; a very interesting thread
; a very interesting thread
first, let’s start with a common one, they did this to each other constantly, the famous “thumbs up” sign. the meaning can vary from “lover” to “i love you”, “make love” or “sweetheart”.
louis signs to harry patting his chest twice, this means “mine”.. very possessive innit louis? also, catch harry’s little thumbs up in return

here, louis uses alphabet sign language for the letter “H”. i’m not sure which interview this is but maybe the interviewer asked a question and louis wanted to answer with something he couldn’t say out loud, hence the “H” while looking at harry
louis crosses his fingers, which in sign language means “hope” “forever” “good luck” and “protection”
louis is a little jealous and just wants harry’s attention so he just kind of:
okay, in this one you need to look at zayn. he uses sign language to say “stop it”, he’s doing it for louis who was on the other side of the screen drooling over harry on his undies and nothing more haha https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😌" title="Relieved face" aria-label="Emoji: Relieved face">
and this is how louis looked when zayn signed to him. ngl, i would’ve done the same, louis is soooooo obvious lmao i love him

harry missed a note on his solo and looked sad so louis used sign language to tell him “hazza”, “not a big deal” “sad one”. he’s so fucking caring for his baby https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥺" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face">

in this one harry does with his hands the sign for “talking” implying that they need to talk after the show is over. also, he points upward with his index and touches his lips, which means “and kiss”
harry does a little shy thumbs up near liam’s shoulder, look at his smug smile.. and then louis notices and returns a thumbs up. they love each other you can’t tell me otherwise. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Loudly crying face" aria-label="Emoji: Loudly crying face">
this one reminds me of harry’s pet name he has for louis, “i love you too, sweetcheeks” https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥺" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face"> pls
finally, i’d like to point out this was a regular behavior. they did it really often to communicate without getting caught. however, sadly, they had to tone down their sign interaction as soon as fans starting catching them and looking for their meanings
from 2010 to 2012 they used them almost everyday and everywhere. from 2013 onwards their public interactions were forced down by management and their sign language wasn’t as noticeable, however i think it’s something very important for both of them, even now.
also, louis was asked on a 2017 (if i remember right) interview if he knew any sign language, he said no, which is a lie because you just saw the thread and yes i’m certain he knows sign language.. he’s just not allowed to say https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="☹️" title="Frowning face" aria-label="Emoji: Frowning face">
