Once Bro was standing outside school when Dave was little, dropping him off, and one of the other kids mothers started talking to him. When she asked if he’d ever spanked Dave, Bro just gave her a disgusted look and said ‘Hell no, I just get one of my swords and fight with the lil’ shit’ and no parents ever spoke to him after that.

Bro had a pet boa constrictor for years. Her name was Georgie. He let Dave play with her all the time when he was little. Looking back, Bro realizes that letting a baby play with a 9 foot long snake was probably not one of his wiser decisions.

One night Bro stayed out a lot later than usual so Dave stayed up, worried as fuck but trying not to show it. When Bro got back home though he was about to tell Dave he should go the fuck to bed when he just threw himself at him mumbling ‘i missed you’ and making Bro feel like an asshole so they had chinese food and fell asleep together.

Whenever Dave turns his music up too loud, an avalanche of smuppets appears out of nowhere on top of him.

One time Dave skipped school and just wandered around instead but Bro was driving past in his truck and found him. He didn’t say anything, just made him get in the truck and went home. Once they got back to the apartment Bro made Dave stand in the corner like a little kid for two hours.

Dave hated brushing his teeth as a child. Bro would have to grab him, throw him over his shoulder and carry him into the bathroom, then stay in there with him blocking the door. Dave would grab his leg and hug him and beg him to let him off but Bro just shook his head and said ‘Not gonna’ work, kiddo’ so Dave would throw a fit and hit him and collapse on the floor and scream...

When Dave was little and Bro went to work, he’d go into his brothers room despite strict warnings not to and he’d curl on Bro’s bed and just cry. Whenever Bro got back he tried to be angry but they both always ended up snuggling on his bed.

Bro had a night-terror once. Dave woke up to Bro shaking him by the shoulder hissing, “Dave, wake up, we have to get out of here.” Bro had a sword and was completely terrified, shaking like a leaf. Dave sat up slowly, and started talking to Bro in a low, calm voice. At first Bro freaked out more and grabbed Dave, but Dave just put his hand over his brother’s and kept talking. Bro...

Dave has dimples when he smiles. When he was younger Bro would tease him about it, which is definitely a factor in the fact that Dave doesn’t smile often.

Dave had a lisp when he was little, and he never really thought anything of it until a kid in his class said, “You talk funny!” Dave talked as little as he could after that, and Bro freaked right the fuck out. He kept asking Dave what was wrong and Dave would just shake his head. Bro finally figured it out one day, and he sat Dave down right away and started helping him learn to...

Once when they were shopping, Bro turned around Dave was gone. He panicked and looked around and eventually found him walking with some dude towards the exit, so instantly Bro started kicking the mans ass. Turns out that was one of Dave’s teachers at school and once he’d found out Dave was lost he was going to take him up to the front desk.

Dave went through an ironic phase where he made friendship bracelets all the time. He gave one to Bro and was totally thrown off when Bro actually genuinely smiled, thanked him, and put it on. Bro still wears it.

Once Dave ran away from home when he was like 7-ish and Bro was so fucking terrified that something had happened to him and spent all night searching the neighborhood and looking for him. When he finally got back, about to call the police, he saw Dave curled up behind the couch and instead of being angry he just wrapped the little boy in a tight hug and mumbled how sorry he was and how much he...

Rose is French and was raised speaking it, so she’s fluent. Dave took a year of French because Rose teased him into it. He complained the whole way through about how stupid and boring it was. Everyone thought that he stopped after that year. A few years later he was video chatting with his friends and Rose switched to French for a moment so that she could insult Dave. Dave rambled back a string...

Dave has asthma. One day while strifing with Bro he had an attack. Bro started to freak out but did his best to remain calm in the situation. He rushed to retrieve Dave’s rescue inhaler from his room and helped Dave use it. After that whenever they would strife Bro would pay extra attention to Dave’s breathing and the air quality.

When Dave was little, Bro lied to him about stupid stuff.
Like he said that tattoos were birthmarks and that people that built houses were half cat and that was why they didn’t fall off of the roofs.

For a short period of time in his younger years, Dave would only eat foods of warm colors. Cheetohs, Macaroni, chicken nuggets, etc. Bro thought this was very adorable and made multiple home videos asking Dave if he would like to eat something that wasn’t a warm color, and plays them whenever they eat dinner together and its warm colored.

Alpha!Dave doesn’t quite remember the beta session, but he doesn’t quite forget either. The entire time that he’s fighting the batterwitch he remembers an old friend’s warnings about her. He can’t put his finger on who it would be, though. Every so often he hears about John Crocker, the legendary comedian, and feels the need to buy whatever DVD or CD it is. He can never bring himself to throw...

When the Striders get upset or really mad or something they just lay facedown on the floor of the apartment. Mumbling, screaming, sobbing, whatever, into the floor. As a toddler, Dave probably did this. And, when Bro couldn’t make him move, he got pissed off and just started throwing a tantrum into the floor too. It became a fucking Strider family tradition.

The striders don’t go swimming because they did when Dave was like 7 and Bro was distracted when he started flirting with some chicks (really hot) so he didn’t notice Dave going to the deep end and then the kid started drowning so Bro panicked and swam as fast as he fucking could and grabbed him and never felt so guilty in his life. He just sat at the side of the pool rocking his...

Bro keeps a running list of celebrities he’s slept with taped to the fridge. Dave has never known if it’s a deep level of irony mocking societies idolization of celebrities or if he’s actually fucked all of those people.

Dave and Bro have a few strange Christmas traditions. First, they don’t get a tree, they buy one of those giant wreaths and put all the presents inside it. Then, every year, along with the meaningful presents, each Strider gets the other one a my little pony, even though they are not bronies, it’s just an ironic thing they do. Lastly, each year Dave buys Bro a box of candy, but wraps it in as...

Dave and Bro have this silly tradition where when they get a pet they name them in themes of snack food. When Dave was younger he had finally convinced Bro to get him a pet but to make sure he could handle it he got him a fish first. Dave then named it Cheeto and ever since…every pet has been named after snack food, primarily chips.

When Dave was little he loved to wear Bro’s hat as much as he could. Bro never really had the heart to make Dave give it back to him because come on the hat was like three sizes too big for him and it was so adorable.

When Dave was little and he and Bro went to Walmart, Dave would go and look through fucking everything in the toy aisles; the Legos, the action figures, the Barbies, everything. Bro would just meander behind him, but always stop to look at ponies. Meanwhile, Dave would grab two lightsabers with this shit-eating grin on his face. He’d round the corner and chuck one at Bro’s head (Bro always...

I actually really like this headcanon even though it hurts because I mean with all the shit Dave will have seen after the game ends it’s not that much of a stretch to think that he would turn out that way.

One day, while having frozen burritos and cheetos for dinner, a young Dave suggested that, since they didn’t have any cheese or anything to put on them, they try putting cheetos inside the burritos.
Bro dubbed them burrcheetos and they’ve been eating them regularly ever since.
