#will the canon gay and mike the somehow unconfirmed gay disaster

[ghostlycleric]

I’m sorry I can’t keep telling myself this moment wasn’t intentional.

I know he’s pointing at the counter, BUT THEY WERE JUST THERE. THEY JUST SAT DOWN AFTER GETTING THEIR SKATES. FROM THE COUNTER.

Will nudging his leg makes sense (getting his attention because Mike just looked away). After that, he had absolutely no reason to point. Mike knows where the counter is. He could’ve just said what he said, nudged him, and maybe nodded in the direction of the counter.

Did they really do that just to have Mike panic about Will actually giving him attention😭? Why is it framed like Will is holding his chin? Will literally had to lean towards him to align his hand with his face like that. He also had to move extremely fast to fit that moment in before an extra blocked the view.

Why does Mike even look to Will for an answer in the first place? El’s the one that said he needed socks, Will hadn’t been talking to him the entire day, and El is supposedly the one that “goes there all the time”—Will is not.

He looked at Will because he wanted him to answer the question. Mike wanted his attention so bad, and when he finally got some of it, it was that moment. No wonder he came back trying to make that stupid sock joke, and no wonder he looked so upset when it didn’t land. He almost had Will, at least he thought he did.
