one of my more empowering moments in recent times has been starting to use the "actually autistic" tag
cause i have a diagnosis but it's mild autism and even my neurodivergent friends kinda. they joke about it but i'm not seen as....actually autistic? like yeah I'm some brand of neurodivergent and one friend kiiind of saw the autistic streaks but i mask so hard and so subconsciously that well. i'm not really considered autistic
until ofc, i open the autism tag and relate hard or watch woo young woo or monk and relate hard and uh yes. i am happy to be autistic actually. it feels nice to belong to a diverse bunch of weirdos (affectionate)

Does anyone love microwave sound but hate the beeping
i HAVE to stop it before it beeps because it freaks me out and makes me literally wanna cry uh but i will run across the house just to stop it and i have to count the seconds when i leave so i know what time to come back to it because it stresses me out to hear the beep so much i just want a quiet microwave ple-

Every time I see one of those "autistic people are bad at conversation" things I become more and more convinced that the person writing them just don't know what fun is. What do you mean you wouldn't be delighted to learn everything humanity currently knows about this one species of endangered snail? You're telling me you don't want an in depth breakdown of the symbolism in a game you've never heard of? Learning new things is bad now? Sucks to be you I guess.
I've known multiple allistic people seek me out for enthusiastic palaeontology rambles, so it's not even something only auties get. I genuinely think some people in the medical field just feel the need to pathologise styles of conversation that they don't personally use.

Find the Words Tag
Thanks for the tag @tabswrites!
I'll tag @oh-no-another-idea, @space-writes, @sam-glade, @flock-from-the-void, and anyone else who sees this and wants to jump in with the words twice, please, people, and guide. As always, no pressure, though!
My words were haunting, sign, color and train. Without any further ado, here are some snippets from my wip The Magician and Ms. Psychic!
Haunting
A haunting chill crept up my spine, and my hands unconsciously curled into tight fists as my brain caught up to what was going on. “Ms. Psychic!” My voice came out about twice as loud as I intended. “What the fuck?” Ms. Psychic appeared behind the cops, cape billowing behind her in the non-existent wind. She regarded me with her usual deep frown and disapproving squint, but she offered no explanation for her bullshit. I pointed my knife at her. “I told you to come alone.”
Sign
“I… I’ll come clean myself. Just… just give me a chance to fix some of what I started first.” I took a deep breath, then tacked on a shaky, “Please.” Hermes didn’t run off, which I supposed was a good sign, but he didn’t sound too pleased with my request, either. “Give me one reason why I should trust you.”
Color
“Maybe I’m tired of my nemesis looking like shit all the time.” I crossed my arms. “Seriously, if you’re going to fuck with all my plans, then at least have the decency to color-coordinate with me so we look good when people see us on the internet.”
Train
“What I’m trying to say is…” My voice wavered slightly, and I trained my gaze down towards my shoes. “If your dad’s not going to respect you, then you don’t have to respect him. There’s no shame in cutting that crap from your life.” “Hey.” Claire’s voice came out much softer than before. She placed a gentle hand on my shoulder. “My dad and I don’t always see eye to eye, but it’s not like that.” “Good.” I swallowed the lump in my throat. “Cuz if it was, he’d be saying goodbye to his spleen.”
THE MAGICIAN AND MS. PSYCHIC TAGLIST (lemme know if you want to be added or removed!)  @adaparkwrites, @andiwriteunderthemoon, @percvalx, @annoyingwritingtrash, @absolute-nonsense-scribblings, @gray-sometimes-writes, @whatevercomestomymind, @tragedyshow, @cookiecutterwrites, @poore-choice-of-words, @magic-is-something-we-create, @frvnwrites, @sirius-xm, @dontcrywrite, @wildswrites, @autie-auden-writes, @cherrybombfangirlwrites, @enchanted-lightning-aes, @lena-rambles, @wordwizards, @another-white-hole, @oh-no-another-idea, @space-writes, @thescatteredscribbles

