"Do you want a boyfriend/girlfriend?" no i want a best friend/roommate/soulmate that I can go on silly adventures with and hang out with and have deep intellectual discussions with and we can be life partners without any of the romance stuff

It is demoralizing to be a trans man who games and generally gravitates towards "support" roles in video games.
It genuinely makes me so sad every time I queue into a lobby and get called an e-girl, or just a woman in general, without me even speaking. People judge me simply because of the characters I enjoy playing.
It is isolating in many ways because I literally cannot speak. If I do, people assume I am a woman, friend me, and then get extremely rude or toxic if I tell them I am not.
The other day I was playing Overwatch and everyone in the voice chat said hi. The vibes seemed chill, so I also said hi. My Cassidy was very nice and we had a great game. After the match, he added me and asked if I was a woman. When I said no, he unfriended and blocked me.
I am so exhausted of this. I just want to play the game and make friends. 😔
Sometimes I wish people understood what it actually feels like to live with AUDHD the combination of Autism and ADHD. It’s not quirky, it’s not “cute,” and it’s definitely not just being distracted or socially awkward. It’s a daily battle inside your own mind, and most of the world never sees the internal exhaustion behind it.
Living with AUDHD means having a brain that can’t decide whether it wants absolute structure or total chaos. One moment you’re overstimulated to the point of shutting down, and the next moment you’re stuck in a spiral of hyperactivity and racing thoughts. You crave routine but get bored of it. You want to focus but your brain refuses to cooperate. You want calm, but everything feels too loud, too bright, too fast.
People see the outside the forgetfulness, the fidgeting, the sensitivity, the intense interests and they assume it’s manageable. But they don’t see the burnout that hits without warning. They don’t feel the sensory overload that makes small things feel unbearable. They don’t experience the guilt of wanting to do things but being unable to start, or the frustration of trying your absolute best while still being labeled “lazy,” “dramatic,” or “unmotivated.”
And the worst part is the loneliness. Because AUDHD often makes you feel “too much” for everyone. Too sensitive, too emotional, too intense, too overwhelmed. So you learn to mask. You pretend you’re fine. You try to act “normal,” even when your brain is screaming.
But here’s the truth: AUDHD is not a character flaw. It’s not a choice. It’s a reality that deserves understanding, compassion, and awareness. People who live with it are fighting battles every single day and doing it quietly.
If you know someone with AUDHD, be kind. Be patient. Believe them. Support matters more than you realize.
I have such a strange relationship with friendship. I genuinely, desperately want a friend, a real one. Someone I can hang out with every day, sit on call with, and play games with. But at the same time the idea of maintaining it, of messaging someone every day, the obligation to constantly do things. It just feels so overbearing.... Guess I'm not really a great friend after all.
Cassian and his fiancée Lady Reanna! I wanted to explore a silly dynamic with a playful knight and a spoiled noble lady 🥰 I think they’re cute and could prolly conquer the world if they were evil enough

I do not really know how to properly format or present this as it is my first time making one of these, but I will do my best to explain:
You play as a mage who is estranged from their family because of their abilities. Since birth, you have had the ability to see into people's minds and read their memories. You cannot control this ability. You ran from your family, who are still trying to hunt you down, and start a teashop in a tiny town near the border.
You sell magical teas imbued with your magic. Your patrons request a tea for a specific memory or just a memory of a specific vibe. "A time when I was happy" could be a childhood memory of them skipping rocks over the river with friends. "I forgot my mother's face after she passed" could be a memory of them as a child, their mother making them ginger milk on a rainy night, telling them to rest—you get the idea.
The memory only plays once on the first sip. When reliving a memory, your customer's eyes go black and they stare blankly ahead; the world gets blocked out for them, and they feel all the emotions they were feeling in that memory. They can feel, taste, touch, hear, and see everything in the memory as if it is happening in real time. Once the memory magic is consumed, it's just regular tea.
One day, a party of three walks in. The older, retired knight requests a childhood memory. The harrowed-looking mage requests a memory of that beautiful garden they visited once. The rogue asks to see his family one last time.
The rogue's family died in a bandit raid; his village was burned down. The memory is of him as a boy, kneeling and sobbing behind his house, peeking through a gap in the wood, unable to move while his mother and sister scream for help. He can do nothing but cower and listen to their suffering. He hides while the bandits have their way with them, kill them brutally, and leave.
But there's something he missed. In the memory you show him, he sees a signet ring on one of the men—a ring of a noble house—and he realizes with sickening clarity that the downfall of his house was not a random attack of bandits at their vacation home, but a sick plot of another house.
Over the coming days, the party returns, and every time, the rogue asks for more and more specific memories. Each time, the smell of iron grows stronger on him.
