#maladaptive Daydreaming?? maybe????

[vampire-biter]

Does anyone else have all of the listeners for redacted “react” to the audios in real time as if it’s some sort of gacha reaction video with

1. ships for listeners with other listeners (or even characters with other characters *cough cough* Poly!Damn And Poly!ShawPack *cough cough*)

2. playful bickering between characters / play fighting

3. laughing at jokes they make

4. making fun of a certain voiced character

5. makes new headcannons during said hand out seshes I guess you could call them

6. even have oc characters hang out with the listeners

7. LITERALLY ACT OUT ALL OF IT WHILE ITS HAPPENING-

or am I do mentally insane for this to be relatable.

Kinda weird rant below???

It’s not even just redacted videos it’s every video I watch.

I’ve started going places doing this btw just to survive things like going to the store or eating food out at a restaurant.

Just not moving my mouth anymore when I’m just talking to them yk?

If I’m talking to another person I’ll pretend they’re another character or fucking listener, IVE STARTED DOING THIS OVER MESSAGES AS WELL??

LIKE IM TALKING TO MY FRIEND ON DISC OR WTVR AND IM JUST LIKE

“Honey just texted me srry hold on.. I’ll be back angel.”

LIKE WHAT??

AND THEN I REALIZE IM DOING IT AND IM JUST LIKE

“Hey. So that’s not normal.”

AM I MENTALLY SANE?????

Honestly my heart goes out to those people who can't bring themselves to do their school/work tasks because they're crushed by how intimidating it all feels. Or those who do their best but can't shake off that terror as they're doing it. Or those who kinda come close to ruining their professional lives because their inner fictional world is much more comforting than the real one, but still do their best to not let everything fall apart.

Like you know you've got tons to do. You know your success - heck, maybe your livelihood- is hinging on it. But you just can't. Everything is so intimidating and you're trying to get yourself to move, but your fictional world will comfort you and tell you that you're awesome, while the real will punch you down and it's up to you to stay afloat because if you drown, it sure as hell won't help you.

A lot of the way we've structured this world is scary. I just remembered that post about the modern world being built on denying human limitations and fuck is that an accurate post. And now with the current state of politics/society/whatever Gen-Z are n for a scarier time.

If you're putting off answering that email, if your hands are shaking and you whisper meek encouragements to yourself as you type, if you're thinking about the comfort your fictional world gives you and that makes you sad because why the hell can't the real world be like that? My heart goes out to you. You're not lazy, stupid or trying to skirt by 'real work'. You're just torn between survival and its difficulty and I'm so proud if you manage to finish the intimidating task even if it's not perfect or you were scared while doing it.

aaand that's enough reality for today, time to zone out and enter the daydream world I've been meticulously building for the past year only to repeat the same scene 27 times and then fall asleep

Love going to a really small, left winged college with a big LGBT+ population. Just walked past a table in the main cafeteria to someone watching Dead Boy Detectoves on mobile

I am Never Not Thinking about Comic Ambrosius y'all

This mf was clearly so obsessed with Ballister, constantly showing up to "thwart" his plans without ever seeming to take it seriously, seemingly just as an excuse to be around him. He acts like a bratty thirteen-year-old with a crush who never got taught to express it properly.

He seems to live in his own little world, where he and Ballister have this silly little Nemesis relationship that's just a part of a game instead of the deeply fractured and tragic thing that it was. Presumably because it's easier to deal with than the guilt.

In the prison scene, he seems to completely ignore when Ballister basically tells him to shut the fuck up, continuing to reminisce fondly as though they're still friends. I really feel like he lives in his own little reality half the time. Living in a little world where they're playing a game of cops and robbers and they're still close deep down, even if he isn't doing it consciously, is a lot easier than acknowledging his guilt and the pain he caused someone he loved.

I think this is the reason he didn't apologize for so long, and also the reason his memory is so shit even before the head injuries. He legitimately cannot remember exactly what happened at the joust. He wanted so hard to believe it was an accident, to live in a world where it was an accident, that his brain created a false reality and erased the parts of his own memories that contradicted that. He didn't even realize that he hadn't apologized. He is horrified to receive that information. His brain constructed a reality where they had already made up, even though he knew they hadn't. His memories got so jumbled between his imagined and true experiences that he just assumed he must have already apologized, because he was sorry, why wouldn't he have?

I'm not trying to say that he was struggling with psychosis, he knew what was and wasn't real. But his brain dealt with guilt and trauma in very disorienting ways, choosing to ignore or erase truths that hurt him.

I can't imagine what their healing journey must have been like. Imagine trying to un-fuck the thing you fucked up the most in your entire life while also learning how to exist without the ability to walk unassisted, and possibly also recovering from brain damage, dysmorphia from your face getting shredded, and a myriad of other injuries. I cannot imagine the self-worth of someone who is being cared for by the person they love the most, who they irreparably hurt, while also feeling like a burden because they are newly disabled and can't yet take care of themselves.

Also it makes me sad when people talk like Blackheart would hate/be cruel to him post-comic like he wasn't willing to die/kill his friend to save him. He'd give him a ton of shit all the time probably but he'd also protect him like a wolfhound change my mind okay I'm done thanks for coming to my Ted talk

If Nya and regulus ever divorced in whatever crazy impossible universe that would be, they'd split the custody, Nya would get main custody of Pierre and Reg main custody of Kalypso, i think they'd end on good terms if they ever divorced tho so it'd be like not a biggie

Pretty sure Regulus would have both of them for a week, then they'd be divided onto the parents (Pierre to Nya, Kal to reg) for two weeks and then they'd be at Nya's together for a week

They would go to school together I'm pretty sure and it'd rlly be interesting to see how the whole divorce thing would affect their relationship, plus their relationship w the other parent cus its already pretty interesting in the actual universe

Like Kalypso and Nya are pretty close, not like that but they do love each other very deeply, Nya sees a lot of themselves in Kal but they also see a lot of Regulus and regulus and Pierre are very interesting too cus they're not that close but they get each other, like pierre is like reg in a lot of ways, but he's also like Nya in a lot of ways like he's just a very good balance between them

I'm pretty sure Regulus wouldn't rlly know how to act around Pierre most of the time, like knowing about the thing w his mother, and knowing about the thing w Kal and knowing that Pierre knows about him and Kal they'd be a bit awkward I think? But in his childhood he's amazing, it just gets awkward after the divorce but him and the two kids go on a trip together for like three weeks one summer when they're 16 and they learn a lot about each other, once again, and especially Reg and Pierre learn to not just appreciate what the other is now, but also what they have with the other ppl in their family, e.g. Pierre learns more about him and Kal and about how him and his mother used to be and how everything happened, and regulus learns to appreciate the fact that his ex-wife has somebody important, somebody to love and take care of, who knows her so well, even if it is her own son, and he learns to appreciate how much Pierre means to Kalypso, how much they mean to each other, now much they need each other to be okay.

God i love them so much

So like ik this started as a divorce post but tbh i cannot write or imagine any way that this family could be split apart they're just bound by red string. Yk the red string theory? They're tied up together, unable to move and get out of it forever, in the best way possible.

Daydreaming hurts 🥲

I'm hurt. Inside I'm an absolute mess, crying/sobbing uncontrollably like I've been stabbed 200x.

But on the outside, I'm fine
