What would a mother not do for her child What lengths would a mother not go There's a bond that exists between mother and child With no end to how strong it can grow It's a promise for life between mother and child It begins from the moment of birth.
================
She is six years old, and standing on the porch at her Auntie Alicia’s cabin. She is six years old, and holding an old rifle in her hands, standing at the railing and pointing the nozzle at a large target a couple feet away. There’s a pair of old ear muffs covering her ears. Behind her is her daddy and her sister, and Auntie Alicia. She can’t see them.
Danielle Martha Fenton is six years old, and her momma has her arms wrapped warmly around her, keeping the gun steady for her. It’s heavy and the butt digs into her shoulder uncomfortably, and she feels nothing but determined. And nervous.
Her momma was teaching her and Jazzy how to shoot, and they’re down in Arkansas to visit Auntie Alicia for her second “Divorce-iversary” as Auntie calls it. She keeps a hunting rifle in her gun safe for the rabbits that like to nibble on her garden. She mostly grows rhubarb, which goes untouched. But her carrots and greens and other veggies like to be tempting snacks for the game.
Regardless, she is six years old and learning how to shoot. Her momma and her daddy (mostly her daddy) have been banned from every shooting range outside of Amity Park in a hundred mile radius. So Auntie is the best place to learn, or so momma says.
Danny thinks it's just an excuse to see her sister, not that she's complaining. She loves visiting Auntie.
She’s already seen Jazzy do this, her momma told her before the muffs went on to shoot when ready. No use trying to fire when you’re not; you can’t afford to miss when shooting ghosts.
Danny breathes out steady, just like momma taught her, and quells her trembling little fingers. She focuses down the barrel, and pulls the trigger.
Immediately, the recoil throws her off, the side of the gun that her cheek was resting on knocks against her skin, harsh enough to bruise if it weren’t for her momma’s steady hands holding onto her. The bang of the gun startles her more than she thought it would, and her heart leaps up and runs a jackrabbit through her chest.
The gun is carefully slipped out of her hands, and Danny lets it go easily, her cheek smarting in pain and her eyes wide and following up to momma. Momma turns the safety on, and with a gentle hand, pushes against her chest. Danny takes a few steps back, and slips the ear muffs off her head.
Mommy is smiling big at her, something that Danny can’t help but replicate on her own face as her heart swells. “Did I get it, momma?” She asks, watching as she passes the gun off to Auntie Alicia, who steps over to take it.
“I’m going to go see, sweetie, but I think you did.” Momma coos, before planting both her hands on the porch railing and, in a single leap, vaults over the side and onto the grass. She’s dressed all comfortable for the summer heat, with her hair all tied back and in shorts and a tank top and nice boots. Danny’s ribs swell hopefully, and she stands on her tiptoes to watch her walk over.
“I’ll be hard-pressed to believe if you didn’t, Martha Mae,” Auntie tells her, grinning like a cat, “that was a damn good shot.”
‘Martha Mae Knight’ was Danny’s granny’s name. Auntie Alicia calls her that because of her middle name — and because, by her words, she has her momma’s weird-shaped eyebrows and piercing blue eyes. The kind that could scare a hawk into singing like a robin. It was Danny’s favorite nickname ever.
Daddy laughs brightly, the sound painful on her ears but twice as nice, and despite the distance, Momma whirls her head around to shoot Auntie a glare; “Language, Alicia. Not around my girls.” She warns. Her accent always comes through when they’re around Auntie. It’s Danny’s favorite thing to listen to.
“Do you think so, auntie?” Danny says, bright-eyed and ever-optimistic. Auntie Alicia nods fiercely as Momma finally reaches the target and searches for the bullet hole. Daddy then comes up behind her, still laughing, and claps a hand onto her shoulder so hard that it makes her knees hurt.
“Of course she did!” Dad boasts, as bright as the sun and twice as warm. He shakes Danny affectionately, wobbling her on her feet and pulling her straight into his side. She goes so willingly with a burble of giggles. “She’s got the eyes of a Fenton! And our family are darn good shots.”
Auntie eyes him up and down, her smile immediately fading off into a pressed line. “I’m sure you mean she’s got the eyes of a Knight. You couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn at twenty paces, Jack Fenton.”
Jazzy holds back giggles from where she’s standing by the door, her ear muffs in hand, and Danny watches her Daddy’s dark eyes immediately narrow. Just like Auntie’s, his smile tapers off into a frown.
Before he can say anything, there’s a cheer from the yard, and they all turn to Momma clapping her hands in delight.
