more deaf reg and coda james since ppl liked it last time :)

here r just a few lil blurbs

regulus who subconsciously purrs like a cat and can't hear it and james who just adores it

james who invents special signs just to say certain things to regulus, things like "i love you more than anything," "don't beat yourself up," "come to my dorm later," "you look perfect," etc.

james who never asks regulus to wear his hearing aids like his family does. he knows they hurt and would never want his love to be in pain.

regulus who can't stop thinking abt how james' hands move when he signs. he's just so energetic

james who loves the little happy noises regulus isn't aware he makes whenever james hugs him or surprises him

regulus who casts spells to make himself hear for a few hours just to practice saying james' name over and over (as well has his first name paired with james' last)

james who loves to see regulus light up whenever he talks to his parents. he finally has adults in his life who don't want him to change anything about himself

regulus who loves that james snores because he can feel the vibrations and it helps him know that james is still there when he's asleep

regulus who can't help but moan loudly whenever he and james kiss (or anything else) but he isn't aware and james will never ever tell him to be quiet 1.) because reggie would get embarrassed and 2.) because he loves it

So the members of the discord at @bfpnola were explaining to me why BASL (Black American Sign Language) is a separate language than ASL (American Sign Language) because I was wondering if it was for a similar reason as AAVE (African American Vernacular English).

Fun fact. It's because of segregation. So when Sign Language in America was being taught. The schools were segregated, so they each dealt with deaf accommodations in their own way. White schools were taking a more integration approach so they highly frowned on the use of Sign and they were trying to get deaf kids to practice speaking.

However, Black schools were more opening to the use of Sign, so they had a lot longer to develop their Sign Language than White schools, as they were encouraging Sign at a time when white schools weren't.

Follow and support @bfpnola because they teach me so many things and it is so cool. 😁

WHOOPS! My hand slipped!

Three or four times...

#Watch me bash two characters together like a child bashing two dolls together and pretending their kissing #All while staring holes into the terrified eyes of DevSisters as if threatening them #'YOU DON'T EVEN PLAY THE GAME! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS??' #Their pleas will fall on deaf ears as I just continue to hammer away #Cookie Run #captain caviar cookie #black pearl cookie #I-I got more of these #but you ain't seeing them yet #Ya gurl's still got comms to stress over #blacaviar

I wanted to put out a post asking if there are any black nonverbal or deaf/HoH people who use BASL who would be willing to consult on an animation project?

My junior year of art school starts this fall, and I will begin working of my junior-senior thesis 3D animation, where the main character is a black nonbinary person who, in the beginning and ending scenes, is seen communicating with sign language. I am white and more-or-less abled-hearing (I have Auditory Processing Disorder but I don’t know if that counts), but I know there are differences between ASL and BASL, and I wanted to have a lot of sensitivity around using this dialect accurately and respectfully.

The consultation would involve taking videos of your hands as you sign the ‘dialogue’ I have written, which would then be used as a reference in the 3D animation. I am a relatively broke student but I am willing to pay for your consultation. Please DM me if you’re interested!

Note: I apologize in advance if I have mistakenly used any offensive terms in this post, I tried to do a lot of research but I’m sure I have shortcomings and gaps in my knowledge.

[sapphicmumrik]

now that I've rewatched the video, I still stand by what I said earlier, because in this economy, $5.99USD/$9.63AUD might be the price of someone's next meal. It might be all they can afford for this or that medication. Or their bus fare to a job interview.

just. maybe y'all shouldn't have had the guy who drives a Tesla and eats edible gold and dishes worth over $1k say everyone can afford it

Deaf!Regulus AU is a lot sadder than Blind!Regulus actually.

Regulus isn’t cursed deaf, he’s born that way, the inbreeding and his mother’s somewhat more reckless behaviour while pregnant with him causing it - after all, she’s already got her heir, and while Walburga doesn’t lose her mind and start hurting her children until Regulus is toddling, she lets loose a little more while pregnant with the spare - and from the first instance of her being told, the nurse smiling sadly at Walburga and offering her back her carefully swaddled youngest, she is... disappointed.

Walburga’s disappointment is sharp edged, and ruthless. Regulus learns to lip read as fast as he otherwise would have learned to talk because he has to, if he wants to avoid punishment; he learns to speak, too, diction and tone perfect, because his mother drills him in it, day after day, until you’d never guess that he’s actually deaf.

Orion is the one who learns and then teaches him sign language, and he and Sirius are the only ones who use it to speak to Regulus, before he starts at Hogwarts. It’s as much as blessing as a curse, because it’s French sign language, rather than the BSL he’s far more likely to come across while living in the UK, but it’s better than his entire family expecting him to communicate the same as everyone else, and punishing him when he doesn’t respond to conversation starters he doesn’t see.

He gets really good at knowing when Walburga is about to speak, and at keeping his eyes locked on her so he hardly ever misses her addressing him. Sirius adapts around this, when they’re children, waits until he’s sure their mother is finished before tapping Regulus on the wrist and talking to him.

This changes after his first year at Hogwarts, after he starts arguing with Walburga at the dinner table, and Regulus is so caught up trying to look between the two of them to keep up with the words flung back and forth that he misses both of them trying to drawn him into the conversation, gets a disappointed scowl from Sirius that hurts almost as much as the hexes from their mother.

When he starts at Hogwarts, the Sorting Hat speaking into his mind startles him so hard he almost falls off the stool, the first instance of something like hearing someone leaving him wide eyed, staring up at the brim; and McGonagall watched him with a concerned frown, even as the other students giggle at the dramatic reaction.

