"i can take care of myself" <- girl who absolutely fucking cannot

Language barriers in Whump are still on my mind. Specifically, during or right after Whumpee is rescued by Caretaker.

When Caretaker tries to dress their wounds, Whumpee thinks it’s another attempt to harm them. So, Caretaker tries to calm them down using slow gestures, or demonstrating their actions before they get anywhere near Whumpee. They try to introduce themself, or to learn Whumpee’s name, and they have to hope all of this is enough to get the message—I’m trying to help you—across.

Sometimes I get stuck in this very specific rut of executive dysfunction, and I know for a fact that having a caretaker dom who would help talk me through my tasks on bad days would be lifechanging for me. But instead I have no dom and just this stupid ass developmental disability that makes me periodically unable to function like a real human being

"omg adults who watch bluey or pokemon are so cringey thats not normal, what freaks, they should get a job already instead of posting dumb headcanons online" real quick how do you feel about autistic adults or adults with down syndrome. or adults who have mental disabilities in general. particularly ones who have been into "baby shows" and never let go of them.

oops, got myself thinking again about byan having a little hoard of weird and random trinkets and shiny things hidden away under their bed in the same way that some cats have collections of bottle caps under furniture.

like, none of it is particularly meaningful and they don't wear any of the jewelry that's under there, but they like to pull it all out once in a while to look at and are always adding more

still losing my mind at the way houses relationship with john would have fucked up the way he sees being an omega. just,,, teen house, young and confused, experiencing these absoloutely brutal heats. not understanding why they are so bad and hard when theyre supposed to be a time where an omega feels good. already feeling broken and wrong, and then having to face john's anger and disappointment over him being an omega

like i can only imagine how it would affect him in heat, a time where he would be less able to think coherently. and constantly remembering how traumatic and horrible his heats as a teen were, the memory making him feel bad and in turn making him feel physically worse. just like,,, a constant feedback loop of remembering and feeling bad -> feeling physically worse in turn -> reminding himself even more of his childhood and feeling worse

i feel like after having to deal with his first few heats without a strong family net to acclimate to the changes, once house is outta there and doing his own thing he tries to never deal with his heats alone. he marks his cycle religiously, makes deals with alphas in med school to help him through them, or even finds street suppressants if he's especially desperate.

man. you just know john has put him outside for some of his heats, too. nothing to nest with, no scent blocking patches, just left him in the yard like a sacrificial lamb. it goes without saying how dangerous that is.

hell, once he's employed i wouldn't be surprised if he stole something from the hospital to bring home in case a heat comes up that he can't deal with, something that'll knock him out for the worst of it.

Just had the realization that I'm gonna have A Little Extra Money this month for the first time in literally a decade and I'm not gonna cry but it's close

weird thing to notice but i think tomkin and aang are very similar. like the way they both chose kindness and to uphold their beliefs of being good despite everything they've suffered through and had taken from them, especially by the fire nation. sob

literally!!!!! tomkin took everything awful and let it make him kind and soft and weak and that's NOT a bad thing. so tired of weak characters being treated like their weakness is a bad thing when in reality very few of us are warriors, most of us are a bit pathetic and that's okay. the awfulness didn't make him strong but it did make him kind.

Could you make Lucas and august picrews as well?

this is for scientific experimental purposes <3

I can indeed! My two bois who do not have a picrew! (More can be done upon request, I need to hunt down a few good picrews to fully capture them! ❤️)

Here are my fave caretaker duo!

So this is August!:

And here is Lucas 🥹👉👈

oh baby I knew it from the fuckin moment the addc was introduced that there’s just no damn way they DIDNT have some legally sketchy shit going on with the alzheimers/dementia patients and unethical clinical trials. I feel so vindicated right now
