I really wanna know Bobby's backstory but my headcanon is he's the Psy of the KPDH world like
he was an idol, saw how shit the idol industry is, left and created his own company so he could give his girls total creative freedom and bodily autonomy
I also think he sometimes (rarely) releases songs like Psy but mostly focuses on Huntr/x
(also he's trans gay and ace and was the third Sunlight Sister before he came out <3333)
Omg this is one of my favorites! Bobby as a dad gives me brain rot. Fatherhood was meant for Bobby. I wanted to save him for last but I couldn’t wait. I finally finished this
Note: Please don’t attack me if we have differing opinions. Be respectful or don’t interact.
🧁 It was a rollercoaster ride for Bobby when his kids were born. He definitely tried to get the mom, nurses, and doctors to laugh while putting on the gown, gloves, mask, and wrapping a stethoscope around his neck. He may have tried to lighten the mood but inside he was a nervous wreck. Bobby’s a crier. He sobbed for each birth. Full on ugly crying.
🧁 Bobby wants a lot of kids, I’d say about 3-4, if not more than that. It doesn’t matter if they’re all girls, all boys, even number of both, odd number of both, he’s happy regardless. A baby around his chest, a toddler wrapped around his left leg, a seven year old putting icing on the fresh cupcakes out of the oven—that sort of chaos is Bobby’s bliss.
🧁 All of Bobby’s kids inherited his pretty freckles.
🧁 There’s no Bobby as a girl dad or a boy dad—he’s the same dad to all his kids: energetic, lovable, silly, and supportive. He’s just happy to be a dad. Period.
🧁 Bobby is the child-at-heart type of father. The type of father that loves to see his kids use their imagination, their creativity. The type of father that doesn’t see “weird” or “eccentric” kids. He sees children being children. He may be an adult, but his childlike sense of wonder and curiosity still flows through his veins.
🧁 Bobby’s eldest daughter’s named Paisley.
🧁 Chelsea designed the nurseries. Bobby helped a lot with ideas and quirks. They’re an amazing interior design team and Bobby thinks he may have a future in it if his bakery fails (it won’t).
🧁 Bobby has no problem at all checking on the baby during the night. He knows the drill. Even if he gets home late, even if he has to be up in three hours. He’s making sure his children are alright.
🧁 He named cupcakes after his children at his bakery.
🧁 Nap time isn’t just for kids in the McKenzie house. Bobby likes to join in because it gives him an excuse to watch cartoons and nap.
🧁 Bobby calls Gary a lot asking him for advice, telling him what curse word he taught his toddler to say, planning their next “dad’s day”, etc. They were best mates in the villa and it remained the same outside the villa. If they’re not texting, they’re FaceTiming.
🧁 You’re insane if you think each of his kids don’t get their own unique boops from him, complete with sounds.
🧁 Bobby makes all the kids’ lunches every day before school. Something different every day, too. Complete with a cupcake/cookie and a smiley face Post-It note from dad.
🧁 There’s always some kind of music playing in this house at all times, the genre varies from day to day.
🧁 Bobby sings “You Are My Sunshine” to his kids. With a guitar or without.
🧁 Bedtime stories are reserved only for Bobby. Sometimes he’ll read their favorite books, sometimes he makes the story up on the spot. But his favorite story to tell is “The Adventures of LongBob Cupcake.” He tells the kids that it’s based on true events.
🧁 The McKenzie’s (including his parents and sister) do go to Jamaica, once a year, to visit Bobby’s nan. Everyone looks forward to it.
🧁 Bobby never gets mad at his kids for throwing parties while he’s gone. All he cares about is the kitchen not getting trashed.
🧁 Bobby’s another loud and proud dad that attends every single activity for his kids. Definitely can hear him shouting over all the other dads, and he’s always front row center when taking videos. His social media accounts are flooded with his kids’ things.
🧁 Gary, Rahim, and Noah still hang out with Bobby. Bobby loves when everyone comes to visit because it gives him an excuse to bake and to try new recipes out on them. Gary eats anything, so really he tests the recipes on Rahim and Noah.
🧁 Bobby is the father that every kid dreams of having. He’s so loving, so accepting, so supportive of his children. He is never NOT proud of them.
There are so many Bobby pages on here that are amazing, but one in particular sticks out the most: @ravenadottir (currently on hiatus), and it can be found here. There’s all sorts of information/route guides/headcanons for Bobby. She even has an amazing fic for him as well (Paisley Cuddle is a must-read if you haven’t yet). 🖤
he’s 5’9, but closer to 5’10. i’ve always imagined him to be a sliiightly taller than Gary. so he walks around saying he’s basically 5’10
a total scaredy-cat, but would never admit to it
fidgety, always needs to keep his hands busy
Your hand is not yours anymore, it’s his
since his mum is scottish, i like to imagine her with light brown/reddish hair and freckles
his love languages is physical touch <3
his grades were probably 50-59% (C) sorry not sorry, but he wasn’t a straight A student
lacks some linguistic skills. tries really hard to learn more, but doesn’t get past a few phrases, which sucks cause he would love to learn Jamaican patois. he might be able to understand some of it, but can certainly not speak it.
he wouldn’t tell you if he was feeling down unless you progressively asked him about it :/
he’s not that into PDA. he loves showing you off and letting people know you’re with him, but he would get really flustered if you wanted to make out in public or something like that.
would rather eat sand than sit still and be silent for more than like an hour, probably less
Not sure where it came from, but I decided as a kid he took dance. I also decided his mom is a dance teacher.
