~°𖦹 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚-𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧𝐬: ❁~°

•Norma loves all Latin music and sometimes she starts dancing cumbias with Once-ler

•Onceler always wants to avoid the problems that Norma may cause

•Norma sometimes gets playful with him, although she ends up intimidating him ; ;

•Tall bisexual, short bisexual :]

(Sorry my English is terrible, but those are my Normaler headcanons ^^)

(Lo siento mi inglés es un poco malo, pero esos fueron mis headcanons de Normaler ^^)

(¡No te preocupes! Encuentro tu inglés bastante bueno de hecho ;) ! )

The second hc is interesting... first he tries to avoid problems for someone else, but judging how the plot goes, his morals change. No longer caring if someone else gets in trouble (let's say, the animals, trees, etc.) and that includes Norma. Considering he likely ignored her a lot as Greedler.... But most importantly, a lack of caring about himself.

Third hc is entirely possible lmao, I think Norma is this playful woman that inevitably becomes too boisterous... she's the definition of a powerful woman. She definitely has problems controlling her strength when she's playful. Sometimes she forgets how short she is, constantly roughhousing like Onceler against her (especially Onceler, trying to fight him is amusing!)

[all-things-normaler]

normaler would slow dance with eachother before the onceler became greedy

I raise you one better, an intense tango. Norma comes to his office trying to break Once-ler out of his greed, and barges in with all of these incriminatory questions, only for him to just simply stand up from his desk, make his recorder play a song and distracts her with a dance, while she argues and he throws counterarguments as he persuades her about the past and how much he misses it all. Norma does too, but she feels like while the emotion is honest, the intention isn't. It's manipulation, but they're drawn together into this magnetism.

They end the dance with a kiss, and the arguing is over after an unsatisfying resolution, but Norma can't help but feel that she just did a whole bunch of nothing. They lock eyes, remembering for a second all they lost. She separates, hugs herself. Tells him that she's had enough, that she shouldn't interrupt him with his duties.

“I'll be waiting for you back home.”

She turns, and disappears the moment she goes behind that door and closes it.

Onceler takes a seat, sighs, runs his hand through his hair. He very much missed those moments. For a mere instance they had it, but there's no way back.

For Norma, for Onceler, and for the forest of truffula trees. The ending is near.

To Onceler, there's no return, he has to maintain a company, he's tied.

Norma is tied to the Onceler, for reasons she doesn't know yet.

They're tied to anything, but each other.

[all-things-normaler]

what are some of your hot takes? mine is that mrs wiggins isn't necessarily the onceler's daughter because she didn't know who she was, but it's a mamma mia type of situation instead

Well, normaler is such a small fandom that I don't have any hot takes to be honest

[all-things-normaler]

i like to think that norma looks like nicola coughlan in bridgerton season 3

I had to search who that was, but I def know her! I just didn't recognize her name. I totally agree anon!

HELEN AN ONCELER HEADCANONS

(I hc all of theses when helen is at least a a newborn-4 years old and is basedof my fanfic coming soon!)

The Onceler would use an acoustic guitar to sing her lullabies every night.

Whenever Helen gets sick Onceler gets so overprotective over her

Onceler gives Helen nose kisses and blows raspberries on her stomach

Whenever Onceler isnt busy him and Norma would play peekaboo with Helen

Helen always crawled to the Onceler

When Helen learned to walk/run everytime the onceler came home little Helen would always run to him and hug his leg.

When Norma mentions that Helen would eventually have to date soon to the onceler would get so mad knowing he loved Helen so much and doesn't want her to be heartbroken.

When its the holidays (or whenever) and helen makes hot chocolate for them woth whipped cream, he puts whipped cream on Helens nose and she always giggles.

It was the Onceler who had baby fever and wanted a girl

Onceler sometimes has Helen sleep on his chest while he sleeps aswell on his bed or couch.

Onceler always loved holding Helen.

Onceler had tickeled and made little noises to make Helen laugh

Helen had always hid behind the onceler legs when his family came over because even Helen and Norma had a bad feeling about them.

