PSA: stuttering in fics
as someone with a speech impediment, all of the people saying that only one type of stuttering is valid are wrong.
stuttering CAN look like this: "t-this is a-an example s-s-sentence"
OR this: "this-this is an example sen-sentence."
OR this: "t-t-t-th-..t-ttttthis is an example sentence."
OR this: "this is, uhm, an example, uh, sentence."
OR this: "this is an example sssssss-sentence."
OR this: "this is an examp-...this an example sentence."
sometimes the sentence won't even come out of your mouth at all.
there are probably many examples i'm forgetting, but that's the point! it usually is a mix of a few of these, but some people do one of them more often than others! some people with speech impediments have certain sounds that they almost consistently have trouble with (for me it's "st").
people with speech impediments also rarely-if ever-stutter whilst they're singing or whispering.
most importantly!!!! people with speech impediments are capable of saying a sentence without stuttering!! it can just be a gamble sometimes.
and if more people could portray the frustration that comes with stuttering and not being able to get words out, i'd be a very happy girl.
(fun fact: sometimes when my mouth won't let me say what i want to say, i get so annoyed that i just yell or grumble out "WORDS.")
this was your speech impediment PSA!!!!
out of all the posts i’ve made i’m happy that it’s THIS one that blew up

THIS one that blew up
Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
Thank you for giving me peak writing advice Haiku Bot
I like making characters stutter but sometimes I'm like "this sounds unrealistic" even tho I've genuinely stuttered like the way I wrote because I'm a socially awkward lil goober
Seriously what kind of loser caffinates himself into a heart condition then nearly fistfights a doctor over his insistence in drinking coffee despite his active heart attack but cole brew. Icon behavior if you ask me
Ok but seriously that “stop it, get away from me!” HAD to be at least somewhat violent. Like cmon man. You don’t just yell that at a doctor when they try taking away your family friendly drug.
Anyways that’s why I like imagining Cole being somewhat of a creature sometimes. A little goofy goober. Perhaps a goblin or gremlin. Because he threatened his concerned doctor over family friendly drugs ❤️
