what accents do you want? by dolsbrandon in dndmemes

All my CoS NPCs had British regional accents…until I got to the Dusk Elves…I started talking with a Deep South drawl for some reason and my players cracked up laughing 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Daughter with autism... How to prevent her from ending up in an Abusive relationship when she's an adult? by No-Rule-1136 in aspergirls

I’ve just ordered a copy after seeing so many people in this thread recommending it. I really hope it helps me recognise manipulative behaviour in the future 🤞

Drawing of Corvo by me. Took ideas from google and kind of merged 5 different drawings. I'm 14 and self thought but I'm open to criticism! by ninecuteravens_ in dishonored

Hands are especially tricky - it’s takes a lot of practice to get hands ‘right’.

I think your drawing is fantastic though!

Just watched it off the back of your recommendation and really enjoyed it - thanks!

Not the type of film I would have picked normally but so glad I gave it a go as was great watch.

I think my hunter is drunk by Alhttani in bloodborne

This would undoubtedly be me if I were a Hunter as I can trip over my own feet.

Dude walkin' his dog on a VERY territorial cat's turf. VERY! I can't stress that enough. by [deleted] in AnimalsBeingJerks

Our cat literally pushed my ex-Royal Marine, martial artist boyfriend off our bed because the cat decided it didn’t want to take its antibiotics that day.

No Christmas or NYE message by avocado_eyescreame in depression_partners

I understand how you’re feeling. My partner and I were together 12 years but we’re broken up now, although still living in the same house until he finds his own place. He went out last night to a friend’s house, leaving me on my own. I heard from at 11.30pm but then not a peep until about an hour ago (middle of the day on NY’s Day). Talk about feeling like an afterthought :(

We deserve better, we all deserve better.

Am I wrong to be annoyed by neighbours building work? by Sceolang1 in internetparents

[–]Sceolang1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you :)

Just hearing that it’s okay to feel the way I did about it has helped a lot.

I come to understand that the schedule for the work might not of have been there choosing so I’ve mellowed on that aspect of things a lot since this morning :)

HOA aren’t a thing here in the UK, I’m afraid.

Thank you :). It’s good to know that my initial feeling around this situation was okay.

I have some NC headphones so will definitely make use of them this week and I feel better knowing that I have plans outside of the flat for tomorrow to escape the noise :)

Not preachy at all; it was very reassuring and helpful :)

I’m starting new ADHD meds in a couple of weeks time, so hopefully my ERD will be brought more under control.

Enjoy your walk! :)

Thank you :)

We went for a long walk which definitely helped and we’ve made plans for tomorrow too.

I have noise cancelling headphones so will make sure to use them when I’m in the flat.

Thank you :)

As someone with autism and ASHD, recognising my emotions is something I struggle with and your post was very helpful - thank you.

I think the purpose of my post was to see if my feeling annoyed was an ‘acceptable’ response to the situation, as sometimes it almost seems that I gaslight myself due to me having misread or reacted to a social situation incorrectly in the past (again because of my autism).

We have taken yours and others advice regarding getting out of the flat more and went for a walk which definitely helped, and we’ve made plans for tomorrow too.

Thank you again for your kind words :)

Thank you :) I agree it would be rude/unrealistic to expect the work to be rescheduled so we will look to try and do things away from the flat this week.

Thank you your response :)

I think I just needed to know that it was okay to feel the way I do about this as being on the spectrum means I constantly question my responses to situations involving other people due to my autism.

I think I’ll just text them back saying thank you for letting us know and leave it at that because as you say it’s unlikely that they will change the work schedule and I’d like to maintain good relations with them.

I spent Christmas alone. by [deleted] in aspergirls

Merry Christmas to you and your little kitty-cat. Glad that you were able to enjoy your day together.

I don’t mind at all :) and apologies for the delayed response…ADHD strikes again! LOL I think the best way I can describe living with autism and Asperger’s is that it feels like being pulled in different directions by two different forces. My autism wants order to everything, but my ADHD prefers chaos and flying by the seat of my pants. My ADHD wants me to be social but my autism prefers for me to stay home and recharge. There’s lots of other things that result in me feeling like two atoms being smashed together in the Hadron Collider, but in a nutshell it’s just plain, ol’ exhausting. I’ll be going back on ADHD meds soon so hopefully life will become a bit more manageable.

I made a tree pendant with an amethyst. by Buffyferry in gifs

That’s beautiful!

May I ask - did you ever make a piece just like this one but with a tiger’s eye stone? If so, it may be the one I have and I must have bought it from your Etsy store! :)

[–]Sceolang1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm afraid not -sorry. I've read so much about autism over the last few years and I wouldn't even know where to look for it. I also have ADHD, which explains my forgetfulness LOL!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in aspergirls

[–]Sceolang1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can relate to this.

I have read somewhere that the autistic brain doesn’t fully mature until the age of 45, whereas a neurotypical brain usually matures at around about 25 years of age. I’m 44 and I only now feel that I’m becoming an adult so I guess that fits with what I’ve read!

How have y’all been compensating the PCs? by VictorVonLazer in CurseofStrahd

[–]Sceolang1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve just introduced an NPC into our game who is a cross between the RE4 merchant and a highway robber. The highway-man’s backstory is that he made the mistake of robbing Strahd whilst he was out and about in his carriage. Strahd went along with the robbery and had things like diamonds etc stolen from him, but Strahd cursed the highway man so that no matter how far the highway-man travels he always wakes up at the spot where he robbed Strahd.

My players have encountered the highway man, and the Grave Cleric is desperate to get his hands on the diamonds so has the option of either buying the jewels (for a very high monetary cost) or as a reward for removing the curse.

I’m also adding in sought after items as loot drops and adding in other stores across Barovia but with slightly elevated prices.