Out Of The Shadows and Into The Neon (Part 5)
Donnie tugs on the bottom of Draxum's robe. "Papa Barry?"
Draxum lifts his goggles and looks down. "Yes, little one?"
"Can I watch you work?"
"I don't have safety goggles small enough for you."
"Please?" Donnie's lip wobbles. "I wanna learn chem-chem-ass-try."
Draxum smiles softly at the mispronunciation. "Alright," he caves, "But I have to make your goggles from my mystic vines. The texture bothers your father."
"I'll be okay!" Donnie chirps, raising his arms to be picked up. "Uncle Angelo says I have, um, not the same!"
"Not the same what?"
"Aut-autis-awe-ti-sum!" Donnie nods. "I'm like Dad but different!"
"I see." Draxum picks up two small glass slides, clean ones of course, and works his mystic vines around them to create the tiny goggles. He puts them on Donnie and then turns back to his work. "So, you'd like to learn biology as well as mechanics?"
"Machines are cool," Donnie says, watching in awe as Draxum prepares a slide, "But this is important."
"Important?" Draxum can't keep the amusement out of his voice. "I agree, but what makes you say that?"
"I know it is." Donnie nods to himself again. "It's gonna helps us all the time, and-and it'll help my friend."
"Your friend?"
"She's not real."
"Ah, your imaginary friend. How will it help her then, if she's not real?"
"She's half alien!" Donnie pats his stomach. "Little squishy things, and-and she has red hair and blue eyes and she's really nice and-and I really wish she was real, and she can throw stuff around with her mind and-"
"She sounds quite intimidating."
"Yeah! And she's a ninja too and-and Raph said I shouldn't have imaginary friends because I have real brothers but I like her." Donnie is bouncing where he sits in Draxum's lap as he rambles. "And this is important to her."
"Because she's half alien."
"Yeah!"
"Your fathers fought aliens, you know."
"Yeah! Auntie Cass told us! Did you fight them?"
"I was... busy."
"With what?"
"... Important... works."
"What kinda works?"
"... I... was in Tahiti." Draxum keeps his eyes firmly pressed to the microscope.
"Is that a lab?"
"It's an island."
"An island lab?"
"... I was on vacation."
"... At a lab?"
Draxum sighs. "Donnie, how about you look through this microscope for me? Tell me what you see." He lifts the tot up and, after adjusting the microscope a bit, holds Donnie up to look through it.
Donnie gasps! "There's little things!"
"That's right. These are cells."
"Cells?"
"They make up our bodies."
"... Like Legos?"
"What are Legos?"
"Toys, you can make things with them. I made a car!"
"Hmm... then yes, like Legos. These are cells from your brother."
"Why?"
"I was curious."
"Is he sick?"
"No."
"Okay." Donnie doesn't look up from the microscope. "Papa Barry?"
"Yes?"
"Can I learn with you all the time?"
Draxum's heart melts. He tries not to show it on his face. "I think we can arrange that."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Uuuugggghhhh!" Mikey flops over onto his back. "Leoooo! I don't wanna do it again!"
"But you wanted to be a ninja!" Leo looks at the page again. "It's fun!"
"Not now! We've been doing it for years!"
"Nu-uh! It's an hour," Raph says, crossing his tiny arms.
"How do you know?"
"Dad showed me how." He points at the clock on the wall.
"What?! When?!"
"When I got mad at him for being gone too long."
"No fair! Show me, show meeeeee!"
Raph shakes his head.
"Why nottttttttt!"
"I don't wanna."
"RAPHHHHHHH!"
"Stop!" Leo puts his hand over Mikey's mouth, and then squeals in disgust when Mikey licks his palm. He yanks his hand away. "We're ninjas! Ninjas aren't loud!"
"Our dads are loud!"
"Not when they're ninjas!"
"You don't know that!"
"Uncle Casey said! He said my dad is the quietest ninja ever!"
"All of our dads are." Raph balls up his little fist. "Stop saying your dad is better than mine!"
"I'm not!"
"Are too!"
"Boys?"
They all yelp and jump into a huddle. April looks down at them with an amused expression.
"Auntie!" Leo squeaks. "We-we were playing."
Raph nods rapidly. "Playing, um, wrestling!"
"Wrestling ninjas!" Mikey adds, peeking out from where he hides behind Raph.
Raph and Leo both glare at Mikey. he laughs nervously.
"Really?" April says. She nods at the page clipped to Donnie's Lil' Doctor Kit clipboard. "So what's that?"
"Uhhhhhhh- a comic?" Leo tries for a convincing grin.
"Not like any comic I've ever read." She's still smiling. "Look, if you guys are that eager to start training, I can talk to your dads about some basic stuff, okay?"
"But... but Auntie Cass got in trouble for-for teaching us."
"No, she got in trouble for lying, taking you to a human class, and not getting your dads' permission. I am going to talk to your dads, and we're gonna train in here once they say we can."
"Can Donnie?" Mikey blurts out, suddenly begging on his knees at April's feet. "He wants to be a ninja too!"
"Donnie can too," April assures, patting Mikey's head. "You think any of us are gonna let Draxum be his only teacher? No way. I promise, by this time tomorrow your Auntie April will be showing you guys how to punch and kick like the best!"

