Fanon Jabber reminds me a lot of fanon Floyd (twst) where people headcanon both of them as only caring about base pleasure and the moment you no longer interest them they drop you. However, like I discussed with Floyd, I don't think it's common for Jabber to get really interested in people in the first place. There's definitely a difference between interest and love when it comes to Jabber, and I think if Jabber has genuine feelings for you, you're his endgame.

The interoperation of Jabber as someone who only really cares about his desire for pain and excitement kinda presents him as someone who doesn't want genuine love and affection, and I think that's sad. Jabber wants to be cared for like everyone else, he wants attention and affection and for you to dote on him, he's kinda needy in that regard. He's kinda like a stray cat that bonds with you randomly and won't leave you alone, he gives you dead animals because he thinks you can't hunt for yourself, he's always close to you to the point where you forget he's there sometimes, he's loud and obnoxious when you don't pay him any attention. But foremost, he's really afraid that you'll leave him. You leave your shared room/home and he just thinks "this is it, they're finally leaving me", only for you to come back home and for him to be perfectly fine again.

Jabber likes pain. He likes the rush that comes with it. He doesn't like the idea of not being in control of that pain. It's fun fighting Zanka because Jabber always has the upper hand. Jabber doesn't like the idea that one day you'll no longer have any purpose for him and leave him, he doesn't want that type of pain. I do think that this can make him kinda anxiously avoidant, with him holding the "I'm gonna hurt them before they can hurt me" mentality, especially early on. But I think once he gets over this he's genuinely really sweet.

There's a moment where Jabber pours his heart and soul out to you, is raw and open about his fears and dreams, and that's when you know that he's being serious about his feelings. Like I mentioned with Tamsy, there are still classic Jabber moments, he has mood swings and outbursts, but I think these come from the difficulties of traversing a genuine relationship rather than him actually wanting to see you hurt or in pain.

Legs draped over Will’s thighs, leaning back into Hannibal’s chest as he held your hand in a gentle yet firm grip.

Their heads on either side of your neck, Will lapping at the flowing blood like he was starving while Hannibal let it stream into his mouth, licking the occasional stray drop. Once the initial sting subsided, it was actually rather ticklish.

He felt your grip falter in his hand and informed Will that you were done for the night, to which he nodded and began bandaging your wounds. They both knew you’d sooner pass out from blood loss than cut them off (which they made sure to scold you for), hence the hand system.

uh I feel like redrawing this already but I have more ideas with these two 👀👀👀👀👀👀

canon is what happens in the text. e.g. merlin tries to poison morgana

a headcanon is a fact that you have personally made up as an elaboration of canon. it is your invention. e.g. i think morgana and gwen had a teenage lesbian situationship before the events of canon. or, i think modern morgana would love evanesence.

an interpretation is how one reads the existing text. it is not an invented fact nor is it a headcanon, it is a reading. e.g. i think merlin tries to poison morgana out of misplaced self-hatred. or, i think that one line was delivered with suppressed malice and shows a nuanced relationship.

fanon is the general fandom’s accepted headcanons and interpretations that elaborate or recontextualize canon. e.g. merlin is a badass waif and morgana is a bitch.
