[cavefairy]

hey you. train enjoyer. come talk to me coward. i wanna make plans to hang out outside of work :3

[spaceslouie]

1. I just recently following your blog. And I find that we have same opinion for the most part, or from your tags anyway. This by no means that you’d agree with me but can I share my opinion with you. Like I think that so many people have been too critical about his solo works. We really dont know anything. I feel like, Louis have been so appreciative about the opportunity he got, but it looks like we as fan cant even give him a chance. What if he make do with what he got. What if all this was..

2. the only thing on his hand. He said it himself, limited people to work with. Like, maybe the 5 of them dont get the same offers? I dont find it weird that H got the amount of support he got, and Louis got minimum exposure. If we can see it in a professional way, the party that did the offering have their reasons. Sometimes you dont get what you want no matter how hard you work for it. Its reality. That doesnt mean Louis dont deserve it. And people tend to forget, what you find rewarding could

3. be different from others. We want the best for him, and thats just it.. Why does it needs to be by the other 1D guys standard. I’m really emotional talking about Louis. Like, I want to respect what he do. I dont know the struggle he faced. This is the guy who hates their merch, their early music. I feel like the fandom so quick to talk but rarely listen. I dont claimed to know him, but I feel that Hes grateful for this opportunity. And I take my cue from him for the life HE live. thankyou :)

wow i . . got an ask! sorry it took me a while to answer this babe (depending on when u sent it) i dont come on this blog alot, i kinda just made a tumblr as an outlet for my thoughts and frustrations and to have a place to talk about louis lol

anyways i think we do have pretty similar feelings about the way things are going - mostly mine are just summed up by ‘idk what to think but i love louis and his music’ lol 

To be real tho, i’ve been a 1D fan since i was 12, in 2011, and i was a larrie from like 2012 to pretty much a few months ago (not that im an ‘anti’ now or anything, i just dont kno what to think). For most of my time as a 1D fan (and especially a larrie) the culture w/ us has been, for better or worse, to hyper-analyze and doubt (for lack of better words) everything we’re given and told. Tbh, since i changed my perspective a few months ago (mostly bc of solo!harry), ive pretty much just been constantly reevaluating everything ive known for the past 5/6 years and i really just have pretty much NO idea what to think, whatsoever. 

When it comes to solo!louis, ive just been trying to take it as it comes. key word is trying, bc 5/6 years of having a rock-solid idea of the “”truth”” (our ideas about the boys, management, their relationships, etc) is alot to overcome when u try to be objective. 

When u say that ppl have been too critical of louis and his stuff, im not really sure which ppl u mean or if u just mean in general - ive definitely seen some ppl who seem to be critical just for the sake of it, or bc they actually dont like louis, which, ya, thats definitely too critical. But for some of the ppl being critical, it seems like theyre coming from the same place i was before i changed my perspective - if i hadnt been so put-off by solo!harry, i probly would still be just as dedicated to the fandom “”truth”” and i would be critical of solo!louis like i was/we were of everything else. 

Basically, at this point, i think its just habit for alot of ppl to be critical and cynical. Or, even more, its generally more comfortable (especially when weve been telling ourselves for 5+ years that we know the “truth”) to be critical (in an all-knowing way like when ppl say “those stunts are so transparent” or something) than to admit that theres alot we dont kno. Or to admit that louis hasnt had the opportunities we thought he would have/we think he deserves, and theres not really anything to do about it.

Are they right to be critical? I honestly totally dont kno. But basically im done being critical just bc other ppl are - if something strikes me as wrong and worth being critical of, right off the bat, then ill criticize it. But if everything seems ok to me and i have no reservations and i see someone else complaining and making a big deal about it, i guess thats how i decide when someone is being too critical. Thats when it seems to me like theyre being critical just for the sake of it or bc thats what theyre used to. I think its important in our culture (1D fan/louie culture), at least for me in the place im in now, to just trust ur own instinct instead of looking to others to see if things are good or not.

