Hi! Could you give some headcanons about Darth Maul (yes I know that's probably a weird one 😅) as a caregiver? Thanks! I love your blog!!

(tysm!!! and not weird at all, here are those headcanons for you 💗)

→ he’s a super protective caregiver, even if he is not one to pander to being unreasonable, but he is fiercely protective over whoever he’s looking after. somebody looks at them wrong? he’s there to loom angrily.

→ much to anybody else’s surprise, he’s actually so much fun to play games with. once he gets past the initial awkwardness of adjusting to playing, he’s so willing to listen to his kid ramble and describe all sorts to him, periodically chiming in when appropriate.

→ he tells such good stories, even if the stories usually aren’t super kid friendly, or particularly peaceful; they’re always exciting and they always have a happy ending. 9/10 if he tells the stories before bedtime, the kiddos out like a light before the first ones over.

→ he’s so good at handling big feelings of anxiety, being overwhelmed / overtired, or anything similar to that. despite what some people would think, he’s able to be especially calming when it comes to that sort of thing. he’s really good at adapting to what the kid needs at the exact time.

→ he’s not the most outwardly/easily affectionate person - much preferring to try and comfort and interact from a slight distance - but he has no issue hands-on comforting when he needs to, even if it’s just for something little like wanting a cuddle. he gives some of the best hugs imaginable, when he’s done being awkward about it.
