One of the most Autistic things about Miles (of many) imo, is that we're told by his parents in the second movie that he doesn't have any friends besides Ganke and ""Gwanda""
But in the first movie we see him walk down the street and greet a bunch of people, make jokes, and even get told by a girl that she "Misses him*
So he clearly IS very capable of getting along with people, particularly his classmates (his old classmates in this case) in surface level short interactions
But he struggles forming serious, emotionally vulnerable and meaningful relationships
Especially with people that aren't ""like him"", which in this case is the other Spider-people... But can easily be read as other Neurodivergent people
me when the emotionally repressed character is revealed to have had something happen in their childhood that was completely out of their control but changed them in a way they can never come back from
could you please you do a miles 42 x male reader who is autistic and can’t pick up on subtle hints and sarcasm and is just over all a very forward and blunt person just straight up tells people what they think and doesn’t sugarcoat things at all
Sorry if I get anything wrong, I’m not autistic nor really educated.
FEM READER DNI
First meet:
The first time you met him he thought you had a problem with him. He was about to throw hands, but something in the back of his mind told him not to.
You two were talking for a group project and somehow got off topic. It ended up being a conversation about clothes and you straight up went “Yeah, I like your hair but your outfits kinda weird. I like the shoes though.”
He stared at you and so did the rest of the group. They all thought something was about to go down until your friend popped up saying you do that and mean no harm.
”Well aren’t you a ray of sunshine.”
”No not really.” Then you went in with the project, leaving everyone a bit confused.
Confession:
He was frustrated, screaming into his pillow every night. Venting to his mom and uncle about your obliviousness.
Yes, he knew you were autistic, but it still bothered him. He would straight out flirt with you, no shame whatsoever, and you still didn’t get the hint.
“If I got into a relationship I want you to be my boyfriend.”
“Cool.”
When he confessed he had to make it so obvious. He had a sign and some candy and went to your apartment at night.
The sign said “will you be my boyfriend?” Can’t get more obvious than that, can it?
”Is this sarcasm of some kind of prank?”
He climbed into your room, discarding the candy and sign. “No. I would like you to my boyfriend.” He looked you in the eyes, “I’d like to be with you. Now and forever.”
“I don’t know about forever…” you both chuckled at this. He knew you weren’t lying but he’ll keep you, one way or another. “I’d like to be your boyfriend to.”
He cupped your face and kissed you softly. Enjoying the moment that he knew will forever be engraved into his mind. “Could use some chapstick.” He’s second guessing his thoughts.
Relationship:
He’s always by you. He’s like a guard dog, if someone hints at something he doesn’t like, he’s staring the down until they leave.
If they say it out right to your face, you’ll have to hold him back. But it’s fine, you usually say something back.
”That’s irrelevant, like you.”
He was in the floor laughing about it, proud to. He even told his uncle and that’s when his uncle knew he liked you.
Although it’s a little hard when Miles wants something. If he hints at it it goes over his head. “You know I’m cold and lonely over here.” “Get a blanket and just talk to me.”
He appreciates your honesty…somewhat.
”That color doesn’t look good on you.” “…thanks.”
”It’s not your best cooking but it’s not your worst.” “I’ll keep that in mind.”
”Maybe-“ “No.”
He loves you.
Just stop testing him from time to time. and if anyone says the same thing, he’s about to send people to the hospital.
Also 'The Morales family wouldn't know a lot about being lgbt' is just antiblackness LMFAO Jefferson,Rio and Aaron are grown ass people at LEAST in their mid-30s and Miles was extremely mlm-coded in the comics(the nigga deadass had a Moonlight 2016 poster in addition to all the gay asf male friendships)and Itsv him is VERY easy to read as transmasc and i've met tons of black transfems who say she's a trans girl egg with it and Atsv in mind so if you think Jeffrio and Uncle Aaron are anything less than the perfect allies or even queer themselfves,then please tell me why you think Peter B and MJ aren't homophobic with evidence and why you think Miles would be any less knowledgable on being trans than Gwen and especially why you think Hobie would be a sleazy douchebag booktok boyfriend who makes Miles uncomfortable on purpose for the bit when in canon he's literally Punk Prince Charming as you babygirlify The Spot.Go ahead
I can just imagine that little Franziska used to love those horse movies
Like “no one can tame this horse…. this wild mare,.:…. we’ll have to send her to a farm upstate…..,,.”
Franziska: :’0
“NO!! I will take care of her!!!!! She’s special to me!!!!”
Franziska: :0!!!!
Sitting on her knees in the living room, eyes GLUED to the screen, holding her toy horses in her hands by their back legs and just STARING
Pleading with Miles to get the tape for her and rewind it back to the beginning and just bouncing next to him as he sighs and gets it all ready for her (this is one of the rare occasions where she can be FULLY excited for something and not worry about sitting still and immerse herself in it)
Sometimes she makes Miles play the villainous dad who won’t let his daughter keep the wild horse (and we won’t talk about symbolism hahahaha… ha… sigh)
When your brand of autism doesn’t let you switch hyper fixations month by month so your brain only lets you consume one fandoms content and that fixation literally can last several months if not a year or more but the fandom dies after just a month or two and your scrambling for any content you can get your grubby autistic hands on because your brain needs it to function because you work 50+ weeks and fanfiction and edits are the only stimulus keeping your brain sane but you ran out of content like 2 months ago and now your dying
I can now recreate most of chapter 8!!! / bonus features below the cut / follow for more cool stuff
Jin Ling's sprites:
His share code is MVDLXY :)
Congrats, Jin Ling! You have 3 different poses, showing three different levels of irritation, making you the most complex character so far.
His sprites were traced off of Cody Hackins from 1-2. His little puffed-cheek sprite screamed Jin Ling.
(NASA announcer voice) Aaaand we have soundtrack. I thought Luke Atmey's and Furio Tigre's themes both suited Jin Ling pretty well. Other contenders before I decided on Moderato 2004 were Allegro 2002 and Investigation - Middle 2002.
Will take a break from these for Art Fight probably but they have been sooo fun to make. Plus I get to show off my objection.lol skills outside of stupid discord arguments.
