Cold as ice pt2

You looked through the trees to see the dark clouds rolling across the starry night sky. You don't know how far you'd gotten or where you were but you just kept going with no goal in mind until a sparkle caught your eye. You looked at the object submerged in the snow and pulled it out. It was the largest snowflake you'd ever seen. It was as your palm and it glistened in the moonlight like it was a star that fell out of the sky. Holding it made a chill consume you, even with such a warm coat it felt like you were almost nude. You didn't even realize the blizzard swirling around you until the specks of ice grazed your skin, however it felt like hands caressing you. Like a spirit of sorts.

"Thank you for finding that" the flurry whispered.

You shot the flurry a look.

"I must really be going crazy if I can hear nature itself speak" you said blatantly.

"No you are not going insane, do you not remember the eyes you saw through the frosted glass?" It asked.

"The snow king? Nothing but a folk tale my nana would tell, such things can't exist for the seasons are merely due to the earth's orbit" you explained, you didn't believe what was happening.

Suddenly you felt a sudden chill upon your forehead, your eyes shut in response to the coldness for a few seconds before you opened your eyes to see a pale man dressed in white. His skin was so pale it was like that of fresh snow and his hair was curled and coloured a pale blue like that of glacial ice.

"You sound so smart trying to disprove what is happening to yourself, but you are a mortal who has a lot to learn" he said in a cold tone as he took the snowflake from your hand and put it to his chest so that it'd rejoin his body.

"I don't usually interact with anyone but you were able to find a part of my body, so I must thank you" he said, still with little emotion to his words. He'd seen many humans through his many centuries but you were something different. He could see a lot of potential within you.

"Would you like to join me on my journey back to my castle? For I can teach you so much more than what humanity could fathom" he offered but you quickly declined.

"No, I need to find my home for all I see back in that town is decay" you explained. He'd caught on to what you'd said rather quickly, you were obviously fallen victim to the shards of the devil's mirror. Obviously you could only see the world through it's distorted lens.

"But I'm afraid you can not, for this world is not the same anymore, you are cursed to see this world as a horrible mess, as long as my magic surrounds you, you'll see what I create as what it truly is" he replied. You tried to leave but his icy hand clasped around your wrist. You yelped in pain as his grip burnt coldly.

"You refuse me, the snow king" he hissed before he grabbed the back of your head and forced you into his cold kiss. You passed out in his arms due to how low your body temperature dropped. He never liked people who objected to him but at least when you woke you'd be more than willing to comply with his orders as you would have very few memories of your life for every kiss he bestowed the closer one would be to death. He'd already kissed you twice so he vowed he'd refrain from kissing you again as that would most likely kill you.

❄️❄️❄️

"(Y/n)!" Bruno called out while he struggled in the deep snow and strengthening winds. He could feel the sting of small shards of ice hitting his cheeks.

"(Y/n) please come back!" He yelled at the top of his lungs as he began to cry. He didn't understand why you acted the way you did and ran away. He was hoping that you'd not passed out In the harsh snow, however he did not care about his own safety while he searched.

He'd gone on for hours in the icy winds. At this stage he was howling your name with a hoarse throat as he stumbled around with the last of his energy before passing out.

The morning came and he was woken by a group of men asking what the hell he'd been up to. He explained his dilemma and asked if they'd seen you but they replied that you'd either died in the snow or did not want to be found, which of course upset him. He kept searching in the snow during the winter but still to no avail. Locals kept telling him he should give up but he couldn't, he knew you were alive and possibly in danger.

❄️❄️❄️

You woke up on a fur pelt. You looked around to see that you were in a castle completely made of ice. The light from the setting sun reflected around the entire room, turning it an orange hue.

You groaned while running your head. Your mind tried to comprehend what had happened but you couldn't remember anything, not even your own name.

"You're finally awake" you heard a male say. You turned to where you heard the voice to see a pale man dressed in white.

"W… who are you?" You asked him.

"My name is Ghiaccio, most however know me as The Snow King" he introduced himself as he approached you.

"I found you in the forest nearly freezing to death so I decided I would bring you here" he explained as he patted your soft hair almost like you were a small dog.

"I can't seem to remember anything… Do you perhaps know anything about me?" You asked him.

