Brun's backstory
awgiedawgie:
I have also wondered if she may have lost her family, and has retreated inside herself. When Clinton asked her after the fire if she had family, she simply answered “No.” So that may have meant “Not close enough to stay with,” or it may have actually meant “No.” I know someone who lost just one parent when she was a teenager, and she was a mess for years.

Jeph doesn't to my knowledge explicitly dictate backstory outside of the comic itself. A lot of people have projected AS, either their own or it in general, onto Brun. I can see how it might be possible.
TheEvilDog:
Does Brun have a backstory? Yes.
Has it been revealed yet? Nope.
Is she somewhere on the autism spectrum? Possibly, but then again nothing has been 100% confirmed or denied and thus would only be speculation at this stage.
Is it cold in here?:
Which is a thing we do.
I have nothing to add to what's above except that there are many reasons to be socially clueless that aren't ASD and many ASD people do a lot better than Brun.
Her backstory almost certainly includes not having an AnthroPC with a social protocol database. Momo may have some more free time now that Marigold is launched. I don't know how they might meet but I can imagine Momo taking on Brun as a project.
TheEvilDog:
That's even if Momo and Brun were compatible.
Aren't AnthroPC-Human partnerships based on psychological compatibility, hence why Hanners was horrified to hear how Marten was partnered with Pintsize?
I mean, sure, AI by their very definition are meant to grow and expand beyond their initial friendship but at the same time, Momo is her own person now, does she really need to be partnered with someone just because she was more savvy towards social interaction than Marigold?
