PSA:

1. Authors, if you have not completed the mandatory check-in, please check your preferred method of contact and complete it within the next 72 hours (by 9/27 at 11 pm EST) or your prompt will be returned to the prompt list, as you will have been deemed inactive. I don’t want to be mean, but I waited for over two weeks for responses to come in. So please reply!

2. Posted below this is the list of betas / britpickers / cheerleaders. A few people mentioned needing it in their check-in, so I have shared it once again and updated the list! Please, please, please be sure to contact your choice of beta / britpicker / cheerleader ASAP. The sooner that you contact them, the better! The worst thing is to rush someone to finish up your story on a tight timeframe. Please be respectful, as they are willfully volunteering their time.

3. I am so sorry for the inactivity of the blog over the last few weeks! Honestly, school has kicked my ass thoroughly, the hurricane frazzled me completely, and my mental health really needed to come first. Thank you to everyone who has reached out and asked how you could help! I do have some ideas, so I will be reaching out to a few of you soon. 

4. One thing I am passionate about is making this fest more than just a fest. So, starting in October, we will be doing author spotlights and Q&A’s, reblogging your snippets, and generally doing everything we can to make y’all feel welcome in the writing community! I am super excited about this, so keep your eyes peeled on your preferred mode of contact!

5. The schedule for posting will be finalized soon. If you have any preference for when you would like your fic published, please let me know and I will do my best to accommodate. 

Y’all are the absolute best!

Got some quality fics for you guys this week! I really enjoyed these, go check them out!

🌸 Orion’s Belt by @londonfoginacup — [fic post]

stylinshaw | 24k | mature — (soulmates)

Louis and Nick have been in a happy committed relationship for two years, their matching soulmarks on display for the world to see. It’s been them against the world, the alpha/beta singer and radio DJ power duo.

All that changes on February 1st, when they wake up to a third matching soulmark.

As they say, the course of true love never did run smooth.

🌸 in the summertime, when the weather is fine by @mybfhas27tattoos

ziam | 3k | teen and up — (pool boy liam)

This was supposed to be a relaxing summer. That’s why Zayn’s here at his parents’ house rather than at the elite internship he’d been offered in London.

But apparently this summer his parents decided to get their pool renovated and just had to hire the single most attractive person Zayn’s pansexual ass has ever laid eyes on. So now he’s not even safe within the comforts of his own room because every time he glances out the window, he sees the image of the new pool boy’s perfectly sculpted, shirtless chest.

So no. This isn’t a relaxing summer. Nothing about Zayn hopelessly drooling over a guy who’s at his house all the time being stunning and shirtless and completely unattainable while Zayn hides out in his room, too socially awkward to even so much as go outside and introduce himself, is relaxing.

🌸 Ghoulish Delights by @mybfhas27tattoos — [fic post]

larry | 7k | explicit — (established relationship)

When the Tomlinson family goes to Disneyworld for the first time, Harry’s determined not to ruin the day, which means he’ll even go on the Haunted Mansion despite how scared it makes him. When the ride faces technical difficulties, Harry’s anxiety reaches an overwhelming peak and Louis takes matters into his own hands… and mouth.

🌸 Heads you win, tails I win by @ponymom-stuff — [fic post]

larry | 0.6k | not rated — (halloween)

Louis leaves the choice for a couples Halloween costume in Harry’s hands. There are repercussions.

🌸 Entertain Me by @jacaranda-bloom — [fic post]

larry | 5k | explicit — (writer louis)

PART 5

Every Tuesday, Louis spends his day off holed up in his favorite coffee-come-bookshop, writing his little stories as part of the WordPlay challenge while daydreaming about the resident barista, Harry. Each week a new word prompt is revealed and Louis adds to his series of short stories about Henry, the owner of a B&B in the Cotswolds who has curly hair and dimples, Lewis, his long term guest who just happens to be a writer, and Tigger, Henry’s cat.

As Louis and Harry’s friendship develops, could his fantasy world spill out into real life? And how does that reader who leaves the lovely comments with the teacup emoji seem to be able to read Louis’ mind?

🌸 Like Honey to the Bee by @lululawrence — [fic post]

tomlinshaw | 2k | not rated — (fluff and humour)

the one where Nick has been trying to find a way to get past the banter stage with Louis for ages, and honey might be just what he needs to finally do so.

🌸 Rear View by @uhohmorshedios — [fic post]

zaynshaw | 12k | mature — (mechanic zayn)

Nick’s car breaks down at the start of a road trip and Zayn’s the mechanic who tows him to his small town, where it looks like he’ll be stuck for a few days.

🌸 I’m Tripping Over Your Every Single Move by @andtheywerebandmates — [fic post]

larry | 5k | teen and up — (meet-cute)

Harry is the local swimming star athlete and Louis is the lifeguard that turns Harry into a fish out of water.

