the thing is i dont have anything against ooc characterization, it can be fun to write about and explore. especially when the author is self aware and its just for fun. but sometimes i want to tilt my head at how badly someone has understood a character. wdym you think ctommy would willingly learn and be good at sign language. what world are you living in where you think ctommy doesnt have horrifically internalized and externalized ableism. he wouldnt even acknowledge if he had hearing loss
