See my comment to the previous, but in a nutshell: (1) the character has some serious issues, which are used for punch lines in canon, but this is going to take them a little more seriously, at least for a bit; (2) it doesn't actually map to autism, as noted in the header (maybe I'll take a stab at that someday, but I'd do the actual research for it first); and (3) any thoughts you have on how to juggle all this respectfully would be very much welcomed.
