ⅲ. CONNOR HAS MANY HABITS THAT WOULD BE ATTRIBUTED TO AUTISM IF HE WERE HUMAN . HE STIMS ( WHICH I WILL TALK ABOUT LATER) , HE IS VERY UNPREDICTABLE  EMOTIONALLY BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER DEVIANCY ( HE HIMSELF IS NEVER SURE HOW HE WILL REACT TO A SITUATION BEFORE IT HAPPENS) AND HE FORMS RATHER STRONG ATTACHMENTS TO PEOPLE , ROUTINES AND METHODS VERY QUICKLY . HE HAS MADE THIS LINK IN HIS HEAD , BUT HAS NEVER LABELLED HIMSELF BECAUSE ALONG WITH HIS STRUGGLE WITH SELF IDENTITY , HE DOESN’T FEEL COMFORTABLE USING A HUMAN CONCEPT TO DESCRIBE HIMSELF - HE DOESN’T FEEL WORTH ANY OF THOSE WORDS . THAT IS UNTIL HANK NOTICES HIM GETTING STRESSED AND SITS HIM DOWN , TELLS HIM THAT HE’S AUTISTIC AND WRITES UP A ROTA TO HELP HIM FEEL COMFORTABLE IN THE HOUSE - IN HIS HOME . WITH A LITTLE MORE ROUTINE . 

ⅳ. ON THE TOPIC OF CONNOR AND HIS PLACE ON THE AUTISTIC SPECTRUM , ALTHOUGH HE IS VERY HIGH- FUNCTIONING , HE HAS ONE NOTICABLE TRAIT THAT KEEPS COMING BACK AND AS I MENTIONED BEFORE , THAT’S STIMMING .   THE MOST OBVIOUS EXAMPLE OF THIS IS HIS QUARTER , HE TEACHES HIMSELF TRICKS AND TESTS HIS ABILITIES BEFORE HE ARRIVES AT CRIME SCENES BECAUSE THE STIMULATION HELPS TO SETTLE HIM MIND , CALM HIM DOWN AND PUT HIM IN THE RIGHT HEADSPACE TO BE ABLE TO DEAL WITH ALL THE NEW AND DEMANDING ELEMENTS THAT HE MIGHT ENCOUNTER IN SUCH AN INTENSE ENVIRONMENT . THE COIN ISN’T HIS ONLY STIM THOUGH , HE HAS A SMALL COLLECTION OF OBJECTS THAT HELP CALM HIM GOING , AND HE ALSO HAS A LOT OF SELF-STIM HABITS , SUCH AS THE MOVEMENTS WITH HIS HANDS AND FINGERS,  AS WELL AS MANIPULATED SELF DIAGNOSTIC SCANS THAT HELP HIM GROUND HIMSELF .  

ⅴ . CONNOR LIKES ALL DOGS , BUT SUMO BECOMES VERY IMPORTANT TO HIM VERY QUICKLY BECAUSE HE TAKES ON THE ROLL OF A SUPPORT DOG . WHEN CONNOR NEEDS TO CALM DOWN , OR NEEDS AN OUTLET - HE KNOWS THAT HE CAN GO AND SIT WITH SUMO AND STROKE HIM AND TALK TO HIM , MAYBE EVEN CRY A LITTLE INTO HIS NECK , AND SUMO WILL LICK HIM AND GIVE HIM A BIG OLD BOOF AND LET HIM KNOW EVERYTHING IS OKAY.  EVENTUALLY WHEN CONNOR MOVES IN WITH HANK , HE SLEEPS CURLED UP WITH SUMO EVERY NIGHT AND THE BIG BALL OF FUR SEEMS TO STOP THE NIGHTMARES ABOUT THE PRODUCTION LINE AND JERICHO GOING DOWN IN FLAMES. 

ⅵ. CONNOR’S AUTISM TIES IN VERY HEAVILY WITH HIS SEXUALITY . BEING ACE , CONNOR ISN’T INTERESTED IN ANY SEXUAL OR EVEN HEAVY ROMANTIC BEHAVIOUR , AND HE CAN BECOME VERY DISTRESSED IF SOMEBODY TRIES TO INSTIGATE ANY KISSING OR TOUCHING THAT HE FEELS UNCOMFORTABLE WITH - EVEN TO THE POINT OF SHUTTING OFF COMPLETELY AND NOT RESPONDING TO ANY INTERACTION FOR A WHILE . IT’S A THIN LINE HOWEVER , BECAUSE HE’S ALSO EXTREMELY TOUCH STARVED - HE DOES REALLY WANT SENSUAL ATTENTION , AFFECTION . SOFT KISSES THAT HAVE BEEN GIVEN PERMISSION TO LAND ON HIS FOREHEAD OR CHEEK - TOUCHES THAT MAKE HIM FEEL SAFE - ESPECIALLY FROM PEOPLE THAT HE’S BECOME ATTACHED TO ( COUGH . MARKUS . COUGH ) .  

