I Deal With Horrible Paranoia And Hallucinations, It’s Gotten A Bit Better Though, Which Leads Me To

How would Lowell help doll work through a panic attack?

In the past when he's experienced panic attacks, he uses vagus nerve stimulation techniques- he'll encourage you to bite a lemon, squeeze a cold orange, jump around to loud music, use a weighted blanket, etc etc. Using physical tactics on your body to kinda hijack your brain back into being calm.

so llike snakes are my special interest and I have a corn snake named pumpkin. Can I take her wit meh 🥲 and my 2 cats

Yes ! Lowell is very pro pets and he would dote on a snake so much. Mustard is also very polite and would make a good friend for your kitties

Gently removing Lowell's makeup before we go to bed together and smooching each of his cheeks afterwards telling him he's gorgeous with or without it <3

Yall are so sweet to this weird little freak. He's crying abt it as we speak

He's for sure the type to sleep in makeup when he does get some sleep so a gesture like that he would be extremely touched by!

Teaching people what yanderes are, and what they are capable of is very important I feel. Since many seem to not understand or only know of the more sanitized versions. Which can/have ruined their perception of what yanderes really are or can be beyond the "sweet romantic stalker with some violent moments" idea many are used to now.

But also, as it's been shown too much now...Though is more apparent now in this time. I think we gotta help teach people to better learn how to have some media literacy. As well, learn to better not engage with stuff that will upset them or isn't personally suited for them.

...Also learn to read in general, especially when it comes to rules about the games/characters they are about to engage with. Most especially if they are for a series that involves clear dark, mature, violent and unsettling themes and scenes.

If it's not too much of a spoiler, what chronic neurological illness does Lowell have? (Unless it's already posted somewhere and I just didn't notice, in which case my bad)

The conditions he has themselves are not spoilers! Lowell's primary diagnoses are Mixed Connective Tissue Disease and Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis that is starting to progress more rapidly. He also suffers from gastroparesis, which makes it incredibly difficult for him to eat properly, a thyroid disorder, and he was just diagnosed with the beginning stages of rheumatoid arthritis at the onset of the game.

Lowell has been ill since he was a child, but he grew up in a neglectful household so he didn't recieve necessary medical care, and he both went to culinary school and now works as a commercial baker. He was essentially able to push past a lot of his symptoms to appear able bodied and has worked well past his limits for a long time, at massive detriment to his body- he's starting to feel the effects of his conditions acutely, and his ability to maintain his job and live a relatively normal life are declining rapidly.

I'm sparing the gorey details of how his conditions effect him in the two milder routes, but they will be playing a large part in the croquembouche route.

Lowell's feelings of losing control within his own body highly inform his character and his actions, and are drawn in large part by my own struggle with chronic and progressive disabilities- we don't share all of our diagnoses, but Lowell does have a few conditions that I myself suffer from.

“Okay but like if I’m a toy-“

yeAH NONNIE YOUVE GOT IT ALRIGHT ANCNNCNDM

Stares at Lowell

Ahem, I have v much have shark teeth, how would Lowell be with an MC who will in fact bite him every chance they get and they have super sharp teeth

Bonus for biting stims bc biting stim is me

He is very biteable! Plush and cushy good on the teeth. Go nuts and bite as hard as you like he can take it :o) leave some cool scars and he'd be over the moon

I'm sure it takes a bit to draw them, but I love the art responses to asks cuz I love your art <33

Lowell really just reignited my desire to draw up designs for an entire gothic lolita style wardrobe for the Yuyusona.

Guess I gotta draw it now.

YEEEES DO IT gothic lolita goes so hard !!!!

In light of my life experiences now and always I feel it's necessary to remind folks that Lowell is disabled, has always been disabled, and will always be disabled. Lowell has a progressive chronic neurological illness and it is absolutely crucial to understanding his character.