Helen always tug on the oncelers pants and opens her arms to get his attention when she wants to get picked up by him.

(MORE HC COMING SOON!!)

The baby fever hc hurts a lot when you think about it :^)

[all-things-normaler]

Can you give us more of your Norma/Normaler headcanons? Theyre fun ♡

Aw man, these couple of days have been low on me, so I've been a little dry in a general aspect, but we'll see.

The Onceler likes to surprise Norma with random tunes, thus he starts to do his very best to learn what are Norma's favorite songs for him to play to her! Oftentimes he asks her cautiously to not have suspicions, but after a while of doing it repeatedly successfully surprising the girl, Norma figured out on her own his strategy. Still! That doesn't mean she doesn't like it!

Can't put my finger on why, but those two seem to be the type to roll over hills and play with kites and that be their idea of a date.

This is my Norma and I apply the same qualities I have on her. Norma suffers of strawberry legs. They're dots that appear sometimes on your legs, thighs, buttocks, etc. Norma has them on her thighs and they look like freckles in a way! She hates them, but Onceler finds them endearing and compares them to his own freckles!

Norma misses Onceler's freckles when the winter comes. In case you didn't know, freckles tend to appear the most in higher heat temperatures!

Despite the clumsy appearance, The Onceler has had a lengthy record of injuries back at the barn and in his previous job. Therefore he knows how to treat them rather good on his own. He once used a thneed to help Norma with a nasty bruise with a lot of things in his med kit and he wrapped it around her leg like a gauze!

People who knew Helen would never believe that she grew up from parents that had not the best care for hygiene. Onceler was a farm boy, Norma was always falling and tripping on the ground. He was dirty from pastry flour, she was accidentally with hamburger grease stains on her uniform's skirt. Helen grew up in a restrictively clean environment than these two did (but of course, Normaler's had actual air.) ending up in a woman with a extreme dislike for stains and dirt.

Norma didn't give birth to her child alone. She was surrounded by friends. Normaler's relationship got so BAD by the end of Onceler's career that they were distanced enough for people to doubt their unity together. Norma decided to lie that they broke up years ago for the greater good of her daughter. Norma didn't want for Helen to go through undeserved judgement from lousy decisions of her father. But allegations were always there by the end of the day.

Onceler always wanted to be a father in a way to honor his own. We know how this ends.

Norma never wanted to repeat the same steps of her mother. Being a single mother with her child, but here she was, using the same lies her mother used to tell her about her father now to Helen.

Call it genetic trauma from Onceler, but Helen has a ridiculous distaste for tomatoes! Even if her idea of tomatoes were a gelatinous thing, just hearing the word alone made her gag.

[all-things-normaler]

ok now give us YOUR Normaler headcanons

Haha! Now this sounds threatening... Let's see. I'm going to try and mention headcanons I haven't said before.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

1. I definitely believe that after the events of the movie, somehow Norma and The Onceler reunited and gave each other another chance. Even if there's the slimmest chance of not working it out, they have to be around each other a lot, mostly for the well-being of Ted!

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

2. Now, back to the "past". I think Normaler is a lot like the main couple of Hairspray. Conventionally attractive skinny guy x adorable chubby girl! Norma has a lot of self-issues around her figure, and sometimes doesn't believe it when The Onceler says that he loves her the way she is, but when the anxiety stops spiking up... Norma finds it so refreshing and even soothing to find a guy like The Onceler to like her more than just her appearance.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

3. Norma constantly makes fun of The Onceler's country mannerisms. His speech, habits, etc. But it's not to mock him! She actually finds it adorable. She would often compare him to the attractive protagonists of country movies and say he's better.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

4. Norma has horrible reflexes, and by horrible I mean, amazing ones. One time The Onceler tried to playfully scare her and all he received in return was a punch in the face. Of course, she apologized after, but The Onceler essentially blamed himself for causing this event.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

