Curate, connect, and discover
denki has hyperempathy, he cares a lot about others and sometimes he feels bad for inanimate objects, one time he apologized to one of his stuffed animals because he accidentally kicked it off the bed
he loves the fluff!! thats one reason why he plays with ojiro's tail so much,,, its just so soft!!!
he listens to the same song over and over on repeat, it confuses his friends but it makes him happy so they dont care much
special interests include pokemon, web design/programming ((the fact that he taught izuku how to make a fully functional website for mr smiley in one night(?) is incredible)), and his favorite bands. he's also into literature + history but he doesn't feel smart enough to make an effort to talk about it ((i mean,, his first thought about jiro's teasing hero name idea for him included a reference to A Farewell to Arms))
he panics over tests and quizzes, this improved drastically when he was allowed to go to a seperate testing environment so he could do whatever he wanted to focus without worrying about distracting others
stimming all the time. never sits still.
he's overexpressive, he tries to make his emotions really really clear which leads to exagurration in vocal tone and facial expressions, but most of the time his feelings are still clear
he's very bad at managing his volume when he speaks, he's always either too loud or way too quiet, at this point most of class 1-a has slowly gotten used to his loudness though
most of his sensory issues come with textures, especially food. he still eats things that a young child would because he just never got used to more complex foods with lots of different textures and flavors
denki loves weighted blankets, especially the really heavy, big ones that look like they could crush him
he has some stims he sticks to like flapping his hands or chewing on things like chewelry, but he usually just does whatever he feels like doing at the moment that seems right. can't predict it with him. he has a lot of vocal stims and echolalia
his echolalia is mostly phrases he finds funny or interesting, especially when it fits the current situation. if ur in a car w/ him you'll hear "road work ahead? uh yeah, i sure hope it does" like at least 3 times
kaminari has a surprising amount of meltdowns. they're not exactly common but they happen enough to be noticably frequent.
he feels like he has to be the happy ray of sunshine all the time so he usually bottles up all his problems/stress/sensory issues which leads to the more frequent meltdowns
kirishima tries to be a good allistic ally, he gets a little confused sometimes but denki could talk for hours about autism so he totally has someone to explain lol this post is getting long so i'll post a part 2!!!
