Confusion about auxiliary Fe

I feel fairly confident that Ni is my dominant function. The way I make connections, look at the bigger picture, and focus on abstract ideas fit the way it is described, and this is a big factor in my thinking processes.

I considered that I might be an INFJ, but I don't fully relate to Fe. I do take into account other people's emotions and I relate to being "people-pleasing," but the rest of what I've read doesn't fit me at all.
I have very poor social skills and I cannot read social cues or body language. I come off as cold or rude without meaning to. While I do care deeply about other people's emotions, it doesn't seem that way to other people. Also, I usually can't even tell what other people's emotions are unless they tell me. A lot of this is probably a result of being on the autism spectrum, so I'm not sure if that would influence my type or not.

One of my friends suggested that I might be an INTJ, but I don't believe I have the typical Te focus of efficiency and productivity in my decisions.

I am aware that some of my reasons why I don't have these functions may be based in stereotypes, so I'm open to correction and better education about the functions.

Is there something I'm assuming or overlooking here?

Can’t find fic of Regulus’s letters to Sirius, James, Barty, Evan, etc.

I read it within the last week, and I thought it was newly updated when I read it, but I‘ve searched through tags and can’t find it again.

It was 7 chapters. The first six were Regulus’s six goodbye letters before going into the cave. This included one to Dumbledore explaining his plan, one to Sirius, one for James, and one for both Barty and Evan. The last chapter showed everyone reading the letters. And then, at the very end, it showed that Regulus ended up surviving.

The letters were really well written but I was rushed when reading them so I really wish I’d bookmarked it lol

How bad is Regulus’s ED in Kill Your Darlings?

I went ahead and started reading it because the discussions I’d read about it convinced me it would be okay for me (I don’t normally get triggered unless it romanticizes the eating disorder / portrays it as a positive thing). But I just read the part where they all go out to dinner and Sirius enables Regulus’s ED by eating his food off his plate? That just makes me feel weird. I want to know if this behaviour is going to continue and how this is dealt with in the future.