5. Height difference comes with its perks and disadvantages. Norma once tried tickling The Onceler and it ended up wrong. His elbow hit her in the face. (I guess they're hand in hand now!) Seeing her tear up out of pain was too horrible. It's like stepping on your puppy's paw! He's never forgave himself for that.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

6. The Onceler is a playful asshole, so he often saw Norma struggling to reach something and instead of helping at first, he instead makes it go higher.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

7. Norma has the pants in the relationship, but this is common knowledge at this point, right? When Norma gets mad, it's like the whole planet is shaking and the ground is breaking. You do NOT want to make this woman mad. Even Onceler in his Greedler era was cautious and did his best to hide the mess he's done.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

8. Onceler loved to spoil Norma so much, and it's usually through food and serenades. When he turned rich, this translated through all sorts of items... clothes, perfumes, etc.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

9. One of Norma's biggest dreams was to travel the world, and The Onceler was once a traveler before arriving to Greenville, so they share that passion. They promised themselves to travel the world, especially after marriage, but that never became a thing after the events of the movie happened and Onceler isolated himself. Even without him, Norma never got to accomplish this, because then the wall around now-called "Thneedville" became a thing. Hopefully once they reunite as cute grandparents they get to fulfill that dream!

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

10. Older Normaler are passionate more than ever about nature, and with the help of Audrey and Ted, they start this project about making a greenhouse! All sorts of flowers, fruits and vegetables are in there! Sometimes The Lorax visits.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

11. Norma likes to nickname The Onceler a lot... And it's not Oncie! From the classic "Once" we go to "cowboy" "country-boy" "rockstar", "daddy long-legs" and so on.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

12. Both of these idiots are incredibly strong. We've seen The Onceler in the movie, and a bit of Norma in her old age! Onceler used to underestimate Norma's strength due to her size (reasonable) but she constantly proves him wrong by tackling him to the ground and winning arm wrestlings with him always.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

13. The Onceler absolutely adores Norma's beauty mark.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

14. The Onceler has this habit of humming everything even without music, especially when concentrated and Norma thinks it's the sweetest thing.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

15. Piggybacks. Always. It started as a friendly request of Norma so she could reach for truffula fruit in the valley, but it ended up being more fun than expected.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

16. She's a dancer at heart. He's a musician, what's there more to say? Helen's actual love for disco is tied to them, and Helen used to attend a lot of roller disco events! Ted's skateboard skills and bike skills come from her... (Norma and Helen) And I like to think Ted is a bit of a tech/inventor genius, and that certainly comes from The Onceler.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

17. The Onceler has enough strength on his arm to make Norma casually hold herself with her legs and go down like a possum.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

18. I like to think that their attraction was accidental and that the tension just built up out of the fact they're very sarcastic, witty and awkward individuals.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

19. In any sort of ground that Norma can skate in, that's her main way of transportation around The Onceler to actually share the same speed! Those long legs are too fast! And Onceler, always, is so enamored of the way she gracefully swirls and moves.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

20. The Onceler at first had a really rough time with his money and food. So Norma a lot of times actually snuck out food out of the diner she worked at and had lunch and breakfast with him together. If she had extra money to actually buy something for herself (most money was to pay the bills and help her mother) she'd use it instead to buy cans and food for The Onceler. Seeing his happiness and well-being was the best she could've had at the moment. Momentarily, eventually The Onceler told her to stop doing this out of guilt of what he knew of her situation at home! Plus, the thneed business was going to soon boom in.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

21. The Onceler doesn't hate bell-bottoms for no reason. He had to witness Norma using them because they were all in and she tripped while rollerskating, and the results weren't pretty. Before that, he even considered wearing them, but then it turned into somewhat a very irrational hatred.

ೋ❀❀ೋ═══ • ☘️ • ═══ೋ❀❀ೋ

22. And lastly... And this is more to finish this post in a nice number, I love to think THE song for these two is "Lovefool" by The Cardigans and "Wannabe" by Spice Girls.

[all-things-normaler]

onceler and Norma being a iconic 2000s ship where the Onceler is obsessed with rock is my only dream

Yes! We know he's soooo emo!!