Danny immediately pricks her ears up, and would’ve darn near rushed over to the railing if it weren’t for her Daddy’s hand on her shoulder. She yells instead, excitement thrumming like a hummingbird against her ribs, “Did I hit it, momma?!”
Momma beams at her with all the pride in the world, “You sure did, Danny!” And she turns to press her finger against the target, right on the inside red ring of the battered old bag. “Right here, sweet girl!”
There are cheers from all around, and Danny’s heart bursts inside her lungs with shiny, sunshine glee. She puffs her chest out big, and smiles so wide it hurts the cheek where the gun smacked her. Her Daddy shakes again, squeezing her tight against his side in a hug that Danny happily reciprocates.
“What’d I tell you, Martha Mae?” Auntie tells with a big wink and a wide grin, the gun still gripped tight in her hands as Momma makes her way back over. “You got a Knight’s eye.”
When Momma makes it back over the railing, she hugs Danny tight and praises her shot. Danny looks her in the eyes and chases the feeling, and asks to shoot again.

Thinkem bout a modern AU where Ace and Sabo obviously being two or three years older in school, were experiencing things years before Luffy would. Things like prom, grad and all that. But because he could COME to these events they did their best to get him envolved as much as possible so he wouldn’t feel left out. And when years rolled around, Ace and Sabo are well into collage each on different sides of the country. They still come down to help pick out an outfit for him and be there for his graduation. After all he was there for them.
Jus…
Luffy manages to graduate by the skin of his teeth and a LOT of work from all of the east blue gang. No teacher thought he would make it and it really was a moment of celebration. And as Luffy takes that paper thingy, and looks over the crowd. He thinks if only for a moment, no one is there. Gramps is Busy, Makino is running the bar, Dadan and the others of the Share house all have jobs they gotta go to.
Then all of a sudden he hears the loudest cheers in an almost quiet room. And there are his brothers, Dadan trying to wrestle them down and Makino laughing with Woop Slap. His brothers from schools hours away. His brothers who are in collage and following there dreams. His brothers are here just like they promised three years ago when they graduated. Completely forgetting to thank the teacher, he runs down the steps and Usopp has to stop him from going to them right away since there were still other students. So the rest of the ceremony he’s sitting on his chair like he’s going to explode quietly whispering to all them “ My brothers are here!! They made it!!” And all of them can’t even be mad cause Luffy deserves it for all the effort he puts in
#one piece#modern au#asl brothers#monkey d. luffy#portgas d ace#revolutionary sabo#alternate universe#head canons#thoughts#fanfic#ficlet#technically?#it’s so funny writing this cause my ass is NOT American#also I didn’t graduate normally anyways#he’s wearing that dorky graduation cap over the strawhat#I feel like the entire year group would have argued for Luffy to keep it#students love Luffy teachers grieve him#he’s not stupid btw. Luffy can learn but he needs to put in a LOT of extra work for it#rambles#one piece modern au

[to the tune of where is the justice's first lines] this world is rotting from the surface to the core / am i the only one whose life feels like a chore / this whole society needs someone for repairs every day's a little worse and i don't think anyone cares
#someone has to rewrite witj to actually be a light song it makes me so actively mad#it's such a GOOD SONG#but it's for MIKAMI#(well the classmates would be disagreeing with mikami but w/e)#the japanese version of hurricane fixes hurricane but the japanese version of witj does not fix witj. alas. Alas.#anyway 1) i also kind of get mad about 腐ってる being translated to rotten instead of rotting so im fixing it#2) i stole the first rhyme from primadonna#3) this is staged as an internal monologue. hes either in the classroom or watching the news idk#4) ideally these lyrics make you want to punch him#anyway this was a great usage of the last first-half hour of 2024#maybe writing yuri will make me feel better#okay adding more tags because apparently the brain is demanding tumblr posting:#in my head this is his i want song#the interaction with his teacher is just the teacher telling him to pay attention in class because hes the star student#the interaction with the students is all them being like wow light youre so smart hey light can you teach me homework#um light do you want to go to a cafe with me sometime maybe#and light is like :) thanks! sure! sorry im kinda busy (respectively)#and then continues singing I HATE MY LIFE AND WISH THERE WAS LITERALLY ANYTHING OF VALUE IN IT#while people circle him and he gets lifted upward slightly (not too much) on a pedestal in the center of the stage#oh and the song is titled rot

Jace was totally a Hudol kid right?
