disclaimer - i am autistic! if u disagree with my hcs or think im reaching or whtever that’s ok but just scroll !

1) sensory issues - his line about not liking the feel of alcohol in his mouth could be due to sensory issues + he’s rarely seen without gloves which could also be to help deal with textures

2) strong sense of justice - very common in autistic people to have strong morals and a strong sense of justice, which can be seen throughout dilucs voicelines and overall story

3) special interest- his bird isn’t really mentioned in his voicelines or story apart from this one line that he sounded quite excited about … but his bird is in 2 idles and featured in a lot of arts with him so i like to think birds could be a special interest for him!

4) stimming - i like to think he stims by adjusting his gloves/chains which is seen in two idles of his

5) averse to socialising - as seen in his voicelines he doesn’t appear to be very interested in conversing + his very short voicelines show he only says what he needs to

@ragnvindrquotes You don't need to put reasons he just is autistic

@ragnvindrquotes Reasons why i hc diluc as autistic: i'm autistic and my autistic senses told me he is one of my people the moment he appeared on screen (Dope thread, thank u)

@ragnvindrquotes Diluc having a special interest on birds is my new favourite hc omg that’s so cute

@ragnvindrquotes I’ll be honest- these types of headcanons? I usually just disagree and move on, but honestly?? This one is actually a pretty good headcanon that doesn’t feel forced nor does it feel completely off… I respect your headcanon ❤️ very valid HC and I thank u for ur good points

@ragnvindrquotes As an autistic person, I can totally see him being autistic <3

@ragnvindrquotes *politely borrows your headcanon* (okay but like this is actually a v cool hc!)

@ragnvindrquotes I am also on the spectrum and as soon as I read the voice line about him not liking alcohol because of the way it feels in his mouth, I just knew he was autistic. This thread dives more into that and I appreciate that a lot!

@ragnvindrquotes legit, this makes heaps of sense and I really like it

@ragnvindrquotes i love this hc so much omg

@ragnvindrquotes i love my autistic wife so much ❤️🥺 he just like me
