Autistic Hunter Week - Day 6: Accommodations The world is a lot more manageable when everything isn't so loud! Plus, ear defenders/headphones would help hide witch ears.

Autistic Hunter Week - Day 5: Magic/Grimwalker

I was struggling with ideas for this one, but given his initial fascination with glyphs, I would love to see Hunter learning to draw them (even though I don't think they work in the human realm). He does have Flapjack, but still doesn't have magic like witches. I guess this one also counts as a special interest type of thing.

Autistic Hunter Week - Day 4: Gold & Red

Thought it would be fun to play with the idea of masking, both in the sense of masking to appear neurotypical, and his literal mask. I think it has a lot of potential for symbolism!

Autistic Hunter Week - Day 3: Hands/Eyes

I wanted to do something bigger for this one. I would assume with everything Belos did (and is implied to do), Hunter might be pretty touch-averse. I like to imagine, though, that as he feels safer and more comfortable, he would warm up to touch in general. So here's the whole group with him, and a shadow of perhaps how he used to feel about touch in the background, moving past it.

Autistic Hunter Week - Day 2: Stimming/Fidgeting

I like to think that if Hunter flapped his hands, Flapjack would flap his wings too! He is FLAPjack after all, right? They should be stimming buddies!

Autistic Hunter Week - Day 1: Special Interest/Infodump

Given how much he loves Flapjack, and the importance of Palistrom wood in making Grimwalkers, I think he would take an interest in Palismen in general! Also it's just a good excuse to draw a bunch of them with him. Outfit definitely inspired a bit by the official art of him with the cardinal patterned top.
