I’m OBSESSED with how GameFreak accidentally made the most autistic character ever with Red when they were just trying to make him represent as broad a player base of the original games as possible. He’s canonically semi-verbal, and the number of times he actually speaks can be counted on one hand. He’s absurdly skilled at one topic he has an interest in, being a prodigy outranking almost everyone at fourteen. He immediately ran away from what was essentially a public facing job relating to it and hid away from people completely for several years to the point his own mother had no clue how he was. He rarely emotes and only people close to him seem to understand how he’s feeling. He’s almost always depicted as fiddling with the brim of his hat compulsively. He is seen as cool and badass BECAUSE of these traits. Fucking excellent. I love it. Best character ever. GameFreak should bring him back in every game. 

It's fun being queer and weird and unconventional until you remember you live in a society

“nobody wants to work anymore” yeah because everyone wants to kill themselves
