#harry preferenc

[daughterofsarenrae]

I can’t bring myself to do any deep dives into political podcasts or discussions, would you summarize the latest? What are the reactions post debate? Most of my coworkers are going to vote trump but they treat me (an obviously queer person) so kindly. It’s dispiriting.

hiya! preferencing everything i say here with a "this is an extremely close race and will be until the very end" disclaimer but! we are not in doom and gloom mode we are in determined hope mode imo

post debate: fox news anchors were saying on air immediately after the debate that trump lost. like straight up they COULD not spin it in a way that he won. harris challenged him to another debate like hours after and i think it was today where he was like "no i totally won 100% so im not doing another" which. makes him look like a coward running away from facing her again bc he and everyone else knows he lost. so that's fun! of course he could go back on that bc he switched between he would/wouldnt do this debate like 8 times leading up to it. u cant trust anything out of his mouth! who knew?

ANYWAYS so that post i rb'd earlier was true: about 1/4 trump voters said the debate made them reconsider their vote, and i thiiiink wapo cited 6% of trump voters DID change their vote post debate. debates dont traditionally have anything to do with election results but it might be a good indicator in this one. most undecided voters' stance is "we dont know enough about harris's positions/policies" bc her campaign is like. 1.5? 2? (i forget) months old. the debate was her chance to lay her policy out for a HUGE audience- i think it was 67 million people watching? whereas trump: everyone knows who he is and what his views are. he is a known figure and people have made decisions. she is not known. and her core message that debate was "i am not trump or biden, i'm a new way forward" which for all of the people who were not wanting to vote for either trump/biden (bc of policies or age or WHATEVER) is important. national polls are close with harris trending up basically since her campaign started, but the important polls are the swing state ones, which typically are either tied or harris up by a tinyyyy bit.

the important thing here is: trump has his base. they will vote for him no matter what. generally he's kind of capped off how many voters he can get. people who are undecided/abstaining wouldve committed to him by now. harris is the unknown here, which means she has the greatest potential for growth, esp among undecideds and abstaining voters. the general view is they want to know more and are open to learning more. she's only done the one big mainstream news media interview so far bc she's been uh. a little busy! between constant rallies and the dnc and debate prep and such, but she's also been doing (almost?) daily local radio interviews. extremely grassroots campaign stuff. but also she's gotten fuckin. liz and dick cheney's endorsements. and a lot of other republicans. AND ALSO one piece of extremely good post debate news: taylor swift's endorsement. i think i saw a number today where in the 24 hours since her post, over 400,000 people clicked the link to the voter registration website so. extremely encouraging

the maga push to make harris/walz seem super extremist is very funny and also not sticking at all bc walz is literally the most normal guy ever. and every time jd vance shows his face he says something even more self-incriminating. trump distances himself SO much from vance it's so funny. clown show party over there. trump keeps flip-flopping on signing an abortion ban bc the evangelicals will hate him if he doesnt but it's also an extremely extremely unpopular position so he can't really say anything about it without alienating part of his voters

ANYWAYS this is. i guess kind of a summary? i didn't link sources bc im lazy and just got back from work but i will find them if u want me to. and also if u have any other things u wanna know this was extremely general

keep donating keep talking to people keep volunteering! the more voters we get out the better chance we have. esp if you're in the south check your voter registrations. block anyone who encourages you not to vote. most importantly dont give in to the fear. it's ok and normal to be anxious and afraid of this election, but don't let it shut you down. seek news that doesn't just talk about trump, elevate news that talks about harris. remember- people know enough about him that they're committed to him already. letting people know about harris' policies is going to do much more for bringing undecideds into the fold than talking about whatever insane shit trump is on about on any given day. AND ALSO campaign and donate for every other democrat on the ballot. vote blue up and down. let's set harris up for success with a congress that'll actually let her do shit

Can you do a blurb on Harry writing Sweet Creature about you?

Yes! I can! I LOVE Sweet Creature! It’s kinda really long, and I might be a bit rusty at this so I apologize ahead of time!

Send in your blurb request for Harry or Niall!

