Thank you for adding some much to this post @yikesy
I think Apollo from toa is really autistic-coded, both as Lester and as godly Apollo. That thing that he does where he lies even tho it goes his natural instincts, yeah, that's masking I've decided.
One of his domains is order and structure? Autism.
Has a bunch special interests as domain then has a domain specifically for 'knowledge'? Autism.
God of prophecy? That's practically pattern recognition. Autism.
God of truth? Autisic folks are known to be brutally honest.
Autism.
Gets especially attached to objects and things? Autism. (Cows, instruments, ext)
Talks really formall with a mix of slang? Autism. It does not matter that he is over 4000 years old this is how I speak so autism.
We all know he has a strong sense of justice that he ignored too often as a god.
Forgets things as Lester? ADHD. That's right. He's actually Audhd-coded.
this is their dynamic right
I take every single opportunity to project my sensory issues/neurodivergence on every character with perpetual headphones- Nino included.
Some headcanons about the main 5 and their persona changes under the cut!
Each protag has something that changes when they're in either one of their personas.
The main two's are obvious and fairly cloae to canon but the other three are a little bit different since they pertain a lot to this AU'S headcanons.
- Marinette's biggest is her confidence and decision making that doesnt always come through in her civilian form.
-Adrien's is his carefree attitude and agency that he doesn't have in his everyday life.
The more headcanony ones:
- Alya is always mediating between her older sister, parents, and little siblings. With her older sister and dad butting heads a lot, and the twins being the pranksters they are, Alya's patient and calm front to the situations helps keep everything under control. Constantly emotionally aware and trying to monitor everyone's moods, but doesn't abuse the influence she has in her family. D O E S however manipulate the FUCK out of her enemies when transformed. Makes the trickster part of her miraculous proud.
Also does gentle parent her teammates when there's a dispute. Only Carapace has noticed.
- Chloe in this AU is like Jane Austen's "Emma": constantly helping her dad keep things in order. Has been the one honestly running the hotel business since she was 10, at least in every aspect but on paper. She sees her dad and his bouts of depression, and tries her best to ease his workload at home at least. She's not perfect, but she's trying. As class president, she tries to please everyone and lead with a firm, but fair, hand. In comparison to the busy mayor's daughter who's tried her best to clean up her image and ebb her temper, Queen Bee is a harsh critic. Chloe feels her emotions much more freely when transformed, and is the most willing of her teammates to do the dirty work that needs to get done.
- Nino's grew up entertaining his brother while their mom would work late, taking on a more upbeat attitude longer than he would actually be comfortable with. This behavior moved into school too, where he got into habit of pushing his social battery past what it should while trying to make everyone comfortable. Doesn't mask as much with the class and his main friend group, and always puts his headphones on as a "do not disturb sign" that everyone in class respects. Carapace is the complete opposite. Since there's no need for a social buffer between the heroes and Carapace was the last to join and was welcomed warmly- Nino stays mute/speaking when necessary and has his gear help buffer his senses. Incredibly observant since he's not draining himself, and is the best defense and tank the team could ask for.
okay but real talk, the funniest thing the server ever came up with was "Sam's got weird powers bc of the demon blood or whatever, but Dean is actually for real naturally a little bit psychic and has no idea"
best friends......
No Longer You waltzing animatic, this wasn't supposed to be a serious thing but oh well
he will use every chance he gets to be a drama queen and if he doesnt have one he will create one
Apollo, outside: Sis you should be honored to be hanging out with the coolest person on Olympus! Me! UwU
Apollo, inside: you are so cool Artemis, why would you ever want to be around someone like me...
