Twilight Out Of Focus As A Relatable Love Story As A Person On The Autism Spectrum:

For most of my life love has been a confusing and complicated thing. I got crushes and found myself in situationships where I wasn't quite dating guys but we weren't just friends either. I never really understood why my first reaction to romance when it involves myself is to see it as something odd. Most of my friends wonder why I watch romance anime as someone that is hyper romantic without a boyfriend. And I've always struggled to come up with a proper answer for that question but I still continued to watch them anyways. I can't say that I've ever seen one that works the same way that Twilight Out Of Focus does though. The way that they told the story through the three different relationships where just when I thought that one couldn't be better than the other I managed to get surprised by the next pairing and managed to fall in love with them even more. I thought that I couldn't love a pairing more than Jin and Ichikawa, but Rei and Shion caught me by complete surprise and I might be in the minority by saying that but I have a reason and it's a pretty big one. Relatability.

To me, I saw a lot of myself in love while watching Rei fall in love with Shion and I'm going to hit you with an HC that changed everything for me, you ready for it? Rei is autistic. This is coming from someone that's also on the autism spectrum with a lot of unique special interests that often take over my life and leave most of my friends in an array of confusion but overtime gradual acceptance. I've been really, really luck in the online friend department with finding my fair share of Jin's that encourage me and push me forward to keep growing on my own but I've been really unlucky in terms of romance because a lot of the time people wind up bored of me. They realize that I'm really predictable, that I can sit you down and draw a ven diagram with a connection of each English VA with each One Piece character that I love or that I speak coherently in movie quotes. They get tired of the novelty and wind up calling things off with me overtime and that was the first time that it really hit me in the gut of how much I saw myself in Rei. Due to how much he throws himself into working on his movies, people get easily bored and tired of his antics and leave him for other people. The fact that he mutters things to himself is another trait that can often be found with people that are autistic, I definitely have minimal brain to mouth filter where I wind up sometimes just saying stuff with no knowledge of whether or not it's hurtful or not something that people would usually say. When I have feelings for someone I tend to tease them very similar to how Rei does with Shion where I give them grief over little things.

Last week I was just sitting there and it hit me of how much I related to Rei and how much I saw my own traits in him. So I wanted to throw my own hat into the ring of the Rei defense squad with the way that I looked at his character. As someone that's been diagnosed for a few years I'm confident in why I feel this way but I don't think I've ever related to a love interest more than Rei just with my own social awkwardness. I think that it might be one of the best portrayals of loving someone while being autistic and while I might not have relationship experience in the traditional sense this love story brought me a lot of relatability and made me look at myself and my experience with romance in a wholly different way. I've always assumed that most of my relationship shortcomings wound up being my fault because I talk too much. I get too into my interests and not everyone can understand that but I think that I need to just find the right person that gets me.

I wasn't expecting for me to find relatability in this character but a lot of Rei's "bad" traits are traits that I also share as someone that's on the autism spectrum. I've been seeing a lot of people bad mouthing Rei for being "mean" but to me, that's just something that I've experienced being autistic. Being 'self-centered' or a 'jerk' is something that I've been called my entire life but that doesn't mean that's the whole of who I am and it's not the whole of who Rei is as a character. Oftentimes people on the autism spectrum just seem abrasive if you're not in their inner circle of friends. It's been my experience that once I found my people it was easier to open up and we can see Rei opening up to Shion where before it was just Jin and that was it. And I felt myself crying multiple times throughout their story arc and I'm so grateful to see the way that I love represented.

Idk why I’m totally obsessing over them right now but thinking about a sickfic where no one has seen Rei for two days, he’s been skipping class which isn’t unusual, but he hasn’t been at lunch or walking with Shion to/ from class… on top of that, he hasn’t answer Shion’s texts. Shion is worried his boyfriend is going to dump him. He winds up at Rei’s dorm, much to his roommates shoving, and after knocking several times, Rei finally opens the door. The older is a mess, his hair is chaotic, sticking up in several places and matted to his face, he’s pale and sweaty, his normal hoodie discarded on the floor behind him along with several other pieces of clothes and his book bag, hats and headphones.

“Sh-Shion?”

The older teenager chokes, breaking out in a coughing fit before leaning heavily against the doorframe, tipping forward slightly. Shion yelped, reaching towards Rei as the older stumbled, grasping for the older boy’s shoulder as his boyfriend mumbled something in his hair, and the younger snaked his arm around Rei’s waist, pulling his up as best he could and away from the door. Once back inside the door, Shion blinked slowly, his eyes adjusting to the dark room briefly before dragging the older towards the bed, his grip tight as he tried to ease him down gently. Rei was bigger than him, heavier, taller, broader… that made it harder for Shion to be gentle, so odds were, he pretty much shoved the older boy down more than gracefully set him down… how embarrassing….

Rei coughed roughly, curling in on himself, bringing his knees to his chest as Shion pressed a hand against his shoulder. He grimaced at the amount of sweat plastered to his boyfriend’s shirt, nevermind the amount covering his hand… Rei definitely had a fever, and his cough sounded horrible.

“How long have you been sick, Rei?” Shion cooed, pushing several sweaty strands of white hair away from his boyfriend’s face as the older blinked slowly. The older groaned, moving his head until his forehead pressed again the younger’s thigh, “Sh-Shi-on?”

“Hm?”

…

Maybe I’ll add more or write a fic if I find Motivation. I seriously need to get back into writing…

Shion, sweetie, I know he’s cute but you do NOT want to fall into the trap! We’ve all been there. We’ve all fallen into the trap. He ain’t worth it. He’s a walking yellow flag. Everyone at the school thinks you can do better!

Focus on yourself! Focus on your friends! You’re young! You’ll get your Prince Charming boyfriend but that isn’t when you’re a teenager at an all-boys high school!
