#please don't bully me for having a neurodivergent headcanon

[rxttenl0ser]

Headcanons/Info abt Matthew Patel and Keith Lief (self-insert/OC)!

ship name: DramaQueen

emoji combo: 🎭🌈

(I apologize if I get anything wrong)

Matthew Patel HCs (24 y/o, he/him)

Was raised in the USA but his parents are from Bangladesh

Is fluent in bangla (bengali)

daddy issues, that's why he's GAY /j

no but fr his father cheated on his wife with some chick, his mother has not recovered since

neither has Matthew he was like fucking 14 when this happened

anyways he was in drama club in high school and always got bit parts like "side character 5" or "tree 2"

was always salty about it

reasonable crashout

he loves reading, HATES writing

MCR fan all the way you will not change my mind

and Evanescence too

probably had a goth phase

questioned his gender for a little bit

but turns out hes just a bisexual cis man

good for him

he was also bullied relentlessly

made him turn to not so good coping mechanisms

I'll elaborate later

had too many piercings as a teen

they're all healed now, unfortunately

neurodivergent, not entirely sure what

maybe autism??

he definitely has abandonment issues, attachment issues, insecurities, and intrusive thoughts though

someone hug him please

i KNOW he has some sort of complex i need to FIGURE IT OUT

⊹ 𓂃 ʚ　✦ ◞　꒰ 🎭 ꒱　◟ ✦　ɞ 𓂃 ⊹

Keith Lief Info (23 y/o, he/it)

raised in Norway for a little bit, completely forgotten his language as soon as he stepped foot in America

somehow knows Latin and Bangla?????? idk

scene king if that wasn't obvious enough

had blue hair and pronouns in high school

has always been scene he will never stop

was in the same drama club as Matthew but he wasn't an actor he was a set designer

he's actually really good at it

also was bullied relentlessly

also has horrible coping skills

loves writing and reading

likes all kinds of music except pop

had all the phases. we don't speak of them.

took him a little bit but he figured out he was a transmasc androgynous gay man

might change though idk

has too many piercings for an adult

unreasonable crashout

he will get upset over ANYTHING

that might be because hes autistic or because of his BPD

either way holy shit

unemployed at the moment, but he is searching (lies)

his parents SUCK.

his mother is a guilt tripping childish "woke" bitch with bipolar disorder and his father is a physically abusive narcissistic absent piece of shit conservative with ptsd

okay maybe im projecting too much but you get the gist

ahem

anyways

⊹ 𓂃 ʚ　✦ ◞　꒰ 🌈 ꒱　◟ ✦　ɞ 𓂃 ⊹

DramaQueen Info

okay so i have two different stories for how they met but I'm gonna focus on SPTO so

they met on the set of the musical, Keith was the set designer and Matthew was, y'know, the star

they didn't talk much during the making and preparation, but after the musical, specifically at the after-party, is when they began talking more

and more..

okay they kissed at the party

sparks happened.

they didn't talk much in high school, but Matthew did have a major crush on him

Keith knew Matthew but never noticed the crush thing

oblivious FUCK

sorry anyways after the kiss they went on a walk together and talked about it and wanted to see how they felt

they agreed upon trying the dating thing out and as soon as their first date ended they both knew they were in love

but they were both too scared to say it (Keith said it first)

that's all i really got so far for then

i will take questions (if no one asks me about them i will kill a hostage)

[octoagentmiles]

about me!! yeah :)

name: Miles!

pronouns: they/them. I prefer gender neutral or masculine language. (mx./mr., sir, etc.)

funky brain go- *incomprehensible jargon and mechanical screeching*: a lot of this fandom is neurodivergent, so I want to share that I am autistic, have ADHD, dyscalculia, and anxiety. Many of these things affect the timeliness, or other aspects, of my posts or responses.

I don't want to share my age publicly, but I want to state that folks of all ages are welcome here! Please note though, that some of my content may involve slightly more mature themes, such as swearing (not from me directly, but from reblogs, memes, audios used over videos, etc.), and sometimes angsty topics discussing headcanons and theories related to mental illness or trauma. I will never post anything ns\ft. I will always add CWs and TWs to my posts; if I miss one, please don't be afraid to let me know, or request anything specific!

favourite character: Barnacles 🛞💙

(VERY honourable mentions: Tweak 🔧💚, Natquik/Tracker ❄️🤍, and Kwazii/CJ/Pete 🏴‍☠️🧡)

posts I make: character/episode analyses, random observations/thoughts, funnies/jokes/memes, headcanons/theories, videos/edits, etc.

favourite GBR song(s): Pirate Pie and Briney Blue. Kwazii go prr <3

favourite special: Great Arctic Adventure

favourite season: all of them 4th and 5th

go listen to my Octonauts playlist >:)

"I sent an ask and it's been a while lmao": I struggle with executive dysfunction really badly, but I will get to you eventually. I pinky-promise. /gen

"Where's your askbox?"

ask/dni rules under cut:

(the block button is my dearest sweetest bestest friend <3 so read carefully lmao)

(There are "\"s through some words, so that this post isn't filtered for people who have them blocked.)

