It’s the year 2013, and One Direction is

taking over the world…

ATLAS NORTH

Atlas North is a miracle. On November 30th 1994, he was found on the doorstep of a grieving married couple of scientists in Manchester with a note: “Take care of my baby boy. He’s half Indonesian, but I couldn’t bring him back to his home country. He was just born this morning”, like it was straight out of a fairytale movie. And the fans? The fans love this backstory.

Atlas grew up being total opposites from the Norths. He had never been into academics (even though he was known as a straight A student all his life), and his passions were always based on musical theatres.

On a random day in 2010, he applied himself to the X Factor UK. He got in. Known for his ‘fairytale-like backstory’ and his excellent stage presence, it was not long before he got into One Direction, and his career just flew off the charts since then. 

Fast forward. It’s 2013 now. The  boys had released their second album last year. The Take Me Home Tour is starting… and its opening act was just announced: 5 Seconds of Summer.

TOBIAS CANE

Tobias Cane never expected this to happen. Growing up, he loved forming bands with his best friend, Ashton Irwin, in New South Wales, Australia. He was starting to miss being in a band not long after he graduated, when him and Ashton got invited to join a brand new band in 2011.

5 Seconds of Summer is fun. He took this band as just a side gig at first. They performed their debut show at Sydney’s Annandale Hotel in 2011, released their first EP, Unplugged, in 2012, then unexpectedly Louis Tomlinson tweeted a link to their video, making them blow up overnight.

Tobias is a die hard fan of One Direction. Well. More like, a die hard fan of a certain member… Atlas North, to be exact. So when Louis tweeted that? Tobias’ world exploded. It exploded again when One Direction’s team reached out for 5 Seconds of Summer to open for their Take Me Home Tour in 2013.

Everything is going right. Okay. It’s not like Tobias’ digital footprint is full of him gushing about Atlas North or anything. Everything is fine. The Take Me Home Tour will be fine. Right?

this is like the larry stylinson ship but 10x times worse for the conspiracists bcs we act like boyfriends in public but would always deny our relationship for years and years (plus the insane amount of PR relationships… erm). homophobia, misogyny, racism, abusive managements, and any self-inflicted scandals by the boys in this reality are COMPLETELY scripted out.

AND! Tobias Cane has the same awareness as Damien Lawrence, Ronan Mortimer, and Vivienne Rapp <3 my s/o is a reality shifter!

Y'all the fcs for Tobias and I are REALLY niche (they’re newcomers in the entertainment industry) so dm me if you want to know them!! I don’t want them to stumble upon this post through the search engine LOL

A One Direction DR is brewing…

manifesting more multigender & multisexuality shifters in our community bcs seeing ppl from greedy city brings me sm joy (it’s me i’m the mayor of greedy city)

“How does your s/o shift for you?”

Hiyaa Rin! To be honest, my s/o shifting for me is a sensitive topic to me, because I’m really scared that I would get judged for it or be called delusional. But as you may know, realities are limitless, we are infinite, and anything is possible. Your question made me think clearly of my future in this reality, and I thank you for that.

Just to start, this is what I think about reality shifting:

1.) We’re just remembering things when we script our desired realities. The realities we desired had been there before we even desire it.

2.) There is no such thing as our ‘original reality’ in a literal sense. We died before. We exist before this life. However, I do refer the reality where we discover reality shifting again as our 'original reality’ or 'home reality’.

So. This is my original reality. This is where my awareness learned about reality shifting. My s/o? He came from a reality where people are just as ordinary yet more spiritual. His name is Damien Lawrence, from my Academia DR. He dicovered about reality shifting through a secret club during his studies in Oxford University. Fast forward -> he is a young professor now (current timeline when I shift), and he’s dating one of the Dphil astrophysicist student, aka me, Clyde Harlow.

We’ve been dating for three months now. I’m starting my thesis about the multiverse theory, which him and I bond over, and we’re also doing a private research about reality shifting together. In that DR, abrahamic religions doesn’t exist. You’re either pagan, a spiritualist, or an atheist. Reality shifting, although it’s community is very hidden and protected, are more accepted as a practice unlike here.

Damien thinks shifting is too good to be true, but he’s not totally opposed with the idea; he felt some familiarity with it. He said he shifted realities when he was younger to a reality where he was a young vampire falling in love with his own best friend, another where he was a 'she’ music producer during the 2010s, and also another where he works with magical animals instead of studying the universe like he is right now, and so much more. The realities mentioned are all of my DRs.

You see, when we think of our DRs, time is not linear. We would receive memories of them often, some from the past, present (the time as soon as we shifted) and the future.

In one of these memories, I find myself building the courage to tell him that I shifted to him. To my Academia DR. He was surprised at first. Then his eyes got teary. “Where are you from?” he asked. Then I told him that I came from a reality where I was a really sad south east asian girl trying to escape her own life through reality shifting and manifestations. Her life did get better; but romantic love was barely on the table when you’re a raging feminist in a patriarchal reality.

He was fascinated, but sad, because all of my realities, including my life with him, are fulfilling, except this one in particular. Then he said that it’s his turn. He’ll shift for me. He’ll find me. “You can’t be Damien anymore. Life is very… different there,” I said carefully. “You have to have certain looks, certain religion, certain career and stability. You have to appease my parents. And you have to be a man, because even though I am a queer woman there, queerness cannot be in my life if I don’t want to lose my loved ones. Like I said before. I am a sad girl there, and life might be hard.”

Then he said he’ll do it.

And I know he’s here. Somewhere. It’s not my time for me to see him yet. 

In a way, I find it egoistical for me to also have him here. To already think of him as my husband here. Deep down I want to show my parents that a man is capable of loving me (btw idgaf if no man loves me, I actually prefer girls in this reality). I have always found myself lovable, and I am abundant of love, and I am love. But my parents never perceived me that way. I don’t fit their beauty standard, and they think that my feminist values will leave me lonely. Believe me, their concern came from a good place. I guess I just want to show them that… I’m not alone. Someone loves me. Y'all can relax now.

Then my husband and I will shift the fuck away from here after that part of my life in this reality. See how I called him my husband again? SIGH. I’m gonna go play that song by Raye now.

Special mention: Mason (@masoncantthinkofaname). If I never stumbled across his story with his husband Dareon (I hope I spelled his name right) I don’t think I’d ever know that for my s/o to shift for me is possible. In this case, I guess I am my s/o’s Dareon because I shift to find him… and now he’s shifting with me.

Anyways I’m SO SORRY for the long answer. This is a problem of mine. I can’t get straight to the point when it comes to tumblr asks. I hope I answered your question clearly. @aeinthe-void