ⅶ. CONNOR BECOMES VERY ATTACHED TO RALPH , VISITS HIM OFTEN AND HELPS HIM FIX UP THE HOUSE AND GARDEN . HE FEELS VERY EMOTIONALLY DEDICATED TO THE ANDROID BECAUSE HE NOTICES A BIT OF HIMSELF IN THERE - HE’S PRETTY SURE THAT THE GARDENING UNIT HAS SOMETHING SIMILAR TO ADD/ ADHD  RATHER THAN AUTISM - ALTHOUGHT THERE MAY BE SOME IN THERE TOO . HE’S JUST VERY HAPPY TO HAVE SOMEONE THAT HE CAN BE SOFT AND CARING WITH , A VERY CLOSE , BUT PLATONIC RELATIONSHIP WHERE THEY CAN LOOK AFTER EACH OTHER AND CALM EACH OTHER DOWN WHEN THINGS ARE TOUGH .

Headcanon 003: Instagrammer

Nik originally downloaded Instagram because he saw an opportunity to have fun with some artsy pictures and filters and shit, but he wound up realizing it was the perfect platform to help reinforce his image. Lots of liquor, party selfies, and cute girls to remind everyone exactly who Nik Mason is supposed to be. And, of course, still some artsy pics just for the fun off it, but usually with some witty comment so people don’t think he’s too deep.

                                                  DADS

RACHEL  LOVES  HER  DADS.  Even  if  they  weren’t  home  all  the  time,  she  still  loved  them  both  unconditionally.  Both  of  her  dads  have  careers  in  the  arts;  While  neither  of  them  act  anymore,  they’re  still  involved  with  theatre  all  around  Ohio.  Hiram  directs  and  Leroy  choreographs.  They’re  an  unstoppable  duo ---  theatres  all  around  the  state  are  constantly  asking  for  them  to  come  in  and  do  shows.  Once  in  awhile,  they  book  cruises,  meaning  they’re  gone  for  weeks  at  a  time.  Rachel  misses  them  when  they’re  gone,  but  she  also  understands  why  they’re  gone  so  much.  She  appreciates  that  they  work  so  hard  and  that  influence  is  part  of  the  reason  she  grew  up  to  be  so  focused  on  achieving  her  dreams.  She  knows  how  hard  her  dads  work  and  she  wants  to  be  just  like  them.  

It  doesn’t  mean  that  she  didn’t  get  lonely  from  time  to  time,  but  she  looked  at  it  as  preparing  her  for  the  real  world.  She  wouldn’t  have  her  dads  there  holding  her  hand  forever,  so  she  prepared  early.  As  a  result  of  this,  Rachel  is  incredibly  independent.  Though  she  didn’t  object  to  her  dads  bringing  her  a  glass  of  water  whenever  she  was  sad.  She  still  tells  them  everything,  filling  them  in  on  what  she’s  up  to  and  anytime  it’s  possible,  they  fly  to  New  York  to  visit  her.  Whenever  they’re  able  to  attend  one  of  her  performances,  she’s  over  the  moon  and  finds  herself  performing  even  better!  

                                  Leroy  and  Hiram  Berry  are  Rachel’s  heroes.

Headcanon 003: The Fight

In the time since Maeve left home, she has trained herself to fight far more than just boxing as she started out. Judo, Kickboxing, Taekwando, Jiu-Jitsu… And with weaponry like archery, knife throwing, staff-wielding… The list goes on. Any opportunity she has had to learn another way to defend herself or someone else, whether it be a short class or years of training, she has never wanted to miss out on a single chance. To others, she may seem like a weapon herself, but for her this may just be a result of the fear she’ll one day be that vulnerable child she was, helpless and abused with no way to protect herself. It’s as if every lesson is one that she may have missed when she needed it most. That is the thought that drives her. That is the fight she never stops fighting.

Teen Angst #003

During school and any part of her education, Toni didn’t have much of an attention span. She wasn’t an ace student nor did she care that much. She was one to go to football games and parties. Hang out with anyone that gave her the attention. Mainly the country boys that wanted to smoke pot or get laid, which is where she tried to fit in. All the girls didn’t care to look at Toni for they thought she was too odd and too different, along with name calling and calling her a whore. Which she didn’t care less.

Other than work, Justin only does so much sleeping with people. It's become a norm for him. The whole act is no longer special. Which is why he never considers fooling around with his friends and much less his crushes or people of interest. If you're his boyfriend or girlfriend, which isn't likely because thar requires a closeness he doesn't let people have, sex won't come for a long long time. And that's because he knows it should mean something and wants it to mean something unlike all the escapades he has on the job. Sure, he doesn't know how to get sex in that place, but I reckon if he's in love it won't be sex. It will be making love. And it will mean something. But what boyfriend or girlfriend would be okay with him sleeping with others? He would have to get out of his job at that point and have told them or feel guilty. Hell he'd have to tell them before they were in a relationship. Which is why he avoids relationships. He'd lose his support and he needs that more than anything. So friends it is or not at all, but then again his friends know diddly squat. Everything must be hidden. But if and that's a big if if he ever gets that close to someone, he'll be scared, but he'll be head over heels and they'd practically have to be "the one" for him to even consider. That's all.

Due to her sisters all having names beginning with the letter A, Adella makes it her job to remember the names of any person she has met. After all, she has been called her sisters' names so much in her life and found it a bit annoying, so why accidentally call someone a name that was not their own when there was ways that she didn't have to do that. After she meets someone, she says their name over and over in her head to make sure it stays with her mind. She even does it as they speak, so that she could put the name to the face and instill it within her. It has yet to fail her since she started.