"I can't say I know much, I can only really tell you two things. Your name is (Y/n) and that you can never return home" he replied. Before sitting on the icy throne beside him.

"And why would that be?" You asked.

"Because your eyes and heart have been tainted by the devil's mirror shards, as soon as you were to return all you would see is the hideous illusions it creates" he explained.

"Perhaps you've already ruined the relationships you had because of it" he continued.

"So I've decided to keep you here for soon your very heart will be frozen like mine"

Jinx’s Neurodiversity

Disclaimer: this analysis is coming from a late-in-life diagnosed autistic woman, who, in her autism diagnosis had her “borderline case of ADHD” from childhood  confirmed as actual ADHD. (cause there is no “borderline ADHD” or “borderline autism,” you’re neurodiverse or you’re not). 

Also, we can all speculate as much as we please but if the writers didn’t do their research and create the characters with that intent, this shit is just that: speculative. 

Buckle up for my brain dump ❤️

1. The first meltdown

It might seem like Powder overreacted to being told “don’t come,” but neurodiverse people (overall) have a limbic system (part of brain that regulates emotion) that develops differently from neurotypical people (see: needs extra support and has a steeper learning curve). ADHD-ers especially are more likely to experience very extreme feelings to triggers–as opposed to the more emotionally disconnected alexithymia which is more prevalent in the autistic community–but both labels can experience overwhelm, meltdowns, and shutdowns just from “big feelings.”

(And this is different from bipolar which will experience extremely high highs and low lows without a stimulus that will last for days/weeks/months.) 

In ADHD/autism the intense feelings are more apt to last a few minutes to a few hours and they are highly dependent on external and internal triggers. They’re not “crossed wires” or anything we could pathologize, they’re plainly very intense feelings. And again, because our nervous systems just don’t know how to process the overwhelm it can lead to meltdowns.

Breaking down Powder’s first meltdown:

-Intense reaction to being left alone for an indeterminate amount of time

-Don’t know how to process “not ready” so is aggressive/melts down around the items that relate to her “not ready”-ness (her bombs and the suitcase she packed to go with the group).

-(This part was the key for me) She realizes that she has a powerful superweapon in her possession and immediately the meltdown stops. Because we’re onto a new set of feelings now. She’s no longer distraught over not being able to contribute because she has a solution, and so those intense feelings disappear and so does the meltdown. 

2. The reflexes / brain go zoom

Jinx demonstrates that she has super reflexes

ADHD-ers, on average, have brains that work 3x as a fast as every other brain type. It’s what leads to a lot of us getting called the “gifted child” in school, but it’s not necessarily that we’re all geniuses, it’s just that our brains go zoom. 

Our brains are also more likely to exhibit a kind of neuropathway (?) that bypasses a part of our brains that would otherwise be used to “edit” signals. Where most people’s brains would go “cup want. vase in the way. move around vase, now *grab cup*” ADHD brains tend to go “cup” at the same time as “grab” which makes for clumsiness and impulsivity but also super fast reflexes.  

As well, I listened to a special ops on a biohacking podcast talk about how, if he had to be on the battlefield again, he’d want the person with ADHD next to him because our brains can keep up with the speed of battle with ease. Other brains are more likely to be overstimulated and have to wade through the shock first. But ADHD-ers have a speedy brain and are likely to have no problem keeping up (therefore keeping alive). 

The speediness is how we can have such a high threshold for stimulation, and why we’re more likely to be that person “sucked in” by the video game or movie–our brains also like the constant stream of stimulation. And conversely, we’re the first person to whip out our phone and start multitasking as soon as there’s a slow point on the screen. ADHD brains are hungry for stimulation, and battle is fast-paced stimulation. 

3. Happy-hormone starved

The way I understand it, because our brains work so fast we end up burning through dopamine/serotonin/happy hormones faster than other brains which is why we crave new stimulus constantly–it’s our brains way of chasing some happy. And again, battle is stimulating.

And Jinx, Jinx seems to luuurve battle. While, yes, there’s definitely a lot of validation that she gets from being the “stronger” adversary, it’s also probably something that is feeding her happy-hormone starved brain consistent hits of happy. So she likes it. Like a lot. 

