“Finn radiates pain. He’s so tense, it hurts to look at him. I wonder if he realizes it. In my experience, most people – most neurotypical people – don’t. Even if they’ll talk about nonverbal language and how important it is, they don’t realize how unconscious most reactions are and how much they’re sharing. But I do. You teach yourself how to read body language when winning a game – or navigating life – depends on it.”
