Hii!! I was wonderinh if you could do Platonic!Doey(Matthew,Kevin and Jack) x Reader who is dyslexic, Its okay if not :].
oh lord yall I just realized I haven’t been posting in a hot minute- anyway! Dw anon you have picked the most dyslexic person the request this to since I have dyslexia💔💔🥀🥀
ok before anything if u don’t know what dyslexia is just click on this -> dyslexia website yippee
Doey(souls) with a reader that has dyslexia📖❌
Tumblr media
He’s very “hehe” about it, but like on a good day if that makes sense??
Like, yall in Safe Haven bc you(ur the player) needed a rest and Poppy needs to open that flappy thing on her face to express her opinion for 6 minutes straight, and when she’s done all that comes out of your mouth is,
“Safe Heavens pretty nice compared to everywhere else huh?”
“Safe what?”
On a good day, he’d be like “hehehaha you said heaven not haven”, and on a day where he’s just not in the mood for mistakes he’d internally sigh(Matthew) or make a sly remark(Kevin).
Though after a few mess ups like that, aka reading signs incorrectly, spelling words on the wall REALLY wrong while drawing with the smaller toys, and writing bad as dab and poppy as qopqy, he began to wonder.
Personally, I don’t think Matthew knows wtf dyslexia is because basing on what the orphans learned in during school time it was NOT coming close to any disorders or how different people read/learn.
So building up the courage he eventually found it in himself to ask you about it.
“Heya, there pal.. I’ve been, uhm noticing things recently with your reading and some writing. I was just wondering, if uh, you’ve been stressed about the whole situation going on with the prototype and that’s why-”
“Dyslexia😐”
“What?”
“It’s called dyslexia, Doey.”
He confronts you about it like you don’t know yourself😔
But since you’re the sweetest person alive you so graciously explain to him, and I mean that in the most vague way possible.
“It’s like…uh, people who have trouble reading, or reading aloud. Oh and spelling, spelling’s hard and weird.”
“How is it weird?”
“IT JUST IS.”
After that he leaves you alone on the topic for the most part, only subtlety guiding you towards the right direction when you need help writing or spelling.
He doesn’t want you to feel bad about it though! He thinks that you’re smarter than most due to your will to overcome and stay in line with other people your age for the subject.
Matthew cares the most, he’s curious on how your brain pictures letters and how they’re written or spoken. But most of the time he doesn’t ask his thoughts aloud. He’s afraid that you’d be too embarrassed or ashamed to answer him with full honesty. He tries his best to quietly show you that he doesn’t mind or care about it, but honestly it just kinda looks like he’s pitying you and it just makes your face go from 🤨 to 😑.
Kevin cares, uh, in a completely different way than Matthew does. He doesn’t bother asking questions on anything and doesn’t even bother asking what dyslexia means. The only thing he cares about is that he can read faster than you and can call you a slow reader or a bad speller. Now he himself can say those things straight to your face you know? Butttttttt if he ever hears you say that about yourself or someone else says it to you, he’ll go cuckoo for coco puffs ykyk-?
Jack thinks of you no different, like, “oh you can’t read that good? That’s okay I can teach you!” “You don’t know why your mind messes up your p and q’s? That’s fine let’s write them a lot together!” Probably can’t even pronounce the word correctly to begin with either. But even though he can’t bring himself to think deeply about it, he still randomly asks you questions about it. Though they’re all just simple ones, nothing too deep.
