The WAVE of people who realized they're aspec specifically from watching jaiden's video is honestly incredible, and really speaks to (1) how well presented the video was, and (2) how important representation is and how much we NEED our experiences to be spotlighted!! I'm so happy for everyone who found themselves through that video, and for everyone who feels a little more seen!

note: so im a Harry Styles slut and this pairing has me weak. making this gif was hilarious because Luke is a pale baby and Harry looks like an Abercrombie and Fitch model

——————–

soft music mixed with the sound of Harry’s voice as he talked to the delivery man, tipping handsomely and wishing the guy a nice day before coming into the house with the food. 

You stood in his kitchen, setting up plates for the two of you on his island counter. note books scattered the surface, small poems and ideas you’d been working on for a few hours.

when you’d first met Harry in the studio you had hit it off immediately. the two of you vibed on another level that he really wasn’t used to. when he started working on a second album, you’d been the first writer he called.

The Deal

I’m working on so many things. SO MANY. But the FWB concept has been with me for awhile, so I spun out this short thing. I might revisit it in a different way in the future, but for now, have a short shot of it. x. 

Gentle reminder: requests are closed. I’m working on them and much more! ;) 

The deal is that he gets his action from you when he’s in town, or anywhere near.

It works out perfectly, actually. It saves him the trouble of using his hand or alternately having to up his vigilance to ten when he tries to scour through and find someone to help him stroke his need, and you… well, you get a really good, no strings attached fuck from a guy who knows exactly which buttons to push because he’s pushed them so many times before.

Did I Break It?

A domestic dad!Harry and husband!Harry, where you share a glass of wine in the kitchen and enjoy scraps of the kids’ leftovers while trying to figure out Year 3 maths homework. Oh and followed by quite a realistic smut because some nights aren’t just meant to be, right?

Honestly, you thought you’d be done with maths when you finished school. Well jokes on your younger self because here you are, a little over a decade later, nursing a much-needed glass of Riesling as you work through equivalent fractions to check on your son’s homework while Harry deals with bedtime stories upstairs. Or so you thought, because now you hear the sound of the stairs creaking (that would probably finally get fixed by the time your last baby turn eighteen), followed by familiar footsteps coming into the kitchen. There’s absolutely no need for you to lift up your head and glance towards the arched doorway, because you’d recognise that sound anywhere. But you do it anyway.

And there he is, your husband, making his way into the kitchen looking all happy and soft. Although you won’t deny the fact that he does look like he needs a wash and a good night’s sleep, because that’s what being in charge of bedtime routine for four young children aged eight and under does to you. But even then, the combination of exhaustion and pure joy on his face that makes him look very much like a dad, is a sight you enjoy getting a front-row seat every night and one that you wouldn’t trade for the world.

The story of Eroda

I’ve decided to compile and document how this whole thing developed for posterity because I think it’s incredible and so fun and so inventive and I absolutely LOVE Harry Styles for doing this.

On the 21st of November, a Twitter user called Austin posted the first tweet of his viral thread about Eroda. Due to the picture limit, I won’t be posting all the thread but here’s the beginning:

When Austin got to the account, VisitEroda he found that it only had eight followers, it wasn’t following anyone and it had only tweeted eight times (it had started the day before, 20 November). The account also had little to no information about this Eroda place.

He went on the website listed in the account’s bio, www.visiteroda.com, to get more information and found next to nothing. It didn’t even say where the place was located. When he did reverse image search of the photos in the website, he found that they were stock photos of various places around the world.

His first thought was that it might be a scam to sell plane tickets and booking accommodations, but he couldn’t find any links to buy anything. All the links within the page redirected back to its home. The website also had no actual ads, so it was making no revenue from its clicks.

He quickly dismissed the idea of someone making it to practise or for fun, because the page was being actively promoted not only on Twitter but also on Facebook, Instagram, Spotify and with static ads on random websites and news articles. The ads were not only in English but also in Spanish, Portuguese, German and Italian. Running ads like that is expensive, so it had to be someone with money and it had to have a purpose. Other people started noticing the ads as well, so quickly they started suspecting they’d stumbled upon an ARG (alternate reality game).

Tech savvy people got involved and combed through the website’s coding and registration. They didn’t find anything interesting other than the fact that the domain was registered in October 2019 but it claimed copyright from 2004.

