@Mousa: I don't think so. Twilight doesn't seem like she has any sort of disorder to me. Once she decided she actually wanted friends she became very socially competent.

Pagetopper: This thing because I've still never watched it:

Oh, that's why I never watched it, because it's Led Zeppelin and I hate Led Zeppelin.

I've known enough people with that condition to safely say that even as neurotic as she is, Twilight is still far too well adjusted to have Asperger's.

May I ask, what are the symptoms?

Basically being highly focused on certain areas of interest to the degree that your ability to socialize normally suffers. As noted, I think Twilight is too socially competent to fall into that category. She was isolated because she didn't see the point in having friends, not because she sucked at interaction.

That's what people said about me and then I saw professionals. teachers didn't see it, counselors didn't see it, nobody ever saw it.

Twilight with Asperger's? Hmm... No, I don't see it. She doesn't have any of the quirks that are associated with it, at least to any significant degree. She especially doesn't have any of the social problems that Asperger's has, bar perhaps a unwillingness to make new friends. (and even that is debatable, both if that is the case for Twilight, or if it is a Asperger symptom).

@Mousa: Maybe you really don't have it then? Doctors can misdiagnose people, it happens all the time.

bluh, I say, bluh.

@JT on the last page: My brother has OCD, based on my experiences I don't think Twilight matches that very well either.

I do, I was just lucky, and unlucky, but basically no one saw it because it was never on the table or something. It's all there and I don't think a therapist, a psychiatrist, the Doctor that did the testing, and my own mother can all be simultaneously incorrect.

Buddy cop show?

I remember a while ago we had this topic, and a lot of people suggested Big Mac and Spike in Baltimare or some other location. Someone even drew fanart.

Thanks crow.

Having skimmed through those notes, I doubt Twi has Aspergers. Yes, she was reclusive, but that was only because she saw social interaction as time wasting. Even back then, she was still quite socially competent. But, I'm no expert.

Random: The t-shirt I ordered from We Love Fine finally came in today. And there was also a random giant Rainbow Dash cloth bag in the box with it. I have no idea why that was in there.

@JT I think they include those in orders for free or something.
