Full title on AO3 : The one where Frankie has the tism and cleo is a bit confused but trying her best
Chronology : Post-Movie 1
Headcanons : Autistic!Frankie, Frankie knows ASL
Author's note : This was written while I was extremely messed up on cold medicine and you can TELL
frankie kenw that they were different thaan everyone around them for anumber of reasosn. FOR one, they didn't see any oither people sticthed toggether, they figured thrat wasn't normal, and also they felt likthere was jsut something to them that was different in terms of how their brain worked. sure, they were a genuus, but there were all these social cues they just didn't get.
They wondered if they got that from rhe part of their brain that was from Albert Einstein cause everyone saidd he was autistic.
anyway they got. they tended to get overwhelmed suer easily from like noise and stuff and it was ennoying cause monster High was kinda aa lou dplace but they delt with it. it was easir once they made friedns because theyre friends generally at leadt were supposrtive even if they didnt necessarily get it.
they werent Actually too insecure about it until they were studying across form cleo (who was their friend now which they still weren't quite used to) and suddenlt a fire alerm went off (i;m just asusming they have fire drills caus elike there's surely still a risj of fires at the school but idk really so if thats innacucrate i appologize <3 )
frankie immediately went still, starlted by the sudden loud noise.
"frankie come on" cleo said, standing up sdn gesutring for her friend to do the same. "itsa drill we have to go outside"
"mm" frankie hummed, rocking back and forth slightly because it ws the only thing they coudl do to soothe themself from the loud oise. cleo rolled her eyes.
"frankie, seriously"
drankie didn;t respond and thats whenecleoo realized that somethingw as actually wrong.
she relmember d getting a text once frorm frankie (clawdeen had probaby taught them how to text) explaining that they did extenssive research (shocking /s) and realized they werre probablt autistic, followed by a few vidoes about what that meanst. cleo, wanting to do better and be a decent friend to them, had diligently watche d every single one and felt like she undersotod the monster at leadt a little 👌 bit moeer about what they dealt with
oen of the main things brougth up in those videos was siensory issues or, well, getting overwhelemd easily buy sensory things like sound or light being too much. that seemed to be what was happening now.
"frankie" cleo said in a more calm, patient, and quiet voice. "i understand oyr overwhelmed byt we need to go outside" she told thm. "it''ll be qusieter out there"
after a moment, frankie silently stood and bolted form the room. cleo sighed. tthat works too i guess
when she went outside the nearest exit she saw them curled in a ball in the grass, rocking abck in forth but looking a bit more peaceful. "better?" cleo asked. they smiled and nodded at her then befan to sign something in ASL (which ofc they knew because theres no way they dont its freakin. frankie they know everything). cleo frowned. "i don't know sign, frankie"
frankie hummed for a second before getting an idea. they pulled out their phone ans sent her a text.
sorry for that
"dont apologize" cleo told them. "if anything, i should apologixxe for being rude befor ei figured out what was going on"
its ok
"Student sare now permitted to go back inside" the intercomm voice (wikipedia says skullette) said.
"come on" cleo held out her hand to the other monster, helping them back up onff the ground. "we should get going"
ok
