Summary: Random situations with him and a sprinkle of headcannons
A/N: Mmm... This man is on my mind like crazy. Gotta love a mad man that is also incredibly complex and difficult to fully understand and also crumbling emotionally but it's fine because you're there for them even though they are fictional.
Warnings: GN reader. Unedited. Mentions of panic attacks.
~ Frequently has nightmares. It happens spontaneously or with a trigger. Nights where it's spontaneous, it's not too rough. You just have to put on all the lights to prove no one else is here and then you'd have to coax him to sleep. When it's with a trigger however, it's much worse. The thing about these nightmares are that they often accompanied by a panick attack of sorts. He's staring blankly ahead of him, pupils dilated and practically heaving steam from his mouth. His pulse is racing and his body shivering but he can't utter a word.
~ These nights always end in sleepless ones. Because even if you do manage to calm him down, he can't go back to sleep after that. He'll spent the night staring silently at the ceiling. His triggers are likely related to his trauma. That fight with Rerir? Trigger. That time where he couldn't fight back against the Wild Hunt for hours on end? Trigger. Basically, whenever he gets the sinking feeling of not having power like when he was younger can possibly lead to a trigger. The nightmares just rouse that panick when he's sleeping.
~ Despite having not having a lot of interests other than fighting, I think he occasionally likes to do wood carving or cooking. His knives has to be of some use outside battle, no?
~ Not the type to give flowers but the type to murder someone that pissed you off.
~ Hates putting on armour. He'll tolerate it because it's part of the Knight's dress code but if he's off the clock? He's stripping that hard exterior to feel the battle head on without the potential restrictions of the armour.
~ I can see him as someone that might enjoy reading on the odd occasion. Not a hobby but something to pass the time when he's left with nothing else.
~ Whiny. He's like a dog that constantly wants to go outside. Then when he's outside, scratches at the door for you to come out with him or let him back inside. He likes having you at his side, after all, he wouldn't know what to do with himself if you'd get hurt.
~ If he wants to win an argument. He will. Whether it be through threats or bribery. Whichever works. He's not picky.
~ His parents became overprotective after Lohen was rescued so whatever you do, do not try to control him. He wants to be free and in control of himself thank you very much.
~ His annoying habits include: chewing bubblegum loudly, humming in dead silence, shoulder bumping to get your attention, poking your ribs until he has your attention, drugging, smuggling goods, deceit, unauthorised assassination and sprinkling pepper or pollen on your collar just to see you sneeze :)
~He occasionally throws his shoes across the room when he struggles to get them on. Have you seen those boots?
~ Once destroyed all the dummies meant for the new recruits because he got bored.
~ I see him as very interested in your hands or neck. Loves intertwining your fingers with his and just generally holding hands. Same with your neck. Loves squeezing and caressing it.
Special:
~ If he feels you skills need sharpening, make sure to keep an eye out for him. He's shooting from his mini crossbow just to keep you on your toes. "What? You have to be prepared at all times sweet thing. Can't have you dying on me before I have some fun."
A/N: I heard ppl saying he's 13... He's of legal age and higher in these hcs. *sniff*
