So this was the fairly early days of my life modelling career. Before I learnt that locking your knees in a standing pose, especially for someone like me with horrific blood circulation meant all your blood would pool downwards and you'd end up dropping like a soggy towel in a porn movie. Rookie mistake.

So anywho I was modeling for a first year uni art class. Stood like a classical greek statue on stool, stark bollocks naked. I get a woozy feeling in my head one minute and the next I'd slammed onto the concrete floor completely unconscious. You know the type uni art classes always have, hard, cold, covered in 50s years worth of art materials.

I woke up to a very panicky art tutor stood over me waving a banana in my face insisting over and over I eat. (That image is never going to leave me.) He thought I'd skipped breakfast like a proper bohemian and decided my blood sugar needed seeing to immediately. So there I was, laid on the floor, naked, with a banana. There's a fanfic plot in there somewhere.

After taking a minute to regain myself… And consume said banana. I was back at it. The art tutor used the fact the contours of my body were now lined with paint/chalk etc from the floor as a helpful teaching aid. Like, ‘you can really see the muscle structure in the leg here, highlighted very helpfully by charcoal dust.’

It was quite the experience. Not even the weirdest one in that job either.

I think fans are so insistent on discounting Alby's influence on Niall and Niall having a positive relationship with him because they're so uncomfortable with watching Niall break a cycle that leaves Ruben behind.

That the consequence of his relationship with Ruben has always been a fear based repression of who he is, converted to internalized homophobia so that he can be a man like Ruben.

But if he can accept himself, he doesn't actually need Ruben. He's no longer trying to emulate the individual Ruben is, and the bad habits he developed as a result of Ruben start slipping.

Narratively speaking, Niall's relationship with Alby changes who he is as a person. Alby is the opposite of Ruben, and his role in Niall's story inspires acceptance and reconciliation. Something he can never do when he's chained to Ruben.

Alby was the first time Niall attempted to fight back against Ruben (both physically and in court). Alby inspires Niall to break free from Niall and is proof Niall can live without Ruben.

And I don't think fans are comfortable with the sheer amount of life Niall can live without Ruben.
