I know I shouldn’t make everything about Larry because MP deserves to be its own thing, and Tom and Patrick deserve to be their own characters separate from Harry and Louis, but when I saw that smoking scene on the couch, my brain screamed at me, “I know you hate to smoke without me” especially with Harry being the little spoon.

well to be fair it's a time honored staple of being a fan to see your OTP in every song and romantic scene even when neither of them is an actor in said scene or singing the songs, so no need to feel guilty for being a fan having fan feels! Tom and Patrick will be just fine lol.

#anyway it is interesting the contrast between how well Harry does submersing himself in tom #and being him #compared to the times where it does seem like a bit of his own natural physicality bleeds through #no way of knowing if its the case #but there were moments when he made himself small that its hard not to see as intimacy as filtered through harry #rather than through tom #interesting also if that was part of harrys read of tom and deliberate though #and I think it might be the case that it is a deliberate storytelling choice by him #this man who thinks of himself as coarse compared to patrick #who feels he needs to take charge and provide something he really can't in bed with marion and to protect and serve*#finding space in the intimacy with patrick to be small and let himself be cared for #choice or not #its hard not to see some harry in it #*(ACAB but as Patrick sees he believes in being something most police do not and is really out there trying to be this person and do good)#(there's a whole other essay here about Harry/Tom and misguided ideas of how to better the world tbh)#holy shit I can't believe its really true I can edit tags now this is brilliant guys #blah blah blah
