#i live for autistic zane

[will0wwill]

Welcome, fellow ninjago enyojers.

Finally decided to post something here, and what's better then Echo/Mr.E? First one is before my girlfriend tips and second after. I hate colors with passion but i want to (and need to) use them so bad.

If this account don't help me draw more ninjago and using colors... i'm doomed. As person who is picky about anything they draw i can't stop looking at this nose fheuyrnv4t y7ntveu IT'S TOO GOOD FOR ME.

Propablly next thing i will draw will be my second wife Pixal whom i find expecially hard to draw, or little zangst comic from the Dragon Rising (give my boy proper treatment and stop using him as freaky walking wikipedia!!!).

To the next post... i hope :>

[rodgerrodger]

shout out to op of the phee/tech & pixal/zane post cause now I can't stop thinking about the parallels between Tech and Zane deaths like

both of their initial plans failed. For Zane and the ninja it was in using the pill on the Overlord don't ask sjdbjsjs For Tech and the Bad Batch it was in placing a tracker on Hemlock's ship. Both plans failing due to another's interference.

They then had only one option, an act of self sacrifice for the sake of their loved ones well in Zane's case for the sake of the city as well but we're ignoring that bit for rn. Zane dies. His loved ones grieved. But he is able to return and continue on. Tech dies. His loved ones grieve. There's a chance that he, like Zane, will be able to return and continue on.

so yea, very similar deaths. both causing me emotional distress :)

[enavstars]

May you bliss us with your angst ninja headcanons?

mainly kai pls

Sorry for the delay. You asked mostly for Kai's so I delivered. If anyone wants more hcs about the others I can work on it some time in the future (I also have more of Kai).

Now the hcs:

• All the ninja have PTSD from everything they’ve been through

• And abandonment issues

• Cole has an eating disorder and eats when he’s stressed, this is one of the reasons he is very insecure of his weight. People online poke at him for it

• Jay's terrified of losing his loved ones again because of him. That is another reason why he went absolutely crazy post Seabound, as he thinks it was his fault Nya had to resort to sacrificing herself

• He used to be bullied for living in a junkyard before becoming a ninja and that's why he was ashamed of it

• Zane always shoves down everything wrong that happens to him (e.g being the Ice Emperor for way too long to be ok about it) because he puts the team and their needs first.

• Nya has nightmares from the time she died in skybound but doesn't tell anyone.

• She had to keep her work and love life secret from her brother for fear that he would shut her down to protect her. Her fear persisted well into s1 and that's why she felt she had to hide Samurai X even from Kai

• Lloyd still admires his uncle despite his obsession with the green ninja (and all the neglect that came with it) because he's the only relative that actually took him in

• All of the ninja have at some point hidden an injury at least once. But Kai and Nya are the ones that do it more often (Nya specially when she was samurai X), and know how to treat mild wounds because of it.

• Kai and Nya do physical activities when they’re stressed or have emotions they don’t want to process. They can do their thing like Kai working in the forge and Nya doing mechanics but they usually train, however they can go on for hours (Kai has passed out a few times)

• Kai and Zane have a very poor sense of self. Zane’s comes from him not valuing his life and thinking he’s expendable since he can be rebuilt, ignoring all the trauma that comes from getting severely hurt or “dying”. Kai has problems seeing his worth as a human being because he’s never lived for himself; everything he does is for someone else and so he thinks his value resides in what he can do for other people. 

• Kai is terrified of the idea of being alone, it’s his worst fear.

• He has THE WORST coping mechanisms and Zane is confused on how his body was able to go through all of them (Alcoholism, illegal fights, smoking…)

• Kai is an insomniac, he barely sleeps most nights and instead just waits until he passes out (He has very deep eyebags because of it but hides them with make up, covering his freckles too). He sometimes bumps into some other ninja at night since they all have fucked up sleep schedules. 

• Lloyd also has a lot of problems sleeping because of nightmares and goes to Kai or Nya’s room where he feels safer (mostly into Kai’s). Sometimes they stay up at night chilling or they try to sleep. In those cases the nights with Lloyd are the ones where Kai sleeps the most because he feels safer too.

• Kai has chronic depression because of his fucked up childhood

• Lloyd thought he had depression too for a while but it turned out to be autistic burnout because of the stress of being the green ninja. But he can’t properly rest or heal from the burnout so he’s exhausted most of the time.

• When he’s stressed Kai forgets to eat and can go days with very little food because he’s used to it from being poor in his childhood.

• Genuinely forgot what it feels like to be a kid and have no responsibilities so it’s his personal mission to not let that happen to Lloyd. Kai would be devastated if Lloyd ended up like him.

• Kai sometimes feels insecure about his face scars and contemplates hiding them with make up.

• Kai’s touch starved but terrified of letting people in.

• He hides his negative emotions as anger and when the others try to reach out to him he pushes them away by getting angry at them until it's mutual and they leave him alone.

• Never told the others about what he did after Zane’s “death”. He fixed himself up, alone.

