I wanna take a moment to appreciate Kim’s way of caring.
I know it seems a bit cold of him to tell Harry to focus on work and get his personal affairs in order, but he mentions that focusing on work helps him when he’s feeling down or anxious. This is classic autistic empathy. He doesn’t know what’s going to work for you, but he knows what works for him, so he offers that.
He doesn’t judge you too harshly for being an addict and even sympathizes that the hangover you’re nursing won’t help with the corpse smell. He doesn’t tell you to suck it up here, he doesn’t rub it in your face that it’s your fault the body smells like it does. It is what it is and what is done has been done.
He knows how to spot and deal with a panic attack. He uses grounding techniques when you spiral, giving you water and touching you gently.
I truly believe Kim is a high empathy autistic and that might be a factor into his ptsd surrounding children. He doesn’t know how to show this empathy and has probably taught himself to repress it for his own safety. This makes him seem a lot colder than he actually is. But when he slips up, like during the tribunal, god does it show.
