This Video Cured Every Single Chemical Imbalance I Had

This video cured every single chemical imbalance I had

for all that talk about percy’s fatal flaw being his loyalty, it really wasn’t that relevant

one thing that NEVER fails to crack me up about the lightning thief is how everyone is like oh haha percy is so SLOW on the uptake, but it’s ABSOLUTELY not his fault nobody explains SHIT to him lol

five is neurodivergent: a post

five is neurodivergent: a post

His favourite sibling is Vanya, who is also ND coded. 

“Sole confidant” more like “the only sibling who did not zone out halfway through my infodumps”

Doesn’t understand social cues. In 1x10 Diego asks if he “knows these guys” and Five replies “Yeah” and then just. Doesn’t elaborate. 

Not communicative at all, which leads to other people getting mad at him. 

Even if he does communicate he does it the wrong way which also leads to other people getting mad at him. Just can’t win

Even as a child didn’t understand how to talk “"normally”“

Five, internally: How do normal ppl ask their parents for permission???

Five: *stabs table* LET ME DO THE THING RIGHT NOW D:< 

Five: nailed it

Fidgets. So much. All over the place. It could be just the way Aidan prefers to play him but Five is always in motion. So much fidgeting. He’s stimming<33 him clenching his jaw, or playing with his hands, or just moving a lot? Stimming!!

Addictive personality and won’t admit it because he has no self-awareness and 0 sense of identity

Obsessed with his one thing™. As a child it was time travel and now it’s the apocalypse. He’s ✨hyperfixating✨

Has comfort object

Talks to himself (channels it through mannequin but still)

Loves both caffeine and sweets (even if he won’t admit it). Needs coffee or brain won’t be calm 

Gifted kid who found the material too easy as a kid so he acted all snooty about it and was then forced into the “mature” kid role. 

Prone to outbursts. Kicks, punches and breaks stuff whenever overwhelmed, shouts a lot especially at certain phrases, pulls at his hair, is often rude to people at the slightest provocation 

Assigned asshole at birth

Other ppl don’t react well to it tho so he masks by bottling it all up until it bursts and he just has to let it out <3 

Has had the same comfort food for 45 years and also it’s bread-related

Gets annoyed when other people can’t keep up with the niche knowledge he has collected about his interests

“Well it would if you were smarter” aka “Maybe you should have stayed up until 3 am reading about it everyday as a child like some of us Diego 💖" 

Also has RSD because I said so

Will blurt out whatever comes to mind sometimes but if other people are even slightly negative he loses it

Klaus: you’re an addict 

Five: SHUT UP 😡 I WILL NOW IMPULSIVELY BREAK THE GLASS EYE THAT KEPT ME GOING FOR 45 YEARS AND THEN GET DRUNK  😒 I WILL HAVE AN EXISTENTIAL CRISIS AND GIVE UP MY MANNEQUIN WIFE WHOM I LOVE  😭

Vanya: *makes a slightly disbelieving face*

Five: You think I’m CRAZY??? You do, don’t you???? 😟 WELL??? DO YOU??? YOU THINK  I’M A DELUSIONAL  LIAR??  😡 SHOULD I LEAVE AND NEVER TALK TO YOU AGAIN??? 😰

Diego: i was fine before you came so maybe it’s ur fault

Five: This isn’t my fault 😡… Is it??? 😟 Am I the worst person ever??? 🥺 IS EVERYTHING MY FAULT??? 😫 SHOULD I GO APOLOGISE TO MY ABUSIVE FATHER NOW???? 😰

Writes on walls, on books, on scrap paper, but not once on a notebook; throws away stuff; leaves things lying around. BUT also has very clean appearance, changes out of bloody clothes even on a deadline, room is always immaculate. The duality of hating cleaning but also being overwhelmed by mess and clutter <3

Simultaneously has a superiority and an inferiority complex??? Sir r u ok

Has time blindness,,, despite being a literal time traveller

Listen. The only reason he messes up time travel so badly is this. He has no idea if a minute and an hour are supposed to feel different or some shit. It’s all the same to him. The reason his powers work at the end of s2 is because the adrenaline is making his brain act normal in YEARS

Five in ep 1: The apocalypse is in 8 days which means I can’t think about anything else for the entirety of those 8 days

Five, 20 seconds before the apocalypse is about to happen: Time to wing it i guess

Very expressive but also not. Has a thousand emotions flashing across his face at any given time yet chooses to express only annoyance 

Emotional dysregulation. Oh god

Five: Meh who cares :/

Five 10 minutes later when the emotions finally kick in: ÄHhhhhHhhhhh  I can’t h a n d l e this anymore

This notably does not work well with his powers, which depend on emotions– but his emotions are so unpredictable even to him that he has no idea what’s going on with them anymore

A n g e r  i s s u e s

Has too many thoughts and yet is incapable of expressing them actually. Paradox Psychosis wasn’t even what made him say all that crazy shit it just goes thru his mind all the time and he chose to say it out loud. Started his rant with Luther’s authority related issues and ended it with “I’m the daddy here”. Legend shit

0 object permanence. 

“Yeah sure I didn’t talk to my siblings for 17 years and then some, but also What Do You Mean Our Relationship Has Changed And They Don’t See Me The Same Way Anymore" 

Literally procrastinated telling his siblings about a shrapnel wound because his obsession with apocalypse is More Important Right Now

Is more feral than the average person not just because of apocalypse and time travelling assassin shenanigans but also because he was Born With It 

He would have had trouble reading this post I think. Sorry Five I also have a monkey brain incapable of spacing shit out <3

In conclusion Five is neurodivergent because I said so

Hey remember how Luke defeated Kronos but Percy gets credit?

Son Of Neptune in a nutshell:
