Autistic Stimming

If there's anything I've felt about ace attorney since playing through the original trilogy, it's how cheated I've felt about the fandom interpretation of it. Y'all were so caught up with your gay boys and your Miles Edgeworths I didn't realize how much of this game was about WOMEN. THE CORE OF ACE ATTORNEY IS IN ITS FEMALE CHARACTERS. From Mia jumpstarting Phoenix and guiding him throughout the whole trilogy even after her death, her presence being the primary connecter of Phoenix and Maya, Maya and Godot, heck even Dahlia and Iris and the whole lot of them. From Franziska's earnest faith and consolation of Miles Edgeworth, even begrudgingly, pulling him out the trauma of his childhood with the face to face confrontation of a bullet wound in the same spot as the man who killed his father. Lana and Ema dragging Phoenix back into the thing he does best. Lana and Ema who's tragic story lies in a pair of sisters ruined by the heinous law system and their unconditional love for each other. Dahlia and Iris with a different version of sisterly tragedy, struggling through generational trauma in separate settings and support systems. The matter of the Fey tradition looming over the entire narrative and all the legal and social terror that comes with it. CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE ACE ATTORNEY WOMEN.

laios has very quickly become dear to me not just because he's an autistic protagonist but because his autism is itself one of the reasons his party has an edge over others. though we see him struggle in social situations, his special interest makes him hypercompetent in the context of dungeon survival. i'm aware that's not a NEW observation on him but i was impressed that he even used his special interest to successfully solve a crisis that relied on noticing social cues- he was able to pick out the impostors bc he honed in on the small discrepancies in their attitudes toward monsters. if that isn't weaponizing your autism, i don't know what is

What Is Stimming? (Self-Stimulatory Behaviors)

Hand and Finger Mannerisms

Finger flicking, and hand flapping can lead to tactile mannerisms

Upper Body Momentums

Rocking the body back and forth while sitting or standing, spinning, jumping and pacing.

Taste and Smell Stimulation

A persons sense of smell and taste. Sniffing or smelling people or objects, licking/tasting objects by placing them in the mouth.

Tactile Mannerisms

Fist clenching, skin rubbing, or scratching, with the hands or objects.

Visual Stimulation

Looking at something sideways, moving fingers in front of the eyes.

When a person feels anxious or overwhelmed or uncomfortable in a social situation, it can be their way of calming their mind.

* Stimming is also a way to keep the mind on track. The repetitive motions can allow those with autism to keep focused and clear their head of distractions.

* Stimming may be about self-regulation but it can also be a way to express their needs and feelings. They may be unconsciously communicating something - often distress or discomfort.

When routine stimming behaviour becomes more intense or exaggerated, it often indicates that something in the environment is bringing about feelings of anxiety. Pay attention and you could find your child communicating these feelings through their self-stimulatory behaviour.

Neurotypicals will never know the experience of seeing a person wearing big headphones or stimming with something at the store and taking out your own stim toy to try and gauge if they're neurodivergent too or just vibing, while also trying to telepathically communicate that you are also neurodivergent.

Thats true solidarity