He failed wizardry 101 three years in a row, he probably hooked up with your crush, he was voted most likely to be arrested on account of all the pranks he pulled around campus. He smokes cigarettes in the parking lot. He’s at the top of his sorcery classes and his name is on everyone’s lips, he’s Jace Stardiamond and if you don’t know him, then maybe you’re just not cool enough to.
By the time he’s a junior, everyone has an idea of who he is but when he’s alone with himself, he has a hard time deciding if he knows who he is. Every moment of his life he’s been told the whos, whats and whys and he feels trapped inside of the labels and high standards so he takes comfort in the unknown.
For once he finally feels in tune with his magic. He doesn’t need to know where it comes from when it comes to him as easy as breathing. He still has such a keen eye for it, though. He approaches sorcery with such a precision and resolve that leaves people in awe of him, the attention doesn’t hurt either.
He always admired that quality in the wizards surrounding him, there’s no reason he can’t borrow that kind of self discipline for himself if it leads to better self discovery.
Still, he can’t take the way his old wizardry textbooks mock him from where they live on his bookshelf. He finds a home for them far at the top of his closet and doesn’t look back.
-
Is2g the way he told Adaine he couldn’t take a level of wizard, “I tried.” And then him saying he always thought wizards were a bit stinky has haunted me since the finale aired. That man has a deep vendetta associated with wizardry, you just know it. That shit haunts him.
#ngl I feel like Jace’s mom was probably a high elf and wanted her kids to go to the most prestigious school in Elmville but his dad was a#human adventurer that just wanted his sons to be happy#they get divorced by the time Jace is 15 and he chooses to stay with his dad bc the thought of going to live in fallinel with his mom makes#him itch#fallinel reminds him of Hudol and he doesn’t /love/ Hudol#his brother does though and his brother is definitely the good boy pragmatist wizard of the family#Jace’s dad tells him if he doesn’t wanna go to Hudol anymore he can transfer to aguefort and he does it. he doesn’t even attempt to try#wizard classes and it’s way too late to find an adventuring party#that final year is kinda a blur but it was fun.#he spent most of his time at parties and hooking up with more people than he could count#also in my head Jace has a brother and then when he’s like starting college his mom remarries and has his sister with his stepdad that he#haaaates#he hates visiting fallinel but he wants to get to know his sister#his dad also dies on an adventure during his college years#he comes back to an empty house because his brother just couldn’t#it’s the first time he’s really left to be the responsible one and he’s not bad at it but he’s so out of depths#he sells the house and starts couch surfing until he sees that Aguefort is hiring for a sorcerer teacher so he takes it#dimension 20#fantasy high junior year#d20 fhjy#fhjy#jace stardiamond

one of my favorite clark headcanons that i have (that is completely unsupported by canon) is that he's transgender by kryptonian standards. martha and jon kent raised him as a boy and as he grew up he never had any reason to doubt it at all, he was like yeah i'm a boy, makes sense. and then he gets to the fortress of solitude for the first time and it turns out how Gender works on krypton was just Different enough that clark doesn't really fit the kryptonian standards of whatever he was supposed to be. bonus points because this makes him feel like even more of an outsider as a kryptonian, even if he's the last one left.
#do i know what those kryptonian gender customs are? no and i kind of don't care to come up with them#just cuz that's not my favorite thing to do but someone else can if they like my idea#i just love the idea of 1) trans clark 2) clark discovering his heritage but also as he learns more about his heritage#realizing that because of how he was raised- and it was nobody's fault- even though it's the only explanation for why he's so different#from humans he still can't help but feel like he's not a real kryptonian either#brought to you by THIS STARTED AS A FUN HEADCANON FOR HIM TO BE TRANS IN A COOL ALIEN WAY#BUT TURNED OUT TO BE ACTUALLY PROJECTION OF SOME PERSONAL SHIT I HAVE ONLY CONSCIOUSLY THOUGHT ABOUT LIKE TWICE SO OOPS#bluebird.txt#superman#was watching superman 1978 and i don't have any real thoughts about it yet but i'm just rotating in my head#that jor-el said 'this is your home.' when describing krypton.#like. he's never been there. he can never go there. it doesn't exist anymore and he will be raised human.#he will be raised in a world that is so completely unlike his own and he will not grow up with as a kryptonian.#and yet jor-el says of krypton 'this is your home.'#like just give me a moment.#so interesting to me who considers who what. some guy in high school#told me i wasn't mexican because i din't recognize some candies my (cuban) teacher brought back when he visited mexico#he said i wasn't even latino#well first of all that guy was a first-class asshole seriously my kudos to him#for having such an impressive amount of hatred and unhappiness in his little soul#second of all. he didn't think i was latino. my own sister only calls me mexican when it's convenient for her#my parents are proud of their american children and in high school my mexican (as in grew up there) friend wa always proud#to call me a fellow mexican (or at least a chicana)#so i just find it so fascinating that in this movie jor-el says son you will never know your birthplace your parents's home firsthand#but it is your home.#my parents would never EVER call mexico my home i don't think they'd even call it THEIR home#i just. i'm thinking about it a lot.#high fives clark kent in child of immigrants and everything that means swag solidarity

B4 I actually watched stories and was just reading the events on the god forsaken fandom wiki I was pronouncing emu/nene as eemu/neenee in my head… I could say “I don’t know Japanese” as a reason but English also favors the [e] pronunciation of “e” vs [i] (i.e bed vs see) in situations like this. My excuse for emu is the bird but idk what happened with nene. I think im just stupid. Muscle memory phonics failed me. Child left behind. Girl you know how words like emulsify and never/vender are pronounced.
