Harry Potter character an Aspie

Yes I agree. She's the one I most identify with. She's like a 'female phenotype' Aspie too, which is not quite the same as the way male Aspies are often portrayed.
 
Growing up reading the books I was afraid of luna (don't know why) so I've never identified her as that, but she certainly is strange so it's possible.
 
Not sure if she's autistic, but I enjoyed her character very much.

Calm and collective in the midst of chaos and tragedy. :cool:

Can I ask why you were afraid of her?

Yeah, I don't mind that. I'm not sure why I was, one possibility may be because she had her mom die and at the time I really didn't want to lose my mom, so if I thought of luna I guess my brain equated that with the possible death of my mom.

I understand.
 
Wife and I were watching Harry Potter and she immediately knew Luna was the female I'd be most attracted to.

Not that I'd turn down a date with Hermione. :)
 
"I always get a lot of letters from people with autism who relate to Luna a lot," Lynch said. "Obviously, I don't fully understand the condition, but, I understand this feeling of you just can't communicate with those around you and it gets misunderstood, and you just want people to see your heart, to see how you feel, but it's hard to communicate that."