🧪 Do you research for your fics?
🎨 If someone were to make fanart of your work, what fic or scene would you hope to see?
📚 Is there a fanfic or fanfic writer you recommend?
Hi there Autie ^-^
🧪 Do you research for your fics?
Some? I did a lot of deep diving in season 1 into the source material to get characterizations right. Then I do occasionally look into specific things I might not know about. Like when I wanted Marcy to ramble about different farm improvements that could be made back in chapter 4 of awiw or the layout of old time sailing ships during the pirate chapters.
🎨 If someone were to make fanart of your work, what fic or scene would you hope to see?
Oh man I am always so flattered to see fanart, so to start I just want to say thank you to everyone who took time to draw for this story.
That said, I think a pick from Anne and Marcy having fun in the snow during the Hiber Day chapter. Particularly going down the magic-sled together. Or the moment when Marcy is being emotionally vulnerable with Anne. Depending on if the artist is feeling more angst or fluff.
📚 Is there a fanfic or fanfic writer you recommend?
I answered this more thoroughly a while back but I can't find the ask, so I will just pitch Lesbian Newt Found Family again cause I really like it.
Human AU where former Olympian Yunan adopts Marcy after her parents were awful to her and calls her old college roommate/unrequited(?) crush Olivia to help cause she is in no way prepared to take care of a child. It's very cute and sappy and I have reread it several times. It's just got good vibes.

i did this whole ramble about trans/gnc companion hcs to joel and mort but i will not subject you all to walls of text (unless people really do want me to lol, i even managed to talk myself into hcing some that i never knew i thought worked until now like scourge) HOWEVER i will say i am wholeheartedly a transfemme dorne truther
she's the most autie transfemme to ever femme ive seen in my entire life
this also reminds me to continue my ds trooper playthrough sometime (and maybe remake turaa as a palette cleanser and romance her again, hc'ing again as queerplatonic)
others include transfemme jaesa, kira, and lana, butch vette and akaavi, transmasculine/butch risha, then transmasc koth, andronikos and felix. maybe she/her transmasc mako
also theron's gender being guy but slightly left of that is funny to me like 'idk just work here' transmasc and/or genderqueer edition
super special addition of transfeminine scourge making a late realization way after breaking control from the emperor and losing the attached immortality, and the same with arcann even tho these some of these characters i don't really think about much, i just think they're neat