#I was also dropping the e in kanade/kohane but I can blame French for that.#I had a whole phonics thing in the tags and then tumblr deleted the post and I’m not rewriting it so instead you’re getting the scarier fact#that teachers are no longer teaching a phonetics based approach to learning to read#and instead emphasizing the uhhh. ‘use context clues to figure out what the sentence says’ approach.#& now kids Can’t Fuckin Read. ‘why is a large population of America semi illiterate’#ask George Bush. no kid left behind is actually leaving kids behind.#oh right the reason I made this post is because I kept calling emu weemu in my head & nene neeners so now I have to fight with my brain#about pronunciation. get rid of the nicknames u are fucking up.#mine

7 Days of Scarepairs: Blam | Blaine Anderson x Sam Evans (Glee) + “Vampire”
Requested by Anonymous
"I have to compel you. If anyone found out-"
Sam stared back at him, his eyes as big as saucers. "Who would believe me? I don't even think I believe me."
"Trust me," Blaine said gravely, "plenty of people around here would believe you, and that wouldn't end well. For anyone. It's not just me."
Sam got out of his chair. "Wait, there are others? Like, here? In Lima?"
Reluctantly, Blaine nodded. He knew shouldn't be telling him any of this. It was too much of a risk. He should compel him now, like Mr Schue told him to.
But then he caught a glimpse of Sam's face. He was grinning from ear-to-ear as he sank back into the chair and shook his head. He looked up at him.
"This is so cool."
"It's really not," Blaine tried to protest.
"Dude, you're a freaking vampire!" He glanced around them, his face taking on a more serious look as Blaine motioned for him to keep his voice down. "Sorry. It's just... I don't understand. You're this awesome, supernatural being with awesome powers. You're like a superhero."
Every disadvantage and negative side to it rolled right back down Blaine's throat. His mouth quirked and Sam's grin widened.
"I guess, in a way..." he said, his brow furrowing. "Wait, you like superheroes?"
"Are you kidding? I love them," Sam said with barely contained excitement but, to his credit, he managed to keep control of his volume. His eyes grew impossibly wider and he was out of his chair again, standing in front of him. "Could I be your human sidekick?!"
The answer to that question should, undoubtedly, be a resounding no. Letting him keep his memories was bad enough. But actually involving him in any of it? Mr Schue would never let it slide.
He opened his mouth to shoot him down, but... he just couldn't bring himself to do it. The truth was, it was a pretty lonely existence. He'd only been a vampire for two years, but he barely had anyone to talk to anymore. His parents didn't want to know him. It was better they forgot about him entirely and went on pretending he had actually died that night.
Even his brother was better off like that.
Sure, he had a few friends at Dalton, and they knew what it was like, but... he was still really lonely. They had all gotten used to in their own ways, but he never could. Mr Schue was always telling him he couldn't have human blood because of the ripper gene, so he couldn't exactly tag along with David and Jeff when would sneak out.
He never even talked to Kurt about it because he thought it might freak him out too much, with all the history between witches and vampires, and now he wasn't even there anymore anyway.
He felt completely alone, even in his own world.
But here was Sam, looking at him like he was the coolest person he had ever met. Asking to be his friend. He wasn't afraid of him or what he might do, not like everyone back at Dalton or Mr Schue.
"I'm sorry." He sighed as Sam's face fell. "It's too dangerous. I need to make you forget all of this."
