different kinds of tics
Tics can divided into few categories: simple/complex and motor/vocal.
Motor tics are movements. Examples: blinking, shoulder shrugging, making faces or gestures, etc.
Vocal tics are sounds. Examples: meowing, barking, saying words or sentences, whistling, etc.
sometimes it can be hard to differentiate between them. I have a tic in which i click my tongue. It is a movement, but there is also a sound to it. I'm not sure whether it's the movement or the sound that makes the pre-tic tension go away.
Complex tics involve a lot of different muscles. They can appear as something done intentionally, but they are never intentional. Examples: saying words or frazes, making gestures, jumping, grimacing, etc
Simple tics are quick, and, well, simple. Examples: winking of an eye, tensing of a specific muscle, sniffing, simple "woo", or a similar sound, etc
Different types of tics can feel very different. They may alleviate the pre-tic tension in different ways. For example i need to hear the whistle in order for the tension to disappear, but I don't need to hear my meowing for the tension to go away.
I may not even notice some of my simple motor tics. but sometimes there is a big cumulation of them and it's awful. Some of the more complex ones feel like i'm being controlled by some alien life force or sth. And some of my complex tics are chill, and idc. It really depends on the day, on what I'm doing and what my tics are at the moment.

the last two paragraphs are based purely on my own experiences. Other people with tics will probably experience things differently.

if you keep eating from the trash, you'll get food poisoning. most of the food is probably rotten, that's why it's in the trash there's also a possibility that a maus got it's saliva all over what you're eating you could also get a virus if the food's contaminated with malware because someone sick ate some of it

Random headcanon that is simultaneously kind of funny but also makes a lot of sense.
Wesker with auditory processing disorder. He hears everything way too well and this translates to not understanding what someone is telling him because they were facing away, not enunciating enough and there was a fan on in the next room over and two clocks, which aren’t synchronized, ticking in the room they’re in and down the hall.
Having to ask Chris to please repeat what he said when they were discussing something on a smoke break because a “car drove past” and he only caught the last half of that.
Having to hide the lab’s clock in a soundproof box to carry a conversation with William when tired because it was too loud and Will was mumbling.
Also, sometimes your other senses mess with your hearing when you have auditory processing disorder. And he likely has very sensitive eyes so…
Having to tell Excella to wait a minute because the lights are too bright for him to hear anything, dimming them or putting his sunglasses back on and asking her to repeat herself.
Not actually hearing much of anything Chris is saying while in the volcano because it’s too hot and bright and he can hear the rocks melting and Uroboros squirming.
(In DBD) not being able to hear anything above the sounds of the generators during a match. Some maps being too bright to hear the survivors correctly.
If he wasn’t as prideful as he is he’d probably tell people he’s hard of hearing and needs them to enunciate and speak clearly when talking to him.

I had a really hard time picking the last six favorites for this list because there are just so many pokemon I like! After seeing @haveyouusedthispokemon share a lot of these polls, I wanted to include more of my less popular favs like the Chikorita line and Klinklang, but most of the pokemon I ultimately chose made it in for sentimental reasons.
In no particular order, here are some honorable mentions for the pokemon that just barely didn't make the cut: Farigiraf, Mega Absol, Espeon, Dusknoir, Slither Wing, Alolan Ninetales, Sneasel, Xerneas

What’s Tic’s and Tac’s type?
hmm. that's a hard one
these mens aren't picky
Tac likes someone he can easily fluster, but if you can fluster him, he's putty in your hands. :3 (his Grillby's one of the few that can fluster him with flirts, most ppl will have to get vry sweet with him to get him all red (example: kissing his bite scares))
Tic likes a big sweetheart (and a big flirt), one of his main receiving love languages probably being words of affirmation.
physical appearance wise, they don't really care. in monster culture, it's not common to care about that, with everyone looking so different.
tho Tac might have a bit more fun teasing someone shorter than him, and both might like soft and squishy skin, and soft hair, in contrast to their bone.
(suggestive bits under th cut 👀)
ofc Tac will have plenty of fun with someone who's already easily submissive, but he might have even more fun with someone feisty, someone who plays hard to get, the challenge of getting the stubborn ones flustered/submissive being a fun and rewarding one. (and if someone manages to dominate him, i mean.. he's not complaining. 👀)
Tic does not mind a submissive partner, however he is a lot more receptive to a dominant one than Tac. He's likely to be the one in bindings. (also.. might be turned on by a more. scary/intimidating person.)

confused how I fit into the spectrum of intelligence and ability
I relate much to borderline ID experiences but have always been considered exceptionally smart good with words pattern recognition detail oriented etc etc
feels like I'm smart only in hyperspecific situations like with special interests. bad at math bad at communication bad at movement bad at thinking
know I have dyslexia dyscalculia autism tics but don't really fit with any
and system make it more difficult to determine place (alters different ages mentalities skills)
considered savant before but not really fit that either

Hello! First of all, Tic is so cute I would just love to give him a hug! But also have a tiny question.. How does it feel when a tic is about to happen? I could imagine that sometimes it's hard to register before it happens, but I also know you can supress them a litte? So I'm very curious!
Tumblr media
(U get litol Tic hug, bc I felt like it. :3)
Ok, so there is a very specific feeling/sensation, which may be hard to explain, but the closest comparison I can think of is like. the feeling you get before a yawn? but a bit more? tingly?? Most ppl compare tics to sneezes, but I think at least the feeling itself is closer to the urge to yawn. It's also more. in your body, or specifically the part of your body that want's to tic.
(I hope I'm explaining that well. I don't often take conscious notes of how these things feel lol.)
And yes, you'd be right about that. It is sometimes hard to register before it happens. Sometimes we might not even feel it at all before it happens, or it can also be just to sudden to catch.

I forgot we get weird muscle tremors (and a tic in the same muscle) in our throat sometimes but I also somehow didn't realise those muscles can spasm in a way that makes you feel like you're being strangled even though you can still breathe and swallow perfectly fine. what the actual fuck