You and Harry had been friends since you were young teens. He was the best friend next door that you always had a crush on, and you were the girl who thought you’d never had a chance with him. I mean, how could you? You thought a lot, he was the prettiest and sweetest guy you had ever met and laid your eyes on, and you were just….well… you. Nothing special. Every summer you would go stay with him and his family while your parents would make their trips back to the states. Because you couldn’t stand the thought of being away from him, and he would always tell you how he wouldn’t want to be away from you either. The two of you were inseparable. One thing was for certain. He was very important to you, and you were always super important to him. At least you thought….You were constantly by Harry’s side throughout his whole singing career. From him singing on occasion from when you two would hang out as teens, to you waking up super early in the morning and riding with him to his X Factor audition. You were always there, or at least you wanted to be. Things kind of started to drift apart once One Direction really took off, and Harry got super busy. “Sorry I gotta go!” is how he seemed to end a lot of your guys’ conversations on the phone or face time. And you hated to admit it, but the two of you would fight from time to time because all you wanted was to talk with him, your heart ached to be close with him like you once were. You were super proud of him, achieving what he had always wanted to do. And watching him in interviews, you always smiled to yourself because you saw that he was still just the same old Harry, just in fancier clothing. But you couldn’t help but be a bit upset at his new lifestyle. It tore you up on the inside, because you wanted to be the friend who was always there for him, but you couldn’t help but get jealous because this new found fame took him away from you. Most of the time your talks consisted on where things were going wrong with your friendship. He didn’t seem to have too many troubles with it, but he knew that you were struggling and he wanted to do everything he could to make sure you guys still remained friends like you always have been. 

Years passed, One Direction took a hiatus. And you got super busy between going to school and working at your part time job. You only heard the words “Harry Styles” from things you’ve heard on tv, random people out in public, or the occasional texts you would send back and forth with him. They were never full conversations it seemed, because a lot would end directly in the middle of a conversation and he would reply the next day apologizing because of how busy he was and you’d just brush it off and tell him it was okay, even though you weren’t really okay. 

 Whenever you’d head back home to visit your family along with his, Anne and Gemma never really talked about him too much around you, because they knew you were having the hardest of times of being away from him, But the last time you visited with them, Gemma came up to you, and gently pulled you to the side, “Have you listened to his new album yet like he asked you?” She asked. You just shook your head no “It’s hard hearing his voice, and not being able to actually see him.” You replied “Don’t get me wrong, I love Harry and everything about him, but as the years go by, it doesn’t get any easier, it just gets harder. We were just always so close and spent every day together, and then one morning it seemed like I woke up, and now it’s like we’re just acquaintances.”

Gemma smiled softly and shook her head, “Well, first of all, you and Harry could never just be acquaintances…you guys have always been to close to be just that.” She lightly put her hand on your shoulder, “It’s his first solo one….you might want to give it a listen. We both know it’d mean the world to him. Plus he’s coming down to do his first live performance of his album here where it all started…And we both also know that you’d feel pretty humiliated for not knowing the words to his songs.” You both kind of chuckled and you let out a sigh and nodded your head.

.

So here you were, a 23 year old, sitting alone in her room with nothing but the faint sound of the heater kicking on and filling the air with it’s warmth. The yellow shine from the sun setting was lightly illuminating everything that the light touched. You just sat there, with your laptop sitting on your lap. You couldn’t help but feel like that teenage girl that you once were, having all of your emotions start to come back over the boy that your heart never got over. 

You slowly typed his name into the YouTube search bar, you felt the nerves start to kick in when you saw his album was the first thing that popped up. Clicking on the album, you couldn’t help but sit and stare, looking at his album cover as one of his songs started playing in the background. It was his back, it was him. You found yourself taking your mouse and lightly tracing the silver necklaces that were around his neck, draping onto his smooth back. That back, you closed your eyes and immediately the memories began to flood your mind. 

.

You remembered all of those times of playing in the pool with him, water splashing everywhere and the faint smell of sunscreen was in the air. It was summer time. The only time you would let Harry give you a piggy back ride was in the water, because you felt you were so fat that you’d break his back. Harry never liked it when you would hate on yourself, and when you’d tell him why you didn’t want to, he would just always reply with a soft look on his face “Oh just stop it Y/N. You’re amazing, just the way you are.” 

.

Time had passed, and you just laid there. With your back against your bed, your eyes staring at the white ceiling, your thoughts racing as each song played one by one. Your body was filled with so much emotion, pain from not being as close with him anymore, guilt for feeling upset at his career, and most importantly heart ache. Heart ache for wanting to reach back out to him, and have him close with you again.

