I think he made Natascha slightly autistic too, and since she already seemed to be almost if not on the spectrum... she's the kind of person I can identify with, anyway... she got along with him well and was able to identify with him, they developed an understanding, etc.


All German people seem to look autistic, some more than others... Natascha in some pictures looks like that.


What do you mean by the phrase "look autistic"???????

Folks with Down's syndrome have a VERY distinctive facial look. But not autistic people. Austistics tend to just look just like NTs.

If you don't mean physical features, but "a look that is a byproduct of demeanor" then that's different. If a guy never combs his hari, or always has one shirt tail untucked, or always wears plaid pants with a plaid shirt, because he is too self absorbed, or too socially inept to know better...then...…yes you could say that such a person "looks autistic". Lol! But autistics don't have distinctive facial features.