Edit:* There’s even evidence in this in the “romantic and elated” music that plays when her bomb is a success–it’s the same music that plays when she watches her siblings fight Decker’s gang, and we see that from her POV and the slow mo of it makes it like a dance. I think battle and violence was something she was drawn to even before she ran around intentionally committing atrocities.

4. The “blips”

The first time we see Jinx’s awareness “blip” out is during this:

She is visibly already uncomfortable and when Silco reassures her that Vi is gone. She (1) agrees, (2) blips and struggles to make a joke about sisters, (3) blips and is suddenly blowing on the needle like a whistle. 

She’s dissociating. Shutting down little by little to avoid having to face the thing that’s causing her pain: the topic of Vi. I think this time the blip was to relay how her brain is processing trauma–in that it’s not processing it, but two other times it really felt more like the little manic episodes ADHD-ers can get.

You can feel like your brain is firing on all cylinders and, like, if your brain was a train, it doesn’t matter where you’re going cause the tracks will appear the millisecond before the wheels touch the ground. They don’t last long, a few hours at most, and they happen more when you’re “in the zone” or hyperfixating on something. And these happy blips happen when Jinx is in her element (and unbothered by her PTSD). She’s low-key manic.

5. “And I thought Powder could get obsessed”

Both ADHD and autism are known for having hyperfixations. Hyperfixating is like extreme tunnel-vision, almost always on something enjoyable. Neurodiverse people can go all day without eating if they’re hyperfixated on a project, ignore all body wants and needs–literally eat breathe sleep whatever topic they are hyperfixating on. 

ADHD-ers, when we like a thing we become obsessed with it as it continues to feed our brain happy hormones hits, and then a few weeks to a few months later, when it stops bringing us the happy, we drop it and move on to the next thing. 

Jinx clearly has obsessions that can each be explained by other means, but Vi has that one comment to Caitlyn, “And I thought Powder could get obsessed.” This trait has been a staple in Powder/Jinx since before the incident. And if Jinx is neurodiverse, then this is how her brain has worked since she was born. 

Side note: hyperfixating is different from special interests, which are hyperfixations that can last a person’s lifetime. Jinx’s obsession with bombs and shooting are probably special interests.

6. “Different”

Jinx being “different” seems to be a point of contention for her throughout the season. She’s less than thrilled when Vi calls her different, and when she admits it in the last episode, it’s like with a beaten down resignation. She doesn’t want to be different; she spends the whole season trying to belong (first to the Vander-family and then she flits between her desperation to be loved by Silco and loved by Vi). 

And this is one of the biggest complaints about autism; that because we are so different, we feel chronically lonely. We’re more likely to feel on the outs and like we just cannot connect and bond with others, even when we are actively participating or are with people we get along well with. It also means we’re going to be the person who doesn’t get the same fulfillment or feel the same ease when we are with other people. In my experience, the person at the party who wanders away from the crowd to go explore other rooms, or the person to break off from the conversation to sit at the table first is always neurodivergent (usually that person is me, but the rare times it’s not it’s another autie or ADHD-er). This inherent disconnect that happens, socially, makes us less apt to stick to the group and more apt to seek comfort or stimulation elsewhere. 

Several times we see Powder wandering off on her own. The first time is in Jayce’s apartment; Vi, Claggor, and Mylo stick together in the main room and Powder wanders away to explore. Another time is in the arcade when Powder completely decimates Mylo in the gun game. Instead of sticking around to claim her victory, or anything you’d expect from a kid who just destroyed someone who’s been low-key bullying her, she sticks her tongue out at him and wanders away.

7. Comorbid diagnoses with neurodiversity

If you drew a circle around all of the overlapping symptoms of ADHD and Autism, and then another circle around symptoms of trauma, you’d have almost one solid circle. ADHD and Austim have a lot of overlap, and most of those symptoms are also symptoms of trauma because being neurodiverse in a neurotypical world is inherently traumatizing. 

A large portion of the neurodiverse demographic have additional diagnoses of things like PTSD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, etc. I think one major factor in how prevalent comorbid diagnoses are, is that the daily trauma continues to compound until our brains have no choice but to alter our brain chemistry into something to seriously pathologize. 

And Jinx bby has been through two serious traumas which, when compounded on top of potential neurodiversity, would explain how her mental health got to be so irreparably far gone by the time Act II starts (even though she wasn’t the only one dealing with the aftermath of the incident, and pretty much every fissure folk has been through an insane amount of pain, too). 

