Jimmy, 19 years old, MO

Jimmy is autistic, doesn't speak much except when he really needs something, and when he does use his voice he is very direct. "Brevity is the soul of wit" as Shakespeare once wrote. Jimmy loves his routine, which includes sometimes escaping into virtual reality. Ever since he tried on an Occulus Quest at a best buy with his new legal guardian two months ago, he has been hinting that he wants one. He points to it incessantly in any print or TV ad he sees, he says "Quest" during car rides, and he'll even pretend like he is playing Beat Saber in his room. Sometimes he plays it at the dinner table or at school when he's supposed to be sitting still.