The ads kept on running, the thread got more and more attention, and more and more people started getting involved. Eventually, a Reddit subreddit was created to discuss it and 1,500 people registered in less than 24 hours. They also created a Discord server.

Every word in the website was analysed, theories were created. There were links to World Of Warcraft, and speculation on upcoming movies and video games. The biggest theory was that it was an ARG. People quickly realised that there was a Facebook page, an Instagram account (active since 13th November) and a YouTube channel also linked to Eroda. The YouTube channel posted a video on the 23rd of November:

This YouTube ad started to run as well before videos.

Then, Austin got contacted by someone over Twitter DMs that suggested there were a lot of connections to... Harry Styles.

The connections were convincing enough to raise eyebrows but vague enough for gamers to dismiss them. One of the attractions, The Fisherman’s Pub, was in the corner of Cherry Street and Golden Way. Cherry and Golden were the names of two songs in Harry’s upcoming album (Fine Line, preorder on iTunes). A lot of the locations in Eroda looked suspiciously like St Abbs, the town in Scotland where Harry had recorded a still unreleased music video back in August. There was a note in the website about how the “island’s youth” expressed themselves with bold hairstyles and some of the extras in the pictures of the video shoot had wild and strange hairdos. Some of the stock photos were from Norway and Denmark and Harry bad cryptically answered “I’m going to Oslo, or Copenhaghen? I don’t know,” in a few interviews. The most compelling connection? “Eroda” would be “Adore” backwards. One of Harry’s upcoming tracks was called “Adore You”.

Gamers insisted it was nothing and that there were more connections to other theories. They said someone along the lines of “Harry Styles would never do something quite this inventive and interesting,” and “it would be a waste because of his demographic.”

Then, a social media marketing coordinator called Ryan got a Facebook ad for Eroda and decided to check the “Why am I seeing this ad” section. The result? “Because you visited HStyles.co.uk, Harry’s official website (the photo is blurry because it’s a zoomed in screenshot from a video, sorry).

As someone who understands of social media marketing, Ryan explained that the only way that could happen was if someone with access to the coding in Harry’s website had added a Facebook pixel redirecting its visitors to Eroda ads. This meant that either Harry was involved, someone from his team was targeting his fandom for a related project, or his website had been hacked.

With this information, tech savvy people compared the coding and registration of visiteroda.com and HStyles.co.uk and found that both websites had been registered under the company MarkMonitor, which is often used by big brands for identity protection. Also, the Google Ads IDs of both of these websites were identical, and Google Ads IDs are unique per client and given by Google. There was one big circumstancial piece of evidence (MarkMonitor) and two concrete ones (Facebook pixel and Google IDs). Did gamers give up? Hahaha, no! It was a coincidence, a red herring, they were using the Harry fandom for attention but it wasn’t actually about him. It was some other Columbia artist (one that didn’t have a young girl dominated audience maybe?), or Columbia Pictures, or ANYTHING else. Basically, “Here’s how it can still not be about an ex boybander.”

A big ARG YouTuber picked up on Eroda before the Harry connections (he very quickly admitted defeat). It got published in several big gaming/tech blogs. The attention just kept growing and growing. By the 25th of November, there were five thousand people between Reddit and Discord paying super close attention to every detail. The Twitter thread had gathered over 45,000 likes, most of them by non fans.

Over the course of the week, changes happened to the page. Attractions got added with links that led nowhere. The word “peculiar” was added to most of the descriptions, then the entire website went down for a few hours and the message “Something peculiar had happened!” appeared. Then the website came back with no changes. A scrolling banner appeared at the top with an alert about migrating fish (jewel-coat, from North Africa). The Twitter account kept tweeting random stuff. The Instagram account kept posting as well. Nothing made sense and everything seemed pointless.

When someone made Eroda merch and started promoting it, Eroda’s Twitter account was quick to quote them on a tweet saying only to buy merch in their official store. They did not have one (but prevented people from being scammed).

The 26th, Eroda’s Twitter account posted this:

And some Harries found the exact Barnes & Noble in NYC where the pic was taken.

The next day, there was a listening party in Paris and Harry attended it. Fans asked him about Eroda and he said he had no idea what they were talking about. Reports varied. “He smirked”, “he smiled” and “he looked confused, so maybe he wasn’t lying.” (The bitch was lying.)

Then, a Twitter account by the name of “Lastsume001” send a private message to a fan. In the message they attached pictures of the brochure Eroda had tweeted about, apparently found in the wild.