When I was in the psych ward last November, I met this kid called rae- they were a year or two younger than me, closed off, trans and autistic, so of course me being me I instantly decided that they're my new little brother. I did my best to keep them safe and happy throughout my whole stay, but I was only there for a week and I don't think they remembered my number. I haven't gotten any contact from them at all. I am so fucking worried about them and then I saw them yesterday at a concert and I didn't approach them because I wanted to make sure it was them. Next time I went down to check if they were there, whoever it was was gone. My worst fear is that they're dead and I could have prevented it. Anyways, if you see this, please reblog is. If you live in the PNW and know someone called rae, harry or raelynn (can't remember how many Ns) or someone who used to go by those names and is around 13 or 14, please ask them if they went to the kitsap mental hospital. If they did, let them know that I'm proud of them and I hope they're okay. Give them my tumblr if you want, or dm me for my secondary email if they want to contact me. They know me as Zane, not sunny (zane is my actual real person name so most people do). Sorry for the block of text I've just been so worried about them lately and I need to know if they're okay, even if they don't want to talk to me.

Thanks. I really, really appreciate any reblogs, just in case it reaches them or someone who knows them.

[reveseke]

out of context can i talk about fugidove for a second. i love how we're introduced to a character that thinks they're a big bad villain, and instead are just unknown and he's kinda disappointed but still continues like he had actually done something bad. i also love how he's designed to be a literal bird and i wholeheartedly think he might be autistic and have a special interest in doves and pigeons in general and also with villains & criminals. he's using the coos as a vocal stim and the ""wing"" flapping as a stim to regulate himself bc the feathers are overstimulating him same with the mask sometimes and he knows enough about the villains in kryptarium to info dump to others. :3 (i also think he might get exploited at some point due to the info dumping whether that would be by other villains, the police or the ninja (possibly ronin as well?))

i also love how he has an unnamed brother who's supportive of him (at least what i gathered of the first interaction in prime empire when he got his screen time) and his life decisions literally quoting his coos to PIXAL and Zane lol. also going to Ronin they would make a hilarious duo (and do) and that's based on like three time interactions they had.

However i'm still quite curious over Fugidove's & his brother's backstory and what they're lives were like ebofrehand. i read that it was suspected he doesn't have a good relationship with his mother from the wiki? also he was originally supposed to be an owl which makes it hilarious to me that he ended up being a dove. (going from a powerful avian predators to a domesticated yet hate-loved swarming city birds that are both really really pretty birds.)

-fav animal is seals bc they so silly, also one my most fav youtubers, leamon puppy has her main as a seal, think that’s where I first started loving seals so much but idk XDDD

-I absolutely love vintage vids, just something so interesting about them to me! I love animes from the 90s-2010s most, but my most FAVORITE anime genre is magical girls!

-My first magical series was probably Glitter Force (SMILE PRECURE DUB YALL), but then Sailor Moon caught my eye and it is one my favs to this day! I finished Tokyo Mew Mew first though!

-Fav character is Pop Harukaze! She doesn’t get much of a role in Ojamajo Doremi as a Ojamajo, but something about her personality or something.. I am just living for it!

-Some other favs.. and yes I have a long list bc my autistic brain can’t choose favorites when they are so unique.. are Tsubomi/Cure Blossom, Komugi/Cure Wonderful, Ice Cube (BFDI+), Bubble (BFDI+), Ruby (BFDIA+), Gelatin (BFDIA+), Flower (BFDI+), Two (BFB), Firey (BFDI+), X (BFB), Teardrop (BFDI+), Four (BFB), Bloo (FHFIF), Mac (FHFIF), Aiko (Ojamajo Doremi), Onpu (Ojamajo Doremi), Chibi Chibi/Sailor Chibi Chibi, Saki/Cure Bloom, Minako/Sailor Venus, Erika/Cure Marine, Nagisa/Cure Black, Bu-Ling/Mew Pudding, Yayoi/Cure Peace, Love/Cure Peach, Hana-chan (Ojamajo Doremi), Pollun/Porun (Precure), Jewlulu (Pripara), Tweek (you know what), Oz (Canimals), Muffin (Bluey), Zane (Mystreet/Aphmau), Garroth (Mystreet/Aphmau), Kim (Mystreet/Aphmau), Ian (Mystreet/Aphmau) and Noi (MID/Aphmau)!

-“Do you have games on your phone” YES BUT LEAVE THEM IF ITS MY PHONE OR IPAD XDDD, especially my dear Animal Jam >:3

-I don’t really prefer to talk on email or text.. just tell me something on here or a social media platform like Youtube or Deviantart! I still use Gold the Ostrich as the user!

-Fav thing to say is “HOR HOR HOR HOR HOR” all i freaking know about fnaf is the movie with unnecessary add on lore 💀

-I don’t mind cussing, it’s just not a full on “lifestyle” for me

Now some rules! <3

-Everyone is allowed on my blog, it is mostly a tickle/random blog, but it’s quite decent so far!

-If you dislike this blog, please don’t say unnecessary stuff in your blogs, posts in any other media, etc if so. Just try ignoring this blog if possible.

-I can do commissions, especially of the following fandoms, but pls don’t get too upset if I don’t know a certain fandom, sometimes I forget to add a fandom to here.

