AuDHD is so funny sometimes like what do you mean my hyperfixations/special interests will last for years on end or possibly forever but they will cycle out every month or two with absolutely no transitional period or warning. like i will think about the same topic every day obsessively for 46 days in a row and on the 47th day with no visible cause adhd brain goes "ok! bored of that now" and autism brain goes "dw i got something queued up for ya" and i blast into full blown obsession on some other topic whose mental file folders haven't opened in 9 months. brain's out here treating hyperfixations like a crop rotation. once the dopamine runs out it cycles in another one but once something's in the rotation it never ever leaves. last summer we brought in one from when i was 11. it's so funny to me but frustrating too bc like. i cannot stress enough my inability to predict or control this. or how completely abrupt and random it can be
EDIT: seems this is more common among ND people than i thought, and probably not limited to AuDHD specifically :] i was just describing my own experiences and didn't expect this post to blow up, so don't take me for an authority, but i'm glad it resonated with so many of y'all!
#actually adhd#actually autistic#audhd#aphelion.txt#ik 'adhd brain' vs 'autism brain' is a gross oversimplification especially given how much overlap there can be#but it at least helps me conceptualize wtf is going on in my head when i do this lol#and yeah i'm mostly referring to fandoms in this post but it can happen w more 'Traditional' special interests too#like my linguistics special interest which hasn't popped up in a couple years now but whenever it does#i will fill literal notebooks while studying 4 languages at once and simultaneously inventing a conlang#and then i'll be like Ok that was fun! and several months later im deleting like. 2gb of textbooks off my iphone to make room for an update#And sometimes yeah there is a precipitating event like 'Oh something new happened in X fandom with my blorbo!' but sometimes it's like#yeah. no. idk either. switch got flipped in my brain and X no longer sparks joy. only Y rn. how come it's Y? yeah idk i also wish i knew#i don't think any of this is actually an uncommon experience for people with these types of neurodivergencies it's just.#the severity of abruptness and TOTALITY of the switch that makes me feel like a weirdo sometimes lol#like I'M getting mental whiplash from this sometimes. idk how y'all are still following my blog

aptx!kaito au in which Shinichi doesn't know aptx exists and feels insane that his leading theory is "a six year old is the mastermind behind Kaitou Kid"
#no I don't know how this would logically work I just thought it'd be funny#and yes this would fuck up countless meetings and character arcs but consider: the CHAOS#this au is a gift to me from me bc ch1120 is making me pop a vein and I needed a pick-me-up <3#Shinichi humbling arc but it's because he keeps getting outsmarted by (what he thinks is) a literal 6 yo#(given that he never ran into the org and doesn't know shrinking is possible plus Kaito is much better at acting like a normal child)#and KID gets to bully Shinichi. as a treat#pls don't look at the drawing too closely ajdhhdhd tis just a dood in this cheap little notebook I got as a handout#somehow I find it easier to draw in places other than my sketchbook... less pressure to do it well and fill up all the blank space I guess#kuroba kaito#kaitou kid#kid the phantom thief#kudou shinichi#jimmy kudo#does anyone even call him that anymore it's so cursed. JIMMY#dcmk#detective conan#magic kaito#detco#idk what to call this au...#kinda want it to have something to do w the 'the truly impossible' sherlock quote hmmm#redefining the improbable AU#maybe?#shrunken!kaito#aptx!kaito#i keep getting notes for this post nooo let it die already 😭 I do not want to be Perceived

6/11 & 6/15-16/25
Ive been watching DP again for fic research purposes. Also b/c it's cool. Anyways have some 'i still hate how i was drawing his hair so i'm trying something else' doodles. I think i like these ones better? i was being too complicated before now it looks a little more natural
I have another doodle but i'm putting it under the cut b/c holy fk it looks creepy in a bad way. (i was experimenting. The experiments failed.)

