…How the hell did I miss that Zoey is coded autistic? I just had her pegged as “the creative one”, never mind the 700 2-second videos of turtles, or her very specific insecurities!
That actually makes me wonder if one or a few of the script writers have some autistic tendencies. I read something similar happened with the author of The Murderbot Diaries.
But yeah, given how Zoey seems to have more tells, I suspect she got that treatment more intentionally

Someone once said that they all have autistic tendencies, but Zoey’s character/writing really leans into it.
There’s also how every time they all say something, she’s the one who says something different.

I think you could interpret some of her characteristics as hyperfocusing on very specific interests.
Oh, for sure. For some reason, I keep thinking that’s just a common thing for some people to do :D