- I am a minor, 13 in fact! So no sussy requests pleaseeee!! any other tickle requests are okay, even from fandoms I dont know, or your ocs! pls dont be mad if I don’t want to do your request! I will do anything that is sfw and accept lgbtq+ characters aswell!

-Might update this later, but this is good for now! Also this might stay as my only blog due to having no other ideas for blogs at the moment

[demisofphoenixdrop]

hello! could i hear about 5, 6, and 11 for the ask game?

ABSOLUTELY! Thank you, kind stranger :)

5 - Favorite Minor Character

My favorite minor characters? Oooh y'all-

I'm an Emmalyn lover fr. She's autistic. She's a sweetheart. I love her. I can and will kill for Cadenza. My beloved.

Btw big fan of my friend's crack ship of Emmalyn and Nana (y'all should ask me about that <3)

6 - Favorite Skins

Y'all remember Laurance's baby shower fit? That. Specifically after his hair got fluffy and they were rocking around Malachi's castle.

Also LOVE Aph's princess dress she got from the shadow knight lady in Pikoro(?)

Oh!! And everything Lucinda ever wore ever. I love her.

And Zoey's timeskip clothes! Basically everyone's timeskip clothes are gorgeous.

11 - rewrite, redesign, and/or reinterpretation

Okay- so-

I don't have a current rewrite. I do, however, have my own canon. It's mostly a playground for my ocs tbh.

That being said-

I love shadow knights. I love their mechanics and made my own rules for them.

So-

Shadow Knights are people who have had their soul ritually torn and removed. When someone is sacrificed on an alter to the shadow lord, they die. Their soul is extracted and half of it is given to the shadow lord for power. The other half is used to reanimate the dead. This grants them strength, speed, and some magic - a la The Shadow Knight Form.

Shadow knights complete their ritual by slaying either a loved one, someone they had an oath to, or just...so many innocent people. So, some SKs come back and off their spouses or their lords or like- burn an orphanage. Classic stuff, really. And bada bing bada boom, you got yourself a fully realized shadow knight!

Unrelated but another Danni Rewrite thing-

Brian betrays PD in my version because he is sick of living in a small town where nothing happens and he's living under his father's shadow. Also, Zane promised he could help Brian come into power.

Sometimes, though, Brian betrays PD because he's trying to woo one of the guards - my oc, Virgil - but they are more loyal to their village than Brian.

This, depending on the work I'm writing, leads to Virgil killing Brian and becoming a full shadow knight because they did truly love him, but they couldn't let him destroy the town that took them in.

I should really start drawing mcd again-

Keep up the asking!!

[mostdefinitelyahumanperson]

Lore Bits and HCs for my Magical Girls AU because I have Severe Brain Worsm

under the cut because it's a looooong boi (also not super organised or structured. oOpsie-daisy)

tl;dr : a ragtag found family (they're autistic and trans) find themselves battling space-cops with their newly acquired elemental powers because some autistic robot wanted to LARP as Its favorite anime

Zane

It's an alien-robot thingy from space

Like canon! Zane, It uses an hologram to appear human

Even by alien-robot standard, It's autistic

It became fascinated and enamoured with humans and Magical Girls so much that It revealed Itself to a few humans and gave them elemental abilities to create Its own Magical Girls team (that's what happens when the 'tism wins i guess)

It doesn't care that "Magical Girls" is supposed to be a gendered term 🤷🏼

Revealing Itself to humans is an alien crime, so now It's on the run

Most of the threats the Team fights is literally just alien-robot cops coming after It

Prefers It/Its pronouns, but because bigots use those maliciously, It only uses them with Its close friends. With everyone else, It prefers they/them slightly, but is mostly apathetic

Doesn't know how old It is in Earth year, but knows It's a young adult by Its specie's standard

AroAce, in a queerplatonic relationship with Cole and Kai

Very Tall (6'4'')

Dresses very conservatively, has an impressive collection of beige sweaters. Pants are always clean ??? (weirdo)

Cole

First human turned Magical. Earth powers.

When Zane first arrived on Earth, It was lost and confused, and Cole helped It. That's how they met, and that's why Zane decided Cole has "the pure heart of a Magical Girl"

He was houseless when he first met Zane, they now have an apartment together

He's the oldest (25) and as such fills the role of big brother to the group

Gives very good advice, such as "most crimes are morally correct" and "punch nazis always" and "never talk to cops"

A source of emotional stability for the others, great at co-regulation, very chill

Living happily and healthily, and caring for his community, is his greatest protest

Used to have a shit relationship with his dad, but now it's better, which puts him in the perfect position to support Kai, Nya, and Llorie, who all have shit relationships with their parents

Draws very well, designed all of his tattoos

Tattoos are : Earth Dragon (right arm), Energy Dragon, Water Dragon, Lightning Dragon, Fire Dragon, Ice Dragon (all on left arm), Mountain Landscape (back), White Lily, Music Notes (both over his heart), Piece of Cake (right buttcheek), Pink Crystals (both legs), Mouth with Tongue Out (right inner thigh), there's probably more but I'm out of ideas 🤷🏼

