BONDING :

Yakko : Juno and Yakko have an unbreakable bond. Yakko is always the one reading/singing to them before bedtime. He's kind of a doting and overprotective dad, but he is the most down on earth dad and is usually the one being strict when he needs to be, on last resort. He is also the one establishing the rules and making sure the routine stays organised. He is very serious about respectong bedtime, showertime and so on. He and Juno can have never ending unsignificant convos that start at 7pm and by 11pm the convo somehow evolved into a talk about outerpace and its misteries. Yakko loves Juno's childlish innocence and every single second when he's reminded they're growing up makes him nostalgic and panicky. On the rare occasions where Juno would show a bit of anxiety, Yakko would enter a spiral about how he passed his anxiety to the kid and how it's his fault. He loves to teach his kid about everything he's passionate about, and did try to teach him piano.

Max : While Yakko is the dad who establishes the rules and the teacher dad, Max is more of the fun/chill dad that does stupid things with his child and then both get scolded by Yakko (only when it involves them unvoluntarily getting hurt in the process. Otherwise Yakko also cheers for the trouble making). Max is the one giving the nicest cuddles at any moment of the day, but also the one who will randomly yeet Juno in the pool. Like Yakko does with Juno, Max and them have an unbreakable bond. However on the rare occasions where Juno shows insecurity about their teeth, Max gets sad. One becaucause it is his own feature as well, and two because he gets scared that Juno would grow up to be like him as a teen and growing distant from his dad. Max is the one hyping Juno up for ANYTHING. He's the cool dad that allows the rules to be broken once in a while. He did try to get Juno into his sports like basket ball, skateboarding and such, but eventually accepted that Juno was skilled in none of them, and skilled in much different sports instead. But he is always here at any dance/gym competition, cheering the loudest with a sign.

~♡°•○●☆°•○●♡°•○●☆°•○●♡°•○●☆°•○●♡°•○●☆~

BONUS : the nicknames

- Max calls Juno pumpkin, little bean, peanut, little dude, little man, little menace, June

- Yakko calls Juno honey, lovebug, sweetie pie, cutie pie, baby, THE CHEESIEST NICKNAMES EVER

- Juno calls Yakko dad, daddy

- Juno calls Max dad, pop

[yalocalfanficaddict]

I don’t know why but it feels like so many characters in My Hero Academia have Autism (looking at you Bakugou and Todoroki) or ADHD (looking at you Kaminari and Kirishima) or both (looking at you Midoriya and Hatsume). Like, there are so many that seem neurodivergent to point that I wonder if Mr. Horikoshi himself is a lil funky that way…

[fandomsfordays21]

I usually hate addressing drama on the internet, but I have to say something about this.

TW for ableism and brief mentions of abuse below

Some random user created an account JUST to hate on the Autistic Ink Sans headcannon. Not evening having any annoying "Reasons" like the person about the Trans Cross headcannon. They're simply just being ableist. As an Ink Sans fictionkin, one who has Autism and ADHD myself and who's neurodivergence is a big lead to the development of that kintype, it's really hurtful. They have not only called me a "retard" on multiple occasions but also made a post directly asking Jakei to kill of my Underverse counterpart because they "Don't see a use in having an idiotic retard like him still hanging around." (Their words)

I physically cannot put into words how hurtful this is, it harms me on a very deep and personal level with both how they're treating autistics in general, how they're treating Ink, and how the word "retard" is not only a slur towards autistic people and people with mental disabilities, but also a word that is a direct trigger due to multiple years of abuse I had to endure. This is the same reason I despise being called anything along the lines of "Psycho" or "Crazy" in a hateful setting.

Mind you, this person made an account specifically for this. There are no prior posts except for those related to things I've mentioned before, and they didn't even bother to put up a pfp or a banner... Just got right to posting hate.

I'm not going to drop the account name, because you'll know them if you see them, but I want you to be aware.

I now know there is at least one person out there who wants me dead just for existing. I knew this already, it was just a fact of life, but being struck in the face with it on such a personal level? On a site that's my safe place?

I haven't talked about all I want to about this, but I can't bring myself to, really. I'm just really tired of this shit and I am going to block this person asap.

Autistic Character Headcanons

I'm working on a personal project and I want to know which characters from media (shows/movies/books/etc) other autistic people headcanon as being autistic! Feel free to comment your autistic character headcanons or message me, and additionally I would love to hear your reasoning if you'd be comfortable sharing.

