I’m new to the fandom-was it a big deal when the mv for Best Song Ever came out? 3 of them had queer roles in it and I just thought that was so brave for the time.
Hi, anon!
Veronica Malik was a very big deal! She/he/they took almost all the fandom's attention. Leeroy seemed a bit performative and stereotypical, and i don't think many read Marcel as queer. More like a timid nerd.
People were expecting H as the woman and L as Leeroy, so putting the most straight passing ones in the queer roles and L and N dressed up as old unattractive men were sort of disappointing.
I just watched the video again. I didn't realise this until now, but the video is basically 1D recjecting different queercoded boyband looks, and tips from a stereotypical queer man, as not them and something they don't identify with. One underlying message to take from it is that "we're not queer". It's a b win*ton and j cor*en video, so i'm not surprised...
Having 404 pop up In my feed has made me remember when I was like 13 and the best song ever MV came out and I was simping the fuck out of Marcel and me having to hide the fact I was so turned on by Harry in that MV cause we were all like 12/13 and my mates were all like “ He looks ridiculous.” 🫠🤭
HAHAAHHAHA I LOVE ITTTTTTTT yes yes we can pretend this is Marcel if Marcel was actually a total asshole with zero feelings AKDKAS
Well this has been in my head all night until now in the afternoon I never read any of your posts about a threesome so here is my concept in case you ever want to write about those.
Think of Harry and Marcel as twins. Y / N is with Harry and they both come to the conclusion (because Y / N primarily proposes it) that they would like to try someone else.The first thing they both think is "Marcel!" When both of them consider it, they notice him nervous because it is the first time they have proposed something like this. As a way to relax the nervous Y / N plays with his sweater, looks at his eyes covered by magnifying glasses (as he is dressed in the best song ever mv).Marcel looks at his twin who gives him a smile giving him to understand that he is fine. When he totally relaxes he starts a rough and dirty sex session Daddy, Y / N and Marcel dedicate dirty words and phrases to each other that make them pump until they end up inside and make Marcel lose that innocent side of a boy with glasses.
in the concept of the trio I forgot to say that I am anon 🍷

7. if you could go back to any show from the uan tour which would it be and why?
niall said in an interview recently (i don’t remember which one or i would link it) that the watford show (the first show of uan) was the band’s worst performance because none of them remembered stage marks and who was supposed to sing which part, and it was all a mess. and i’d just love to experience that.

OH MY GOD! I just watched Best Song Ever mv again and I just! CAnt! like dayum. Do you know any Marcel!Harry fics? pls pls pls
We found a couple of bottom Louis fics with Marcel and they’re included on our nerd rec list. You can find them listed below, but we’d also recommend checking that list for nerd Harry in general because you would probably enjoy those as well.
Okay so I realise that it’s extremely late to talk about the best song ever mv now but can we please talk about Liam as Leeroy??? Everyone freaked out over Harry as Marcel but leeroy?? I love Liam’s flamboyant side so much (and the fact that Zayn as Veronica happened still baffles me)
haha yeah liam as leeroy is another thing that too often goes so under-appreciated, and honestly we got so many great things out of that video that i will never, ever be over, but i’m just so glad we got to see it at all and that they got to do it
niall's shimmy when he sings "can I take you home with me" in the best song ever mv 🥺💗
omfg yes it’s literally the cutest! he’s just so adorable 🥺honestly that entire video was so iconic - sexy assistant zayn? marcel?? LIAM YOU STAY EXACTLY WHERE YOU ARE BECAUSE YOU ARE PER-FECT??
Hi, can you tell me the origin of the Styles Triplet? I know that Marcel is inspired from the Best Song Ever MV and Harry is Harry I guess. But what is the inspiration for Edward? Why is he usually portrayed as the eldest of the three? Thanks in advance
That’s actually a very good question that I can’t answer because I don’t read Triplet fics (or Twins). In my mind Marcel is the nerd/geek, Harry is sweet/dork Harry, and Edward is the mysterious/hot/dom one, but I can be wrong !