At first i was a little confused by ur ask(s) bc it seems a little contradictory - u talk about how louis didnt get the best opportunities, and then u say ppl are being too critical. But i think i understand (maybe im projecting tho, bc this is how i feel about it). I think what i (and u, if im understanding ur ask rite) am feeling is that ppl want to place blame - we all want the best for louis, and we’re upset that it doesnt seem that he got it. We all love and appreciate louis, so it can be hard to see how other ppl wouldnt and how he wouldnt get all the opportunities we think he deserves. So we go off on his team, simon cowell, his record label, the other boys, etc., and we criticize them and everything louis puts out bc its through them/connected to them. 

But it really all comes down to the fact that regardless of what we think louis deserves, we all know that what he gets probly wont match up to that. Youre rite, he literally said that he didnt get that many opportunities, and we have to accept that. No matter how much we love and admire him, we have to realize that for various reasons the rest of the world doesnt (at least not yet). He wasnt the most famous member of 1D, or the one pushed as the most talented, and the fact that he has a unique voice makes him kindof an acquired taste. 

We have to realize that he is, like u said, doing the best w what hes got. We dont have the power to give him more, so from my perspective im just enjoying what we get and supporting it in every way i possibly can. Bc thats what being a fan is about - enjoying what u get, and supporting it so u continue to get it. We can wish he had more opportunities available, and even ask for what we want from him in polite and lighthearted ways - like tweeting him about his album, or nominating him for awards (like teen choice and stuff), or posting/tweeting about how we wish we had a video/photoshoot/etc as long as its nice and not demanding. But ya basically we are not in a position to give him opportunities so our only job (if we want it, which, being a louie, i do) is to support what he puts out. 

You said: “Like, maybe the 5 of them dont get the same offers? I dont find it weird that H got the amount of support he got, and Louis got minimum exposure. If we can see it in a professional way, the party that did the offering have their reasons. Sometimes you dont get what you want no matter how hard you work for it.” Basically, i totally agree w this and i think its totally ok to just enjoy what we get from louis w/o constantly worrying about how were getting it/what we ‘should’ be getting.

I am frustrated, and always have been, that louis doesnt get what the other boys do, but thats just the way it is. We have to accept that there isnt always someone to blame - for various reasons, louis has had less opportunities than the other boys, and theres nothing we can do about it. I would even go as far to say its not necesarily an injustice - like u said, he isnt the other boys, so we cant expect him to have the same situation as them. All we can do is support him and his music as much as we can/want to. 

anyway im SO sorry for turning this ask into a literal essay, i guess i had a lot to say and honestly im not sure how much of it is coherent or even on topic, it took me like an actual hour to write this all out and when i reread it… it didnt make as much sense as it did in my head lol. anyway i do think we hav some similar feelings and stuff and i really apreciate hearing ur thoughts! I hope we both get to enjoy bty (im so fuckin excited!!! from the teasers hes shared already its gonna be SO GOOD!!!) and i hope more good things happen for louis! tysm for sharing ur thoughts w me! 💙

Yo dog, you want to be busy for the next two hours? Do all the placement ask prompts :^)

oh boy heres another one. L E T S A G G O

sun: what makes you feel like you? - space, and the color purple, and comedy that is either slightly sassy, self depricating, or that toys with how much both parties know what the other is thinking.

moon: do you have problem with trust? - very much so. if you earn it though you will probably enjoy getting to know anything you could want to know from me. 

