you guys loved the last one so much - i'm going to make this a series!

laughter. listen, i'm a simple lad. i hear a boy laugh, and i suddenly forget how to act like a person. something made him so happy, or he found a half-baked meme on iFunny that made him do the half-smile-blowing-air-out-your-nose thing. one of the best sounds, A+.

hugs. boy's hugs. hugs from boys. they're always so warm and soft... and you can just feel his outer shell melt away. sometimes, he'll stroke your hair and whisper things in your ear as he hugs you. they range from a soft, "i love you" or a silly inside joke that cracks you up.

jumps. they are very hoppy ones, why is this? when he sees a door frame, it is inevitably smacked. when he sees another boy, and they get excited, they hop? it is very adorable and confusing, 10/10.

singing. the number one way to make me melt into a very gay puddle on the floor. they hum under their breath when doing homework or doing chores - and half the time, they won't even know what song it is. they enjoy singing in the shower as loud and obnoxiously as possible - but only when you're around to hear him. too adorable.

sleeping. how are boys so adorable when they're literally doing nothing? picture your boyfriend/crush sleeping next to you. he makes little sounds. he roll. he flip over. sometimes, he'll steal your blanket. and sometimes he'll GIVE YOU HUGS IN HIS SLEEP. HELP.

reading. nothing is softer than a boy with a book in front of his face. pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose when they slide down. turning pages quickly, and literally tapping his foot when it gets suspenseful. throwing the book across the room when the dog dies-

passions. i will cry. he waves his hands around excitedly over the nerdiest things. when you start talking about one of his special interests, he lights up like a christmas tree, and starts talking at 2x speed. he is so excited to show you the things that he loves. let him.

soft interactions. boys playing fetch with a puppy, but he ends up doing all the fetching. boys falling asleep with a kitten curled up on their chests. boys running around with little kids, and having the most adorable and nonsensical conversations. boys... marry me.

clumsiness. the cute dumbass trope in general. when they try to high-five a buddy and totally miss. when they try to impress someone and end up tripping over a potted plant. accidentally ignoring wet floor signs and literally falling down a flight of stairs-

comfort. boys wearing the biggest, fluffiest hoodies. whining when you get out the bed to make breakfast because bABE YOU'RE LEAVING THE COMFYNESS?? their annoyed tired groans when they eventually have to wake up and join the world.

please comment and/or reblog with some more mannerisms that you love about boys!

- hair. all types of hair are so beautiful to me. i love thick, poofy hair. it can amuse me for hours and i adore playing with it and making little space buns. i love thin, straight hair. i can tuck it behind his ear right before i kiss him good morning. i love all colors, lengths, everything. they play with it? always? absolutely adorable, i need a moment.

- skin. there is something so raw and human about our skin. and the blemishes, scars, colors, tattoos, freckles, stretch marks, and patches are all lovely, because they're a part of you. skin can receive tender touch, the sharp sting of art, and all of life's best sensations.

- brows. it is said that the human face holds the capacity to produce 10,000 facial expressions. but, i swear, every guy has his own unique one. they fly upward when he's surprised, and crinkle together when he's concentrating. always slightly disheveled as he rolls out of bed.

- eyes. good god, i have to stop myself from writing a paragraph about irises alone. eyes hold so much emotion. the way they get wide when he gets excited about something. the way the upper lids droop slightly when he gets sleepy - yet, he'll protest; "sleep is for da weak!"

- noses. are so cute? the way they scrunch together and wiggle? the most boopable feature of the human body. additionally, when a snowflake lands on his nose and he tries to lick it off. eskimo kisses with mugs of steaming hot cocoa. even the occasional sniffles. agh.

- lips. many uses. kisses, of course, are among my favorites. although, i can't help but crack up at his lemon face. the duck lips when posing for an impromptu selfie. those adorably awkward thin-lipped smiles he gives to strangers on the street. what is he doing..?

- shoulders. fantastic?? perfect headrests for sleepy afternoons. essential safety feature during piggyback rides. when he gets stressed, you can massage them; he'll let out the biggest, most satisfied sigh. small shrugs. huge, animated, cartoon shrugs. AGH.

- hands. immaculate. small hands to kiss and hold. big hands to envelop your own. the Intimidating Knuckle Pop used to scare off pesky siblings in the background of phone calls. chilly hands that you can warm up. interlacing fingers?? wrapping around my neck and ch-

- tummies. VERY GOOD QUALITY. small tummies? pudgy tummies? tummies with stretch marks? all beautiful and good. when you use them as a pillow, and he softly goes 'oof'? when you cook a meal together, and they get excited because this is going to be so good.

- legs. despite their ability to steal every goddamn blanket off the bed and couch, they are also very good while snuggling. especially when they wrap around your waist like a baby koala?? i don't know what you're doing, sir, but it is adorable. do it again. wholesome stuff.
