Dragon Slayer Headcannons
β’ All if them have heightened senses of smell and hearing.
β’ When happy or comfortable they all "purr" but it's just a low, unconscious sound that comes from their throat so it doesn't sound like purring it's more like a gurgle.
β’ They all have large appetites and fast metabolisms so they also have to eat more often than regular people.
β’ If they are close to another Dragon Slayer and that Slayer has a 'mate', they will be protective over that person especially if the mate is not a also Dragon Slayer.
β’ Scents are really important to them all so they will try to scent their friends or mates even though they know almost nobody else can smell it.
Natsu is the most upfront about it, hugging, rubbing, and cuddling the people closest to him. Wendy is more shy but completes the process with hugs that are just a little to tight and last a little too long. Gajeel gets it done is sneaky ways, he just felt extra nice and happened to offer Levy his jacket. Laxus will pat his teammates on the back and let his hand rest on their shoulders or travel to cup the backs of their necks.
β’ They all have little animalistic habits that are everyday things. Natsu growls and hoards, Gajeel will mess with and fix people's hair, Wendy hasn't grown out of biting people when dealing with a lot of emotions, and Laxus will sniff people and also stand way to close. Sting and Rogue prefer sleeping near each other so they share a room; Rogue is also weird so he'll chew on himself when he's itchy while Sting will pant or let his tongue hang out. Erik hates cold weather and will always stand/sit in a sunspot.
β’ When the Slayers consider someone their mate, the mate will build a minor immunity to the Slayers magic type.
β’ Once they reach full maturity they do have a mating season where their sex drive is increased, along with their aggression levels. The mating season is different for each of them though and might happen at different times. The Slayers are possessive and jealous by nature so these weeks are messy and chaotic for everyone around.
