i love ur owl house works! i have never done a request before, but here's my suggestion: autistic hunter struggling with his motor skills and frustrating himself, you can fill in the blanks. i am autistic and lack motor skills and have never seen that addressed in autistic hunter fics and i know I'll love whatever you come up with
Chronology : During the timeskip at the beginning of 3x01 Pairings : Camila & Hunter, Camila & Luz Headcanon : Autistic!Hunter with motor issues because of it Author's note : I've talked about this before but it's rare for me to get especially excited a request and this is one of the ones where as soon as I read it I got fuckin HYPED. I also lack refined motor skills, which I've written about with other characters and fandoms before but not Hunter I don't think so here we are
Camila really hadn't asked that much of him. She'd given a very simple chore. Hunter, can you sweep up the kitchen floor, please? she'd asked, and he was eager to help, too.
So, why was this so miserable?
It wasn't that he didn't understand the function of the broom, his hands just didn't want to cooperate. He'd seen Camila and Luz and Vee all do this task before with relative ease. What was wrong with him?
Naturally, his anxiety began to build as he struggled and failed to do the one, simple task he'd been given. Memories of similar instances flew through his head- Times where Belos would give him a simple task and he'd mess it up because his hands didn't work. Those times were always met with severe punishment, so-
"Hunter?" Camila asked as she walked back into the kitchen, only to find the floor barely swept. "Can you finish sweeping, please?" she asked patiently. Hunter wanted to cry. "I'm gonna be making dinner here soon"
"Sorry, I'm sorry" he replied a bit frantically, trying his best to continue sweeping but continuously getting caught as his hands refused to do what they were supposed to. Camila frowned as he grew more and more hysterical until he eventually threw the broom to the floor and ran out of the house.
Luz walked in because of the noise. "Is everything okay, mamá?"
"Hunter was having some sort of trouble sweeping, so he threw this on the ground and ran out of the house" she gestured to the abandoned broom. Luz mirrored her mother's frown. "I think he may be having a panic attack" Camila realized. "Can you keep an eye on the others and make sure they don't come outside while I'm checking on him?"
"Yes, ma'am"
----------
"Hunter?" Camila asked as she spotted the blonde sitting right on the backdoor stairs. He went rigid and seemed ready to bolt again. "You're not in trouble, don't worry" she was quick to reassure. "Can I come talk with you about what just happened?"
"Okay" he allowed and she smiled as she sat next to him on the backdoor stairs. "Do you wanna tell me what happened?"
"I'm sorry" he apologized, and there were tears in his eyes. Camila's heart sank. What had they done to this poor kid? "I wasn't ignoring your order, I just-"
"Order?" she asked, bewildered.
"Yeah?" he replied, equally bewildered by her reaction. "You gave me an order, and I didn't do it, which-"
"Order..."
"Apologies if that's the incorrect wording" he told her, and for a moment the tears grew a little thicker. "I promise I wasn't ignoring it, though. I just... Couldn't"
"Why?" she asked, though she seemed to just want to understand. Hunter swallowed thickly. Whenever he'd told Belos the real reason before, it hadn't ended well, but he didn't have any better explanation, so...
"My hands don't really... Work" he explained hesitantly, shutting his eyes tight as though expecting to be hit. "Like I can write or draw or flip pages in a book fine, but when it comes to certain tasks like sweeping or tying my shoes or... I don't know, that stupid cup song Luz was trying to teach us" he chuckled. "My hands just don't wanna cooperate, even though I understand how to do it"
"Oh" Camila said and he was already planning what to do if she kicked him out, but she didn't do that. He risked opening an eye and was greeted with a kind smile. "Thank you for telling me, Hunter" she said. What? "I won't ask you to sweep again"
"Wait, you aren't mad?"
"No, of course not, mijo" she replied earnestly. "You have motor issues. Why would I be mad at you for that?"
"I..." he sighed. "I don't know. I'm sorry"
"Hey, no more apologies" she nudged him gently. "You don't need to apologize for existing in my household, okay? Here, how about you come and help me cook, can you do that?"
