any fic recs for like... disability aus? disabled characters? like that one epilepsy marinette fic.

Sure! I'm gonna have some incomplete fics in this one as well, since there just aren't a ton of them, and I think most of them are decently satisfying even when they ARE incomplete.

balancing act by fictionalinfinity

“Besides, being Ladybug always came first. It came before school, friends, and sometimes even family. Now it had to come before her health. Marinette had a duty to Paris. She wouldn’t let them down.” Or, being both Ladybug and the Guardian starts to take its toll on Marinette. - the epilepsy au literally no one asked for

Love at Last Sight by ClaraOswald16

The final battle against Monarch has arrived, but things do not go as planned for our favorite superheroes. The battle leaves Marinette blind. Marinette and Adrien must come to terms with their new realities, but finding a new normal turns out to be harder than expected. This is a story of love, loss, and finding strength in each other.

Lows and Highs (Of Adrien Agreste) by Blackcats_Butterflies

Adrien Agreste- Teenage supermodel, son of Gabriel Agreste, hero of Paris... Type One Diabetic. When Adrien is diagnosed with a chronic illness, he goes through the mental struggles of dealing with this new life. Nothing will ever be the same again, and if anyone were to find out, he'd be humiliated. The world would find him repulsing. Who would want to love someone who was constantly giving themselves shots? Marinette would. (Based off my real life, when I was diagnosed at 13 years old.) ***There's a prequel in part 1 of this series which is Adrien's diagnosis!! Can be read as stand alones.*** TW: Mentions of drugs (no one does them) and the following stuff that will appear in chapters: - Needles - Blood - Paralysis - Seizures - Fainting

A Little Fall of Rain by Druwho

Unable to transform in time, Marinette sacrifices her life to save Adrien from an assassin. With the help of the Kwamis, Adrien is able to bring her back to life, but it comes at a price. One that Adrien alone must pay. Now, Adrien is forced to keep even more secrets. The fact that Marinette is alive and that she has been his Lady all long. More than ever, they must defeat Hawkmoth. Only then can Marinette return to her life.

The disability in this one is temporary, but it's still significant, and coping with it makes up a decent amount of the fic. Plus it's just plain a good story.

Sadame (さだめ) by @xhanisai

Bittersweetly, he wished that he was normal. That he could just say what was on his mind and converse with everyone around with ease and not be treated as if he was made of glass that was ready to shatter at any moment. That he could laugh properly whenever Ladybug made one of her silly faces at an annoying Akuma and be able to tell her to her face how much he truly loved her. That he would do anything for her. Until then, he wouldn’t let anything stop him from expressing himself and treating his loved ones the way he wanted to treat them to the best of his abilities. (The shock and anguish upon the disappearance of his beloved mother was so strong, it took away Adrien's ability to speak at ten-years-old. As if losing his means to communicate wasn't bad enough, he became practically invisible to his father after that event. Ultimately, Adrien believed he was broken and would only cause pain to anyone who came close but that all changed when he found the Miraculous of Destruction in his room and met Plagg, Nino, Alya, Marinette and...Ladybug. Soon he began to see the light again.)

see a world so beautiful and strange (spinning off somewhere) by @that-was-anticlimactic

“Why? Why are you suppressing?” “Because I can't tic,” Alya whispered, fingernails digging into the skin on her arm. “I know Tourette’s isn’t exactly uncommon, but it’s part of my identity as Alya Césaire. It can’t be a part of Rena Rouge, too. Someone could figure out who I am and then…” And then she’d have to give up the coolest thing that’s ever happened to her, give up living her dreams. [or, alya suppresses as rena rogue in order to protect her identity, but neither ladybug nor trixx will let her hurt herself like that]

I love how this fic goes into some of Alya's thoughts and insecurities about having Tourette's, how the general public doesn't understand, and then lets her receive comfort and validation afterwards. It's just... really nice.

I just wanted to say, i’ve read shatterproof so many times, and even with how many times I’ve read through some of those fic’s they never get old! I don’t really deal with any of the issues that they do, but I most definitely relate to some of their struggles, and it’s really nice seeing all of the representation you work so hard to include and research about. If I could ask a tiny thing, though, sometime, would you be able to write more four and twilight interacting? Those two are my favorites, and would love to see more of them! 💙💜❤️💚🖤

You sent this about a month ago, and I immediately started on a fun fic, because hey, ask me to do Twilight and Four?? Pull my leg, why don't you. XD My writing juice went down this past month, so it took me a while to finish, but I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for sending me a message! I'm really glad that Shatterproof manages to be what it is. :)

11.3k words! Summary:

"Hey, Four!” Twilight calls, dropping his hand and his phone to the bed. “What?” Four yells back from the opposite side of the apartment they share. “Wanna go on a hike?”

anyone with cfs?