The soft melody of the guitar being strummed at the beginning of Sweet Creature began to echo through the room. And his soft, soothing voice started to vibrate your laptop, causing you to lay one of your hands on it. Just so maybe, you can feel even a bit closer to him. Like you were before. 

As each lyric was sang in his soothing voice, you couldn’t help but connect to not only the song itself, but to each word that was sang…could it…could it be? Everything you couldn’t help but to connect it to you and experiences you’ve had together. But it can’t be, it couldn’t be written about you…Could it?

You quickly sat up, emotions running through you harder and quicker than ever. There’s no way he could’ve written a song about you….right? “I just miss him so much that my mind is trying to make it about me.” You thought. You just kept playing it on loop after loop trying to convince yourself it was just your imagination.

A swift knock on your front door made you come back to reality. You quickly got up, and rushed downstairs with the song still playing on a continuous loop through your tiny apartment as you quickly gathered yourself and opened your front door.

“Can I help y-” You paused, your jaw almost dropping to the ground instantly, you felt as if you were going to inhale your stomach as you stood there looking at who knocked on your door. “H-Harry?”

He flashed a simple smile, revealing one of his dimples as he was leaning on his hand on your doorway. He wore a black trench coat, with a dark pair of jeans and a simple shirt. His chocolate curls were kind of in a mess, flying which ever way they wanted to go. Harry let out a soft chuckle “Now, I know it’s been a long time, but you don’t need to act so shocked when you see me.” 

Before you could find your words he already had you wrapped up in a tight, warm embrace. You closed your eyes, a sense of comfort instantly filled your body, as well as the scent of his musky cologne. You had waited for this, for so much longer than you could count. After your shock finally calmed down, you wrapped your arms very tightly around him, where your hands were firmly resting on his back. 

The urge to not let go was so strong, almost too strong. But Harry didn’t mind, you heard a soft chuckle leave him, as he held on to you even tighter. You were finally calm after all this time, your soul finally felt at peace, and felt so happy. That was, until you heard Sweet Creature playing upstairs.

Your eyes quickly widened and you left his grasp “I-uh. I gotta go upstairs to grab something.” 

He looked at you puzzled, until his mouth slowly formed into a smirk. “So I take it you heard my new album.”

You blushed, then quickly you turned around and started to run up the stairs. You heard his footsteps follow you as you entered your room “Yeah, I started to listen to it” You spoke.

As you were leaning down to pause your laptop. He quickly grabbed you and turned you around. “How do you like the song I wrote for you?”

You paused, you couldn’t believe what he had told you. You thought it was a dream almost. You looked at him confused “W-What do you mean you wrote for me?”

He smiled softly again and pulled you closer. “I felt bad.” He started. “I wasn’t treating you as the person I adored the most like I used to. I got so caught up with everything, and every day that I had to rush you off the phone, or reply late to a text message, it was eating me up. I missed you Y/N.” He said your name as he softly tucked a piece of your hair behind your left ear. “I wanted to give you something special because you’ve been so special to me. I wanted you to hear it and have it be a reminder that no matter how busy it gets, you’re always on my mind and in my heart…” He paused and tears slowly started to fill your eyes. 

As the song was closing to an end, he grabbed you by your waist and pulled you closer as he looked lovingly into your eyes and sang with the song ever so softly “When I run out of road, you bring me home……You’ll bring me home.”

For the farming sim game: 🥔, 🍋, 🍅, aaaand 🍐 for FoMT and Stardew! (I had a hard time picking questions lmao these are all really fun)

Aww, thank you 💕 I'm glad people are enjoying them.

🥔(Potato) - Favourite non-romanceable character

FoMT:

Is it any surprise that I pick Harris? 😅 He was just another NPC to me originally, but over time I've really grown to love this big Teddy bear.

If Harris was a bachelor, though, then I'd choose Barley/Mugi. He's such a sweet, kind old man. I want to adopt him as my grandpa, please.

Nearly everyone in Mineral Town feels like family to me, at this point 😅 I love (almost) all of them.

SV:

Kinda hard to choose just one, tbh. I like a lot of the side characters. Linus is a sweetheart, and Clint reminds me somewhat of Harris.

But I think I like George the best. Grumpy old man who warms up to you gradually as you show him kindness? Check. Tragic backstory? Check. Genuine heart of gold beneath his gruff exterior? Check.

