just sitting in a bus seat at age 12 staring out the window and not interacting with the passengers as I was sucking my finger in my own little world.
I was also like that, but then I moved and switched buses, and I now have a friend on the bus who, despite being a 14 year old NT, is mature and capable of intelligent conversation. If I try to talk to anyone else, they will twist my words into something disgusting, then tell everyone they know that I'm a pervert. Then I get bullied because they think I like "porn guns". At least until I pushed one of them down a conveniently placed stairwell. Now they tend to just avoid me.
