do you have any headcanons for draal trying to woo his human s/o? Like, someone he has a crush on but isn’t dating yet? Thank you
Hey finally back to posting again~! I’m so sorry for being away for so long - work’s been kicking my back in and I’ve been going through a real slump of disapproval with how everything I’m writing is coming out but I’m not about to let that stop me! Expect some more posts soon although it may take a bit for me to truly get back into routine again ^^ Thank you again so much for all of you patience and I hope you enjoy~

Draal trying to woo his little human crush is an absolute treat once he figures out he’s got feelings for you - he wouldn’t know very much about human courting customs unless he turned to Jim or the others for advice, so he’d instead make an effort to impress them at any given opportunity; this of course will start with small things like showing off his strength, sparring more often whenever you’re nearby and generally just going out of his way to gain your attention.
You can certainly expect some gifts to wind up in your possession from time to time, although they’d likely be things he’d reason have practical uses such as weaponry and the like, things that he’s sure even humans can wield; it’s all under the premise that he’s giving them to you so you can learn to properly fight of course, but really it just gives him the chance to spend more time with you to teach you how to use them properly. Of course he’s never really anything of the affectionate type so this is likely the closest you’re gonna physically get to him when he has a crush, but he’s arguably a bit softer on his demeanor when he’s around you than with most others.
He’s protective from the get-go, sure that even if you can defend yourself he can still keep an eye on you to ensure that no one will even think to mess with you, (of course it’s doubtful that anyone will when you’ve got a big burly troll right at your side); you in turn find it pretty cute having him around you all the time, especially when you manage to fluster him if you call him out on the fact, but it’s easy to see that he’s crushing hard.
Draal might turn to the trollhunter for advice on how to properly gain your attention if he isn’t sure that the interest is returned, although he probably wouldn’t tell Jim that he was actively making an effort trying to woo you (everyone would definitely already know by this point though - subtlety is definitely not Draal’s thing); if that doesn’t work though in the end he might just directly confront you about the matter after some consideration - better to be upfront than to do nothing.It really wouldn’t take you very long to figure out that he’s got a crush given he’s never been the most subtle (with what the over protectiveness and the like) but it’s up to you whether you approach him about it first or wait for him to take the lead when he works up to finally confessing.
