Literally those worlds need to be SO separate

okay that was so weird. my post about my ✨recent accomplishments✨ blew up and I was getting a lot of attention from accounts I’m super uncertain about. deleted it to soothe my anxiety that somehow my fan account would end up in the academia circle my GOD.

like seriously are these well-followed bots or real people congratulating me about my exams I’m so confused

100

looking at you countless accounts that followed me who have nothing to do with larry or one directionand are thus concerning me

100

hiyaaaa please only follow me if you’re interested in one direction fandom-related thingssss that’s all I post about!!

I totally get that. It kind of feels like balancing between two worlds right now.

thank youuuuu Dee 🥹🫶🏻 I always appreciate your support and encouragement endlessly!!!!

not yet a doctor!!! These are the exams that advance me to candidacy, so I still have to write the dissertation :) the dissertation is all that’s left, though!! Thank you!!

EEEEP thank you!!!! that’s the hard part about the app split, but I totally understand it. I’m trying to use bsky more, but I barely have had any time for social media lately and my default is still X (mostly because of my private account on there) 😭 miss you too!

this is soooo good thank you 🥹 I usually use perfume websites so this is a much easier way to get at the same thing!

This (and your subsequent scrolling) are making my night 🥹🫶🏻

Okay, that’s a wrap on DWMS’ bday celebration!! Thanks for coming along for the ride today 🥹🫶🏻

H: 1. If I had the coordination and dedication, I’d like to try gymnastics or ballet. I want to learn how to do a split! 2. I’ll buy out a candle shop if I’m left unattended. Lou enables me, but w/in reason. 3. I like to put on lip plumper & kiss L. He falls for it every time!

000

L: 1. I weirdly like taking the train. It’s good people-watching, and it makes me feel like I’m a part of something. 2. I’m getting better at cooking, and I love surprising H with a meal when he gets home from work! 3. I’m learning Italian (slowly but surely)

100

H: His patience — with me, with his students, with his career… it’s all out of deep care. L: He gives so freely. A smile, a laugh, his heart, his creativity… the world is infinitely better with him in it, and he pours so much of himself into everything he does.

Thread of dwms L’s Q&A: He’s tried, and he’s succeeded! It’s minimal in comparison, but I throw on a cleanser & moisturizer every night. I stick with it 1) bc it feels nice, & 2) we get to stand at the double vanity & get ready for bed together every night. It’s proper romantic.

120

I don’t think I’ll ever be a sportswear/casual-wear designer, but I love how L layers. He’s so good with accessories — sunglasses, hats, jackets, shoes. I think about that with my models. He also takes risks so willingly, & he’s teaching me to do even more of that in my designs!

020

If we’re talking actual perfumes, I love woody/spicy scents with a hint of gourmand. I also love fresh rain, cinnamon, and clean linen. But my fave is L’s deodorant. Idk why, but it’s even more comforting/attractive than when he wears cologne! It’s just home and familiarity :)

Thread of dwms H’s Q&A: Is it cheesy to say my wedding looks? I did kind of wear that /for/ him. I like to steal his clothes, & he gets extra smug when I wear them to work. I love wearing a graphic tee of his under a blazer to the studio, & he loves when I come home in it!

130

They generally split their time! I envision NYC being their home base for awhile. H is just so established there, and L gets a professorship there after his PhD. I imagine them spending their summers in Italy/England, and whenever L goes on sabbatical, they go to Italy/England!

The Italy chapter always sticks out to me (bc it’s the only chapter I wrote top-to-bottom in one go). But honestly, H giving his first bj is a fave. I love how silly/eager he is & how it embodies how domestic/attached H&L had become. I also love the chat w/ L&Z abt L’s feelings!

As for grad school, they agree that H will ONLY pay his rent. L only agreed to this bc he knows they’ll move in together once his lease is up, & at that point they’ll be more like partners who “split the finances.” He’s not one to have a complex abt H making more than him! (2/2)

100

It’s something they have to work through for sure, & Harry is a gift-giver out of love. At first, it does make L uncomfortable (esp the gifting), but he learns to set boundaries w/H about what he feels comfortable receiving while also understanding it’s gifted out of love. (1/2)

100

They have similar love languages, just expressed in different ways. They love to give acts of service, but they both struggle to receive it (wondering if they deserve it, etc). They’re both very into words of affirmation & quality time, but H needs more words & L needs more time.

Ask the author Q&A thread: Thank you!! 🥹 It honestly stems from what I like to read. I am the miscommunication trope’s biggest hater. I think it can be used well in a fic, but for fics like DWMS, the “message” of the fic is translated better with active communication!