I'm assuming this means chronic fatiuge syndrome and boy do I have IDEAS!!!!

Okay so I was originally going to do Bdubs but I realized Xisuma gives off the same vibes as my friend with CFS

so here we go!!

Xisuma

General Lore:

drawing from some of my favorite aus where Xisuma is a very exasperated manager/owner of a store (my favorite it coffee shops) but personally I think he would absolutley own a craftstore

is Cleo's fabric supplier

thinks his employees are hilarious but is trying so hard to be the Big Boss Manager Man and serious (he is failing)

loves doing table flower arrangments with fake flowers (it's his guilty pleasure)

actually used to work in a flower shop

loves cosplay and spends so much of his money on building cosplays

CFS Lore:

mans big sleepy

constant headaches or brain fog, no in between

he has sticky notes EVERYWHERE that remind him of things that he doesn't want to forget

uses a wheelchair and decorates it for every cosplay he does

International Internet Day & National Cat Day & National Hermit Day

Person A was in a job where they could work from home if they so wished, and when they get cursed by a client into the form of a cat, their supervisor, instead of giving them medical leave, suggests they simply work from home. Person B is a personal assistant they acquire through their insurance to help navigate with their new ‘disability’.

zumai disability au/airbender au

Okay so there's this fic called Scarlet and Black <- ff dot net link, written by Vathara. VERY good one-shot, basically exploring an AU where, following the Agni Kai against his father, Zuko eventually lost his sight entirely.

However, he managed to learn how to use firebending as an extension of his senses-- similar to how Toph uses earthbending-- only he reads heat signatures and currents on the air. Add in awareness of sounds, scents, and touch, and your usual level of Zuko determination (ie off the charts), and he is dead-set on keeping this fact a secret from outsides. Uncle Iroh is, as in all AUs, Zuko's secret-keeper and counselor.

So, with Iroh's help, Zuko is able to keep his blindness secret from all the cast, except perhaps for Aang. Even Azula doesn't cotton on.

(under the cut: taking this idea, rolling with it, and making it Zumai with a side of Secret Airbender.)

Everything changes at the Crossroads of Destiny episode. Iroh is imprisoned and Zuko is restored to his place as Crown Prince. Now he has to hide his disability under even greater scrutiny than ever before.

And he meets Mai again. A lot has changed (and he will never see her face again), but still, they recognize each other. They know each other.

There is tension between them. Azula is transparently working to set them up. Ty Lee thinks they're adorable.

But there's something else about Mai, something he hadn't noticed in the past. Maybe he wouldn't even realize it now, except that he's had a lot (a lot) of experience with someone else. Someone blessed with agility, with a light tread, someone sensitive to the tiniest air current.

He recognized it in the Avatar, and he recognizes it in Mai.

Around the episode The Beach, Mai and Zuko end up having an argument on Ember Island. A divergent point from canon: this argument is private.

He refuses to open up to her, and she wants to know why he can't trust her. He says there is no one he CAN trust. Mai says, in a pique of frustration, "Zuko, I know you're blind."

He's stunned. How did she know?

It turns out, Mai figured it out early on. And she's been covering for Zuko, helping him in little ways so that no one else catches on. So that Azula and Ozai don't realize the truth.

Zuko doesn't know what to say. He can only return a secret for a secret, “And I know you're an airbender."

Turning-point-in-the-relationship time. What happens next, I don't know, but I think there is angst and, at some point, making out. To quote one of my favorite movies, "I don't know, it's a mystery."

New fic!

>>>Showing Signs of Love<<<

We learn Laudna's gold ear cuffs are more than just beautiful pieces of jewelry as she remembers the early days of her and Imogen's relationship in loosely recounting the trauma she experienced at the hands of the Briarwoods to her and sharing the healing that she's experienced since that time, culminating in an expression of unique love languages between these two sorceresses.

This is the result of my hyperfixation on that Tiktok of the HoH Laudna and Imogen signing out the kiss scene and my brain couldn’t stop obsessing over an AU where Laudna had some form of auditory processing disorder/disability and she and Imogen pick up Sign Language throughout their adventures. Just a little thing thats purely self-serving and for absolutely no one else by myself but feel free to give it a gander if you like and if you do well hey thanks for reading!

Four Swords Disability AU

Shadow leaned against the back of the sofa, idly watching Vio read a thick book on what looked like math. "Does Green seem… off to you?" He asked. Vio paused, hand hovering over the next page before he picked up a scrap of paper and carefully wedged it in the book to mark his place. "What do you mean by that?" "Since his injury. Has he seemed off to you?"

[zarvasace]

Comics are not my strong suit 😅

Anyway here’s a scene of dazzling diamond danger, an installment of Shatterproof from several months ago!