Please DON'T ask me shipping questions. This includes my opinions on certain ships, what I ship or don’t, prompts or requests implying certain ships, etc. I know that shipping is fun for a lot of people, but publicly talking about it triggers my anxiety, so I’d rather not. Thank you for understanding.

Side note: Please DON'T TAG ANY of my posts as #ship, unless explicitly stated otherwise with a "#tag however you wish" or "#interpret how you wish". It's rare that I use these tags, but if I do, it's fair game. If you leave comments on my posts or in my inbox about shipping, I will not respond to them, and I'll probably remove them.

Side note²: I don't like pros\hippers. Go away. If I see ANY pros\hip content or support of such content on your blog AT ALL you will instantly be sentenced to life of a block without trial. No excuses, no second chances. ❌

Keep it family friendly. Meaning: No swearing or usage of slurs (even if you don’t know it’s a slur, or if you personally can/have reclaimed it, I will delete your ask/reply, and block you. the word “queer” is fine.), no references to or specific asks about dr*g use or alc*hol, no lemony or sugg\estive material, no graphic viole\nce, go\re, or inju\ry. This applies to comments on my posts, as well.

No queer\phobia (this includes gatekeeping), no rac\ism or xeno\phobia, no able\ism. (or any other kind of -isms, if they ever come up). Don't ever send me hate speech, dis\course, or bullying, regarding myself or others. It's pointless, will be deleted on sight, and I may block you. Go eat a snickers and think about your life choices.

If you really want to ask something that might imply one of the above, please put CWs and TWs* at the beginning of your ask; and be very clear that what you're sending in is a genuine question*, headcanon, or whatever else it may be. (*If it's a question, I may respond privately.)

Also remember that I can decide to just,, not answer something, even if it follows the rules. Usually I’ll do this if I’m not sure how to answer an ask, like, if I’m not knowledgeable enough on the subject, or it references a non-octonauts piece of media that I’m not a fan of, or it features a weird specific trigger/squick of mine that you would have no way of knowing about. Either way, if you’re sitting in your room staring at the wall and you randomly think to yourself, “Hey... my ask never got answered.......” that could be why.

I welcome angst concepts with open arms! But again, please use CW/TWs, and refer to the previous rule’s “no graphic viole\nce” note. If you’ve been here a while, you’ll know I love some good emotional angst~ (high school english teacher voice: "in writing, that's called ✨catharsis!✨")

...UNLESS it’s just a case of Funky Brain Syndrome (executive dysfunction, or good ol' anxiety). In that case, I promise it's not personal, and I am sincerely sorry for the delay—please continue being patient 🙏, and take this lollipop for your troubles: 🍭

———

*Quick glossary:

a CW warns for content that someone may not want to see or hear, for any reason. (examples: viole\nce, ns\ft, certain people or topics, phobias, squicks or triggers: see final note.)

a TW warns for content that may be triggering for someone to see or hear. (examples: flash\ing, eye\strain, unr\eality, vents, tics, certain topics, words and/or phrases, or phobias.)

a squick is something that may make someone highly uncomfortable to see, hear, or read about; it's different from a trigger in the sense that they're usually more mild, and less likely to cause real damage or harm, but you'd still prefer to avoid them nonetheless. (examples: they can be anything, but are often things like certain tropes, topics, ships, or milder phobias, secondhand embarrassment, etc.)

The two words CW + TW can, and very often do, go hand-in-hand; but the difference can matter sometimes—so can the difference between a squick and a trigger.

[thecipherfamily]

Full rules {so far}:

•° SFW blog, therefore NO NSFW. Mild flirting is fine.

