Two of my all time favorite cartoon blorbos being redemption arc bastards…. autistics who found identity under structure but found out the systems they were working for/born into were corrupt and only using them and didn’t actually care for their well being and just hurt others and reject those who don’t fit into their rigid structures and then coming over to the good side bc they’re good people but not knowing quite how to act or exist in a life where they have to dictate themself and their own identity and struggling to make connections but then eventually do and they feel more like themselves as their authentic personalities shine through in degrees they could never have before because the oppressive systems they came from stifled them and punished those who existed in different ways than what was enforced and now that they have the freedom to be themselves they become passionately invested in dorky interests that bring them joy while learning to live with the people around them loving and accepting them for who they are
