I 100% agree that Gillion only kissed Chip to solve the puzzle. However, relistening to that scene, as Grizzly was explaining how the pathway opens, Bizly says that “Chip doesn’t notice” I take that as: “Chip is too focused on Gill and having a gay panic over him that literally nothing else is happening around him to him.” I take that kiss as the moment Chip fell in love with Gillion, and it hit him like a ton of bricks.
HOWEVER, Chip has been trying to ignore those feelings either because internalized homophobia in general or if we’re going the trans Chip route, he feels that liking guys is to “feminine.”
In any case, that’s probably why he was so fixated on Edyn, because they said that she looked EXACTLY like Gill. Cause I’m pretty sure he started crushing over her before he even spoke to her (don’t quote me on that). Which yeah, I get it, people can develop crushes on people based on appearance alone, but like…
With a girl that looks EXACTLY like the dude that you’re feeling strange things about which is weird because he’s a dude, you’d probably justify like “oh, he’s just good looking, aesthetically-wise, because like, this chick is hot too, but she’s a chick so I wanna date her, cause I’m not gay for my friend or anything.”
Idk if that makes any sense.

However, Gillion has (in my head) gradually fallen in love with Chip, not even realizing it until Chip is gone. I think once this fight ends, Gill will be horrified and worried once the adrenaline has worn off and Star is doing the best to get Chip to regain consciousness.
And when Chip does, Gillion will probably hug the living daylights out of him and ball his eyes out because he took Chip for granted and almost lost him without realizing the way he felt towards the bastard.
This probably makes no sense, but whatevs.
i wanna preface this by saying i love fish and chips and im insane about it and oughhh if you are a Certified FnC Person this may hurt you but then again, your delusions may also shield you.
the Nat 20 kiss has only been interpreted as romantic so far (at least as far as I've seen) but I think we really need to consider how little Gillion knows about Oversea culture as a general rule. We see a lot in the early episodes (and even in some recent ones) that Gillion doesn't fully understand the way humans go about their relationships. He knows there's romance of course, but his knowledge of how they show affection seems to be pretty limited. At the point in the story when the crew was at the Isle of Ire, Gillion probably hadn't seen much of Oversea relationships, especially considering how most of the Riptide crew's time was spent sailing in isolation. All Gillion knew going into the sanctuary was that the door required an act of true love, not specifically the romantic kind. I think it's pretty clear that the co-captains loved each other a lot at that point in the story, at least platonically, and I think the Roll for Genuity really could have just been how genuinely they loved each other, in any way (up for interpretation obviously). Obviously Gillion has seen people kiss before, and most likely understood it as an act of affection, but not necessarily as romantic. Gillion very well could have kissed Chip with genuine love, simply thinking that it was a simple form of affection, like hugging. Chip obviously also loves Gill, but he wasn't the one who initiated the kiss (it's not clear whether he kissed back or not) so we can't be sure if Chip's love for Gill is platonic or romantic.
holy shit did that even make sense??? im so sorry yall it was just on my mind lol

Okay, I’m thinking about the fact that the way Gillion flavors Detect Good and Evil as sniffing out whatever, and I just realized the fact that that means Chip reeks of evil to Gillion now, and how the hell are they gonna be able to cuddle now that Chip smells like something Gill was taught to destroy and-
