Ruv w/ Autistic S/O

Ask: hi! I'm Lavender Anon and I'm actually using @friday-night-gayin as my fnf main!

I was wondering if I could get some soft Ruv x reader who stims, has sensory issues and trouble with expressions due to autism? sorry if this is outside your area, I appreciate it and the work you've done!

===================

Heya Lavender Anon! Actually this is my area of expertise! I am autistic and have the same issues myself, besides for making expressions. I didn't know that the repetitive movements I did had a proper name to them... Also congrats on becoming a regular!

Ruv w/ Autistic S/O

- To be honest, he doesn't really know there's something different about you than other people, until someone points it out

- "Why does you partner keep 'meowing' and shifting around on their heels?" "This is normal for them, you mind buzzing off and minding your business? So annoying..." "You know they could have ASD right?" "Hm?" "Autism?" "Oh.....what is that?"

- He had to look it up, a lot of times. So you were having issues he wasn't aware of because of the way your brain is?

- "Meow." "Y/N, you're 'stimming' right now, right?" "Mhm." "Does that help you in any way?" "It helps me calm down when in social situations. My friends and parents say it isn't really appropriate...but I can't really help it." "Hm...What form of Autism do you have?" "I have a mix of Asperger's and Sensory Processing Disorder." "So...a lot of things are hard for you to understand or feel." "Uh-huh!"

"Must be hard to deal with...." "You probably have a form of it too, I know how uncomfortable you get in social situations. Sarvente said something about you having trouble trying to smile too." "I think that's more PTSD Y/N, but I appreciate the thought."

- The time he found you staring at your reflection with a perplexed look he had to ask

- "Meow." "Y/N? Are you ok?" "I'm ok...Just trying to work on my expressions? It's really hard! People keep thinking I'm not reacting properly to the information I'm being giving all the time..." "I have issues with that too." "Uh-huh, I could tell, you try so hard to smile when you're actually happy that it looks painful. You always have a 'poker face'?"

——-

"You want to practice with me? Maybe you can figure it out before me!" "Sarvente was wanting me to work on that anyways, why not?"

- To say that you had fun trying to get him to make funny faces with you was an understatement. He even learned how to make a slight smile without causing himself pain

- He's continuing to try to understand your condition further to make sure he can help you in any way he can. He knows that he has to take you out of a lot of social situations when the conversations get too loud. He'll always cover your eyes when things become to bright. He knows you really hate that.

- He still finds the stimming to be normal, though he tries to comfort you himself instead of letting you stim for too long