🌸 Better Than Ice Cream by aggressivelyfriendly — [fic post]

gryles | 5k | teen and up — (angst)

Their love was short and sweet. The question is if you can put dropped ice cream back on the cone?

🌸 My Favourite Word by @lightwoodsmagic — [fic post]

larry | 3k | not rated — (college/uni)

Louis’ ex boyfriend won’t leave him alone, so Harry steps in.

🌸 sweet and lowdown by @humhalleloujah — [fic post]

larry | 13k | teen and up — (1920s)

Harry is about to be married for the fourth time, Louis’ never been kissed, Niall can’t cook, Liam can’t dance, and none of them are very good at acting.

🌸 one more time as if we planned it by @humhalleloujah — [fic post]

louis/alex gaskarth | 3k | general audiences — (meet cute)

Alex is a street musician, Louis hates his job, and Venmo brings them together.

🌸 I’ve spent a lifetime running (and I always get away) by Anonymous — [fic post]

larry | 5k | teen and up — (travel)

The eruption of an Icelandic volcano (the name of which Louis decidedly cannot pronounce) really shouldn’t be the catalyst for a relationship with a boy he’s only just met. Or // the one where Louis and Harry share the back of a car, a cramped bed on a dingy, highly unsafe boat, and their adoration for art (and perhaps each other).

🌸 Sing It Back by @reminiscingintherain — [fic post]

larry, ziam | 2k | teen and up — (1d reunion)

The first interview.

🌸 baby, you’re like lightning in a bottle by @hlplease — [fic post]

larry | 24k | explicit — (bartender louis)

that one fic in which harry loves attention, louis is a little guarded, and nothing (including arranged hookups, surprise munches, margaritas, vegan food, mutual (unnoticed) pining, and new career moves) can keep them apart.

🌸 Thursday by @haztobegood — [fic post]

larry | 1k | teen and up — (office)

Thursday: Louis can’t find his stapler.

Nothing less than mischief is to be expected when Niall, Liam, Zayn, Louis, and Harry spend forty hours a week in corporate hell. Welcome to One Direction Financial - The Right Direction for Your Money.

🌸 Friday by @haztobegood — [fic post]

larry | 2k | teen and up — (karaoke)

Friday: Harry joins his coworkers for a night of karaoke.

Nothing less than mischief is to be expected when Niall, Liam, Zayn, Louis, and Harry spend forty hours a week in corporate hell. Welcome to One Direction Financial - The Right Direction for Your Money.

🌸 Build me up, buttercup (don’t break my heart) by @rainbowsandlovehl — [fic post]

larry | 6k | general audiences — (miscommunication)

Harry is frustrated by the antics of the loft’s honorary fourth roommate, Louis, and would love not to be confused for once.

🌸 With Words Unspoken by Anonymous — [fic post]

larry | 18k | explicit — (older louis/harry)

At forty-nine, Louis hadn’t envisioned being at a crossroads in his life; kids, grandkids, an ex-wife, and completely at a loss as to what direction his future will take. When he finds himself drawn back to a cabin in the Californian wilderness that’d he’d visited fifteen years earlier, an acquaintance from his past triggers an awakening deep inside and reveals a new path that he could never have imagined.

OR The one where Louis is lost, Harry is an excellent tour guide, and age is no barrier to finding the love of your life.

Remember to leave kudos + comments to show your appreciation!

Last line challenge

@a-brighter-yellow just tagged me in this 😘 and as I’m waiting for my laptop to add the Wacom tablet software, I’ll copy/paste on my phone:

Louis clears his throat, shoving his hands in his pockets, and hopes he didn’t sound like he’s ever paid attention to Harry’s hair or what he smells like either before or after a shower at the gym.

🌟 Baking In December by Itstilliswhatitis

Louis can't believe it! His sisters signed him up for a competition at some bakery and they won! Now he has to spend every day of December baking something with a random dude. Except, the random dude is named Harry and he's hot! Louis realises that this Christmas might be extra special!

🎁 Be Merry All by @justanothershadeofblue {Fic post}

there is a specific sort of oppression that comes with a miserable so-cal christmas, when it’s dark and dirty and rainy or else it's too hot and too bright and everyone’s hustling, and your family is all far away and the laundry machines in your building are broken and you’ve eaten too much take-out and all you want is two seconds of quiet and maybe a morsel of holiday joy.

