Yessss, Singed, my mad scientist Papa!
He loves when you help him with experiments
Like when you have an idea for an experiment he'll put aside all his beakers and other stuff to immediately help you with your idea
Definitely the kind of papa that struggles to show love in the typical ways
He won't be very good at like baby talk and cuddling but he'll read you books and tell you when you did good
He struggles with human connection so he treats it more like a science
He'll keep detailed notes on things like your favorite foods and toys
If one of your toys ever breaks he'll immediately fix it without you even having to ask
He was so worried you'd be scared of him at first. He takes a lot of care to hide as much of his skin as possible
He was also so worried about giving you forehead kisses at first since he lost his lips but you love them even if they feel different
I do think he has some strict boundaries around his late daughter
He never told you about her
One time you found her old stuff and started playing with it and he got very cold and asked you stop touching her things
— caregiver ! singed from arcane headcannons !! ( request from anon )
loves teaching you about the sciences and the math. shows you almost everything he learns
is willing to do anything for you, tries his hardest to keep you safe from the horrors of the under city, tries to shield you from his dirty work and is connections to silco
likes to be called ' dad ' , ' papa ' , and ' sir ' or ' mister '
you remind him a lot of his daughter which is why he becomes so attached to you and agrees to be your caregiver
is also a teacher caregiver
doesn't have a lot of time to play usually, but tries to be around when he's not focused on work, especially at night when he puts you down for bed
is better with bigger kids than the smaller ones, kinda awkward with newborn regressors, best with teen regressors
