me, bursting through your bedroom wall in a shower of dust: bUT that hug before they go onstage is what we've always wanted from One Direction, and that's what makes them unsustainable as a phenomenon. What we always wanted from them was what they did not give to us intentionally

you: wh

me, briskly removing my shoes and shaking fragments of rubble out of them: One Direction is perhaps the first band to exist entirely within the Panopticon, from the very beginning, and yet even that was not enough for us. Can you imagine how difficult it would become to hold onto a "self" when what people want most from you are the moments of your life that specifically are NOT FOR THEM? It wasn't just what they DID, we wanted to know what they FELT, constantly. We demanded to know but we did not want to be TOLD. The knowledge could only be "authentic" if it was not meant for us

you: why are you in my house

me, climbing into your bed and pulling your blankets up to my chin: The endless "documentaries," the social media -- we had an unprecedented, and unprecedentedly intimate, degree of access to these people, and still what we valued most were secrets and accidents. What we wanted was their interiority, and when we could not have that we invented it. Wouldn't you resent having to constantly be GRATEFUL for that grasping, rapacious love? I would

you: are you crying?

me: We wanted to love them by devouring them, and now we have nothing to eat but our own hearts. can you bring me a hot water bottle

There should be a warning that comes up before you do something you're going to hyperfixate on like "warning: this is about to set your brain on fire. Do you wish to continue?"

the thing is I am pro-rpf on principle, but I do think you should keep it away from the actual people you're shipping. but it is NOT out of concern for their comfort (insert pete wentz bank account post), it's for the same reason that like animal behaviorists and field biologists and such try to stay out of view when they're observing animals in the wild. don't tip them off it's gonna to skew the results of my study.

rule 1 of rpf have fun it's all fun and games rule 2 ignore rule 1 it's all real and true rule 3 ignore rules 1&2 just do cognitive dissonance rule 4 be better than the larries but if you have the ability to hack into airport security cameras well what better use is there than for rpf

Let's fucking go: One Direction

i'm about to age myself by like twenty years at this point but if this were the years on tumblr when you could call in, yes, CALL IN to a number connected to your tumblr account and record a voice memo that would post to your blog, i would have swiftly and immediately done so and sang the entirety of what makes you haha. so please imagine me doing so now.

one of the boys is liam. and the other is louis. (?) i don't know who either of them are and could not pick out either of them in a police lineup. one of them is dead. i don't remember which. zayn has two eyes. harry and taylor swift committed vehicular manslaughter and the united states government IS COVERING IT UP. niall should petrol bomb you. there might be another one im forgetting.

editing this to say that i got an email today from ticketmaster that went niall! mom jeans! and while i'm like 45% confident that mom jeans is a band..... i'm pretending he wears mom jeans

not all ships are For wanting them to be in a happy healthy relationship together. sometimes shipping two characters means you want them to be erotically obsessed with each other and become entwined in a mutually toxic love affair for a few months and then horrifically break each other's hearts and never speak again. sometimes you want them to be codependent best friends with enough repression to explode a submarine who only make out/have sex when they're at their worst. sometimes you want them to pine after each other for years, never say anything, and then die. sometimes you want them to kill each other. this, too, is shipping

best trope: "ugh I guess I'll tolerate you for the time being, but this is a conditional, tactical alliance, and the second I get what I want, we're parting ways" to "you are the only good in the world and I will protect you to my dying breath"