High as a kite 24/7. He uses it as medication for his chronic anxiety and sensory issues

Autistic <3

Special interests include : music history, music theory, just music in general actually, philosophy, baking, geology, and vintage technology, especially retro gaming. he's such a loser <3 (compliment)

Very good baker, makes insane edibles

Dresses punk, but musically prefers prog rock because he's a tasteless nerd (also listens to punk, of course, other types of rock, metal, and some subgenres of dubstep)

Yellow and purple shoelaces

Very Tall (6'2'')

Besties with Nya (mlm and wlw solidarity)

Romantically gay, asexual, transmasc

He was on testosterone for a bit, he no longer is as he is happy with the androgynous in-between he's reached. Doesn't want any kind of surgeries

In a queerplatonic relationship with Zane and a romantic relationship with Kai

Kai

Met Zane through Cole

Got turned Magical because Zane figured he'd enjoy it (It was correct)

Resident Himbo. Not a single thought behind those eyes.

Had started apprenticeship at father's forge, but relational conflicts made him leave

He has a horrible relationship with his father, and *very* mid with his mother

Pays for Nya's college education by participating in a shady underground fight ring, The Slither Pit. wins a lot, makes good money

Also has a successful OnlyFans

Has a bit of a drinking problem, but he's working on it (it used to be much worse)

Autistic and ADHD <3

Special interests include : footwear, hockey, hip-hop, metallurgy, glass art, kinesiology (I don't know, man, he's a sport nerd or whatever), hot peppers and hot sauce

Crop tops, tank tops that show off side boobs, booty shorts, grey sweatpants, high-waisted pants, fire prints, red, varsity jackets. Vaguely retro vibe, with the most 90's hair possible (too much hair gel and frosted tips)

24 years old

5'6''

Bisexual, demi-romantic, transmasc

On testosterone, has had top surgery

In a queerplatonic relationship with Zane and a romantic relationship with Cole

Nya

She got turned Magical because Kai, Jay and Cole nagged Zane non-stop until It agreed to Magic-ify her. Kai was ecstatic when she ended up getting water powers (he thinks sibling having opposite powers is Very Cool™️)

Her initial reaction to the turning was to be fucking pissed. That's her initial reaction to anything that stresses her out. Once she got over the weirdness of the whole some-alien-robot-guy-turned-me-into-a-fuckin-magical-girl thing, she ended up embracing it the most out of all of them, she's practically a vigilante at this point

She can fight even better than Kai, as martial art is one of her favorite way of releasing stress

Along with fixing cars

And since she has a LOT of stress to release, she's very good at both of those things

Special interests include : machines, especially cars (her main one), Journey to the West, Queer history, apes (her favorites are chimpanzees), She-Ra and He-Man

Autistic <3

High-masking. It's giving her autistic burnout, so she's been trying really hard to learn to unmask. Her friendship with Cole and relationship with Jay play a big role in her unmasking journey, as they show to her that she can be safe and secure while being herself

Burned out, but she won't let herself rest :/

She's a double-major, engineering and gender studies

She has a terrible relationship with her mother, and very mid relationship with her father

Besties with Cole (wlw and mlm solidarity)

They have similar taste in music (rock, prog, punk, metal). They like shopping for vinyls together

She's a coffee snob. Annoying about it.

Really sappy cheesy lovey-dovey when alone with Jay, but more friend-like when they're with other people (she doesn't like broadcasting her softer side to the world)

Cargo pants, muscle tees, tank tops, leather jackets, distressed denim, steel-toed boots, army surplus, navy blue, army green, black and grey, camo print

Hair up in ponytail or bun always, for sensory reasons

22 years old

5'8''

Butch bi-lesbian trans woman

On estrogen and progesterone, doesn't want surgeries

In a romantic relationship with Jay

Jay

Zane turned spark Magical because spark was infodumping about anime and how much spark'd love to have cool powers

Is the only one on the team who can fly, Zane has no idea how that happened

Cannot stand still, cannot shut up. the AuDHD is strong with this one

Special interests include Sci-Fi, especially space stuff, Starfarer being spark absolute favorite franchise, Magical Girls anime, anime in general actually, machines, video games, snakes, chicken husbandry, animation

Engineering major. That's how spark met Nya

Wanted to also major in theater, but a double-major was way to much for spark

Is in an improv team instead, as a hobie

Spark's a very talented drag performer. makes costumes sparkself. Drag-sona is a genderless alien named Zap, uses zap/zapself pronouns

Favorite music genre is ~computer noises~

Drinks way too much pink monster. Collects limited edition cans

Has not only accepted, but embraced the cringe 😌

A furry, made spark's fursuit. Cole drew the design

Dresses like if arcade carpeting and techno-unicorn had a baby

23 years old

5'4''

Panromantic, demi-sexual

In a romantic relationship with Nya

Llorie

She's the baby of the group. She got turned because Zane needed a "chosen one" for Its fantasy scenario

She's not *actually* chosen for anything, but she plays along because she's just happy to be here

Going through the Magical Girl transformation SHATTERED her egg

She graduated from Darkley's, an expensive boys-only boarding school. She's just starting college, majoring in (uuh, I don't know yet. Is veterinary a major ??? I've never been to school.)