[all-things-normaler]

(I hc this during the 1950-60's)

Norma was one of those roller skating waitresses for a diner/restaurant. One day while The Onceler was in Greenville and Onceler went out to eat to celebrate his first Thneed Sale going well. Norma just had happened to be his waitress and it was Love at first sight for them. Normas shift had ended and The Onceler had invited her to sit with him, the two love birds shared a milkshake and were talking about their interests. That was pretty much their first date and how they met!

If you want me to I can make a Mini fanfic of this.

My Norma is actually a roller skating waitress as well! <3

[all-things-normaler]

i like to think that the Onceler really likes kissing Norma's face!! He gives her loud, long, dragged out kisses and she loves it so much

Especially because it's chubby he loves peppering it with kisses!

[all-things-normaler]

i think norma is alt - she loves all things goth, punk and emo, even in her old days, when she looked like your average grandma

Alt norma sure is something... I see her mostly wearing bohemian clothes ngl!

[all-things-normaler]

The Onceler was raised very religiously while Norma was atheist - this made their relationship weird until Norma decided to be very gentle and him, which ended up with him kissing her hand - he was to scared to go further until she kissed his lips which started their relationship for real

I personally see Onceler as someone who's not extremely religious, but does believe in an idea of Heaven and Hell. I do see him being extremely sheepish around Norma, but that's just because his personality calls for it! I do think he probably got raised with religion, because, you know... countryboy!

[all-things-normaler]

the onceler worshiped norma with all his being; singing to her, kissing her and telling her romantic things

these moments made the break up harder for norma

To see someone so loving turn into what Greedler is must be extremely heartbreaking, especially with the hc that Ted is Onceler's grandson.

[all-things-normaler]

"Onceler carries Norma!" "Onceler carries Normas to kiss her!" NO, NORMA CARRIES ONCE-LER 😈

lmao, wouldn't he be too heavy!? 😭

[all-things-normaler]

Onceler with Helen vs Norma with Helen

Basically yeah, but overall I believe Norma is a great mother!

[all-things-normaler]

(TW:ANGSTY AND ABUSE)

(HEADCANON)

So to me Norma is like a wild, outgoing girl who's always trying to face the bright side of any situation shes in. Well I have a theory that before she dated The Once-ler she was in a abusive relationship with a guy before. So we all know the scene where the thneed lands on the girls head and she quickly started getting attention, one of the people who had been complimenting the lady (I don't think the blonde lady is Norma by the way) was a guy who had said, "Hey, cool hat.." He looks like he could be Helens biological father. The guy had most likely got Norma pregnant and when he found out she was he had left her. I think this guy had abused Norma in a bunch of different ways (emotional/mentally, physically, and sexually) he would pretty much always hurt her and yell at her just being straight up abusive. Norma had tried many times to leave him before but it just seemed like he knew that. So he would just fake love her to reel her back in. Anyways The Once-ler and Norma most likely met after Helen was born but Normas parents were kind enough to take care of Helen. When Norma and Once-ler we're friends a few months into their friendship Norma introduced Once-ler to Helen. Of course the same night Helen and The Onceler met him and Norma were hanging out and curiosity killed the act and The Once-ler asked that if Norma had a boyfriend since she had a kid. Norma tells him that he broke up with her when he found out she was pregnant (Even though he got her pregnant) and how he was very abusive towards her. She had told him acting the way she was (basically very Extroverted and happy) was a coping mechanism to her to forget her past with him. The Once-ler was very different from him he was kinder and very patient with her and respected her a lot. When The Once-ler and Norma started dating (then getting married a few years later) Once-ler had stepped in to be Helens father. Even if he wasn't her real dad he wanted to treat her as his real daughter. Helen loved him so much she always loved playing with him and hugging him.

(To me this is part of an AU where the once-ler still managed to get rich and successful of his thneed without listening to his mom by chopping down the trees)

Now that's a different and interesting take + twist of what we're used to see, great job!
