A concept; Michael wafting a Jeremy shirt in front of doggo Jeres face in hopes he’ll pick up a scent,,.. Jeremy looks at the camera
hjJHKJFSD THATS HILARIOUS. i can see this scene kinda playing out like. michael is in his room rambling to jeremy about jeremy and he just kinda starts going getting softer, looking at jeremy intensely. “jeremy is missing.” michael says. “jeremy is missing and i now conveniently have a dog.”
jeremy perks up from where he was laying on the floor because holy fuck.
“jeremy is missing and i have a dog so—” michael scrambles to where jeremy sits, nodding, tail wagging enthusiastically. michael is putting it together, michael is figuring it out, michael is a genius. “that means! that means—”
“—that means you can help me find jeremy!”
michael is an idiot.
michael is rambling about how this totally makes sense because duh in all movies the dog can always catch a scent and find the missing person and while thats happening jeremy just trots over to michael’s desk and thunks his head against it.
(it’s frustrating and mildly entertaining until michael comes back with a shirt and, huh, jeremy’s been wondering where that went. he waves the shirt in front of jeremy’s snout and this is ridiculous so jeremy just grabs it with his teeth and runs circles around michael, trying to get the message across. this is my shirt because im not a dog im jeremy---
and then michael is trying to get jeremy to stop and his voice is laced with concern, maybe a little anger, and hes saying “hey, careful with that! bad dog! dont---”
michael manages to get the shirt back from jeremy. he holds it close to himself. “you have to be careful, okay? you can break my stuff, but not his. i still have to return this when---.”
michael sits on the edge of the bed, talking softer now. “---when he comes back.”
jeremy feels shame curl in his gut because here he is ruining everything as usual but he pushes that back for now to focus on michael. he trots over to him and lays his head in michael’s lap in apology. michael scritches jeremy’s head and manages a shaky smile.
“he’s coming back, right?” michael asks.
he’s right here, jeremy says but michael can only hear jeremy’s soft whine.)
