Typing my two friends (with enneagram)

Hello! I am curious as to what personality type my two college friends have, and would like some input from you guys. Here are the descriptions of them below:

Friend #1 (male)

- Very calm and passive; seldom gets upset over things in life and rarely cares enough situations to react much to them. Was passive enough to put up with a turbulent, unstable relationship with an ex that included some form of abuse and tried to soothe her as she dealt with her psychological problems.
-Described himself as being "emotionally-dead" inside and therefore not caring for things as much anymore. Sees himself as a slow "turtle" who doesn't easily get roused.
-Also described himself as having little identity of his own, especially during his teen years, and instead choosing to act like and adopt traits from those around him during interactions.
-Very flexible and adaptable to situations. Nothing seems to fluster or perturb him and he deals with things in a calm, collected way.
- Sees things as neither black or white, but through different shades of gray; has a neutral opinion about most people and refuses to be swayed by biases in judgement. Views morality in the same context.
- Hobbies include video games, surfing the web, and to, to lesser extent, thinking of sex.
- Although he had a constant focus on sex as a teenager when he was in a past relationship, he now claims to not be seeking or prioritizing romance at the moment. He wants to focus in his grades instead and has a practical view on money being more important than love because of the security it offers.
-Has trouble explaining ideas because his thought process is so abstract and scattered; one thought connects to another and he tends to brainstorm out loud.
-Wants to be a therapist because he likes listening to people's problems, even though he doesn't always know the right thing to say; is empathetic to an extent and claims he wants to help people individually, on a smaller, more personal level. If not a therapist, would have wanted to be a police officer or in the airforce.
- Is much more practical than I am and knows when to daydream and when to focus. Pays enough attention in class to sometimes succeed without even studying, and while internally messy, keeps his environment organized.
-Is a logical person and self-procclaimed atheist who believes things with scientific evidence are the most reliable source of guidance.
- Does not like small children or relate to them well, because he cannot connect with them on an intellectual level; claims that while he can tolerate his nephews, he wishes they acted more like adults.
- Dyes his hair strange, unusual colors simply because "he can" and feels it "looks cool". Usually wears the same hoodie and t-shirts however and does not care much for expensive clothing or fashion.
-Is a minimalist who wants a simple lifestyle and wants to live in a small, comfortable home in a cheap, affordable setting, yet still wants just enough money with a college degree to do "fun" things like traveling and exploring.
-Does not interact much with family during social gatherings, although he loves them unconditionally, and considers himself closer to some of his friends than family and relatives. Seeks a person who is similar to him in interests and attitude when it comes to potential relationships ("birds of a feather flock together", as he says).
-Very open and unrestrained when it comes to discussion; shares information easily about himself and likes to talk about many things at a time with people. Doesn't initiate frequently with people or approach first however, but doesn't mind being spoken to.
-Shows being surrounded by positive energy and describes himself as a "proton". Does not like too much darkness or negativity from people.

Friend #2 (female)
-Somewhat shy and awkward; has trouble getting her thoughts across and frequently loses her train of thought. Also gets uncomfortable easily and has anxiety issues.
-Quite lazy and sluggish when it comes to accomplishing tasks. Although detailed and meticulous when it comes to things, never finishes them and procrastinates a lot. Also overindulgent with some things such as comfort foods, which is why she is rather overweight. Tires easily and not very athletic.
-Bases her morality on her faith (Christianity) and seeks out people with similar values to hers. Doesn't try to push others forcefully to agree with her views.
-Bases accepting of people and relatively non-judgemental; doesn't always know exactly how to comfort you or the right things to say, but will listen as best as she can.
- Likes comfort and security; imagines working in a structured office setting and appreciates the stability it offers.
-Not very opinionated and prefers not to discuss or give advice on controversial matters. Doing so brings her discomfort, and she would rather have somebody more knowledgeable or experienced give advice on certain subjects.
- Prefers the comfort and familiarity of being close to home and family; chose to attend college only two hours away from her hometown so that she could visit frequently. Not very adventurous or fond of air travel.
-Shows she cares through small acts of service, such as carrying things for her friends, paying occasionally for their food, or allowing them to borrow things from her.
-Not too verbal in terms of sharing her feelings, or outwardly emotionally expressive in general. Seems to keep feelings to herself, although she does quietly show empathy for people.
-Tomboyish and unfeminine in style; dresses for comfort and likes to express herself through little accessories that are meaningful to her. In terms of hobbies, enjoys reading comics and watching cartoons. Also enjoys science fiction and some types of fantasy novels.

What do you guys believe their mbti and enneagram types are?

I suspect Friend #1 is an INxP 9w1, although I can't decide whether he is an INFP or INTP. Friend #2 however seems like an ISFP 6w5. Do you guys agree?