....i think i'm gonna back off using actual water with my water color markers. This poor boy deserved better than this creepy look. (oddly enough this is the first instance of me wanting to use digital again since i started this book.
#doodle pages#my doodles#does this deserve a dp tag?#probably not but i'll give it one#danny phantom#''I can fix him'' i say placing the image into a file to redraw digitally later#: )#i think it's more of a 'i don't know the techniques to get what i'm looking for' problem#also a 'watercolor works VERY differently than any other medium i've ever used' problem#which is fine#i'm not seriously doing watercolor anyways#im just filling a notebook full of silly doodles while using some cool brush pens i found#if watercolors don't work well for me then oh well#i'll just use them as markers like in the first doodle#i like how that one came out for the most part#even if it doesn't blend like it should b/c its on the wrong paper

I like drawing & I've gotten pretty okay at it over the years but I have absolutely no imagination
#i cant for the life of me picture things i haven't seen before so drawing absolutely anything withoit a reference is hell#im good at drawing purely in the sense that i can make the lines go where theyre supposed to and honeslty thsts enough#I love expressing myself creatively through writing but 90% of the time when I draw I just want to replicate something#currently filling a notebook with sovas#other peoples sovas official art sovas idc theyre all going in there#especially fond of the ones that don't have lineart where i can pick how to best copy it in pencil#i used to do the same thing on minecraft where i would make a creative world look up a gajillion house blueprints and just make them#“drawing as expression” NOT TO ME. PENCIL GO BRRRR

the duality of (wo)man
#this is my art I’m allowed to repost it😤🤣#I just think the contrast between these two pieces is neat !!!!#and that wasn’t intentional on my part just a cool coincidence#honestly posting these pieces together I think they hit harder than one or the other. like they were always meant to be one cohesive piece#it’s wild how I’ve been drawing Isabella since I was like. 11.#I’ve had irl friends ask ‘how did you learn to draw??’ and I’m like ‘…well when I was 11 I filled a notebook with drawings of just Isabella’#🤣🤣🤣#it’s wild that I was 20 when I got back into pnf fandom and now I’m 24#AND NEW EPISODES ARE ON THE HORIZON#so stinkin cool#ANYWAY ART DUALITY#Cadence draws#isabella garcia shapiro#Phineas and ferb#phinabella#phinbella#angst#fluff#pnf art#pnf

arctic monkeys on mtv valencia, 2010 (x)
#i cannot get over how much he looks like a shy pretty goth girl who's just dyed her hair red#and who's probably obsessed with edgar allan poe and carries around a little dog eared copy of the masque of the red death at all times#she wears a black velvet jacket she got in a thrift store#and has chipped black nail polish from biting her nails as she stares moodily out the window contemplating the complexity of mortality#and of course she carries her black moleskin notebook with her at all times#it's filled with uneasy thoughts and black ink doodles of poisonous flowers#christ#i need to stop#this interview has clearly triggered something in me lol#what can i say#humbug era alex is just truly something else#💜#alex turner#alex gifs#humbug era#lulu posts#my gifs

Hi, I sent an ask like 5 minutes ago but I'm not sure if it went through for certain reasons so if it did just ignore that,
I love your fic so much. One of my favourite things is the authors note, I love hearing your rambles and thought processes behind certain scenes,
And JEE💖💖
The jee lovers in the fandom are small but dedicated, I love that man.

Any situation of an older man reluctantly and unknowingly adopting a child they hate and growing soft for them I love, I could ramble on for hours about certain headcanons I have regarding jee and zuko for hours, I need more of them (AND HIM AND BATO (please don't kill them i need AT LEAST 1 queer couple to be happy in this fic🙏🙏))
Also another thing, I do fanart and I really want to do art for this fic but I have no idea which scene to do, is there any specific ones you would want art of?
HI HI HI HI HIIII!!
I didn’t get your five minute ago ask but I got this one!! ahhhhhh my shameful authors notes haha I am very unhinged in there, I think I black out and rub my face in the keyboard honestly.
JEE LOVERS UNITED WE STAND!!!! I adore his dislike of both zuko & sokka in the beginning and now he’s falling hard for sokkas uncle and has pretty much said if anything happens to these kids I’ll burn this bitch to the ground. Unfortunately, Jees situation is going to get a bit more complicated he just doesn’t realize it yet haha.
THERE IS A HAPPY QUEER COUPLE! *gestures at liab zuko* I mean they’re happy like…. some of the time haha. Ok ok I see your point but no promises because you know when I start blowing shit up in liab I can get a little crazy :D mwahahaha.
FAN ART FOR ME?!1?27,771!37/&/ YOU KNOW HOW TO MAKE ME FERAL!!! ahhhhh honestly idk how to pick scenes im so bad at it i dont know what to choose but if you did wanna draw any scenes maybe any from ITF? Your fave or ones scenes you liked idk that’s my suggestion lol.
thanks for this amazing ask you’re a beautiful human thank you!
#I’m excited to unleash next chapter haha#I changed a few details and it shifted the plot to match more of the vibe I want#Wasn’t sure how to pull it off but lying in bed one night I was like LE GASP I GOT IT!! & ran to my notebook and wrote it down#Yes I keep a note book by my bed#and forty cups of water what about it??#Anywayyyy this was such a fun ask and I honestly think we could fill a decent sized bus for the Jee fan club#He’s got lots of fans but I think some like him in certain situations others don’t so the fan hood isn’t jee united#Which is fine different strokes for different folks#But I love writing grumpy Jee haha and him next to hostile sokka and glaring growling zuko was fun#Now zukka is smiling and laughing and things are going along so swimmingly#HOPE NOTHING BAD HAPPENS#THAT WOULD BE A SHAME#;);););;)#:D#im sorry I’m such an asshole I can’t help it#Your ask made me smile thanks for sending it#& if you pick a scene to draw I’ll stare at it forever I promise#I can’t wait!!! But no pressure because it’s about having fun lol#Ok thanks again sorry for being so wild#Dixongravesart#leaving it all behind#liab#itf#ask