🍋(Lemon) - Least favourite character

FoMT:

I'm sorry, I just don't like Won/Huang. His first event - where you meet him at Zack's, and he ogles Karen and gives her preferencal treatment because she's pretty - just left a really sour taste in my mouth. And it doesn't help that he's quite arrogant and so obsessed with money.

SV:

Does Morris the Jojamart manager count? 😅 No? OK, then.

Probably Mayor Lewis. He refuses to settle down with Marnie, even though she clearly wants to, because he's "worried about his reputation"?! Big red flags there, Marnie! And besides, what kind of mayor uses town funds to commission a golden statue of himself instead of putting that money back into the town through, say, repairing the bus service to the city?!

🍅 (Tomato) - Favourite and least favourite festival?

FoMT:

Since I've already talked about the Animal Festivals and the Horse Races, I'll mention another event I really love: the Harvest Festival.

The whole town getting together to cook a giant potluck, with everyone bringing something along, has such a warm, homey vibe for me. I really get a sense of community from this festival. I love it, and all its variations across the games.

Least favourite is probably White Day/Valentine's Day. It's a non-event if you're not high enough with anyone. And if you're high enough with enough candidates, you have to hang around on your farm most of the day waiting for them to arrive. I want to get on around town and the mountain on my daily routine, not sit around at home waiting all day.

SV:

I think the festivals are sadly lacking in this game, especially after all the interesting events that HM/SoS has to offer.

My favourite of the few available is the Stardew Valley Fair, because you can interact with a lot of the stalls, and because its the only festival where your farming actually comes into play.

My least favourite is probably Spirit's Eve: after you've done it the first year, there's really nothing to do in subsequent years.

🍐(Pear) - Favourite rival pairing (Canon or non-canon)?

FoMT:

Karen x Rick is a brilliant pairing. So is Gray x Mary. Both of them feel like they complement each other really well.

Non-canon: I'm really growing to like the idea of Ann x Kai. I feel like they'd have some really good chemistry.

SV: No rival pairs in this game, alas, so we'll have to go with non-canon.

I think Harvey x Penny would be a sweet couple. Probably extremely traditional and low-key, but I think they'd work well together.

I'll answer your other ask separately, since this has gone on quite a bit 😅

[neo-shitty]

toffee!

yeah same, i follow some fic accs that occaisionally post smut and its like mmmmm is the fluff writing enough to balance the posts that gives me finger burn trying to scroll past it? but yeah thats probably the way to go

ah i wasnt there for the teaser but i can imagine that was tantalising. lmaoo yes but to be fair i do have a writing acc called channiesbigheart so... balancing it out? but i absolutely am whipped beyond belief. it was a TRAVESTY how COULD they have. yeah the b sides gave him more lines but they werent the ones that were performed over and over at stages. yessss the line distribution in this album is impeccable, im pretty sure the thunderous stuff was some of their best distribution

hehe i can understand that, sometimes putting someone in a situation so horrible it would be considered a violation of human rights is theraputic, ya know? mmmm the differences are a bit nuts, it was 14 degrees today and in less than a week its going to be 32 or smth. BROOO that would be legendary, i bet theyd treat their artists rlly well and have great music as well ahhh but its a lot of work adn commitment. yES that is a mood if ever i heard one.

its the same in australia as well, sadly, you have people who hold up harry styles and lil nas x for breaking gender roles and wearing make up adn steryotypical womens clothing (and keep in mind i have infinite respect for both of them theyre honestly doing so much for the de-dehumanising of gay people and those who wear whatever they want), and calling the kpop boys gay and other things for doing the same thing, when theyve been doing it for years and gotten no recognition smh its so tragic. yes, anyway YES ONLY 6 MONTHS I AM FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES A BBY STAN altho i considered myself a fully fledged stay like 2 days after i got into them cos i just spent all day researching and fixating. YES someone said it. it feels like theyre losing a huge chunk of why a lot of people liked their music in teh first place, which was that whole dna, dope, fire mood. and even doing bright songs is fine, liek they should do what they want but i feel liek the western music industry is so fucking toxic that they feel pressured into making these decisions. dont get me wrong, theyre good decisions from a business perspective, theyre getting record breaking sales but still. mmm yeah honestly yg just needs to get its shit together or get out

