Request: How about DaddyConnor headcannons? :)
A/N: I love Connor so much. I just… I love him so, so much. Connor deserves all the happiness.
* Connor may or may not have cried when he found out he was going to be a dad. He had so much loss and death in his life, that when he finally, finally had something good coming to him, he couldn’t help it. In a modern setting, Connor sheds a tear or two at the first ultrasound, especially when he hears that little heartbeat for the first time.
* Connor thinks the kid is made of glass. He’s never been more gentle than he is with his newborn. Seriously- it takes him the whole first month of the baby’s life to become comfortable with holding the little one when it’s just him and the beb.
* He loves the kid so much. Seriously. He took one look at their little face when they were first born, and he thought that he would never, ever love another human quite that much. He knew he’d do anything to protect them from that moment, too. No matter what he’d have to face, or who he’d have to kill to keep them 100% safe.
* He always talks to his kid??? Seriously, he rambles so much about anything and everything, even if Connor is just telling littlest Kenway about the storms outside, or when he talks about their mama to them (this is a favorite of Connor’s). He tells them how much he loves them, too- also a favorite of his because damn, he loves his kid so, so much.
* Going on the ‘Connor loves to talk to his kid’, Littlest Kenway hears all the stories about Ziio and Achilles. All the time. Connor vowed to wait until they’re a teenager before he tells them about their ‘real’ grandfather, Haytham.
* He teaches littlest Kenway bits and pieces of his native language once they start to talk. Not enough to confuse them while they’re learning English as well, but some pretty basic words that he knows they’ll say often (like, he teaches them the words for mother, father, thank you).
* If littlest Kenway is a girl, Connor is wrapped around her finger. Seriously. Especially if she’s got his big brown eyes- there’s a certain face she pulls and Connor cannot tell her no- at all. She’s spoiled rotten all because of her dad! (this may be a shameless self plug for this fic)
* He would fight anyone and anything that even so much as looked at his kid weird, or called them some negative name. Seriously. Papa Connah will probably punch you all while holding his kid (then tell the youngin’ that that is NOT how you handle situations like that).
* Lastly… Look, Connor would do anything to make sure his kid is always safe, and that his kid always knows that they can come to him for whatever. Just having a bad day? Papa’s got your back. Someone’s picking on you? You bet Papa’s right there.
