as someone on the spectrum, i was not expecting this kind of representation in a rofan (at least, I see it as rep even if nothing is explicitly stated). it was really important that she said it was how he was born and an not illness to be cured, so understanding and accommodation should be the focus (more or less). it’s also important that she’s making sure his mother learns how to care for and support him once she leaves. the sudden brilliance at painting was a little extra, but they had to establish a lot very quickly, and the heavy fixation on something new that he really enjoyed checks. again, i’m just giving my two cents as someone on the spectrum. i truly hope this plot line ends happily
