Todd is definitely the type of boyfriend to sit with you and quietly read while you do homework or one of your hobbies just bc he wants to spend time with you
pitts and meeks were the only ones out of the group who ever had their emotional needs met by their parents i will not be elaborating

Has a hyperfixation on theatre.
If you change your tone even slightly, you can see him start to get upset.
It looks as if he's got great coping mechanisms, but he's actually really good at masking.
Gets really burnt out on a night and so everyone knows not to disturb him, especially after dps meetings.
Will cuddle with Todd when he's burnt out.
Has a wall of sticky notes to remind him to do everything.
Needs routine otherwise he gets quite anxious, so the poets all know to tell him exactly what's happening in the day and where they will all be at certain times.
Never remembers what's for dinner, no matter how many times he's told.
Gets really loud when he's excited, especially in Keating's classes. (Same with Charlie)
He'll randomly shout a line from a poem or a play relating to what you just said.
Doesn't go non verbal very often but it has happened.
He learnt sign language for when Todd goes non verbal because of his autism.
Cameron actually had healthy coping mechanisms for some of his autism symptoms, so he helps Neil study because he knows how to break the work down so it's not overwhelming.
They all have a collection of fidget toys. (Charlie and Todd have the biggest collections, and they've made it a competition as to who has the better collection.
They all get extra time, so in exams they're all sat in the same room which is actually really helpful because it means they can give each other little thumbs up and smiles. (Yes my friends do this for me, it's very nice to know someone is checking up on you)
Thank you for reading!
