It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia + Grindr Conversations

they have tension

Another s16 crack "theory" totally real totally legit not clickbait: Mac’s long distance bf is a catfish, but it turns out to be Cricket because Mac was also catfishing, pretending to be someone rich and famous, and when they were supposed to finally meet, Cricket was just gonna rob the guy blind, (but then when it turns out to be Mac, maybe at first they're like okay let's just pretend this never happened, but then they're like unless... and the first guy Mac ever ends up sleeping with (on screen) is Cricket).

wrestles for the troops that first cricket scene like he’s sooo sexy SORRY! the slicked back hair n missing tooth … i like it !!!! got me giggling or whatever . sorryyyyyy

ok, so I wasn’t really prepared to draw this but it happened anyway. Hope you enjoy the rarest of pairest, that being Rickety Cricket and Mac sharing what is hopefully not super hard drugs

For the ask meme, I'm gonna go a little off the beaten path: how about Cricket?

You know what, I tip my hat to you.

• favorite thing about them: you know, he takes everything shitty that happens to him in stride. And I admire that. He made made lemons out of lemonade if you will.

•least favorite thing about them: his whole episode. I feel like I can only take Cricket in small doses. And the fact that his episode is sandwiched between Tends Bar and DDL just is so rude.

• favorite line: "You guys mind if I go in the bathroom and smoke some PCP?"

•brOTP: Hm....Charlie and Cricket probably have some good times hanging out under the bridge.

•OTP: Oh god uh....okay in Cracks the Liberty Bell when he and Dee where gonna get married.

•nOTP: MacCricket lmao I'm sorry.

•random headcanon: on rainy nights, the Gang lets him sleep in the bar

•unpopular opinion: I don't know how popular this is, but sometimes I think he's more annoying than funny?

• song i associate with them: I Feel Pretty

• favorite picture of them:

Send me a character and I'll list

just saw someone tag maccricket and my soul left me fucking body

mac telling cricket he loves him was so sweet. gay sweet mac

ngl when that happened my life flashed before my eyes for a hot second because i was afraid maccricket was gonna happen

"charmac this, charden that." i'm waiting for charlie to get with the lawyer

rehashing this post from right before s15 like. hm !!!!! first half of the post died like hoodie gate and dennis in macs room turned to be Nothing. i’m still maintaining they fucked over quarantine (SINGING HAPPY SILLY LITTLE COUNTRY LOVE SONGS ?????? country mac vs mac) but. dennis is still emotionally in north dakota. he’s still fight or flight. he’s learnt he can’t survive without mac without the gang and still had to come crawling back to philly But he’s not emotionally back. he’s not accepted he’s back and this is Who He Is. that he couldn’t survive as someone else once again. he’s terrified mac and the gang can see through him. he still wants to run. the gang go on holiday. go where PURPLE ??? that’s not a place !!! vocal stim of all time. they go to ireland back to their Roots. they’re an Irish bar. macs so aggressively american irish. let’s tell him he’s dutch. to shut him up. need to confuse him, spin him around, give him a different focus other than Me.

mac and dennis barely interact in ireland. dennis’ obsession with authenticity almost killing him. he’s trying so hard to be Real to be a Real Person. not Himself of course. someone real here. s14 health scare dennis NOT vigilant about covid ???? REFUSING to admit he had it. because it wasn’t authentic. wasn’t Real. because he spent 2020 hiding away with mac, slowly falling back into old routines, back in love back to being see through. fuck. that’s Not what ireland was for. dennis being the one to point out charlie’s dad died from covid. weird washy vision. dennis the “Only One” who didn’t get vaccinated. s14 health freak out dennis more about mac than anything else. he wanted Everything to be The Same back to when they could read eachother BUT he’s terrified of being Seen by mac. by mac who can Now see himself as gay, what the fuck is he finally going to be able to see in dennis. macs been spun around by dennis so he just goes to i’ll look after dennis Directly when he asks. i don’t want him running away from me again. also pizza poisoning. building back up that codependency. dennis needing anything else than Mac to blame all his mac problems on. Macs priest journey he’s thinking about Himself he’s Looking After Himself. not dennis. big mo should we quit the game. if you’re not having fun anymore. he’s not. everything with dennis is more Pain than anything else. being suffocated by his own love. sorry about the delusional maccricket hopes. mac and cricket ex boyfriends i’ll never stop believing in you though. macden using cricket as a middle man instead of just fucking eachother. den and charlie trying to spin him around confuse him saying he’s not irish. okay. next aspect of my identity is catholic. i’ll just go Full into that. the wars over. the storm has stopped raging. maybe. it’s complex. but it’s easier than dennis. feeling unfulfilled by the church though. this isn’t what i wanted this isn’t filling my dennis shaped hole. coming back together on the mountain. to help charlie. finding the truth. they lied to me told me i wasn’t irish just because they thought i was annoying? heartbreaking. DEVASTATING honestly. fuck you im leaving. i don’t have to help you. you’ll never help me. all i’ve been DOING is trying to Look After Myself so you wouldn’t have to. macs whole LIFE trying so desperately for someone to Love him. fuck man.

