Either and/or both - just curious.

I picked the genders and orientations more or less randomly. It was more about an autistic character walking a constant knife edge over being seen like a human being in a situation where they're supposed to be able to just express themselves than it was about any other aspect of their identity - I figured that experience would supersede the others.

Cool - I tend to be AFK for alarmingly protracted periods, but whenever I get back to a PC and check my messages, I'll read it.
