Tobi Mcknight sfw alphabet (x gn!reader)
a/n : hiii yall ! there we go with the tobi alphabet because i love my sleepless man
i did my best for this, and i hope you’ll like it, but i’m french and tired, and there’s probably a few mistakes left in this, even tho i reread through it a few times. i did my best to write it with a gn! reader, so lemme know if i did well !
also, i haven’t write anything since a year and a half and haven’t published anything for like 3 years ?? (im a wattpad fighter 😛) so its pretty much like im publishing for the first time again.
there’s a spoil for episode 5/6 at letter W, be aware if you haven’t finished the show !!
anyway, kiss kiss and enjoy !! <3
A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
Tobi is affectionate, don’t mistake him, but he is also constantly sleep deprived, which means he isn’t always in the mood for a lot of cuddle or watching a film together. However, he’s always making it up to you, by leaving small notes, or little gifts that he leaves on the nightstand or the kitchen table when he has an emergency at work. And he also never forget to send you a lot of messages when you’re apart, because it’s his way of showing that even tho he isn’t the best at words and showing, he deeply cares about you and loves you.
B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)
He probably is the "the blind leading the blind" typa best friend, always cheering on you and invested in whatever you are invested in. He’s the most supportive friend you can have, truly. He’ll listen to whatever you’re talking about, as long as you listen to him rambling about his passion for codes and all. Talking about computer, you probably met in school, during a techno class, where you couldn’t make yours work. He helped you and you became attached to the hip ever since then.
C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
He doesn’t always mean to cuddle, he wouldn’t, most of time, come to you and asks you to cuddle. But as soon as your in the same couch, or in the bed, he’s always reaching for your hand, laying on you, or letting you lie on him. He probably won’t admit it but he loves when you have your hand in his hair, tracing soft circles and massaging his scalp, and will whine if you stop before he fell asleep.
D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)
This man lives in the spare room of his coworker, never sleep, and you’re asking if he can cook when he lives on dried noodles ? He actually, would probably like to settle down, but don’t think he is ready for it. He knows he’s at work most of the time, and doesn’t have a well balanced life schedule. He barely even clean his room, and feed himself with Abby’s leftovers, but he’s well aware that he isn’t ready to live with you, and he doesn’t want you to be disappointed by his lifestyle if you settle down together. So at the moment, he likes living on his own, as long as your okay with it. He’s willing to change tho, but he prefers trying alone and then live with you when he knows his lifestyle is better and more suitable for you.
E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
I honestly don’t think he will be the one to break up, this man yearns for love AND I KNOW IT. If you ever break up it’s probably because he’s always talking about his computer’s things, and work take too much time for you, so you either would decide to end your relation or he would be too worried about you and decides that it’s better for both of you to go on your own paths. I also think you’d still have a good relationship after the breakup and wouldn’t be on bad terms.
F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
He is willing to commit, but as i said, he knows his lifestyle isn’t really suitable for a living together. However, after a few years if the both of you are still together and that he improved his domestic life, when you are a little bit older, he would probably like to get married. He doesn’t see it as an end by itself, but the idea of being forever bound with you makes him giggle and kicking his feet like a teenage girl.
G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
He is gentle, the most gentle ever, actually. He deeply cares about you and wants you to know it, even though he’s not the best at showing it. He’ll always do his best for you, taking care of you with small acts of service like holding the door for you, messily setting the table when you cooked, making you tea and buying you your favourite snacks. He’s also taking your hand, drawing small circles with his thumb on the back of it, whenever you are in a public space. It’s just how he can show you that he’s capable of gentle acts even tho you know he can, and he needs to prove it more to himself than you.
H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)
He likes to hug you when you’re cooking and facing the kitchen counter, so he can hug you from behind and burry his head in the crook of your neck. Most of the time, he will hug you from behind, because he likes how you can’t really see him being a bit weaker, if you know what i mean. He likes hugs the same way as cuddle, he won’t really ask for it, but likes it and will find a way to have some without having to ask you.
