The rentboy in this story has non-verbal autistic twin siblings. His Hero in the story is obvioulsy autistic as well, but verbal. The thing is, nobody is diagnosed. The Hero in the story is way too aware of all his "symptoms" for someone who isn't even aware of his diagnosis. He goes on and on about how, when I'm nervous, this happens. When I'm in a noisey croud, this happens. My gross motor skills are effected by this, this, and this- like his reading from a list, even though he doesn't know what's "wrong" with him. I'm pro neuro-diversity, so I wanted to love a love story about these two, but the internal thoughts about symptoms got in the way of the story.
