Prompt: Comforted by a Friend/Lover/Caregiver
WARNING: HEAVY TOPICS
This one is right up my alley. I won't say I hate myself completely, but I definitely have insecurities. As someone on the autism spectrum, I'm more or less trapped in a world not made for me. I'm haunted by memories of every stupid thing I've either done or said in the past, along with this nagging feeling that I'm wired wrong, as opposed to just wired differently. I find myself resenting my quirks, to the point where one of the few things I like about getting so many requests is that it keeps me from flooding both my accounts with my hyperfixations. Matter of fact, I almost abandoned this challenge out of fear of people either calling me out for posting thirty-one consecutive drawings of my hyperfixations, or worse, accusing me of being a pedophile, since two of my three chosen characters are underage.
Anyway, I've had a coping mechanism since middle school: imagining my comfort characters experiencing heartbreak, guilt, grief, rejection, et cetera, sad scenarios to pool my emotions into. Here's a taste of what goes on in my head.
- As some of you may have guessed, this is why I gave Daniel such a rough past, along with it being his catalyst for adopting age regression. His experience as a Pawniard who can't stand hunting and killing somewhat parallels my struggles as a neurodivergent individual, along with his reluctant attendance of the Pack stemming from a desire to be considered "normal".
- I've written a few different iterations of AB Double D, but they pretty much all come down to him adopting age regression to cope with his parents' neglect and unreasonably high standards. Ed understands. His parents don't show him much love either.
- It's implied, even stated in Season 3's Cat Orgy, that Shelley's bad temper and violent tendencies stem from insecurities, which I can absolutely vouch for, as I was just like her in middle school (hence why I like her more than most). Unlike her, I was never super concerned about my appearance, and, being an antisocial and asexual girl, I wasn't interested in either friends or a boyfriend. My insecurities then were similar to mine now: feeling I'm stupid and wired wrong. Like her, however, said insecurities created pent-up anger and drove me to lash out at everyone around me. My anger had cooled down a bit by the time I started watching South Park, but I still realized how similar she was to me. Seems crazy to identify with a character who tries to kill her brother.
That's it, folks. Sorry this one was so depressing. I promise future installments will be more lighthearted.