rising: how/what do people say you come off as? - im honestly not sure, although if i had to guess i think im probably a little offputting to uh. im not sure what to call them. the kind of people im immediately never gonna get along that well with. people who spend a lot of time pretending when it comes to how human they are, as far as like “pretending you are a perfect person with no flaws or weaknesses” goes. im not conveying this well but i hope you guys know the kind of people i mean. you couldnt have a metatextual conversation with them. theyre the kind of people who like soccer. eugh.                                                                                                                                           anyways i probably just kind of come off as slightly goofy to everyone else, or moody and sad, depending on if you only know me through tumblr lol

midheaven: what do you want to be when you grow up? - ded

venus: do you flirt more knowingly or unknowingly? - pffft. neither. you think i ever fuckin learned how to flirt? no sir. i couldnt make a move if my life depended on it i dont know shit about flirting. its one of my greates downfalls.

mars: when was the last time you got mad and why? - my one friend is a fuckin idiot politically. which is to say he doesnt actually know almost anything about politics, specifically current events, but still tries to argue with the rest of us when we try to tell him how it is. apparently object impermanence aplies to politics, so if you didnt see it happening yourself, it doesnt happen and doesnt exist.

         we had to inform him recently that the shitting nazis are back. how did he miss that??? thats fucking huge and terrible. how isnt he aware.

mercury: who’s your go-to person when you need to talk? - nothingpersonaldamascus. her blog is dead now, she managed to escape this hellhole of a website, good on her, but we still talk over skype and such all the time.

jupiter: when was the last time you got lucky? - [heres a picture of me] its weird that tumblr doesnt highlight links that you add to post in blue or something most of the time, but click those words in the brackets, baby.

saturn: what are you the weakest and strongest at? - weakest: making new friendships. why is it so damn hard i hate this shit im such a boring person. strongest: uhhh. fuckin. rambling on about tangential shit, but only if i already am comfortable around the person im rambling to.

uranus: are you rebellious and do you act upon it frequently? - i think i used to be, but i never really acted on it. and then i realized that it accomplishes nothing and lifes just so much easier if you chill and just do what youve gotta do without making it a fuckin hassle for everyone.

neptune: what was your best dream and why? - the time i got mugged by ghenghis khan and his mafioso bodyguards was oretty great. 

pluto: what is your biggest aspiration and why? - just to be in a happy relationship. this ones kind of boring i think, most everyone wants to find love dont they?

lilith: what’s your biggest turn on in someone? - someone who’s affectionate. if i feel like i have to overstep my bounds or risk making you uncomfortable at all i will get the coldest feet in the goddamn country. affection shows that thats not the case. also its jsut something that i have a huge need for all the time.

aries: what’s your favorite sport to play? - fucking dying. its where you fucking die instead of playing a sport.

taurus: are you a dog or cat person? - cat. mines been really lovey recently its cute.

gemini: are you introverted or extroverted? - introverted

cancer: when was the last time you cried and why? - last week actually, just due to being generally overwhelmed, there wasnt one thing in particular that set it off.

leo: what makes you the most confident? - making people laugh, but only if i know exactly whats funny.

virgo: what’s your strongest subject in school? - i think geology and geography. which are completely different things despite their similar names. geology is rock science obviously, but the geography course i took had more of a “social justice through the lense of the natural environment and how that relates to the way we use it” outlook. so that was neat.

libra: what’s your favorite make up brand? - why make up when you can make out? HEUHUEGH THANK YOU LADIES AND GENTLEMEN ILL BE HERE ALL NIGHT.

scorpio: what’s your most kept secret? - if i fuckin told you all it wouldnt be a very good secret  n o w   w o u l d   i t ?

sagittarius: do you like to party? - not often. i cant dance or anything like that, and all the parties me and my friends hosts are generally just like.. a bunch of us all hanging out in one place. but thats fine, i prefer that to the alternative

capricorn: what’s the last book you’ve read? - the d&d players handbook. spent all day making a character.

aquarius: do you believe in aliens? - its statistically likely, but fuck if they arent gonna be all sorts of way the fuck far away so we cant meet them.

pisces: how frequently do you remember your dream? - usually i cant remember them for more than a day unless i tell someone how they went down, so generally i tell nothingpersonaldamascus when i wake up after one.
