The blink, though. It’s the saddest little…I don’t even know what. Almost “Please don’t go” look. Like a little child makes when the person they feel safest with starts to walk away. I swear to god, if they didn’t want us to read this relationship as queer, why on earth all this romance coding behavior?
That is the most vulnerable, needy, ‘but I want him to stay’ romance look as anything I’ve ever seen. With the soft blink and the slight lean forward as if he can stretch out a hand and stop Harry. Not even understanding fully why he wants to stop him. All he knows is he feels safe and that’s more than a little rare and he wants more.
