Did anyone else ever watch the TV show "Alphas"? My family watched it while it aired, (over ten years ago) and I haven't seen it since. I think it only had one season, maybe two. It was a drama about people w superpowers. Not the most original in many ways, but I remember finding it very compelling. I think it was on SyFy? Not sure lol.
There was one character who canonically had autism, I think his name was Gary? And he was your standard TV show white autistic boy, whose superpower was tech-related. But I remember liking how respectfully he was treated by both the narrative and the other characters, even when his support needs were inconvenient for them.
I also remember feeling like none of the "Alphas" were nuerotypical, and their powers were kind of used to illustrate that. My favorite was a young Indian-American girl named Rachel, whose abilities were heightened senses. But they emphasized how that functioned as a disability for her, because she couldn't interact with the world the same way as everyone else, because she was hypersensitive.
Her love interest was this boring angsty white man, but he was always really considerate about accommodating her. When they first met, he thought she didn't like him bc he noticed she kept a distance between them, but, when he learned it was because the smell of his soap/body spray was overwhelming to her, he bought a bunch of mild/ unscented products, and asked her to choose which was most tolerable to her. (They were superhero coworkers, so they were around each other a lot.)
When they admitted their feelings, she confessed being distressed about the possibility that they might never be able to be very physically intimate, due to how her senses can become overwhelmed. And he's like, "i understand and that's cool with me, i just want to date you bc i like you!"
Of course it would've also been fine if he was like, "a physical relationship is important to me, so this isn't what I'm looking for." But the way they did it was kind of groundbreaking to me? Like, to see someone's debilitating sensory issues portrayed as not a problem or a joke, but a personal boundary to be respected?
Anyway, I don't remember the plot at ALL, but I do remember being touched by the compassion with which the characters were treated

a riddle priest; how do you make a portal to hell.......
Tumblr media
my silly thought process behind this below
this is probably my fav quote from the entire game and i always imagined its supposed to represent the 3 second death victims vessels that we know of
1st one is miriam whose decaying body was 'waiting' to be used during the profane sabbath by gary, the one whos 'already walked thru it'
2nd one being tiffany, she did the ritual on herself in the basement which is described as the 'lowest depths' and theres the huge segment of the apartments involving trying to get there in complete darkness; also she went to the unseen world which is also an evil dark void dimension aka 'where nobody could find her' (plus u cant use a portal to hell that u cant even reach, and she was a rejected one)
and finally the 3rd one is amy, the perfect vessel garys been looking for; who thru her work at the clinic, getting close to him, being constantly manipulated, and attending the get-together party he invited her to, walked right into his grabby evil demon hands. my god i hate him so much
