I want a post-apocalypse novel about a non-verbal, autistic teenager whose special interest is apocalypses. For years, she has read and watched everything on the topic and she has an abundance of theoretical information. Then the apocalypse arrives and she suddenly has to leave her routines and apply that information. She finds a group of other survives, but they shun her because she can’t speak, because she has meltdowns and shutdowns, motoric issues and executive dysfunction. No one else in the group of survives knows sign language and no one has the time to read what she tries to write, so she is incapable of communicating with them and they deem her incompetent. She has to go off on her own, where she meets a deaf girl who has also been shunned despite being an excellent shot. They both know sign language and continue as a team, a team that grows while they travel through a post-apocalyptic world and meet new disabled people who are also on their own and who joins them.

AUs for Disabled/Chronically ill OTPs
(I felt we were lacking in AUs for Disabled and Chronically ill characters, so here’s some! Please feel free to add your own! :D)
- You thought I’d been staring at you all night and wanted you to come over, but really I’m just blind and was looking nowhere. At least your voice is pretty. AU
- Nobody cleared the snow off the already not up-to-code ramp, and your wheelchair flipped as you tried to go up. I came to help you but I’ve slipped too and now we’re both on the ground. AU
- I spilled an entire hot cup of coffee all over you I’m so sorry I have MS and my hands aren’t cooperating today. (I’m helping wipe you down and gosh you’re cute). AU
- You’re the only other Deaf person at this university, and I don’t particularly like you. But you’re the only one who can talk smack with me in ASL so I guess we can be study partners. AU
- The store kicked me out after saying that my psychiatric support dog wasn’t a real service dog so you bought the tea I was trying to get and rushed out after me to make sure I got it.AU
I’m an amputee, and when I was getting out of my car I got yelled at by a guy for using the handicap spot so I took off my prosthetic leg and threw it at them. You watched this happen and are laughing so hard you had to use your inhaler. AU
- I have a chronic illness and have to work from home when I have a flare up/feel especially ill. You’re the one our boss always send to deliver me my work. AU
- I have Cystic Fibrosis and you take the same bus as me everyday. I don’t know your name but you always have tissues to hand me with only smile when I have a coughing spell. AU
- Your electric wheelchair ran out of battery in the middle of the side walk and now I’m trying to use my manual chair to help pull you to the nearest repair shop. AU
- The office of accessibility paired us up saying that we would make good friends but I’ve never met you before and I already think you’re annoying. AU
- I’m a defense attorney who has dwarfism and you’re the prosecutor I often go up against. We’re in court when the judge starts using infantilizing language and you pause the judge’s opening statements to complain about how many cases you’ve lost to me. AU
- We’re roommates at the hospital and you won’t shut up. I’m trying to get some sleep over here. AU
- i’m in a manual wheelchair and my arms are exhausted so you offered to tie a rope to me and pull me like a sled dog with your electric wheelchair AU
- we’re in the same class and it has a killer attendance policy but we’re both in the hospital a lot so when one of us can’t go the other skypes them in AU
- we’re both Deaf and you can hear some low tones and i can hear some high tones so we’ve decided to interpret what the other can’t hear. it kinda works AU
- our university’s services for students with disabilities office has stairs leading up to it and our professors won’t give us the accommodations we need without a letter from them. wanna camp out in front of the dean’s office with me? AU
- i’m Deaf and you’re blind and our professor thought we should be partners for this project for some reason, and there are several easier ways to get around this but instead we’re learning tactile sign instead of working on this ppt presentation AU
- we’re both Deaf and the group we’re in are refusing to do anything as basic as not cover their mouths when they talk so we’ve abandoned them AU
- some asshole on the train isn’t getting out of the wheelchair space for you so i threw my cane at him AU
- i hate you and everything you stand for but you’re also the only other physically disabled person on campus so i guess we’re friends now AU
- our school disabled the elevators so people would “take the stairs” and “get more exercise”, and apparently we don’t fucking exist so hey do you want to hang out with me this week since we can’t go to class? AU
ME:
the supermarket was out of trolleys but the basket is too heavy for me and i had to sit down in the middle on the aisle to rest and you came to sit with me so it looked on purpose AU
i was enjoying talking to you so much that i stayed out too late at a party and got brain fog so you volunteered to make sure i got home ok AU
we had to move class to a different room across campus and the professor says that a brisk walk will do us good but i can’t keep up so you walk with me and offer to carry my laptop AU
Pride and Prejudice AU where Darcy and Lizzie are both girls, Lizzie is an lgbtqiap activist while Darcy’s family is extremely conservative and homophobic. Funnily enough, it’s still called Pride and Prejudice.
