--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 12 Feb 2019, 15:54 ---Good point, Tova, about the number of criticisms of Renee that came from her protecting Brun. I can think of only one exception, which was the incident with Elliott that was arguably sexual harassment.
--- End quote ---
That's a good example that I'd forgotten about. I'd agree with that assessment (minus the word 'arguably'), albeit not in the worst category of sexual harassment.
In her defense, I will point out that she was quick to acknowledge that what she'd done was wrong once it was pointed out to her, which doesn't strike me as arseholish behaviour. However, her failure to recognise it as such in the moment is certainly a character flaw.
I also agree that we have no direct evidence that Brun is neuroatypical, but I would argue that much of our discussion hinges on observed behaviour, not on whether she is actually neurotypical or otherwise.
Oenone:
I still think there’s a lot of room for Renee to be aneurotypical as well — she really vibes to me as someone with adhd
Is it cold in here?:
If Brun is neurodivergent it will be yet another success of Jeph's at being inclusive of someone different from average.

So Brun's totally gonna move in with another character, right? Maybe Clinton's moving out of the dorms?
Mr Intrepid:
Or Elliot?
