[Regrettably, this is the young man Will is smitten with. So of course he laughs for like 7 minutes.]

wow
you've totally changed my mind
you can't give that up
how can i stand firm in the face of such style?
impossible.

[micycle]

[Mike doesn't even notice the seven minutes because of course someone walks into the kitchen and he has to chew them out and then flee.]

man just wait til you see my beard
coincidentally i need to go buy some cotton candy before i can show it to you though

[deadboywalking]

[Out there being a professional, yelling at people, being bossy. Will is so proud.]

totally unrelated cotton-candy-buying, got it
my face is gonna get all sticky when i see you
cause i'm gonna
kiss your beard
or
something [Master of romance, right here.]

[micycle]

[Oh, wow. That's high-key the flirtiest thing anyone's ever said to Mike. Consider him flustered!]

just don't get it to spitty or anything
it might dissolve
which is a totally normal thing for a beard to do

[deadboywalking]

mike i'm not gonna like
lick your face or something





do you WANT me to lick your face??? [Is this a requirement of dating? Because Will isn't sure he's a fan.]

[micycle]

[Excuse him a second while he has a heart attack.]



i mean
no

just like




when people in movies and stuff kiss
it looks kind of spitty

[deadboywalking]

[He's not shaming, he's just!! Making sure!!]

well.
yeah.
ours aren't, though.


are we doing it wrong?

[micycle]

no!

[Mike is sure about one (1) thing.]


like i guess when you get older you're supposed to kiss with your mouth open
and use your tongue and stuff
but that always sounds really gross

[deadboywalking]

okay good
cause i like it
how it is now

that sounds really unsanitary.
what if someone has like
mono??

is that why they call it the kissing disease????

[micycle]

me too

and yeah i guess??
one of nancy's friends got it from sharing a drink though
so i guess you can get it all sorts of ways

[An expert in many fields.]

[deadboywalking]

i like it
a lot
like a lot a lot
is that
okay?

oh.
we share drinks all the time.
like everyone in the house does except steve because "germs".

[micycle]

yeah of course it's okay!
i like it a lot a lot too
like a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot

and none of us have ever gotten mono
so it must be safe

[deadboywalking]

you're such a dork
a lot to the nth power
or whatever the math word is

okay cool
maybe we're mono-immune
maybe we CURED MONO

[micycle]

oh man
we're gonna be famous scientists

except that probably means we have to go back to school
and learn more math stuff
like nth

[deadboywalking]

naahhhhhhhhh nevermind then
you can be a famous scientist and i'll be your secret assistant
get you secret ingredients like eye of newt and all that
for your secret potions

[micycle]

wait why are you my secret assistant
and why am i still a famous scientist
i don't want to go back to school

[deadboywalking]

because that makes my ultimate reveal even more dramatic
no you have to because you're taller
you loom better
you have to loom, as a scientist
gotta make the school sacrifice for science

[micycle]

will you start riding a motorcycle

[deadboywalking]

YES
i'll get a leather jacket and everything!!

[deadboywalking]

you know!!!

[Oh god, Will is having to sit on a park bench and cover his red face with snow to calm down. He'd always thought this, of course, but he'd never really said anything. And now it had sort of...slipped out, while trying to avoid the Steve-Mike comparison.]

you're like
tall
and you have the same hair
and you're
you know
cool

[micycle]

[Mike is just casually touching his hair right now to make sure he hasn't dramatically misunderstood it.]

uh you probably need to get your eyes checked


but thanks

who does that make you then??

[deadboywalking]

[Someday Deerington is going to have some kind of event where people see themselves as others see them, and Mike is going to be shook.]

one of those ewok guys
