all THSC gays are oblivious but different brands(tm) of oblivious
Dave - oblivious via self deprecation
Rupert - oblivious via misinterpretation
Burt - oblivious via underanalyzation
Sven - oblivous via oversimplification
Charles - just a good old fashioned case of himbo brain

Dave struggles with self confidence and his brain can and will turn anything short of an unambiguous declaration of love into a "you're just needy and projecting/reading too deeply into it because you WANT there to be something there when there isn't"

Rupert likes to think he can read a situation and a person pretty well but once he decides on the "right" narrative he subconsciously sticks to it, stubborn bastard that he is, and interprets every interaction henceforth through whatever lens he's come up with as the "truth"
Burt exists in a constant state of neutrality and doesn't put any effort into unpacking his OWN feelings, let alone paying attention to the ones of those around him, so any obvious advances basically become muted background white noise to him by accident OOPS
Like Dave, Sven has anxiety but because they're different people and _not every mental illness manifests its symptoms the exact same way jesus fucking christ (/nbh)_ he opts to rationalize away anything that could MAYBE be interpreted as flirting because NO that CAN'T be it
Charles "the SAM turret can't be shooting all of its missiles because that would mean Henry did something I wasn't expecting him to do even though I can see with my own two eyeballs that's what's happening right in front of me" Calvin
