You bring me home

Harry exhibited behavior during this London show. If you have found your way to this post you probably know about him screaming ANNIVERSARY that day and just not dropping the topic but you probably didn’t notice these other things, so let me take you through them.

“Harry via snapchat on that day

Skip if you know it, Exhibit A - Anniversary

He reads a sign about a couple on their anniversary, has a little chat and then tells them Happy Anniversary, twice. He then walks away and goes “That’s what I’m talking about, we love love here. We just love it. Give her a kiss!” and reads the sign again. Liam: “Oh, there we go.”. Then, Harry goes “You’re absolutely welcome! Thank you for being with us during your A N N I V E R S A R Y!” and it’s so god damn loud, it’s aggressive. He then sneaks a glance at Louis 

and asks “Did anyone else come on their anniversary? It’s not your anniversary is it? It’s not. Is there anyone else, who came on their anniversary?”

Here’s the full video:

Which is interesting to say the least as the larries were celebrating their supposed 2 year anniversary that day, prompted by a series of suspicious tweets on Sep 28/29 in 2013.

Even if they didn’t actually get married on Sep 28, 2013 (soft debunk here, I can’t find a better post unfortunately), you gotta say it’s a really peculiar thing to do on the day your fandom thinks you might have it. But also […] I can totally imagine him being a pissy little toddler and seriously being offended that Louis didn’t take their fake fan-created marriage anniversary seriously.

[i made a post about that moment here as well]

Exhibit B - serenading denied

During 18, I got no other explanation and am left to conclude that Louis just knows that Harry is going to serenade like never before today and for some reason he just won’t let it happen. Liam helps and proceeds to give us comedic gold.  I found 3 videos of this, so the gifs below come in 2 or 3 of the same moment. [video 1 unavailable, video 2, video 3]

[Harry] I got a heart, and I got a soul. Believe me, I will use them both

Louis darts outta there, Harry looks back.

[Harry] We made a start Be it a false one, I know

Harry glances over to where Louis is supposed to be, Louis is still in the back.

[Harry] Baby, I don’t want to feel alone

Baby left you alone.

[Niall] So kiss me where I lay down

As Harry stops singing, Louis struts back in. Maybe he thinks it’s safe now.

[Harry] Long before we both thought the same thing

It’s. Not. Safe. It’s not safe at all. Liam seems to realise where Louis’ last glance went.

And yes, these glances happen at the same time.

[Harry] All I can do is say that these arms Are made for holding you, oh-oh

He’s really not backing down. Louis is like bitch here he goes again, I saw that in my peripheral vision.

[Harry] I wanna love like you made me feel

Louis knows he’s about to sing “When we were 18” and that’s when he usually glances over, but now he’s already looked 28 times. Harry’s gonna shoot a thousand arrows with just one look. Liam knows what’s up. Everyone else in the room could see it. So what does Louis do? 

HE YELLS HELP. 

He yells help.

I’m okay. I’ve been totally ok since I saw that, yep. I’m fine. This is a thing that happened. He seriously yells. Help. to. Liam. AND LIAM, OH LIAM HELPS ALRIGHT.

ARE YOU READY FOR THIS. You’re not ready for this.

[Harry] When we were 18

DENIED HARRY. DENIED. NOT HAPPENING TODAY.

It’s unbelievable. Right before our eyes. Never saw or heard anyone mention this before. Explain what happened if this wasn’t “Liam help me, my husband won’t back the fuck down!”, and Liam just getting it, and doing that. Go ahead and give me an alternate explanation. I have none.

Also, Harry is NOT amused. He was brewing up a love declaration and he got denied. In case it’s not clear from his face, it sure is clear from Liam’s.

Bunch of weirdos, I’m telling ya.

Exhibit C - “We”

Points at self during the “we” of when we were 18. Harry that’s not an “I” to point at yourself for. Also that lil Louis nod in the back, since we still have a video from the other perspective. Yeah, look at your man go. Yes the “we” in 18 is the unhinged pointy boy and the nodder. We know.

Exhibit D - “Put a ring on it”

D… do I need to say more? On the anniversary of your supposed marriage you do this little dance? Alright.

(for app users, starts at 0:56)

So, in short, I don’t think he was okay that day. Poor baby probably just needed some anniversary love.

I am literally just going to throw myself out of the window.

The Notebook? Harry's favorite romantic comedy that he brings up all the time? Opus 28. As in the number they're both obsessed with? The piano scene? Where she regains her memories just for a moment and remembers how much she loves him?

Noooooo... it got MORE PAINFUL.

Louis had played Radiohead as his outro music a few times. Harry just went to that event to honor the lead singer of Radiohead and told the story about losing his virginity (and also said Radiohead is his favorite band). And, of course, Romeo and Juliet is a story of forbidden love.

My tags:

RADIOHEAD

also him slipping in Bigger Than Me and Out Of My System into his speech before Carla's Song AGAIN and then giggling (yeah, honey, you know that we know🤭)

i can’t believe he CHANGED his outro song “randomly” (not randomly) after 8 nights of having the same damn outro song AND not just using a song from his favourite romantic film (which: 🥹), but I can't get over Opus 28 being the outro song (his literal 'Exit Music' btw) at his first show during Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ AND also on the same night that Louis has the 28th show of his own tour AND while Harry's basically wearing a non-binary pride flag and bounding across the stage with a pride flag for the 3rd night in a row. he is TOO MUCH (he's not). oh my god. i love him and them and their love so much.

Harry is SO LOUD. he is SCREAMING actually.

So, of course, I cried about how much they love each other.

BUT THEN I LOOKED AT THE LYRICS OF MELANCHOLY HILL

That little smirk. He knows exactly what he's doing. The "excuuuse me?" of the person recording is SO accurate
