ya know something really funny I’ve realized, if you’re a neurodivergent mun, you will almost never be able to write your muse neurotypical even if they are. Especially if you’re autistic 💀

Unless you’re so amazing at blending in no one can tell you’re neurodivergent at all (and let’s be real, if that were possible we’d all get along in society way better than we do), you’re almost always gonna take things that happen in interactions the way you would in real life, missing ‘obvious’ things your muse wouldn’t, but you would.

And it works great when I write Al or Lucifer because the autism leaks into this autistic character, but I’m at a wild disadvantage when I’m writing idk someone super perceptive like Husk who wouldn’t miss this obvious cue or take a question in this way, but I do 😂

and sure, maybe some neurodivergent writers are REALLY good at separating how you write your muse, but in my experience with my neurodivergent friends I often see traits I know they have leak into their muses, and to be honest it’s adorable and heartwarming

We make our muses neurodivergent even if we don’t mean to fheifnkdnfd

☘ - Is there anything about Wesker you wish would've been expanded upon more by the games or by other media?

[His relationship with Alex - there's a lot of fan debate back and fourth about how much he interacted with either of them. A lot of people think he and Alex never knew each other and yet Alex has a portrait depicting them both as adults and refers to Wesker as her brother. I feel like the sentiment in the way she talks about him implies she and Albert were closer than fans or existing lore would suggest.

Maybe not inseparable as they lived busy lives and were under Umbrella's thumb - but there clearly was some recognition there that they saw each other as family.

I don't think Wesker would pose for a painting with Alex if he didn't think of her as somebody important to him. I don't think Alex would insist Albert was her brother unless she truly felt they were. Considering how calculating and overt both were about seeing themselves as above human weakness - indentifying each other as family feels deliberate.

I wish Capcom would expand more on them. Hell do a game where they actually interact - develop they relationship.]

[take-ya-to-the-ghey-bar]

really random thing, that i wanna mention but because dash chatter reminded me of things, and a muse i haven't thought about in years--

but mun fun fact: ages ago i actually had a muse who fell under the disability umbrella-- a youngish (he was somewhere in his late teens, i think--) boy named Kennedy, or Kenny for short-- and while i can't recall if i ever gave any backstory for his trauma, or what it was, i do recall that he was mostly mute-- communicating mainly via writing or sign-- and of course body language cues, but i feel that bit kinda goes unsaid--

[manufactoredxbyxdesign]

how does your muse handle grief?

[Wesker doesn't.

Or at least I don't think he handles it well.

He has had very few attachments over his adult life that have been impactful enough to cause him to grieve those people after they died. I think the only three people he truly missed were the Birkin's (Annette and William) and his sister Alex - there's some indication in the way his messages are written in the series that suggests he wanted to save the Birkin's and get them out of the city. While I don't think anyone else was aware of it, he probably did mourn the fact that they both died instead.

With Alex it was more of a grief associated with the fact that they were separated when they were young and that they never really regained their closeness.

In both cases Wesker handled the grief like it was something ugly. Something he needed to "clean up" within himself quickly before anyone else saw it.

I don't think he cried - I doubt he's ever actually cried in his whole adult life. But he likely just shut down and went catatonic for a few days after the Birkin's deaths. They fate likely hovered in his thoughts even while he was working on his own plans and made him more withdrawn and quiet.

Wesker grieves alone. He crawls into dark rooms, he sits alone and just processes his thoughts quietly. Because of that I don't think he ever really "gets over' it when he looses someone - I think he just learns to push down the pain and pretends that it isn't there until he's tricked himself into believing it.]

she is too nice, like if it weren't for the piercings and the tattoos, i'm sure she would be the girl you can bring to meet your parents (or even with her piercings and tattoos if your parents aren't that judgemental)

[metalfeather]

I really wanna delve more into Carter's past incarnations / sensory memory tbh it feels like it'd be fun

[rain-filled-garden]

well, it seems like 7am brain has decided now is a good time to remind me that i really should update some of my muse detail pages, to at least include everyone's ages--

───〃★ didn't see that coming? ೃ⁀➷˚ ♡ ⋆｡

✧ summary: kissing them unexpectedly ft. Haruka Sakura, Hajime Umemiya, Hayato Suo, Ren Kaji, Mitsuki Kiryu, Akihiko Nirei, Chika Takiishi, & Jo Togame

✧ content: fluff, gn!reader, OOC (especially w/Chika's since I haven't read the whole manga yet), lots of pure kisses, established!relationship

✦ a/n: no more screen time of my beloveds till next year 😢

— HARUKA SAKURA | You were at his house, feeding him food and medicine to tend to his fever. He kept insisting that he was fine and was able to take care of himself, but you wouldn't budge no matter how much he argued back. Due to his sickened condition, his energy to complain was quickly drained out. In the end, he let you do your thing and even tuck him to bed. You watched him close his eyes, cool cloth placed on his forehead as his brows let loose and his breathing calming down. The sight made you feel slightly more at ease. Before deciding to leave, you placed a quick peck on his forehead and whispered, “Get well soon, sweetheart.” His fever rose higher the next day.

