How good of a kid is scott? Out of 10?
*music plays* It’s time for ‘Childhood Headcanons Nobody Asked For’ with your host, sxmmersloving!
Okay so, in lamest terms: Scott Summers was a cute little shit
He loved playing in their backyard so he took a lot of baths→ When he brings Jean home, his mom pulls out all the baby photos → His most embarassing (read: secret favourite) one is the one where he’s in the tub and smiling really big and has like a beard and head of bubbles and he’s holding a lil rubber duckie→ His actual least favourite is the one on the staircase wall where he’s dressed in some weird ass frilly thing with Alex for a professional portrait and Jean lives for it
The X-Squad would tease the shit out of him for his baby pictures but they were insanely cute and I think that Kurt would be the only decent person and tell him that→ also he wants one of them for his Friendship Scrapbook™
He loved (and still loves) Hanna-Barbera cartoons→ His favourites are Scooby Doo, Josie and the Pussycats, The Flintstones and The Jetsons→ He watches them when he feels sad/upset/nostalgic or when he misses Alex
He’d never admit it but he used to hate and torture every babysitter unless it was Alex or their really pretty neighbour who he had a massive crush on→ She ended up dating Alex and he was crushed when he saw them kiss one night
He learned to play the trumpet in the second grade and since you have to practice to get better, used to play a lot→ He once woke Alex up by playing the army march thing right outside his door and Alex chased and locked him out of the house so he cried until someone opened the door→ Of course, Alex was the one blamed for it→ ‘you’re supposed to be a good influence on him!!’ ‘but mom, he was-’ ‘I don’t want to hear it’ *scott sticking his tongue out at Alex from behind their mom* ‘MOM LOOK’ *scott stops and does innocent eyes*
He wanted a pet SO BAD that he would bring in creepy crawlies and try and raise them in a shoe box but he’d forget to close the lid and they’d get lost and his mom would fucking scream→ He got an ant farm for Christmas once and when he was arguing with Alex (probably about his trumpet lmao) he knocked it over and all hell broke loose so now he’s terrified of ants
The age difference between Alex and Scott would probably be around like eight to ten years so when he was younger, he’d always ask for Alex to read his bedtime story and one day Alex came home and read him the entire Alice in Wonderland story and that is why it’s his favourite book
He went through an ‘I’m not afraid of anything’ phase and his friends and Alex would get him to eat the grossest things→ These include (but are not limited to): bugs, raw eggs, unused kitty litter, old fruit and gum from underneath a desk at school
To answer your question, he was a shit but had a huge heart so I’d give him a 10/10 but I’m biased lmao @ my URL
