did i understand any of what was said? no, absolutely not. but i think witnessing him get concussed, suffer from memory loss, eventually recover, get nailed in the face by peso’s medical bag, be thrown overboard and then get abandoned by the rest of the crew because they didn’t realize he’d fallen (i think)? makes it seem pretty justifiable to me. it was an interesting watch to say the least. i knew the movie was more violent than other installments but, wow.

edit: just realized i forgot the nick in kwazii's ear... goodbye everyone...

… also the clip of barnacles being bag-whipped below the cut because the instant replay is frying me 💔

Paisley says there is nothing wrong with being autistic or being age stunted. It’s not your fault!

It’s not your fault for having trauma or being autistic or having any mental health disorder.

You are allowed to exist just as you truly are.

You do not need to change yourself to make others happier.

· I headcanon Jinx as a permaregressor due to all the trauma she's been to, likely around 14-16 years old. But she'll drop younger pretty often when she's scared/upset, from 6-11 years old, or even 0-5 on rarer occasions

· She's really Triggered by Fireworks/Explosions/Gunshots when she's little, despite those things being her go-to's, Jinx’s entire body locks up the second she hears a loud pop when in headapce and she'll need/want comfort desperately after that

· Jinx is quite picky about her food when she's regressed and tends prefer soft textures, her favorite flavors are blue raspberry and sour apple, she likes the tang

· Jinx still likes to have stuffed animals and other toys around even when she's not regressed, she'll make them herself or maybe one of her caregivers (Vi, Sevika, Silco, etc.) will gift them to her, she likes being surrounded by the things she couldn't have growing up

· Jinx tends to cling to the people she trusts more when regressed, she struggles with feelings of abandonment and loneliness, often resulting in physical clinging/invading space (She has a limited understanding of boundaries and personal space, but no one seems to mind that much)

· Jinx requires reassurance and affection to feel secure and comfortable, she likes it when people talk to her gently and use simple words when she's regressed to help her understand better

· She has difficulty with self-regulation and controlling her impulses, leading to outbursts and tantrums, throwing things and hitting but she always calm down eventually

· She has trouble articulating her emotions and resorts to childlike actions to communicate like whining or dropping hints that she wants to play or cuddle or is hungry

· She loves music! Especially when regressed, dancing is her favorite activity when she's little and she play music and dance with whoever is around she trusts (Mostly Isha hehe)

· If she's feeling particularly small, she likes to be wrapped in blankets, she also loves to be held and rocked (particularly by Silco) she like the pressure, or she'll hold herself if no one is around.

· She used to suck her thumb a lot, but Vi gifted her a pacifier as a replacement and she uses it pretty frequently, even if she's big

· She absolutely loves colorings, everywhere and on anything, she'll even color on Sevika's arm on occasions (Sev will grumble about it but she truly doesn't mind)

Day two: babyre!!

He's able to act silly and a little clueless (pun intended) without sacrificing his position as an adult. It still feels like he's watching over Blue and the audience, inventing the game "Blue's Clues" as a way to make understanding Blue's needs easier for him and more fun for Blue.

💫 it’s okay to have a very specific age that you regress to

💫 it’s okay to have a huuuge age range that you regress within (like me)

💫 it’s okay to not know what age you regress to

Stuff like that can be tricky to figure out so don’t put pressure on yourself to decide on a small age! You don’t need labels (unless you want them) and you’re regression is just as valid without them ^-^
