Protective!Maedhros would include:
Especially since coming to Beleriand, Maedhros is very protective and rarely lets you go out of the kingdom unaccompanied
When you’re at formal gatherings, he keeps as close to you as possible, not satisfied unless you’re within arms reach
It could get unhealthy, since his family tend to obsess over things and are predisposed to violence
He’s lost so much in his life, he hangs onto you all the more tightly because of it, he can’t afford to lose you otherwise he might go insane
Especially towards the end of his life with the oath weighing heavily on his mind, Maedhros will restrict your movements, even to the point of you not leaving his fortress
You have a permeant guard assigned to you and they regularly report your activities back to him
It may feel a bit like a gilded cage by the end, the only people he trusts you around are Maglor, Elrond and Elros
In Valinor, he’s more relaxed with you, although he still likes to keep an eye on what you’re doing
He thinks you’re so beautiful that people might try to steal you away. Even if you insist that he’s the only one you want, he still has a tiny doubt in the back of his head
Who could steal you away anyway? He’s a tall, handsome Ñoldor prince, and not to mention a fantastic warrior. There are few who could top that, apart from the Valar
If you’re on a ride with him or in a battle and are attacked, he’ll always swoop in and save you without a second thought. Due to his time in Angband, he doesn’t have any instinct to save himself so your safety will come before his own every time
When other diplomats make conversation with him and bring you up, he tries not to talk about you since he doesn’t think it’s anyone else’s business
