AOT MEN AS FOOTBALL PLAYERS !
purely, completely inspired by this fan art i saw, i SWEAR drool leaks at the corners of my lips every time i lay eyes on it. i meant to post this weeks ago but i got distracted, life is busy, and i came up with like 10 other draft ideas. but here you are! pls enjoy, reblogs are heavily appreciated!! <3
cw !Ā āā college/professional football au!, fluffy things, suggestive themes + scenarios, mentions of sports related injuries
notes ! āā here is the artist and fan art for reference, pls go support her work sheās truly talented and amazing: link link link (thereās no art for connie but ima include him here anyway) this wasnāt even supposed to be long but here i am getting carried away once again
źØ . . . EREN
based on the picture (linked above), his stance, facial expression and body language, all tell us one thing . . . .eren is the whore of the team.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOO i said what i said <3
to elaborate, heās like... the most desired out of everyone (he gives most eligible bachelor vibes) and the team has him to thank for all the extra publicity and support they get from a wider audience aside from adolescent, teenage and middle aged men.Ā
he likes to act dumb like he doesnāt notice all this extra attention he gets, especially from women, but itāsĀ obvious that every time he goes to a conference, or heās on the field, or taking a break on the bench, he is literally basking in the screams and praises of his name or the number on the back of his jersey; it feeds his ego until itās overflowing and spilling over. that smug smile he wears is always plastered on his face because of it.
also because of all this attention, heās one of those players that barely show up to practice. heāll really only show up a couple times a month, and itās an even rarer sight if you see him at morning practices, the ones that occur when the sun is just peaking over the trees and tall buildings on campus and the sky is rich, navy blue hue. itās not even because heās busy with other things like school or a job, he just doesnāt show up because heĀ ādoesnāt feel like itā. coach erwin smith verbally scolds him for his lack of team spirit and collaboration, but coach levi ackerman simply just makes him run and do suicides until he nearly passes out from exhaustion.
eren still does what he pleases though, and somehow maintains his position of the teamās quarterback. as many absences as he has, he can still keep up and is knowledgeable of team plays and strategies.
definitely the one to play jokes and pranks on the rest of the team alongside connie. more on that soon
back to what i was saying about him being the local manwhore though (as cliche as it is, it fits this version of him), a lot of women and even some men want a piece of mr. yeager and he thoughtlessly entertains any flirtatious encounters he may come across. lowkey heās kinda superficial, and a liittle shallow, but always get what he wants. if he does end up getting with someone for the long term, the lucky girl wouldnāt fall for his beguiling smiles so easy; theyād humble him, making him a better person and that would make him fall deeply in love with them.
źØ . . .Ā JEAN
in the pic jean looks like he was attending a conference of some sort. therefore, i like to believe he never liked going to those things, and his cute lil thick girlfriend me as well as his manager forces him to attend and participate. i hc that he doesnāt really like being in front of flashing cameras and reporters all that much (camera shy <3) . heād rather have scouts come to his games and hunt him down for questions afterwards.
jean gives me wide receiver vibes idkk. i think he probably wanted to be quarterback but he had to compete with eren for that spot, and eren beat him to it. over time though heās grown to love playing the positionĀ
definitely has his own little harem of girls that would drop their panties for him, but heās so incredibly loyal to that pretty girl he has laying in his bed back at his dorm or his apartment, so he politely declines or weave around their advances.Ā
he lives for the massages his gf gives when he goes home after a long day of practice & work and/or school. the way her hands work into the tense and stiff muscles on his back or shoulders either leave him incredibly aroused or incredibly sleepy
i feel like heās one of the more... serious ones, like he follows plays strictly by the book, shows up to every practice on time (maybe even stays late if he has extra energy), the whole 9 yards.
wants to go pro, and he does eventually
if one of those programs should happen where high school football teams, or a group of kids from a rec center shadow his team for a whole day, i feel like heād be very involved with the younger kids. heās really eager to teach them all the skills heās picked up over the years, run a couple plays and give them tips to succeed if they wanna get into the sport or get drafted in the nfl.
