Today’s Autistic character of the day is:

Robotic Tendencies

People readily assume the Virgo/Gemini native has a cold heart. It’s true, they are objective thinkers- and objective feelers. Ruled by Mercury, ruled by the intellect, they use their mind to rationalize all their sentimental troubles ("it doesn’t make sense!”), but that doesn’t mean they don’t have any emotional substance. They try to keep emotions under control to avoid unexpected/uncomfortable situations. Cool and collected, never losing composure, there’s a certain aloofness about them, though when solicited, they can be very serviceable and resourceful, ready to help and make themselves useful. Usually workaholics (as with all Virgo Suns), they have high standards when it comes to work (or say, life in general). Perfectionists by nature, they’re painfully direct when criticizing something, in the name of “improving" or “working constructively” on it. They mean no harm. Without even trying, they can spot a mistake from miles away. Nothing gets past their observant eyes and analytical mind. Because they exercise it so much, through books and articles and classes, they are always eager to learn something new. Their mind never stops, and they don’t want it to stop: there’s too many possibilities to explore, so many problems to solve! This also means they worry too much and have a hard time relaxing, so they’re at risk for extreme anxiety and nervousness. Esp. because they see error before they see merit, and have a predominantly negative-pessimistic nature. Despite this, and despite being typically cynical, the Gemini Moon gives them the gift to embrace new ideas instead of rejecting them immediately, as they’re not as closed-minded as it might seem. They’re flexible and adaptable, available to re-write the plan whenever the situation calls for it. In love, they need mental stimulation the most. For them, a relationship is more about companionship than anything else- they need someone to share their ideas with.