When in her magical form, she has non-human features, such as golden horns, fangs, a green scaly tail, pointy ears, and claws

Dysphoria hoodie, always. She's had it since she was 10 (it's running small, but she's very emotionally attached to it)

Her parents are both stinking rich, and emotionally neglectful. Her dad is a weapon magnate, her mom's a world renowned archeologist (that's a plot hole. archeologists aren't usually stinking rich ??? whatev's). They stuck her in Darkley's and pretty much forgot about her. She hasn't come out to them yet, but she's out to her uncle Wu, who was the only family member actually there for her throughout her life

She's autistic <3

She met the group because Nya can spot a baby trans from a mile away, and immediately entered big sister mode. Nya's been helping her navigate the early stages of transition, offered her an understanding ear, gave her advice. They're practically sisters at this point. Naturally, the rest of the group also adopted Llorie.

Special interest include Starfarer (duh), plushies, fishes, especially sharks, mythology/legends/folklore/fairytales

*skirt goes spinny*

18 years old

5'2'' (she's itty-bitty)

She's still trying to figure out her sexuality, but she highly suspects she's on the aro and ace spectrums. Trans girl.

[shadowscommand]

Got any HCs for the boi Grinch (from mw19)

YES i wuv grinch. hes literally so fun i love his murky past and lore. so, Grinch:

artistic. he has a very realistic style and he tends to stick to drawing landscapes and animals in pencil just in a little notebook he keeps.

he drew his centipede tattoo. at least the initial sketch for it. he really likes tattoos ! if he didn't like being a marksman for Zane so much he might be a tattoo artist instead

i like in his bio where it suspects he had a western education. i think he's naturally very smart and inquisitive and when his parents noticed that they worked on getting him to school in America thinking that would be best (touchy subject for him. very mixed feelings)

because of this i can see him as one of the few 18 yr olds who join the us military to gain citizenship. again, mixed feelings, and he didn't stay in long. really really likes to live offgrid he's learned through the years. also really, really doesn't like not having any control over his own schedule

he never really gets close to anyone even though he's generally very friendly. he might learn a lot about someone but he doesn't offer much on himself. very guarded, but not mean about it.

he does not like to flash his intelligence except tactically. him and mace might debate but it largely revolves around grinch playing devils advocate bc he thinks it's funny. he does Not care much for politics or philosophy or anything truly he just wants to enjoy life

also autistic king

@ailesswhumptober Day Seventeen - Hypothermia

TWs: Child death, Minor Whumpee

Contents: Other than the TWs, not much. Z is autistic (though it's not mentioned) and selectively mute, so he only really communicates with T and C via noises. (I'm potentially autistic btw so this isn't meant to come across as offensive)

Characters are Zane (Aka Z, They/He/Cor, Around 10), T (She/Her, Around 13), and C (It/He/Whisker, Around 14), all refs can be found here.

Also posted on Ao3!

Mama has always told Zane not to go too far from home, especially not during winter. Zane wishes he had listened to Mama.

He didn’t expect the snowstorm to come in so quickly, Papa had told him it would be here in a few hours. Maybe it has been a few hours, Papa never lies.

Zane is shivering really bad. Mama and Papa are probably worried about him. He wants to go home, but he’s never been good with directions. He doesn’t know which way home is supposed to be.

His arms and legs feel stiff, making it hard to walk. The world is all white around him. He trips over nothing and lays there, crying quietly. He wants to go home.

Zane just wants to go home.

---

Zane is woken up by someone gently shaking him. He whimpers quietly, expecting Mama or Papa’s voice. Instead, there’s a rather bored-sounding voice instead. “This one might as well be dead,” The voice says, sighing. “We probably shouldn’t bother.”

There’s another voice, a slightly more upbeat one. “Some of them take a while to wake up,” Voice number two says with a sympathetic tone. “Besides, I think I heard them make a noise.”

Voice number one rolls him over, and he’s greeted with a burnt and scarred red cat. Zane cowers, trying to make himself seem smaller. Voice number two is another cat, nearly pitch black against the plain beige background of the area they’re in. “There we go,” He says, holding out a paw. “Hey, buddy. What’s your name?”

Zane just stares at him. The burnt cat stares at Zane with plus-shaped pupils. The one with ears that looks like those of a Lynx gives him a warm and friendly smile. “It’s okay, you don’t need to be scared.”

When Zane doesn’t respond, he continues talking. “Can you talk?”

“...Mhm,” He hums, then stops and shakes his head. “Mm-mm.”

“Well, that’s helpful,” The burnt cat deadpans. The Lynx shoots her a glare.

“Can you give me the first letter of your name? Just sounds is fine.”

Zane pauses for a moment before doing his best. “Zzz.”

“Z?” The Lynx asks, and he nods. “Well, Z, this is the Void. You, uh, live here now. I’m C, and my friend here is T.”

Z continues staring with a slightly tilted head. C gives him a small, slightly sad smile. “You... you died, Z. So now you’re here. This is, uh, like heaven, kinda.”

