Densetsu no Soraru-san / Suzumu ft. Soraru
[ Could it be… the Legendary Soraru-san!? ]
Long ago, the people of this village suffered a crop shortage When they had not even a potato left Everyone cried to the village chief Silently, the chief rummaged through his scrolls “Seems that this is our last resort" In tears, he chanted the forbidden spell that was sealed in their village The clear sky clouded over at once And with a halo of light, the Buddha descended … "Could it be!?” That face is Soraru-san When you praise him he blushes, he’s Soraru-san Lately, he’s been jumping rope for his diet The pale Soraru-san The relaxed and comforting boy, Soraru-san He’s not as mentally strong as everyone thinks That’s Soraru-san The song that ShounenT sang of Soraru-san is passed on* For the sake of saving people again, his story is spread That person is Soraru-san The kind warrior, Soraru-san He saves the villagers and his story is spread The one that everyone loves That’s Soraru-san
[ *refers to a secret track on the Soraru x ShounenT collab doujin album, Spaceship. “It starts off with a funny and cute storytelling about Soraru as a hero and ShounenT starts singing a short song about him(with a guitar) after the hero, Soraru dies at the end of the story.” -eccentricitymadness ]

Resources For Writing Deaf, Mute, or Blind Characters
Despite the fact that I am not deaf, mute, or blind myself, one of the most common questions I receive is how to portray characters with these disabilities in fiction.
