i keep seeing posts on here about how uma and harry arenāt relevant because harry flirts with everyone and while iāve seen a couple posts defending them as a shipā¦. i just wanna tell you why youāre wrong⦠with gif evidence. sit back, yāall.
as i said before, the first āevidenceā is that harry flirts with everyone but the problem is that yāall are confusing his tantalizing tactics with āflirtingā because of thomasā natural sex appeal. donāt believe me? hereās some examples of harry looking at various characters that arenāt uma.
letās start with mal because people mainly use this one from what iāve seen. and while the chemistry is there between them, i think thatās fair to say that its because DOVE AND THOMAS ARE A COUPLE and very obviously had something there during filming.
here we have harry right before telling mal that he could hurt her⦠a tantalizing tactic because he wants to KILL her:
and here we have his reaction after it didnāt quite go as planned where he genuinely looks annoyed as hell:
and since i know someone will bring up him blowing a kiss to mal⦠thatās after successfully pissing her and the rest of the vks off⦠like come ON. he had a successful reaction to his tantalizing yet AGAIN.
and after mal, youāve got jay and ben.. which, okay. in theory they could be nice ships, but i also need you to think about the fact that heās literally tantalizing them in every scene he shares with them. when harry is seen with ben he either is torturing him on the plank, fighting him on the ship, or āgoochie goochie gooāing him before uma steps in to intervene.. plus the whole āhowās it feel to be a king nowā bit where heās trying to get a reaction from him. and as for jay⦠again, you only see them fighting on the ship and then the scene in the alley where heās LITERALLY trying to piss jay off. thatās what he wants. hereās some gif evidence of both:
and after having a satisfying reaction:
and after successfully pissing jay off:
now⦠*inhales deeply* his reactions with uma. letās get to the good shit.
when we first see uma and harry, theyāre in the chip shop and the first thing that happens is her bringing the plate of food and slamming it down⦠and thatās where he goes to eat and she pushes his arm up and allows her to do as she pleases without becoming angry. whereas when mal touched him in the hair salon, he had a fit of rage and knocked everything off the counter. carrying on from that same scene, he watches as uma becomes angry and yells at the tv and decides to join in right after her even though no one else does until theyāre instructed to.
and then again we have the moment a few moments later when uma is talking about how mal betrayed them and⦠iām sorryā¦. his lip biting, yāall.
then we have some scenes that werenāt in the movie, but were in the music video in which harryā¦. who is insanely protective of his hook, allows uma to use it. check this out.
now thereās about a million other scenes, so iām not gonna describe every single one of them, but iām gonna say this and then leave you with the rest of the evidence iāve got at hand.
uma tells him to do something and he does it without hesitation. he doesnāt second guess her, he doesnāt ask why.. he just acts. apart from the times he made the comment about ānever being allowed to have any funā and then the āyou said i could hook himā but i donāt see that as an argument. she puts him in his place and he ALLOWS her to. uma was also the only character in the movie who could calm harry down or stop him from his crazy ass outbursts. the scene in the chip shop where gil called uma shrimpy and uma put her hand on harryās arm as if to tell him that itās fine? iconic. AS SEEN HERE:
āharry. we get it. chill.ā iconic. āgive it a rest, harry! give it rest!ā ICONIC.
(peep that grin after she shoves him)
this post has become incredibly long and if youāve made it this far⦠congratulations, but HARRY AND UMA ARE IMPORTANT AND RELEVANT AND I WONāT HEAR ANYMORE ABOUT IT.
oh, and also. donāt even get me started on how he takes his hat off, kneels to be eye to eye, and then says her name with the utmost respect and adoration.Ā if you didnāt ship them after this then⦠who even are you?
