OH MY GOD THIS IS SO GREAT. I can't really pull together a coherent comment because I loved this so, so, so, so much and it was so long and so wonderful and so in character. Um, okay. This is basically just going to be a list of everything I loved about it:

Niall tries to toe his shoes on while holding a slice of pizza in each hand
The little details like that (Niall eating all the time, NOT LIKING FETA, LOOKING TO LOUIS TO CONFIRM THAT, Louis having to hide from Niall after he eats, Niall ordering chips because Harry will eat them, etc.) are so perfect. Like, it was just a wonderful way to get a full idea of them individually without it being so overt.

he has to jump out of the way as Louis tries to whip Harry in the back of the legs with his braces.
AND THIS AS WELL. I am dying because this is literally so flawless. It's just. These little moments that you put in there are killing me.

And when Liam asked Zayn if he and Louis were dating. My heart! Liam's confusion and his uncertainty with everyone. The way that Louis insisted on being his loud, goofy self, to keep everything normal and hopefully jog Liam's memory. Harry! I don't even know what to say about him. It was just perfect: the way he helped Liam with the fan and he seemed like he was being almost gentle with him. And you have their banter down so well! The dialogue was wonderful and the way they acted with each other was so easy and affectionate and exactly what I would imagine. And then Zayn reassuring Liam of his place in the band, OF HIS IMPORTANCE, and Liam wanting to kiss Zayn but not knowing if he could. What I love about amnesia fic is that it takes the uncertainty of liking someone and amplifies it by about a million. It's just so great and awkward and sweet.

LIAM THINKING ABOUT QUITTING. God, feelings. Niall being reassuring as well BUT ALSO WEIRDLY PERCEPTIVE.

“Nothing,” Liam shouts, because really, he’s got nothing to say. “It’s just-settling for most of the time is harder than I thought.” OH MY GOD was basically my reaction this. BECAUSE LIAM. AND ALSO ZAYN.

The whole scene in the van! Niall being honestly shocked that Liam had kissed Zayn while still not remembering anything AND without consulting anyone first. Harry apparently caring only about his phone until Liam says something he doesn't expect.

Just. Everything. There was such a naturalness about this that made me love it so much. Everyone seemed as they should be and it was so honestly fantastic.

I'm so sorry this is so incoherent. I just have a lot of emotions about this because it was actually so perfect. I am preemptively embarrassed about this comment, but I honestly can't do anything to make it more thoughtful or articulate because this story just turned me into a bundle of feelings.
