OOOOKAYY OKAY OKAY here we go are you ready I'm ready ARE YOU READY

B really dislikes it when people use his size to make him seem threatening, even as a joke. Both that and his mutism made it very difficult for him to make friends, which is why he joined his school's football team, alongside a few other clubs. He got along with other guys just fine, but they tend to misunderstand and speak for him. Eventually, he started using a notepad to communicate. I actually considered changing his sport, but as a non-sporty person I didn't really see a point as it made no difference to me.

He is an excellent cook! He picked up a few books and is usually the MVP of potlucks. And, because it won't be stated in his interview:

- His favourite food is smash burgers

- His favourite movie is Superbad

- His favourite colour is yellow

- And he listens to indie rock

Relationships:

Dawn - Like in canon, him and Dawn are close friends. They frequently go on runs together and seem to mentally sync during challenges, making them an excellent duo in physical challenges. Even without her aura reading capabilities, she understands him very well, and will often invite him on nature hikes. They're playfully competitive but greatly supportive of each other, though even B can feel threatened by her strength at times. I'd say they're the closest friendship on the Molerats.

Scott - B annoys him a lot without even trying. Scott annoys him whilst very much trying. B has dealt with a few people like Scott before and knows not to pay him any mind, but he still infuriates him deeply. Despite B's strength, Scott is still a sneaky little bastard, and takes advantage of his silence.

Sam - Sam's a little bit threatened by him at first, but they become casual friends. B likes listening to Sam ramble about his interests. While Sam can't quite understand B a lot of the time, he at least makes an effort, even if he gets it wrong. So, so wrong.

Staci - Very similar to the above, though B is less inclined to hear about all the tea Staci has stored up. He learns everyone's drama against his will and just has to sit there with that information.

Dakota - These two don't have as prominent of a relationship, but B will often step up to assist Dakota whenever she needs it, like a gentleman. She finds him kind of weird, but appreciates his help regardless.

Lightning - Being on opposite teams, they didn't really get to talk much at first. Lightning is really, really bad at charades. He is also bad at reading. But they do share a mutual respect despite being so different, though B can get annoyed with Lightning's occasional air-headedness.

Jo - She is the only other person who 100% understands him. She just pretends not to because she's a jackass.

And here's his individual ref sheet (I accidentally removed his lip privileges in the pinned post without realising whoops):

Jo & Mary

I hc that their parents are divorced, Jo got their Dad and Mary got their mom. their parents raised them very differently lmao

they don't hate each other, they just don't talk much due to altering interests

Sam and Staci

I don't even have an explanation for this I just think they're cousins

Dawn & Lauren

I never liked the theory that they're the same person but I think it would be funny if Dawn was her aunt

Anne Maria & Bowie

Again, another case where I think her being her aunt would make a bit of sense

B & Millie

Mfs hate on Staci too much, she's pretty amusing. I wish we knew more about her
