Tuvok Things

#autistic Tuvok #he knows (old) Vulcan sign bc he was taught by that monk he was sent to #the monk was already an old man and Tuvok by canon's time is in his 90's-100's so I'd wager it's a biiit outdated #luckily his family is telepathic - unluckily most everyone else he interacts with on the daily isn't #I think being nonverbal was something he experienced more when he was younger and became overstimulated more easily bc he didn't know what #being overstimulated was or what signs to look for - what to avoid etc #I love Tuvok he has a whole little personality arc #tfw you express your emotions 'wrong' no matter where you are #or who's judging you #st voyager #st voyager art #Tuvok #Tuvok art #I hold him very dear to my heart #I think he worried that he wouldn't be a good father for a long time #but after having one child he and T'Pel looked at each other and were like ACTUALLY.....Can we get three more of these things??? #I'll bet people who work with him think that he must get along smoother with Vulcans - but no. #Vulcans also consider him strange and socially inept - just in a different way #and he doesn't care!! anymore!! #Forever thinking about the fact that Tuvok is lonely yet doesn't seem to know how to make friends #Tuvok: (is lonely) ............ -goes to read in the corner and just let that simmer- #WELL let me rephrase - he KNOWS....it's just....so MUCH #ugh... #heheh I dunno if I explained it right but yeah -nodnod- #Tuvok is the type of adult who was a punk but looks at punk young people now and is like -disappointed sigh- kids... #His son Elieth is trying to tell him why it's okay to stim yes even in public and Tuvok is only half listening bc he's distracted by #a piercing which he was NOT informed of........=_=.... #Tuvok is old and he can be wrong sometimes as a treat <3 so he can have the experience of his kids being like D AD!!! LISTEN TO ME!!! #also they're wearing some sort of formal garb for an event of some kind #Me: uugaahah lights to BRIGHT makes me antsy and a lil mad!!! -dims them- aaa just like Tuvok ~
