Hey, I love your HCs of the Triple Frontier boys <3 I was thinking about what are some of their hobbies/interests and what kind of music they like to listen to. What do you think?

excellant question nonnie!!! I have LOTS of hc's, thanks for asking!!!

Santiago Garcia

We know Santi loves Metallica

And the sountrack to TF has Fleetwood Mac and Bob Dylan

I think Santi just loves music! He flies a lot so he spends time listening to full albums.

He doesn't have a lot of free time

Despite everyones teasing, he's not here to fuck pretty women. He's here to work.

Still, despite onl a few personal items he does have his guitar. Plays it a lot.

It does help with women

When he was a kid he thought he'd become a singer, he loves Vicente Ferdanez and Juan Gabriel

Alas, for a poor immigrant family Santi couldn't abandon them to persu wishy-washy dreams, he needed to work. Hence the military.

Still, it makes him happy when he sit and play guitar, watching people smile.

He learns songs from all his friends and families favorite bands.

William Miller

Will hates modern country.

Growing up in the yee haw south I think he hates what it's become

Was not upset when Tobey Keith died at all, think he ruined the genre in the post-9/11 nationalism

He enjoys thegrassroots rock movement (springsteen, melloncamp, petty) and the blues.

Him and Santiago both love Fleetwood Mac. It combines Santi's love of rock and Will's love of the blues.

Enjoys jazz but also classical music. He has more interest in the instruments than the lyrics of music anyway.

Him and Frankie both love love love Johnny Cash (who doesn't?)

Will loves suduko

He loves things that calm his mind.

Will likes sports, it was how him and Ben spent a lot of time on the farm.

To this day he likes going out to play ball with Ben. It helps Benny with his ADHD.

Benjamin Miller

Benny does not find tossing a ball around or playing basketball helps his ADHD at all

What he does find is that is helps Will's obbsessive obsessive worrying about him.

So, in that sense, Ben likes it because 1. it's fun and 2. it's a rare chance where he can help Will. Will doesn't let people help him much

Benny looooooves trash TV

The Bachelor, Love after Lockup, Love is Blind

He likes shows he doesn'thave to pay a whole lot of attentionto.

Not that Benny isn't smart bc I haaaaate when people act like he isn't.

But with his ADHD (which I hc he has) he tends to have a lot of things going at once. He's not going to be able to sit down and fully commit to something like The Handmaid's Tale.

Will go head to head on country music with Will and Frankie

he likes the bro country like Florida Goergia Line, Jason Aldean

No one ever accussed him of great taste, okay?

He's here for a good time, not a long time.

He doesn't like the racist or anti-lgbt artists and won't give them his money for concerts

But you can't fauly him for getting don to Red Solo Cup

Also loves classic hair metal (wore an AC/DC shirt most of the movie)

Francisco Morales

Frankie loves country music and grunge

His favorite Benny singing tho

Favorite is anything Chris Cornell and I'll stand by that!!!

Soundgarden, Audioslave, Temple of the Dog, his solo work

Frankie is a busy man, but I like to think he likes lego's

He's an enginier, so you know he's a smart man. I bet he loves making lego sets come together

Frankie has very strong opinions on children's television.

Bubble Guppies > Paw Patrol

Hates Paw Patrol but his daughter likes Skye becuase she's a hellicopter/pilot dog so he allows it.

Loves being out in nature. He's trying ot instill a love of the outdoors in his daughter, but also loves pending time with the guy, or even by himself

When he's overwhelmed, Frankie likes to go for a walks in the woods.

Will fuck up a farmers market all DAY

Oddly enjoys mowing the lawn

My man is Hank Hill

"Why would anyone do drugs hen they could just mow their lawn."

Now that he's sober, he finds lawncare is a great way to distract himself while still being a present father. He can do that while his daughter plays.

******************

thank you so much for the ask!!!! i love chatting about my boys <3

*Blows dust off Tumbler

Howdy folks! Guess who’s back?! No not Santa Claus, that’s too early for him... I know. I’m sad too. 

I don’t know really what’s brought me back to Tumbler this time. I’ve been getting back into my own personal writing, plus I’m now a copywriting intern for Fresh Produce; an advertising agency. I was really disappointed when I found out they weren't farmers, but then I remembered that vegetables were ucky, so I soon go over it.

I thought it’d be fun, since it’s been so long, to share some more music with you guys! I’ve recently found Spotify and my Pandora days are done. I loved you Pandora, but I think it’s time for us to go our separate ways. It’s not me, it’s you... wait... that-I didn’t mean... *sigh

Well this is just awkward now... on that “note” let’s check out some new five faves!

“Out of this World” The Grass Roots (1969)

- The MINUTE this song begins, I swear, the sun starts shining, the birds start chirpin’, and Grandma starts doing backflips. If you’re having a slow morning, turn this on it’s like having a ton of cocain-COFFEE, coffee flow through you and gets you all pumped up. *sniff

“I Want to Know What Love Is” Foreigner (1984)

- If there was a hopeless romantics national anthem. This. This song would be it. I don't know a single song in existence that is as passionate, poetic, and personifies what it feels like to search for love. I realized way too late last year this should’ve been on my last list, and, don't worry, I’ve already undergone the necessary measures to rectify my injustice... those whip marks are STILL bleeding...

“The Rubberband Man” The Spinners (1976)

- Could someone PLEASE tell me where James Gunn finds his music? Seriously, if you have his number I won’t tell a soul I swear! If not, I’m afraid you’re just going to have to suffer the consequences... as soon as I find out what they are. ANYWAYS, If you thought “Out of this World” was a day brighter, oh man oh man. The Rubber Band Man HYPES UP THE ENTIRE GALAXY. So much funk and rhythm that just makes you lose yourself every time. How was this song not more well known for it’s time?? Honestly.

“Got My Mind Set On You” George Harrison (1987)

- This is that kind of song that goes through your head when you’ve met “the one” or if you’ve seen a triple decker sloppy joe with pickles, barbecue sauce with a side of ranch all slow roasted over an open flame with a cherry on top. Another song to get you excited and get the ol’ blood bumping. George is my favorite Beatle, and this song alone can back up my claim as to why.

“Believe” Cher (1998)

- 2017. Summer. Sioux Falls, SD. Harmadon Baseball Park. Parks and Rec. This was the melody that I had on CONSTANT repeat. No joke. I’m not joking. I just told-well fine! If you don’t believe me, you can just go! ...please don’t go. If you want to be transported to a rave made up of pure emotion and sweat that you’re sure isn't entirely yours, then come to my house. Just kidding (kind of)! This is the song that’ll do just that! Ok, my description didn’t really do it justice. Just listen and you’ll know what I mean...

Well you guys, this was fun. Now I’m in such a good mood that I think I’m going to do push-ups while I do a 5k sprint! I’m totally kidding! I’m still in a terrible mood. Again. Kidding. lol but seriously! This was fun! I hope you enjoy all you hear, that is, if you haven��t heard it before. (I KNOW YOU’VE HAVE. DON’T LIE TO ME!)