Someone needs to make this a YouTube series.
JANE AND BINGLEY ARE GIRLS TOO. (Caroline Bingley is a boy.) So Lizzie is super super pissed that Darcy talked her best friend into going back in the closet and breaking Jane’s heart.
I almost like it better if Bingley’s still a boy because the thing that I’ve always liked (as a story thing, not as an “I approve of this belief” thing) is that Darcy had no particular problem with JANE (other than not being sure Jane loved Bingley), his problem with Jane was her FAMILY.
Which: he has a point. Jane and Lizzie’s family are pretty badly behaved and kind of rude and imagine having Mrs Bennet for a mother in law for your entire life?
Darcy’s objections to Jane as a match were all behaviour-based via her family; it’s Lady Catherine’s to Lizzie that were based in What She Was.
(And the Bennets actually translate just fine all by themselves: Mr Bennet is an acidic old tenured prof or something, Mrs Bennet is SUPER INAPPROPRIATE HIPPY WOMAN who sees no problem with Kitty and Lydia wandering around half-dressed/etc because it’s all NATURAL dear oh poo don’t be so stuffy, while Mary’s an irritating born-again who lectures everyone about sin.)

POSSIBLY THE BEST CROSSOVER I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE
BECAUSE ELIZABETH WOULD BE SO NOT INTO IT AND RELUCTANT TO TRY AND DRIFT WITH DARCY BECAUSE HE’S SUCH AN ASS HE’S SO HAUGHTY HE’S SUCH A FUCKING SNOB AND SHE HEARD HIM SAY THAT SHE’D BE AN INTOLERABLE DRIFT PARTNER SO FUCK HIM
BUT THEY SPARRED (DANCED OHMYGOD) AND THEY MOVED TOGETHER SO FLUIDLY AND SHE DID FEEL IT BUT SHE DOESN’T LIKE HIM!!! SHE CAN’T SHARE HER HEAD WITH A DUDE THAT MAKES HER SO FURIOUS
BUT HE TRAILS AFTER HER LIKE A FUCKIN PUPPY AND IS SUDDENLY ALL NICE AND TRIES TO DEFEND HIMSELF LIKE “I FIND IT HARD TO ATTEMPT LOOKING FOR DRIFT COMPATIBILITY IN OTHERS” AND ELIZABETH’S LIKE “WELL YOU SHOULD FUCKIN PRACTICE”
GIVE IT TO ME
I know Steve is really talented with his shield and is like an expert with it
but just imagine him smacking it in his face
or tripping over it
or waking up in the middle of the night and he shuffles off to the bathroom only to step on the edge of the shield and it smacks him in the shin and he curses loudly enough to wake up the other Howling Commandos who just sit up and start laughing at the way Steve is holding onto his leg and swearing
Seriously, though, super-soldier or not, watching Steve learn to use his shield must’ve been A+ comedy!
Steve throws it at some HYDRA goons but misses them by a mile and it bounces off a wall and flies out through a window, and Steve is just standing there, whoops, while Bucky rolls his eyes, takes out the enemies with his rifle, and jogs back outside to fetch the shield.
Steve hasn’t learnt the ctrl+c to crouch move yet; he holds the shield in front of his face and a HYDRA sniper shoots him in the thigh. Bucky facepalms because Steve you idiot, the shield only protects the bits of you actually behind it. Eventually, Steve masters the art of hiding his entire body behind the shield, tortoise-style, by ducking and having Bucky chuck pebbles at whatever parts of him are sticking out – of course Bucky has a wicked good aim and an even more wicked sense of humour, and Steve ends up with some rather embarrassing bruises.
The Commandos are on a stealth mission to infiltrate a secret HYDRA base, except the shield slips, falls, and does that rolling-metal-lid-dropped-on-the-ground sound like clang!!-grooiinnng-rooiinng-ooiinnnng-rnnnng-rrnng-rrnng-rrnng until Steve puts his foot on it. Everyone stops and just stares at him.
Also, my personal headcanon is that Steve once bet the shield in a hand of poker and Bucky won it. So it’s actually been Bucky’s shield since October 1944, Steve’s just borrowing it.

