Folklore As An Old Storybook

owned by taylor swift.

“It wasn’t that Henry was less of himself in English. He was less of himself out loud. His native language was thought.”

— Maggie Stiefvater, The Raven King

Midnight Milk, Marie Sjøvold

Signs as unhinged things Harry has done

Aries: Makin his brand for YEARS in 1D as “I used to be a baker!!! #bakerlife” then admitting he never baked & just worked a cashier at the bakery in a throwaway line 4 a BBC gryles skit. All men do is lie

Gemini: Getting grounded by his mom for saying “pussy” on national television

Cancer: The whole Doug the Dog SNL skit

Taurus: casually sprinkling in a line about sad masturbation on ftdt for no reason. that did not need to be there. jus went “I will pepper in the playing w myself in a random hotel uwu”

Leo: rollin up bussy-out to the 2015 AMA’s serving this lil lewk

w/o so much as a warning to the rest of 1d

Virgo: “The hardest part about Zayn leaving was the paperwork” u can’t make Zayn un-eat that candy thong

Libra: Making it illegal for minors to buy kiwi fruit in Manchester

Scorpio: getting matching “things I can/things I can’t” tattoos on his arms & slowly filling up the “can’t” section while leaving “things I can” completely blank. for years. like Jesus edge-lord go to therapy

Sagittarius: Leaving Taylor Swift stranded on a boat to go sit with sum men in a hot tub

becoming the muse for one of the most prolific breakup album of the decade afterward.

Capricorn: HS1 Track-list order of kiwi > ESNY > Woman. Helloooo emotional whiplash

Aquarius:

Pisces: Denying WS was abt eating pussy then making the WS music video almost singularly dedicated to eating pussy

Here is why being a Larry isn’t just “shipping your favs”

- Zayn has a written statement about how Harry and Louis felt like they couldn’t even be friends in public anymore because everyone said they were dating.

- Louis twin sisters have stated multiple times that larry was never and still isnt a thing. They’ve said it makes them uncomfortable and sad for their brother.

- Eleanor has received death threats from larries, claiming she’s “straight breeding” Louis.

- The whole babygate theory of Freddie not being Louis child is sick and twisted and if you believe that you must be 12 and lacking in maturity.

- Both Anne and Louis’ father blocked accounts that were harassing them for information for larry.

- Niall made a statement saying larry isn’t real.

- Louis HIMSELF made a statement that it isn’t real and he’s a straight man.

- The whole origin of being a larry is believing that two men can’t be friendly and affectionate to each other without being labeled as gay. It’s extremely toxic and started that way. Also many young fans shipped them just because two attractive men would “look good together” which is horrifying and invalidating to so many relationships in the LGBTQIA+ community.

- The lyric analysis of Louis saying “Princess Park” can mean anything. If you’re a larry, you are forcing something down someone’s throat that they’ve stated makes them uncomfortable and there’s no evidence to what you’re claiming. So much shit could’ve happened in Princess Park but larries believe harry is the only answer. Could it still be about harry, sure, is it in the context larries would want it in, no.

-People who don’t ship larry aren’t homophobic, they just see what it really is. You can’t blindly say something, read into every little thing, create outrageous theories, and ruin friendships and claim it’s just you “shipping your favs”. It’s toxic, it’s fetishizing same sex couples in multiple ways, and it’s crossing so many lines.

- If you are a larry and you’re reading this, do actual research. Not watch “Larry Proof videos part 3” or the “Wellington Video” and claim that’s your research. I’m talking about reading statements from THEM and THEIR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS!

- No their tour dates being kinda similar means nothing stop reaching.

- Whatever theory about “around 1:32” and louis being in a freeze frame at that point in a random 1D music video means nothing.

-All the boys were brothers and best friends. That’s why there’s Narry videos, Zarry videos, LiLo videos, etc. Larry videos aren’t special or ground breaking evidence when THEY ALL ACTED THAT WAY TO EACH OTHER!

Most of the younger audience are Larries that I’ve seen so please please please realize that your words matter. What you spread matters. Mindlessly shipping this is so gross on many levels that I urge you to please look in the mirror for a minute.

I noticed when I was a kid that adults seem to forget that everything is real, no matter how young you are. A seven year old doesn’t feel like a helpless infant, they feel the oldest and most mature they’ve ever felt. And they will when they turn eight, too. And nine. Twenty. Thirty. Fifty.

You never feel as young as you are, because you’re always the oldest you’ve been. You can only look back and equate childhood with ignorance and silliness, because there were things you didn’t know then. But there are things you don’t know now, too, that someone older is looking down at you for.

I promised myself I would never forget that, growing up. I put it in a time capsule when I was nine because I wanted to be certain. And sometimes it slips away, and I catch myself scoffing at people younger than me, but you have to fight that. You have to hold on. You have to keep a little bit of your younger mind inside you, so you don’t forget.

I think that’s important.

Remember that you’ll always change, but know that the person you’ll become isn’t going to be any more real than the person you are, or the person you were. They’re still going to feel like You.

“Now,” Harry said as they reached his house. “I don’t want you to be scared.”

“Why would I be scared?”

“’Cause mum can be… well, she can be a handful.”

kinda sad to get to the time of year when everyone on the internet starts memeing about how they gotta go play hours of #cool-special-indie music on mute for the next few months just so their spotify wrapped looks good at the end of the year. idk i just find it depressing to see how even your most private and personal joys, even the music you listen to, must be tweaked and polished and contrived so it can be presented to the world. how even your taste in music must be performed.

if u reblog this in 45 seconds u will meet ur favorite musician(s). no matter what. they will be raised from the dead 4 u.
