Caregiver headcanons about Dean Winchester from supernatural?
⢠Hugs from him are tight and all consuming since he always a pours his heart and soul into them. They take all worries awayāat least for the moment.
āspeaking of; forehead kisses. Started with the occasional feather light one during hugs, turned into kiss attacks on your cheeks to make you laugh.
-hes also just fantastic at making you laugh. Games, teasing, silly dad jokes, bickering with Sam, tickling, playing dress up, whatever he does he knows just how to get you into a giggling fit.
- He loves costumes and getting you in on them.
āand while he may pretend he doesnāt like all the touchy āchick flickā affection, heās a liar and everyone knows it. He loves cuddling and rocking you.
⢠Heās strong enough to pick you up and carry you and man.. itās hard to get him to put you down once heās got you on his hip.
āHe likes being close to you and being able to have you in his arms. He feels like heās actively protecting you in that moment. Like he can keep all harm away by just holding you.
-Car rides all the time. Whether itās to clear his head or yours or just to help lull you to sleep to the sound of soft rock and the hum of the road.
-music! His lullabies are all rock songs.
⢠The toys and outfits he gets you are car themed or rock themed until you state you want something else. (You will have to help shop because he states ādoesnāt know what heās doing.ā)
⢠Cartoons are something he insists on because he likes them. Scooby-Doo is the most obvious one but anything you may request he will get sucked into.
⢠He likes to cook and bake for you if he canāt because he likes the domesticity of it.
āalso sweets. Sweets! Sweets! Sweets! Sam has to intervene occasionally and remind you both that you have to eat real meals other than pie, cake, candy, and whatever else you two have gotten into.
āBut Dean canāt say no to giving you desserts when he wants them just as bad.
⢠He likes caring for you in general because he loves having a family and while he still struggles with the trauma of having to grow up early to be a dad for Sam, he still has the desire to care for someone that needs him completely.
⢠Being in his life means being in everyone he lovesā life. Sam, Cas, Bobby, etc. Everyone is aware of you two. And as long as you donāt cause world ending trouble and you make Dean happy they canāt complain. Hell they may(absolutely will) even start liking you too from seeing you regressed around him and how he treats you.
⢠He cares so much. Itās nearly overbearing and it sometimes is misread as being aggression or distrust but heās just worried and a bit insecure.
⢠Sam will always be his number one but this all started because he saw his little brother in you so much he couldnāt help his caregiver instincts from taking over.
āHe wants to just take care of you forever. Keep you from harms way. From the monsters and horrors of the world that the adults take care of. Youāre too little to have to deal with that. So youāre not going to if he has any say in it. And, boy, does he have a lot of say.
ā(Sam helps deescalate some of the tension that stems from this recurring conversation, calming Dean down a bit since he knows how it feels to be a target of Deanās extreme concern.)
ā If you get hurt he is all over it. Heās fixing you up before your first tear can even fall.
-But then you get lectured about being careful.
⢠He freaked out initially when you called him something like ādaddyā or āpapa.ā He hadnāt been expecting to have gotten that attached to you and that intertwined with your regression that you would view him like a father.
āHe shut down for a few days and was more distant from you while he processed it. He was afraid of being a dad due to everything in his past and really really didnāt want to become his father.
āIt took a āchick flickā heart-to-heart with Sam involved and some tears to get Dean to comes back and try again with you.
āBut after a while he warmed up to it entirely and even refers to himself as ādaddyā or āpapaā or something.
-āI knoooow, kid, but Papa wants to take a nap so youāre coming with. Bring a stuffie to cuddle and complain to.ā
- āDaddy and Sammy are gonna have to head out for a little bit. Will you be good and stay right here? Or should I drop you off at Bobbyās to be babysat?ā āYou want Cas to babysit you? Kid⦠heā well..angels are busy doingā donāt give me puppy eyes! Did Sam teach you that??ā
