Could you pretty please grace us with some soft MacDennis headcanons? 😊
Oh, absolutely. I’m emotionally compromised by Rob’s instagram story, so I’m in the mood.
•On a few of Mac and Dennis’ date nights, they get drunk enough for Mac to convince Dennis to take him to a karaoke bar. Dennis agrees, on the condition that he gets to sing and Mac doesn’t hog the microphone the whole night. Every time, Mac doesn’t let him get a single song in, and most of the few hours is spent on Mac trying desperately to find some song he doesn’t actually know the name of. Eventually, he settles on one and sings until he’s hoarse. Dennis beams the entire time, and in those moments, he doesn’t think he’s ever been happier.
•Mac has a short attention span when it comes to most things, but he and Dennis talk for hours on end in their apartment. Some weekends they lay on the floor of the living room and just talk, about anything and everything that crosses their minds. Conversation comes so easy when they’re together, and it helps them forget their problems better than booze does. Dennis sometimes pretends him and Mac are the only two people in the world. He’d like that, he thinks more than once.
•Dennis gets cold often, and he tries to wear long sleeves and layers to stop himself from getting too uncomfortable, but he really can’t stand take the cold. If Mac ever sees him shivering in their apartment he immediately makes Dennis tea—and adds way too much sugar—and wraps him in blankets. Dennis acts annoyed and lets the tea get cold, but sometimes he plays up how chilly he is so Mac will take care of him.
•They both leave their bedroom doors cracked at night, especially if one of them has had a rough day, so they can slip into each other’s rooms easily. Mac usually climbs in bed with Dennis, but occasionally, Dennis will crawl into bed with Mac, and silently as he can, and turn to face him. Even in the middle of the night when it’s too dark to see and he knows Mac is asleep, he can’t help but feel comforted by Mac’s presence.
•They alternate who gets to decide what their monthly date nights are going to be, but they usually end up either going to the same restaurants as always or going to some bar across down where nobody knows them to get drunk. On rare occasions, Mac has an idea or a craving for some specific food or just picks a place because he knows Dennis will like it. Dennis tries to pick refines places but he usually ends up caving and picking something he knows Mac will like. They both know that they understand what the other likes, but it doesn’t make those nights any less special.
•Mac tries his best to get Dennis to open up to him emotionally, because he believes that it’s always better to talk about what’s bothering you. Dennis usually just laughs at him or rolls his eyes, but one night they’re watching a movie and suddenly Dennis grabs Mac’s hand and just starts crying and rambling to him and they talk until the movie’s over and into the night, and Dennis falls asleep on Mac’s shoulder. Mac doesn’t have the heart to wake him up and they sleep there, curled up together on a couch way too small for them.