•° {Will think of of an OOC tag soon- for now, it's just 'ooc'}

•° Mun much prefers reblog roleplays over DMs

•° Moderately dark themes allowed {but no heavily sexual themes, r*pe, inc*st, etc. I don't judge, it's just not my thing}

•° Swearing/cursing is fine- just no slurs, or you will be blocked

•° Many muses may have trauma- e.g. things such as William's punishments {not usually sexual; but he was left with physical and some psychological damage}, Bill's many hidden regrets/crimes, Mabel and Dipper's school life {bullies}, etc. Please let me know if you need this tagged or want me to avoid directly mentioning it as much as possible. Don't be afraid to ask me to avoid/tag something with a tw, no matter how silly you think it is

--

•° If I forget to respond to an ask, tell me! Neurodivergency can be annoying sometimes, so I might just need reminding. Other times, I may just not know what to respond with {it's not the other person's fault- blame it on my ASD and horrible social skills} and would be ever so grateful for a "hint" or suggestion

•° Note: I have other things outside of roleplay/Tumblr and so may take a while to respond. I also regularly get caught up in executive dysfunction, unfortunately.

•° So, expect slow-ish replies.

•° Multimuse.... kinda? Will & Bill are the mains/"hosts" on this blog, but I can play Kill, Jill, Tad if asked and if I like the idea.

•° Please ask first before starting crossovers. They tend to make me uncomfortable

•° 🙅‍♀️No Undertale mentions in RP please 🙅

•° Ships are fine. OCs are fine (selective). Self-inserts are okay. For BillDip/WillDip, MaBill, MaWill, or the like, no-one is to be under the ages of 18. 20/21 would be better though. If you try to ship child!Dipper with Bill on this blog, you will be permanently blocked. Platonic/friendship bond in that case {similar to in Demonic Guardians AU}, only, and ask first. Otherwise it would make me deeply uncomfortable and you'll be blocked straight away

•° You don't have to match my length of writing, and unfortunately, I won't always match yours. If I feel like writing a lot, then I will. If I don't, then I won't. I'm not making RPs into a chore anymore. Don't feel pressured into writing long stuff either. If I write two paragraphs and you write two sentences, that's A-okay :)

•° Semi-literate only please. As in, full sentences at least {so not just "*they smile* *hold hands*" and instead, "they smiled, and then reached out to hold hands", or some slightly shorter variant} and some form of grammar would be appreciated

•° As long as you use paragraphs and separate sentences/paragraphs for new speakers, then I'm mostly fine with any layout(s). I may reach out to you if I was having any issues reading it, though

•° You don't have to use images or Picrews or pictures just because I like to. Only if you want to.

•° OT3 ships are okay, depending on what is is {e.g. Bill×Dipper×Will- where Bill and Will are each both involved with Dipper, but not with each other}

•° Plot or no plot, that is the question! ...The answer is, I don't really mind. Starters are a good go-to option if you're stuck, though.

•° Note: Feel free to tag me on starter lists or tag me on a start post.

•° Muses are very headcanon-based. If something confuses you, just ask a question- I don't bite! In fact, I enjoy answering questions about my versions of the characters.

•° DNI if racist, homophobic, far right, a bigot, 30+, etc.

•° You can always send me memes/random things for either me/my muses to react to :)

•° If something on your blog makes me uncomfortable, then I will soft block you, but please don't take this personally. It's likely to just be that your blog topic/theme has something (e.g. a topic) that I don't want to interact with/see

•° Will add more if needed

Hey, I know that people often have quite mixed opinions about this, but I was wondering if, in your opinion, Near shows signs of being somewhere on the autism spectrum. As a guy on the spectrum myself, I always saw a bit of myself in Near and even L to a lesser extent, but I don't know how much of that is me seeing what I want to vs. things that are actually there, even if it most likely wasn't done intentionally. Sorry if you don't like these types of questions, I just figured I'd ask.

Haha, gosh I don’t mind you asking, anon!! That said, I feel like answering this might get me in trouble b/c the topic is a sensitive one, so I’ll just preface my response with this: I genuinely have no interest in taking something that is important to other people away from them. There are a lot of sweet folks out there who take inspiration from Near by viewing him through the lens of autism, and are empowered by that. There is nothing wrong with that and if it’s something that gives you hope or joy, please keep doing it. I was simply asked to play devil’s advocate in providing an opinion and that’s what this is about. 

I think it’s impossible to say decisively whether or not Near has autism. That’s down to .a couple of different factors – most crucially, we simply have no idea what Near was like as a child. In other words, we have no real insight from the text as to whether Near’s behaviors was present at birth (ie. suggestive of autism) or if they were learned adaptive behaviors to external circumstances. 

