Dysregulation Accelerant

A person who doesn’t start the chaos but makes it hit maximum velocity in record time. They show up, hype the worst impulses, remove all internal brakes, and suddenly the situation goes from “manageable” to “why is everything on fire.”
They’re not the spark.
They’re the accelerant.
Things were steady until her dysregulation accelerant friends arrived — then the whole night detonated like it always does.

Accelerant Echo

The emotional after‑effect of someone who used to create instability in your life. They’re gone, but your body still reacts to reminders of them as if the chaos is still happening.
She’s been out of that relationship for months, but her Accelerant Echo fires the second someone raises their voice — even if it isn’t directed at her.
