I'm so insanely obsessed with your Michael survives au, as I'm sure you've heard from many.

What if Michael's eyes got all swirly when he's experiencing intense emotion like happiness or anger?

I always imagined that they get swirly during more negative emotions. Like if he’s suppressing his anger or is overwhelmed. If he had swirly eyes when he was happy, it would be under the condition that he’s happily messing with someone 🥴
