trying to find canon stories or fanwork that touches upon guy's TBI is like walking through a baren wasteland. most barely acknowledge it, and when they do it's just a one-liner or for a joke which. You Know.

#i'd rather they dont talk about it at all instead of mocking it #to the few writers who did put work into writing good fics about it: i am kissing you on the mouth and with tongue thank u for ur service #it's this balance between valid reactions of other characters (wow this guy is a huge jerk get him away from me/i used to know a different #guy and this is painful for me to see him changed and trying to accept this new personaltiy + disabilities) vs guy's own thoughts (i just s #suffered a big injury that took off years of life + hard work i put in bettering myself and set me back on many skills i used to know which #is deeply unfair and hard/i now have to learn how to live with a new personality + deal with the fact that i am now angry erratic and have #trouble with cognitive functions which is outside of my control/dealing with other's expectations and prejudices against me and my injury)#+ the way some storylines treat this as a joke. oh guy is so dumb he doesn't know big words when its just deeply sad and upsetting that som #someone with diplomas and education lost those abilities due to something entirely not his fault
