and if i told you mack got into his first fight to defend will’s honor and played the rest of the game like his life fucking depended on it to bring the sharks back from being down 5-1 for the greatest comeback in sharks history ALL FOR WILL SMITH HOCKEY i’d be fucking crucified but it happened. in pittsburgh.

[celebrinisword]

i wish i could write but writing is lowkey hard so here's this brain dump abt the toffolis and willmack instead:

it's early on in toff's time with the sharks that cat picks up on just how far gone will and mack are for each other. she doesn't think they know it themselves yet- but when she brings it up to toff before bed one night he just laughs because “yeah those two are something else, aren’t they?” 

everything she learns about the pair only serves to endear her more. she pushes toff to sleepover after a game and is delighted to hear that they order literal milk and cookies. she invites them for dinner at her and toff’s place and laughs so hard that her stomach hurts. she and toff may have agreed to not meddle in whatever it is that’s going on between them but she can’t help but recommend nice restaurants for will to add to their dinner scrapbook (ones she deliberately knows will impress mack). she especially can’t help it when she’s had a front row seat to the way that will smiles at mack, all fond. or how mack relaxes in will’s presence - allowed to just be a teenager instead of the face of a budding franchise. they may be idiots. but they're her and tyler's idiots. 

so when will's wisdom tooth gets infected and needs to be taken out asap, cat volunteers to go with him. after the surgery she wrestles all 6ft of a doped-up will into her car and tries her best to keep him from disturbing his stitches too much as he sings along (badly) to top-40 radio. she's pulling into the pharmacy to pick up his prescription when will finally puts her suspicions to words, muffled around the gauze packed into his mouth. 

“i love him"

“who, hon?”

“mack.”

“yeah? me too.”

“no-” he argues, eyes suddenly brimming with tears, “no, i love him. like really love him.” he’s started crying in earnest now, shaky, loopy sniffles escaping around the bloodied gauze. cat puts a hand on his knee soothingly. 

“it’s okay. i know you do, sweetheart.”

“you do?”

“of course, ty and i-“

“toff knows?” will looks horrified, as if sobered at the thought, “oh my god.”

_

toff and mack get back from practice a while later, after she's settled a drowsy will on the couch. he's been dozing on and off for about an hour but promptly rouses at the sound of mack's voice. that soft smile once again appears on his face as he blinks slowly up at mack. (her and ty have privately dubbed it his 'mack smile’.)

"they've got you on the good stuff, eh smitty?"

will starts mumbling something unintelligible in response and mack settles down next to him to stop him from fussing with the gauze. cat and toff excuse themselves under the guise of making dinner (but mostly to give them privacy). when they peek back into the den a short while later, will's out like a light against mack's shoulder and mack's watching him sleep with such a tender expression that cat's heart nearly melts.

mack startles slightly when toff breaks the silence, letting him know there's a plate for him (and applesauce for will) in the kitchen when they're ready.

"let us know if you two need anything," cat adds, and she means it - she'd do absolutely anything for these two.

the two-headed calf by laura gilpin tomorrow when the farm boys find this freak of nature, they will wrap his body in newspaper and carry him to the museum. but tonight he is alive and in the north field with his mother. It is a perfect summer evening: the moon rising over the orchard, the wind in the grass. and as he stares into the sky, there are twice as many stars as usual.

gagged by the idea of will going to zara of all places to buy himself slightly differently versions of everything mack already owns

[strawberrysunburn]

they are so chronically diseased by a need to be with each other all the time that they’re becoming one another

[strawberrysunburn]

in continuing the vein of willmack matching outfits on the chopping block today is the 3.14.26 vs the habs fits (sorry about trash pic quality)

we've already discussed this mack jacket; it's the houndstooth bomber jacket from vince that he's been wearing since december (1.10.26, 1.3.26, 12.31.25, 12.27.25). it's an expensive piece retailing for $648, which i shudder at the thought of paying hundreds for a polyester blend but i digress

will's on the other hand....another zara stunner....interesting about this is that it has side seam pockets which i've noticed on a couple of will's other jackets as well. wonder if that's a preference for him! this is also the jacket he was wearing for post practice press 3.11.26

i will say that close up these jackets don't look as similar (color/pattern wise), but the cut and fit of both are very similar! the white polos are suspiciously similar....

juicy to me that we get all of these matching outfits when will comes back to boston to his adoring harem of brunet hockey men...if i link your game with mine, dress you in my image, remind myself that they may have known you first, but i've made version of you just for myself

we’re so fucking back it’s never joever til it’s over !!! everyone acting a fool on will smith hockeys internet as if they forgot that macklin celebrini is THE #1 willhead and loves him more than any of us . people talking about replacing will or will trades when all those guys were only ever placeholders for will in mack’s mind. the second his boy was back on the ice they’re shoulders glued together, won’t let will out of his sight, fondly watching him shoot pucks til will immediately returns to his side. we talk about the rick c. leash but have you considered the willmack leash in which they’ve clipped themselves together and one won’t go where the other can’t follow, they’ll drag each other into the spotlight, though life, even if it means they’re both choking in the end .
