so albert has like long-ish hair, right? he puts his hair up in double braids more for practicality's sake than anything. he has two younger sisters, that's how he knows how to braid.
now consider race who sees albert doing his hair up and watches so intently that he learns. sometimes the girlsies in brooklyn let him practice on their hair, just so he can offer to do it for albert. albert doesn't say yes very often.
but, one day he does. his wrists hurt and his arms are tired. he sits down at the bottom of the staircase of the lodging house, race sits a step higher. albert lays his head on race's thigh, just a little bit, and race nearly explodes. he tries not to pull on the braid too hard (spot's main complaint) and albert sighs happily as he feels race's fingers card through his hair. it's music to races ears. he lets himself smile, softly, smittenly, as he 'accidentally' strokes albert's cheek on his way to get a new strand of hair.
race wants this all the time.

adding on to the youtuber ralbert au!
al totally takes advantage of the fact that race gets turned on when he does the head back groan thing so he does it every time they lose
race, of course, gapes
except one time when al dies but race doesn’t and race just hears al groan and grabs the closest thing to him (a pen, probably) and throws in at al
“ow!”
“shut up babe i’m winning this game”
and then one time they win and race is like yeahhh!! and just kisses al on the nose and al goes like. bright red? red.exe has stopped working type beat
race trying to distract al as he plays by like playing with his hair or kissing his neck n stuff and al getting so flustered and THEN on the flipside race accidentally kills al and al just??? his voice drops and he’s like ‘i’m gonna get you back for that’ but he’s not even looking at race he’s looking at the game and race ABSOLJTELY flushes and if he squeaks no he didn’t no one heard it shhh
race or al wearing a shirt/sweater/hoodie and then a few videos later the other is wearing it and fans are like AWWWWW THATS SO CUTE ITS SO DOMESTIC
one day it’s just al and he’s like hi y’all race killed me again yesterday and i’m starting to think it wasn’t an accident so i killed him :) anyways moving on
al noticing race staring at him and he’s like what?? and race is like nothing nothing ur just super cute when you’re focused. and al looking at one of his videos and being mortified because babe oh my god i look pissed and race is like no!! ur cute!! but of course al is self conscious about it
fans, as always, are quick to reassure and are like AL YOUR FACE IS SO FOCUSED ITS GREAT YOURE AMAZING ITS FINE DONT WORRY WE ALL LOVE IT
one time they’re gaming and someone’s like IS THAT A HICKEY ON RACE’S NECK?? and race is like yeah ;) lmao but al just turns red
THE WAY THAT I ADORE ALL OF THESE FKSHBDBD
- al is nothing if not petty, so yeah he likes to embarrass race on stream just cause he can. also all the pictures of race staring or turning bright red because of him brings him a lot of joy
- once race chucked a stapler at al cause it was the first thing his hand touched and he was trying to focus on winning. he lost 5 seconds later cause “wait no baby i didn’t mean to do that i’m sorry” and got up to go hug albert (who was totally fine, btw. race is just dramatic and he saw chat loose it’s shit)
- race will also random pop in to the stream room if he’s not playing with albert and just kiss his cheek and ask him if he’s eaten and albert’s ear will turn pink under his headset and he’ll just make heart eyes and mumble an answer (it’s most often ‘no’, meaning fans get another cute moment where race brings food in for him and sits himself in a chair so they can eat together and talk to chat)
- race, being absolute shit at video games like his is, has started making a game out of trying to get albert to loose once he’s died by flustering him. sometimes it’s chill like just playing with his hair or looping his arms around albert’s neck from behind, and sometimes it’s race fully maneuvering himself into albert’s lap like a koala and completely blocking al’s view of the screen.
- if i’ve said it once i’ve said it 100 times, antonio ‘racetrack’ higgins is a complete fucking bottom send tweet. yeah nobody heard him squeak into the microphone or saw him turn literally scarlet WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. the only reaction albert has is one side of his mouth pulls up in this absolutely devious smirk and he makes the executive decision to look directly into the camera and fuCKING WINK
- it’s mostly race stealing all of albert’s clothes, and then albert stealing them back, but albert steals race’s beanies a lot. they officially have joint custody of albert’s XXL spiderman onesie cause it’s massive and comfy and who doesn’t want that
- like i said, albert is kind of a petty bitch and just randomly decides race killed him intentionally and won’t hesitate to shoot him in the back and blame it on a sniper
- race stares at albert more often then he gets caught staring, but everytime he gets caught he just does this soft little smile and it’s SO CUTE and albert just looks so confused??? like why were you staring at me???? someone make this boy realize he’s beautiful 😭
- the fans are almost as good at constantly complimenting albert as race is. like they’re just so nice all the time and albert doesn’t really know how to handle it but he appreciates it anyway. he still can’t take a compliment though.
- honestly the reaction to someone pointing out a hickey on either of them is ALWAYS albert getting really embarrassed and race just not caring at all. someone will be like ‘hey racer iS tHaT a HiCkEy’ and he’ll just be like ‘yeah lmao’ at the same time albert’s like “n O WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT.” same goes for when albert’s the one with the hickey, race will just smile very smugly while albert tries (and fails) to change the subject. they also get teased in instagram comments about it cause they’re just so obvious sometimes.
this is so fun !!! it honestly really helps me flesh out the characters cause i see them in so many scenarios and know their exact reactions. send me all the things 🙏🙏🙏
