There Something Gets Wrong

There something gets wrong

Do it!

An asexual and pansexual become room-mates and have wacky adventures

The show is called ‘All or Nothing’

this idea came to me in the shower and I actually doubled over because I was laughing so hard

Is Sturgeon canonically autistic? As a bit of an autistic myself, she has a lot of moments that remind me of my own experiences in that department.

On a similar note, are there other WLB characters you write with a particular mental health/neurodivergent condition in mind?

Yes, I think Sturgeon is autistic! She struggles quite a bit at being social, although I think she can read others fairly well- Outside of Fangtooth and Tansy. She is not very good at expressing herself, and can come off as cold and uncaring, when that is absolutely not the case. She also has struggles with PTSD from what Thresher put her through in her childhood, but she has learned to cope with it in her adulthood and is fairly well adjusted. (All things considering)

Egret has similar social struggles to Sturgeon, and is fidgety / stims by whipping his tail / talking with his paws frequently. He hasn't been in the story much yet, so I will say no more.

Hake I also write as autistic, although he is very extroverted, so his social struggles have not been very visible. He quite loves to make friends, and he gets attached to others very easily. His very into bugs (and the tide) and will talk for hours about either, if you let him. (He is aware he'll ramble though and tries to catch himself)

As for Mental Health, my darling Trout has been struggling with PTSD from her assassination attempts, which can be expected.

one of the reasons i find splashtail so interesting as an antagonist is the fact that he’s so so clearly in over his head in a way that none of the other villains are

for the first 3 books i got the sense that he was trying to act like someone he wasn’t, and with the reveal in thunder it all finally clicked into place

splashtail’s trying to mimic curlfeather. but he can’t.

he’s stolen her plan. but at every turn, something finds a way to go wrong. he’s smart, yes, and able to adapt well, but curlfeather had a much clearer scheme to become leader (and would’ve succeeded if not for his betrayal)

he tries to manipulate frostpaw by being nice, dependable, someone she can trust. and it works to an extent, yes, frostpaw does genuinely trust him and listen to his advice. but not the same way she did with curlfeather. and when splashtail starts trying to push her in a certain direction, she pushes back. and his facade cracks. because, on a certain level, frostpaw can tell that the care splashtail pretends to have isn’t genuine. but with curlfeather? it was real. she did genuinely love frostpaw

splashtail is trying so hard to be curlfeather. he wants so badly to be relaxed, calm, and in control like she was. but he can’t be. splashtail is an impulsive teenager with a bad temper. he was never meant to be the one in charge of this plan

and why does splashtail want this? why does he want to be leader? i think curlfeather had a reason. maybe she opposed the code changes, maybe she was just ambitious, but she had a reason

i think splashtail is doing this out of spite. curlfeather told him he was too young, too hot-headed to be leader. and he is determined to prove her wrong by becoming her

i’m very excited to see where this goes.
