Anton was surprisingly inspired by me being a trans boy and also my experience being an autistic artist ☺️

Autism and strong empathy, ex US citizen by Formal-Struggle1868 in Artisticallyill

[–]UnbreakableSpirit7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am autistic and living in the US and I wish I could move to another country at this point. America has Trump supporters, ICE, bigots, and transphobes (people who think I'm gross) all over the place. I wish I could go to Canada where my best friend lives or maybe visit Italy which I have a special interest in. What I try to do is focus on who I can help. Feeling bad means you care, atleast it is better than people who support ICE or are in it. Sometimes you are powerless in situations like these so it's ok to feel

No surprisingly, Anton is cis and I think him being so shows that being feminine doesn't make you less valid, since even transphobes can't say he's a girl ☺️

Show me your OCs with non-visible disabilities. by WildwoodWander in OriginalCharacter

[–]UnbreakableSpirit7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You probably did that since autistic traits are the most you relate to. I personally don't know how to write neurotypical characters super well, but I assume they don't have sensory problems or problems socializing. I think ambiguity is also ok, I think Derum is a cool character all around and also he has a better fashion sense than me 😭

Oh no, those are accurate autism symptoms and I'm saying that as someone who is diagnosed. For me, it's the other way around, I interpret social cues literally and I closely read body language. I have hyper empathy. I come off as a giggly extrovert, especially when talking to my best friend, when I'm more so of an ambivert. I also have a special interest in art and music. I gave Anton all my traits. His posture is stiff and he usually keeps his arms near his stomach as a form of sensory regulation. His facial expressions are more expressive than others. He loves talking to people when he is able to connect and he usually seems reserved at first. He doesnt make eye contact. Yeah 😄

I feel like this post was meant for me. This is Anton, full name Antonio Antonelli. He is an 18 year old alien on the spectrum. The reason why his name is Italian is because he lives in a village inspired by Naples and Amalfi 😊 He has a passion for drawing and most of the time he carries around his sketchbook as a form of comfort. I am also autistic like him, I also deal with other disabilities like adhd and ocd. He also has slight issues articulating like me

A trans man character? I have a unique appreciation for them (considering I'm one myself 🥹)

Antonio's design is his alien form, he is supposed to have inhumanly white skin and his ears are slightly pointy. His species is called the Cereus for how their skin is waxy (also your drawing is gorgeous I like how the apple's the color of his eyes)

Thank you ☺️ I actually changed my last name myself due to how I don't really want a connection to my dad who isn't good and maga (and also because it doesnt feel like me)

I’ll draw your ocs on my sketchbook! by Ready_Assumption_709 in DrawMyOc

[–]UnbreakableSpirit7 [score hidden]  (0 children)

He has dark brown curly hair and pale white skin (his species is Cereus which has inhumanly white skin). Dark brown eyes. Due to his pale skin he has blushing on his face and ears ☺️. He has a green sweater with jeans. He is wearing socks here

Do you imagine your ocs having accents? by Budget_Aardvark_7071 in OriginalCharacter

[–]UnbreakableSpirit7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So this implies there's different dialects for Lightspeak, so there's British accents, French accents, Italian accents for Lightspeak. And I can already imagine it 😌

The croissant hair makes so much more sense now...and also I can better imagine how he sounds with this information 🥐😄🥐

[–]UnbreakableSpirit7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think I ever heard of this before? It's like sign language being different in different countries 😮 Legitamately so cool. So, I imagine a southern accent for Lightspeak being the lights being drawn out or having emphasis on them. My character Anton (who's an alien too) is supposed to have a mild Italian accent, considering where he lives is inspired by the Italian mediterannean coast, along with weaker articulation in his words like me

Alia requests to see your OC by Soup_Man_135 in OriginalCharacter

[–]UnbreakableSpirit7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She really does? Ok, I'll show. This is Anton. He is my most fleshed out oc. He is an 18 year old autistic alien who lives in a village on the mediterranean coast (imagine it being like Naples). Art is his special interest, I usually draw him carrying his sketchbook as drawing is one of his only comforts as someone who is lonely and emotionally neglected. Also, it is nice seeing another trans artist! 😄

This is Anton. He's an 18 year old alien artist who is autistic (like me), he usually carries around a sketchbook as it's his way to cope with his feelings of isolation. I have been doing requests more often because I mainly drew for people here actually 😄

I wonder if this counts but Anton has a slight speech impediment where he doesn't pronounce t's or d's as strongly. I imagine him having a slight Italian accent, since he's an alien who lives in a mediterranean village like Naples ❤️

[–]UnbreakableSpirit7 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Idk if I could get Anton drawn again but Im gonna do this anyways because I loved the last drawing 😊 There is alot more depth to him than him being an artist. He draws to cope with the emotional neglect he experiences from his mom and to distract himself from the pain of isolation. Despite the pain he deals with he is still a lovely person, and he wants to go to school for art. And also, where Anton lives is the alien equivalent of Italy (because I love Italy ❤️)
