Prompt Post #3
HEAD OVER TO PROMPT POST #4.
Keep filling prompts on this post! Make sure to link any new fic on the complete or work in progress fills posts so it doesn't get missed.
Please read the current rules before commenting on this post.
Previous Rounds: Prompt Post #1 | Prompt Post #2
Rules:
- YKINMKATO. Play nice.
- All comments must be anon.
- Announce your fill on either the Completed Fills Post or the WIP post.
- Warnings are nice, but not necessary.
- Use the subject line for the main idea of your prompt (pairing, kink, general wants).
- All types of prompts are welcome.
- Put [FILL] or something similar in the subject line when posting a fill. Multiple fills are always okay.
- Don't change the subject line unless you're posting a fill.
- RPF is allowed. Crossovers, characters from the extended Marvel Universe and comics canon are allowed, but must relate to the 2015 TV show in some way.
- Drop a comment on the mod post if you have any problems. There's an alternate link for viewing all the prompts on delicious here, if the above link doesn't work for you.
ATTENTION KINKMEMERS: We have some new rules.
- There's now a WIP post in addition to the Fills post. Fills post is now only for completed fills (and one-shots, and minifills). Unfinished fills and updates go on the WIP post. When you finish it, you can put a link to the whole thing in the Fills post.
- Prompts can only be reposted once one round has passed - i.e., prompts from post #2 cannot be reposted until post #4. Please include a link to where it has been previously posted.
Come talk to me on the mod post if you have any questions <3
ATTENTION KINKMEMERS 2: Late heads up for anyone not on the discussion post - we're closing this post and starting the fill fest when it reaches 4000 comments, which, as of writing, is in 17 comments time. Get any prompts you desperately need in soon!
Re: THIRD (MINI)FILL
(Anonymous) 2015-06-11 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)He lost his sight at 9-10, so he never had the chance to improve his handwriting in an organic way; I think I went through about 5 different writing styles before settling on the one I use today.
Also, ages 9-10 is right around the time when kids were taught how to write in cursive, which they may or may not have seen as necessary to teach him, so he'd probably just default to block letters on the odd occasion when he'd need to write something. There's also the fact that Matt grew up during the time of personal computers, meaning there'd probably be less of a focus put on teaching a blind child how to write correctly with a straight ruler and more focus on teaching him how to type on a keyboard.

(Anonymous) 2015-06-11 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)Oh I know, I wasn't saying I think Matt would have perfect handwriting or anything. I just object (and he might or might not, I can't know that but we are kind of in the business of trying to get inside his head around here lol) to terminology like "___ of a 9 year old"
To me personally it comes off as a little infantilizing and reminds me of when people say things like "she has the mind of a child" or "he's 32 but mentally 12" etc. ymmv.
Re: THIRD (MINI)FILL
(Anonymous) 2015-06-11 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)Yep! I think he'd take offence to the insinuation that he was lacking in some way, or that or warranted any type of pity response (Oh, poor Matt, whose writing is like a time capsule of the child whose life was changed forever, wahh).
I mean, even for sighted children now (in RL), hand-writing is going the way of the dinosaurs. At least in the elementary school near where I live, the focus is put more on teaching them how to type with laptops or ipad than actually taking notes with pencil and paper. /tangent