Oh my god yes please
Little-Known Maria Hill Fun Facts
Like headcanons, except they’re canon.
I looove reading people’s headcanons, but it makes me sad that there are all these random treasures from the stories themselves (these come from a mix of the Marvel ‘verses) that no one seems to know about! So, for your fanwork-creating enjoyment:
- Maria’s favorite food is spaghetti with red sauce
- She also cares enough about pizza to have a favorite pizza parlor in the entire U.S. (Vinnie’s of Savannah, Georgia)
- However, she is not fond of dishes that are chicken-fried
- Plays, or at one point played, video games
- Was expelled from high school (or possibly middle school)
- Had a pet fish but it died
- Can swim in handcuffs
- Cuts her own hair
- Was in the Marines before SHIELD
- If you care, the canonical Answer to that one debate fandom is always having is that she was already with SHIELD when she was stationed in Madripoor (we don’t know where she was or what she did as a Marine)
- Has had the same car since she was nineteen years old
- Cheapskate. (Her Georgetown apartment is on the third floor of her walkup because it was fifty bucks cheaper. Fifty bucks’ difference, Hill? Does SHIELD really pay you that badly? Actually, if we go by Isaiah the Lawyer’s complaints about Natasha’s pay, it probably does)
- Or maybe she was just saving for eighteen months to afford her nINE HUNDRED DOLLAR headphones. Damn gurl
- Hates reporters
- The only people she hates more than reporters are politicians
- She sleeps with a gun under her pillow (specifically, this is from EMH, so it’s her sci-fi laser pistol
- The only items lying around her office aside from desk clutter/office materials are a coffeemaker and a couple of submachine guns
- Out of uniform, she tends to wear practical attire; lots of jeans and boots
- Admires Nick Fury (but ain’t NEVER gonna admit it)
- Likes jetpacks, well-laid plans, and rose-tone nail polish
- Not afraid of you
I might go back and source these/add panels when I have time; let me know if you want the panel/source for a specific one!
#I can’t even fucking tell you guys #how much I love Rhodey’s whole ‘rolling with it’ attitude with shit #this is what I aspire to be like #just #’got burned out of my suit’ #’rolling with it’ #’dude breathes fire’ #’can deal with it’ #’Tony has 47 fucking thousand suits’ #’I got a .45 and a green polo shirt’ #’I can do this man’#rHODEY FOR PRESIDENT (via iamwarmachine)
#oh god now i actually want to write Rhodey For President#Tony finances the whole campaign easily#it’s a joke until rhodey realizes how shit the other candidates are#RHODEY BECOMES PRESIDENT#THE SECRET SERVICE HATES HIM BECAUSE HE’S WAR MACHINE AND IS ALSO A SUPERHERO
And he still goes chasing after Tony when Tony does stupid shit. The Secret Services eventually institutes a Code Stark, meaning “The president flew off again to pull Stark’s ass out of the fire. May as well break out the beer and cards. They’ll be back in two days, and then the PR Department will be working overtime to cover up the explosions.”

Fuck though, I mean…give me all the stories about growing up in the Middle Of Nowhere and your dad’s a Superhero. And you remember, right, when you were so small, you only just barely remember, when he was a Secret Agent. Or maybe you don’t, maybe you never knew, he just Does Something For The Government, but you can’t tell any of the other kids, say he’s in the Air Force, say he’s a Merchant Mariner who comes home sun and wind burnt, pockets full of strange things. Say he consults with the circus, that’s how and your mom met, when she still threw axes for a living.
Nights you stay up waiting, and he doesn’t come home. Mom said he won’t be back until next week, but you thought, maybe…this once. The mornings you get up and he’s HERE when did he GET here Dad Dad Dad! The afternoons where his phone starts to buzz, and you realize you’re going to be finishing your Science Fair project on your own.
I want the story of too many emotions, of joy that you can’t hold, of hero worship, of sick resentment burning in your lungs and your gut that he’s not here, he’s never HERE, of pride swelling like the sea when your dad saves the whole. fucking. world.
Give me the Barton kids growing up and figuring out that being an adult is just constantly Faking It, and god, Dad never really had his shit together, did he?
horror games are always set in aslyums and thats ableist and im tired of that so im going to make a horror game where ur a neutodivergent person and you have to navigate through a hallway full of neurotypical psych students and autism moms
I still want the horror game where the neurodivergent character is quietly fighting and removing all of the monsters because the bleeps are hiding in their safe spaces like under the desk.