I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)
You both are still young, and probably started dating by the end of high school or early college years, so he probably said it really fast ? I also think you had built up a relationship before, being probably a friend to lover thing, so he had all the time in the world to develop his feelings for you, and actually know what he felt. I think that by three months, the "i love you" would have been said, probably after a romantic moment that wasn’t meant to be one at first.
J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)
Oh trust me he is a jealous guy, i know it. Not in a toxic way, but if someone’s looking at you too much, he’ll be getting closer to you, clinging by your side, not leaving your hand, just to show that he’s yours and nobody can take his place. And when you joke about his jealousy, he gets all shy about it, because he doesn’t want to admit it.
K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
Unlike cuddles and hugs, he’s more of a kissing guy. His kiss are always soft and loving, and he can’t choose where he likes to kiss you the most, because he love everything about you, and kissing is his way of showing the best. But he has a soft spot for kissing you in the neck, with a little smile that only him has the secret. When it comes to you kissing him, he loves when you kiss him in the corner of his mouth, because it feels both intimate and innocent. It’s also your way of taking him out of his codes and computer, when you try to get him to sleep or just away for his screen for a moment.
L = Little ones (How are they around children?)
Children like him. He doesn’t really love them back. Too much noise, too much dirt, yeah, really, he loves to pretend he’s not made to be around kids. But in fact, he can get real soft around them, even tho he’ll never admit it. He doesn’t admit being soft, actually.
M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
When he sleeps, you have two scenarios : either he’ll be up early as hell, and watch you sleep with a little smile, stroking your hair and probably getting out of bed to try to make the breakfast, or he’s sleeping till the early afternoon so, no morning.
N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)
He doesn’t sleep.
But when he does, he probably wants to fell asleep while holding you or being hold, i honestly think he prefers being held actually. He probably talks in his sleep and doesn’t have a really deep sleep, from his chronic lack of sleep, so he wakes up easily during the night
O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
He can’t really talk about his work, but for the rest, he’s just bluntly telling you things. He doesn’t really have any filters, he just says what he has to say. However, he may be a little longer than you could think to tell you things about himself that are more intimate, probably due to his anxious profile. So it’s like he will say some things really fast, and other will take more time, and you can’t understand how he sorts them, because you’re pretty sure saying that he sucked his thumb until he was 13 during the first week of dating is revealing a big part of his lore.
P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)
This man is patient, look where he works, he can’t afford not to be. But he can be upset when you’re making fun of him for any reason actually. He’ll start pouting and turn his back to you, but with a few kisses, he’s back at being all yours and madly in love with you. I will say that in big arguments, he is the one to be patient and try to understand what is really going on, and most of the time, he’s the first to apologise.
Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
He knows he’s the type to forget things, so he try to mark important dates in his phone calendar, or on notes that he loses and he remembers he wrote something but can’t remember what he wrote on it. Also, when you drop small information about what you like, wether it’s your favourite colour, flowers or shape of crisps, he’ll be noting it down somewhere, to make sure he can use these informations later.
R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)
He cherishes every moments he gets to spend with you, but he probably have a special spot in his heart for the night you both confessed. You were star gazing, in a spot a bit far away from London to see the sky better, even though, let’s be real, he was looking at you more than the stars. When you finally stopped talking about the stars and locked eyes with him, he got all shy and flustered that you caught him staring at you, but he will always remember how you just smiled and brushed away a strand of his hair, before letting your hand rests on his cheek. He will also always remember how his heart started racing, and the words, yes these words, "I think I really really like you" rolled of your tongue and the way he just nodded quickly, because he just lost the ability to talk at this exact moment.
S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)
He is protective of you, always trying to step up for you if something happens to you. But most of the time, he wont do anything infront of the person bothering you, and will rather try to hack them or ruin their internet reputation. Once, a man try to flirt with you, being really inappropriate, so he hacked his twitter and photoshopped him with furries and femboys and posted it. It’s his way, a bit special, i’ll admit, to venge you. He also loves when you’re protective over him. You’re in a bar and someone’s bothering the both of you, making fun of Tobi ? Oh you’re the person who stands up and argues, making everyone turns their head. The guy comes out of the bar with a broken ego and Tobi’s even more obsessed with you.
