I wanna talk briefly about my newest headcanon: autistic Leni Loud

So over the last couple months I’ve been watching a lot of the Nickelodeon show The Loud House and I’ve come to headcanon the character, Leni Loud, as autistic. I see a lot of familar traits in Leni and she’s definitely the character I relate to the most (also my favorite).

First of all, Leni has a special interest in fashion and she even makes various clothing in many episodes. Also, a lot like me, Leni has a lot of trouble when it comes to taking things people say literally. There’s way too many examples to name because it happens at least like once an episode but it usually involves one of the characters saying something and Leni taking it literally. Just one example can be found in the episode “House Music” in which the Loud family forms a family band. During the episode Luna tells Leni that she can sing backup and Leni ends up taking her words literally and singing the words “backup”. And another example occurs in “Driving Miss Hazy”, when Lori tells Leni to make her bed Leni ends up taking her literally and builds her a bed frame from scratch. As an autistic person myself I often have problems myself when it comes to taking things people say literally and I often have trouble recognizing sarcasm or when people are joking instead of being serious.

Next, like a lot of autistic people, there is evidence that she has routines that she follows such as in the episode “space invader” when she mentions that she brushes her hair exactly 50 times every day.

Finally there’s the fact that Leni’s stock pose is something known as raptor hands. Raptor hands is basically when you have your arms close to your body with your hands bent. Raptor hands can be common among autistic people and it’s pretty much Leni’s signature pose.

Crazy to think the comic's come as far as it has (Kayla here, she was first), even if it's taken 17 years, from some random characters I made in paint to having an actual story and characters and setting and character development
