#i think about this all the time as one of cordelias most surprisingly vulnerable moments#the way she rolls her eyes at herself for being afraid and not being able to stand and fight like buffy does#or like the scoobies often do#really illuminating moment for her character tbh#especially because the show takes great pains to set her up as being spoiled and shallow#when in moments like these it becomes clear that those personality traits are defenses#to not need to face her vulnerability as a teenager with no fighting skills living on the hellmouth#and she clearly sees this as a personal failure and not a structural one#but buffy knows its not#she knows that there are so many kids like her in sunnydale without the training and gifts she has that just have to sit around helpless#and that cordy is one of the lucky ones because at least she knows about the hellmouth#but she also yearns for the bliss of being unconcerned with everyone elses protection and just being allowed to exist#the buffy/cordy dynamic is just. why cant i be like you. why did i have to be me. i need to be close to you to absorb some of your energy.#i hate you. i need you close. let me help you. dont look at me. please chase me.#ripping my hair out!!!!!#btvs#otp: what is your childhood trauma (via @biblicalhorror)

Bottom line is, even if you see ‘em coming, you’re not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So what are we, helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are gonna come. You can’t help that. It’s what you do afterwards that counts. That’s when you find out who you are.

Bones is never diagnosed on the show, even though she has significant problems with social interactions and displays repetitive or obsessive behaviors—the main characteristics of ASD. In an interview, Hart Hansen, the creator of the show, admitted that he based Bones on a friend with Asperger’s syndrome (which is now diagnosed as ASD). But, according to him, Fox never came out and said this because the broadcast network was hoping the show would appeal to a larger audience. Deschanel has also said that her “character almost has Asperger’s syndrome.” - I'm an Autistic Woman, and Bones Is the Only Character Like Me on TV
