I just saw the new episode of My Adventures with Superman and now I have a very specific wish for how things play out when Lois and Jimmy inevitably find out about Clark's secret. I want it to be another kind of "YOU DID THAT ON PURPOSE?!" situation before he fights another villain. But instead, Clark finally hits a breaking point privately goes off to them like "IT'S ME! IT WAS ME THE WHOLE TIME! STOP PUTTING YOURSELVES IN DANGER PLEASE!" before relocating them to a safe room with his speed but he accidentally locks them in. Then when he goes to fight the villain, they end up taking hostages or something in order to justify the encounter taking as long as possible. And the rest of the episode just focuses on Lois and Jimmy coming to terms with Clark being Superman and eventually deciding to be supportive and doing their best to understand and help with his situation before Clark returns to apologize, worried that they'd be furious only to see they aren't. Idk, I think that'd be a fun/kinda wholesome way to do it.
Me: you know tbh I haven’t rly experienced a lot of speech loss or sensory issues, sometimes I can handle my sensory triggers fine, maybe it’s weird that I have an AAC, maybe I don’t need it and I’m just faking all my symptoms and if I pushed through it-
*fire alarm sounds*
*literally crumples into a ball on the floor with my ears covered, cannot move for several minutes despite desperately trying to, cannot talk for over an hour*
Me: …okay so maybe that was the internalized ableism talking
Miles: i have to be within the older Spider-Man’s line of sight at all times when i’m in Queens
Civilian: and why’s that?
Miles: he doesn’t trust me to not start talking about my special interest to random people when i’m supposed to be helping around. while you’re here, lemme tell you about all the different fire alarms i saw in my field trip-
dude the funniest fucking thing happened and it sounds very much out of a tumblr story so im telling it.
so it was my works christmas in july party and we’re all gathered in the theatre foyer and someone decided to open with a traditional indigenous smoking ceremony which was a lovely gesture but highly impractical. the ceremony itself was beautiful but of course they bring out the snoke and we all are kinda like “ahhh” bc we are indoors and the smoke has very little places to go. the ceremony happens and we are all blessed but the booze comes out and then we’re like cool and the party actually starts and we get into trivia.
all goes without a hitch until round two and one of the questions is “we are gonna play a mashup of two songs, and you have to write what songs they are” and so everyone goes silent to hear these songs.
and of course of fucking course as soon as the mc says “im gonna play the song now, here it is” and its all silent we just hear:
My building is surrounded by other apartment buildings and so EVERYTHING echos around us. And one of my neighbors across the street has started leaving their little yappy dog outside every morning to bark and bark and bark for like 45 minutes and I. Am going to commit murder