The story behind it was weird. Apparently she found it, picked it up, took pictures, then threw it away. The account was new, created in November, and only had a handful of tweets all about Eroda or Harry’s album.

The 28th, more pictures from Harry filming his music video in St Abbs back in August mysteriously popped up.

The 29th, an account under the username “CherryStreet94” who also had only a handful of tweets about Eroda and Harry’s album and who had also created only in November, sent another DM to another fan. This time it was a video taken apparently in a cinema. The video was cut off at the beginning and end. Harry was in it – weird voiceover narrated. Beams came out of either his eyes or mouth and set an umbrella on fire. He screamed into a mason jar. He put on a weird helmet. Ominous music in the background. The setting looked suspiciously like St Abbs (or Eroda). In one of the clips, he’s sitting in a bench overlooking the horizon. The same bench could be found in a photo on Eroda’s website.

Then, fifteen minutes after the video surfaced, Eroda tweeted about their movie theatre.

The gamers had lost, Eroda was about Harry Styles.

The fan that got sent the video noticed something peculiar: the accounts that had sent the brochures and trailer were actually the same. They had only switched names and profile pictures. The location of its tweets was Kinlochverbie, a tiny town in Scotland that doesn’t actually have a cinema. Utter confusion and chaos.

Eroda’s Twitter started to interact GALORE. It quoted dozens of fans replying to the same questions over and over. “Yes, you can bring your pet snake/cat/dog/snail” (they got excited with pet sloths for some reason). The weather is cloudy. Perpetually. Or often. Which are now synonymous? Eroda is peculiar. Also cloudy. Also peculiar. “What kind of fish are there in Eroda?” someone asked. “Fish” Eroda Harrily replied. Don’t mention the pig in the pub. Only wear one gold earring. Did I mention peculiar and cloudy? This went on for an hour. Both Eroda and #VisitEroda trended worldwide (#VisitEroda at #1), also in the UK, US, Australia, etc. For some reason even “Edora” was trending (“Lights Out” energy). Eroda’s Twitter account reached and passed 50,000 followers. The YouTube video surpassed 1,000,000 views.

Some gamers were mad. Others were pumped. A lot of them checked out Harry’s music (and loved it).

Eventually the storm passed. Everyone was waiting for something to happen at 8.30 PM EST because of the cinema tweet from Eroda but nothing did. We all collectively went to bed. Today (30 November) we woke to mayhem.

A second Twitter account, also created in November, also no tweets, posted another video that looked taken in the same cinema as Harry’s the day before. It was also cut off and taken at the same weird angle. It was about Eroda. Someone mentions a pig in the pub and gets slapped. The voiceover for both videos was eerily similar.

Here are both videos (combined into one, because Tumblr won’t let me post them separately). The order is probably the Eroda one first and Harry’s second, but I respected the order they came out in.

The second account was “GuccciBabyHoney”. CherryStreet94 hilariously retweeted it. (CherryStreet94 also hilariously tweeted @ VisitEroda the night before: “Harry got to sleep.” I swear I don’t know if I love him or hate him.)

Here are the queens of plants:

Excellent usage of a profile picture by GuccciBabyHoney and bio by CherryStreet94. Props for the memes @ Jeff @ Harry.

Turns out, though there isn’t a cinema in Kinlochbrevie, there was a mobile cinema passing by and they did screen Harry’s trailer.

Minutes after the video, more chaos. Posters with art that looked like Harry (wearing the outfit from the pictures that surfaced this week of him filing in Abbs) surrounded by fish that looked exacto the same as the Eroda one surfaced in NYC. He’s posing like the Virgin Mary. At the bottom “ADORE YOU. COMING DEC 6.” The Columbia Records logo at the bottom. Hits Daily Double posted them and confirmed their veracity.

Eroda • Adore You

The VisitEroda Twitter got busy replying again today. “What language is spoken in Eroda?” someone asked. “Yes,” Eroda Harrily replied. The story is still unfolding. Next week is gonna be incredible!

Through it all, Harry has been absolutely silent on social media. Since the whole Eroda thing blew up he was only seen in Berlin and Paris for two listening parties. Fans remembered a clip from his interview with Zane Lowe last week where he says that going into his second album he knew there were bits of the process of putting it out he didn’t enjoy (presumably promo), so this time around he wanted to find ways to make the process fun.

Have to give it to him, he absolutely accomplished that.

Adore You coming Dec 6
