You think you know a guy.

gn reader warnings: none

hunter smiles to himself when he feels your palm slide against his, slow and soft with a little hesitance. he immediately adjusts his grip to lace your fingers together, interlocking them firmly before giving you a playful squeeze that you return, and he chuckles under his breath, shaking his head as he pulls you along.

tech jolts as your fingers brush, but his pinky reaches for you instinctively, stretching until your hand slips into his. he releases a breath and carefully smoothes his thumb across your knuckles, not realizing he's been staring at you until you glance at him from the side, and he smiles before facing forward again.

wrecker grins as his hand engulfs yours like a warm mitten. your hand disappears inside of his grip, and he starts swinging your arms gently, humming in content. he's no doubt the type to twirl and spin you under his arm just because, his deep laughter shaking his shoulders, happy to be yours.

crosshair instinctively freezes up just a bit, his shoulders tight and stiff. he's not averse to your touch; he just doesn't know how else to react to the way his heart is suddenly racing. his hand slowly flexes around yours, and you feel every long, nimble finger stretch over your skin before he squeezes you softly.

echo worries that his skin is too cold. his body temperature is always low after skako, so he's a bit scared to initiate hand holding. he glances at you in surprise as you lace your fingers together with a sweet smile. he kisses the back of your hand, mumbling, "think i'll hold onto this for a while, if that's all right with you..."

wolffe doesn't have much of a visible reaction despite the touch-starved alarms blaring inside his head, heating his face up with nerves he hasn't felt before. you feel his response in his touch as he tightens his hand around yours and tugs you closer—a sharp command that gentles when he starts slowly caressing the juncture of your thumb and pointer finger. he's not used to being handled softly or handling others softly, but he tries for you, warm underneath the cold gaze you admire as you walk beside him, knowing he's not going to let go first.

fox thinks you're trying to get his attention at first. he's not used to random affection like this. he glances at you from the side, not meaning to sound so gruff as he says, "what?" but his shoulders relax when you shake your head and lightly swing your arms together. "alright, then..." he mutters to himself, secretly enjoying this.

cody isn't caught off guard by this. he feels your fingers interlock with his and starts rubbing slow, gentle circles on the back of your hand, smiling softly when you do it back. it's reflexive for him, and it's like he's easing out all the unspoken tension you've been carrying, knowing the comfort you need before you ask for it.

mayday sucks his teeth and clasps both hands around yours, bringing them up to his face as he rubs gently. "you're freezing," he mutters. he presses light, tender kisses to your fingers before he puts your joined hands in his pocket, where he keeps you warm, but it's also an excuse to make sure you don't pull away.

rex lets you intertwine your fingers together, keeping his grip soft for your comfort. he doesn't hold your hand too tight unless he's scared of losing you in a crowd or some other dangerous situation. his hand feels like a protective shell around yours, giving you the freedom to drag him around or squeeze him as you please.

fives smiles down at your joined hands and lifts them up to his mouth, holding eye contact as he kisses your knuckles. you blush, which is free ammunition for him to tease you even more. he winks at you playfully and drops your hands back to your sides, casually continuing on with your fingers still intertwined.

kix slows his steps as soon as he feels you reach for him. your shoulders brush as your hands interlock, your bodies side by side in this quiet, patient moment. he traces gentle hearts on your skin with his thumb, too sloppy for you to really deduce what they are, but you feel his caress all the same.

jesse loves holding your hand, but bless his heart, because he always gets sweaty. he's reluctant to let go of you, though, so you hook your pinky finger over his. he raises your hands to his face like a sealed promise, but he doesn't say anything out loud, just giving you a soft smirk before he kisses your forehead.

hardcase is normal for 30 seconds max before he starts doing silly shit like tickling the inside of your palm, but he stops when you threaten to pull away. you might be the only person who can get him to behave, rolling your eyes at the innocent, silent smile he passes over the kiss he drops to the back of your hand.

gregor is used to making the first move on these kinds of things because he just goes for it, so he's giddy with surprise when he feels you grab his hand out of nowhere. he adjusts his grip to hold you tighter and pull you closer, bringing his mouth to your ear to tease, "now you're not going anywhere..."

howzer glances down at your joined hands, eyes slightly wide. he's a mix of trying to be cool about it while also being unable to hide his facial expressions. he doesn't say anything, though, afraid to ruin the moment as he raises the back of your hand for a quick kiss before he drops it back to his side, clearing his throat a bit.

You can try and see how many you recognize! The answers are below.
