it's as though you've reached into my brain and written down everything i believe to be true
Talking to your autistic friends about autistic snape like
#i love the biting the inside of his mouth bc it's so subtle and he can do it all the time#weird finger/hand stuff ALL THE TIME#that's why his hands are in his pockets#also i'll add that i think he does a lot of toe wiggling and rolling bc that's also subtle#he used to do a lot of more obvious stims as a child but between his dad/petunia/other kids/marauders being dicks they just became hidden#just personally i think he has a weird relationship with food as well#like everything has to be JUST SO and he has the same thing whenever possible#fortunately the house elves tend to do everything the same so he knows what to expect for most of his life#when necessary he's observing every single social interaction so he doesn't stand out too much#but he won't put the effort in to do all the niceties. he just doesn't want the attention of standing out#also sensory seeking this bitch sniffs EVERYTHING#EVEN the most potent bitter or sharp potion ingredients. ESPECIALY the most potent bitter or sharp potion ingredients#he hates slimy though. can't abide by slimy fingers#i also like that alan rickman sometimes had him stroking his lips bc i do that all the damn time#and finger/cuticle biting#also lesser known: skin picking maybe??#might just be projecting tho#but if he gets a scab or something he's just entirely unable to leave it the hell alone#I also love the idea that he's so uncoordinated and clumsy but works extra hard as an adult to look a bit more graceful#and also is just terrible at quidditch because he doens't have the balance or spatial awareness for it#pro snape#autistic severus snape#autistic snape#severus snape#this is law