T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
He always tries his best for these occasions, leaving his green polo to something a bit more fancy, trying to surprise you with a good restaurant or a picnic with a good landscape on a sunny days, or even taking you out to the fun fair and winning you every plushies you want in the gripper machine. And when he forgets a special date, he always tries to make it up to you with small codes that shows cute animations, because he’s better with computers than words.
U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
He rarely sleeps, leading to these enormous eye bags. He runs his days on a really unhealthy coffee-redbull mix to stay awake on a daily basis, but this lack of sleep can make him grumpy sometimes, and he tends to show this grumpy side to you more than anybody else.
V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
He doesn’t care. He shaves, showers and washes his face, and you’ll never catch him do more. Well except when he’s taking you on a date or for a special occasion, these times, he always tries to be a bit more extra and search for his best shirt in his closet.
W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you)
Yes, definitely. He wouldn’t say it, but you means the world to him, and after losing his job, which was his passion, he only has you. He is madly in love with you and just cannot imagine his life without you.
X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)
He’s addicted to these offline games that you can have on your phone, and made you download it so you can play at the same time and compare your scores.
Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)
He really doesn’t want you to disrespect his passion for codes and computers. He knows he’s a nerd, but this is what he likes and if you can’t respect that, he probably won’t stay with you.
Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)
He always end up sleeping with his head on your chest, and sometimes even fully lying down on you, because he craves your touch more than he’ll admit and it shows in his sleep.

Have you seen Nightsleeper (2024)?
Yes
Partially
No, but I've heard of it
Never heard of it
General Tobi McKnight Headcanons part 1/?
A/N: Hopefully this is good! Enjoy!! I'll make another one when I think of more!
This man is so sleep deprived, it's gotten to the point where he nearly has insomnia and has to take a prescribed medication to sleep like Eszopiclone or something like that
I feel like he has ADHD and can't keep anything organized for the life of him even if he tries! His room and desk are probably so messy with random things. Since his job is so demanding, he doesn't have time to clean his room which probably has clothes everywhere
He definitely drinks black coffee. Since he's so sleep deprived, he probably doesn't have energy to make his coffee sweet and just drinks it black even if it's bitter. HOWEVER, when he has a day off and goes to a café or something, he'd order something fancy
He also probably gets energy drinks but I can see RedBull being his favorite
Like mentioned before, I feel like he has ADHD which makes him a constant anxious mess
He is SUCH an introvert. Like he's so quiet out in public and when someone is talking to him then he tries to avoid eye contact unless he's dating them
When Tobi actually does sleep, he probably has a small pile of stuffed animals in a corner that he chooses from to sleep with AGAIN unless he's dating someone and they're spending the night
Speaking of when he does actually sleep, he either wakes up SUPER HELLA early and spends the morning tech free since it's what he does for work OR he's sleeping in past noon and Abby ends up waking him up since he's her flatmate
Also since his job at the NCSC is super duper demanding and his sleep schedule is super fucked up, I bet he barely eats anything and feeds himself off of Abby's left overs or instant noodles like Ramen, box mac and cheese, etc.
He does try his best to keep up daily hygiene like showering, brushing his teeth, using deodorant, you know all the stuffs
He probably found some way to work from home when he's too sick to go into work or when Abby forces him to stay home
I feel like he has a cat even though he lives with Abby. He'd feed it every morning before work and maybe when he gets home if the cat ate all the food
In his room he'd have a cat tower and a box of cat toys and a (locked) cabinet that holds the treats
He probably has a little whiteboard on his bedroom door with a list of things to do so he doesn’t forget
A/N: Like I said before! I'll make more when I think of more! Plus I accidentally posted this early soooo yeah! Hopefully you enjoyed! I'll most DEFINITELY make more!
Desperately need my kids to go to sleep so I can finish binging Nightsleeper.
Absolutely visionary of the BBC to get Neil Breen to do Nightsleeper.
