prettystylinsons fav larry gifs day 3
Hi voxina. I hope you're enjoying all the crazy larrying lately!
I was hoping to borrow your brilliant mind to confirm whether the sequence of events mentioned in this tweet is real or is it just various individual incidents cobbled together? would love anything you know about the things mentioned

Hi there, love! I can well understand why this sort of post might raise some doubts and cause quite a bit of confusion, especially if no context is provided. I’ll do my best to clarify things as much as possible, although I can tell you in advance that this theory has already been debunked.
But let’s start by saying that Harry’s tweet is real, and as you can see, it’s still up. And to this day, I don’t think we’ve ever found out exactly what he was referring to.
The Titanic scene recreated by Harry and Louis is also real, and is taken from the intro to ‘One Direction – Up All Night: The Live Tour’. This particular scene was presumably filmed in 2011, so a full two years before Harry’s tweet. The clip is quite short and appears briefly on screen at around the 1:24 mark.
Now, it is with the photo of Harry’s hand on the tour bus window that things start to get tangled up and confusing because of the so-called ‘Titanic theory’.
In 2013, a fan reportedly posted this infamous photo, claiming that the tour bus had started to move and that moans could be heard coming from inside, where, according to this fan, only Harry and Louis were present.
But there has never been any way to prove that any of this was true, let alone trace the source or even the date and location where this pic was supposedly taken. In short, the full story has been lost, assuming it ever existed. And after over a decade, it is truly an almost impossible task to piece it together, given that nothing new has emerged to date. We don’t even know with absolute certainty whether it is actually Harry’s hand. Personally, I believe it is, because of Harry’s distinctive little finger, and also because of what looks like the Peace ring. But I’m fairly certain that everything else was made up and it simply became headcanon story.
The fact that the photo is somewhat funnily reminiscent of the iconic scene in Titanic with the hand on the steamy car window has helped to fuel the theory. Or, more likely, this is precisely what sparked it in the first place. Or perhaps it started out as a joke, only to gradually turn into something that some people still believe actually happened.
What most likely happened is that Harry was simply waving to fans outside. Something quite common and innocent, then. This would also seem to be confirmed by another phototaken around the same time (who knows, maybe at exactly the same moment), which is very similar to the one used in the ‘Titanic theory’.
Let’s now turn to the scratches on Louis’ back. The theory suggests that, shortly after that photo was taken, Louis was seen with those marks, which were impossible to miss. And that, as I mentioned earlier, there were only him and Harry inside the tour bus. Another version claims it happened the following day. However, the truth is quite different.
The photo of Louis that is always shared is actually cropped, and the original shows that he was in fact not alone at all.
Here is another photo from the same day, showing Louis with his former bodyguard, Alberto Álvarez.
And to be honest, that doesn’t even look like a tour bus to me, but more like a van where the boys could change their outfits. These photos, in fact, date back to 21 July 2013, when One Direction were in Houston for the photo shoot for the special issue of Fabulous magazine, which came out in August. We know this thanks to the detailed timeline that we can read in this long but very useful post.
At this point, it’s worth adding that this theory also includes the anecdote that Louis bought a DVD that day to watch with Harry, and that it was just the two of them at the service station where they stopped after their show in Houston. But, my dear anon, that would open up a whole other discussion, involving other tweets and other films lol!, though I think it’s worth mentioning briefly as it confirms the date of 21 July 2013.
Now, according to the theory, the moment when Harry couldn’t sit properly also happened that day. But we know that is not true.
The photo/gif, in fact, dates back to 9 July 2013, when the band was in Toronto for a show on their tour (the moment was captured whilst they were performing ‘Summer Love’). So, this was about twenty days before the photo was taken of Louis with the alleged scratches on his back. Not to forget that Harry’s tweet mentioning the ‘Titanic for the first time’ face was posted in December.
In conclusion, the whole theory is based entirely on assumptions; something that perhaps started as a joke; and a few actual events that took place weeks or even months apart, but which have been pieced together to suggest that there was some sort of correlation, when in reality there isn’t any at all.
I hope this has been helpful and has clarified things a bit for you, or for anyone who might still come across posts of this kind, which unfortunately do nothing but fuel misinformation within the fandom, with false evidence and fabricated theories.
sir u are not subtle: a gif series | 4/?
Larry fucked up my life
No, this is wayyy too sappy for me! *plays it again*
Hi Allie!! I checked through your tags and I wasn't able to find it, so I wanted to ask you (and all your lovely followers too ofc) if this has been debunked: I saw a vid on tiktok of everyone celebrating Louis' birthday in the BTS footage of the midnight memories video. L was cutting a cake and everyone (Zayn, Liam, Niall, Ben Winston etc) was screaming HBD but Harry was in the corner kinda sad and quiet and not participating much? Just clapping. I wasn't able to find the full clip on youtube, just a small snippet. Anywayssss, if any of this is ringing a bell, let me know. Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi dear, how are you? I think you’re talking about this video:
https://youtu.be/QPsNnGjVQco
I’m just a little confused about your question though, about whether it was debunked… I’m not entirely sure what is to be debunked there. But I’m assuming it’s about the fact Harry seems kind of upset and clearly intentionally cut from the shot when everyone is singing, so we can talk about that!
I mean, it’s not very surprising looking back now and realising what they were going through at that moment in time. I have a tag for 2013 larry and there are a few discussions there about how it was a hard year for their closeting and how the narrative started to change about their *friendship*, it was when they stopped being allowed to travel together, they were physically separated at every single opportunity, the This Is Us premiere and 1D day are the perfect example that larry couldn’t be a thing anymore. The years following that were all about the end of their friendship and how they were basically mortal enemies. It was the year when a drastic change happened, where they stopped being allowed to interact altogether in front of the camera, basically. While behind the scenes things seemed to be the opposite.
Maybe Harry was cut in the video, but this look on his face is all I need to know:
And here’s Louis (quite possibly) wearing Harry’s jacket:
Here’s them being idiots:
So to sum things up, IMO they were under strict rules and *strongly advised* to don’t interact or stand next to each other. Harry looked very upset in the video and he had every right to look like that.
You probably know this moment during Over Again where Louis' voice cracks and Harry smiles like that but have you ever seen their reactions to it at the same time!? Because it makes it SO MUCH BETTER. I spent a bit of time syncing 2 angles of the same moment (synced thanks to the voice crack yep), and where Niall instantly bursts out laughing when it happens, Harry doesn't at all. He's just concerned, and only lights up once he sees Louis can laugh about it. He doesn't smile until he sees Louis smile. Ahem. HE DOESN'T SMILE UNTIL HE SEES LOUIS SMILE.