[very-gay-poet]

This was supposed to be about my fanfic and what themes I wanted to portray but I may have ranted a little lmao (this was written by someone who is late diagnosed)

the only kids at Hogwarts that are diagnosed as neurodivergent/disabled are those who were raised/have close ties to the muggle world so there's tons of kids who just don't know that there's people like them and they aren't a freak/stupid/weird/lazy their brains just operate differently.

Ron having dyslexia but not knowing it/ being undiagnosed while Hermione and Harry are diagnosed with their respective neurodivergence, used to show the difference on how a child who is undiagnosed views themselves and the importance of diagnosing your child if you suspect/ reminding children that they're allowed to talk about things they struggle with and that they should be treated with seriousness when they open up about it, and it not being seen as a "downside", a "weakness" as well as not being seen as a "super power" or that you're "special" (while that can be encouraging to younger kids it needs to be reminded that their disability can disable them and they're not wrong/a burden for asking for help/assistance and shouldn't be expected to never have bad days especially with people with chronic illness where mobility aids are involved and being interchangeable for some people (needing a wheelchair one day but a cane the next). The message being; you are allowed to have some sort of aid, you are allowed to ask for help help, and you sure as hell shouldn't apologize for simply existing in another's space. You are allowed to be there like anyone else.)

[bbeeew]

lets get one thing straight

You would not be aloud in kinger's fortress

And ik

"but what about-"

No. That's his autism hole.

Its his place to be around people and to "socialize' without dealing with bright lights,eye contact or loud noises including said conversation while also not being secluded/isolated.

Respect the fortress, it's impenetrable to all.

[quietlyimplode]

I blew Nat is autistic (based on basically everything she does in the winter soldier and black widow)

Could be cool to see the team learning not to disrupt her pre/post mission routines and then subtly doing things in the future to support her.

Hey Anon, thanks for your ask. I am not an autistic adult and am not so comfortable in writing as one.

There is this wonderful fic Of Spectrum and Spoons, which may be up your alley and interest you if you are looking for a portrayal of Natasha with autism.

I have however written some headcannons - up to you whether or not you take them on as autistic traits, trauma or some other neurodiversity. <3

Natasha has safe foods - everyone knows what they are and Tony makes sure the tower is well stocked with them

There’s one suit that Natasha likes over the other four she has. Clint thinks they look identical but when he asks her, she can tell him the differences.

Natasha’s does well with scripted social communication - it’s mandatory in her line of work so if she can pretend to be someone else and play a role it’s easier. When she’s not, and it’s just her, the demands go down and she prefers to communicate on her own terms.

Often she will walk out of the kitchen when there’s too many people in there

She likes hiding in the vents with Clint. It’s quiet and enclosed and dark

Natasha likes dim lighting

Certain smells will send her into hiding - Steve knows this when he made fish soup. She avoided the kitchen for days, even though everyone else couldn’t smell it, she could. until Clint burnt something and it cleared the smell out.

Natasha finds ways of regulating herself. Most Clint knows, but when she first started at shield he didn’t know that Fury recognised her need for water and the sea; and after hard missions he’d send her on a low ball missions to the beach. It was unspoken and she never thanked him for it.

Steve enjoys slow music, he learnt about tempos reducing heart rates after panic attacks from Natasha

The idea for a lullaby or a grounding rhyme for Bruce came from Natasha. Clint has a similar set of phrasing to help her when she’s dissociating. Only Clint knows these, but Tony has some words that help too.

Natasha loves soft things. She never had any in childhood and enjoys a secret stash of soft items

Clint knows that Natasha will do ballet to regulate herself, but it doesn’t stop him worrying

Clint and Natasha will do puzzles together, Natasha isn’t so good at them but is patient at finding a piece and sticks with it long after Clint has fallen asleep on the couch

Natasha hates wearing shoes

<3 thanks for trusting me with your prompt Anon.

