Bigby Wolf General Dating Headcanons: Pt2
Part 1 Here
🌙 Bigby prefers to not go back to his apartment once you two have been together for awhile. Especially if your apartment lies outside of the Woodlands. It actually feels peaceful at night when he doesn't hear his office phone ringing from his tiny apartment.
🌙 It's a plus for Colin too, the pig basically gets his own pad that Bigby sometimes returns to when he's working on a long case and just wants to crash nearby.
🌙 Bigby really likes getting your opinions when it comes to cases. Even if you don't fancy yourself to be on the side of Fabletown's ridiculous laws, Bigby likes to have another set of eyes from the outside. There's been times where you've pointed out little details that steer Bigby in the right direction.
🌙 Bigby likes to visit you at work, especially if you don't work at the Business Office or around the Woodlands. It gives Bigby an excuse to leave the dilapitating apartment building and go outside for some fresh air. There's bonus points if you work at a mundy job with no other fables.
🌙 Speaking of mundies, he often takes some pointers from mundies in the media when it comes to date ideas. If it were just up to Bigby, a majority of your dates will be spent in either his apartment or yours with the rest being walks around New York City's definition of "nature." Even if the dates may make him a bit uncomfortable, he's gonna take you out.
🌙 He has literally punched other Fables for you. Bigby doesn't take kindly to people messing with you or even pissing you off. So when some lowlife decided it would be best to put their hands on you to shove you out of their way, Bigby made sure they were seeing stars and chirping birds when he was done with them.
🌙 Bigby has a pretty mean jealousy streak. It's not that Bigby doesn't trust you, fuck that. He absolutely trusts you. It's the wolf inside of him that doesn't trust anyone else. You're his. He doesn't like it when people mess with his things and especially his lover.
🌙 Bigby tends to be... straight forward with some things when it comes to being romantic. Bigby isn't a subtle type of guy, so when he gets you something like a bouquet of flowers, he straight up plops them into your hands. It's just Bigby's way of showing affection.
🌙 He knows when you're holding something back and he definitley knows when you're lying. He didn't become the "renowned" sheriff he is today by letting shit slide. He won't force it out of you if it's something that's actually private, but if it's dangerous to you or others, he will try to pry. He wants to help, he wants to keep you safe.
🌙 Just the thought of you getting hurt is enough to have his claws aching to come out. It makes his blood boil just thinking of all of the Fables that can use you as a way to get straight to him. If anything were to happen to you, Bigby doesn't know what he'll do, but it's something that would for sure uproot his position as sheriff.
🌙 His new favorite thing is to go out to popular mundy bars and make out in either a dark corner or the janitor's closet. It started when you went with him to find a Fable selling drugs to mundies when it turned raunchy when the fable never showed. Bigby didn't think he'd like it, but holy shit does he find himself a fan.
🌙 Speaking of bars, Bigby knows your exact drink order by heart and whether you prefer fruity one day or straight liquor another. If he had to say what his exact love language is, it's picking out a good spirit to share between the two of you.
🌙 Do not take this man shopping. He will not be helpful in the way you want him to be. Everything you try on will just have Bigby saying you look perfect and not giving you actual opinions. It's not that he doesn't want to so he doesn't hurt your feelings, it's because that's all he sees you as.
🌙 Bigby doesn't like doing any of the Remembrance Day shit, but now that he's with you, he's very much able to tolerate it. It makes a smug grin spread on his face when your name is announced with him that makes a lot of Fables turn heads.
🌙 Bigby is not a dancer. He often jokes that he has two left paws, sometime four, and he's not joking. The Big Bad Wolf has some big feet and if he's not careful, you're getting your poor feet stomped on by accident. Bigby often has to watch his feet - literally - so he doesn't accidentally hurt you. Much to his displeasure, it often looks like he's looking down your front.
🌙 Bigby does not like the idea of you meeting his family. Especially his father. Just the mention of The North Wind makes him bristle much less acknowledging his six other brothers. If his mother were still around, he always says that she would've loved meeting you, though.
🌙 Bigby feels a lot more confident in himself as both a man and as the sheriff. Bigby didn't seem like the type to second guess himself, but fuck are there times where he really stumps himself and doesn't believe in his own abilities to solve crimes. But since he's been with you, he found himself no longer rethinking his investigations.
🌙 He's used you as an alibi with the mundy cops, for sure. Bigby often labels himself as a "private investigator" when it comes to the mundy world because of the whole secrecy. You find it pretty comical how easily Bigby can turn the whole back around on the cops, especially if the 13th floor gets involved.
🌙 Bigby likes to cook with you- Let me rephrase that; Bigby likes being with you while you cook. He can't cook for shit besides a rare steak (and even then he somehow burns it), so he likes to stand with you in your kitchen and watch you while you cook. He'll help you however he can as long as it doesn't involve the stove, but he prides himself on being your taste tester.
🌙 Food would also be another one of Bigby's love languages. Just because he can't cook doesn't mean Bigby can't provide. You can often find yourself waking up to Bigby with a greasy bag of fresh and hot food from the local bodegas or coming home after a long day at work with his faithful Chinese food orders for you both.
🌙 He briefly found himself thinking one night of leaving with you. Leaving Fabletown, leaving New York City, maybe even leaving the country and going somewhere in Europe. Lots of woods and a place where people keep to themselves. It's the kind of peace and quiet Bigby yearns for with you, somewhere nice and cozy that you both can live comfortably for the rest of your unnatural lives.
