#she’s just a sweaty fucking gamer lads

[quinnhayden]

give me all your headcanons about Quinn NOW /lhj (specifically personality/characterization stuff, I read your fics and they’re my saving grace during this episode of writer’s block)

pls I beg

This took me forever because I’m like, what do we NOT know about Quinn at this point? I feel like she’s so flushed out as a character. So, here’s me fixating on one thing that I brought up during a recent chapter that I’ve never talked much about in the story beforehand.

Quinn LOVES video games!!!

The first time that she was introduced to them was when she took Tony out as a kid and they played Pac-Man for literally hours. Howard was fucking furious when Quinn kept him at the place until it closed and almost called the cops on her to report a kidnapping.

Did she spent an embarrassing amount of time in arcades before video games became household accessible? MAYBE. Does she have enough shame to give a shit? Nope.

These days, Quinn has every console because with video games, she has no loyalty. She’s got Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, and is building a PC so she can access more games on Steam.

Steve was about ready to kill her when they only had a one bedroom apartment in D.C. because he would come home and trip over controller wires constantly. Or find out that she broke ANOTHER controller because she’s a hardcore rage quitter. Thankfully, back in the brownstone, there’s a whole room where she can keep all her gaming equipment.

She prefers story based and sandbox games over shooters. She’s got enough of that in her regular life, thank you very much. I don’t think she has a particular genre that she prefers, honestly. She’s the kind of person that will try any game out.

Steve isn’t very good at them, but he does love to watch her play them because he loves looking at the art. Does Quinn specifically go hunting for games with incredible art? Who knows? But the literal best thing that absolutely turns her into a puddle of mush is when she’s on the floor, playing a chill video game, between Steve’s legs, and he plays with her hair. Those game nights usually end up shorter than others because Quinn can’t NOT show how appreciative she is of her husband, now can she?

Bucky, though. Bucky is a whole other beast. And when he finally comes home, Steve is close to strangling them both in their sleep. Because Bucky is a huge fucking nerd, so OF COURSE he will take to video games like a duck to water. But the problem with story based games is they tend to not be multiplayer, so they fight all the time over who gets to play it first. And when they DO play multiplayer, they’re…very competitive. And very loud. And talk a whole lotta shit.

In the future, when they retire, Quinn will keep herself busy by being a Twitch streamer. Obviously, she gets a huge following, but it becomes a Thing in her chat to not acknowledge that she’s The Quinn Hayden. And stubborn chatters will come in and be like there’s literally a shield in the background! And Quinn will say, “What are you talking about? That’s my husband’s frisbee? Have you never heard of ultimate frisbee?”

Steve and Bucky and baby often make appearances in the background of streams. The obviousness of who they are becomes even more apparent, but Quinn and her regulars just become even more of little shits. That dude literally has a metal arm! And she’ll say, “Oh, he’s just really into cosplay.”

Don’t think I didn’t see that saving grace comment! You’re so fucking SWEET 😭