This week is something else - send in headcannons, fic ideas, wip questions, recs etc - I’ll take a couple more and choose which <3

[eeclare]

Hot take (not really)

Gene and Tina are most definitely autistic. They’re the two characters in the show that show the most obvious autistic traits; Gene does have meltdowns on occasion (best example of this is season 7 episode 8 “The Laser-inth”) and has a major special interest in music, as well as his general lack of understanding in social situations (like when he talks about his bodily functions at inappropriate moments). Tina vocal stims CONSTANTLY. Like. It’s one of the things her character is known for! I’ve heard people say that she’s not stimming because she only does it when things are going wrong or when she’s stressed/anxious but stimming is often a self-soothing method. So yeah, she stims. She has a major special interest in horses and idk her erotic friend-fiction does not strike me as neurotypical lol. And of course there’s her general social awkwardness lol how could I forget that

Louise, Bob, and Linda are neurodivergent for sure!! And I think that a great argument can be made for Bob being autistic! In fact, i do headcannon him as being autistic, just as an autistic person that is masking almost constantly. The only time he lets himself unmask is when he’s doing something that pertains to his special interests (burgers, cooking, Thanksgiving) or when he’s doing something he’s invested in! There’s also the fact that he humanizes inanimate objects like cooking utensils and food (among many, many other things) but that’s not necessarily an autistic trait in Bob, I honestly think it’s more of a trauma response to him having a really rough childhood. He’s also shown to have a really hard time in social situations and he often feels like something is wrong with him, or that he’s too different from everyone else to really fit in. This is actually something that all the Belchers are shown to experience throughout the series. Back to Bob though, while I think that this feeling of being too different and not fitting is likely due to autism AND his rough upbringing all in one.

Onto Linda and Louise. To me, they’re the most ambiguous out of all the Belchers. There are some episodes that I watch where I think that they totally could be Autistic and then in other episodes I think “meh, not so much”. There’s for sure some ADHD in there though (same could be said for Gene). They do both show that they have an issue with authority figures though, which is an Autistic trait, but it could also just be that they’re generally rebellious characters lol

All this being said, I want to state right here and now that I totally accept that not everyone thinks the Belchers are autistic. That’s completely valid! I recognize that neurotypical people often project themselves onto TV show characters that they relate to. What I’m saying though, is that there are a lot of signs that most (if not all) the Belchers are autistic/neurodivergent. I really love Bob’s burgers discourse, and if anyone wants to help me out with Linda and Louise then please do :) I find that I have a harder time with them because they’re just not characters that I am able to relate my own experiences to

I hope that this post is coherent, I don’t really post all that much, but I’ve been thinking about this for a while and I just wanted to share my thoughts with everyone

[queen-of-the-queers]

Hot take: I feel like people love "quirky" traits in characters that are also features of Autism/general neurodiversity, until that character is actually established as having Autism (or people suggest that this might be the case).

[lune-yaks]

♡︎Neurodiversity headcannons♡︎ : Yakko

This is my take on what's going on in these silly children's cartoony brain. But no way in hell are they neurotypical. I'll start off with Yakko, but I will do the other siblings in other parts. Including Wizz my own OC.

~♡°•○●☆°•○●♡°•○●☆°•○●♡°•○●☆°•○●♡°•○●☆~

Yakko has autism and ADHD. Since his symtoms for both are different, they sometimes trigger each other and that can get complicated.

SELF PROJECTING YAY

His stims :

His constant yakking is a major consequence of his ADHD, and also a stim for him, as his stims are mainly vocal.

He will stim by repeating phrases or words, he can blurt it out randomly, or do it to self-regulate, when he's anxious. The phrases or words he will repeat and use to vocal stim will mostly come from a situation he finds funny, that he heard from his siblings or a random Youtube video. The phrase or word doesn't have to be funny in its content, it can just be the way it was said that he finds funny. He just likes the way it sounds sometimes and the actual word or content of the phrase doesn't really matter.

He also just uses his own catchphrases to vocal stim, "Helloooo Nurse !", "G'night everybody !", and such.

He also stims by whistling and humming.

But he also have some physical stims. He will flap his hands, wag his tail, kick his feet and bounce on his feet or tail when he's exited.

He stomps/taps his foot when he's getting frustrated or nervous.

Randomly, he stims by swaying his legs when he's sitting or laying on his stomach, he sways his tail, he blinks repetitively, he twitches his nose (like a rabbit), and walks on his tiptoe.

His sensory issues :

Yakko has several sensory issues, more or less severe. For starters, he hates when someone pets him (especially his head) without his permission. The only ones who get to do it without permission are his loved ones.

He doesn't like headpats, and will get extremely disturbed if someone pulls on his ears or tail. Pulling on his tail can be okay when it's done softly (like when they use their tail to play skipping rope), but pulling on his ears, even softly, is a major no.

