Description
(created to potentially be a part of the new keroro project)Haven't drawn myself in ages! anyway, It's a bio of myself.
Name: Maxoxo (BUT USUALLY LIKES TO BE CALLED "MAXO" AS IT'S EASIER TO SAY)
age: 18 (January 21)
bio: At birth, I was diagnosed with severe autism, and never said my first word until I was about 4 or 5 years old, while I was still a tiny tadpole. During this time I was getting so much clinical help being introduced to the world that I now call Rehab. I was very shy and almost never wanted to be around anyone except for my family. I always liked to do things over and over again if I thought it was fun, which is an issue with autism. I had a very hard time being social with everyone around me, who are now all my friends, and still have problems getting involved in conversations.
through middle school into high school, I started to make tons of friends as they all understood my interesting past, now I find myself about to graduate high school and get a diploma and be introduced to the outside world.
Likes: Sgt. Frog / Keroro Gunsou, choir, animation (well, learning how to), peace, happiness, orikeros, Fairy Tail, Roller coasters, surfing, and maybe soon Musical theater and acting.
Dislikes: Mean people, not understanding things the intended way (personally for me, part of autism), bullying, war, working, and trying new things for the very first time.

Fellow orikeros of mine are all inspired by ALL OF YOU! XD Thank you all for giving me something to inspire me about!

Maxo - lemme tell you this. Your story kinda has a soft spot with me because I have this thing called 22Q Deletion Syndrome *its got loads of other names, in Canada it could be called something else, in Japan it could be called something else. It's also called velo cardio facial syndrome in the United States by some doctors.* 22Q causes most of my problems, it makes my heart bad, it makes my emotions all messed up and it just makes everything get all messed up.
I have heart problems and stomach problems and I used to have seizures because of it - seizures only as a newborn though, thankfully.
I have been in Special ED nearly my whole life and I've always been delayed, learning to walk and talk around the age of one or two I think? Whenever I was on the playground at school, I would stay around the teachers and I was shy. In my whole life I had trouble being around kids my own age. Also, I'm not good with talking to other girls despite I am one 
A good friend of mine has Autism, sometimes i want to punch him in the face, some times I want to hug him and think he's the best guy ever. In fifth grade I was in an special ED class and I was the only girl there, the teacher who was awesome BTW, said I was the daughter she never had. God I loved that teacher. So much!
Now I'm in a special needs SCHOOL and I'm struggling a bit to get by. My parents think I'm needing a special diploma but no, no, no! I want a regular one, and I want to get a job as a writer, one of my first steps is this Orikero Project, then my second step is just trying to get my name out there in the real world of writing.
I want people to understand folks with special needs and that when one day when I'm big and famous with my writing and influencing others (because of MY writing), I want them to say 'wow she's had a rather rough time but she made it through'.
I know there are other people out there that are much worse off than I am. I also want to help those people that are worse off then I am with as much as I can. But right now there isn't much I can do for them. Ya know? I believe your character, Maxoxo, I'll have use for him in the project.
Sorry about the long comment! >U<

Hey I'm going to note you with the plot/idea of the project okay? See if your interested because I think I've got some ideas for Maxoxo in this story I came up with.

Thanks, by the way. I'll look at it more deeply after I get out of school, but I love the idea a lot!

Ok. It's possible I may be able to voice act, but haven't had any of that experience yet.

That's interesting. High functioning?

in other words, Low functioning autism is severe. High functioning is minor.

it means that you do well with everything around you like most people, but you still have side effects that have to do with autism, like getting in conversations with others, saying the right things to people without feeling strange after saying it, etc. In other words, you function well in other places, but still have minor issues that may stick for who knows how long, but you do well. (not sure if that made any sense the way I said it)
