Anyways I think Patton should be taller and that’s because. 🧍‍♂️

it is a horrible day to be q!tubbo right now holy shit

theres already tons of merry christmas posts for people who have a bad experience with holidays or have money problems or family issues...

But I wanna say

Merry christmas to those with health problems. Those with chronic illnesses, disabilities, pains, those who are in a very bad health condition, those who aren't in such a bad condition but still feel absolutely terrible and feel guilty because they think they shouldn't complain, those who just have a minor issue but it had to happen at christmas and now the day is ruined, and many more

to all of you

My thoughts are with you, you're not alone, you deserve to experience a happy christmas too

Also I have A Lot of internal rules when drawing The Characters -- one for Alfonse is. He's GOTTA have really nice thighs. Cause he does!!!! But equally as important. He's gotta have a cutting board ass. Flattest ass you've ever seen. Because he does. Canonically.

Your honour, im bawling

I WANT TO DRAW LET ME SIT UP WITHOUT WANTING TO DIE PLEASE

need to apologise for being so inactive on here again

this account for the most part is for me to post art for others to enjoy

but between developing carpal tunnel syndrome in both my wrists and switching meds for my illness, all my art has come to a stop as of recent

i am saving up for wrist supports so i can at least draw without severe pain, but i feel like i’ve been unfair in keeping people out of the loop here so i apologise deeply for that 🙏🙏

Not that I did the math or anything but @adjacentperception mentioned an idea to me roughly two weeks ago, and we started longform RP on the idea, and in the last 12 days we have written a combined 201,488 words.

I have created a second Words Georg. The world is not ready for us.

Had real bad anxiety and now I'm having heart palpitations. Fucking hate it here.

I hope I get to be the first person to crochet every Pokemon I think that would be neat

APOLLO NMS IS AUTISTIC-CODED 1/2

here's the google doc for much better reading! (also contains a small epilogue)

Let's look at their physical characteristics first. 

1. Stimming

Everyone who’s seen Apollo at a holo terminus knows the thing they do with their fingers: a repetitive movement that never ceases. They are literally STIMMING! For those who don’t know, stimming (aka self-stimulating behavior) involves engaging in repetitive movements, which helps with improving concentration and alleviating anxiety, and often it is done unconsciously. Now don’t tell me that’s just their idle animation. They could’ve chosen any other thing for them to do that does not straight up look like hand flapping, one of the most prevalent stims out there - as well as not making it repetitive and constant.

2. Footing (toe walking)

Another characteristic is a small, but very special detail: their footing.  

(picture credit to @speci-society - they were the first to point this out! annotations by me)

Their ‘heels’ are off the ground, and the two plates which do make contact with the ground are more like shoe soles - think of tiptoeing while wearing slippers. This is very reminiscent of toe walking, another trait associated with autism. The name is pretty straightforward: walking on toes without the heels touching the ground, which is thought to be due to sensory processing and motor issues.

3. Sensory processing issues

Interestingly, Apollo's body is synthetic - meaning that they cannot sense the world around them through touch. In terms of physical sensitivity, they must be quite detached from the world. Usually when talking about sensory processing issues, it is about an overload of senses to the point of discomfort. Though in Apollo's case, I think it is rather the opposite of that; their senses are void. Because well, There’s no way you could possibly have nerves in metal. They’d have to rely on something else entirely in order to sense every time they come into contact with an object (including their footfalls on solid ground). Likely they have other means of sensing things - different from the usual organic way. I’m not sure how their body exactly works, but since they still possess an organic brain, neuroplasticity must’ve done loads to it so that they could properly adjust to their body. Can’t imagine how the first days must’ve been like for them.

4. Motor issues

And possibly, they may still have issues in controlling their mechanical limbs (motor issues) despite the neuroplasticity - or rather, carrying out complex tasks with them - especially their hands, they don’t look dexterous at all but rather very cumbersome. As well as their arms and shoulders, all seem to be very inflexible. In my opinion, Apollo is (borderline) disabled, as they likely do not have the same capabilities as an abled person.

5. No facial expressions

They have no ‘face’ - so no facial expressions either. They also can’t make eye contact. Autistics are known to struggle with facial expressions - and especially eye contact - in conversations. I’m not sure whether it’s a blessing or not for Apollo to be unable to make eye contact with anyone, because that’s just about the most uncomfortable thing to do (for me at least), and yet it’s so weirdly important in face-to-face communication at the same time. To physically express emotions must be quite hard for them, therefore they likely have to compensate through body language. A notable one is a certain tendency to tilt their head: “as the hologram recedes, Apollo's head turns to the side ever so slightly, as if sighing, saddened.” Due to them having no facial expressions, I think it could be pretty hard for anyone to tell if they’re listening to them or not. I am saying this out of my own personal experience. Okay story time! When I was younger it was kind of unclear to others whether I was paying attention to them or not due to my lack of eye contact. This led to me finding an alternative to that: head nodding! I tend to nod my head along as people talk to me. This way it’s clear to people that I am in fact listening without having to directly make eye contact with them. Perhaps Apollo does a similar thing to indicate that they’re paying attention.

Pt. 1 < pt.2

Highkey wish i had Hiruma's voice so I could narrate my own fic in his voice, and laugh hysterically as I try to narrate Sena's thoughts through Hiruma's imitation of Sena.

Listen, how fucking hilarious would it be if Hiruma's badass yakuza/gangster voice suddenly trembles in a wet-eyed bby kitten way, while he murmurs, "Hiruma-san... why?"

goodnight .... 🥪

god keeps nerfing me with various mental and physical ailments to prevent me from climbing up to his home and banging on his windows demanding answers, i think
