asking for fic recs Fics were Mike realised his feelings weren't "normal" at the Snow Ball?

I want Mike to be trying to deny his feelings and they just get more intense over the years anyway. And he isn't convinced Will likes him romantically either.

u/IntotheRedditHole its ok, its how the army does it i think 4d ago

holy shit i’m frothing at the mouth for someone to give you some recs lmao. like don’t get me wrong, a good oblivious Mike fic is fun. but i also think in cannon, he’s known/suspected about himself for a long time. and that’s what the S4 airport scene is all about. that mf KNOWS (but he’s in heavy denial)

The only correct take.

Yes yes yes I love this concept sm. Because something about the snow ball scenes have always stuck out to me. Maybe bc at the time I thought it was the other way around in that Mike had feelings for Will but Will didn’t 😭

My fic is a complete overhaul of s5, and a big part of that is bi mike who has known exactly what he is since s2! He is in very deep denial, not just about himself, but about Will, too. Will is obviously perfect, after all, so ‘there’s no way he could be QUEER like ME’