but back in the pub. mirror of paddys. we’re never escaping paddys. but why would i want to. we’re always running out into the world looking for treasures when everything we need is right here in the bar. their own ecosystem. and we carry out country (us. giggling like yeah the United States US and just. Us as a relationship) with us wherever we go! BECAUSE WE LOVE HER! and when you love someone , you can’t BEAR TO LEAVE EM BEHIND” watch dennis. face journey. he realises before mac. he loves philly he loves paddys he loves the gang he loves mac. HE CANT KEEP RUNNING AWAY. it’s okay to stop and be stationary. it’s okay to be who you are. “not ever” he’s ran away so many times. even this holiday with the gang he’s running from them. mac looks at him. mac knows. it’s okay that mac can read me that he can see through me like this. it’s good. i missed it. i’m weak and tired of running and I’m Sorry. everything i’ve done to you because i hated myself because i was scared of myself. they go to charlie. it’s the big game. they’ve embraced who they are (american) (Who They Are) and that’s when you WIN. dennis was in north dakota during the big game. wasn’t part of it. was still running. i’ve said it a thousand times sure he’s physically back in philly for years but emotionally he was still running. he’s stopped. laid down to rest.

i don’t want to hypothesise about s16 too much but after the first two eps are out i feel confident saying. the cat is poking his head out of the wall. he’s missing mac. i’ve said before end of clip show SINISTER “we’re back to normal” it’s dennis’ fantasy he wants so badly to become reality. he’s the best at monitoring reality and pulling one over on the gang. because that’s all he Ever does. that’s all he’s been doing. they’ve only just caught on or directly challenged him or tried to live in their own fantasies. i don’t know if dee’s cat is fully coming out of the wall but he’s poking his head. barely saw macden apartment last season because they were running away from her. sterile. in the season Opener we saw Her Insides. the fridge. casual domesticity. throwing out all of their furniture and sleeping on a blow up bed together. he’s stopped running. when you embrace who you are then you WIN. but. macs moving on. it’s been too long. took dennis too long to adjust. that happens. i’m so scared to tinhat about johnny but. i’m still your leading man. macs got another leading man. he’s being replaced maybe. it’s me it was always me. i think we’re gonna see more of that. i have always trusted the structure. i don’t think it’s going to be fruitless. yeah i think i’m out now. he’s BACK from north dakota he’s working on himself. macden doorway in inflates mirroring macdenbreakup. we don’t need to tell you our business. he’s protecting himself protecting their relationship. he’s not getting angry anymore. working to be a person. not letting small things blow up anymore. but it’s not going to be enough. he needs to Show Mac he cares More. it’s going to be difficult but. i trust the structure

ok are any of you gonna write the maccricket piss kink fic or should i

mac wanting to be a priest … i am thinking ab maccricket again . this is a joke i’ve given far too much thought to

is it bad that i. kinda want mac/cricket stuff to happen. like not now but at some point. idk the ship has just appealed to me for a while as an obscure unlikely to happen rarepair for a while and i feel like i'm the only one who feels this way?

i mean.... i can see where you’re coming from? like on a character level they could potentially have some really interesting conversations considering their common backgrounds as men of faith, which is something that mac’s never been able to talk about with anyone else in the gang (the twins are pretty blatantly atheist, charlie strikes me as being either agnostic or hating the church, and frank just doesn’t give a shit)

i don’t..... ship it myself.......... but i guess i can see why you’d want to see that. my main thing is that just... Not Like This in regards to mac, you know? despite everything happening with cricket’s life and character he’s pretty much always seen as a joke so it would be VERY hard to turn that around and make him into a legitimate character that we feel anything more than scorn or pity for. and i will be cold in my grave before i let mac’s first Real(TM) gay act be played off as a joke which is definitely what would happen if maccricket took place
