I am. moderately afraid that I'm going to get hate on this but. here we go.

Barry is fucking perfect autism representation. I don't know if there's anything confirming that he is autistic but like. Oh my gosh.

He doesn't feel like certain characters where it's just stereotypes and that's the whole character. There's not a single stereotype about him. He doesn't scream "autism" just because he's not that type of character. He's not like extremely smart, or stupid-- he's intelligent, but he's not like. that kind of trope certain shows do where people with autism are just really smart. The way he emotes is perfect. I wish I had my specific examples but like... man.

It's so good. It makes me so happy. It also hurts me because Kris treats him poorly and tries to get him to be different because of his autistic traits. It's just. man...

like that one scene where they're talking about the cargo-- lemme just put in the dialogue and insert images

Kris: This is it. Do you know what this means?

Barry: Yeah. You've told me.

Kris: then why do you still seem not to get it? We did this together, for once you should be proud-- I'm letting you be proud!

Barry: I'm... proud.

[Kris ruffles Barry's hair]

Kris is imposing what she wants Barry to feel on him. She's letting him be proud. She doesn't get why he "doesn't understand". Barry seems to just want to get the conversation over with/he doesn't know why he doesn't understand either (why he doesn't feel the things Kris wants him to feel-- what he "should" feel. Why he doesn't feel the "normal" things). The way he forces himself to say that he's proud is just... perfect voice acting. They got such a perfect voice actor for Barry. But back to this scene-- she ruffles his hair, something that to her means something good, but Barry CLEARLY doesn't like it. He tenses and rubs his head afterwards. She's trying to make him what she wants. Make him feel what she wants him to feel and praise him the way she thinks praise should be received. The only way she considers Barry being different both feelings wise and how he wants praise is her wanting to change those things to what she wants.

there was also this one scene, the scene where Kris and Barry are interacting for the last time, and the shot it relatively simple. just a shot of his face. Zoomed in. In a show like scavengers reign that has so many interesting shots that are so clearly intentional you know that has to be intentional. And what I loved about it is that sometimes autistic people have difficulty emoting or when they do emote it's subtle. And that scene picks on the subtle changes in his expression while he's talking to really show how he's feeling in the moment. That's so cool. Idk how to make a gif and i don't have a link to a video of it but it's in the beginning of episode 12 if anyone wants to see what I'm talking about :)

anyways,, yeah. I hope that this is taken well? I have other thoughts on him as well but this was just something that was right at the front of my mind after finishing

I am very fond of the idea of Barry being raised by the survivors. Not necessarily even in a family way. In a "it takes a village" way. There's a sixteen year old with issues on this planet so they're gonna help him. I'm normal.

Scavengers Reign weird little creatures appreciation, episode 12 edition, including:

babyfaced psychic buttnewt (yes, even him. just this time, for this moment. this frame. so cute while sleeping),

two old friends: the baby flying moustache (3D edition) and little tripod buddy again (very shy but willing to make friends),

the triangle-faced leggyboyband, the dragonflybird,

and lastly, LITTLE HOMEGROWN LEVI BUDDIES

#scavengers reign #op #in this rewatch I finally connected that the little levi on the shuttle came from the flower Barry brought on board #which they show a brief shot of with it wilted and a casing in the roots like we just saw demonstrated on Vesta #there are SO many details in this show you guys im going insane

i kind of love barry. autistic king

#scavengers reign #scavengers reign spoilers #(in the tags)#okay so sam didn't die but the following events were Much more interesting #the parasite creating compulsions? so cool #i would have loved to see an example done with a local fauna #but i can imagine it works similarly. compelled to build a nest etc etc #also terrence's death was so brutal but i Loved the visuals and sound for the quick snapping and twisting of the plant #carnivorous plant!! yayy!!!#very cool death #but yeah barry. i enjoy him #azi's my favourite surviving 'main' character at this time and i like seeing her and barry interact.#azi's like. trying to be softer especially contrasted with kris who is kind of similar to her. in a way that makes her want to be #Less like that and lean into her softer side. very good #azi's humming is also my favourite thing ever soured as it is by levi's death (right after they learned to sing)

A family isn't always you, your survivalist mom and your supportive dad. Sometimes a family is you, your three moms, your robot/plant sibling and your trash uncle.

Though I previously said I like autistic characters with an edge to them, I do want to clarify that I don't want that to be the primary qualifier for positive autistic rep.

Like, Barry from Scavengers Reign. Kind of a loser, but still deserving of life, respect, and autonomy. Autistic people and characters do not need to be cool in order to be worthy.

If there's a season 2 I'd like to see more of him.

finally went into Scavenger's Reign mostly blind. I got heavy vibes in episode seven but I project myself into others a lot so I wasnt 100%. first 10 seconds of episode eight with the assembly sequence I knew. at the finger cracks I knew knew and said out loud to my partner "oh cool, he's an autistic character!"

scavengers reign is incredible obviously but I have yet to see someone mention how they put in barry keoghan as a character for no reason

#scavengers reign #barry keoghan #I'm not complaining he rules #but it's funny as hell I was waiting for him to have an accent #apparently the creators are also denying this…what the hell haha #like why lie about it #it’s so obviously him

I think kris and kamen should be locked in a room together and left to die together. slowly.

#we all know im a professed kamen hater. but i cannot fucking stand kris either #like kamen in his avoidence too is TEARING THE SHIP APART.#bitch wont face his own bullshit out of sheer cowardice and is actively killing any of the remaining crew in the process.#and kris. the way she treats barry... hmm.. rock to the skull i think. at maximum velocity. repeatedly.#these two mfs RUINING shit for everyone. EVERYONE.#scavengers reign