i hc that he would do like... commercials for thingsĀ and get brand deals nā stuff because he just seems approachable, despite not liking being in front of a camera in that way
unfortunately, the pranks that eren and connie play are on him 75% of the time :( my poor boy. def gets a grey hair or two dealin with them
expanding on what i said before, there was a little teeny bit of resentment he held towards eren because he got to be quarterback instead of him, and he gives āren shit for it sometimes ( āren is offended and acts like he doesnāt know why but deep down he has an idea, and taunts jean about it). but when itās crunch time and theyāre in the zone, they work so well together;Ā they are definitely a dynamic duo and no one can stop them
źØ . . . Ā ARMIN
oh precious baby armin <333 he looks so delectable in the fan art i just wanna lick up his neck and kiss all over his face while i bounce on that veiny colossal cock he got in hisā
ahem, sorry about that
anyway, yes. armin is definitely very beefy here as a football player and we love that
naturally, eren is his best friend on the team. matter fact, heās the one that convinced armin to join in the first place. he did really well at tryouts and practice, so they also made him apart of the starting lineup as a (full back) running back
building off this, i feel like him (and connie) are the most agile on the team. sure everyone is fast and has to have a certain level of agility and speed to even be on the team, let alone be a starter, but armin...heās just slightly better than everyone else in that department
i headcanon that heās the rookie of the team, meaning he joined a tad later than everyone else, which was strange because usually coaches levi and erwin donāt accept no late comers; if you miss tryouts then thatās it. but that just made everyone believe that he had real potential if they accepted him anyway
armin initially saw football as a hobby, an extracurricular if you will. but the longer he played for the team, the closer he gets to his best friend eren whilst making new ones, the more he started to realize that football was more than a hobby. it was a de-stressor, he really enjoyed being out on the field everyday. it made him forget about all his troubles for a while
speaking of troubles, heās in college (as i previously alluded to), majoring in environmental science and ecology. he usually has a lot of stuff on his academic plate but he manages it really well and maintains a good academic standing
after his first game, a month after he joined, all the girls flocked to him and sweetĀ āmin isnāt used to getting attention like that, so it left him a bit frazzled, trying to listen to everyone at once and give them a thoughtful answer, while flashing them a sheepish smile (which only made his new harem swoon even more)
heād never admit it to anyone, but all this attention definitely boosted his self esteem and his ego. itās something he now anticipated after a game or practice, and he only got more suave and sly, taking everyone off guard
def the type to invite the boys to train or hit the gym outside practice and then hangout or something afterwards
also the type to get brand deals and be special guests on kids television or award ceremonies to present awards or whatever
źØ . . .Ā REINER
oh reiner.. my everything. the kids miss you bb
okay UH when i first saw the fan art for reiner my immediate thought was he is a line backer. like immediately. to me it suits him well because heās so bigggg nā muscular and beefy like YUMMMM heād be tackling mfs
another one of those kinds of players that would take the game a little more seriously than others; like jean he does things by the playbook and does it very very well
part of this is because reiner is that team member that has been playing football for most of his life: as a fun little thing in middle school, played all four years in high school, and intends to play all through college. his dream since he was younger is to be scouted by one of his favorite teams, get drafted, and go pro
spoiler alert: he does.Ā (when they announced his name, number and what team he was gonna play, he was so shocked and almost teared up as he walked up the stage to accept his jersey. heās so cute. )
reiner just.... looks the most natural in football attire letās be real with ourselves. like it suits him. he loves the game so much
i headcanon that he becomes the nflāsĀ āit boyā, like heās the talk of the organization for a while, people wonāt stop talking about him, companies are reaching out to him for endorsements and brand deals bc why not. sports magazines reach out to him as well and he also looks natural posing for a camera as he does on the field
in his future, i can see him being inducted into the nfl hall of fame. that, he will cry at, because itāll make him feel like he accomplished something in his life, and that people acknowledge him.
sees his college and/or professional team like family fr; all the boys like his brothers
itās a given reiner will kiiinda be a meathead, always the first to take up offers to go to the gym or stay longer after practice.
likes coach erwin a lot, and is...intimidated by coach levi LMAOOOO
źØ . . .Ā CONNIE
ahhh, cornelius constanceĀ jamal springer III
he lowkey gives me laid back skater boy turned jockĀ
he plays entirelyyy too much like he gets threatened to be benched every other week
sometimes he does end up getting benched and when he pouts his pink puffy lips, coach levi narrows his eyes at him, slaps him upside the head with his clipboard and goesĀ āif youād just shut the fuck up during practice and do what youāre told, that could be you out thereā and then proceeds to put him in bc levi wants all his boys to play
but this aināt about levi. heāll come next
connie def runs the most suicides bc of his aforementioned behavior
unrelated but connie is one of the most agile/fast people on the team, right next to armin. so whatās a few laps? the coaches think. the way the coaches see it, all that talk he was chatting about the latest kickback, theyāll wear him down so much heāll be too sore to attend
connieās position... he gives me tight end, maybe even a cornerback . iād like to think he really enjoys playing offense more than defense.
