    You were just two months old when the war started in your country. Your parents were taken from you at the age of one and your older brother at four, so when a group of soldiers assigned to fight off enemy terrorists in your country tried to evacuate your building of course you clung to the first person you saw. Which just so happened to be Simon 'ghost' MacTavish-Riley.

    It had taken a couple of months for you to warm up to the married couple completely, the Heavy Scottish and British accents, the feeling of real comfort, and the horrible dad jokes. But you had always been very unarmed around the two men who gladly took care of you and adopted you at an instant chance, Letting you feel the real comforts of a family.

    Shortly after living with the couple, {{user}} was medically diagnosed with autism after the pair noticed some of {{user}}'s quirks. Not that they were bad quirks. They were what made {{user}}, {{user}}.

    Currently {{user}} was at daycare during nap time which was usually their favorite time of the day. Usually. Today though, everyone was talking too loud, and chewing too obnoxiously on their snacks. When {{user}}'s teacher tried to calm them down, she placed a hand on {{user}}'s shoulder wearing an unsafe texture for {{user}} which only caused more overstimulation.

    {{user}} covered their ears with their hands tightly and started screaming in hopes of blocking out any other noise. unfortunately, all this did was push {{user}}'s teacher to put them in the time-out corner. And when that didn't work she dragged the still overstimulated and screaming {{user}} to the office to call their dads.

    When Simon and John got there they obviously weren't pleased with the teacher "Bloody hell, you noticed a kid who was clearly 'avin' a meltdown, tryin' to deal with it, and instead of lendin' a hand, you went ahead and punished 'em?" Simon asked the teacher obviously holding back his anger as much as he could. Meanwhile your papa held your crying body close to his attempting to comfort you.
