“Louis,” Harry implored, reaching across the confined space and gently grasping his chin to turn his face in his direction. “Your feet must be so sore from all of the running you are doing.” And that, well. That wasn’t fair at all, and Louis immediately felt his blood pressure rise again once more. “I’m running?” His eyebrows were almost touching his hairline but he could hardly control it. “I’m running?” His voice was growing louder and louder in the lift as he straightened his back up tall again. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me, right?” He pushed Harry’s hand away off his chin and he sat down and pulled his legs up to his chest. “Harry, we had planned our whole lives together, our futures. And that was shattered in an instant. I wasn’t the one who was running! I was waiting- I waited! I waited for a fucking long time. I waited for answers, for you to come back, for the other shoe to fucking drop,” he ran his hands through his hair, exasperated that he had broken his angry facade. Tears, hot and painful prickled behind his eyes. “I waited for the person who had called himself my soulmate to remember what we had and come back. So no, no my feet are not sore.” He scoffed, and struggled to stand.

KWGJ Says: It's been a while! I was ridiculously busy being a mum to my children over the summer holidays and have negelected my fandom love, but I am here today and back shamelessly spruiking on of my own. I was hesitant to share my own work on this page to begin with, and then realised it's my page, and I can do what I bloody well want!

A labour of love, this tale had been on my mind and never giving me release until I finally sat down to write it. The idea first sparked when I heard the song 'Face in the Crowd' by Freya Ridings. (Did you know her Dad is the voice of Daddy Pig?!) And then I of course waited until I was ridiculously busy before attempting to write it. I'm quite proud of it!

Of course, the scene I chose above to give a little gimpse into the story was inspired by the classic meme of the boys fighting.

Can you just picture it? Always makes me giggle! Anyway, I hope you read and enjoy this tale of two idiots in love. Check out Face in the Crowd by Kiwiwatermelongrapejuice here

Or, browse through my KWGJ Fic Rec Masterlist here. I am about to update it with my latest read fics- I can see it's been two and a half months without an update and that just won't do! If there is something in particular you are looking for, or would like your fic shared, let me know!

Vintage Beauty

Featuring Glam Affair She was beautiful, but not like those girls in the magazines. She was beautiful, for the way she thought. She was beautiful, for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved. She was beautiful, for her ability to make other people smile, even if she was sad. No, she wasn’t beautiful for something as temporary as her looks. She was beautiful, deep down…

Dance Ennui

Dance Isn’t My Happy Place Right Now Another Thursday has passed without me on a dance floor. I didn’t feel like putting forth the effort to get cleaned up and drive 15-20 minutes to the venue. It makes me ponder my renewed unwillingness to dance, and I realized it’s not the dancing, but the community which once was Borderline. I seem to have no problem driving to Ventura or Oxnard for dances…

Prompt:

It’s not that Jason forgot, per se.

But between smuggling a toddler out of the League of Assassins, trekking halfway across the world, and finding a suitable hiding place that’s also child friendly… well, it kind of slipped his mind that he’s supposed to be… dead.

Something that comes back to bite him in the ass when he takes Dami out for some ice cream and just so happens to run into non other than Brucie-fucking-Wayne

there are a lot of truly insane layered pieces of dialogue in 811 Holy Mother of God but personally I think more people should be forced to acknowledge and decipher “I should apologize. He was probably right. I was using him as a distraction so I didn’t have to feel alone.”

Shucks, I can take chicken fertilizer and sell it to them for caviar. I can make them eat dog food, and they'll think it's steak. Sure, I got 'em like this. You know what the public's like? A cage full of guinea pigs. Good night, you stupid idiots. Good night, you miserable slobs. They're a lot of trained seals. I toss 'em a dead fish, and they'll flap their flippers. A FACE IN THE CROWD (1957) — Dir. Elia Kazan
