Can I please have a headcannon for dark and anti separately. What would they do if their S/O was a gamer and is very immersed in video game culture. Like would they play games with them and if they did what types of games. Or would they rather watch. Would they get mad if they are being loud with their online gaming friends. Would they understand them when they use gamer slang like sus, one pump, gg, afk. I'm sorry if I'm asking to much.
Gamer Kings | Darkiplier & Antisepticeye HCs
Summary: Both Darkiplier and Antisepticeye have a gamer S/O and this is how they react
Though his counterpart, Mark, may have a passion for video games and videography, Dark did not inherit that trait. It’s not as if he hates them, he would simply prefer to avoid them whenever he can. Honestly, he prefers a good board game to a digital one.
Knowing this, it was a surprise to his brothers when Dark chose a dedicated gamer to be his S/O—he doesn’t tolerate rumors about them or his relationship, but everyone still wonders how they ever ended up together. It surely couldn’t have been chance or a coincidence!
Dark would rather watch his S/O play their video games than play them himself. He has talent for it, yes, but he finds several of them irritating and pointless. He doesn’t understand some of the objectives and would probably rage quit more than most gamers because of this.
He would prefer his gamer S/O to try and keep things a bit quieter, if only so he can focus on his own work in another room. He understands that video games are important to his S/O and would never forbid them from enjoying what they love, but he does appreciate the silence now and then.
Sometimes, he’ll try and finish some paperwork while his S/O plays their games. It’s a little distracting, but he prefers their company over the noise, so he’ll hang out with them often. He’ll even make comments that make the S/O’s viewers, if they have any, laugh and spam the chat.
As for the gamer slang, he is completely and utterly confused when his S/O utilizes it. He has no idea what any of them mean; save for perhaps AFK, as he uses it when talking to his brothers online. Dark often has this confused, deer-in-headlights look about him whenever his S/O screams another gamer slang word.
Overall, Dark does not mind that his S/O is immersed in video game culture; in fact, he admires their passion for it and finds it adorable how they gush over their favorite games. He may not share it, but he loves them nonetheless and will go out of his way to ensure they are happy.
Anti adores video games, mostly because he enjoys causing glitches and problems for Jack. He loves causing chaos, even for his S/O, who often gets annoyed at his antics—sue him, he just loves seeing them all riled up!
If offered, or even if his S/O says no, Anti will absolutely play video games with his S/O. Though his favorites are by far RPGs, horror, and even a splash of worldbuilding. He won’t play Roblox or Fortnite, though. Too childish in his opinion.
He loves messing around in a multiplayer video game with his S/O. Anti is obsessed with their abilities and skills, as well as their company. Not a lazy Sunday afternoon goes by without the pair going at it in Minecraft, Call of Duty, or some random other multiplayer game.
Though he does enjoy them, he also loves watching his S/O play them by themself. He’ll crawl into their lap, head on their shoulder as he plays with his knife while watching them beat down on the newest boss or creature of legend. He adores them and loves watching their face contort into looks of surprise, rage, and elation.
Anti doesn’t care for the noise. Living with his brothers from time to time has numbed him to all levels of shouting, cursing, and muttering. In fact, he causes it most of the time. So for his S/O to start up screaming, he’s less than concerned. He’ll always check to make sure they’re alright, but otherwise he pays no mind.
Sometimes, Anti will go out and pawn the newest addition to a video game collection, but more so the action figures and collectibles. He knows his S/O’s favorite characters and will always buy them figurines. Expect gifts all year round; there’s never a month where he doesn’t appear with another two or three.
Anti does understand a little more of the gamer slang; even reciprocates the use of it. Whole conversations can consist of this vocabulary, leaving any visitors grasping for a sliver of understanding. In the end, Anti is a supportive boyfriend who absolutely adores his gamer S/O and does everything he can to show them his love and support.
As a gamer myself, this was an absolute treat to write! Thanks for the request; truly made my day. 😊
