I don't think some people realise how easy it is for personality-type frameworks to become tools of abuse. lol. here I am talking about astrology, but also mbti and the enneagram

my parents were always really into the enneagram. here's the thing about it: once you're told from a young age that you're the "emotional, melodramatic type", it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy in the worst way. every time you have an outburst (because your parents are abusing you) it's "oh sweetie this is just you being a classic type 4". any kind of complaint, no matter how reasonable it is, is framed back to you as a consequence of an innate set of personality traits, rather than a response to your environment. this is possible no matter what personality type system you use. including 'personality disorders' as described in the dsm

ESPECIALLY including the dsm

y'all need to relearn the word erratic and stop using schizophrenic/bipolar/psychotic as a replacement

People need to relearn the word "egocentric" and stop using narcissist/narc as a replacement.

People need to relearn the word "impulse" and stop using "intrusive thought" as a replacement

au where its already the future and while flying through new york Scott sees some big guys bullying and kicking someone already laying on the ground and covering in fear and for some reason he wants to intervene

proving Legs he can be better and all that

he scares the bullies away and he helps the guy up

but they look a bit too much like Pyro

be-jargogled

When Scott asks his name, just to make sure that he is not back, he gets an answer.

The young man, the barely not a boy anymore, calls himself Jack.

He smiles at Scott like a rabbit trying to convince a wolf that it was dead.

Something in his eyes demanding not to be hurt.

Just like Pyro's, all those years ago at the lake.

Scott brushes it off. It was one guy, there were so many people in the city, Scott won't ever see him again. He did good Legs, isn't that enough?

And then Scott starts seeing him everywhere.

Jack has a habit of being bullied, it seems.

Scott does his best to help when he sees it, some part of him recognizing the look in Pyro's Jack's eyes.

He ends up talking to Jack more. Learning about their life, what they study, what they like.

And then Scott watches him wither.

Jack grows jumpy and distant. Flinching at shadows, he mumbles to himself and cries for minutes on end when Scott saves him again and again and again.

Scott does his best to get to know Jack, some part of him wanting to see it as redeeming himself for Pyro's everything.

Then Jack admits that he doesn't think he can take it anymore. That he's going to snap. He's going to kill someone.

Scott meets his eyes, and cannot force himself to see anyone other than Pyro.

He doesn't know what to do with that information. So when Pyro ends up on the news for murder, when Pyro is marked for death, Scott settles himself in the belief that it was proof that Pyro could never change. Not like he could.

A decade later he saves someone from being bullied.

He looks a lot like Pyro.

This would have had me crucified on tumblr 10 years ago but maybe we are ready for this conversation now:

If you are a socially anxious person, you have to socialize. Your panic/anxiety attacks will only get worse and trigger more frequently if you constantly avoid contact with The Public. Not saying that you need to be a social butterfly- but there is a genuine problem with not being able to order your own meal at a restaurant. And it cannot be solved by always having someone else do it for you.

This is a PSA to about 3/4s of the Portland Youth populace

everyone who reblogs this and is like "I ordered my own tea this week" or "I only barfed once when I had to give a presentation'- you are doing amazing sweetie. Have patience with yourself, you are relearning a skill so difficult that people get 4 year degrees to do it professionally.
