writing PJO chars' adhd/autistic/dyslexic/etc traits is extremely fun for me, especially exploring the different ways those traits might manifest for each of them and how they react to those traits in themselves based on their individual personalities and I need to do more of it.
anyways Nico autism hc that I've been meaning to write for ages but haven't gotten a good excuse to yet - if he gets stressed out enough Nico will very rarely have speech loss for up to a couple of days at a time. It TOTALLY freaks him out the first time or two that it happens because Using Your Voice is such a big thing for him. something something that quote from BoO about being halfway to Asphodel already. And he struggles a lot with general cues already so he puts even more weight on being able to communicate very directly and efficiently, and being physically unable to communicate verbally is like his worst nightmare. Plus he's already stressed and probably shutting down whenever it happens so it's just Extra Bad and it takes a bit of his friends helping calm him down and find other ways for him to communicate that works for him for him to start feeling better and shifting his perspectives a bit about what that whole "using your voice" manta means to him (mostly just. a little less literal). also he totally learns sign language in probably at least one or two varieties cause he cannot stop picking up languages.

By the way I am on both sides at the end of CA: Civil War.
I can understand Tony in the moment losing his mind over the winter soldier having killed his parents.
But like, I also think it’s insane that he thought his “friendship” with Steve is even remotely close to the same level as his with Bucky.
And also Bucky was innocent so…

gna be a lil cheeky here cuz i feel like this will be tough to answer
20. DS n Deco
21. Blip and Comet
everyone has their moments i'm sure so let's seeee
20) What is their best memory together?
For DS and Deco? Yikes, that's a hard one! The only thing I can think of is this moment right here (which will probably happen sometime later in the story)
It's more bittersweet, but DS actually feeling for Deco for once spawns a strange feeling of kinship in both of them, even though they're technically rivals.
21. What is their worst memory together?
For Blip and Comet...hmm. Another hard one.
I wanna say that they once tried to go camping in the local park, but everything seemed to go wrong at once, and they both got frustrated enough that they headed back to Blip's place and crashed there. They managed to make the best of it, but both of them were pretty disappointed that the camping didn't turn out the way they had hoped.

*peeks out from behind the curtain* heyyyyyy
if you have NOT been rendered sick and tired by my incessant daredevil-posting on this fine day, then you may be interested in this lil thing i made (and will continue to make for many moons to come)!
summary below:
It happens like this:
The pain erupts along every synapse, like each nerve has been lit on fire and set to burn, and Matt crumples in on himself. In one ear, he listens as Hell’s Kitchen explodes simultaneously into a compressing silence and a cacophonous chaos. In the other, Foggy and Karen are telling him to breathe, breathe, please just breathe. But he can’t. He can’t.
His bones are splitting apart—
No. His bones are atomizing. They are disintegrating.
Their heartbeats thrum together, faster and faster and faster until the silence consumes and then—
—Matt stumbles forward and lands hard on his hands and knees.
And he is here. It’s only been a second.
But Karen and Foggy are gone, and they have been for a long, long time.
[ or: matt gets blipped, and karen and foggy are left behind. five years later, matt finally comes back. ]

One sad fact about Nevermore that nobody asked for but I just remembered is that she flinches or yelps whenever someone snaps their fingers.

the biggest problem with any sort of projects that involve any amount of coding is that you simply can't show them off to anyone once you're done
you jazz hands at a command prompt that just says "sorting... complete!" and no one has any idea how long it took you to get it to sort that many things that quickly
you show off a whole block of carefully encoded XML and people will either just see the representation that shows none of the innards, or they'll see the innards and understand none of it
tech student's bane
