I am really, really glad this worked for you. I've spent years crushing any thoughts I've had of writing a blind character in fic because I didn't want to be that person. And then last year I slowly started on a bandom au with a blind protagonist, but it's been stalled at 30000 words and 'time passes is not a plot' for the past few months and I was just scrolling through the disability tag on pinboard this morning and this kind of popped fully formed out of my brain. It was kind of fun to be able to stretch with Tony's character a bit, like Tony has the intelegence and money and personality to have talking AIs and robots and all the tech and ability to make that tech do what he needs it to, but it's not so high-tech that the problem can just magicly be solved (see: Star Trek TNG).

And like, ngl, there's a big part of me that gets frustrated with fandom for being so good around trigger warnings and being sensative and respectufl to issues of queerness and gender and race, and yet someone can write a story about character A becoming disabled and suddenly becoming helpless and tragic until character B promises to take care of them and love them *anyway* and shows them the light with their love/penis. And everyone is like 'zomg so adorable/heart warming/sad!'. and I'm just like 'please warn for triggering ableist bullshit so I am prepared and won't feel like hdiing from society forever after reading your fic. I... apparently have a lot of feelings about this. Huh.

Ahahaha not offensive at all. I post all of that so that people can join me in the headdesking/mocking etc. :D

Anyway, thank you for reading even though this is not your usual fandom!
