Here's My Din Din For Today! With A Little Treat!

Remember those undies with the day of the week on them!!! I miss them, I wonder if they make them for adults

I weally hope one day I make a lotta money and cans have a whole nother room just for my regression stuff!!! there would be dinos on the walls and have a tent in it and a bunch of toys and I'd never have to put my toys away, they'd just always be out

Caregiver healing from having a toxic little with their new little (little talk has plain text in brackets after it)

You get to your little's place after a long day at work. After a bit of playing with them they tell you, "you seem tiwed" (you seem tired)

"sorry, my precious"

"no, itz ok. but r u gud?" (no, it's okay. But are you good?)

"I'm just a little stressed about my work, that's all"

"ooh, jobs are vewy hard. I awways getz eepy ater work" (oh, jobs are very hard. I always get sleepy after work)

"well, good thing you have me here to look after you"

"but whatz abou u???" (but what about you)

"I'm okay"

"nu, bubba needa west wight now" (no, bubba (caregiver) needs to rest right now), your little one takes your hand and leads you over to their bed before weakly pushing you onto it.

"come on munchkin, I'm here to take care of you, not to nap"

"bu-but I needz u ta be wested s-so we can both be appy n pway" (but I need you to be rested so we can both be happy and play)

"okay, if you insist"

"yayyy, okie, nuw stay hewe. I needa get u stuff" (yay, okay, now stay here. I need to get you stuff)

"be safe!!!" you shout out as they rush off to the kitchen.

You wait in bed thinking over what your little tot could be doing. You listen carefully to make sure there are no concerning noises and while there are a couple thunks they're all followed by a quick "I okey" (I'm okay). You start to feel more guilty about leaving your little alone especially when they're this small and running around the house to do whatever they want. You think about how you're last little would have come back crying about how you didn't follow them even though they told you not to.

As your fears start to creep, thinking of your little muffin coming back upset or hurt they appear in the doorway happy as ever

" 'ook wa I made fur u" (look what I made for you?)

They present you with their favourite plate with a messy peanut butter and jelly sandwich in one section, chips in another and a mix of blueberries and raspberries in the last.

"I didznt cut da sammich cause i knuw u dun wanme usin sharp stuff. Annnn! N i added fwuits cause you awways say dere 'mpowtant" "I didn't cut up the sandwich because I know you don't want me using sharp objects. And! I added fruits because you always say they are important)

"aww, you're such a good kid" you say was you rub their hair.

"canz I cuddle wid u?" (can I cuddle with you?)

"of course!"

You lay there, hugging them and snacking on the food they made for you for a while.

"Hey button, I'm really sorry I couldn't be that good of a caregiver today"

"wha??? you were da best today!" (What? You were the best today) they cuddle into your arm, "I don eed you tu awways be stwong for me. ur da best cause I wuv u not cause of da stuff u do" (I don't need you to always be strong for me. You're the best because I love you, not because of the stuff you do for me)

I just watched the Bluey episode 'the sign' and it made me think of when I had to switch schools, there was no real reason other than my parents wanted me to learn french but being autistic I was never really able to make friends in the new school and that led me to a lot of loneliness and depression that I've carried with me ever since.

And I think it's easy to say that this is the bad ending, the bad "we'll see" but maybe by leaving that school I missed something potentially worse that could have happened to me. Bluey never found out that it was their lucky coin that saved their house and maybe I don't know it but this loneliness saved me from something I wouldn't have been able to recover from

Age regressor Silco headcannons

⭐A toddler regressor, very quiet too when he's regressed unless he's in a tantrum

⭐Super secretive about it like the only people to ever find out were Vander, Felicia, and Jinx

⭐Regresses from stress which is normally from his workload or drama happening with the chembarons or shipment issues. Used to also be from loud parties and the last drop being too crowded

⭐Has a secret room filled with regressor things that he warns Sevika and his other workers to NEVER go into and to not bother him when he's in there no matter what

⭐Used to be a very well behaved little that just liked to make drawings and play with blocks but after his falling out with Vander he became very fussy and would throw tantrums almost every time he regressed

⭐Masks that he's regressed if he can't get to his safe room which normally means turning his 'crying and hitting the ground' tantrums into a 'beating up and firing the person closest to him' tantrum

⭐The others have learned how to pick up that he's about to throw a tantrum and leave as soon as there are warning signs

⭐This scene was one of his tantrums (s01e06, 'guns for hire' scene)

⭐Most of Jinx caregiving for him is her teaching him how to play as a kid and not just cry and hit stuff

⭐They doodle over stuff together, Silco is always a lot more shy with drawing over random things but Jinx gets him to open up

⭐By the end his art style is almost the same as hers. his drawings start out super scratchy, only using greys and stuff but they turn really colourful

⭐he loves having all his plushies and bottles covered in Jinx's drawings

⭐At first she tries to avoid drawing on his stuff to give him space when he's regressed but she finds he clings onto anything she's drawn on and she starts decorating more of his stuff

⭐If he's feeling really little she'll blow stuff up cause he likes the pretty colours but he always gets mad at her when he's big again

⭐ Jinx also regresses and she started suspecting he might when he first saw her regressed and immediately knew what was going on

⭐one day she heard him sobbing in his safe room and went in

⭐he was super upset and told her to get out but eventually she was able to get him to open up about it and she promised to care for him whenever he needs it

⭐sometimes Sevika will find their agere things around and Jinx will always take responsibility for it

Past Vander and Felica Stuff:

⭐Vander first found out when Silco went into a backroom of the last drop when it got too loud. Vander followed to check up on him and Silco quickly put away his notebook and crayons he was drawing with and tried to do his best impression of being big. Vander wasn't convinced Silco was okay and kept checking in on him.

⭐Later Vander followed up with Silco, asking him if he was actually okay back then and Silco admitted to him he regresses. he was really worried Vander would find him weird or think it was for weird reasons but Vander just asked him more about it and how he can help

⭐Vander then got Silco a bunch of stuff, markers, bottles, stickers, anything he could find

⭐Silco loved being held by Vander, it made him feel so small, being in Vander's big arms

⭐Felica found out when she walked in on Vander taking care of Silco. Vander tried really hard to cover for Silco but Silco decided he trusted her enough to tell her his secret

⭐She would occasionally take care of Silco if Vander was busy but he never liked her style of cging as much

⭐but when Vi was on the way he starting letting her be his cg a lot more so she could get some practice in and feel more sure of herself

⭐he would always be sure to tell her how good of a mama she is

is there a term in there agere community for like a crush but you want them to be your caregiver, not your partner???

New lil guy picrew just dropped

He's so cute! Thank you, @xyn0n0

when you can't regress so you hang out with you friends until they make you feel so excluded that you involuntarily regress

Does anyone else view their regression/dreaming as more of an autistic trait than anything else?

I don't even know if I should be saying it's a trait?

For me it feels like I'm unmasking and even when I'm not regressed I still do/enjoy childlike things.

I wouldn't say I have trauma nor that my regression stems from trauma. My regression just feels like a vulnerable, soft headspace where I can just unwind and unmask. I honestly just didn't grow out of things -like toys and playing- and started masking (I especially noticed it when I was 10) to fit in with my peers who were growing out of things. I didn't want to be left behind and friendless.

Imagine stepping out of the shower and your caregiver is ready with one of these and wraps you up in it and you sit on their lap as they wash your face and put moisturizer on you and boop your nose and give you little kisses
