Would you be my muse?

I've started writing a novel and I'm going to be including a handful of minor autistic characters.  The main characters are autistic too, but I don't want to give too much away.

Would anyone like to be an inspiration for a minor character?   If so, let me know a few details below.  Favourite colour, favourite stims, personal mannerisms or quirks or things you enjoy.  How much you talk out loud or in other ways.  

This is purely voluntary and I won't pay you. ;)  

I could make up a few things, but you lot do make me smile and it's my way of offering a thankful tribute.

  • Oh you guys, stop being so self depreciating.  You're all pretty ausome.

    Obviously I'm the main character. XD 

    So it's sort of like the main is bring brought into the autistic world, led by her friend, who introduces her to some other people.  Just like one paragraph on each one. And I'd like those other people to based in real experience.  

    If you'd all rather not be in the limelight, that's understandable too, but don't underestimate how interested you are or my ability to make something magical out of it.

    The one I have in my mind so far is standing barefoot in a stream, carefully placing twigs and stones to adjust the flow of the water to make beautiful patterns.

    That's a brilliant image you conjured up. I feel as if I'm standing there, feeling the slow and quiet travel of the water.
