♡ hq boys as things my crush did that made my heart go brrrr
little things the hq boys would do if they were crushing on you, based on my irl experiences
a/n: sometimes when ur locked up in ur parents house for 8+ months during a pandemic all there is to do is to think about the last boy u severely caught feelings for but u don’t really like him like that anymore so instead u project it all onto 2d boys :) hope u enjoy !
++ sees u on the street on the way back from a party and literally screams ur name and runs to pick u up & swing u around in his arms (also falls down later)
BOKUTO, hinata, noya, terushima
++ u give him a lil encouraging scritch on his back when he’s nervous & when u pull away he’s like “your hand on my back felt nice”
i’ve been silent on this for a while but i have to say it...... there’s no way atsumu didn’t have to attend band rehearsals to pull that cutoff stunt every time he serves. he probably had to beg the inarizaki band director multiple times to let him do it. and yet he still cuts them off mid-measure like a fucking bastard. every. time.
omg ok so obviously OSAMU is an infused cooking king. he likes to mess around & be creative with it, but he also loves a classic weed brownie—and he likes to make them strong.
to be fair, he does warn ATSUMU every time that he should only start with a quarter or half at the most—but every time tsumu takes that as a challenge and eats the whole fuckin brownie at once. always gets fucked up beyond comprehension. he never learns.
samu should probably stop enabling him, but unfortunately, it’s hilarious.
100% all based on true events, most of which experienced by me or my friends || tw drugs, stupidity
underestimated the strength of the edibles & had to cancel plans bc they were in the fetal position for five hours ➤ akaashi, hinata, tsukki, iwaizumi, kenma, osamu
first time ever smoking was a massive hit out of a grav bong at a party, disassociated so hard they had to call their mom to pick them up ➤ asahi, tanaka, yamaguchi, ennoshita, oikawa
took an edible while on cold medicine &thought they had been transported to an alternate universe where everyone was trying to murder them, blacked out for several hours & woke up at home ➤ suga, kuroo, yaku
burned off an eyebrow while trying to light a bowl ➤ tendou, terushima, daichi
when they were first learning how to use a bong they thought you blew into it, did this at a party & got water everywhere ➤ bokuto, kageyama, ushijima, goshiki
visited a legal state/country & went nuts at the dispensary, completely forgetting that they are not allowed to bring any of their purchases back with them ➤ noya, lev, atsumu
+bonus: the good judy who knows how 2 smuggle weed on a flight & helps ➤ suga, kenma, osamu (but instead of helping he tells atsumu he’ll “help get rid of it” and proceeds to smuggle it all back for himself)
hq characters & what they’d be like as musical theatre boys - what they’re good at, what kind of shows they book, how they are to work with, roles they’d play, etc. | starring: sugawara, oikawa, bokuto, kuroo, tendou (+ tsukishima, kenma, akaashi)
for weeks my head has been full of hq!MT boys, inspired by over a decade of being a theatre kid, and @karasimpno has only enabled my debauchery. these are just a few of my faves, but i have more theatre boys where this came from so if this doesn’t flop maybe i will post more hehe
SUGAWARA [tenor] this bitch is SO talented it should be illegal and he books like crazy. nothing like a pretty soft boi with the voice of an angel in musical theatre <3 not really a dancer but moves very well, also can act the house down like you think he’s this basic MT boy but then it turns out this mf has range and is not afraid to use it. will go from playing the sweetest, most charming leading man to a complex, terrifying villain, and the whiplash will make you fall in love with him. a dream to work with, obviously. very strong with classical text as well. his ability is frankly terrifying and far too powerful. the type of boy you cold read with once at a callback and never see again, but playing opposite him for those 2 minutes is enough to make you think about him for the rest of your life
lucas in the addams family, anthony in sweeney todd, the princeton/rod or nicky/trekkie/bad idea bear track in avenue Q, the emcee in cabaret PLS
