So, Peter has a lot of feelings! Very strong feelings for Lincoln. He will refuse to call it love because haha no, but he does acknowledge and accept there are very strong feelings and that they're not going anywhere.
He takes a lot of comfort on Lincoln's presence. Peter was on his own for a long time, and then Walter and Olivia happened and he grew used to them, and then he was on his own again. And he is really bad at being on his own, especially now that he knows what it's like not to be. So Lincoln provides a lot of grounding and stability he wouldn't have otherwise, and he knows this and is very grateful for it.
GOD WHAT ELSE? RE: PHYSICAL ATTRACTION. Peter is attracted to Lincoln, but the physical attraction came after he became attracted to his personality, and possibly after getting some feelings. He's not really into guys as a rule, not even guys who look exactly like Lincoln.
RE: SPOILERS. Even as Peter was flipping out in that one thread where flipping outs happened, the fact that Lincoln immediately understood and went for a hug, gave him a million points and it's a big part of why Peter didn't try to cut all ties and go live in a cave or something.
Lincoln honestly likes Peter. They worked well together and they butt heads in a way where it's like . . . honestly, back home, he is furious with Peter. But camp experiences have helped give him insight into things. He's in the loop, which was his biggest issue back home — with feeling side-lined, with not being told things, with being underestimated, etc.
And he's grown to genuinely care for Peter, which is a thing. Lincoln's sort of closed off and encased in himself unless he gets a lot of poking and prodding. Peter gave him a few ins, he decided to just go for it because . . . why not? There was attraction and at that point, things with Olivia weren't really going anywhere. And over the course of several months, he's grown to care for and really like being with him and. I guess the biggest thing is that if Lincoln feels needed, he's good. He's there. And he will love you.
idk I am tired and Lincoln is just weird and picky with feelings. The point is that he is very firmly attached to Peter. He is Peter's friend. He is trying to be a good boyfriend, although that's always been a difficult, awkward process for him. He is angry at him for some things, but he has perspective in camp that helps him be less angry at Peter specifically and more enraged at other things. And Peter is, in general, more supportive of him here and. Yes. HE FEELS LOVED, it's very strange and new and he's hesitantly happy?? Because he's insecure, he's afraid it won't last, and he's good at shutting himself off. So there are difficulties that mostly stem from him being so insecure about himself, his place, etc etc, but he's working on it.
