Probably be one of those bad boys who spend all their time with their gang and who are completely oblivious to the romance aspect of the story for the entire story making the reader scream. Then at the end, hint that I knew she liked me all along to make readers scream because there will be no more story.

First thing Iām going to do is get a feel for how the body works. I mean everything from the explicitly mechanical to endurance trials, etc. I wonāt be confused about attraction since Iāve jumped through those hoops before, so half the story lines mean nothing to me. Then once I assess exactly what and where Iām at, Iām going to work on improving my life if society isnāt up to the standards Iām accustomed to.
Further out than that, it would depend on if Iāve been thrown into a novel, if others have and left records behind, and how willing to accept that change the society is? I mean, if I can swing a magic sword in an arc and behead half a dozen monsters in a swing, I sure as hell will need to keep the ability up AND simultaneously will be looking to not have to so that for a living because eff that.
If Iām alone out in the wilderness when I ācome into beingā, Iām going to have to do a snare for meat and start doing a toxicology test on olantlife, since I canāt guarantee any edibles here are the same as there.
But that is just general. Bad boy in highschool on this planet is stupid. Iād have to go through school all over again. High school QB? If Iām barely 6 ft tall, Iām quitting the position. Pros donāt do well that short and Iām not that in love with any sport.
I would hope that I donāt wake up in the middle of action, you know. I donāt mind the morning after walk of shame, but I would be hella confused if it was midst act.

Going through high school all over again is a terrifying thought.

I missed out on dating the quarterback because I was āShEās dIfFeReNtā. The idea of going back and becoming that quarterback, having to ask a girl like me out?
Hell no.

People donāt realize how seriously intimidating it is to be the one who asks the other person out, and in all those stories notice how the couple kind of fell together because of circumstances?
My parents were highschool sweethearts. Mom tells this story if how she decided to be cute when a guy asked if he could sit next to her on the bus (before dad), and since he didnāt get a straight up yes and was intimidated, he didnāt sit with her. So she decided then that if a cute guy asked again, sheād straightforwardly say yes instead of being a smartass. And so, she sat with dad.
All these stories center around the guys persuits of the girl. Thatās a shit ton of pressure to put on a child.
Itād be bad enough to just yell out in the hallways āIām not asking people out. You interested? Ask me. Iām not saying no.ā And letting chaos ensue.

Nathan Chen is 5ā5" and doing just fine (he is exceptionally good boy thoughā¦ to a frightening degree. have no idea about high school, but we all know he is at Yale). Uno is 5ā2" iirc (more of a bad boy I guess).

Not soccer.
American Football Quarterbacks find it difficult to see over their linemen to throw a ball downfield if they are under 6ft. Got to remember that the guys blocking them (and their view) are 6ā5", quite often.
The defensive (guys who tackle the quarterback) and offensive line (blocking the view but protecting) are usually 300 lbs. Quarterbacks over 6ā are easily in the 250 lbs range, but the shorter you get the less likely that is to be muscle, at that weight. Dad is 6ā and was a center and fought like hell to break 200 lbs when they started introducing the 300 lbs monsters.
So, if I was shunted into the highschool QB bad boy, if I was undersized, Iād quit. The risk of injury is too high with added difficulty to compete and being shoved in a body that quickly without the knowledge backing the muscle memory, Iām going to get paralyzed.

See, my dad was a Center, but he also played Tennis scarily enough (had a habit of playing closer to the net because he could hit a ball harder than the average tennis player) and was in track and field for Shot-put? Hammerthow? I donāt think he touched javelin.
So, most football players in highschool play more than one sport, with baseball being far more common. Shorter quicker guys go for soccer or swim team.
But from longer conversations with dad about why he didnāt want his kids in football but wouldnāt stop them is because there was a kid paralyzed the years my brother was playing (as well as my dadās spinal fractures), and it caused to bad rivalry between the schools that made it necessary to keep extra security at the games and the coaches were constantly having to ride herd on their kids.
You have to have a passion for it, and if I stepped through to that type of ābad boyā, Iād quit without any guilt.

Itās not hard. 2 teams line up against each other. Linemen are the Quarterbackās team. Center is the person in the middle of that line, the weird guy who hands the football between his legs so it looks like heās laying an egg in the Quarterbackās hands, then bumrushes the guys across from him on the other line (defensive line is the guys without a quarterback). Quarterback is the biggest person to protect on the field, and often has as much say as a coach for each time they line up against each other. The whole job is for the quarterback to either throw the ball to a running back (a person who runs down the field like a chicken with their head cut off, but without the ball) or to hand the ball off to someone closer and let them run for him (often another running back: so they run down the field like a chicken with their head cut off, but they have the ball this time). They just do this repeatedly until they either score or trade with the other team for their turn with a quarterback and linemen.
