⸺ Yuuri Katsuki
No matter in what part of his life he is, were he couldn't even make a good performance or after start getting trained with Victor, what matter is that you are there for him and love him just as much as he loves you, you alone represent a great comfort for him, something that also motivate him to become better in skating
Even when Yuuri can feel quite flustered by your relationship that doesn't stop him from being close to you and being affectionate, and, honestly, the fact that you are autistic has never bothered him at all (but it does make him self-concious sometimes since he is too worried by wanting to avoid upseting you or even overwhelmed you)
By the moment Yuuri learn that you are autistic he imediatly tried to learn about autism, dating or not you are someone he cares about so he wants to make sure he knows all he has to know, and as time pass and you two grow closer he just want to learn more and more, finding it quite interesting, but he is more interested on knowing how it does affect you and what he can do to help
Guide by his love Yuuri tries to adapt his own life and rutine to your comfort, he doesn't really mind changing a few things if those make you uncomfortable, and, honestly, his parents are so happy that you two are together that they are also incredibly supportive (there are high chances that her mother learns how to make your favorite/comfort food, happily willing to cook it for you anytime you want to eat it)
Yuuri wants to avoid overwhelmed you at all costs, so most of the time he ask your opinion and is highly valuable for him, with each new perfom he is preparing he always ask you what do you think (even if you dont know nothing about skating he likes hearing your opinion), also he ask your opinion of his costumes, he always tries to make it with colors and a desing that wont overwhelmed you nor make you uncomfortable, but if it he does he will try to change it to one that is more appealing for you
Once Yuuri learns about stiming he will take a while to fully comprehend the concept and more to get used to seeing you do it, sometimes it still take him of guard and even make him nervous when is too vocal or visual (fearing that something may be bothering you), but over time he just get used to it and he even encourage you to feel free to stim all you want when you are with him or his family (he will not admit it out loud, but sometimes find your stim quite cute and even stare a little)
As much as Yuuri says that he doesn't mind having you around whenever he is practicing the skating he is clearly flustered by the idea of you wanting to see him and it even take him a moment to calm his nervous (probably failing a few times on his practice until he manage to calm down)
Yuuri is already flustered enough by the idea of you liking seeing him perform but knowing that you like it so much that you even stim by looking at him perform is going to flustered him way too much (and is quite evident for his inmense blush), he has background of doing so bad performances that he has never was able to even reach a good rank on the competition until Victor came to train him, but you liking seeing him perform this much is incredibly comforting for him, making him feel even special!
Although, he is still quite self-concious of himself, as much as he loves the idea of you loving his performances he knows that he has to improve, so the idea of you stiming by watching him perfom become one of his greatests motivation to improve, to be able to show you a performance worthy of such honor
⸺ Layla Hamilton
Layla, one of the most reconized acrobats from the world, the star from the Kaleido stage, admired and loved for much, the one who's permorfances are always passionate and perfect, managing to always move the audience is not strange of being acclaimed and praised from all her fans, and yet the fact that you, the person she love the most, find her performances beautiful and mesmerizing enough to stim with them is one of the best compliments she has recived ever

Layla is really respectful over you and expect others to be too, she doesn't make everyone else around to change and completely adapt to you but at least to have an amount of respect for you, just like she doesn't accept any insult towards the Kaleido stage she won't accept it towards you
In all honesty, is until she start to catch feeling for you that she start to investigate more about autism, also she learns a lot by being with you so she just gets used at whatever you do and learn to adapt the things she has to adapt to don't bring you problems and upset you
It take her a little to fully comprehend concepts like stiming because she really want to fully understand the concept, is probably at first she gets taken a back if you are loud or move much but quickly get used to it, although is until she learn the importance of stiming for you that she stop herself from thinking that is sometimes weird or troblesome (mainly in public or whenever she is too stressed)
After learning the importance and meaning of stiming for you when you admit to her that you like to visually stim by watching her perform or even practice Layla is quite flustered and even flattered, deep down she was hoping that you would like what she does but hearing that you even stim by it is giving her a new feeling, one that she likes, and she doesn't even waste time before thanking you for telling her and how happy she is by it
Honestly, knowing this give her motivation to keep giving the best of her and making sure everything is perfect, as well from then she likes to talk more about her practice and the new shows the Kaleido stage is working on, wanting to know your opinion on the matter more than ever (it doesn't matter if you don't say much about it but if you do she will heard you with a loving smile in her lips, a quite cute but rare scenary to look at). If there is something that you don't seem to like much or can find uncomfortable to look at Layla will try her best to change it enough for you to be comfortable with it, if she can't change it or not enough she will apologize profusely
It isn't too obvious but knowing this makes Layla being even more excited to perfom, everytime is time for the show she remind herself that you like it and she is doing this for you too (even if you don't assist that day at the performance she still thinks on you). Because of this you have always an sit just for you, either in the crowd or in backstage, wherever you feel more comfortable

Leon is already quite protective, the memories of his past make him being scare of the posibility of losing you so he is always keeping an eye on you in case you need anything, and, honestly, the fact that you are autistic it does afect him quite a lot, but not because it bothers him but because it bothers you, even if you are at peace with it that doesn't change the fact that your autism will affect your life from how you percive the world and live your life, so is that what leads Leon to always take in consideration your autism
Since the moment Leon undestand how important you became for him he started to investigate all he could about autism and paying closer attention to you, genuinely wanting to learn more about the topic and how it does affect you, he is really smart and observant and, honestly, he learns quite a lot by just watching you, so with the time he spend paying close attention to you it was only matter of time for him to learn enough to make sure you are comfortable around him, to know when is safe to take a step close or when to give you space
Leon has no problem with adapting his life to you, you are the person he loves and the only one he is willing to let get close to him and his heart, so, for him, is only right to make you feel comfortable and safe around him just like how he feels around you, besides, he doesn't really mind much having to adapt a few things if it is for you
