what theyre into
#TAGCEN
taggart blushing while looking upwards and thinking about a short haired woman with ear/nose piercings and painted nails (labeled alt chicks). basil rubbing the back of his head and looking downwards thinking about a bearded guy in a leather jacket holding a motorcycle helmet (labeled thick motorcycle dudes). chip crossing his arms and confidently imagining a buff flexing man and a buff woman. a guy in the background is smugly grinning after blowing a heart. its afterburner btw. (labeled: muscles in general. and... well...). samson standing and staring off into the distance, pleased. hes thinking about himself, who is looking at the viewer. behind him is a cheering crowd. (labeled: yep)
