Can You Fucking IMAGINE Learning This Kind Of Energy Management, Which Is So Important For Neurodivergent

My 10yo had a couple events at our place today and one friend was going to be coming for both, with five hours in between. To save his parents driving, I offered that he could stay through, but explained when I made the offer that my kids need a break from social time or they'll get drained, so could their kid bring a book or something over for some alone time in the middle of the afternoon for my introverts to recharge? His parents happily complied and I've been chatting with the kids about it. "I'm worried that you guys are having a ton of fun right now because your battery is still charged, so you're not taking a break—I want to make sure that you don't crash and need a recharge right before the party starts tonight, because at that point you won't be able to take your break to recharge." Both kids very seriously listened, agreed, and have been having their chill time separately. One's reading and one's watching YouTube.

Can you fucking IMAGINE learning this kind of energy management, which is so important for neurodivergent people to avoid shutdown/meltdown, before your 30s?

[ID: A flat-color digital drawing of Munkustrap from the musical Cats, from the hips up. His eyes are closed, and he’s grimacing and rubbing his temples, with his ears pressed flat and his tail puffed up.

Fuck yeahh!

ok but LANCELOT THOUGH

NO i’m not talking about abusive Lotor manipulating lance and doing shitty things for the sake of Edgy Fanfiction TM or Lotor being that one asshole ex boyfriend in fics

I’m talking Lotor who sees lance the same way humans see puppies. Lotor the badass villain who goes weak in the knees when this adorable small scrubby awkward human with poofy hair does something dorky in front of him like trying to show off because “i want to protect it” 

Lotor who originally kidnaps lance the first time around because he just wanted an excuse to carry the boy around and pet his hair and it just worked out in his favor that he could use lance as collateral. Lotor who notices Lance getting stressed out and kidnapping him ‘for collateral’ but mostly just to give him a chance to have a nice bath and cuddle and sleep and eat some food. Lance who just gets used to it after a while and learns to just chill until the others come and get him. Lance sighing deeply before braiding lotor’s hair or painting his nails or doing a facial with him in the mean time because ‘i mean what else am I gonna do.’ Lotor being just as high maintenance as Lance about his appearance and  sometimes being a bit of a drama queen (kind of like Howl from Howl’s moving castle) and Lance figuring out how to get him to calm down. Lotor thinks he’s babysitting lance when really it’s the other way around in a lot of ways.

being autistic and using “big words” or sounding unnatural in conversation is like. i am different from everyone else and no one really understands me, so im trying my best to communicate and be understood by using very precise and exact language even if it doesn’t “sound right” in informal settings, so that i might bridge the gap in understanding between us. but now im weird AND talk funny.
