Autistic Knives Headcanons

By an autistic writer

Written with the idea of it being modern AU

-Knives is one of the best people to hangout w if ur social battery is dead/you’re overwhelmed in public. He won’t show it much but he’s most empathetic to others in that situation- whisking you away somewhere quieter, or giving people a death glare if they bother you.

-Knives has a set routine- the only person who can sort of break this routine is Vash, and that’s because he has a mini routine of his own (although he’s a bit more spontaneous)

This routine consists of:

Waking up at 6:30, (he takes long ass showers so this time is most definitely needed)

He’ll start by washing his face, brushing his teeth, showering, changing into clothes he set out the day before.

Then he’ll prepare small things he carries on him (aka headphones- check their charge, watch- check the time + charge)

He’ll make a small breakfast and check on the groceries- vash drank the rest of the apple juice, he’ll have to go get some more on his way back home. He writes this down in his reminders.

At this time, vash will be messily tugging on his combat boots, checking how tight the laces are. He’ll bid him goodmorning and they’ll head their separate ways.

-he stims by biting his cheek or having his nails etch into his hands, clenching and unclenching his fists.

-knives is especially irritable when running late. It’s slight panic and uncomfortable-ness disguised with irritation and annoyance, and Vash can definitely tell. (Aka, vash helps to prep everything/help them go where they’re supposed to go while knives tries to calm down) because running off schedule drives him crazy and puts a damper on his day

-Knives schedules dr’s appointments for Vash. “You need your checkup.”

“But I feel fine! Besides, we’re tryna sav-“

“You need your checkup. Maybe they’ll check you for a brain tumor, since you’re so ignorant.” (Aka: take care of your health you idiot)

-Knives studies intently- he’s a big fan of libraries (he hates to admit that he works better when other ppl are around, maybe in a rush to leave or maybe in a longing for company??)

-I think quality time is a big thing for him- just sitting in silence w him is something nice and intimate in a way.

-Knives loves escorting u with his arm and u link arms bc you both have a sensory thing where you hate sweaty hands

-He needs you at his side- you’re going to get lost or do something stupid. And you depend on him, right? he doesn’t just depend on you, you need him, right? It’s for your own safety- if you’re not back in one piece it’ll nag him to no end. You’re annoying like that.

[chuthulhu-reads]

[ID: Five panels from Trigun Maximum. The background and borders are solid black instead of solid white. Before the first panel are speech bubbles saying, "Mama. Mama, look!" The second panel shows a small child pointing as his mother, a pretty woman with a kind smile, crouches next to him. In the second panel, the mother looks down at the child and says, "She's pretty, isn't she?" The little boy, still staring up, asks, "Why..." In the third panel, he looks up at his mother and continues, "...Is she in there?" In the fourth panel, the mother puts her hands on the kid's shoulders and looks up as she says, "She's... working." In the fifth panel, the mother smiles back down at her son as she says, "It's thanks to her that you, mama and papa can live here safely." The little boy looks confused. End ID.]

I WEEP over this flashback. They're introducing the plant to their child not as something weird or alien, but pretty. Not as a thing, but a person who's working, who's not just property of the community but a crucial member of it. In the next panels, the mother prompts her child to thank the plant in a way that looks both like a hyper-respectful Japanese bow and Christian prayer.

[ID: Three panels from Trigun Maximum. The first shows the little boy pointing up with a big smile. Behind him, his mother is looking back over her shoulder at her husband, a smiling man in glasses. The little boy is saying, "Mama, look! She smiled!" The second panel shows the little boy still looking up and smiling as, behind him, his parents talk and laugh together. In the third panel, the boy is turning away and looking at his parents, saying, "See?" as the father smiles and waves and the mother looks surprised. After the last panel, there's black space, and a last speech bubble saying, "She smiled..." End ID.]

She smiled. She smiled at a child smiling at her. She smiled at a child who was alive because of her. She smiled at the people who loved her and prayed to her and thanked her. She treasured them enough to remember their smiles even after being fused into the horrendous amalgamation in the Ark.

[ID: Two panels from Trigun Maximum. The first shows Knives looking startled, wide-eyed and sweating, the left side of his face flaking somewhat. The second panel shows him standing on a walkway over a huge mass of fused plants, an uncomfortably fleshy mess of wings, veins, and random limbs. Knives is saying, "Was that..."]

LOOK at that. Knives himself knows he's at risk of losing his sense of self inside that mass, and Chronica later says that plants don't innately have an individual sense of self to begin with. Yet one of those plants remembered some of the humans she once supported fondly enough to cling to that memory, no matter what; or, perhaps, that memory was so beloved by every other plant that saw it that they all kept it, all shared it and held it close to their hearts, all that love battering against Knives' shaky mental walls of rage and hatred and fear.

[ID: A chaotic double-page spread from Trigun Maximum. The first four panels show a quick sequence of Knives falling to his knees and gasping as he clutches at his face, his eyes widening desperately. The next three panels are thin slices, each showing a larger and larger number of random people, like you're pulling out from a crowd that just keeps getting bigger. Despite how many people are crammed into each panel, artistic effort has been put into making each face unique and distinct from each other. The next face shows Knives' face literally cracking and splitting into a number of panels showing the Project Seeds ships, stars in space, the shooting-star image of the ships falling, a sun rising over ruined ships, and the elongated arms of a plant reaching out from among folded wings. A panel at the bottom of the page shows Knives screaming as it looks like the flesh is actually melting off of his face. The last panel shows Elendira running towards him, crying out, "Knives!" End ID.]

