headcanons for stefan julío egnacío mcgriddy
to preface this, because i do worry, i am half mexican, so some of this IS me projecting people i know and my own experiences
grew up in jémez pueblo, new mexico
he has a high school sweetheart named lucina elena
his family owns a wheat farm
he's been helping with the farm since he was a kid and as he got older his back started hurting more and more but he toughens it out
he's great at soccer, but he LOVES football
he's the shortest of his brothers
he got his height from his mama and she wishes he got more from her
he's the oldest of his brothers so he's supposed to be the secondary man of the house, but since he's so short, his younger brother (the second oldest named maricio) took the spot
chose to go by "steve" during the walk that way he would experience less racism in case it happened
since he's often called "not manly enough" he signed up for the walk to PROVE he was a man but the minute he got his acceptance letter he started freaking out
his hat is actually his dad's
his dad gave it to him before the bus pulled up
and before stefan got on, his dad pulled him into a tight hug and told him how proud he was of him and how much he loved him
it's the only time stefan saw his dad get teary eyed
@collie-parkers-carbine also found that his culture has these friends!!!!
his dad doesn't show his emotions a lot, but this is part of how his dad shares his love: through his work
his mama used to sing this to him as a kid and when he was on the walk, he would say it often, always under his breath
he LOOOOVES dancing!!!!!!!
he has special cowboy boots for when he goes out!!!
he spent a lot of money on them, but he saved for a while
his wish would have been for his family's farm to actually be their own again, instead of the state's
he would have used the money to get him and his gf a house, not far from the farm, just so he could keep helping
