After being introduced and inspired by @berrybooze’s hcs of Hunkade, I can’t stop thinking about them. And so, I might have written a little something for it.

“Hmm, let me see,” Ryan murmurs. He spins the book toward himself and tries to read for a second only to realize that it’s not written in English but Altean. “Wow, okay. I don’t think I can read that,” he says with a laugh. He raises his hands in surrender, before spinning the book back to face Hunk.

“It literally only says ‘sweetener’ but nothing else? I thought instructions of how to build, ignite and fire blasts of energy from an old Altean journal with frequencies that are seemingly impossible to replicate was hard, but this… this really takes the cake.”

Ryan stifles a giggle at the pun and Hunk rolls his eyes. “Yes, I get what I did there. Very funny.”

“You know if you didn’t like space or cooking that much, you would be a great comedian.”

“Yeah, and you would be the only one as my audience.”

“At least you have me cheering you on at every show across the universe.”

Or, Ryan discovering not only the secret ingredient for Hunk’s recipe, but also his love for him.

he has a real green thumb and used to actually keep a garden at home, first because his mom used to keep it but eventually didn’t have time for it anymore. he felt kind of sad to see such lively things, beings!, whither. it helps him calm down when he’s anxious or upset, they don’t ask questions and are willing to just listen when/if you’re ready to talk. so he volunteers at the garrison greenhouse.

and guess what? he loves flowers too!! dandelions are his favourite, he used to pick them all the time, and others, as gifts for his mother when he was a kid because and she taught him to make wishes on them when they were fluffy. some people say they aren’t flowers (the kids in preschool that used to make fun of him for example) but just because they’re common doesn’t mean they can’t be beautiful. and just because you like flowers doesn’t mean you’re “unmanly”, anyways he doesn’t have time for your toxic ideas of masculinity. he loves gifting and receiving them.
