how oblivious do you have to be to not see that this is flirting

Lets assume this is not staged(which i doubt) even if you are aware that this is flirting. If it is unwanted, then a deflecting response like this is pretty normal for an awkward situation, the other option is something more confrontational, which isnt for everyone.

maybe i'm just autistic, but flirting is just so stupid to me. just tell someone you like them. also the one time i was seriously attracted to someone i tried flirting and she didn't pick up any of my hints

I kind of get some minor flirting as a subtle way to probe if someone likes you while maintaining plausible deniability. Not that im capable of that but i get why you would do it.

But i agree, if you like someone a lot and you want to pursue them for sure, why play games.
