Any headcanons you have that separate red and blu team from tf2?
Hi and thank you very much for asking!! I'm dumb but I'm assuming this is asking what hcs I have that seperate the RED and BLU teams in TF2, so I'll be getting into it! Warning: lots of reading AAGS
For starters, they obviously have different names and personalities, but the difference is how they go about with it; RED team [with the exception of Spy] are very open with their real names and don't hide who they are because, why should they? They're literally employees assigned to kill other people and get to avoid permanent death as a bonus, they've got more to worry about than their public appearance to other teams. The most closed-off members would be Spy and Sniper as their occupations require them to be so, but apart from them, everyone else is quite extroverted!
BLU team, on the other hand... to say they're cautious is an understatement, because they have codenames, specific signals and gestures, goddamn BOOBY TRAPS, you get the whole shebang. They're all relatively reserved and closed off, even the BLU Scout, but thyy're actually quite close and open to eachother! While their... safety measures are a little over-the-top, it's not completely unreasonable. I mean, permanently losing your previous Medic and Scout to an uncalled ambush and a malfunctioning respawn system doesn't leave a good impression on you, does it now?
Each class also has little details and characteristics that differentiate them from their opposite counterparts, apart from their clothes and cosmetics. For starters, the RED Scout has blue eyes and short brown hair, while the BLU Scout's eyes are yellow and has his hair into a small ponytail. The RED Engineer's robot hand is his right, but it's the left hand for his BLU counterpart. RED Heavy is bald unlike the BLU Heavy, who is also an avid writer. The BLU Sniper wears a different pair of aviators and has a scar that runs across his face, that didn't heal after he was sent to respawn by the RED Spy. The BLU Medic is partially blind while the RED Medic has heightened vision due to literally surviving Satan. The BLU Demo has fabulous tied locks that would put Rapunzel to shame. The BLU Soldier has a pot for a helmet, a pickaxe for a shovel and is most likely clinically insane. The Pyros are virtually the same, except the BLU Pyro is probably depressed. The Spies are also quite similar, probably because they want to be able to replace eachother so they can backstab the other's teammates. [I'd get into detail more, such as names and behaviour, but this post would be too long]
Their routines are also different; on match-free days, RED usually stays active for most of the daytime from dawn to dusk, while BLU is primarily active from early afternoon to midnight. The RED base is located in a desert-like area by huge rock-like structures, and the BLU base is situated in a cold area. This is even weirder when you consider the fact that both bases aren't so far from eachother, almost being a 20-30 minute drive. Which is stupid, in RED Scout's opinion.
They also have different pets!!! RED Sniper could only wish he had a pet croc like his BLU counterpart does, but he's just as happy with his owl buddy Sir Hootsalot 🫶 BLU Engineer also has a mechanized cat, as a contrast to RED Engineer's robot dog.
I'd love to go more in-depth about all the differences I hc about both teams, but perhaps that will be for another post. In the meantime, I hope yall enjoy this as I haven't been active lately AGHHSGDF ty for asking again!!