oooh! not into nct but i see a lot of him, he seems rlly talented. ahh yes another channie ult lmaoo i feel that, my list is growing in leaps and bounds as well. mmm yeah i think i will, im just going to try to save enough money :) mingi appealed to me mostly for the voice (like felix smh what is it with me and deep voiced bois) but also his soft visuals and the whole cutesy thing he has going on i rlly liked. yes i did get into them while he was on hiatus, but im still mostly a casual stan, ill listen to the album when it comes out but i dont think ill obsessively look over everything to do with it, like skz. HAH WE'RE MORE SIMILAR THAN I THOUGHT. lmaooo the thot line describes them perfectly, why are they all so damn attractive. especially seonghwa, like that man looks like a character from a book, cardan greenbriar vibes anyone? mmhmm! his vocals are absolutely insane. ty! yeah im excited altho idk how theyre every going to beat border:carnival, that shit was impeccable. ahh no stress, enjoy teh groups you stan atm!

ahh thank you so much, ill keep that in mind. hehe thats good! hopefully its soon :( ah ty, it means a lot. ill think abt that and hopefully talk abt it a little more :)

ah, no it was inside our gymnasium but to get to the other side of the stage you had to exit the building, go around the back and then enter through the other stage door. ah tysm! im glad too. mmm same, they baffle me. ;n; noo so sad :( ahh, thats um not smth i put on here, but im in high school so make of that what you will :)

thank you! ive done a majority of them, i just have maths, an english presentation and an economic assignment due now so im pretty much home free. yeah i feel like hes the epitome of here for you while being inescapably far away. haha she sounds like one of my friends. lmaooo why is that me. hmmm i feel like youve answered a lot of them in that answer so maybe just ateez, enha, txt and bp? if you stan them? :)

ahhh no problem at all, proud of you for managing to overcome the procrastination! progress! mmm thats good! ahh pls do let me know if you ever decide that, i cant promise i wont cry but do what you gotta do :)

<3 w.a. 🐺

hi! sorry for the late reply, i didn't know how to construct sentences yesterday e.e

yeah sometimes it's the perfect balance! i personally don't like fics that focus mainly on the filth? the plot has to carry the whole fic somehow and the smut is just something to add to the mix. also, i'll follow you on your writing blog! i keep forgetting to do so, damn it.

"sometimes putting someone in a situation so horrible it would be considered a violation of human rights is theraputic, ya know?" putting it this way just silenced me but yes. angst just feels more realistic. it isn't always happy endings irl so i tend to do it a lot.

falling into skz is so easy! it felt like that for me too. stanning them felt like getting sucked into a blackhole. also yes i agree. kpop is nothing but an industry after all and it runs on money so i get why they do what they do as well.

i suggest we not talk about haechan because i will literally not shut up but yes my boy is an ace :( chan is also sooooo easy to love. and the chan's rooms just solidified his place as ult. having something to look forward to every week at a time when my mental health was just plummeting into the depths of tartarus just helped me be stable. oh yeah, mingi's deep voice is indeed sexc. and he has some wack ass duality as well! and i think seonghwa was one of the people i nearly considered as bias just because of his visuals because wow that's one beautiful face. and true, idk how enha's going to beat border:carnival. i don't like all the tracks simply bc of taste preferenceds but i like more than one so i consider that a lot already.

bro that gym should've had some sort of a covered walk :// also i miss being in high school sO DAMN MUCH. but i still feel like i am because time stopped when quarantine started and i was still in senior year at the time.

my ateez bias is wooyoung! it wasn't that much of a shocker to my kpop stan irls because i was a jimin stan for the longest time. enhypen is jake and they kept pointing out that he looked like seungmin sometimes so it's like chan's aussie-ness with a tinge of seungmin (the other guy in my skz bias line, in case i haven't mentioned it). txt is huening kai! i find it hard to believe that he's my age because he looks a lot younger? o.O and he always looks good damn :(( sigh for blackpink it's lisa! i tend to bias the maknaes of yg groups, it's a pattern i've noticed but don't intentionally do!

DON'T WASTE YOUR TEARS OMFG. you can always reach me elsewhere if i like disappear off this blog.

That first time, it was just a brush, really. The back of his hand, against hers. She knew, probably in greater detail than she should, that the palm of James’ hand was covered in calluses, his left more than his right, preferencing his throwing arm. But the back of his hand, that was silky smooth.
