I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM SO MUCH HAVE SOME HEADCANONS ABOUT MY BELOVED

also because this is my NSFW blog, you're getting some nastay headcanons, too

OKAY LET'S GO

He's canonically a history nerd, but if you know irl history nerds, you know how insufferable they can be about their special interests. Everyone in his part of CSOR (and eventually SpecGru) learned very early not to ask him questions if they didn't a two hour infodump sesh. (Two hours is the abridged version.)

He does have Slides and PowerPoint presentations prepared for just such a occasion.

However, there is no way to get out of the full presentation on the Alberta Rat War. It's vital to know that story if you want to befriend him.

If he hadn't joined the military, Reyes thinks he would have been a hella good history professor.

(If not a very enthusiastic one. Just real life siege warfare demos.)

Loves hiking and camping. The more rustic and backwoods, the better.

Tattoos! He's got a bunch! Half the fun of being with him is finding all of his tattoos.

If you hear him talking to himself and pretending he's an 18th century voyageur, no you didn't.

He knows how to knit and crochet, and his sewing skills aren't half bad.

That said, he's the person to go to if you need stitches. One of his C.O.'s commented that he would have made a pretty good medic and Reyes has preened about that ever since.

On the flip side, he has an awful tendency to correct people. Like very 'um, actually?'. That's what got him into so much trouble in CSOR.

On the freak chance he ever meets with Calisto, they can hardly understand each other. Her French is very proper, and his is very... Canadian.

Once he's in SpecGru, he and Soap adore each other. They're like two Golden Retriever puppies. He also gets along well with Gus, Nova, and Gromsko. (He learns about Gromsko's Hussar thing and does not leave him alone.)

Has an odd but good friendship with Ghost, too. They bond over wilderness skills and constantly compare their camping equipment and hunting supplies. They're also in on an inside joke directed mostly at Soap to make increasingly more outlandish survival tips. (They go backcountry camping together once a year, but that's classified information.)

Wilts in hot weather. This isn't ideal when he needs to go to warm weather locations, but he deals with it.

Extremely ticklish. No one knows this. No one needs to know.

If there was a ranking for best laugh in SpecGru, he'd win by a landslide.

Vancouver Canucks fan. He doesn't know anyone who is a fan of the Edmonton Oilers.

He did play hockey as a teenager, though. Even now, pond hockey can't be beat.

Also goes ice fishing a few times a year, if he can.

Plays D&D.

Not-so-secretly a hopeless romantic.

Designated the friend who has everything in his bag. Bandaids, chapstick, firestriker, hygiene products, granola bars, etc. He's ready for anything.

Worst bedhead ever. Ever, ever, ever.

NSFW STUFF

He doesn't have the biggest dick (you try showering next to some of the guys in SpecGru and see how you feel about it), but he knows how to use it well.

His stamina in bed is unmatched. Be prepared to go four, five, potentially six rounds. Let him take a nap and get a snack in his system and he's ready to go all over again.

Pretty big on outdoor sex. Not exactly an exhibitionist, but he likes fucking with a view.

He also likes experimenting with positions. He's pretty flexible!

Loves having his hair pulled.

Also loves giving oral. Receiving's great and all, but he gets incredibly aroused by how much his partner is enjoying it.

Super into roleplaying. This shocks no one.

Pain/impact play's cool and all, but it's not his favorite. He'll do it if his partner likes it, though.

He can fill the full spectrum of romantic sex to outright kink. He is a man of multitudes.

If you're the pegging type, he's ready, willing, and prepped before you even get to the bed.

On the tattoo front, he's got some in interesting places.

Very much a switch. He enjoys restraints, but he thinks his partner looks damn good in them, too.

Constantly doing check-ins. You good? Do you need anything? Lube? Snack? Beverage? He's pretty sure he has a GoGurt and something with plenty of electrolytes around here somewhere.

Be prepared for beard burn. (Don't worry. He has lotion you can use afterward.)
