Hannibal mailing advices to Clarice on how to use a frying pan for self development is one hell of a way to contact your crush again after seven years.

"Ahhh.. the air is tense.. I feel it. I feel the aura of a pissed off brother.

"I'm glad it isn't my brother but still..."

what does love feel like again?

Dearest Eva, Something has happened to me that I realise I have to tell you about. I am so happy, so elated and relieved. [...] But what has happened to me is that I've fallen madly in love with a woman. And it seems to me so absolutely natural and genuine - there's nothing problematic about it at all. I just feel proud and uncontrollably glad. These last few weeks have been like one long dance of rich adventure, tenderness, intensity - an expedition into new realms of great simplicity and beauty.

I'm glad you like and support my "big" story, Dame Violette. <3

I'm glad you're writing it. The premise is really interesting, I love the character dynamics and the Lila twist was genuinely a surprise.

Got done with the main story of Bomb Rush Cyberfunk and it’s got me in a total Vibe.

We already know that Omen is an avid skateboarder, but do any of your other ocs also have an interest in riding sports? (Stuff like rollerskating, BMX, etc.)

Oh yeah, for sure! Riley's family has always been pretty big on roller skating (Rileys mom having even played in derby for a while), so despite the fact that Riley is rarely super sporty, she could probably skate circles around you. This enthusiasm also transferred to Violette, though she's still mostly just picking up how to do it.

Three pedantic assholes fumbling to explain what the fuck is going on between Clarice and Hannibal, all while a butch lesbian lowkey drags them. This is so freaking funny

my therapist: how are you feeling in the wake of your (autism spectrum disorder) diagnosis?

me: well it makes sense doesn’t it? i was the one who requested testing. like on some level i kind of figured.

my therapist: yes, i’m personally glad we pursued it because it helps me better understand parts of your behavior and how to accommodate you. but how do you feel about it? you said before that you were in heavy denial about the possibility when you were younger.

me: well yeah, i had a preconceived idea of what autism was that i know now wasn’t true. but at the time it was distressing and i didn’t want to think about it too hard.

my therapist: how was it different then? what was your idea of autism then?

me: it was, you know, severe developmental delay. i never thought i had developed abnormally at all, so to try and match up the severity i associated with autism and the way i viewed myself, i just couldn’t.

my therapist: but you did.

me: sorry?

my therapist: you did develop abnormally. both socially and academically.

me: socially yes, but i had no problems with academics. i always especially excelled at reading comprehension, more so than anyone else in my grade. i started lagging in high school but i think that was a lot of burnout and depression and ptsd, probably. i was incredibly smart. hell, i spoke in full sentences earlier than most of my peers.

my therapist: violette, that’s still abnormal development.

me: …huh?

my therapist: developing abnormally fast is still developing abnormally.

me:

me: oh.
