(gifs by me)
Couldn’t decide who fit it best LOL, so now you get all of them!
Pierce was the hardest to place, because if he likes you enough, he’ll totally help you do the homework (but he’s certainly not gonna be that cheerful about it)
encountered perhaps the funniest description of Boyd Holbrook today
And you know what? Entirely fair, if you seen some of his modeling photos!
ooh ooh ooh! what video game do you think the boyd boys would each enjoy?
Steve Murphy: Haha, so, here’s the thing. Steve isn’t much of a gamer, but Connie and Javi both persuade him to give Stardew Valley a shot because they think it’ll relax him. Steve is resistant, but once he starts playing he’s SO absorbed, which is… initially positive, but he gets so damn intense about it! He’s managing so many tasks! He’s trying to optimize his farm and his relationships! He’s gonna organize his whole fucking day! He LOVES this game, but it’s less a stress-release mechanism and more another way to channel his neuroticism!
Donald Pierce: Ooh, Pierce gets so into Red Dead Redemption. He loves exploring the open world, he loves the music and graphics, and most of all he loves playing as a take-no-shit, badass cowboy. He’s totally living vicariously through Arthur, and it hits him like a steel pipe when Arthur’s unexpectedly raped in RDR2.
Cap Hatfield: You know, I feel like I can see modern Cap getting into RuneScape, to the point where it’s a little hard for him to unplug! Go to sleep Cap! You have an 8am class tomorrow! But he loves the grind and the sense of slow, measured progression – he can be completely absorbed at a fishing spot for hours.
Clement Mansell: Clement’s a classic Call of Duty player! He loves blowing off steam by way of mowing through enemies and shit-talking 12-year-olds in the chat. He’s like, got his bong between his knees as he plays, taking covert little hits between the breaks in the action.
The Corinthian: Oh man, I feel like it’s Grand Theft Auto?? He loves the open world! He loves all the OPTIONS. There’s been times when he’s spent hours just wandering through the city, not causing even a bit of a stir, and then next time he boots it up he immediately sets off on a car chase that ends with 50 dead prostitutes, 100 dead police officers, and a stolen helicopter being rammed into a bridge. The Corinthian is shocked when he learns there’s an actual story in the game, too.
Eli Klaber: Lol, maybe this one is self-indulgent, but I feel like Klaber would get into SWTOR? The mechanics are easy to learn and the gameplay isn’t particularly challenging at all, but the stories are a blast and the characters are fully customizable, which is a must for Klaber. He wants to make his space Barbie and take her around the galaxy!
Vic Owen: Oh, it’s Beat Saber for sure. The fast lights! The music! The motion! It’s so stimulating and engaging in every way, and it’s so good at reliably burning away his excess energy! He’s so happy and spent by the time he’s done! Also, he just likes hitting things in virtual reality!
Danny Maguire: Surprisingly, Mass Effect. He starts playing on a whim, not expecting to like it very much, but he gets so damn hooked in the world and the storytelling. He totally starts off telling himself he’s gonna be a bad guy too, but that doesn’t last long at all. A few hours in and he’s making the most heroic choices and getting genuinely distressed if he can’t save everyone. He doesn’t get why he cares! It’s stupid! He’s falling in love with all his companions! They feel like family!
Ty Shaw: Ty ADORES Mario Kart! It’s so colorful and accessible and fun for all ages! It’s awesome to play in groups! He loves popping on a few games of Mario Kart as an icebreaker when he’s introducing someone to his family, too! Plus, it’s always good to see how they handle friendly competition!
Quinn McKenna: Quinn’s not big on story-based or roleplaying-heavy games, and although he does like the occasional combat game, the game he gets so damn addicted to is Minecraft. It’s the perfect balance of creativity within a clear and established structure! Quinn’s an adept visual thinker too - he starts off building some more simple structures, but it’s not long before he’s constructing giant fortesses and underwater bunkers.
what piercings would the boys get? (+bonus Blackguard)
Steve Murphy: I actually don’t think Steve would get any piercings. I probably spent the longest on this one, and honestly, I think he just doesn’t! Even lobe piercings are a no-go with his job, and he doesn’t strike me as someone that likes to have hidden piercings under his clothes. I feel like if he did get them, he’d get too frustrated by the long healing process and take them out.
Donald Pierce: Ooh, nipple piercings for Pierce (haha!). They’re a sexy little secret under his clothes, and I bet he loves that they’re so versatile; depending on the jewelry they can be so feminine or so butch. They make his nipples extra sensitive too - he moans and shivers so adorably when someone sucks on them during sex.
Cap Hatfield: I can see modern Cap getting a cute little nose stud! This is totally a scenario where I bet he lets Nancy drag him to the piercing parlor and pick something out for him - the piercer is very impressed by how stoically he takes it!
Clement Mansell: He’s got a foreskin piercing! He loves showing it off to his partners, and he especially loves seeing if they can feel it during sex. (Trans man Clement would totally have a clitoral hood piercing, maybe even a few piercings on his labia.)
The Corinthian: I feel like the Corinthian would play around with some really intense temporary piercings - scrotal piercings, corset piercings, collarbone piercings - but they’d just be for a night or a scene; he wouldn’t keep any of them for long. The piercing he does keep around? The basic lobe. He’s a beige mom, and he shan’t stand out too much from the crowd!
Eli Klaber: He has a belly button piercing! It’s perfect - he keeps it hidden under his clothes during the day, and shows it off at home! He loves having it glint prettily under a sheer robe around the house, and he also adores body chain jewelry.
Danny Maguire: He gets his lobes pierced and then immediately gets chewed out by his dad. He takes them out the next day.
Vic Owen: I feel like I can really see Vic rocking a tongue piercing, and/or some snakebites. I bet if he had a tongue piercing he’d play with it *so* much during oral sex.
Ty Shaw: He gets a Jacob’s ladder piercing on his shaft! Ribbed for your pleasure!
Quinn McKenna: You know? I feel like he gets his daith and tragus pierced for migraine relief. It’s purely utilitarian for him, but Nebraska convinces him to swap out the boring titanium with some cuter gold and diamond jewelry.