Oh. Oh. But he’s still here, so he can’t be dead.

He makes a discontent noise. T yawns. “You were brought back to life. Don’t ask us why, we don’t know. But we’re basically a family here, so you won’t be alone.”

Z doesn’t want to be alone, so he jolts forward and hugs close to C. After a few moments, C hugs back. “It’s gonna be okay, kid. I promise.”

[creative-anchorage]

[ID: tweets by Owl! at the Library @SketchesbyBoze:

People say, “Why were there no autistic people in the past?” but then you read biographies of famous scientists or poets who were deemed “eccentric” and “struggled socially” and “their families thought they were possessed by demons.”

Philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein shunned human interaction, preferring to eat alone in his room while reading a mystery novel. He could whistle numerous classical pieces from memory and had a habit of calling up his friends to apologize for random things. 

Hans Christian Anderson famously invited himself to Dickens’s house and accidentally overstayed his welcome by five weeks. As a child he was horribly bullied for his “effeminate” appearance, his loathing of sports and for having only female friends. 

Scientists only discovered autism within the last 80 years, and diagnoses have risen as more and more people have learned about the condition. In the process we’re finding that autistic people have been at the forefront of human achievement as scholars, inventors, and writers. 

Reply by HISTORY FALLS APART: (Attached is a gif from Pride and Prejudice (2005) with subtitles that read “Do you dance, Mr. Darcy?” “Not if I can help it.”)

Reply by James Wells: Autistic people were hanging out with the atheists, gay people, and left handed people of that time who also didn’t exist. 

Reply by ManorialMeerkat: Seriously, I’m pretty sure the “mad scientist” trope comes from autistic inventors and researchers, who were single minded, extremely intelligent, and often hermit-like in their lifestyle. Also, mildly unrelated, but, some people theorize that Confucius was autistic. 

Reply by Elisabeth N.: For most of history we lived in smaller groups.

[jacenbren]

I am in a brainrot mood so I am subjecting y’all to my shitty random Ninjago headcanons because this show is already pretty gay but not quite gay enough:

Dr. Julien was autistic and wanted a son who would understand and be like him so he programmed Zane to be autistic too

After being in close proximity to so many explosions (because of his constant lighting shit on fire) Kai has pretty bad hearing loss

Nya made him special hearing aids because of this but Kai and most of the team are fluent in sign language

Jay has ADHD. I need not elaborate

Mans has so many stim toys its insane and he occasionally makes his own out of shit he has lying around

Speaking of Jay he has a lot of Lichtenberg scarring on his back and arms from using his powers

Kai also has a lot of scars from his powers but especially on his forearms and hands

His fight with the Boreal at the end of season 13 left him with some nasty nerve damage from frostbite when he blocked that ice blast so now Kai wears wrist braces sometimes

Cole has like half a dozen facial piercings most of which he has done himself in his bathroom with questionably safe equipment

He and Nya give each other new piercings/stick and poke tattoos sometimes

Nya gave Cole his snake bite piercings

Skylor and Kai tried to date after season 4 but it didnt really work out but they stayed friends and kinda forgot to tell everyone they broke up (at this point they’ve made a game out of how long they can make people think they’re still together)

Its been like 5 years and half the team hasn’t figured out that Kai and Zane started dating awhile ago

Kai sometimes drags Skylor to the nail salon and they get mani-pedis together while gossiping

Zane and Pixal have sort of a sibling dynamic/twin flame relationship

Pixal is dog autistic and Zane is cat autistic (don’t ask me to explain because I cant and if you get it You Get It)

Jay is the communal iPhone charger

Lloyd bleached his hair during his rebellious phase when he was still at Darkley’s but he got way too committed to the bit and Jay still isn’t convinced that Lloyd is actually a brunette

Morro hung around after DotD and he’s become kinda the equivalent of a mildly annoying poltergeist

Like he could leave and pass on if he wanted to but the Ninja kinda grew on him and he refuses to admit it so now he’s their resident insufferable asshole ghost

Jay collects beanie babies

Kai has a 1000000000-step hair/skincare routine and his products takes up like half the space in the bathroom

Cole doesn’t know how to ride a bicycle and at this point he’s too afraid to ask

Nya had a superwholock phase years ago and whenever Kai brings it up to fuck with her she punches him

Pixal liked to scare the living shit out of Kai and Zane when she was part of the Bounty’s computer by blasting All Star by Smash Mouth over the intercom whenever the security cameras caught them making out

Kai, Nya, and Morro all speak fluent Spanish

Skylor still has fangs from when she got turned into an Anacondrai and claims that she’s venomous (she actually isn’t but everyone’s too afraid to find out)

Ronin dabbled briefly in being a furry

Morro doesn’t actively seek out reality TV but whenever it happens to be on (like in the dentist waiting room or something) he gets way too invested

Lloyd is secretly a sucker for those trashy romance novels you can buy at the airport for like 5 bucks

Kai and Cole smoke weed together A Lot

Jay thinks that both of the Smith siblings are very attractive but he’s too embarrassed to say anything about it to Kai

Cole was a warrior cats kid

Nya has the highest alcohol tolerance on the entire team and frequently drinks people under the table

Kai, Nya: Public school

Jay, Zane, Pixal: Homeschooled

Cole, Lloyd: Private school

Lloyd was that kid in elementary school who used to hiss at and bite people (he still does as a grown ass man)

Jay is that friend who claims that they’re not gonna drink but has to get dragged home from the bar later

Zane wears exclusively Hawaiian shirts in the summer

Cole has this thing where his powers make mineral deposits build up in his pores and he gets acne with little bits of crystal stuck in his pimples

Kai is a functioning alcoholic

SUBTERRANEAN NINJAGO AU (P5)

Here’s Zane!