— HAYATO SUO | He was always the one to initiate something unexpected, which made you determined to get back at him for once. You walked home with him holding an umbrella under the rain, and you saw how he was focused on the road. Seeing the clear opportunity, you went on your tippy toes and squeezed your eyes shut, kissing his cheek before looking away flustered. His eyes went wide for a moment, before smiling and retorting, “My, my. I see you've gotten quite bold, my dear.” Although he was smooth with it, he internally admitted your attempt in catching him off guard was successful.

— REN KAJI | A pout has been tugging his lips all morning. Ever since you came along with him on patrol, you felt the grumpy aura he emitted despite him acting all nonchalant with it. Little did you know that he was sulking. When he came to pick you up this morning, he reached out a hand to hold yours when you turned back to retrieve something; when he considered to lend you his headphones, you bumped into Sakura and the gang; when he reattempted to hold your hand, Lisa came jumping into your arms. He was fuming. Thankfully, at the end of the day, you realized. “Ren?” He looked at you silently, waiting for you to continue as he rolled the sucker in his mouth. “Can you take the candy out real quick, please?” He was confused, but complied either way. With that, you leaned in and pressed a chaste kiss on his lips, before pulling back with a fond smile. He was confused yet again, but this time, he wrapped his arms around your waist and nuzzled into the crook of your neck, relishing in the feeling of finally being able to hold you.

— HAJIME UMEMIYA | Today was a gardening date, where you'd help him out with his garden at the rooftop. Like usual, he proudly exclaims how the plants have grown fast and healthy. It was like seeing a proud father boasting about his children. His smile when he held up two pots of tomatoes was brighter than the sun that was shining upon the both of you, and it was endearing to the point where you couldn't help it anymore. You quickly cupped his face and pressed your lips against his before pulling back and saying, “My sweet, gardener boyfriend.” He immediately placed down the pots, almost dropping them before swooping you up in his arms and twirling you in the air.

— JO TOGAME | You looked up at the sky, hearing cracks of fire as it bloomed into colorful sparks. After strolling through stalls and winning prizes, the festival's main occasion finally made its arrival. Turning to your boyfriend next to you, you tugged at his sleeve and called out to him quietly, “Jo…” gesturing that you had something to say. Just as he leaned down to listen, you gently pulled his face and connected your lips to his. He didn't see that coming, but he wasn't going to complain as he wasted no time and melted into the kiss– pulling you closer by the waist and savoring this sweet moment under the flashing fireworks that lit up the sky above.

— MITSUKI KIRYU | Nothing wrong with taking a break from your small screen gadgets and entertain yourself with something slightly more traditional. Other than the games on his phone, Kiryu was surprisingly good at the ones at the arcade as well. From basketball toss to Pac-Man, you both competed on who could earn the most tickets. Of course, he was taking the lead. He was currently focused on the spinning light, calculating the right moment to press the button and hit the jackpot. When suddenly you leaned over and kissed him on the cheek, causing him to lose focus and accidentally push down the button, missing the awaited jackpot. “Hey, that was cheating.” He still won in the end, but gave his tickets to you anyway.

— CHIKA TAKIISHI | He always looked so aloof– like there were no literal fucks he'd seriously give, and everything others say were just a broken TV's buzzing. Oddly enough, you found that trait to be adorable. Sometimes, you find yourself gazing and staring at his majestic self as he looks off into somewhere or nowhere, holding the familiar empty gaze you've grown used to. He was like an innocent, introverted child during a family gathering– the ones who choose to space off and act cold to those who tried to approach or tease him. The sight was so irresistibly cute, you couldn't help yourself but to squeeze his cheeks between your palms and press a quick kiss on his cheek. “You're so CUTE!” He remained unfazed and gave no reaction, but slithered an arm around your waist and pulled you closer.

— AKIHIKO NIREI | Seeing and hearing him yap about the things he took interest in has always been a trait of his that you found endearing. And right now, you couldn't help but marvel at the way he was so passionate about something to the point of writing it down in his notebook. You listened to it all– nodding and throwing in responses here and there to keep the conversation going. In the middle of his babbling, you leaned forward and gave a quick peck on his forehead. “And then what happened?” you asked innocently afterwards like it was nothing. Meanwhile he was left a stuttering, blushing, and questioning mess of a nerd.
