Omg, a real ask from a real person!!! (unless the bots have gotten outa control)

Hmmmm, well I guess the most hot take for Basil that I could give is that I think he has BPD. None of my headcanons are very strict, as I like to play around with different ones for different AUs and stuff like that, but when it comes to analyzing cannon Basil at least, I think it really fits him. I first thought about this while I was playing the game for the first time. I don't tend to come up with head cannons until after I am done playing a game, but this aspect of Basil just made since to me especially once the final day came about.

I'm no professional of course and I don't have it myself, but I have seen people who do have it relate to him. And from what I can see, much of the diagnostic criteria seems to apply to him, and the points that don't immediately apply to him certainly could, we just don't see enough of him to say for sure or not.

The only reason this is a hot take really is because lots of people seem very hesitant to discuss mental health stuff for fictional characters. I think part of this is because many people think that only people who are diagnosed with a certain thing should have an opinion on it when it comes to these types of headcanons, and anyone else chiming in would be disrespectful. I think this is stupid personally. The human brain is an infinitely complicated thing and as a result, everything around trying to categorize and explain it, such as mental illness and neuro-divergence categories, will always be vague and everchanging, so no two people will be able to truly 100% relate to one another even if they have the same diagnosis. So for instance, someone saying that you should not say that Sunny is autistic because some autistic people can't relate to him is silly, because not every person with autism is the same, and it kinda implies that anyone else that does relate to Sunny would be invalid.