OIKAWA [tenor] let’s be real oikawa already has an MT personality and it’s the worst kind. he thinks he’s rachel berry but really he’s kurt. he still books though bc he’s pretty and sings like an angel~ he can move really well and his jazz/MT style dancing is very strong, can also tap a little but it’s like barely enough to get by. his acting is kinda mediocre but his stage presence is out of this world and he’s hot so it doesn’t rlly matter, he stays booking leading men & disney princes left and right. truly is very talented at what he does, he’s just so annoying about it and constantly fronting all these skills he does not have, like he keeps trying to put leading lady songs in his book in their original key which is just.... not what those pipes are built for girl. bringing a whole new meaning to the nickname “flattykawa”
fiyero in wicked, pippin in pippin, conrad in bye bye birdie, aaron samuels in mean girls, joseph in joseph & the amazing technicolor dreamcoat, just all the basic mt boy shit
BOKUTO [baritone, tenor, everything in between, HIS RANGE] an absolute star. all-around amazing dancer (those muscles aren’t just for show babyyy) but especially tap and partnering (imagine him just lifting u.. god) powerhouse vocals across the board, his diaphragm is insane. he’s the type of MT who is always yelling even when they aren’t on stage, not even aware of it he’s just loud asf. always spitting everywhere too. no one is safe. acting is probably his weakest point just bc he doesn’t have a lot of versatility style-wise, but in no way is he bad at it i meannnnn have u seen how expressive and energetic that man is?? he does literally any golden age musical comedy leading man soooo well and is a blast to work with, such posi vibes & the character choices his himbo brain comes up with are so silly they’re genius
don lockwood in singin in the rain, gabey in on the town, bobby in crazy for you, jimmy in nice work if you can get it, robert in drowsy chaperone, will in oklahoma!
KUROO [baritenor] one of those fuckers who started doing theatre by accident, and immediately started booking out the wazoo with no training because he’s naturally talented and hot. i hate him so much. has that “idgaf i don’t have to try” aura about him, but his work ethic is actually?? really good??? once he starts learning more he really does put the work in. has that feeling of ease in his stage presence & good instincts that make up for his lack of training, plus his vocals have no right sounding that good on their own wtf. fucker thinks he’s frank sinatra, and honestly, it’s criminal how good he is at golden age material when most of what he books is contemporary bc of his dumb hair he’s not exactly a dancer but like…. bitch can move. plus he’s got body so that helps him a lot. mostly books leads anyway because that’s just how it goes when ur a hotboy with charm and talent. also he can fieRCE classical text??!?? (hint: it’s bc he’s a nerd) just stop being talented already jesus
melchior in spring awakening, sky masterson in guys & dolls, demetrius in midsummer, BENEDICK IN MUCH ADO PLS I NEED IT FOR MY HEALTH
TENDOU [countertenor] kicks ass at everything like he’s so talented and so versatile. vocals are insane, he has mad range and can do any number of character voices/impressions/dialects/what have you. his falsetto is unmatched (nice try flattykawa). we been knew his instincts are killer - character acting, comedy, improv, clown, mime, devised/alt theatre, contemporary MT, golden age MT, classical text you name it he can slay it all. his resume is so chaotic. he can body a super intense scene too, i feel like he trained in meisner & got traumatized from it and for a while he had an issue with getting too into character & doing crazy shit bc it was “method,” but eventually learned better<3 excellent mover, used to be a trina ballerina so his technique always shocks people even though he’s been out of practice for a long time (the dance world can be toxic and he was over it, so he yeeted all the way out of there a while ago). all around a wild human being with the ability to transform into numerous other wild human beings, creatures, abstract concepts, etc.

----------------------
+BONUS: NOT MTs
characters who have zero MT energy but still fit elsewhere in the theatre world:
TSUKKI is a sound tech who is mean to performers esp during sound check, has a particular vitriol against MTs (except yamaguchi)
KENMA is an ASM who rarely gives a fuck, also does lighting & projection design. doesn’t hate MTs like tsukki, but their energy is usually a lot for him so he tends to avoid
AKAASHI is a playwright & dramaturg, but he used to act and can recite shakespeare on a dime, sonnets, soliloquys, whatever ur heart desires <3 may also play an instrument and sometimes writes lil songs but he doesn’t flex them bc he’s shy bby
