It is not so strange, often certain things are easier to say to a stranger than to your closest friend, especially something like homosexuality, you are afraid that that person you have known for a lifetime will look at you differently.If Damon is gay and crushing on the MC why does he keep pushing Mira towards the MC? I don’t understand the dynamic between Damon and Mira. She has been in town for 3 weeks, has been hanging with Damon solo for 2 weeks, how did they meet? Why did it take so long for Damon to introduce Mira to the MC? How is it that Mira knows Damon’s secret but the MC has no clue about it? After such a short amount of time Mira is a more trusted person than the MC, why?
Then it must be said that in fact we do not know how he aims to have discovered Damon's possible homosexuality, he could have caught him in the act with Dion for example.