Sam pressed his lips together and nodded. "Can I just ask one thing? Don't take everything away."
Blaine opened his mouth, already shaking his head, but Sam lifted his eyes to him, freezing him to the spot with his next words.
"Leave the part where we met today."
Sam took a deep breath and nodded one more time, letting him know he was ready, even if he wasn't really. And he wasn't the only one.
He couldn't do it. He couldn't make him forget.
Worse than that: he didn't want to.

Tbh a huge amount of the issues MHA has could have been fixed had Bakugo just been expelled from UA in the first season or not gotten in at all
#izuku's other friends like ochako tenya etc could have gotten more screentime and development#the todoroki arc wouldve had more space to flesh out all the siblings and give shouto a more obvious personality#the precedent of excusing abuse wouldnt be there so i think ppl would be less sympathetic to endeavour which is GROSS#aizawa and the rest of the ua staff look better as teachers as theyre not just letting a pr nightmare and bully run around unchecked#the 'bakusquad' can be given more space to be their own characters and bond wo being rotted by their attachment to bakugo#shinsou could have actual development instead of being one dimensional and annoying and grow into his potential as izuku's rival/foil#less bakugo screentime also means more time for the plot to develop#and im hoping the characters could develop their abilitie sin unique and more consistent ways wo the constant need to make bakugo the best-#screwing everything up#including izuku keeping his analysis abilities etc#thats just off the top of my head#izuku midoriya#bakugo katsuki#anti bakugo katsuki#anti bakugo#mha#my hero academia#mha critical#my hero academia critical

sometimes I run into discourse about The Odyssey vs. EPIC: The Musical and I get tired
this is why I think we need to start taking a more oral tradition approach to stories like the Odyssey tbh, and I'd argue stories in general
The original and the adaptation being different, or the characters being different, doesn't make one or the other Wrong.
EPIC isn't claiming to be a direct retelling of the Odyssey, and the Odyssey doesn't need to be put under a moral microscope just to prove that "Odysseus was a Bad Guy Actually i can't believe you like EPIC" or "The Actual moral of everything is This."
Analysis is good, but we don't have to do it to spite other people's enjoyment of a piece of art!
One of the most beautiful things about many oral traditions is that the story changes over time. It grows to fit the ideas and needs of the people it's being told to and the place it's being told in. Each storyteller remembers different details more vividly, or adds a little flair, or forgets a few words, or adds a few words, and it grows.
EPIC doesn't have to be the Odyssey, and the Odyssey doesn't have to be EPIC. Enjoy them both. Adaptations and spins off of stories aren't a bad thing in themselves, even if they're different.
Heck, the Odyssey was almost Definitely an adaptation, conglomeration, or re-telling of other stories that were told orally before it was written down. And I'd bet that it continued to evolve and change even after it was put to paper. I highly doubt The Odyssey the only version of this story there was, long before our time.
It's fine if you dislike one or the other in any adaptation! Hell knows I've absolutely despised some adaptations of media i enjoyed in the past. That's not a bad thing. But one story isn't objectively morally better or worse compared to another in adaptations.
Basically, my whole point is that both the Odyssey and EPIC are Great to me personally, but they aren't completely the same thing and that's what makes them great.
And I think people maybe need to be ok with that!
#i will admit though i was a little sad when Odysseus didn't torture Poseidon with his own trident the first time i read through the odyssey#but eh i enjoy it in epic and enjoy all of the awesome stuff the odyssey has to offer other than that!#it's ok guys#you don't have to prove which one is better they can both be good#or you can just dislike them#and that's okay#this was inspired by my 14 year old brother dunking on epic for not being completely accurate to the odyssey.#dude. do you even know how long the Odyssey is??? yeah some plot devices were changed because some parts were cut#and frankly things like them hiding under the sheep to escape polythemus probably just wouldn't fit into the songs lol#a musical is a very different format than a poetic epic orginally recited aloud so things are bound to change. my brother.#the audacity of this boy. he said it so condesendingly too#and then i caught him listening to the music later so who really won in the end lmao#and then spiralled into me starting to look for sources on the mindset of story changes in oral vs. written storytelling traditions#so that's an essay im writing when i head back to college after break lol#i can convince my indig studies teacher to let me write it for a grade I Know It#the odyssey#epic odysseus#epic the musical#epic the vengeance saga#epic#epic the musical ithaca saga#odyssey#odysseus#odysseus of ithaca

GMMTV 2025 Line Up P1
Ok I think I’ve recovered now from watching the whole thing live, and having rested and processed the first 10 trailers here’s what I’m most looking forward to:
1. Dare You To Death
With such a big cast and intriguing murder mystery, I wonder if the BL will end taking a bit of a back seat? Which would be fine for me as I’d be happy with a good plot and a just a little JoongDunk seasoning sprinkled on the top.
