A stimboard for Charon [mythology] with themes of the ocean, coins, and woodworking in dark blue, black, and grey.

Here you go, my friend! Thank you so much for your request, I hope this does you justice! I had a lot of these sitting in my "favourites" pile, so this was honestly a delight to make.

So giggles is a beauty tuber, cuddles is a vlogger, nuttys a gaming streamer and splendids a tiktoker. Who else is there. Does handy do carpentry tutorials. Does mole do baking videos. Is toothy on the dark web where he streams his illegal dentistry. I think flaky does storytime videos where its clear they are clouding so many details with their anxieties and makes everything sound insane

HANDY DOES THOSE HACK VIDEOS BUT THEY ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE AND ARE USEFUL.

flaky does like asmr stim video stuff and spends half their paycheck on getting the materials. toothy also does shit like that but its the weird medical stuff you'd look up yknow.

and the big kicker:

sniffles has a rantsona for his controversial debate channel that everyone hates.

Rocket

Rocket is energetic and fun! Super chatty and loves meeting new people! He tries to be a good communicator, but sometimes won't communicate his own feelings, so you got to push him sometimes! However he is always open to helping you work through your stuff!

Rocket's a big extrovert, loves going out in public and doing things! He loves being active with you! He also likes stimming with you! Doing silly dances together, and happy wiggles.

Rocket has Autism! He loves stimming, is always moving or doing somethings. Tapping his fingers together, observing his surroundings, cracking his joints, or talking to himself! Though he misses some social cues, he does make sure he only does quiet stims out in public :]

Rocket loves physical activities! Loves going to the gym and while he can for long periods, prefers being up and moving over sitting still. He also likes doing carpentry, he'll build things for the laser place frequently! Cutouts and new layouts. He also likes being able to fix things around the house 10/10 handyman lol.

Skeletons Rocket knows would be his older brother Meteorite of course. He works with Lucky and they're really close, knows Bee through Lucky. He also knows Pumpkin and Muffin from the local market!

8. What is their coping mechanism?

...bold of you to assume he only has one, Anon. Hriob is a muddled mess of a person for all his facets - and in many ways because of them... add in traits that suggest he is ASD, and a history of extreme Anxiety, and you tend to develop multiple methods of managing yourself. Common examples you may find him doing are self-guided meditation, exercise, ASMR/stimming to the sound of falling rain, and burying himself in carpentry, masonry, and the like.

10. What is their MBTI type?

It has been some time since I ran the test(s) online with him in mind, but last I checked Hriob's results said he was INTJ (Introverted-Intuitive-Thinking-Judging). I do have mild issue with the tests since its not always easy to take into account the degree of such tests in each 'category', but I am not sure I want to bother re-testing him since I don't stick heavily to portrayals based off the MBTI alone.

17. How many hours of sleep does your OC get on average?

Another tough one, but I'd say somewhere between 0.5 and 3.5 tops per day. The guy is both magically fortified by being around plant life and sources of magic, and has almost-guaranteed night terrors every time he falls asleep due to his incredibly rough childhood trauma, so its a given he avoids sleep as much as possible. That said, in Verses (mainly relationships) where he doesn't sleep alone, and tends to sleep-walk his way into treating people like his personal teddy bear, he manages to rest more consistently and longer, though not perfectly easily all the same.

work was awesome we only had 2 kids but they were thrilled to be back and play with all the toys. stace my boss bought a bucket full of stim toys (kinetic sand, fidget toys, stress balls etc) that they were enamoured with as well as tons of toolkits for us to take apart old electronics with to inspect the insides and do carpentry with. theres lots of new lego and building toys. plus a whole jewelry kit all the kids are going to use for valentines day. we're gonna get everyone to make cards and friendship bracelets for their best friends with beads in lettering. i missed this so much. they both said "goodbye i love you!!!" when they left and i nearly started crying. i am on 4 hours of sleep.

autistic!caleb, jester, + fjord, part 2

(original post can be found here!)

since people seemed to like the original one so much, i figured i’d make another with more headcanons!!

caleb:

literally never understands what his body needs. is he hungry? is he tired? is he depressed? does he just need to pee? hell if he knows

wriggle fingers for the Stim

chewed on his clothing a lot as a kid but that was “unprofessional” at the academy and “really gross” with the mighty nein as his clothes have not been washed in minimum 3 weeks maximum 6 months

jester buys him stuff he can chew on safely

this poor disaster cannot function independently. if a conversation goes off-script (which, its the mighty nein; it always does) and hes not with a Friend who can help Redirect Him back into the New, Scary, Free form Conversation he will just up and leave

look. his fine & gross motor skills are TERRIBLE. his handwriting is chicken scratch, he can’t walk in a straight line while sober and focused, he chokes on his own saliva. he’s a disaster.

