Oh! idk if I ever actually said this but Jon has ADHD and you can rip that headcanon from my COLD DEAD HANDS

You can not listen to Mag 81 and tell *me* that he doesn’t. Not even just talking about the “I was so rambunctious my grandma threatened to lock me up.” Literally him being bullied and saying “I don’t blame this 13 year old bully bullying and 8 year old. I was a very annoying child.” The “I would read books to distract myself but I couldn’t read books by the same authors because I would notice PATTERNS and get BORED.” (These are not direct quotes as you know) you can not TELL *ME* (ME!? OF ALL PEOPLE? ARE YOU TELLING ME!?) that that is not such and ADHD experience.

Also him rambling about emulsifiers. Also him forgetting he did that. Also the entirety of supplementals. Also his impulsive actions like breaking a table with an axe before considering it was actually doing the opposite of what he thought it did. THE BERATING HE DID TO HIMSELF AFTERWARDS? He just does, okay? I will die on this hill.

Adding onto that, I don’t only headcanon that he has ADHD but I headcanon that he’s undiagnosed. Everyone who writes him finding out that he has ADHD in uni and taking meds is WRONG. /nm Anyone having Martin ask him if he’s taken his meds today is WRONG. /nm This man has never heard of the concept of adults having ADHD have you SEEN HIM!? The poor man is so undiagnosed.

im obsessed with neil newbon the Just Some Guy / Fey Creature energy he has, he dresses like a genderfluid cybergoth pajama model, has the body language of a tiny cat in the form of a 6'2 very large man, the bubbly energy of a middle school girl, the athletic skill of a stuntman, will say the smartest and sweetest and most heartbreaking shit and then 10 minutes later while he's gaming he'll accidentally take off a companion characters undies and flash everybody, wildshape his character into a cat, meow intermittently for 15 minutes and ur not quite sure if he realizes he's still doing it? Then he'll spin the strangest little story flirting with himself of two characters he made up and talking in the voices the whole time, remind you his half wood-elf is VERY stupid and very pansexual, and then leave? The minute i saw his first stream i was like FUCK i guess i'm keeping this guy huh. 10/10

HoO is so funny to me when you actually think about the ages of all the characters. Octavian is 18. Percy and Annabeth are 16, almost 17. Reyna is presumably 16. Frank just turned 16, Jason’s about to turn 16. Leo and Piper are like 15. Hazel’s like 14 and a half, and Nico is 13.

The Death Sibs are both the youngest and oldest on the Argo II. Octavian is a college freshman getting into petty drama with a bunch of high schoolers. He gets told to shut up at one point by a random 8th grader. Everyone is scared of the 8th grader. We Sent A 13 Year Old To Superhell and he came back weirder, Just Like Middle School. TLH was just three high school sophomores being sent to do a task and it going Exactly Like You’d Expect. Percy’s the only demigod on the ship who can legally drive (though Reyna gets her drivers license at some point before TOA). What Is Happening.

i believe Danny is ADHD enough to not realize he doesn't actually have super-durability but has just subconsciously learned to minimize damage as much as possible

Sleepover

PJO Fancast (6/?) → Iñaki Godoy as Leo Valdez

Leo looked like a Latino Santa's elf, with curly black hair, pointy ears, a cheerful, babyish face, and a mischievous smile that told you right away this guy should not be trusted around matches or sharp objects. His long, nimble fingers wouldn't stop moving—drumming on the seat, sweeping his hair behind his ears, fiddling with the buttons of his army fatigue jacket. Either the kid was naturally hyper or he was hopped up on enough sugar and caffeine to give a heart attack to a water buffalo. "Anyway," Leo said, "I hope you've got your worksheet, 'cause I used mine for spit wads days ago. Why are you looking at me like that? Somebody draw on my face again?"

Hi there, as an epileptic person I’m so happy to see your changes to Shadowsight’s character (I was SO disappointed that they removed his seizures!) and that you have a whole section dedicated to it in the medicines overview! It means so much to me to have such genuine representation. The only little note I have is that the technical term for a grand-mal seizure is “tonic-clonic,” not clonic-tonic! Other than that you have some really great and well-researched information ^^

Oh shoot, I didn't realize the order was important! Can you tell me why it should be tonic-clonic and spelling it as clonic-tonic should be avoided, so I can share?

With Shadowsight and Sorreltail, I did my research by looking at educational not-for-profits and trying to make sure to listen to firsthand accounts of what it's like to have it, so that the portrayal was more based in life than medical journals. I'm pretty sure I have an old post floating around somewhere with a bunch of sources and links, in addition to the herb guide you saw.

It really is such a shame they did that with Shadowsight specifically :/ you're not the first to pass through thanking me for putting his epilepsy back. I was recently revisiting the earlier books of TBC to answer an ask (ballooned into an essay) and, man, seeing all the setup, with what I know now, utterly wasted is just devastating.

What I mean is, in Book 1, they're describing his auras from his perspective and how there IS a difference between his seizure-visions and his Ashfur-visions. They're establishing that he DID always have epilepsy, it's just ASHFUR that's new. That was a MAJOR hint that something was wrong! The epilepsy was always part of him, but the possessions weren't!

But then, in Book 4, the team unceremoniously decides that no, it was Ashfur all along. Even the seizures. GoodBYE epilepsy! It was literally just a magic spirit.

Though the "seizures give visions" trope is a bit problematic on its own (like "Blind Seer"), I feel like it's even worse to set up representation, and then just yank it away midway through an arc. Like they couldn't just have him lose the visions but keep the seizures.

Frustrating. But, well, this is MY kitchen and I get to decide the disability rep.

Thanks @helenvader for reminding me about this scene in men at arms. Needed to reread a book before I’ve drawn this, but finally it’s ready;)

Unexpectedly Havelock has a new robe-design here. Lol.

P.S. First time I did something on Discworld that is apparently NOT VetVimes content 😅 Hope you like it)

okay but adhd sirius?? it’s right there!! he’s impulsive as fuck (going after peter, the Prank) and clearly does not think before he does things. It ends up inevitably hurting others or even himself, in the case of his little vacation to azkaban. He also seems to be rather restless or quick to get bored from what I remember reading? There’s more and it’ll come to me-

werewolf jack vampire spot demon race and ghoul crutchie living in a house share together and sending out fake roommate applications to get human victims only to end up with regular ass man and Monster Catnip davey jacobs who just assumes they're all trans and/or neurodivergent.

Yea

criminal mind x percy jackson au where spencer is a son of athena and went to new york to help with the titan war

spencer who also kept his distances with the greek world to focus on his career (not that constantly travelling from one side of the country to the other helps with that). wishes that the camp respected since he worked so hard to get where he’s at

spencer who only periodically got updates on how things were at camp. spencer who only learns about luke’s treason when he makes it to new york. spencer who has no time to process the grief of his relationship with luke before being thrown in a war, easily falling back into his demigod reflexes

spencer who, a few weeks later (he didn’t have it in him to leave before the shrouds were all burned), returns to his job on edge, the trauma and grief still fresh in his mind

spencer who forgets how to act like a mortal and attracts the concern of his team

Haven't been following the James Somerton drama closely but it's become so ridiculous that it's funny

Is no one going to talk about the fact that he said that he thought it was okay for him to mention Vito Russo in the opening credits and then never mention him again because his book was out of print and Russo was dead....

And then in the same breath say that he was 'extending Russo's legacy' like my brother in Christ do you even hear yourself-

I just realised shawn spencer is the only character I've never given my mandatory bpd hc to

You know what? Fuck you. *Bloodbornes your Pinnochio again*
