Autism Be Damned My Boy Can Work A Cauldron

Currently looking through all of the RA books I can find to verify the direction Crowley faces while at his desk in Castle Araluen it’s so I can be correct as to whether he looks round or up at someone entering his office

One of my favorite responses in my Social Interaction Toolkit is:

"Why do you ask?"

Allistic people tend to ask one question when they actually mean something quite different (this is one of many ways in which allistic people are strange and exotic). So when I don't want to hazard guessing, my default response is to cheerfully respond to ambiguous questions with "Why do you ask?"

Usually if I do it casually, people don't notice I didn't answer the original question, and instead move on to their Actual Question. (Also works if you just prefer to give noncommittal answers.) Very very basic example but:

Person: "Are you busy/what are you doing this weekend?"

You (too tired to guess-and-then-calculate-an-emotional-slash-external-response based on if this is a prelude to a social invitation, an acquaintance asking for a favor, a coworker asking to trade shifts, boss wanting you to work overtime, etc): *vague but friendly smile* Why do you ask?

Person: Well I wanted to know if....

Very useful shortcut/cheatcode

the aro urge to call ppl "my love" or "my beloved" or "the love of my life" but in a very uniquely aro way

The amount of people who says "I'm not gay, but..." or "No homo" is proof enough that society needs to know the difference between sexual attraction, romantic attraction, aesthetic attraction and a simple compliment.

due to budget cuts preschool will no longer teach about the color green

Will, walking into Gilan’s office: Alright, what’s this about—

Gilan: *slams door shut from behind*

Will, spinning around, saxe in hand: Gilan!?

Gilan: It’s time, Will

Will: Time for what? What’s going on?

*Gilan, appearing from the shadows, rope in one hand and scissors in the other*

Will: gILAN—

Gilan: It’ll be over soon

Will: Gilan nO—

*everything goes dark*

“we should breed and ask our offspring what they think” has quickly become my favorite way to respond to someone disagreeing with me
