-nods in agreement with all points- One of the reasons I was so eager to create Sebastian was because neurodivergency isn’t explored a great deal in RP, and it’s such a broad topic that I find it deserves more attention, and more awareness, in how it operates. And it’s rare I can find people I can ‘relate’ to in that regard.

//Mhm well I applaud you and invite you to tell me if I ever do it wrong, cause again, basically neurotypical here and I don’t want to misrepresent ❤ 

NGL that headcanon made me cry a little. As a neurodivergent with a head that is LITERALLY NEVER silent, ever, I can relate so hard and it can be excruciating and basically I WILL HUG YOU, KOSCHEI @_@

//It’s funny because I’ve had people who are nd approach me before about how I write Koschei’s canonical tendency to get overwhelmed and overstimulated as specifically a facet of being nd, and thanked me for it and how they could relate to it, and it’s a huge honor to hear, because if I am nd myself then it’s only margically with some pretty bad PTSD, but honestly? What I base it on in my own life? Is twofold:

A) Chronic illness
and
B) the migraines that I have daily, that every neurologist has told me I basically have to just live with, because they’ve tried every fucking prophylactic med and procedure including the botox shots and I still get them.  And they make everything too much. Too bright too coarse too loud too strong smelling too MUCH.  

This is actually exactly why I was drawn to Simm’s Master over any other Master, even Missy, who is also fabulous, because of all the Masters, Simm’s is the LEAST in control of himself and specifically in the sense of just being constantly overstimulated and bewildered and angry about it.  

Anyway he needs the hugs even if he won’t admit it lmao ❤ And I give you hugs too for your hardships bestie. 

“I have learned, over the years, that we cannot be defined by our past. One of the most important aspects of that is not being too hard upon oneself. Give yourself patience, and kindness, when you find you are able to do so.”

The Master is uncharacteristically still, sluggish and lethargic; if there is one thing anyone who knows him is sure of, it’s that in joy or in rage, in anxiety or sadness, he moves, with the restlessness of steam-loaded pressurized heat.  That he is holding still right now is a testimony to the way that guilt is rotting his innards.  He is not healing; he despairs

When he speaks, head resting on his fingers, slumped in his chair, nothing moves but his mouth.

      “There are children, hundreds and thousands of children, who will never grow up, who do not even have whole bodies to bury, as the direct result of executive choices I made.  There are people who will never get that work promotion, or take that walk in the woods in autumn, or pet their damned dog, or eat their favorite cereal for breakfast, because of me.  There are people who will never kiss their spouses again, and I have the temerity to continue lusting after my best friend, and to try and justify anything I’ve done as a ploy to get that person’s attention.  I don’t have the luxury–the right, even–to be kind to myself now.”  

This might be cheating, but I’d be SO intrigued to see you create an OC. You’re so talented and versatile, a character of your own creation would be really fascinating. (Also you’d totally make a kick ass 13 ;) )

//I have had OC’s in the past :DDDD 

I had a whole OC family in Harry Potter.  They’re kind of inextricably tied with an ex-friend though, ex mostly because we just drifted apart (or well she drifted away and I eventually decided to let her) so I don’t really write them anymore because the main OC was best friends with HER main OC, and she is totally off rping now (as far as I know).  

But oh man it was wonderful. Maybe I’ll bring them back someday, revamp them.  They were the French Renard family, who all went to Beauxbatons until Victor (a Transfiguration scholar) and Odile (a Healer at St. Mungo’s) decided to send their son Alexis and their daughter Margaret to Hogwarts.  Alexis, who just went by “Renard,” was an Animagus (appropriately, a black fox), and was a sixth-year when Harry Potter et al were third-years (Margaret meanwhile was a first-year, and eventually learned that she was a Seer).  Alexis, who was both a charming flirt and a brain, was a Ravenclaw and Margaret, who was sweet and shy, was a Hufflepuff.  

Alexis’s faceclaim was the lead singer of We Are Scientists:

MAN, memories.

I haven’t really done the OC thing since. I’ll think about it!
