For @ineffableplanet
Farah Black's autistic-coding explained!
She has unusual speech patterns that can also be attributed to her anxiety; she talks very fast and often talks to herself
She's very knowledgeable about law, the police force and various weapons, often using this knowledge to correct people or give them advice (like telling Dirk about a system he can use in his detective agency, and telling Tina she's using the wrong type of holster) or figure out that someone's lying (like soul-swapped Agent Weedle not knowing how to be a convincing policeman)
She's generally more quiet and serious than most of the other characters, and one of the only times she shows a substantial amount of enthusiasm is at the music festival when everyone's under Suzie's spell
She's always very focused on whatever task she has to do and doesn't seem to get distracted at all
She doesn't notice that Todd has a crush on her in season 1 and just seems confused when he hints at it ("my clothes look good on you." "okay ... thanks?")
Small detail, but in season 2 episode 2 she infodumps to Sherriff Hobbs while sorting and lining up the pens on his desk
Part of her character arc through seasons 1 and 2 is about embracing her weirdness (at first she was very insistent that she's a perfectly normal person, but slowly comes to realise that she has found her place among people who are just as weird as she is and she doesn't have to worry about being normal any more)

i will forever view dirk as autistic because of his controlling nature and his desire to be in charge+ his other behavior
he is quite literally one of the first noncanon autistic characters that actually has the BAD autistic traits
like the traits that arent commonly shown in media and i think its AWESOME because like i said autistic traits like that are VERY rarely shown in media, if theyre shown at all its almost always in a character thats a horrible person, because people see these traits as "bad", but in reality these traits are just hard to understand. without being autistic yourself it is hard to understand why there's a need for control or why there's a need to keep things inline
but its such a common trait amongst autistic people that it's just... idk
he has so many other autistic traits too
he tends to fall into the cliche "autistic robot" which is something he was initially parodying when he made the auto responder. similar to this, his speech is often very monotonous, and he only ever really expresses emotional inflections when he raps.
he also struggles to process emotions and he tends to feel things MUCH more strongly than most, and with this his slightly emotionally disconnected attitude is how he copes with his strong emotions.
he also just infodumps without even realizing it.
he's WAY more creative than most give him credit for, its most obvious in his art/rap lyrics but also in the way he can just make up metaphors on the spot, and these metaphors only ever really make sense to him.
before he makes "splinters" like his AR, he talks to himself often, like super often, as in, full conversations out loud with himself. this likely has to do with how lonely he was, but it is still a common trait with autistic people.
he doesnt really have "stims" he tends to just play with his hands/hair.
robotics is 100% a special interest. same with human history (but not just the apocalypse, hes studied way older things.)
he also experiences really intense hyperfocus, and can and WILL go for hours and sometimes days without eating or sleeping when he starts to work on things.
in conclusion: dirk strider is an autistic boy

AuDHD traits Dirk Gently Displays - S1E4: Watkin
Hello friends!! It's been a WHILE but I'm back with this series - You may follow the google docs file I'm writing everything down in, also! If you haven't yet, links to the first three episodes:
S1E1 - Horizons / S1E2 - Lost and Found / S1E3 - Rogue Wall Enthusiasts
Click read more to read the analysis of the fourth episode! Tagging: @clockworkcheetah @urlocallesbiab @generalized-incompetence @amber-angel @goatygoat @frenchfriedgiraffe
 > When Todd catches up with him and Farah, he schools his expressions from excited to have seen him to bored/uninterested, both to show that he isn’t THAT excited he’s there - he seems to think having a bigger reaction to things he likes may cause unwanted reactions from those around him, so he constantly tones himself down
> When they get to the powerhouse, he’s SOOO excited about climbing the fence - I headcanon Dirk as a mix of sensory avoidant and sensory seeking, and his impulsivity is also very relatable
> “Push my bum!! Make me go up!!!” - I might die of second hand embarrassment everytime I watch this scene, but it’s so relatable! I, too, say things without noticing it might have double meaning and it doesn’t dawn on me until hours or years later
> When he isn’t able to climb up and then sees Farah just. Break the locks. It’s SO funny how he hadn’t even considered trying the more obvious steps first before just throwing himself onto the chain link fence, I love him!! Yes impulsive with no common sense king!!!
> As soon as they’re in he just grabs the map from Todd’s hand without even glancing at him - impulsivity but also hyperfocus on the task overriding the conscious effort to show courtesy by asking for things before taking them
> After he falls inside the maze, he tells Todd “Which was unsafe to do unsupervised, now that I think about it” - hard time thinking things through before doing it because, again, the hyperfocus ends up overriding common sense
> “Where are we?” / “Underground!” - WELL YES. Literal thinking icon
> Todd calls out to him, “Hey! Don’t wander off!” - elopping, we tend to wander off without noticing or letting others know, or stay behind because we stopped to look at something, often also involves not noticing danger
> “I think the message is… you’re going to die” - no filter, absolutely first thing that comes to mind is already halfway out his mouth, ADHD ambassador
> “You can’t just walk in blindly? You’re saying that to ME?” - Same trait as before, elopping all the way
> Todd goes, “When shit hits the fan, you fall apart!” - EXTREMELY common for us to not see the consequences or effects coming up until we have to deal with it, especially in situations we’ve never been through before, which is a constant
> *smiling * “...I hope you’re not smiling” DEEP frown - my beautiful son who has cartoonish expressions and can’t hide his emotions very well, we are one and the same
> In the strip down scene we see he wears a white undershirt, which could be providing deep pressure which is great for sensory seeking autistic people!! Also goes in hand with me headcanoning him as trans, double up tight shirt as a binder AND sensory stim
>  “Hope you’re not claustrophobic” / “No, I don’t even like coffee” - two things: he has audio processing issues and misunderstood what was said, AND he responded based on what he understood even if it didn’t make sense for the context of the situation at hand
