sometimes i reread my old pre / early post-s4 fics and i feel like i probably wrote this exchange post 4x09 for obvious reasons but

“I never thought I wouldn’t understand my mother. I never thought I’d understand King Harrow so well, but...” “Callum.” Soren pulls him away from the balcony—away from the moon. “There is always someone else out there. There is always the ability to move on. Your mother found happiness because she went looking. King Harrow didn’t, too choked up with guilt and—” “It wasn’t guilt,” Callum almost shouts, jerking away. “It wasn’t—not completely. He just—he knew, Soren. He knew. And I never thought it’d happen to me, but sometimes you fall in love and that’s it. It’s over. There will never be anyone else. There could never be anyone else. And I—” He grips his chest over his heart, looking so heartbreakingly angry at himself yet resolute that Soren doesn’t know what to say. It’s like watching someone drown without any water. “I know.”

Shenanigans ensue

[1ddiscourseoftheday]

Liam was a boy, and then a man, who suffered so much trauma and pain. He was bullied as a child and then lived a nightmare that I think none of us can really imagine of having that triggering experience replicated on a literally global public scale. He became a man who inflicted trauma on others. He was an addict who was unable to find a way out of that disease, and now never will, but who was open and vulnerable about his struggles. He was an incredibly talented musician and artist and an absolutely integral part of one of the most important bands of a generation; his voice and songwriting and skill in the studio shaped every aspect of what One Direction became at their best. He loved that band and being a part of that experience with his whole being and would never have stopped celebrating what they meant to us and to the world. He had problems and did bad things; that doesn't mean he was a bad person who didn't deserve to be loved and helped to heal- everyone deserves that- and the fact that that's not something that can ever happen now is devastating. I was very distressed by many of his actions; and I cared deeply about this man I didn't know and wished for better for him than this outcome.

I'm so deeply, deeply SAD tonight. I'm sad for Liam, who will never now have the chance to look back on this hard time and reflect on how far he's come, and for Liam's family, for his parents and his sisters who loved and supported him so much, and for everyone in the 1D band family and circles. And I'm sad for us. It feels like nothing will ever be quite the same, and that's hard and sad and shocking. It's a special kind of doubled grief, to mourn the loss of the person, and also of what he meant to us in this strange world of parasocial fanning, for the real him and also for the version of him that we made up and attached so much meaning to and for the escape that brought us. For him, and also for the easy uncomplicated joy of listening to those beautiful songs from happier times, which might never feel the same again. For the other boys, who we love so much and wish we could shield from suffering and loss and pain. For our fellow fans, who we also worry about the impact of this on. Everything about this is terrible, and I am sending so much love out to all of you. We are not alone, and it's okay to feel complicated emotions and it's okay to mourn and it's okay to care about how it effects you and your life, whatever you're feeling- it's okay. We are here with you. We are 1D family.
