[ The surprise is exaggerated for effect. McGillis knows he's an attractive man and also that Eli is incredibly weak to muscles. That the general attraction web here might form a full square has crossed his mind before.
Funnily enough, way back in the first week, Eli was the first person he'd considered attractive. Things have changed since then but... ]
Come to think of it, he does. I'll not it down for his strengths.
[ No actually the first mouth opening was still attractive, but it did go downhill from there. And then moving uphill again through the slow process of actual fondness. There's a whole graph in here somewhere. ]
Now you just sound like you're trying advertising him to me.
[ Ha ha, he knew it. McGillis sees Izou that way. See? Eli's smart, after all. Knowing to tell Izou he had to talk to the big guy first. Someone give this man a gold star. ]
Huh. I'd say... nah? I mean, I'm giving you all the reasons you should totally get with Celeste. That's wingmanning. Not to say the terms are bad or anything.
[ As for the lack of jealousy, well... ]
And it is a little weird. I would have thought we'd all be super jealous about this, but the more I've thought about it, the more it's like... I love Celeste. That doesn't mean I own him? Plus, he's a vampire. Sex is probably an easy way to get blood? Like, the vampire gets something out of it, the human gets something out of it, that kind of thing.
I can't go "oh, since we're together now, you gotta go hungry". That'd be insane.
[ It's only because Eli told Izou to talk to McGillis that McGillis is now comfortably dropping the term 'boyfriend' whenever and wherever - which means Eli is indeed the greatest wingman of all time. ]
Well, Celeste has said that he won't take any partners except for us here - so we'll have to try hard to keep him well-fed, is what you're saying?
[ There are other ways to get blood (such as stealing from bloodbanks, which he's sure Celeste has also considered and/or done) but... They're talking about this in context of half-flirting and wingmanning so there's no need to get into the actual logistics too hard, is there now? ]
Wait... [ That was what Celeste said, wasn't it?! ] Oh, man, you're right. We'd better, then. I don't know if I can cover every single day without getting sick.
[He's not going to starve...! He wasn't starving before you dweebs started letting him bite often.]
While I do appreciate the care, Mina did provide rations in the dorm fridge. [Yoon even put cute stickers all over them to make the presence of blood bags less spooky--] If it is between something cold- [eugh...] -and you getting sick, I might as well use what has been provided here, since I can't at home, no?
[And he'll go ahead and answer McGillis's unspoken speculation there, too. Whether or not he's considered stealing from bloodbanks at home, he can't actually eat from blood bags usually! Inconvenient!
This wasn't meant to bring up actual logistics, but he can't just let Eli sit and worry like that.]
[BOYF???? FRIEND??? BOYFRIEND??? HE JUST SAID IT SO CASUALLY LIKE IT'S NO BIG DEAL??????
He's his.... He's been claimed with such a powerful term. If he had a tail it'd be wagging but with his still subpar emotional processing the only thing Izou can think to do besides going red in the face is to just bite McGillis's neck.]
[ For a moment McGillis just has to continue staring in disbelief. What even...
Izou truly is an incomprehensible entity sometimes. But the emotional core of what he's saying... Well, that's exactly the man McGillis has gotten to know so well. ]
... maybe wait until we're alone together next time.
[ AND GIVE HIM SOME KIND OF WARNING FIRST. Ow, his neck... ]
[Hey, wait, hold on, what's this?? He'd just been about to tease him for that comment on his taste in men, when he starts in on all this.
And, okay, his self-esteem is pretty good, so it's not like he'll deny any of it, but having it all laid out like that, by Eli, to go on this hypothetical strengths chart? Please.
It's a good thing they're already tucked close because he kind of just faceplants into his hair to halfway hide the blush that creeps up way too quickly for his liking.]
[ Looks like it's a rare moment where Eli is the one doing the flustering. There, there, Celeste. He gives him a pat on the leg and absolutely leaves the aforementioned hand there once he's done. ]
[Okay, well, in that case! He can get it together enough to tease. A bit. Via a very put-upon pout and a returned hand squeeze to show he isn't nearly as serious as he might seem.]
Oh? That's all of them? That's not very many things, you know.
[ Oh no, he has to think up more words to describe Celeste...? Crap, it's his turn to look a little sheepish, glancing away slightly. ]
No? There's other stuff, sure. I like listening to you when you talk about anything since you have a nice voice, and I like how you smell, even if my sense of smell isn't as good as it should be right now.
[ Look, if Celeste wants more compliments, he's getting them. Prepare to die of embarrassment, vampire. ]
Then there's how talented you are. You kept going on during all the breaks between other acts, and there was always something different. You know, at the market. It was so the audience wouldn't wander away, and everyone else performing would get a chance to show off, too, right?

I could go on about aaall his strengths if you'd like. You know, flexible. Very flexible. Gorgeous. Real smart. Funny as hell.
[ Sorry, McGillis, he's so in love it's gross. ]

[ Which is kind of amusing. ]

[ insert "this is my boyfriend and this is my boyfriend's boyfriend" gif from parks & rec here ]
Although... I guess I, uh. Shouldn't be wingmanning my own boyfriend...? But he is all of those things.
no subject
[ Except for himself, he's probably the most jealous guy here. But not jealous enough to stop this, not with this group of people. ]
I wonder if giving you leave to sleep with my own boyfriend would count as wingmanning? Or does having terms preclude it from that?
[ It's the first time he's called Izou his boyfriend out loud, yay! ]

Aw, c'mon. You know it's all true, Celeste.

[...Okay, having a hand end up on his leg makes it worth it, and he's rather quick to put his own hand over Eli's, lacing their fingers together.]
That all is besides the point, right now.

There's reasons everyone here thinks you're hot as well and those are all of 'em.
