sure anon! two days late but forgive me
snowball headcanons

FYI and for the record i feel like my head canon for him and fries are pretty different than the fandom “standard” at least i’ve never seen anyone interpret snowball like me so i hope it’s understandable. some bubble mentions below as well

  • snowballs human name is nicolas baek (baek meaning white) admittedly no crazy pun but nicolas could be related to christmas . Bubbles nickname is “bebe”.

  • starting with the tamest one snowball is bubbles older brother by a good few years. they’ve always felt related to me judging that they are both water based circular objects and how often they’re seen posed/standing next to each other. he’s pretty dismissive of her and tries to act like they’re not related mostly during competition because bubble is a bit of a “cry baby” in his eyes. (in the human au, her being popped is a metaphor for crying) but deep down he does care deeply for her. also in my mind they kind of talk similarly? bubble has a “yoyle” accent while snowball is heavily repressing his IMO.

  • i don’t know if i’m crazy or something but snowball and bubble read as country bumpkins that come from a farming family. snowballs obsession with strength and being picked probably comes from the fact at home he’s the one doing all the work on his family farm. he has a bit of an insecurity about that kind of stuff. plus, he cannot read and struggled to do a basic test in the third episode. he is a neglected first child who sacrificed a bit of his education to work for the family, and because of his role values strength over everything else

  • fries and snowball have a one sided rivalry, mostly on snowballs side. fries is more or less neutral on his presence yet doesn’t like his brash attitude . while fries tries to keep to himself and focus on work snowball instigates a lot of their negative interactions as he tries to show off that he’s better than him. Heavily simplified because i don’t want to get into too much without talking about my fries headcanons first.

  • somewhat unrelated but snowball comes from a hotter region. his nickname is more of an ironic thing to tease him, i don’t even think he’s seen snow before. Same with firey, coming from a colder place but he got his nickname from his temper

  • relating to the main trio, he has varying relationships with the others. he likes eraser the best out of all of them , seeing as at least in my rewrite they start clicking better with a common goal of “crushing the competition”. pen is some kid that’s there and they have their moments but pen just kind of looks up to him, wanting to learn how to be masculine like him etc. i’ve always interpreted snowball and blocky not liking each other in bfdi, and because of bubble being related to snowball it fits seeing as bubble is one of blocky main targets for pranks
