scout headcanon: scout is mildly allergic to strawberries, but he still eats them. all the time. some of the more concerned base members have tried to stop him, but to no avail. they’re his favorite fruit, what are they going to do? not buying them isn’t always an option, becuase (beyond the fact that scout could go out and by them for himself anyways) they’re also favorites of other base members, including engie, who has done about every creative thing he can think to separate scout from whatever strawberries they have. scout’s even been offered articifical strawberry-flavored things, but he doesn’t like the flavor. fresh strawberries or nothing
I love this. like engy builds a refrigerated safe JUST for the strawberries and he comes back later and finds it blown open and slightly covered in obliterated strawberry but the rest of the carton is gone. soldier will detail later how he looked behind him at some point his rocket launcher was just. gone. and engy bursts into scout’s room and finds him reading a comic book with an empty strawberry carton discarded on the floor beside him and he looks at engy like this
it’s Really bad. you know how when you have a dog or cat you see them eating something they’re not supposed to and you go “STOP EATING THAT GET THAT OUT OF YOUR MOUTH” and they run away from you and you have to chase them down and manually stop them yourself? they have to do that with scout ona daily basis
