things we know about hunk canonically that aren’t food jokes:
got into the garrison which is the top space program in vld verse for earth and got in as an engineer
is super smart. built the tracker for the blue lion in s1
empathetic. forged thru his own debilitating anxiety about being dragged into a war to help save the balmerans. also suggests he has a strong sense of morality
described as the ‘friendliest and kindest member of the team’ according to his wikia
also the strongest of the team after allura
has learned how to pilot the yellow lion despite not being a pilot or training for it holy shit
headstrong and not scared to stand up for his own opinion. immediately caught onto rolo and nyma being suspicious and spoke up about it despite the rest of the team wanting to be friendly w them. won’t just go w the flow and will call bullshit
the above also implies a v good sense of character and judgement from hunk and that’s he’s v good at reading ppl in general
is the most realistic. points out dangers in certain scenarios and probably has his head on the straightest after shiro
a v quick study and good marksman! his aim w his bayard is probably best after lance’s
probably v well versed in xenobiology bc he can?? make human tasting food?? out of alien food?? magic man
canonically a badass engineer who can figure out advanced alien tech and work w it despite it being lightyears ahead of what earth tech he had access to before
incredibly loyal. wanted to be the leader w yellow as his lion instead of the actual black paladin
does actually have a wicked sense of humor and is quite goofy himself
reads ppl’s diaries, would not want to cross
a good diplomat seeing as he (+lance) were able to make negotiations w alien leaders w/o allura being there in s3
wants to make the mice a mouse shower??? wow!!!
values his teammates a lot
please feel free to add!