Noise can sometimes be overwhelming for him. He doesn't mind it when it's loud noises from him and his siblings like when they cause chaos. The kind of noise that overwhelms him is the background noise with different noises coming from everywhere around him. Like in a public space and he can suddenly hear everything, 100 times louder. The phones ringing. The different conversations. The babies crying. The sound of the cars. Cultery clinking together. All of that.

Ironically enough, silence can also be very overwhelming. Like complete silence. He can't sleep in complete silence because it will give him the impression that his thoughts are too loud. So he always sleeps with light music, or the sound he likes best is when he goes to sleep early and he can hear his siblings just doing their things in the tower. It's perfect. Not too silent and not too loud. It reassures him.

Dark is also a big sensory issue. Not only he is scared of the dark but it makes him anxious. He needs to constantly be able to see. Or he loses it. He also can't sleep in the complete dark and will need a source of light somehow.

His skin being dry can make him wants to scream and cry sometimes. There's moments when he will randomly need to go wet his hands under his gloves or his feet or even his face because the dryness is too much.

Sometimes, he won't like the feeling of walking on his whole feet. It will get to a point where the feeling and sensory issue will hurt. So he will somtimes walk on the tip of his toes. Related to that, he hates shoes. They're his enemies.

Same reason he doesn't wear a shirt or any top and only wears some rarely is because he hates it. Simply. Shirts, coats = big sensory issue.

He doesn't like when food or drinks are too hot. He can enever eat or drink anything that just finished being cooked or brewed. He has to wait for it to be at a perfect temperature.

He has a general issue with temperature. He hates being too hot or cold. Wich is part of the reason he also wears pants and no tops, aside from the fact that shirts are a sensory issue, just pants and no tops create a perfect temperature for him.

He's not a fan of bright lights. He prefers when the light is dimmed.

Random ways his autism/ADHD will manifest :

He sometimes stands with the "T-rex arms".

He just zones out sometimes. He doesn't mean to and it doesn't mean he's not interested in what's going on, he will just zone out and end up in some sort of trance, especially when he listens to music.

He has trouble controlling the volume of his voice. Sometimes when he talks, someone will point out to him that he's talking too loud, and he won't even notice.

He gets "the zoomies", and will randomly need to bounce or run around for no reason. He also has trouble sitting/standing still.

Sometimes when it's been too long since he's been quiet, he will need to use his voice and will blurt sometimes out, sometimes just make sounds, for no apparent reason.

He obviously has troubles picking up on social cues. He doesn't always get the hints, so if someone expects something out of him they need to be specific and clear about it because he has troubles reading people.

Sometimes he can be brutally honest, even when he doesn't intend to bash or be mean. He will just say what he thinks and will not always get why some people take what he said as rude while he was just being honest with no intent of hurting anyone. This doesn't mean he doesn't get sarcasm, at the contrary we all know he's the king od sarcasm. It's just sometimes when he's not in a sarcastic or playful mood, he will not pick up on everything. He's extremely good at sarcasm when he wants to be.

And him too, sometimes, can take things the wrong way without taking the time to properly analyse it, but it happens rarely. When it happens it's very often when someone says something that will hurt or offend him and he just gets upset immediatly, and the other person has to explainthe misunderstanding and explain to him this wasn't what they meant. Yakko will feel embarrassed and will quickly apologize when this happens.

He doesn't get meltdowns often but when he does...it's violent, and can last from one up to two hours.

Even though his incredible wit will make him come up with those amazing comebacks of his no matter the situation, he often gets forgetful at the last minute and needs a moment to remember what he was going to say, hence his "uuuuuuuuuhh".

He is forgetful in general, and feels guilty about it especially when he forgets something that has something to do with his siblings.

When he happy stims, he giggles non stop.

His hyperfixation/special interests :

Geography, history and astronomy ! He never gets tired of yakking about those three subjects.

His comfort items :

His slacks. They are his favorite and really comforting for him.

He has several basic stims toys but his favorites are puzzles stim toys like Rubik's cubes and things like that. His most regular stims toys like bubbles-popping toys or stress balls are all in purple because it's his favorite color and it's also part of the comfort. He feels better if the things he uses are in his comfort color.

This is all for now, I spent hours writing this :)

[ishankedurmom]

thats why im writing one of my tmnt iterations leos as having arfid :)

i have it and the lack of characters with arfid is... honestly disheartening. the world needs to realise that there are more eating disorders than norexia nd bulmia

Okay hang on...

Are there any characters in any media with ARFID?

There are more and more autistic characters but I have not seen a single one with ARFID.