I really think, at the end of the day, the plants don't necessarily mind being relied on as producers, because I think they love life and creation. They've held onto all of these faces, all these people who were alive because of them. Short of the horror of the Last Runs, maybe they take pride in what they do. Maybe seeing other lives flourish from theirs makes them happy. We don't know for sure, but for all the body horror in their imagery, they are still, ultimately, evocative of angels. And they're reaching out to Knives with enough love for humanity to fracture the walls in his mind that he's put up against the reality of what the Big Fall was, against remembering that he did once love humans, and then he killed tens of millions of them. Being forced to see humans as Vash and the other plants do--as individuals, as living things, as people--is literally tearing him apart. God this page is a real artistic flex from Nightow, both in terms of panel composition and just thumbing his nose at mangaka that draw the same three faces forever

#Trigun #I love the plants so much #I think we can infer a lot by assuming that Vash (and Knives as a child) is pretty normal for a plant #Loving being around other living things #Loving helping other living things #Like yeah now Vash has a massive guilt complex #But he was always a kind kid #and Knives as a kid was LONGING to meet other people #My autistic ass feeling the longing to just be weird and do your own thing #but being extra happy when you can Do Thing for others that they appreciate #They're such eldritch sweethearts I love them so much

the pro-bullying dumbasses on social media are obviously wrong and cruel, but i also think (or maybe hope) they like...genuinely have no idea what they're referring to. like they think 'bullying' is some shit you'd seen on a nickelodeon comedy or something, like some pg insults and a smash cut and your underwear's on your head, and not like. literal assault and murder attempts. like its such a complete disconnect from what it actually looks like when people talk about 'shoving into lockers' as if that's a cartoony action and not a deeply violent and traumatizing idea when you actually think about it for more than a second.

#both my parents have stories of running for their lives from other kids with like knives and shit to get home safely #my mom for being a larger girl and my dad for being weird and autistic #idk why yall seem to think bullying is basically a low stakes thing 'normal' people do #and not literal hate crimes being dismissed by those in power

Benoit Blanc from the Knives Out series is autistic, submitted by anon!

Another headcanon I have of Knives is that he appears more inhuman than Vash.

Mainly because I believe Vash would put more effort into blending in with humans, he wants to get along with them and live beside them but he knows that his more Plant like features are off putting and uncanny, so he hides as many as he can. Humans can still see that something isn’t quite normal about him, but they’ll probably just brush it off and think he’s just a bit weird.

But with Knives, he doesn’t care what humans think about him, and he doesn’t want to seen as one either. Anyone who looks at him immediately knows he’s not human. His eyes are too bright, teeth too sharp, skin too perfect. There’s an aura about him, one that instantly labels him as a threat, as something more. He’s a higher being hidden in a false human camouflage, there’s so much more to his form than just what humans can perceive.

#oops I accidentally made him a lil eldrich #but I think that’s kinda accurate #I love the idea of Knives being really uncanny #also the bit I wrote about Vash kinda sounds like autistic masking #I may have projected a little there lol #trigun #trigun stampede #millions knives #vash the stampede #trigun headcanons

I relate to Benoit Blanc because I too was going mad without a special interest until Glass Onion happened.

It’s unimportant.

A fic where Knives doesn’t understand why you’re on his mind

Autistic knives, pining, DENIAL

Meeting you certainly wasn’t a problem, no, repeatedly seeing you was the issue.

When he’d started wondering what snacks you’d like outside of class- since you’re always eating a bag of gummies and whatnot- what would you like? You were ignorant in that sense, munching on something that most definitely could be healthier.

Why did he even think about you out of class? You were just someone who he’d allow in his vicinity, in his company. Having someone to compare notes with (even though he had perfectly adequate notes, thank you very much) and study with wasn’t.. disadvantageous.

It was pointless- futile. You irked him to no end. You complained about class, yet were clearly dedicated. A burning passion that remained contradictory.

Why did you plague his mind?

He wouldn’t give an answer to that.

.

.

.

“Hello,” he called out your name, eyes fixated on his laptop screen as he read over the material from the previous lecture, although you wouldn’t doubt he had already reviewed.

“Hey.” You seated yourself beside him, his crisp laptop out with perfectly procured notes open. His clean cut nails up to his neatly done hair were on display. “You didn’t even turn around! You must have a sixth sense of something.” The squeaking of your chair indicated you were scooting your chair.

“If you say so.” He shrugs, although his nails repeatedly dig into his hand.

He’d recognized the patter of your footsteps, your usual comfort shoes you wore around campus. The shoes that were a bit worn out, but got the job done.

He could hear your snack wrapper, and before he could refrain from doing so he spoke,

“You should maintain your diet more.”

That came out wrong- he could see you turn your head towards him wondrously from his peripheral view, “I mean,” he clears his throat, “Those aren’t good for you. Have this.” He rummage through his bag, pulling out a protein bar. “You probably need the protein.”

He holds it out, and if you really wanted to observe him you could see his face switch from slightly panicked to (faked) stoicism, indifference, and maybe even annoyance. A mask he’s perfected for years.

“Aw, thank you.” Your voice raises at the end, hand gently reaching for it. His eyes flicker down, only to swiftly pull away once your hand had a flimsy hold on the bar.

He has to refrain from glancing over, to see you appreciating something so small from him. It’s minuscule, it doesn’t matter, it’s just a protein bar.

He’s adamant on not thinking about it.

Vash strikes me as the kind of autistic who would really love soft fabrics. Just running his hands over them to get that good texture ™️. And he’d love those really good blankets that have the perfect weight to them. Something he could envelop himself in like a bird in a nest. You can pry bird tendency Vash from my cold dead hands

Knives however hates any fabric that isn’t stretchy. Look at him. Look at what he’s wearing. I’m also so certain this man sleeps with no blankets or a really light one. If it’s too heavy he’ll kill himself about it. Also the whole “humans suck and I will not be partaking in stupid things Vash come on.”
