As always, if u don't like this headcannon ignore it.
He stims, like a lot. If he has overwhelming excitement or like, he's breaking down or smth, he'll do the lil flappy hand things.
Back in middle school, when they first found out Zander was autistic, Luke was tryna be supportive and didn't really do his research so he came in the next day and started talking to Zander about the Autism speaks charity...😭 he never did it again, he feels bad about it to this day but Zander finds it funny asf
Zanders Like Ok, he doesn't like whip out huge pop it's in class or anything like that, though sometimes he hides like a fidget cube or smth in his cardigan so he can use it to help him concentrate in class.
If literally anyone who isn't Luke touches him TOO much, he gets really irritable.
Luke has adjusted and now can easily recognise when Zander is showing signs of a potential meltdown, and usually he'll try with as little touch as possible (usually hovering his hand just a few inches away from his back) and lead him somewhere non crowded and quiet, then he puts like, soundproof headphones on him and something to cover his eyes👍 (ofc everyone's different but I imagine his way of calming down when he's over stimulated is like, loosing some of his senses so he can calm himself down, he'll take th stuff off when he's ready)
He hyperfixates on like: Games, fandoms and space👍
He has explained the fnaf lore to so many different therapists, like they never actually get to listen to his life problems. Just: "Did you know that there's a pizzaria called freddy fazbears pizza place which was founded by Wil-"
Even though he knows the lore of fnaf, he's too scared to play it. One time Luke convinced him to try the VR help wanted game, Luke recorded it and he still laughs at the video.
He's a really picky eater. Examples:
EWWWW^^^^
Yum 😍 ^^
EWWWWW^^^ (he picks off all the peppers)
Scrumptious😍
He's bad at social cues (rlly bad)
Goes on a lot of side tangents
And he cannot sit at peace (he also has restless leg disorder. I hav it too, basically you can't sit still at all, like if ur sitting on a sofa, u hav to bounce ur leg or swing ur feet, or even if ur sitting on ur knees u have to like continuously move around or like move your ankle and that, it's rlly annoying)
He's really bad at cleaning his room, he gets side tracked so easily.
"Alright! I'm gonna clean my room for real this ti- OH MY GOD I FORGOT I HAD THAT-" then he starts like playing around his room for like 2 hours then remembers he was supposed to be cleaning 😭😭
His jotters have like, disgustingly neat handwriting, but the margins are full of lil doodles
