i have absolutely no idea what this is

im currently working on the comic, a rowdy 3 drawing (!!!!!!) alongside a bunch of stuff irl, and instead of doing any of those my brain came up with this…thing and wouldnt let it go until i drew it.

(2 days later, farah walks into their flat and sees todds drawing in a frame hanging up on the wall. she asks dirk what it is, and he bursts into tears, explaining how its the most beautiful work of art ever and hes going to treasure it for life)

Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency is amazing because it’s exactly zero neurotypicals attempting to navigate a world that doesn’t make any goddamn sense and they’re all just kind of bouncing off each other bonking into the neurotypical world trying to fit in and doing a hell of a bad job of it and goddamn if that isn’t much more realistic representation than other media about neurodivergent people.

yknow what i absolutely love about dghda? how socially unaware all the former blackwing subjects are. like these guys have no clue what to do in normal society and that absolutely makes sense

dirk is the most well adjusted out of all of the ones we know of and even he climbs into this random guy's apartment through the window, immediately calls him his assistant and then declares that he lives there now. he's clueless. he wants friends but he doesn't know how to talk to people, even after 16 years lived in freedom

and then there's bart and the rowdy 3

bart doesn't know how radios and tvs work, nor what hotels are. all she's known her whole life is blackwing labs and the fact that she's supposed to kill people. so that's what she does. she doesn't know how to talk to people, she just goes with the flow

and of course the rowdy 3, the absolute icons. unlike dirk, who wants to be a part of society, and bart, who really doesn't care, they actively reject social norms. they saw punk culture and ran with it. they're rude, violent and, well, rowdy. and they like that. but they're also stupid in the way that you would be if you grew up in a lab with (probably) next to no real education. none of them have any functioning braincells or social grace and that works for them

i didn't talk about mona or francis/moloch bc we don't really have a real frame of reference for either of them. mona is an inanimate object 99% of the time and francis has been in a coma for several decades

no caption we ball

[ID: Digital art of Dirk Gently and Todd Brotzman from DGHDA (TV 2016). Dirk is sitting in a chair, Todd leaning over him to kiss him on the mouth. He has his hands on Dirk's shoulders, and Dirk's own hands are raised slightly as if in surprise. /end ID]

I get why people dislike Ken and I also get why people have criticisms for the way his character was handled, but also I’m sorry, if they non-consensually hooked me up to a drip and a catheter and locked me in a white room in a taxi with no one but a dog to talk to for two months, I’d also put on my Big Bad suit and start hunting down the closest protagonists like it was Pokémon Go
