It's kind of hilarious reading the celeb heights website or any related discussion because no male actor is below 5' 8" until they're like 5' 4", and by my observation 5' 8" is a very flexible inch. Like, all my favourite actors seem to be that exact same height, but if you happened to line them up next to each other I'm pretty sure, based on some of them standing next to me at cons, that some are more 5' 8" than others.
Then there's the shenanigans to ensure that no actor is shorter than an actress on screen, and that the lead is taller than everyone no matter what, and really? Seriously? FFS just let people wander around being the barefoot height they are. I don't think very many of us care. Or possibly we care but in a positive way, because yaay, easier to reach. ... that's my logic anyway, the actors I've met where I'm armpit height are somehow just not as appealing.
Some actors are bonsai people. This is known. Their tendency therefore to walk around in a couple inches of heel and try and hide it is just... quirky.
... all I wanted to know was which of my OTP is taller, if either, and how that would work if one was in heels. Answer, equal height, heels would nudge one higher. So I should go back to making words now.
I have 2150 words. In a row. Telling a story.
The thing where it's probably a rubbish story is not relevant. I made words!
