Have u seen this? Will is soooo UGHHHHJGGEH

Not only did this video recently come to my attention, where we see will smith hockey physically beating on a poor helpless rookie in order to make sure he can sit next to his Macklin, followed by a super smiley little chit chat:

But we also got Macklin “I’m just gonna squeeeeeze in here” Celebrini sitting on Toff and Will’s lap so that he can secure his spot next to bbf. What follows the lap dance is THEE smelling salt ritual of all rituals where Will sticks his wet glove hands on Mack’s mouth/nose and Mack says “more please” and goes back in again.

We also have exhibit C, this cute giggly salt ritual where Mack literally cannot get close enough and sneezes like a baby kitten

We got this cutesy lil bench pic

We got Will interrupting Mack’s post game interview by running in front of the camera.

ANNNNNND we got WSH casually kissing his chain pregame, probably feeling that catholic guilt and asking for forgiveness for all the gay shit he is about to pull with his boy.

Have u seen this? Will is soooo UGHHHHJGGEH

Think about it:

Point 1: During the exit interviews, Will mentioned that he and Mack are considering training in Boston and Vancouver for a week each. Of course, Will Smith the planner already has their schedules mapped out. (Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if all his hangouts with friends are scheduled in Google Calendar too.) Based on the timeline, I’m guessing the training starts sometime in July, which means that’s probably when they’ll see each other again.

Point 2: There isn’t really a reason for Will to fly all the way to Vancouver just for Mack’s birthday. Hear me out: that’s a five/six-hour flight just to wish him a happy birthday and have dinner together. Then what? Fly straight back to Boston afterward? What else would he even be doing in Vancouver when they’ve already talked about their offseason plans, including when they’d be visiting each other’s hometowns and probably what they’d be doing together? There are also plenty of other possible explanations for why he’s not there. Maybe: 1) Mack has a family trip planned for his birthday, 2) Mack already has plans with friends in Vancouver, or 3) Mack simply has other commitments for his birthday.

Point 3: I think people are putting way more importance on birthdays than Will and Mack probably do. Plenty of people celebrate with their friends and family before or after the actual day because of travel, work, or other commitments. I’ve done it myself. Will and Mack can always celebrate when they see each other again. I feel like the expectation comes from Will and Mack being together on Will’s birthday, but relationships don’t operate on a birthday-for-birthday exchange system 😭

Point 4: Guys, it would honestly be weirder if Will and Mack were constantly hounding each other’s attention both during the season and the offseason 😭. As much as we joke about them being co-dependent, there comes a point where that wouldn’t be healthy anymore. They’re allowed to spend time with other people, especially their family and friends whom they barely get to see during the season. We can RPF all we want and speculate about whether they’re dating or not, but even if they are (or aren’t), their entire worlds don’t revolve around each other.

And that doesn’t make them any less close, or make whatever relationship they have any less meaningful. That just means they have lives outside of each other, which is exactly what we’d want for them. Healthy relationships leave room for family, friends, personal interests, and time apart.

Point 5: I also don’t think Will’s TikTok is him being shady or sending some hidden message. It’s literally the Finals game. That’s probably all there is to it. For all we know, he could’ve already greeted Mack over FaceTime, texted him privately, or spent half the day yapping to him about whatever he’s planning to do in NYC. Not everything has to be public for it to happen.

if you don't think someone can have other friends in a relationship you might need to re-evaluate yourself idk i'm not trying to be rude just being realistic
