I would die for them

He pulls Britta into his interests, like the wishing pool and inspector spacetime, and Britta really puts effort into supporting him, but he doesn't show any support for her interests in return. Like in Herstory of Dance, he's just bored of her? He makes no attempt to help Britta plan the dance even though this is something Britta really cares about. And when Britta vents to Troy about their "phallo-centric" history professor, Troy deadass interrupts her and ditches her to hang out with Abed. Like?? Show some respect. Not to mention how uncomfortable and sad Britta looks when Troy remembers freaky friday with Abed but not their one year.

but there's a moment just after Abed does his Don Draper impression with Annie (during Physical Education) where everyone starts suggesting who Abed should be doing an impression of (Shirley says Mike Brady, Britta says Jo from Facts of Life).

and I love how Troy says Calvin (Calvin and Hobbes), who obviously didn't flirt with anyone - he just spent all of his time with his best friend (another thing mentioned by Troy). I find this really indicative of Troy's desire to spend time with Abed, and focus less on any other possible romantic interest - in some way, he wishes Abed to do the same; he doesn't want him to make a Don Draper impression or something, he just wants him to be his playful friend forever, just the two of them, without changing to impress someone else.

Way back in July I made a Jabed fic rec post (here) but in the 2 months since then (r we sure its september already?) the tag has pretty much doubled and there’s so much good shit out there that I’m doing this again. Venture below the cut for the list, since it got longg. I like quoting u guys.
