feels about eating, “And who’s got time for food you need proper tableware to eat? That’s just a ton of pointless busywork for one lousy meal. Who cares how you get nutrients, as long as you get them? Just eat an energy bar with vitamins and minerals! Bam, EZ.”

This isn’t the only time he talks about wanting an easy way out of eating. In the chef card he described cooking as inefficient and mentions meal replacements. He did however seem open to at least try things if he could build basically a slowcooker that prepped the food along with cooking it.

As one more safe food- ramen seems to be okay. A chef card homescreen line states, “Weird. I was meant to be buying ingredients, but next thing you know I’ve got a new type of instant noodles in my hand. Guess I’ll add it to the collection.”

As a conclusion, I don’t think Idia would see this as a disorder. While his family is stated by him to be concerned including Ortho-

We can see his family has concerns that he knows of but I do not think he sees it as a literal disorder. He is in online gaming circles and really limited diets aren’t uncommon in them so they could also be normalized in his eyes. Along with being so isolated his whole life it isn’t far fetched to think he saw this as normal for a while as is. But I do also think he doesn’t want to be like this. He did, even if just for the credits, join the class and did try his best. He looked upset about Ortho being worried. He is one I don’t think he’ll eat everything under the sun even with the top of the line doctors. But I do think he will eventually work through and with accommodating himself find a few things he can handle and maybe even semi-enjoy.

ending notes: if i missed anything he said lemme know so i can edit/add. hopefully I made sense though thanks for reading my silly thing + reposted from my old account so I can link these HCs together I’m making
