Remember in the books when howl said he was in love with lettie (the real lettie) and Michael at that time was courting lettie (who’s actually Martha) said that he wanted to dye howl blue after he heard him say that and let me just rephrase what he said:
Howl: I’m in love with LETTIE HATTER but she doesn’t want me.
Michael: thank god
Howl: also there’s another guy who she loves and I’m gonna break his neck
Michael: wait r u talking about THE Lettie Hatter?
Howl: yea..
Michael: oh
Also Michael: fuck it *cocks gun*
