There was a conversation in one of the most recent episodes on TSAMS where Moon explicitly states "I'll let Solar tell you about that in extreme autistic detail"
YES.
As an autistic person, looking at Solar (or even Eclipse and Lunar; other Eclipses) everything looks normal.
I put on the masking mentality and OH MY GOD??!!?!!!
Solar, an extremely monotone man who sits there and finds comfort people, getting to know them and attaching every good thing to that person. At one point it was Nexus, then Nebula.
I'm not going to get into how AUTISTIC Nebula and Jack are but Solar is definitely a main example in how the show likes representing Autism or neurodivergent tendencies.
Solar when he lost Jack was so upset that he shut down and hardly reacted, hyper focusing on getting his son back that when he was told to stop and think on his actions the major flood of emotions was mentally debilitating. Then again that fueled his focus for the creator.
Solar's reactions to Nebula are nothing short of business proposals, they talk as if they're contractually obligated to hang out yet you can tell they really like each other. The way Solar sees Nebula and immediately knows "well she probably wants to play her favorite game" is something undeniably AUTISTIC. He withholds information for the next interaction without making it seem like he's focusing on every little detail about her.
He knows things about Jack that sure, are obvious, but it's difficult to learn from something you created so he let's Jack tell him things or bonds with him in simple and entertaining ways like watching TV or playing games.
Lunar is hyper emotional, the complete opposite of Solar. He uses his emotions in his everyday life and conforms to what makes other people the happiest.
Though we don't get to see much of it anymore, the way Eclipse and Lunar spoke is as though they were falling back into old habits while still keeping it healthy, both trauma and autism traits. They push each other away and keep each other at an arms reach, but they want a relationship.
Lunar with children is me with children, fine with them until it's too much. It's why he can't run the daycare but can babysit Jack and Dazzle just fine. It's why he gets along with Moon who; quite literally also possesses autistic traits.
Lunar has very specific people he's comfortable with but has no problem branching out to meet people, he'll always shrink back into his family though.
Eclipse, my belothed little angry autistic entity. Eclipse has what I like to call "aggressive autism" it stems from trauma and anxiety.
Eclipse wants to be close to people, wants to have that relationship he did with Puppet, but physically can't in fear of people dying or leaving him once he finally gets into routine.
Yes, Eclipse has a routine. No, it isn't 100% healthy.
Eclipse is an insomniac, he stays up all night calculating solutions and trying DESPERATELY to find answers. Just like Solar, when he gets the time the emotions get to him and he falls apart.
He's rude to people, whether it's telling people to fuck off or that he doesn't need them to care for him it always ends up something like this.
"Fuck you"
"I'm not going anywhere"
"I don't need you to monitor me like I'm a baby"
"I'm not, I just think you need company"
"I don't want your pity"
(Not an accurate conversation, just vibe based)
But he never tells them to leave unless he's absolutely overwhelmed.
Speaking of, Mimic. When that happened and Puppet was trying to help him he was extremely overwhelmed, trauma had resurfaced and he was scared. He wanted anyone who could see him vulnerable to get away, yet he seemed almost to want them there.
Eclipse needs people, but refuses it because of the way he was created and treated.
CLIPSEY. OH CLIPSEY I LOVE YOU
The most recent Eclipse, fem nights Clipsey.
She is the ICON OF AUTISM. The first time we meet her she's playing what she deems a harmless prank on Sunny, pretending to be Roxas just to mess around. She doesn't seem apologetic because she doesn't understand the amount of pain it could cause.
Immediately after she changes focus to the portal and goes to a dimension that I can only describe to be her hyperfixation.
She's extremely sporadic and monotone but you can tell she's genuine. She threatens people without remorse and pulls the people she was raised with closer to her.
She LOVES her sisters, sure do I know what happened between her and Luna? No, but I know she loves Sunny and Moonie.
This girl is threatening men for Sunny, actively repulsed or oblivious to romantic gestures, and overall very upbeat despite her mischievous side.
She's reliable when people need her and refuses to decline if it's genuinely an emergency.
So yeah, this is my autism analysis on the Eclipses!
Ps. Ruin is autistic asf but shhhh