so this is going to sound like it builds up to an ad (it does not) but one of my major fears about one day becoming a parent was my sensitivity to sound. as someone who keeps the fan at a lower speed because it's too noisy at full speed during what has been declared a heatwave week in my district, i had serious reservations about my capacity to keep my shit together when my kid is crying or yelling or in any other way being noisy, as children invariably are.
and well. i saw this advert for earplugs which had a quiz to find out the right earplug for you. and it asked you, hey what is the kind of noise cancellation you're looking at. and the entire parenting thing was an option. like "i want to hear enough to know what's going on but while protecting my eardrums" or smth to that effect was an option.
and the sheer relief that washed through me. that. earplugs. reusable earplugs that don't noise cancel to the extent of cutting you off from the world exists. because honestly absolute quietness is not smth i can afford in my daily life. i have roads to cross lmao. but !! even though these earplugs are hella expensive, one day i will gift thwm to meself (cause i'm the only person other than my psychiatrist who recognizes that I'm autistic). i will save up and i will reduce my misery. one day.
and i say this as someone who routinely uses their earphones as earplugs by just not playing any music. it is...a good makeshift but it drains battery and sometimes i click it accidentally and it starts playing smth or opens up google assistant(god assistant is SUCH a nuisance) and also just. it cancels so much that i speak in a whisper and the people around me get exasperated because my sound processing is completely thrown off and yes.
i have spent the last hour staring longingly at earplugs on the internet and I can't say i have any regrets i want it rlly badly.

I'm it's very random but i kinda wanna know this. How did you get into writing like what made you realise that it's something you wanna do?
Ps : i love you <333
okay, so, I have always been a storyteller, actually have a degree in it (sadly things that happened there gave me really bad ptsd and ruined it all for me, so that's why I'm not gonna be specific and use the actual words to say what I used to do) but I never really wrote the stories down, they were always told in other ways. I remember really loving it in school as a kid when the teacher was just like hey, write a story this week! and it was always the part of that subject that I truly excelled at, but maybe since I'm dyslexic, I was always too intimidated to try and write any of my stories down, tell them in that medium.
but then, as I got older, I started reading stories that just hit different, with main characters that I could truly mirror myself in (like the brown sisters trilogy, I remember that was one of them). it was bittersweet because it was both such an amazing feeling to read something that just made complete sense to me, but at the same time so sad that that was such a rare thing to see myself be represented like that. and I've always been good at relating to literally everyone under the sun (hyperempathetic autie, what up, what up, yo), but this just put it all into perspective.
it was a whole big thing, I remember it really went on over the summer/the end of 2021. asking myself all of these questions about well, what really is a good story? what is a good story to me? what do I like? pushing myself away from the stern boxes and rules that were hammered into me from an early age.
and then kinda because I found it very difficult to find stories that took that into account and for example didn't just lean on terrible communication for the sake of drama, also the fact that I kept reading things and thinking of way better ways to (to my personal taste) tell the story.
so therefore, one day, I just jumped into it. it's really only been a little over a year (think my earliest doc is from end of feb or early march 2022) but it feels like it's been so much longer. and because I am me, when I do something, I motherfucking do it. so by end of march last year, I wrote essentially every single day and its been like that ever since.
there are a lot of layers as well that I've talked in length with my therapist about it being me reclaiming a skill I was always praised for, my whole life, that got crushed and ruined and turned from the one thing that dragged me through my traumatic youth into the one thing that makes wanna die today. I am reclaiming it, I am taking back something that some very terrible people ruined for me.
I could ramble on about this forever, because it's kinda a lot, but I think that now you get the idea of how I got into writing.
p.s. I love you too <333

