Hello! I saw your post and was wondering if you could do a Death the Kid X autistic! Reader? If not that’s totally fine and hope college is going well for you :)
Hi Anon!
I was pretty scared to start writing this since I'm not on the spectrum and I didn't want it to be offensive in any way. I did my best to research and reached out to some of my friends to help!
I didn't know if you wanted this to be a fic or headcanons so I did both!
Pairing: Death the Kid x GN!Reader
(Please keep in mind all characters are aged up, none of them are minors)
Warnings⚠️: Kid is kinda rude in the beginning but it turns into fluff I promise

How you meet
You walked into Lord deaths office, being the newest transfer student of the academy. Lord death invited you to take a seat right in front of him.
"Ah, Y/N, correct? I am very happy to have you at our academy. I'm sure you'll fit in just fine!" He hands you your new schedule. All you do is stare at the paper. It's like it's not even real. You feel yourself drift away, like you're in the clouds, floating. You can hear Lord death talking to you, but you don't process it. Not at all. Who knows how long you stayed like that, drtifting away. It's not until the first bell rings, and he tells you to make your way to class that you realize you didn't catch anything he said. Not wanting to seem rude, you smiled and left. That was some time ago. Now you were in the middle of some hallway, wondering where you took the wrong turn.
You looked at your schedule and back at the school map, schedule, school map, schedule-
Where was I again?
That's right, class, you were trying to make your way to class. Just then you felt yourself become overwhelmed. You didn't know where you were, what to do, or who to ask for help. As you walk by, trying to take in your unfamiliar surroundings, you reach into your pocket and start playing with a bobby pin.
Maybe I'll calm down more with this. Maybe I can find my classroom before the next class starts!
You begin to giggle at yourself, wondering how you got here in the first place.
THUD!
Not looking ahead, you ran into what seemed like a wall, until you see papers flying everywhere and a man in front of you.
"What the hell is wrong with you?! Can't look where you're going?!" He shouts. This causes you to shut down. No longer are you giggling and smiling trying to make your way to class. You're on the floor staring at this man, not daring to say a word. He had black hair with white stripes, golden eyes, and, a suit? Weird. He goes on and on about how he organized the papers for hours on end, ready to place them around the school at their respective corners, each one at the same height. As he continues to ramble, your eyes look around, you need something to ground yourself in this situation.
My bobby pin! Where's, where's my bobby pin?
You start searching for your precious bobby pin on all fours. While trying to find it you feel tears well up in your eyes. You try to blink them away but it's no use, and one falls. Coincidentally, it falls on one of those paper flyers the other guy had. And he saw.
No longer is he shouting at you for what you did, no longer is he glaring at you, instead he stares softly at you.
"Are you looking for something?" He asks. You look at him, a lump in your throat preventing you from speaking.
"I'm sorry I got carried away, I just, I spent a long time organizing these flyers for the school, my father asked me to. I'm Death, Death the Kid." He extends his hand out for you to shake, but you just loom at him. You want to move, but you can't, you want to talk to him, apologize, maybe even scream back, but you can't. You want to, but at this moment it's like the whole world is suffocating you.
He gets up and reaches his hand out "Come on, I'll help you up" Your hand trembles as you take his, he pulls you up. He picks up your schedule, "Y/N huh? So you're new, now I feel like more of an asshole" He laughs. "Come on, I'll take you to the bathrooms then I'll walk you to class" As you both make your ways to the bathroom and Kid stays outside, you look in the mirror at yourself. Your hair disheveled from the impact, mascara running, puffy red eyes from the tears. You do your best to make yourself look presentable and walk outside the bathrooms.
Kid looks up, "Feeling better? I can walk to class if you would like, I don't have anything better to do." He smiles. You feel it, you can feel yourself trying to talk to him, to tell him something. "The flyers..." You meant for the sentence to come out bold, but instead it came out barely above a whisper. "Hm? Is something wrong?" He asks. If it were earlier you would've been talking his ear off, info dumping like there's no tomorrow. "I'm sorry about, about, the flyers" You spoke up a little louder, fidgeting with your hands. "Oh, I can always print out new ones" He smiles. "Right now, we need to get you to class" He grabs your hand and leads you down the hallway you both came from. Your eyes scan everywhere, but bobby pins are pretty hard to find when there's papers scattered everywhere they shouldn't be. You let out a sigh, "If you're looking for something, I can help you find it" He suggests "I need to clean all this up anyway. Can you, tell me what you're looking for?" He asks. "B,bobby pin" is all you could manage to say. But before you know it Kid is on the floor grabbing the flyers and stacking them neatly, all in their respective piles while looking for your bobby pin.
"Got it" He yells, causing you to cover your ears. "Sorry, did I scare you? I guess you don't like when people are too loud..here" He places the bobby pin in your hand. You smile, wishing you could thank him, but a smile will do. "Come on, let's get you to class before, oh, there's only 10 minutes left." Your small adventure had taken too long and now you missed your first class at the academy, before you began to spiral Kid gripped your hand tighter, "It's okay, we can spend them together." He smiles. There was something about him that made you think you two were similar, and that you two would grow very close in the future. "Alright, what now, Kid?"
When you date
A complete sweetheart
Adjusts his rooms lighting to your liking
Buys you things to fidget with
Let's you talk his ear off about whatever you're obsessed with at the moment
Doesn't make loud sounds with you, tries to tell others to be quiet
Introduces you to his friends
You go to black star when you're feeling understimulated, he always gets you going
You guys have study dates
Never works out, Kid can't write his name, you can't focus on the paper
Hand holding!!
If you're in a crowd and it's too loud, Kid knows when you need time. Rubs his thumbs in circles on the back of your hand
If it's too much he will take you outside and you two will talk, your head leaning on his shoulder while he whispers sweet nothings in your ear
Will always kiss you on the forehead
Talks for you at restaurants or with new people
He just wants to make sure you feel safe and heard!!
A/N: I hope this wasn't bad! It's my first time writing in awhile so please let me know what you think!
Xi