He’s taught Alex moves in the garage before or after rehearsals since Alex wasn’t allowed to take dance.
He had a little sister and twin brother.
Probably played D&D as a kid. One of the boys had to have at some point.
Age 14-15 (8-9th grade) when he met the boys. He’s the oldest of the boys.
Born end of July probably.
I think he got a mustang whether it’s something he saved for or he was given on his birthday. The boys think they are hot shit when they ride in it.
He has openminded and accepting parents. They probably were Hippies in like late 60s/70s. Just like the idea of him being raised by hippies.
He gave up meat when his mom decided to present the idea of becoming a vegetarian. Most of his family lasted a week. Him and his sister lasted longer. He no longer could even think of eating meat especially hot dogs after his friends died.
He likes keeping things clean. Messes make him anxious sometimes
Knows ASL
He is suave and good with the ladies, but he’s, as punk as he is, a huge nerd.
He’s definitely kissed Reggie.
He’s either the bands token straight or he’s bi.
Likes 80s RomComs as well as The Breakfast Club.
He’s always been quiet for the most part. Surprises people when they talk to him and he holds good conversation. Or it surprises people when they come across how quiet he is alone vs how flirty and loud he can be when the band is with him
He still doesn’t reach Luke or Reggies level of outgoingness most of the time.
Self prompt: Bobby’s thoughts when Lurik enters the villa and they both take MC on a date.
This is fine. Two new boys! So cool! Awesome! Haha!
When he saw MC hanging back from the stampede, he didn’t know why he didn’t feel relieved.
He was especially uncomfortable when he saw the two eyeing MC
But hehey! Two new boys! Plaster on that grin, Bobbo! You’re completely okay! It’s not like you’re falling way too fast for MC. You met her five days ago! It definitely doesn’t feel like she’s the only one you could fall for here!
She received a text telling her that she’s going on a date with Henrik.
That’s completely ok! She’s not yours to begin with, Bobby! You have absolutely no right or claim to her whatsoever! For all you know, she could simply be tolerating your presence!
His brain was going haywire. This is exactly what he was trying to avoid on this show.
Pranks! Mask that insecurity with pranks!
Pranks! Yeah! He should switch Rocco’s and Henrik’s trousers! That makes sense even if they immediately find out that the trousers aren’t theirs and would probably switch back and dismiss it as a mistake by the staff.
When MC returns, he absentmindedly jogs to her because even if she was only gone for an hour he feels the need to be close to her. Oh shit, is she smiling? Did she have a great time?
Quick! Make it look like you’re completely unaffected! Don’t let her see that you’re so desperate for her attention! Grin!
“Did I miss anything while I was away?”
Nothing much, just me desperately hoping you’d stay with my sorry ass but honestly if I were you, I wouldn’t stick around. HEY OH HEY PRANKS!!
“Aren’t you a little bit interested in, like, how the date went or something like that?” she said, looking down. If he squints, he thinks it might even look like disappointment.
Holy fuck, could it be that she’s disappointed in him being unaffec-
She’s only asking to check if you’re ok with her pieing you off for Henrik and you SHOULD be totally ok with that! You coupled up yesterday! Don’t put pressure on her to stay with you.
“Not right now! Time is of the essence! Come on!”
Look at you, Bobby! So fun and carefree! No trouble in the world! Everything is fun and cool and happy!
She receives another text asking her to go on another date with Lucas and he just deflates. It’s fucking hopeless. “Wow! Go, you!”
That’s right, wow go you indeed, Bobby.
She refuses to go to the second date and he felt relief wash over him. She was just about to decline the text--
Encourage her!! She’s too nice to accept right in front of you! Just to see if she really wants to stay with you! If she wants to stay with you, she’ll reject the date even when you insist.
“You serious? You should go!” he blabbed.
For the first time, she frowned at him.
“Bobby. We’re coupled up. You shouldn’t be encouraging me to go on dates with other boys.”
P A N I K.
Think of something! She’s blowing our cover! Quick!! Think of something sweet!! Anything!!
“Well, just going on a date with a bloke doesn’t mean you’re going to immediately fall deeply in love and forget about me, right?“
Nice save! I’d believe that if that was told to me. Now, let’s see if she bites.
“This is great! I can’t believe I get to go on two dates with them! Just gonna go check my make up before I go!”
She leaves before he could even say good bye.
Good job, Bobby. Now you did the exact opposite of what you wanted to accomplish.
lmao guess who went on yet ANOTHER playthrough trying to romance anyone else BUT Bobby. But really, I was so turned off when he did this. It really felt like Bobby was pushing MC away.
If Love Island were gender-of-choice, and had lgbt option, it would be a wonder. Imagine Bobby with male MC, both wearing kilt.
It would be great! I can definitely see Bobby being bisexual. @bubblybabynailpolish actually has posted some stuff about Bobby x Noah and it checks out!
I don’t know if you’ve played s3 yet (it’s not very good lol) but one thing they did get right was a lot more islanders were openly bisexual which was great to see.
Bobby’s kilt has to be one of his best outfits of all time 😌 and yes he would love if his boyfriend/husband wore one too!😳
