Yes! Some Moomintroll headcanons:

He never quite becomes at good at cooking as his mother, nor does he ever get the hang of writing like his father, but he does become a sort of jack-of-all trades in terms of house work and repair. Moomintroll often gets ideas in his head about projects he wants to work on, and when he gets started, he tends to become completely absorbed, skipping meals and sometimes even sleep.

Moomintroll can be a bit self-absorbed and oblivious at times, but when it really counts, he becomes a source of calm and comfort for those around him. It’s not so much that he consciously tries to make himself a leader, but he falls so naturally into the leadership role that other people feel compelled to follow his example.

I hc Moomintroll as bisexual. He’s aware of his attraction to girls from a young age, after he got over the whole “girls have cooties” phase. And he romanticizes the idea of having a wife, like Moominpappa has Moominmamma. So while he starts crushing on Snufkin early on in their friendship, it takes him a while to realize that all his affection and pining isn’t platonic.

Moomintroll and Too-Ticky end up sharing a special bond. As a child, he doesn’t quite understand why he looks up to her so much, and it’s not until much later that he realizes that Too-Ticky was basically his first queer role model. That, and Too-Ticky shares his love of woodworking. I like to imagine that she tutored him in the art of carpentry, especially over the winter, whenever Moomintroll woke up early from his hibernation.

As an adult, Moomintroll is far more self-assured with himself, confident in a way that others (especially Snorkmaiden and Snufkin) find very attractive. He isn’t afraid to speak his mind. Nor is he easily embarrassed.

Moomintroll is a very tactile person. He grew up in a family where physical affection was freely given, and it’s become his main love language. And while he does his best to respect everybody’s bodily autonomy, asking for consent with his words or body language, there is a part of him that feels a little hurt/rejected when someone turns down a hug. This becomes a big learning curve with Snufkin, who is more particular about when and who gets to touch him.

Moomintroll is the type of person to develop crushes quite often. Most of the time, those crushes are short-lived. Even so, Moomintroll tries to be conscientious, because he’s aware that Snorkmaiden can become insecure if she feels like Moomintroll’s affection for her is fading/being outweighed by his newest crush. Moomintroll comes to believe that honesty is the best policy. So he will inform Snorkmaiden of his newest crush, while also reminding her that his love for her has not dwindled.

Thanks for the prompt!! These were really fun!