Anticipation rating: 7/10
youtube
2. Head 2 Head
I LOVED SeaKeen in Only Boo! and I’ve had a soft spot for Java since he was in ABAAB so I’m seated for this one. Fashion students who can see into the future better be gay as hell 🧵🏳️🌈🪡
Anticipation rating: 8/10
youtube
3. Burnout Syndrome
I’m here for The Pillars getting to be in a toxic love triangle. Nuchy and OffGun reunited! Emi and Thor also there!! Off naked!! Gun playing an emo twink!! So many reasons to sign me up!
Anticipation rating: 9/10
youtube
4. The Nanon One… yep I don’t care about that!
5. Whale Store xoxo
They had me as soon as Milk’s character talked about being a late 20-something! Thank you for letting them out of high school ! I really did not enjoy 23.5 so I’m happy to see MilkLove getting something more mature. Loved the period cramps rep too!
Anticipation rating: 7/10
youtube
6. Only Friends: Dream On
Look… I had a good time with Only Friends for the most part so I’m not hating on getting more messy gays (especially drama gays 🎭) fucking each other, and fucking each other over on my screen. I hope Boston gets to mess up a whole new friend group!
Anticipation rating: 8/10
youtube
7. That Summer
The first of the amnesia plots. I’ll watch WinnySatang in anything but I’m most excited about MondRyu as the side pair. A secret/closeted relationship sounds really interesting… if done well.
Anticipation rating: 7/10
youtube
8. My Romance Scammer
The noise I let out when I realised Ohm had been paired with Fluke!!! Look they created this one for me ok. Anyway as I initially screamed, this is what marriage equality is for!!!
Anticipation rating: 9/10
youtube
9. Melody of Secrets
This is everything I wanted for ForceBook! More memory loss here too.
Anticipation rating: 8/10
youtube
10. Love You Teacher
The third amnesia plot! Hopefully they handle this premise right. I will eat up watching an established couple navigating difficult situations though. Also this character looks perfect for Santa, so I’m sold.
Anticipation rating: 7/10
youtube

GIVE THOSE HEADCANONS OVER NEOW!!!! -Cupid <3
Yay!!! Happy Disability pride month gang! Have some head canons! (Some of these only really apply to the human versions I have of them so I’ll clarify when it does apply to them as objects aswell)
I’m mostly doing main characters like the teachers and the main three in this post but I’ll probably make one for side characters if anyone wants that :3
l Sketchbook l Uses crutches due to muscle weakness in their lower legs (<- Human) and Autism
l Tony l Cane user due to weak and frail bones, Visual impaired but refuses to use glasses they do use a monocle on occasion though, Autism, and Anger issues
l Shrignold l Autism and seasonal depression
l Colin l Visually impaired as a human and wears glasses (still wears glasses in object form but doesn’t technically need them) and Autism
l Steak l Missing his right eye after the electricity episode covers it up with a white eyepatch though
l Spinach can l Leg amputee, uses a wheel chair to get around (Human), Autism, adhd, and minor speech impediment
l Bread Boy l Autism, deaf and mute
(Fridge doesn't have any disabilities btw)
l Lamp l adhd and depression
l Briefcase l Visually impaired and uses glasses (canon) and autism
l Brendon l autism and depression
l Coffin l needs reading glasses (seemingly canon??), autism, ptsd and depression
(The twins also don’t have any disabilities)
l Warren l Autism and attachment issues
l Choo Choo l Cane user (Canon)
l Electracey l Autism and adhd
Main three!!!
l Yellow guy l Autism and adhd
l Duck l uses reading glasses, cane user due to chronic pain, autism and ocd
l Red guy l Autism and depression
Every character is neurodivergent!!!
#I’ve been doing a lot of research recently to make sure It can be proper representation#I only have autism and chronic pain and possible bpd though I haven’t gotten a proper diagnosis#I also like the yellow guy system head canon but I’m not a system so I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to properly represent it#Happy disability pride month guys!!!!#Your favs are neurodivergent#:3#dhmis#dhmis teachers#my followers waking up to see me posting another long ass post#dhmis headcanons#headcanons#paula the postbox!!!
