Alice by heart enjoyers - tell me what’s your favourite song from the show and I’ll make a poll to determine the top fan favourite song?

soooo… Alice Spencer has autism, maybe?

Has her favourite book memorised by heart

It’s her hyperfixation, and she escapes into that world during difficult times because she finds it comforting, even once the comfort *object* of the book is taken from her

Her monologue at the start of down the hole is literally her getting overstimulated by everyone else in the bunker and going “nope it’s hyperfixation reality escape time”

Similar to the previous point but she finds intimacy with Alfred difficult she struggles communicating feelings so she projects them onto the fantasy world of Alice and the White Rabbit, hoping he will understand without her having to outright say it

She has one person who she trusts and is very close to and physically cannot imagine her life without Alfred

Becomes frustrated when others do not see the world in the way she does

Very black-and-white thinking, the Nurse is a Villain because she separated Alfred from her, she creates this version of her in her head that is different from how she actually acts. The Nurse believes in tough love but she is trying to do what’s best for Alice, wanting her to accept Alfred’s demise

She struggles to empathise with Alfred’s situation even though he loves him, she tries to comfort him with the book because that is what would comfort her

I would need to rewatch the slime tutorial to see if she initiates physical contact with anyone apart from Alfred

You can argue all of this is because of the stress and trauma she is undergoing. But the other characters are all in the same situation. And none of them are doing this, most are actively discouraging it. A lot have other unhealthy coping mechanisms, like the Caterpillar. But Alice sees their situation in a completely different way to everyone else in the bunker. And I am choosing to read this as an autism allegory because projecting onto Alice Spencer is my new full-time job apparently

Alice and Alfred 🎵

Is it cheating to say Turning Out by AJR or Are You Bored Yet by Wallows

(I made art pieces of them both for this ship)

The first one is the complicated feelings of love+growing up and being different than what you thought it would be+ I'm still not a fully developed person yet

The second one is hey what's wrong, are you tired of loving me yet?+ I'd like to always be with you

And it has a lot of lyrics about time passing

Team for asking!
