prillalar: (fuwa)

A bear of very little brain.

Some days, it's easier to write fic than to think of something interesting to say. And some days I can't even do that.

The plan for the evening was to work on some Whistle! fic. That turned into a few hours of trying to get inside the head of Fuwa. To that end, I'm listening to Tool (usually reserved for debugging code and reading about QM) and reading up on Asperger's Syndrome.

I took the Autism-Spectrum Quotient test and scored 33. According to Wired: eighty percent of those diagnosed with autism or a related disorder scored 32 or higher. Hmm.

When I was on my iMac earlier, I googled "Fuwa Daichi" and the second result was my own LJ userinfo page. I just did the same search from the iBook and my page isn't anywhere in the first six pages. Bizarre.

Last night we watched The Corbomite Maneuver. It was noteworthy for the number of times Kirk took his shirt off and then called Spock on the videophone. Also, Clint Howard.

In conclusion, if I could draw, I would draw a picture of Momoshiro and Kaidoh in tuxedos, with white ties and cummerbunds. Kaidoh would be grabbing Momo by the lapel and scowling at him. Momo would be leaning in with a mischievous look on his face and we would know that one second later, they would be kissing, but we weren't going to get to see it ourselves.

Maybe I'll just think about that for a while.

I have several students on my caseload who have Asperger's, and many of them have a father who has Asperger's also. It's been fascinating getting to know that particularly part of the population. Most of them are incredibly good with language and mathematics, but have difficulties with gross motor or fine motor skills, and all the students can tell that there's just something a little bit off about them. For the most part they're really great to work with, because they interact on a more mature level than most kids their age. I can use the same language with my three Grade 2 boys who have Asperger's as I would with an adult. And I better not change the schedule around, because they know and I get heck for it. =D

Autism as a whole is fascinating. I have some kids who are completely non-verbal, almost catatonic, and then the Asperger's kids who are more like geniuses with bad social skills, and everything in between. You never know what you're going to find.

*points* See, THAT is the reason I keep trying to learn how to draw. Pics like that. I've got ideas like that, too... and if I could draw, I'd draw that for you!

The continued attempts are so far continuing to fail, however... >.<

If you write Fuwa fic, you're sharing, right? RIGHT? *big pleading chibi eyes*

Damn you for hooking me on a fandom nobody else has ever heard of, anyway!
