why say faerie brain rather than name disabilities ?
this is good question . after all , maybe some people would listen and respect little bit better if actually have these names to understand why kossai is this way .
but ... would that really be true ? and even if so , should kossai have to exist around people who only tolerate because of these specific names , who would hate without " valid reason " ?
as kossai see , all of collective differences to " typical humans " come from faerie nature . even at core , this physical body is faerie one , in guise to resemble human one . this much is true about brain too .
problems come up in that faeries simply do work and think differently from humans . what is OK for faeries , what faeries understand , is not always what humans accept or understand . so too can this opposite be true .
of course , yes , in human world people understand and frame as disabilities . and for some aspects , kossai do accept names of disabilities - not entirely reject that have any disability . after all some of these things cause pains or troubles of various kinds , and forever will even with accomodations to help .
but at that same time , other things only hurt because other people will not give proper help , will not try to listen , will not try to understand or meet at level .
and that is where most aspects of brain fall , for kossai .
yes , have emotional problems , can struggle to learn and remember things , but those do not have to be huge mountain of problems .
if have people who can give time to just storm off and let out feelings where no one is hurt , or if people who explain in different ways , then would not be near as much problem .
these things can be relatively common in faeries - and will especially notice certain ones among faeries that live in human world , like sensory problems much easier to trigger here .
but then as such , these things do not feel like disability in context of other faeries . words like disability and specific names can help to move through human world legally , help to give accomodations , treatments , and such , but not necessarily useful way of measure identity for faeries .
and so that put in weird place . among humans , kossai is disabled in many ways . but those disabilities , those names , do not all factor into identity , and how choose to present identity .
because honestly , even when kossai did try to use and embrace those names ? people would still viscerally hate , because did not have means to do things in " right " way - people only shift goal posts , not actually dismantle .
kossai is faeries , and brain is faerie brain .
that is all which need .
but ... would that really be true ? and even if so , should kossai have to exist around people who only tolerate because of these specific names , who would hate without " valid reason " ?
