How / Why did Sparks learn sign language?
This is an ask that was actually sent to me a really long time ago. I doubt whoever asked it is still interested but I’m sorry I haven’t responded until now anyways. This is actually in her bio, but I will recap. Sparks is not hard of hearing but she’s always had a large craving for knowledge in a fruitless effort in getting her parents attentions. While in school she put herself through multiple classes, mainly language courses. So outside of knowing English she has learned and is fluent in Spanish, French and American Sign Language. She’s not perfect in anyway, and has a distinct american accent, but she can understand and communicate efficiently. In all her verses (BESIDES RE), before the apocalypses, she worked as a flight attendant trying to save up for her education. The foreign languages she knew helped her get the job and they flourished during her time.
After everything fell she didn’t have much opportunities to use her Spanish and French anymore. Her ASL on the other hand has come in handy many times, and she’s tried to teach it to groups she’s been in to avoid being heard my whatever monsters lurk about.
Specifically in my TWD, Z Nation, and Quiet Place verses she uses it the most.
I would LOVE to interact with more muses with anything regarding ASL.
Especially a Connie, Daryl, (TWD) or 10k (Z nation) muse.
i know lots of people get all hot and heavy for the ‘rebel/bad influence who goes after the goody goody/nerd to corrupt them’ but what about the reverse? what if the rebel was the one minding their own business when the goody goody suddenly started approaching them, asking them out, trying to get to know them. constant pestering and cute little quips that leave the rebel flustered (and a little flattered but don’t tell the goody goody shhh).
just picture it. initially people think the rebel is the one giving the goody goody a hard time but instead the rebel’s trying to avoid getting seen with the other a lot bc no you’re too pure and sweet you’re gonna ruin my punk rock image sTOP. but the goody goody just doesn’t care about image or labels they just know that they want the rebel and dammit they’re gonna get the rebel.

i just want an something where he’s the HORRIBLE bad boy
—-never does in anything good, smokes weed, drinks his self to nearly death, always back talks to everyone, doesn’t give a single SHIT about anyone, he’s just the individual. but then there’s this one girl that he just thinks is the absolute cutest thing in the world—which she is, she’s that always follows the rules and does the best she can type, has never EVER done anything bad, and is honestly the most innocent girl you will ever meet. the boy always has a straight face—except when he hears H E R, the smallest and i mean the smallest, grin comes to his face.
au where two people are connected and if one gets hurt or touched the other feels it, though. ( inspired by x tbh. )
how about a plot about “you broke my heart two years ago when you decided to leave and i finally moved on, and now you tell me you’re back for good?“ cause angst and flashback paras wow
