Love how Maomao isnt the 'spawned out of the ether' kind of autistic you often see in media. She is very clearly the daughter of two autistic (& otherwise neurodivergent) people. As well as having, at the very least, an autistic grand uncle.

Like thats some real autistic rep right there. Got a family history of autism, accociated trauma and all. I love it.
