pretty pretty please tell me about jinx and catra having autism <3
OK!!!! so we all know jinx shows clear signs of ASD in arcane such as sensory seeking (listening to loud music, fascinated by explosions, surrounded by bright colours), taking sayings literally (when Chuck said sevika did a number on someone and she asked which number), obsessing over topics/special interests (science/engineering), ECT so shes real obvious however Catra having autism isnt
Recently psychologists are favouring seeing autism as a wheel like this where different people have varying levels of each symptoms. If you look at Catras behavior throughout the show, what shes most likely doing is a whole lot of masking as a protective measure. Still, we see high anxiety and black and white thinking which I honestly think is her bipolar disorder symptoms but because I like to project
Heres what I reckon catras looks like. Shes got sensory issues real bad and she leans towards beige foods. People usually take her tone as rude even if she thinks shes talking casually, which just makes her not want to talk to any new people which makes her anxiety worse
Heres jinxs. Like I said with Catra, i do think some of the symptoms are her BPD and not the autism but if the test asks imma answer idk (the abnormal speech thing should be switched for them not sure what happened there anyways)
But yeah this is all headcanon I just like to think they're the autism twins doing autism deeds yknow
Ok, so two questions about the chaos gremlins:
1 can they be left alone or will there be collateral damage?
2 what would they think about the other falling in love/ having a lover?
OK NUMBER 1
It depends on when. When they were little, collateral damage wasnt even a question like if u blink theyve eaten the furniture and cornered a cockroach into selling out its mob boss husband but it would be an accident and they would be able to pout their way out of trouble, season 4 catra could definitely be persuaded into wreaking havoc on etheria (she'd probably suggest it) as long as theres no way vi could find out, season 5 and beyond catra could be persuaded into standing on the sidelines while jinx does what jinx wants to as long as neither vi or adora have any way of finding out.
So in short
Baby twins: 100%
Teenage twins: 55%
Adult twins: 38%
They r maturing 🎉🎉🎉
Question 2 is a layered question bc
Im not exactly sure why I did this but it adds another layer of angst and it's funny but lemme explain
Catra doesnt necessarily HATE lux it's just that she doesnt trust her at all like. Jinx and lux got together soo quickly and jinx is so of the rails that she cant really trust anyone that would want to date her which sounds mean and it is but she just doesnt qant her crazy sister near another crazy person yknow? Her hate is out of love yeah
And lux doesnt like her because she keeps side-eying her and making snide remarks. So lux does it back
BUT good news is jinx and adora sort of get along. Jinx thinks it's funny when adora and vi fight and she knows that adora worships the ground catra walks on and adora knows jinx would burn everything to make catra feel better so yknow common uuhh common goals
Although adora doesnt like it when jinx visits etheria just bc something always gets blown up and she didnt a appreciate that jinxs first reaction to finding out about adora was to kidnap her and give her the shovel talk in her evil lair
Idk how I forgot to explain adora and vi. Uh they're too similar and they piss eachother off. No, they will never get along. No, they will never agree to disagree on anything.
And Jinx and Caitlyn are self-explanatory BUT let's get this straight vi baught adora a night light when she learnt she was scared of the dark for when she stayed over. Caitlyn tucks jinx in at night and kisses her on the head. And lux and catra would never let anything bad happen to one another bc Family 👍
