YES YES YES YES YES YES

the great piercing battle of 200X. michael fought well, he fought hard, and he won. but with what concequence...

Thank you to @ottpop for the inspiration and @mediumgayitalian for the lovely story!

Jake is the only one who Michael doesn't mind being flirted with.

Really, Michael gets almost reversely jealous when someone else tries to flirt with him. Even before him and Jake were officially dating.

He didn't think much of it at the time. He just thought Jake was playing around when he did it, and he just was better at it than others.

Lee had to explain to him that maybe only liking when one specific person playfully flirts with you might not be very platonic.

Jake does get actually jealous though. He'll glare daggers with anyone who flirts with Michael. He does not hide it as well as he think he does.

His siblings tease him constantly, especially when he's pouting and glaring across the campfire at someone trying to flirt with Michael and his siblings are just-

"How has no one else figured out you two are a thing yet-"

They're a definition of hiding in plan sight. The closet is glass but by gods the rest of the camp are birds.

Jake is so obviously down bad for Michael it's almost embarrassing.

Michael doesn't even have to do much and Jake already looking at him with heart eyes.

Dudes got it bad dhdgd

When they actually get together it does not change either XD

They're at the amphitheater where Jake's sitting down on one row why Michael's on the one above and Michael's just absent mindedly playing with his curls and Jake just fully melted against him. He falls back with his head in Michael's lap and Michael just laughs and Jake's just completely enamored. Leaning into every touch.

Jake fell so hard for Michael, Michael has him completely wrapped and everyone finds it hilarious.

This is them-

A fun little (BIG) fic about the life of my fav short archer Michael, with many ups and downs and all the normal angst and fluff that I normally throw in

aka, Michael's life from the age of 9 to when he's.... 23? (I haven't got there yet so don't hold me to it lol)

Very unfinished, updates will start fairly scheduled, but I will probably have a massive writers block and make updates sporadic at some point, so be warned!

When a fic doesn’t fit my head canons but it’s well-written

Jake is really bad at restraining from kissing Michael.

Whether it be on the lips,cheek, head,wherever, he just love kissing Michael.

Michael likes to tease him sometimes about it and uses it to his advantage. Like withholding kisses until he gets healed or whatever when he's obviously ignoring his injuries. Having him work for one etc.

Jake pouts but he actually doesn't mind it, Michael isn't a touchy person, so anytime he let's Jake give him any form of affection is a win in his book.

Michael is a great kisser too,always gentle with it. Really for how much attitude and sass he gives in his daily life, he's still very gentle when it comes to affection.

It always makes Jake melt. Michael cups his face in his hands, his touch gentle and warm. His voice quiet when he tells Jake he loves him. In some ways it can feel like Michael is giving Jake the comfort to pull away if he wants to. As if he's still not sure Jake truly adores him like he says. Like he doesn't want to make him uncomfortable.

Of course Jake never pulls away unless he has to. He adore these moments. The times he manages to pull Michael away from work. To unwind and relax. He wraps his arms around Michael. He runs his hands through Michael's hair. He tells him so surely he loves him. That he can rest. He doesn't have to burn himself out to keep others warm.

Michael absolutely melts into Jake's arms, smiling into his kiss and leans into his touch.

Michael's love is a warmth that brushes against you yet is so noticeable to those who look for it. Jake's is a warmth that surrounds you,entirely wrapping around you. Letting you fall into it.

Michael loves like sunlight. Jake loves like fire