As an example from within Death Note – let’s just take a look at Mikami. As an adult. he’s a social recluse who lives an extremely rigid and structured life and also engages in somewhat repetitive behaviors (sakujo etc). If we left it at simply that, it might raise some suspicion for potential autism, but when you look into his backstory, we see that he was extremey social as a child, and that a lot of his rigidity specifically comes from attitudes he had in middle school that were in direct response to the bullying and harassment he endured. He enforces a hyperstriuctured lifestyle on himself because he has set the narrative in his head that his behavior is “good” and separates him from those he views as “unworthy.”  That backstory dramatically alters the framework from which you’d view Mikami 

But with Near this isn’t really as clear. We don’t know what happened in Near’s life that led to the death of both of his parents. We don’t know what his life with his parents was like, or how they treated him. We don’t know what his life was after their deaths and prior to his arrival at the Wammy’s orphanage. We don’t know if he was in a stable foster care situation or being shuffled around from place to place – and so on and so forth. All of these factors that are complete mysteries play pivotal roles in the developing mind of a child and depending on what kind of environment Near was in, he just may not have been adequately socialized in childhood and learned a lot of self comforting behaviors like hair twirling, surrounding himself with toys and so on.Though these things may look quite similar to someone who has autism, the reason they exist are substantially different. Hell, it’s even perfectly plausible that Near’s just a person who’s a little on the blunt side who likes what he likes/doesn’t give a damn what other people think about it and has a fear of planes. That’s really not that unreasonable either. 

At the end of the day, it all just solidly depends on what exactly you headcanon for Near’s past. Canon doesn’t rule out autism, but it doesn’t exclude other possibilities either. If you headcanon that Near was born neurodivergent, then you’d argue he’s autistic – but nothing in canon would irrefutably support or invalidate it. If you headcanon Near became the way he is, canon would again neither irrefutably support or invalidate it. Personally I’ve seen interpretations of Near where he is interpreted as autistic and have seen interpretations where Near is not autistic and have enjoyed both takes on his character.

On a somewhat tangential note, I agree with the last thing you said. Any inferences that could be made about Near’s autism I think are entirely coincidental as Ohba doesn’t really seem to care about portraying neurodivergence in a way that’s nuanced or respectful. I’m pretty damn sure from an authorial intent pov, Ohba just wanted to give Near some unique “quirks” just like L and Mello had their own. That’s not to say people shouldn’t headcanon Near as autistic (b/c honestly, fuck authorial intent), but to say that people should be careful before crediting Ohba for things he didn’t actually do.

Huh...

Someone actually messaged me to apologize for wishing me dead for having fantasy headcanon ideas that have existed forever. That's new. Cool.

Rock on, you funky less lethal mindset.

Let people have their headcanons, don't like don't read, if it's not causing direct harm please stop yelling at it, this fiction is not the reality you think it is, please stop deliberately reading about things you hate, remember to tag everything, it's going to exist despite your hate, try not to bully people for writing and reading things, it's easier on our mental health to breathe and scroll past, etc etc etc

I remember the early days when entire fandoms would get shut down, not just niche parts. The freedoms fic writers have currently consistently astounds me.

If I come across a squick, a thing I hate, it's on me to take a deep breath and look away, it always has been. We don't shove our ideas forcibly at people and we don't harrass people for having ideas and kinks. Fandom is a fucking joy and a gift we've worked hard at for decades-

...and yes I'm gonna say it: most fandoms wouldn't even be here to walk these paths without the grown ass creative adults who paved those paths with fan theories that today you might threaten to break kneecaps over. Most of them were autistic and otherwise neurodivergent women, queer folks of all kinds including asexuals, non-binary folks, POC. I am grateful.

I'm not grateful when it's used as an excuse to fling around threats, to harrass. Especially within fandoms with nonhuman characters. None of it is real, and making hateful threats doesn't make the headcanons go away.

Various Trolls: Ugh, you quietly like this headcanon I think is terrible, yet you follow and like people who hate this headcanon! And I want to hate you and beat you up with a sword, but you never actually talk about it, so I don't know if I can justify blocking you. But anyway how dare you, you obviously are the absolute worst, although I can't really see a reason to report you, so I guess I'll just hate you and hope you die.

Me: ...congratulations, you have explained the thing to yourself, you didn't need my help. Here, let me make it easy for you to block me.

Do you have any headcanons for Lawrence or Strade?

me and my friend actually did this silly nsfw alphabet thing with lawstrade not too long ago! I did my part for 🫶💖Strade💖🫶 (obviously) so here are my favourite bits:

he has socks filled with dried up sperm under his bed that he doesn't throw out for years

he never ever washed his private parts

he needs frequent stimulation otherwise he gets depressed (i. e. agressive)

he has hypersexuality

he was diagnosed with ASPD in his teenage years while he was still living with his family which classifies him as neurodivergent

I also personally think he's a social outcast because he stinks
