also howdy stranger lol it's been a hot minute

AUTISTIC ACHILLEAN TRANSMASC STURGES!!!

I don't have too many headcanons for him bc I haven't played the game in like several months and haven't seen Sturges for even long but!!! You are so big brained!!!

I can imagine autism being MUCH more accepted and even sought out when it comes to workers because who gives a shit if Jimmy stims and doesn't look you in the eyes when his special interest is brahmin and he'll make sure yours don't die any time soon. The only issue I can see is Sturges stimming by flipping/throwing his wrench in the air and then oopsie accidentally flings it directly at Prestons face while really focused on a conversation. This definitely isn't me projecting about how I've thrown my phone across the room MANY times on accident

Sturges probably find gunfights a Complete Sensory Nightmare (to the point where he outright refuses to get in the power armor in the museum at the beginning of the game) so count him out of it. He's cool with being a bit of a field medic if necessary - I can't imagine he has much knowledge on actual medicine, but he can carry someone to an actual doctor, you know? Either way he does much better when he can actually control the loud sounds, like hammering a nail. Because of that he probably prefers working alone more.

Don't have much off the top of my head when it comes to trans/achillean hc but I can imagine him being Very Chill About It. As long as you ask respectfully he'll happily tell you about his entire experience with gender/sexuality and even help you figure out yours. The type of guy to look at you for 3min and pull out a name for a sexuality you've never even heard before but FITS YOU better than anything. He's magic.
