My autistic accent: vaguely northern US accent (emulated mostly from TV growing up), reflexive mimicking of vocal quirks around people I particularly respect (ie. like a faint lisp, or pieces of a thick accent), naturally monotone with occasional emulated attempts at emotional inflection (not super often, I don't have the effort to emulate inflection at the same time as emulating expression and I prioritize expression), difficulty with volume control (sensory and excitement based), moderate rate of speech.
Oh, and some canned phrases/responses I've picked up over the years, though at this point I have to pay attention to notice them.

(Out of spoons, if someone gives me an image description for the set I'll edit to add it)