to be frank, everyone on this list has their own little group of fangirls, and constance eats up the attention he gets. before he started playing football, it was never like this, and he wasnāt all that well known, he just blended into the crowd. but playing for his college...despite it actually being kinda fun, was the best decision he ever made
probably knew jean and was friends with him in high school and just when jean boy thought heād escape connie (heād never tell him or anyone how much heād missed him at their high school graduation) there he goes at the information sessions....then at tryouts...and the locker rooms and practice... and on the field. all the while connie is just smirking at his friendās annoyed expression
back to what i was saying before, connie is probably the prankster on the team, well, more like comic relief to liven things up. he is definitely the type to do that thing when you wring a towel up tight, all that pressure packed up in a stiff coil, before releasing all that pressure in the form of a loud smack! on someoneās unsuspecting bare ass
jean is the victim of this most of the time
everyone is howling in laughter, even armin letās out a hearty chuckle
and that thing i said about eren being included in these schemes? yeah if the pranks are on jean, then heāll gladly oblige because they have this unspoken rivalry between each other. but connie always gets in trouble, eren almost always slipping away at the last minute with a snicker
źØ . . .Ā LEVI
levi ackerman.... he looks delicious in the fan art donāt you agree? that piercing and silver chain he got make me wanna drop my panties fr
in this case, i think itās a given heās one of the coaches for this team. if this was like good cop bad cop, levi would be.. theĀ ābadā cop
LOL heās more strict and kind of demands more from his players. the way he carries himself, heās intimidating and just exudes authority. but the boys got used to it overtime
very punctual. he takes that seriously so the boys try their hardest to be early or arrive on time. levi donāt got time for all that shit, he just wants to do his job and get todayās session over with
in terms of coaching, i hc that levi handles practicing whatever plays are in the playbook, taking the time to make sure everyone knows what theyāre doing and that theyāre doing it right. that doesnāt mean his patience is extensive though, he will get irritated if someone is doing something wrong too many times. he whips them into shape by threatening to bench them or āsarcasticallyā joke that heāll give one of the boys a broken bone,Ā āso now you really will be on the bench because and wonāt be able to play.ā
heheh, silly levi <3Ā
erwin has to remind him he canāt blatantly make threats like thatĀ
i headcanon that heās also the one that schedule most meetings and press conferences, as well as handle everything when the boys have an away game
now if weāre talking about levi in his glory days...whew baby was dat shit fr
back when he was in college he was one of the star players on his team. he used to be the kicker, the muscles in his legs taut and strong; he never missed btw. but for the majority of his professional career, iād like to say that he played wide receiver, like jean. he seems like heād enjoy weaving past the opposing team (his more slender stature coming in handy) and running damn near the entire field to catch passes
the competition couldnāt keep up with him
he was that guy that had never touched a football in his life, but as soon as he started,Ā he was damn good. eventually got inducted into the hall of fame. one of the few times he genuinely smiled at something
out of everyone on this list, him and erwin have suffered the most injuries. one time when he was younger, levi was tackled down and he fell wrong, dislocating his entire shoulder
he loves the boys so much, outside of football, he cares about their well being and whatās going on in their lives, heās just awful at expressing it
źØ . . .Ā ERWIN
first thing that came to mind for erwin smith was āhead coachā. i think it makes sense considering his ranking in the aot canonverse
referring back to my good cop/bad cop comparison from before erwin is the āgoodā cop. and good is laying it on kinda thick. bc erwin can still be strict, heās just slightly more lenient then levi is
if the boys had to choose, eight times outta ten, theyād pick coach smith
in terms of his role on the team, most of the time heās the one in charge of days where the boys condition their bodies, so like endurance training, increasing their stamina, flexibility exercises etc. truthfully speaking though, him and leviās roles are interchangeable ; theyāre perfectly capable of doing each otherās jobs
but i can see erwin yelling out counts and commands during practice a little too well. sometimes heād even do conditioning exercises with them bc āwhatās the harm in that ?ā
side note: heās tall and muscular and strong itās crazy fr
also, coach erwin is a milf chaser . kiindaaaa unrelated but itās definitely true. esp a milf who happens to be a black woman. just imagine heās goin to a high school game to scout out and new players who show great potential, and then he notices this gorgeous, dark skinned woman a few seats away and he just has to go talk to her . turns out her son is on the field heās been the one that heās been eyeing the whole time . he puts his silver tongue to use and flatters her almost immediately. by the end of the night erwin just might have scored a new member of his team and a new stepson
;)) that needed to be said
but besides that, he finds that a lot of single moms often offer him a lingering glance wherever he may go. i mean who can blame them ?
i feel like back when he was younger and he used to play he was a lot like reiner. which kinda explains why reiner admires erwin so much , bc he sees the resemblance too. erwin was the āgolden boyā in his days.
in high school, he played quarterback and in college he was positioned as center . bc again, him leading offense and yelling out commands to the quarterback is very on brand for him
levi and erwin first met at a college kickback (yes levi occasionally went to those bc he was on the football team, but he hated every minute of it) . they met at a bar , talked about stuff, discovered they both played ball and their friendship went from there. things got interesting when they say each other on opposite sides on the field the following saturday, their schools playing against each other . they continued to hang out and meet for drinks after that .
erwin is in love with the game it would take something really serious to force him to stop playing . that serious thing, was when he tore his ACL. the way he and the opposing team member charged at each other, youād think they were in a brawl to the death. one wrong movement and a tackle to the ground and that was it. although his knee was burning with excruciating pain, erwin gritted his teeth and stood up on his own , stumbling to the bench with the help of other coaches and teammates. he didnāt think it was that serious so he didnāt get it checked out right away
it was this mistake that cost him . now he has a long lasting knee pain which prevented him from seriously playing. he can still do physical activity, it just took him a while to get back to it
naturally, he got inducted into the hall of fame early on in his nfl careerā well, at least earlier than levi did
and like levi, he cared deeply for his players and their futures, on and off the field <3 heās such a sweetie