These are original designs so I’d appreciate you didn’t heavily reference, steal or copy them :)

If you haven’t seen the other posts and aren’t aware what Subterranean AU is, again see the post before this one. Easy explanation, it’s a magical boy au with the ninjas as magical boys. In the AU the boys are all tied together to Lloyd in ribbons of fate. The AU takes place in an original setting I made for a group of ocs that I out the ninjas in.

If you seen the original you already know this but if not, this is his role in the story

Zane is proud of his magic, he’s the most experienced with it and has been using it the longest, like his show counterpart he believes in saving people who cannot save themselves. Being kind and protecting those who need it. While he is not a robot in this au, he still holds those values close to his heart and doesn’t shy away from them. He uses his magic to save people, even when people don’t want his help because he’s magic. He’s constantly on the run due to the government not liking him for being so expressive with his magic. While in civilian form, he’s a model student. Perfectly in uniform, straight shoulders, quiet, respectful you name it. When he’s transformed, using his magic to help people? It’s when he’s the happiest. he’s not reckless, he’s very careful, and thoughtful in his outward use of magic. Never being caught, other than Lloyd fating them together, Zane is the one who really gets the others on board, they all look up to him. While helping people was always his motivation, Lloyd became one as well. Lloyd became his new purpose.

His magical boy design originally was supposed to be visually based off his more robotic falcon from like, I don’t remember which season specifically it’s from but when his falcon looks more metallic and more obviously robotic. Originally he was going to look more robotic, ‘cause in the AU he’s actually human, but that was quickly lost and he ended up looking more royal and regal? I think it looks nice, he might also go through a bit of a redesign but I’m not sure yet. I love the design, but I don’t think it reads well enough? I’m not sure yet. His fate bow is around his neck, tying in the back and the fallout from the bow looks like falcon wings. Or is supposed to look like falcon wings, I hope,, his gloves and boots have claws on them and his boots are supposed to look like snow boots. The blue in his face is supposed to resemble the metal plates from his titanium form. His magic gem is over his heart, to mimic and pay homage to his power source from the show.

Little Trivia for him,

He lives alone in a fairly nice apartment complex down down. He doesn't have any pets, but he does feed this bird that comes to his window sometimes.

Again, he’s somewhere between age 16-18 depending on how old you think the ninjas are, I’m indifferent

He also goes to the same public highschool, he is the oldest in the group.

His powers are still ice related, but much stronger than the show (think the way Katara used ice or todoroki) his weapon is a bow. I know in the classic his weapon is shurikens but in later seasons he's show to use a bow and that's just more interesting to me. I imagine the bow words like opal from Steven universe or Madoka from Madoka Magica. Where it's not exactly a physical object, but more on the magical side.

He has multiple jobs, but he's seen most often as a waiter at a diner near his apartment. He's also a vigilante, but he doesn't make money from that.

He has seen the others around campus a few times but usually kept to himself. He's often called 'robotic' or 'heartless' because he sometimes is more literal and doesn't show emotion as often as people are used too. (I personally like autistic headcanon for human Zane,, probably cause I'm autistic and love him) but he really met the others when he ran into Kai at the Library and met Lloyd.

He's been using his magic for the longest, so he's easily the strongest member on the team at the beginning. He uses his powers to help civilians, other magixs and he tries to defeat as many Ananthemas before they can hurt either. He's not very well liked by their government though.

If you have any other questions or some things weren’t clear, you can ask. Lloyd is next so if you have any questions for prep,, go for it 😅

[youraveragedirtclod]

I love this drawing so much so I'm just gonna rave about some of the details

COLE'S LOCKER

the fact it's broken and you can see his face peeking through is so fucking funny I had to do a double take

Also the stuff on his locker

Like the little rainbow flag the BLM fist and the AC/DC sticker. AAGGGHH I can totally see him having those

Then you have Jay getting shoved into his locker by Kai which is just... The definition of their friendship.

Also Jay has POSTERS ABOUT TRAINS which is SO REAL and also a bit autistic I know what you are Jay. And he has the pan and trans flag which is just Yes.

Then Kai's locker is just a bunch of random orange things and his name. It's so funny. Like, he totally would. Just put orange shit. On there. And then his name. It's perfect.

And then Zane in the background just normally stepping into his locker and it being the most UNnormal part of the picture is hilarious. Love my little robot man.

