#It's made so much funnier by the fact that he's totally wearing his dad clothes. Baseball cap and all.

Modern!Tropang Nerds Headcannons, Part II
part I / III / IV
PLACIDO: 
His eyes are such a dark shade of brown that many people think they're black, but when the light hits 'em just right; it's breathtaking. His eyebags are from late nights studying. Has short eyelashes, but his eyebrows are the envy of everyone (#OnFleek bitch). His eyes burn with the ferocity of an inferno when he's mad; radiate warmth when he's happy, and become as cool as metal when he's indifferent. In short, they're pretty expressive
His nose is flat; which everyone notices since they can't look him in the eye in sheer fear
He has really plump lips, which explains why he loves biting on it so much. That's also the reason why it's so red all the god damn time
Lip biting is his nervous tick. When he's especially antsy, he doesn't notice he's drawn blood until someone tells him
He's got the whole Probinsyano charm about him
He tries to keep a rein over his emotions most of the time, but little slivers of emotion slip out once in a while. He never blushes because of kilig, instead, it's because he's pissed as fuck and you should probably book the fuck out of there
He doesn't own a planner, but this guy actually remembers every. single. god damn. thing he has to do
The type to do something even if he hates it, swallowing every complaint he has just as long as it doesn’t compromise his personal dignity
does a thing quickly just to get it done quickly 
Has probably read the entirety of a Terms & Conditions statement at least once
He sighs to express his emotions
He's smart and he knows it; which may slightly come off as arrogance to other people
But hey, he can walk the talk
Gets all philosophical at 2 am, when he's drunk (which rarely happens), when he reads a particularly good book, or when he's emotional
He carries his clothes really well and it drives everyone of every gender nuts, he can literally make anything look good
Hates public humiliation with a burning passion; it's probably the only thing that can make him cry
Actually really cares a lot about what other people say about him, and no matter how sneaky they are or how quiet their whispers were, he knows. He never retaliates though; only when the rumors hit below the belt
He's an esteemed person, so anything that shits on that is a definite no from him
He will literally argue with someone to no end when he's right and until he wins
Remember that one student in your class who won't stop pestering the teacher about a correction in a test? That's him.
Most likely to be a sore loser
Procrastinates like no other, but only because once he starts on something, he won't be able to stop
Momma's Boy™
Breaks down like any other normal student, probably more than anyone, but only when no one is around to see
Angry crier but he won't admit it
Has the patience of a saint but will turn into the fucking devil when that wears thin
Might have started a fist fight once but immediately regretted it after
Fucking Extra™ when he's mad as fuck, nobody is able to console him (his mother is the only person who can relatively take him down a notch, but it still isn't enough)
Has the tendency to lash out at anyone regardless of his relationship with them
Needs to walk his anger/bad mood off or else it'll literally wreck him and/or the people around him
That is also probably why he has an uncanny knowledge of side streets and shortcuts and is a Pro™ at navigation
He can and he will deck a person flat when he needs to
Lowkey turns to tsokolate (eh) to cheer him up on a bad day. Screw coffee, fuck tea. Tsokolate's the real deal
His smile can cure cancer, especially since it's so rare
No bf/gf, no problem
#AcadsB4Lakads
He's really interesting to talk to, especially since the topics range from the pettiest things to the deepest, most profound shit you’ve ever heard. He gets all deep and philosophical real quick, and it's like a different side of him no one's ever seen. You know he loves talking about it since he seems so much more relaxed and at ease
JUANITO:
Cannot take a goddamn hint
Since he's 25% Spanish (yes I still stand by this lmao), he has really light brown eyes that pretty much shocked the fuck out of Placido the first time he saw it, because holy hell are they pretty. Long and thick lashes frame them, making him look like he's perpetually wearing mascara and eyeliner. Very wide and expressive, always glinting with a hint of mischief. He closes his eyes when he plays the violin, feeling the music he's creating and just soaking it all up
His nose is the envy of most. Matangos eh lol
His upper lip is slightly thicker than his lower lip. He's perpetually smiling, so this tends to go unnoticed
His smile is either a literal ray of sunshine or a demon's grin right before he pulls you in. there's honestly no in-between
His laugh is ridiculously fucking loud (and annoying) but it's also pretty hilarious. It's the kind of laugh that's contagious and is often funnier than his jokes
When he laughs, he completely loses his shit. There's no holding him back, it all just explodes and gushes out of him
He's also the type to laugh during sex lmao
He always has this cunning, almost threatening look that makes the people who know about his pranks fear for their lives. It can only mean trouble
Also, his smile is slightly lopsided; which makes him look cheekier
But, it also adds to his charm
He reeks of money and privilege, but the only time he remotely manifests his rich boy status is when he treats Placido his friends to lunch or dinner or a midnight snack
A total "samahan mo 'ko, ililibre kita" person
Probably has a huge sweet tooth, which explains why he's so hyperactive all the damn time
Has a short attention span, and when he actually pays attention to something/someone it's because he's genuinely interested
It also comes as a shock to everyone when he pays attention
Rarely listens to crappy pop songs. He has an array of classical music, movie scores, and instrumental pieces in his playlist
His numerous connections make sure he gets around fairly easy
He's also really amiable, pranks aside. Everyone pretty much knows him
He knows everyone. From the lady at the store to the guard at the farthest building on campus, he knows them. By name.
Actually a huge gossip monger
He's the one who introduced Placido to Makaraig and the gang because he thought the dude needed more friends
Can pull off ridiculously elaborate and Extra™ pranks that otherwise might get him in huge trouble, but he manages to get away with it
A little insensitive
But, he can catch on when someone's feeling like shi t
He tries to cheer them up, but, Juanito being Juanito somehow ends up offending them in one way or another
Feels slightly trapped when he has to act all perfect son-ish for his dad
The fact that his father has so many expectations for him actually puts a lot of pressure on his shoulders, he just hates showing it
Wishes he had a sibling to split the pressure with (also to test his pranks on)
Music is his language. Whatever he wants to say, he says it through playing his violin. Sad? Happy? Mad? He plays. You can always tell what he's feeling by listening to his pieces
(if anyone was actually around to hear it)
Placido was, once. The rawness of the notes and the way the music seemed to be reaching into the deepest hollows of his soul freaked him out a bit, but he didn't say anything. He was surprised Juanito was capable of demonstrating other emotions and feelings rather than happiness. It made him see Juanito in a completely different light
When Juanito opened his eyes to see Placido standing there, he was pretty stunned himself. Placido was unaware of the fact that he was freaking out because holy shit he saw me someone saw me someone heard me what is he going to think now but he shrugged it off with an easy smile and a casual question: "So. Why are you here?"
Placido understood it was something Juanito didn't want to talk about, so he blinked at Juanito blankly as if his heart didn't just grow a soft spot for him. "I thought we were going to study?"
Placido couldn't help himself. "That was pretty good, by the way."
Juanito pretty much short-circuited then and there. He thanked every saint he knew Placido walked out of the room after that, because he wasn't able to see him go red all over, flushed as fuck with his fingers shaking as he tucked away his instrument 
i got carried away oops
he was forced to take Violin lessons as a kid, but he fell in love with it unexpectedly along the way 
Lowkey crushing on Placiding
Gets pretty lonely
Probably hasn't cried in the last 10 years, but when he does, he's a fucking mess. Definitely an ugly crier
