Why shouldn't you? If you were writing about characters you didn't like, I would be concerned.

Ahem... good morning.

I have characters I dislike

Well, not all of your characters should be likeable if you want to have villains or antagonists. But generally speaking you should create protagonists you can be fond of.

seriously sometimes I just feel like autumn is either a cool protagonist, a weakling, or a sociopath

I'm trying to tone down the sociopathy, but still hewwo a bit in there to make her more interesting

Honestly, Autumn's insecurity and low self-esteem are clear signs that she's not a sociopath in the psychiatric sense. Real sociopaths/psychopaths have high self-esteem and genuinely do believe they are better than anyone else; they're egomaniacs with a vastly inflated sense of self-worth and a level of emotional maturity below that of a toddler.

If anything, the most sociopathic character you've created isn't Autumn, it's Floyd.

fiyeeeeeeerrrrooooooooooooooooooooo

yeah i guess

i just feel like maybe floyd would be a better character if his motivation was respect or something

i get he's the villain but
nobody becomes evil just because they can

Well, even sociopaths don't do evil deeds "because they can"; they commit evil because it gratifies them. Floyd's need for validation comes from his pathological narcissism, while Autumn's need for validation comes from her cripplingly low self-image. The desire is the same, but Floyd's motivation is more malignantly selfish.

That's what I gather from how you've described your characters, anyway.