this has not stopped him from trying to do a cartwheel in the private of his own room after seeing beauregard do one.

he almost broke his wrist.

tone never matches emotion, ever

this was a big problem back when he first met the mighty nein and he was too uncomfortable to stim around them

now that theyre Family hes okay stimming and if anyones having trouble judging his emotions they can usually go off his stims

an extension of the prior point: caleb stims in very different ways depending on how he’s feeling

jester:

plays with stim toys so frequently & roughly that they break after Literally A Single Day

had a special interest in BUGS as a kid

not rlly big on this anymore but when she sees bugs her brain is like :O!!!!!!!!! still

her mom Really Does Not Like Bugs. but she bought jester booklets full of insect facts anyways b/c she Loves Her Daughter

yknow how sometimes things definitely are not edible but you go to put it in your mouth anyways? she does this with literally anything she can get her hands on. she did it all the time once did it with grass & dirt as a kid

one of her FAVE phrases to do echolalia of is “i love you”

she LOVES water, just like fjord

she LOATHES water slime, totally unlike fjord

idk what this is called but yknow when you’re doing things and you gotta Make A Comical Noise that matches what youre doing (like going “omnom” when eating or “woosh!” when you turn around a corner real fast)? yeah she does this

can, will, and MUST jump up & down when happy

makes bracelets and puts little beads & strings you can fidget with on them (she wears like 20 at any given moment)

fjord:

blankets: good 4 making cocoon then Sleep In It

v easily overwhelmed by touch unless its from specific ppl (jester, beau, & caduceus are the only ppl on the Good Touch list)

absolutely fascinated by the smallest of details in things. he could sit for hours running his fingers over the fabric of a quilt

hasn’t had a routine in 14 years and Does Not Intend To Start Now

its hard for him to follow a routine but not having routine makes him anxious so hes in the most awkward inbetween ever where most of the time by the time hes in bed he’s overwhelmed as all fuck

over time, caleb helps him sort out daily activities into a sort-of-routine, and he feels less overwhelmed afterwards!

bounced from obscure hyperfixation to obscure hyperfixation as a kid and now has really oddly specific information and knowledge

throughout his childhood & still now, he volunteers to do a lot of hands-on work & crafts as a form of stimming / moving his body

one of his fave things to do nowadays is help jester out with art projects

when he was a kid he loved to do carpentry stuff cause Wood Smell Is Amazing Stim

often trips over his words & will sometimes even say the completely wrong (but related) word

although he doesn’t really like being open about his autistic-ness to allistics or in public, catch him making jokes & openly speaking about it when he’s just with jester & caleb

[mjrtaurus]

If Till wasn't a rockstar or poet what job do you think he'd do?

I think he would stick to little craftsman like things. Carpentry, basket weaving, mechanics... Careers where one can become really drawn into the process of the work itself. I think he finds routine work very soothing and grounding. It's very tactile and reliant on muscle memory, hypnotic and near mindless, perfect to get lost in. Almost like a stimming behavior.

I also feel like he finds a lot of fulfilment from creating, repairing, or tending to things. There's something very nurturing about him, and these things seem to scratch that particular itch.

I’d love to show off all the projects I’m making (and maybe even get some input from other makers), so I’m putting all of my craft and hobby posts and ideas here on a blog, so I can actually keep track of all the good info on tumblr!

Before You Follow:

Regarding Witchcraft: If you’re not into seeing anything related to witchcraft, simply blacklist the tag #witchcraft and it should never show up when you look at my blog! Here’s a short guide on blacklisting tags if you don’t know how. This can be used for any other hobbies you’re not interested in as well.

Do not mock anyone’s practice here. Differing opinions are part of magic theory and practice, but there is no single “right” way to practice witchcraft, and anyone can be a witch. Making cruel comments on anyone’s spirituality is a fast track to getting your ass blocked. Nobody is looking to engage with an elitist, inconsiderate, and incorrect attitude.

Regarding herbal medicine:  if you’re here looking for herbal medicinal help and want advice, be advised that: 

I know my shit very well, and I will *ALWAYS* advise you to seek adequate medical help from trained professionals before turning to herbal medicine.

I’ve trained in herbalism for many years, starting from a young age, by professional herbalists in my family. However, I am not a professional, and I don’t pretend to be one. Any information from me that you want to use should be run by your personal doctor first; they know what your health needs are, and are familiar with your medical history and current medications/conditions. I am not.

 I will advise you NOT to ingest essential oils of any kind, nor plants that you aren’t familiar with and haven’t sourced yourself. 

I fully believe in the science behind vaccines, and I will block anti-vax arguments on sight. 

I will smack you if you try to replace your professionally prescribed medications with an herbal supplement or treatment. 