Genuine question for people who write fanfiction:
What's your process? Like outlining or just straight up stream of consciousness that gets refined into paragraphs or what?
#send me asks#i don't write fic (except that one) but when i write down oc stuff its always like bullet points of things#that aren't exactly fleshed out but enough to remind me of whatever i was thinking of so i can like reimagine it#i used to fill notebooks with shit that was honestly only comprehensible to me but ive been wondering how other people write#also sometimes if the dialogue i thought of was good id just write that down

a head-canon of mind is i think post-oda’s death dazai 100% “doesn’t allow” himself to get attached to people, bc he thinks eventually everything he has will be lost. this manifests in him constantly keeping a persona with everyone he interacts with and never showing true emotional vulnerability.
HOWEVER. i also think that dazai-post-oda’s-death compulsively fills his hours strategizing on how to protect those people he “doesn’t care about” from harm. i’m talking notebooks upon notebooks crowding his dorm filled with data and analysis on the ada and select port mafia members’ strengths and weaknesses, who and what might threaten them, and how he would prevent that threat before it could even happen.
i think dazai believes he’s a curse on everyone he knows, and he has to expend his only asset (his mind) on ensuring he’ll be able to thwart the curse before it ever comes to fruition. because last time he kept someone close to him and damned all the consequences, they died.
#kunikida barges into his dorm one day when he ‘sleeps in’ past work and finds dazai agressively re-writing another plan for kenji#in case his family is kidnapped and used against him as blackmail take him away from the ada#he never went to sleep the night before.#many of the notebooks are titled [NAME] - Mori#and are exclusively filled of plans he thinks mori would use them in and how he’d circumvent them#he’s sooo unwell. just hug the people you care about man. why are you batman.#this is VERY self idulgent btw i’m aware.#however idc this is clone high for classic literature#BTW ‘select mafia members’ doesn’t just mean chuuya. he has ones for akutagawa and gin as well#actually those are some of his longest because he can’t directly interact with them and therefore his plans are more complex#bsd dazai#bsd headcanons#bsd#ango has a couple of notebooks too. btw. if you even care.#my hcs

i'm writing a gilmore girls fic that involves paris geller from our pandemic year 2020 going back to 2001, around the time jess first comes in to town. very slow burn between jess/paris. i have around 10k words of snippets all over my doc and an outline and i'm slowly becoming re-obsessed with gilmore girls again. what the fuck is up with this fandom that i keep going back to like an on-and-off again boyfriend??? anyway, i have no idea if i'll ever post this and i've been going back and forth on this for what feels like forever. if this sounds at all interesting, let me know.
#message#the fic has lane/jess friendship and jess/rory is still a thing since i just can't see these two chuckleheads NOT into each other#paris is in full form and i am having so much fun writing her?? god i love her so much nfewoffew#and jess's voice is acerbic and complicated and this boi is making me laugh as i write lmao#and it's interesting getting into the headspace of 2020 and what it was like back then and how this would affect paris#the outline is growing by the minute and i filled up an entire notebook constantly thinking about this fic#i haven't felt this inspired in a while and i'm clinging onto it like a goddamn lifeline#getting their voices right is a challenge and part of the reason why im tempted to post little snippets of this fic cause i need a litmus#test to see if i'm getting them right#gg fic writers out there you deserve goddamn medals#writing so many smart characters simultaneously is fucking hard yet rewarding#gilmore girls#dippers#(is that really the ship name? if so thats really cute 🥰)
