#i know my close mutuals know i heavily fw any latino portrayal of canon characters

[curlyshepardconfirmed]

Oh my god oh my god oh my god latino Steve Randle I never thought I'd need you until I knew you existed okay

Him calling Soda "mi cielo" or "mi tierra" guys

Chorizo and eggs with tortillas too in the morning omfg the Curtis gang would EAT THAT SHIT UP !!

In my hc Steve's mom died when he was younger and I can totally see him having her on his ofrenda at his house and Soda sees and just :(

"Is that your mom?" "Yeah." And Steve teaches Soda about Dia de los Muertos and Soda helps him save up for flor de muerte from a garden shop in town and you see Steve's house so alive with color and Steve walks Soda through making pan and lighting candles and making their own papel picado and homemade horchata because his mom loved horchata

mexican steve randle you will forever mean everything to me 🥹

like just imagine him, disconnected from this part of himself, finally learning to be somewhat comfortable and showing the curtis gang his favorite foods, sayings, and bits of culture

steve teaching everyone how to make homemade pupusas and tamales, and some little things like fideo and rice become a common dinner side [these are just cause those are some of my favs my family makes]

steve makes migas for soda once and it turns into one of his favorite breakfast foods [me too soda, me too]

he teaches soda the little bits of spanish he knows and they call each other sweet things like "mi amor", "mi corazón", and "mi alma" [and stupid things like "tonto" and "puta"]

he slips up sometimes and says things like "ay dios mio" and "aye yai yai" out of pure exasperation [same], which then gets added to sodas vocabulary

he owns so many sarape blankets and keeps a few of his favorite ones at the curtis house, everybody loves them for their warmth and texture and prefers them when sleeping over

OH MY GOD TRES LECHES it becomes the second favorite cake to their classic chocolate <3

ill tag some ppl too just cause i think i should start doing that :3 @deim0sdread @n0rthern-star @tex-aintdeadyet
