you know, as far as autistic(/-coded) characters go I think I prefer the ones who are canonically difficult to get along with, opinionated, prone to outbursts of anger, or like, otherwise have traits that aren't just "socially awkward" and "has special interests". All these really beloved ones like Laios are the most palatable, unchallenging version of it.

#i'm tired of people taking characters like Laios and going 'this is how u do autism!' like it's not something so variable+#like it's only quirky traits (that might make some people misunderstand you but mostly nbd) laios is fine but not the 1 true autistic lol #Tannis imo is a really good canon one because even fans hate her for things like 'dislikes music' lmao #Brienne's another (not canon) but fans generally love her I think? But I think that's partly because of her introduction being #Catelyn's POV rather than when she's with Jaime or Dick or Hyle lol. if she was introduced in Jaime's POV i think people would despise her
