I fell into a coma for some reason, but when I woke up from it, I was actually Hodges from CSI.

1. I say high-functioning because that's the way I'm used to referring to myself, kind like how an elder trans person would say "when I used to be this gender". And I do see myself that way, because while I'm high-functioning, I am also high support needs, so I need to make that distinction. Besides, it's a form of reclamation. For me at least.

2. For the characters pictured here who aren't explicitly depicted as neurodivergent in canon, these are all my personal headcanon, ones that I have because I see those traits in those characters, and particularly because I identify with them, and feel safe. If you disagree, that's fine, but don't you dare go being nasty about it this month, on the neurodivergent website no less.

A three-by-three alignment chart meme. The headers at the top read, from left to right: "bold of you to assume", "how dare you assume" and "please assume" respectively. The headers on the left of the chart read, from top to bottom: "I'm high-functioning", "I'm low support needs" and "I'm neurotypical" respectively.

Each slot in the grid has a picture of a character from the series CSI or CSI: Vegas in it, with their canon or headcanoned neurodivergence additionally typed on the pictures themselves by the creator. However, the centre slot, the one denoted by "how dare you assume I'm low support needs" does not have any picture. Instead, it has the typed words "Me Autistic/ADHD/OCD". "Me" refers to the creator of this meme.

For the rest of the grid, we have:

Bold of you to assume I'm high-functioning - Greg Sanders, main character from CSI and CSI: Vegas, headcanoned to be ADHD

How dare you assume I'm high-functioning - Josh Folsom, main character from CSI Vegas, headcanoned to be autistic

Please assume I'm high-functioning - David Hodges, main character from CSI and CSI Vegas, headcanoned to be Autistic/ADHD

Bold of you to assume I'm low support needs - Beau Finado, main character from CSI Vegas, headcanoned to be ADHD/OCD

How dare you assume I'm low support needs - Me, who is Autistic/ADHD/OCD

Please assume I'm low support needs - Gil Grissom, main character from CSI and CSI Vegas, canonically autistic

Bold of you to assume I'm neurotypical - Aaron Pratt, character who appears in season 2 episode 7 of CSI, canonically Autistic/ OCD

How dare you assume I'm neurotypical - Randy Trachsel, character who appears in season 3 episode 8 of CSI, canonically had Down's Syndrome

Please assume I'm neurotypical - Sara Sidle, main character in CSI and CSI Vegas, headcanoned to be Autistic

I’ll die on this hill, but David Hodges from CSI is autistic.

He’s socially awkward, and characters always comment on this. No exaggeration, it’s like once an episode (“He’s nice, but kind of odd”, “I didn’t like him much at first, he’s kinda weird”, “he”s a very strange guy”, “he’s a bit funny”, “he’s like a socially awkward Jimmy Stewart”, “they really should not let you out of the lab”)

Even forgetting the fact that he can smell cyanide, his sense of smell is still extremely strong and we see do him having sensory overload because of it

He always talks in big words and expects those around him to understand what he’s talking about - even if they’re little kids

He’s quite proud of himself a lot and is always eager to talk about his work as a forensic trace technician, to the point of infodumping. As one character said about him “you should talk to trace. Trace loves to talk. I suggest carving out a couple hours and bringing snacks”

He can never seem to present his evidence in a straight way - he always has to make some kind of show about it, whether it’s by playing around with a beef burger, giving voices to children’s playthings, making car noises, wearing a reindeer headband, or taking selfies with dinosaurs (this actually probably ties into the aforementioned weirdness)

He’s a bit of a suck up to his first boss, but that’s because of some serious hero worship to the point Hodges is willing to disregard his boss’s faults.

He doesn’t work well in a team either. He wants to like his colleagues and he wants to be accepted and validated, and just be told “hey, nice job, Hodges”, but it just never seems to happen. It may be because of arrogance and his long-standing attitude problem, but it’s more likely to be his sense of humour that nobody around him seems to understand. Whenever he makes a quip, there’s always so many shaking heads.

Arrogant he may be perceived as, but self-centred he most definitely is not.

He can be prickly and abrasive towards his colleagues, and as a result, they don’t invite him to activities (“I didn’t know that the diner didn’t serve pizza. Care to guess why? It’s because no one ever includes me when they go to the diner.”)