I would like to see a character with ARFID please. I think it would make me feel better about having it.

The event rules are below the cut:

Event Rules

All fanworks must be about Tech being neurodivergent in some way. That is, after all, the theme of this event :).

Tag all entries with #NDTech2024 so that I can find them and reblog them here.

Only submit your own creations. Do not steal or repost other people’s work and attempt to pass it off as your own.

If you want to submit an 18+ work for our “After Dark” sub-event, then please make sure to give it a community label so that it cannot be viewed by younger (under 18) participants.

Tag anything that may be triggering to some viewers so that people can effectively curate their experience. Remember, it is better to over-tag than under-tag. You can never be too cautious.

No gatekeeping. Neurodivergence is a massive and varied umbrella of identities. No one person is the sole arbiter of what “counts”.

Leave your fandom wank at the door. This is an event meant to celebrate our diverse fandom’s neurodivergent Tech headcannons. Don’t derail with shipping discourse or harassment.

On a similar note, no bullying, harassment, or name-calling of any kind will be tolerated. This is a safe space. In the immortal words of Bill and Ted, “be excellent to each other”.

Be respectful in your portrayal of Tech. Make sure to research any neurodiverse conditions that you yourself do not have before featuring them in your works. Also, keep in mind that Tech is a clone of a guy based on Temuera Morrison, who is of Māori descent. Avoid whitewashing.

Feel free to include shipping in your works. All ships are welcome so long as everyone is a consenting adult. :)

[batsarebetterthanpeople]

Tbh people with the "Izzy is autistic" headcannon really seem to not have close relationships with Neurodivergent people. Like I am autistic, I have two roommates who are autistic and one roommate with ADHD and I work in home care for disabled people and my clients are incredibly neurodiverse (not just ADHD and autism but other things too I won't get into specifics there tho). I've literally never seen Izzy-esque behavior from any of those people but you know who I have seen it from? Neurotypicals who are mad at me for being too weird. I see Izzy ass behavior from them all the time. They accuse me of being insane and unpleasant. They accuse me of having trouble focusing and accuse me of goofing off even when I have things under control and they yell at me when I continue to do my thing. They assume I'm lazy and stupid when I don't do exactly what they want me to do and they expect me to have terminal grind set and keep going even when I'm out of spoons (for want of a better term). Like that's all Izzy ass behavior. Meanwhile me and my roommates have a rule where if we have issues we sit down and talk about it and we've gotten incredibly good at mediating conflict because we can't read passive aggression very well so if there's an issue we want to get solved we need to sit down and talk about it. Like if you're gonna read autism into someone Izzy would be the last character I would look at frankly.

how tordedd would play out in ebeims :3

how Edd views Tord: He loves his silly little loser boyfriend!!!!! he thinks Tord is gross but in a cute way if that makes sense. Tord frequently needs to remind him to eat food and and stuff like that, because he has RAGING adhd and the pills to not help the memory loss lmao. I don't really have a lot for him? However, I do imagine his love, platonic or romantic, being unconditional.

how Tord views Edd: Tord is veryyyyy biased towards Edd, as in, he will almost always take his side no matter the situation. To be honest, i think he'd try and talk Edd out of something if it was genuinely against his (granted, very few) morals. He idolizes him and Edd sometimes has to remind Tord that he isn't perfect and is capable of making mistakes! Tord sort of had this inferiority complex. Course, since this AU is literally called "eddsworld but everyone is mentally stable," Edd eventually confronts Tord because he suspected this and they worked it out.

overall relationship dynamic: They're so cute its disgusting! Whenever they first started dating, they were both shy, but Tord much more than edd, which led to Edd (hehe rhyming) being the main initiator of affection. Now that Tord is more comfortable actually dating someone, he has no problem initiating, but he just prefers to let Edd do it. Of course, as with all relationships, this changes according to the mood of the partners. They both sleep in Tords room because his bed is bigger, but they brought blankets and pillows over from Edd's just to add to the comfort level.

I headcannon them both as neurodiverse (Edd with adhd, Tord with asd((YES IM PROJECTING IDC)) so i feel like parallel play would be a common occurrence with them. Edd draws his silly little comics and animations, while Tord codes some new model robot or website.

Also I kind of forgot to mention this, but the premise of the au isn't that everyone's issues were magically removed, just that they happened but they healed from it. i love hurt/comfort if you can't tell! Anyways, dynamics between the main four coming soon!
