Could you do dating head cannons or even just regular head cannons on gargoyles and shapeshifters? if not just ignore this because I know those monsters (esp gargoyles) tend to have little to no lore/difficult to find myths and so I imagine it’s hard to make a list of head cannons on them compared to say a vampire or werewolf. Tysm and stay safe !
I actually like the idea of doing something for gargoyles :D . I plan to upload general headcanons for them first (before doing any dating headcanons). But for now, here are some shapeshifter dating headcanons.
Dating a Shapeshifter
Shapeshifters are good at reading their partner's mind. They often have to be vigilant of other’s mannerisms to better fit in, thus picking up on nonverbal cues comes easily to them.
Shapeshifters are naturally more extroverted. They like being around others, so expect a lot of outings. If you are more of a homebody, they will try to meet you halfway and plan something in a less populated place.
They get jealous super easily. They have a paranoia that you will find someone else in your species to date.
They are BIG on dates. They will remember your birthday, your 1 month anniversary, your dog's birthday, etc. Everyday with you they are grateful, so they will always find a reason to celebrate.
Be cautious when dating a shapeshifter though. It is important to set clear boundaries early on in the relationship. If you don’t they may come off as clingy or overbearing. While having no malicious intent, it can be a little overbearing.