Herbal medicine is a fantastic tool for helping a myriad of both short-term and chronic afflictions, but it is not a replacement for modern medical care. Herbalism is generally best used in CONJUNCTION with medical care, not as a substitute.

Inclusion Policy: 

This blog is LBGTQIA+ friendly. This blog is POC friendly.

Asexual/Trans/Bisexual/Intersex/Nonbinary, Disabled, abused, and POC folks are welcome here. This is a positive, inclusive, and protected space. 

Any and all bullshit will be immediately deleted and blocked.

Do you have a list of AUs or verses for samilen at all? :O

Fuck yeah I do (I really needed to write these out anyway tbh)

Default/Standard Verse

In his standard verse, Samilen is not the Warrior of Light in any capacity. Instead of being tasked by the Scions or blessed with any particular gift, he is merely a botanist and carpenter residing in Gridania, with some also knowing him as a once-talented archer in the Twin Adders before and up to the events of The Calamity.

In this verse, Samilen is extremely nonverbal and only rarely speaks to anyone but himself outside the presence of others. Though he is not a hermit who keeps solely to himself, the Keeper does try to keep away from crowds and from most bustling centers of activity if he can help it. 

He visits Limsa Lominsa on occasion to either visit family or pay respect to them (he’s never told anyone if they survived the Calamity or not), but otherwise gently keeps to himself in the Black Shroud when he’s not otherwise at one of the guilds or napping in his practically-now-a-home inn room.

Warrior of Light AU

As a Warrior of Light, Samilen’s adventures closely follows the MSQ of the game without too much deviation, essentially plucking him from his simple life as a Gridanian botanist and tossing him back into a world of loss, stress and combat that he thought he once left behind. In the early months of his time with the Scions, Samilen keeps very much to himself still–he’s terrified of getting close to people again, and moreso about being useless to save the world which has been thrust upon his shoulders. His biggest fear in this verse is, by far, being a failure.

As time goes on, Samilen allows himself to open up with the Scions and the other people he meets along the way. ARR teaches him to reach out, Heavensward teaches him to trust, Stormblood teaches him to be brave and Shadowbringers teaches him to stand tall in his convictions.

By the events of Heavensward into Stormblood, Samilen regains some sense of verbal communication. Though he will always fall back into mute handspeak when stressed in much the same way as he self-stims, the Keeper does have a sense of growth very unique to this verse, if only to help him feel confident enough in himself and his abilities to speak once more and to protect those most dear to him.

Lightwarden AU

This verse is a spinoff of Samilen being the Warrior of Light, specifically during the events of Shadowbringers. While the MSQ would see the warrior having take down all the Lightwardens and bring peace back to the First, this verse has Samilen fail and fall victim to the light instead, transforming into a Lightwarden himself and then on known only as Silence, as a testimate to all of the words, feelings and desires he left unspoken in his life as a mortal.

Close to Home AU

In this verse, Samilen never chose to leave home when he was a child, instead remaining with his family and taking up the mariner skills of his father N’obuli Tia. Instead of learning and perfecting skills in botany and carpentry, Samilen instead takes on the title as one of the best fisherman of his age and up-and-coming culinarian. He never much learns the combative skills of archery, though his close kinship with his sister N’mahzi (who herself wants to be a marauder and general brigand) does allow him to learn some manner of basic self-defense.

When the Calamity happens, none of them are prepared for it. Like many people in Limsa, the Jawantal family can only experience it with the fervent hope of surviving and rebuilding like everyone else. It’s hard even as the years pass by, but Samilen is determined to do his best to support his family through whatever means required of him.

[af-answers]

For the whole Co., what are your hobbies? Any roleplayers? Gamers? Writers? Bird watchers?

Butler: I have more hobbies than a person should. I play chess, read (romance novels), do some carpentry, cycling, gardening, and crosswords. Birdwatching is a good suggestion.

Mulch: Hey, I garden too! My options are kinda limited, though, living underground and all. Mosses are my favorite, at the mo.

No. 1: I cycle through hobbies. My last five were loom weaving, pot throwing, piano– which is nearly impossible with chubby, four-fingered hands, unfortunately– cooking, and spelunking. I’m currently interested in fashion design for demons.

Qwan: You should be focusing on creating a decent magical illusion.

Juliet: I make stim videos for youtube. They really help the twins relax, actually.

Foaly: I construct life-accurate acrylic duplicates.

Holly: You make toy models, got it. I take naps, is that a hobby?

Mulch: It counts. It takes time, effort, and skill.

Trouble: I don’t have time for hobbies. I spend all my time protecting the People.

Foaly: You have no life or friends, got it.

Trouble: Neither does the Mud Boy!

Artemis: My hobby is protecting the People.

All: ……

Holly: Mic. Dropped.
