Davey and Jack deserve so much happiness.
Kenny Ortega is an openly gay director that worked for Disney. When asked about if there was a queer aesthetic that ran through his movies, he responded,
"Yeah, for sure. I do, because that’s who I am. I put a lot of who I am into my work. I mean, really all the way back from the earliest work that I’ve done, even as a choreographer in film and television. And I think, yeah, that it’s just there, and whether it’s screaming at you, or whether it’s just sort of quietly there, it’s there."
So when someone ships the same gendered people in his movies, it really isn't that crazy as you might think. AND JUST LOOK AT THESE PHOTOS AND TELL ME THEY DONT HAVE SOME QUEER UNDERTONES-
And lets all not forget that Kenny did confirm Ryan from HSM officially gay but ifthatsjustme-
