A little (fidget) gift
Added 2025-12-21 14:01:38 +0000 UTCI had this thought about Harver giving Keplan some kind of fidget toy in class because he struggles to sit still/keep his hands still sometimes. He's a menace with a pen on his worst days, and Harver wouldn't like to be distracted by all the extra noise either lol. (Keplan would actually think this is a really sweet thing for Harver to do though).
Lots of people have made comments about Keplan having ADHD (including myself) but it's not something I've ever made "official" about him. And, I don't feel the need to make it official, becuase whether it's something he has or not, it doesn't really change the course of the story. Not to mention, there are so many different experiences that people can have being neurodivergent, that if I ever officially announced a character as such, I would want to do it in a way that's more thoughtful and well-planned out. Does that make sense? lol. I hope so...
That said-- If I had to pick one way or the other, I'd say yes, it's very likely Keppers is undiagnosed ADHD. <3 I'm never gonna have a problem with people speculating or calling him that.

I have one in my desk at work! lol. I'm not sure it's an ADHD/ADD thing, but for me it's nice stress relief to have something to mess with when I'm agitated by callers

If I may throw in some advice regarding ADD/ADHD… If any of your readers are diagnosed with this and is seeing a psychiatrist, you can apply for time extensions and certain seating conditions, whenever you are taking exams. You can get up to twice the time allotted, when taking any exams. You can even be placed in a room without distractions. I was diagnosed with ADD, and I discovered this advantage that helped me to pass my certifications for my career!