This reddit post, btw, had a good talk about Jinx’s probable schizophrenia. From her “clang association” and “word salad” (as featured in “you’re a class act sister. sister, thought I missed her. bet you wouldn’t miss her.”), her paranoia, restlessness, and of course what we all associated with Jinx’s manifested mental illness: the hallucinations. 

The last thing I want to point out is in the first scene: we don’t see Powder emotionally react to mom and dad dying. We see Vi break down and we watch Powder comfort her sister. Does Powder ever process her parents death?? Probably not! Which is so wildly unhealthy. 

I think her not mourning mom and dad was the first crack in the bedrock of her psyche that that made for the choices and clear mental illness throughout the rest of the show. And that bedrock cracked as deeply as it did (and is as unfixable as it is) because she was probably neurodivergent from the start (plus the lanes don’t have therapy). 

So…

Poly!Ghostface x Reader

date night at the diner with your boys, nothing too crazy. you and stu are dumbasses together (bc i'm a stu level dumbass) and billy is the exhausted rational boyfriend.

It was your idea, date night with your boys at the local diner. You sat in the booth, sandwiched between Billy and Stu, despite there being a whole other side to sit on. Billy had his arm draped over your shoulder, Stu's hand resting on your thigh.

Billy hadn't wanted to join in when Stu suggested sharing a milkshake like you guys were in some cheesy romcom, but now he pouting over being left out. "Billy, you're the one who said it was a stupid idea."

He rolled his eyes, "yeah, and it still is. I just want a sip of the milkshake."

"Sorry man," Stu smiled at Billy over your head, "only way to get in on the milkshake is if all three of us are drinking it at the same time. I grabbed you a straw."

Billy rolled his eyes as he acquiesced. He could already tell that it wasn't going to go well, but he agreed because he knew that there was no other way he was getting anywhere near that milkshake.

He was right, of course, because as you all went in to take a sip of the milkshake your heads bumped into each other. As you and Stu leaned back to rub your heads dramatically, Billy grabbed the milkshake, taking a huge sip before placing it back down.

"Hey," you shouted in protest as he simply smiled at you in triumph. "No far, asshole. The rules are that we all drink it together or not at all!"

"Well we tried that and it clearly didn't work."

Stu chimed in, "it would've worked if you'd had a better attitude about it."

Billy rolled his eyes, "no, it wouldn't. Because it was a dumb idea, and you two are dumbasses."

You and Stu looked at each other, gasping dramatically. "Stu," you said, doing your best to sound like you were about to start sobbing dramatically, "did he just... Did he just call us... Stupid?"

Stu dramatically wrapped his arms around you, pulling you away from Billy, "Don't listen to him, he's just jealous that he isn't apart of our super cool milkshake club."

Billy looked on in amusement, "oh, so it's a club now."

"Yes, it is, and you are not invited," you stuck your tongue out at him before grabbing the milkshake, sharing a sip with Stu before setting it down and turning to face Billy again. "Say sorry for being mean and you can join the milkshake club."

"Really? This is so fucking dumb," Billy shook his head, a small smile on his face, despite how annoyed he tried to make himself sound.

You and Stu looked at each other before beginning a chant of 'milkshake club' that grew in volume until you'd begun gathering the attention of the other patrons. Billy rolled his eyes, "fine, fine, I apologize and would like to be apart of your st- of your milkshake club." You and Stu started cheering in victory as Billy looked around, shooting death glares at anyone who dared to look at you two funny.

Sure you and Stu were fucking stupid and a chaotic force of nature when put together; but he was the only one, as far as he was concerned, who had any right to comment on it.

He agreed to attempt to share the milkshake again, and this time it actually worked (because of Billy's suggestion that you don't all go in at once, so as to avoid ramming your skulls together). But he still chucked a fry at Stu and called him a "giant fucking moron" when he suggested matching milkshake club tattoos.

Stu's next suggestion was, "okay, what about shirts."

"Oooo yeah, I like that idea."

"Sometimes I wonder why I even bother with you two." But even as Billy said this, he was pulling you closer into him.

No but Arcane has such a good range of female characters like everyone involved in these designs understood the assignment for real 😩🙏
