Thank you! >Stuttering when nervous is *literally* the caricature of stutterers. “T-t-there’s a gggggghost\[insert other scary situation\]!” has been done enough. Yeah, I'm going to rewrite his dialogues, I just want to avoid the " stressed=stuttering", that's stupid, especially since the character doesn't stutter at all when we meet him for the first time, I fell into caricature without meaning to, I'm going to correct it > Plenty of people who stutter actually have hard silent blocks, eye contact avoidance and other fear-based avoidance behaviors. We stutter (blocks) when ordering fast food, saying our name in the lowest stress situations, and when answering the phone with a friend. ordering fast food is not a high-stress situation. The character already has this kind of avoidance behavior, but he doesn't have "blocks" moment, which is, I guess, the times when the words just won't come out even to say things that seem "simple"?