The only person who knows to make sure they’re in his eyeline when they speak to him is Evan - they’re cousins after all, have known each other since they were six, and Regulus told him he was deaf long before Walburga enforced the rule that he was to tell no one, that it was a shameful thing to admit - and Regulus quickly gets a reputation for being the rudest First year there’s ever been, flatly ignoring anyone who isn’t the professors or Rosier.

Until Pandora susses out that his rudeness isn’t intentional - not yet, the self defence of sharp words still forming - and makes it her mission to learn how to talk to him, and to make things easier for him in general, having decided Regulus is to be her best friend.

She learns sign language, makes Evan - and then Barty and Dorcas - learn it with her, and then they all learn BSL as a group.

(The first time Sirius spots Regulus communicating with his new friends by signing but can’t understand it, he’s so angry and hurt he can hardly breathe. He demands the Marauders as a group learn BSL, and never tells them why, and they don’t find out for years.)

The night Sirius leaves, Regulus isn’t woken up by the arguing, but does stir when Sirius shakes him awake, face covered in blood from his broken nose, eyes wide and frightened.

Sirius begs him to leave with him; Regulus tells him no, but promises to stop Walburga following him. Promises to distract her until he’s settled.

Sirius hugs him tightly, and whispers something Regulus can’t hear but can feel against his temple, and leaves.

(Regulus distracts his parents by finally telling everyone that he’s deaf at the first society event they attend after Sirius runs away. Rabastan Lestrange grabs him by the shoulder and demands that he pay attention, calls him rude; and Regulus sneers back at him, and replies in a carefully loud voice that ‘I’m not rude, I’m deaf. I’d imagine the rude one, Rabastan, is the one blaming the person incapable of hearing him for not responding to his words. You should be embarrassed.’

The delighted amusement at how thoroughly Regulus dresses down Bella’s brother in law is only just surpassed by the shock at the revelation. By the time he returns to school for his fifth year, most of the Pureblood children his age have been put through lessons in BSL; he starts communicating with his friends in the original French sign language again to keep their conversations private.)

Side points:

-Lily already knows BSL, and knows Reg is deaf long before anyone else. They keep each other company in Slug Club, gossiping in corners. Regulus has some of the best observational gossip to share; when Sirius and the rest of the Marauders figure out that their favourite gossip from Remus came from Lily who got it from Reg, they Lose their collective minds.

-After the start of Fifth year, when Remus has moons that leave him suffering from sensory overload, he sits in the back of the library with Regulus and takes sign language lessons from him. They don’t talk, and Sirius knows to stay away, and eventually Remus figures out that Regulus has access to the best hot chocolate, courtesy of being friends with all the House Elves.

-When James starts his pursuit of Regulus, he tries similar things to when he was pursuing Lily; namely, charming things to serenade him. It takes him an embarrassing number of attempts to realise just why it’s not even garnering Regulus’ irritation; Sirius laughs so hard he falls off his bed. James switches tactics sheepishly.

-Sirius and Regulus’ reconciliation is a stuttering kind of thing, but when he eventually apologises for the arguing and how it got Regulus hurt, he tells him to stop. Sirius absolutely should be sorry for how he treated Regulus when he wasn’t able to speak in support of him, but he doesn’t need to apologise for their mother. She was never Sirius’ fault.

deaf regulus and coda james. deaf regulus who used to get so sad when sirius would go on long rants about the muggle music his friends listened to that he would never be allowed to himself, even if they did a hearing spell. deaf regulus who gets awful migraines when he uses magic to be able to hear. coda james who sees all of this and has the desperate need to make regulus happy. coda james who sits with regulus and sings the songs he wants to hear with regulus' fingers pressed to his adam's apple so he can enjoy the vibrations of the songs without harming himself

i have ideas for fanfics all the time in my head and one of them is regulus or remus being deaf and i really want to make one, but i need to educate myself more first because the closest experience i have to the deaf community is my mom being hard at hearing (she has hearing aids) but ik that that isn’t even deafness so i guess what im asking is what do i do to educate myself more?

ideal hawkahy endgame is that they move in together after they go home and hawkeye thinks it'll be a brilliant morale booster to adopt two or three deaf cats to cheer mulcahy up, and it works wonders right off the bat, but then he quickly finds out that deaf cats can meow incredibly loud because they can barely hear themselves, and the cats quickly find out that hawkeye is the only dad who will answer them when they meow

#also interesting: genetically deaf cats tend to have all white fur. maybe not the best combo with black turtlenecks... #shebbz shoutz #mash #hawkahy

How would Ma’alefa’ak sign for Ma’alenca’andra, do you think?

This is how you sign "Mars" in ASL! It's a combination of the sign for "planet" and the sign for "red". I imagine the martians would create a unique sign for Ma'aleca'andra in Martian Sign Language.

I try not to make new sign words and avoid drawing characters signing their sign name (I stick to fingerspelling) because it's not my place as a hearing person to add to a language and a culture I'm not a part of. I don't have the authority!

#askjesncin #martian manhunter #ma'alefa'ak #jl remix #I headcanon Ma'al codeswitches from ASL to BASL to Martian Sign depending on who he's with #I avoid drawing Ma'al signing BASL cuz I worry it's potentially appropriative for me as a non-Black hearing person to draw #dc hire me to make a martian manhunter show so I can hire a bunch of deaf people on it