And then of course Lloyd in the foreground. The way he's drawn is just AGSJJDNDDN I want to eat him. Does that make sense? I feel like he'd taste like gingerbread with icing.

In general the art style for this piece is beautiful, the colours are amazing, and the lighting? GORGEOUS.

I want to live in this piece.

i think their locker elevators are funny

[ninjago-happens-here]

NInjago AU- Ninjago but it was Autistic!Lloyd's coping mechanism for real life

I'm inspired by that one Harry Potter headcanon where they said Hogwarts was a coping fantasy for Harry so yeah time to get gritty.

Garmadon is an abusive father in the fact that he has anger management issues. So sometimes he's really kind with Lloyd but sometimes he isn't. It got worst after Misako left the family. Lloyd was using the analogy of 'great devourer blood' as an explanation as to why his father was turning evil.

Darkley's School for Bad Boys is just your average Elementary school where they were a bit more mean to Lloyd because he's essentially parentless

In sometime Lloyd leaves his own home because he's scared of Garmadon and goes to his uncle. His uncle takes him in. Now, his uncle is a martial arts teacher and actually has 4 top students: Kai, Jay, Zane, and Cole.

The green ninja prophecy was just a thing that Lloyd used to illustrate the 4 fighting each other in order to become Wu's protege and inherit the dojo as well as Wu's technique.

Lloyd have actually met the 'ninja' is Juvenile / tuition and he starts to form a bond with them outside of the dojo. Inside, he's getting trained.

Wu finally told them all that Lloyd was going to inherit the dojo, because he felt that he was slowly nearing death's edge. The great devourer analogy is used here as well.

Evil business corporates, which Kai calls 'snakes', which transforms them into snakes in Lloyd's mind, tries to get the land back from the dojo. So S1 culminates into Wu dying and Garmadon managing to save the dojo.

Of course, the 'ninja' didn't want Lloyd to move back with Garmadon. S2 E1 happens pretty similarly in real life, where the ninja try to find jobs to support Lloyd as well as a good living space for him, because whilst Garmadon had saved the dojo, Wu hadn't written a will and his house is given back to the government.

Throughout S2, the Ninja are fighting a legal battle in order to keep Lloyd from Garmadon. It all ends when Lloyd tells the court that he'd rather be with the Ninja.

Tomorrow's tea is also an analogy as to how Lloyd feels more grown up himself, and in this AU Lloyd just matured by understanding that Garmadon doesn't provide a safe home for him.

Zane actually died in S3. It wasn't a computer virus, but rather, a real life one. Lloyd actually spent some time with his father because of quarantine and the ninja not being able to live together. But Zane couldn't die to a virus! The robot joke cemented Zane as a 'robot' in Lloyd's mind. Rather, Zane just had high functioning autism and the ninja didn't understand it at first but quickly realised what was going on.

I like to think of S4 as an analogy of Lloyd entering middle chool, and he was just sitting for an exam, trying to beat out other students and thinking of the principal/teacher of the school, 'Mr Chen', as the true villain because whoever was setting the questions was evil. He actually works together with his classmates to prepare for the exam and found that by working together, he got a higher grade. He still sees Zane, unable to ccept his death. S4 is also the death of the 'good' Garmadon, and Lloyd's accepted that his kind father was no more.

S5 is just Lloyd dealing with his trauma and abuse. He too may display signs of anger management issues. Lloyd calls this angry side of him 'Morro', and Cole feels like he has bipolar disorder, so they get him diagnose and on meds. Slowly, Lloyd feels the influence of Morro draining out of him, such as Morro not possessing Lloyd as much. He feels like Morro has disappeared, but really, it's just him accepting himself.

S6 was just a weird dream Lloyd had, he must have been asked too many questions by Jay about relationships with Nya since Lloyd is seen as Kai's younger brother.

S7 was just Nya and Kai dealing with their parental issues , aka news that their missing parents were found. Krux and Acronix were kidnappers and held them captive for years.

S8, now that is, ooh. Harumi is a girl Lloyd has a crush on in middle school, and Lloyd's heard rumours that his dad would do anything to get him back. 'Sons of Garmadon' was born through too many ruours and Lloyd just refers to that as a simplification of everything that was happening. He didn't know that Harumi was a trap set by his father, and when he tried to escape by fighting his father he couldn't win. he was sent to the hospital.

Unfortunately, Garmaodn had become a very influential person and sent Kai, Jay, and Cole (and Zane, Lloyd's mind supplies) overseas for their work. This left Nya shielding Lloyd. Together with Skylor, Kai's friend and crush, and PIxal, Zane's girlfriend, they try to tough through the extreme legal battles in order for Lloyd to remain separate.

S9 ending is just Lloyd making his father understand his decision to not go with him. With the fight draining out of him, Garmadon turns himself into the police, trying not to hurt Lloyd anymore.

S10 is the final legal battle where Lloyd tries to remain with the 'ninja'. The oni are Garmadon's workers and now find themselves out of a job. Of course they look to Lloyd for the heir to a Mafia that Garmadon was head of. Lloyd and his father have to work things out legally, and the years away from the other person caused the air between them both to be very awkward. They didn't understand each other at all.