Hi, I hope you had a lovely Christmas yesterday or any holiday you celebrate on that day.
I just wanted to say that your latest post really resonated with me, I first got into dangan ronpa at 16 years old by a friend who told about it and I’m now 22 years old meaning it been one my comforts and hyper interest for overs six years. It been interesting because like you my friend lost interest and we drifted apart until we were no longer friends and I did other meet with who enjoy the games but they two got bored of the topic over time, although I have other interests such Pokemon, Digimon and other games and I love talking animations and films. It just funny how this game series has been with me for over 6 years but I don’t regret it because it one the reason I got the courage to start posting my art online and one my first fandom I talk to people, yes it rocky here or there but I had a lovely time sharing my art and improving my art.
Sorry for the rambling but as a fellow autie or autistic adult, it really hit home ha ha I made jokes in my head telling dr so are gonna leave yet you done and it like nope I be staying rent free in your mind. I will say my love of dr focus more dr2 because that the one I most attached to. Yes,drawing the silly chef make my brain happy but that’s okay. Also I’m bit shy when sending an ask publicly.
ps enjoy what you love and enjoy your art, whatever make happy and keeps a smile on your face.
Hi there!
First of all, I hope you had an amazing holiday too. It was a fun time. Made homemade peppermint patties, I got a few Murder mystery board games. It was a good time.
First of all, I hope you had an amazing holiday too. It was a fun time. Made homemade peppermint patties, I got a few Murder mystery board games. It was a good time.
Secondly, I’m really glad someone related a bit to how I felt too. The thing about hyperfixation is that a lot of it makes me feel powerless. Being obsessed with something and hyper focusing on it in real time to learn all its ins and outs can be so fun. It helps you find friends in other fandoms and such. But then, when it’s all you can focus on, you start to alienate people around you without even realizing that you’re doing it. People are genuinely polite and they don’t want to cut you off. And by the time they tell you something is wrong and that you’re driving them away with your interests, it’s too late. They’re gone.
And like… it sucks. It’s a hard truth to swallow and I really struggle trying to be more about other people. I want to be more open about that since I’m an adult who has now reached her 30s. I think it��s very valid to admit that I’ve struggled with this my whole life. I’ve always wanted to relate to others, to find and keep friends and then be validated for my interests. But last year, things came crashing down hard.
A former friend wrote me an entire three page letter on my flaws and a good portion of that was about my hyperfixations and how I don’t listen or hear them. And it drove them away. I felt utterly crushed and I think from then on, I had been trying to lessen my love for DR.
Ultimately, I just don’t think it’s a good thing to lose what makes you happy in the world. Even some silly piece of media. Or even just a character you identify within a piece of media. Of course, we can’t bombard the world with it as much, but those things that we obsess over are still for us too even as we’re trying to improve ourselves and work out our issues: neurodivergent or otherwise.
Danganronpa is a series that I think has a lot of love put into it by its creator, writers, artists, musicians, and fandom. I think that’s really freaking rad. I think it’s characters have something for everyone. I think it’s heavily flawed, but also vibrant and brilliant. I think it’s revolutionized murder mysteries in gaming and visual novels as a genre. That’s awesome. I don’t want to ignore how I feel about that.
Thank you for your words and encouragement. I really do feel that in my heart and I appreciate you and your art as well. No one draws a cuter TeruTeru than you! :3

I haven't seen OSO since OSO 4 came out, what did I miss?
Also I heard at least one of the characters is now Non-binary in some way but I don't know who.
YEAAAAA TART IS NONBINARY very awesome for fem it was like. revealed IN an episode too when fey asked for crayon box to change feir pronouns i tyhink that was really cool. theres a ton of others trans characters that arent revealed in episode, its kinda just. there. but YEAA trangener. ANDSO MUCH HAPPENED LEMME TELL YA OKAY SO.
EPISODE FIVE WAS THIS CHALLENGE WHERE THEY WERE ALL LIKE. told to go take pictures and stuff in groups. there';s also OOOO SCARY CREATURE. guarana ends up being safe and asks to judge. AND AND in the begining of the episode there's this whole thing where graffiti and glowing heart make soda cans explode and glowing heart ends up exploding part of the dome like inside of the dome.
ANYWAYS so theres also like. idk how much youalready KNOW abt oso but the thing with pitcher;s mood changing when an object's placed inside him is a big plot point at one bit in the episode. and GOD its so cool. i lov epitcher.
ALS OALSO its implied graffiti's having some issues with guarana which GOD i could ramble about for so long. i want to talk about guarana and graffiti more oh my god i NEED to. i need to im so normal about them.
anyways without spoiling too much thats a little rundown of the plot and also bits i myself really liked. they play lazer tag in episode six and its really neat. nothing too plot changing goes on, no big like. arc things iirc, aside from the guarana and graffiti's relationship getting a little more rocky, AND AND AT ONE POINT putty and pitcher have a little conversation and pitcher is given some headphones anfd GOD its autism to autis mcommunication you dont even know.........
