Autistic Cassian evidence(from an autistic person):
Non verbal when first brought to Narkina 5
As well as during Ulaf’s death
He the has same wide eyed face I have when I’m somewhere unfamiliar both on Narkina 5 and Aldhani and with Luthen on his ship
Also little Cass also has that face on Kenari and in the square with Clem
Also in Rouge One when they’re breaking in
Bad with social cues but also a little shit with his friends
Example: not realizing why Timm would think Bix was cheating on him with him but also being a little shit to Bix about dating him
Also not realizing Vel was telling him to back off Cinta
Bad with metaphors(not knowing what “already sharing a blanket” meant, “huh” face when Nemik is rambling)
Struggles with changing ideals
Follows instructions closely
Semi verbal after learning about his mom
Covers up bad social skills with sarcasm and again being a little shit
Black and white thinking- Empire bad, rebels good
Determined to finish tasks or finish learning things
For example, learning everything he can about the guards and what happened on 2
And still searching the ship on Kenari
Or eating his food on Aldahni
Being treated as an outcast on Kenari
Prefers animal/droid companionship(K2 and Bee)
Immediate kinship with Nemik(also autistic)
And Skeen(who is not autistic but does have similar interests/past)
Also Jyn(who is autistic cause I say so)
Meltdowns(after K2’s death, yelling at Nemik on the transport, nonverbal episode on Narkina 5, “nobody’s listening!” possibly even shooting Skeen and freaking out on Vel, snapping on Jyn)
Easily collecting found family(need for attachment, possibly attachment issues stemming from being taken from Kenari)
Bad at expressing emapthy
Aka simply just going “Oh” when given someones tragic backstory
Absolutely not thinking about Syril even though he blew up his team(task focused thinking)
Some examples in Rouge One like the whole defying the entire rebellion thing and also talking over Taramyn on Aldhani
Quick decision making/quick judgements
Still lives with his mom(as in, can’t live alone because he needs help or is too attached)
Not being able to do big speeches(making Jyn do the pep talk before the Rouge One mission and making Kino talk to the whole prison on Narkina 5)
Antisocial(does not like when he has to meet new people)
No concept of personal wellbeing/rarely does things for his own benift
Getting the Aldhani money for his mom, not wanting to use it on himself, wanting to get the whole prison free not just himself, not going with everyone at the end for their safety, killing people for the Rebellion to stay secret, not killing Galen for Jyn
Unexaggerated facial expressions(keeps a similar face for most of his appearances)
Lemme know if you have anything else! If you don’t agree dni it’s not that hard
He’s also bi and polyam and in love with Melshi, Jyn and Bohdi <3
