Wilson is unreasonably cute when he's frustrated or pissed off about something. He's usually so composed so for me seeing him being two seconds away from strangling someone has me clawing at the bars of my enclosure, desperate to get out
anyone upset abt macdennis not being canon confuses me.
the whole point of this ship is that its already canon just not in an explicit way - and thats where the comedy of macden moments comes from.
the absolute insanity of frank v russia is funny. dennis convincing himself and mac that remote controlling anal beads up his ass is not gay and for a trivial thing such as getting mac out of the apartment is absurd. the viewer sees this absurdity and finds it funny.
thats been the gist of macden throughout all these seasons. every moment with them is romantic or sexual in some way but its not acknowledged by themselves and thats whats humorous about their dynamic.
not to say that them going farther with it would be wrong or unfunny, i mean we literally know that dennis put his balls in macs mouth ehile he slept and practically controlled his masturbation with anal beans whoch is all objectively gay but played off because these are insane people and its funny that way. them having sex wouldnt even be a shock to me and it could for sure just be played off in a funny way and not ruin any dynamic or the comedy of the show.
explorations of their dynamic and their respective mentalities regarding each other without the goal of making a funny show can be easily found in fanfiction or headcannon posts. and to me that is much more cathartic to read than a relationship on screen. i mean the waitress and charlie sleeping together wasnt funny to me and i dont want a repeat of that. i do think that a kiss could be done without humourous intent like in gang tends bar with the rocket launcher, but i dont see macden kissing as the same as making them be in an explicit relationship like maureen and dennis were for example.
this side of the fandom avoids all the creepy violent fantasy stuff around dennis’s character like the plague i guess either to woobify him or make up for all the “dennis is a serial killer” character reduction happening on the other side. but i think there’s an untapped goldmine in there with exploring his psyche and i think it could be a fun layer especially in the macden dynamic?
obviously i don’t think he’s capable of being that violent irl or would ever want to. but there’s a undeniable amount of depravity swimming around in his head. a combination of a trauma induced power trip, a curiosity about the fragility of bodies and minds, and a general self hatred that places himself as the monster of his own fantasy. he thinks about decapitation. he dreams about pulling the heart out of someone’s chest and eating it. when it’s busy at the bar and he needs to tune the world out he probably traps himself in his head thinking about stuff like how much pressure a human windpipe can withstand. or what a person would look like with their skin peeled off. what mac would look like. would his muscles and bone structure still hold up? would he still look that good? maybe even better.. without that stupid tattoo. just flesh and blood and bone, naked and as pure as he could be, a purity he’s been chasing his whole life. would mac let him do it? they’re passing thoughts but sometimes he whispers them in bed when he’s talking dirty and he gets that calm, lifeless look in his eyes. it’s terrifying and unsettling but the sex is tender and gentle. sometimes in the aftermath mac gets worried and asks if he means all that stuff he says about wanting to slice into him and watch him bleed out while they’re making love. dennis gets so offended that mac would even ask. he doesn’t talk to him the whole next day and sulks in the fact that no one understands him. mac ends up having to be the one to apologize.
Less art of Mabel forgiving Bill first of the whole family. More of her being the last, if ever. More of her eating him like a corn chip.
