the apple as the forbidden fruit. mac only allowing dennis to eat an apple if it’s peeled. mac denying he’s gay. it isn’t gay to make schemes where your best friend is your boyfriend. it isn’t gay to try to kiss your best friend. it isn’t gay because you peeled off the shiny red layer, because you have plausible deniability.
#gay mac wow#‘apple peel = confronting gayness’ metaphor become more real when frank spits out the apple when mac tells him it’s filled with toxins#and when dennis throws that tantrum trying to get dee to peel him an apple#‘but mac always peels my apples. i am not ALLOWED (even tho ik the apple can’t really be poisonous)’#=#‘mac always does the work of denying he’s gay. i don’t have to do the work (even tho ik that denying gayness doesn’t make it less gay)’#i’m prob either reaching#or this was said a decade ago#iasip#macden#macdennis#dash rambles