"Yes, ma'am"
"Alright" she smiled. "I'll finish sweeping real quick and then we'll get started"
"Thank you, ma'am"
"No need"
DO NOT REPOST ON OTHER PLATFORMS!! This will be crossposted on AO3 under the same username
Hello!! I just got a 1998 furby who has two main issues that I don't know how to solve. The biggest one is 50% of the time, it doesnt recognize the batteries at all. I put the same batteries in my other furby and they work every time. The second issue is their tilt sensor doesnt appear to work (which makes waking them up difficult, as they have MSA!). They are an RL and came with no sign of a plastic tag (the paper tag is intact). Do you happen to know how to fix these issues? Thanks in advance!
I forgot to mention! They also have somewhat stiff eyelids and ears, and sometimes their mouth stays open after saying something! I'm guessing these specific issues are related to one another. If you have any tips for these issues as well, they would be very appreciated!! Thanks again!
Hi! It sounds like your furb just needs some electronics cleaned! For the battery issues, you’ll want to clean out the battery compartment as though you were cleaning out corroded batteries (wipe the contacts with vinegar or rubbing alcohol).Dirty tilt sensors are a pretty common problem (and, I think, may be part of what causes MSA) which I already have a guide on! You can check it out right here.The mouth staying open is probably either caused by mild sync issues or motor wear. I’d try cleaning the sync screw first, since it’s pretty simple. If the motor is worn out, it may move more or less than the Furby’s program is “expecting”, and land your furb in the wrong position. In that case, lubricating the motor bearing may be helpful! Lubricating the rest of your furbs gears should help with the stiffness in the eyes and ears, as well.
that autism feel when you have motor issues and suddenly your hand decides to drop a cup/coffee can/whatever you’re holding and it makes a mess/burns your hand.
As my disability progresses, I find it cumbersome to navigate a keyboard and mouse simultaneously in computer games. PlayStation or Xbox controllers are inaccessible for me right out of the box, so I’ve gravitated toward mouse-only games in the past few years as my primary source of computer entertainment.
We all need a little more fun in our lives! If you’re dealing with issues in coordination or motor function, this article is a great starting place.
A couple of games we heartily recommend:
Hatoful Boyfriend: a Japanese dating sim where all the character are pigeons. Really.
Triple Town: a super-fun puzzle game where you place pieces of a town and match three to create even better pieces!
Gone Home: a really poignant exploration game where you come home from a year abroad and find your house empty. Snooping around tells the story of your family, what you’ve missed, and where they went.

Have fun, y’all!
TUAFW you're playing Dance Dance Revolution with your sister and you do raptor hands bc balance issues, and your sis laughs at you because she says you "look like a tap dancing squirrel" and you get super self-conscious and never play DDR ever again

do u know like what kind of motor 2012s use n like where i could find one my furb habanero needs a new one and i have only a vague idea of what i need. in one post some1 said its a OLS 1D390 but whenever i search that i get very little or no results .i saw another website describe it as a 6v brushless dc motor so thts what ive been searching but im just confused still n scared to just get one that looks good
I’d like to preface this ask by saying that I have never replaced or needed to replace the motor in any kind of Furby, so I can’t really help in that regard. Additionally, in order to replace the motor, you need to know how to solder and have a basic understanding of how electrical circuits work so you can hook everything up correctly.
Ultimately, I think it’ll probably be much easier to leave your furb non-working. I can’t really provide in-depth technical advice for something I’ve never done before, and there’s so many different variables at play when selecting a replacement motor that things can get very difficult very quickly.
With that said, I would like to try and explain a little bit about battery-op motors! “6v brushless DC motor” is a pretty generic description for a motor- it’s DC (as opposed to AC), which means it’s set up to run on batteries and can rotate in either direction. It’s designed to run with 6 volts of power running through it, which is equivalent to 4 AA or AAA batteries (they’re 1.5 volts each). That’s pretty standard for all Furbies! I’m not so sure about the “brushless” part- that refers to some of the internal parts of the motor. I know that ‘98 furbs have brushed motors, so it wouldn’t be unreasonable to assume that 2012s also run on brushed motors. In the long run, it shouldn’t matter too much either way!
I was able to find some more specific info on the motor you mentioned (I googled “OLS 1D390 motor”), and it looks like it’s a super common all-purpose motor. It could probably work, depending on how large it is and how fast it spins. It wouldn’t hurt to buy one and check it out, since they’re pretty dang cheap!