🕯️ Can I Fly Home by @sadaveniren {Fic post}

“Nothing? A seventy-eight year old woman just gave birth. It’s clearly supernatural stuff at work. How could you say no?” “No.” “Come on, the mystery has to be getting to you just a little.” “Granny being horny isn’t a mystery, Lou. We’re supposed to be on a break until the new year. The real mystery is why you aren’t content to just stay in one place. We’ve hunted everything imaginable to hunt.” “And yet weird shit still ends up happening, fancy that.” He saw Louis change tactics, sticking out his lower lip, pleading. “Please? Check it out with me and then maybe we’ll come back here for Christmas.” AKA Louis and Harry have been hunting together since they were teenagers and it's beginning to take a toll. Harry wants to retire. Louis plans to die hunting. Maybe a "Christmas Miracle" is just what they need. An advent fic.

🦌 Christmas Advent Calendar by enchantedlandcoffee / @alarrylittlechristmas {Fic post}

A collection of holiday drabbles written and posted leading up to Christmas. One posted per day.

🥁 Heart Beat by @allwaswell16 {Fic post}

Hideaway Haven is the place that Louis has always called home. It's also the place that Harry had tried to leave behind him. When Harry returns to start a music academy in his hometown, he finds himself face to face with his high school crush—and his charming daughter who wants to learn to play the drums.

⛄ the holiday remix - choose ur adventure advent series by warmcuppatea / @hlplease {Fic post}

“I love you so much, yeah? And we’ve talked about moving in together when my lease ends. And we’ll be spending so much time together for the holidays, and you know, we get on so smashingly-” “Louis-” Harry laughed. “Spit it out!” “-So I was thinking,” Louis laughed, rubbing his face. “Fuck, I don’t know why I’m so nervous!” He laughed. “I was thinking we should test-run living together this month.” Harry and Louis are very in love, but moving in together feels huge. So, naturally, Louis has the idea to do a holiday test-run.

🔔I'll Be Home For Christmas by lovelarry10 / @chloehl10 {Fic post}

Harry's life seems to be going well. He has a great job working at Festive Furnishings, he has an amazing three year old son called Danny, and his favourite time of the year is approaching. Just as Harry thinks everything is finally going to plan, he finds out that he is going to be losing his home just before Christmas. Louis Tomlinson is happy enough with his lot. He's the CEO of a company he started years ago, Festive Furnishings, he has great colleagues, especially his assistant Harry, and he has the best nephew in the world. But the thing is, Louis is lonely. He has a beautiful house but it's too quiet, especially at this time of year. Not that he'd admit that to anyone. While struggling to find somewhere warm and safe for himself and Danny to stay, Harry makes a decision that might just change the course of everything... and bring himself and Louis closer together as well...

🍪 I Really Like Your Styles: The Baking Advent-ure by @homosociallyyours {Fic post}

Louis isn't much for frills, and the coffee shop he co-owns with his best friend Liam is evidence of that. Yes, it's got a decent sized, well-kept industrial kitchen, but Louis insists that people come to coffee shops for coffee, not mediocre pastry and plastic wrapped cookies. When Liam's campaign for serving treats turns into watching a few baking accounts on whichever popular app he's on now, there's one that really gets on Louis' nerves: "I Like Your Styles." With his chipper demeanor and over the top descriptions of the food he makes, Louis is sure that the (unfortunately cute) baker is full of it. Nothing that adorable could possibly be worth the hype. It doesn't actually take much for him to eat his words...and some quality baked goods, while he's at it.

 🎄 kay's 25 days of smutmas by shiptattou / @wecantalktomorrow {Fic post}

Starting on December 1st, I will be posting a new smut fic everyday until Christmas! These are all one shots of varying lengths and content. As they are posted, I will add the links to this post, summaries and lengths will be included under the break! All fics will be Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson.

💌 Lonely Cards Club by @hellolovers13 {Fic post}

Harry's life in Cardiff is rather uneventful. Until he receives a strange Christmas postcard. It gets even stranger when he finds another one the next day. An Advent story about missed opportunities and second chances.

❤️ Love Actually [L.S.] by @louisthiccsexyglitteryass {Fic post}

Louis Tomlinson has just became Prime Minister of the UK. Harry Styles is a housekeeper at 10 Downing Street. Louis can't help but be enthralled with Harry. But, unfortunately, love has a funny of fucking punching you in the gut.

🎅 Neondiamond's 2023 Christmas Ficlet Party {Fic post}

If you know me at all, you’ll know that two of the things I enjoy most are writing fluffy ficlets, and Christmas. This year, I decided to combine the two and create my own little Christmas ficlet party all throughout December! 8 ficlets, 4 different pairings, many different tropes—all short, fluffy and festive! Perfect for a quick reading break with a warm drink!

☃️ Snow In Love by @lululawrence {Fic post}

Harry and Louis are best friends and have been for basically as long as they can remember. For the first time since middle school, they are both single for the holidays leaving them with the brilliant idea to take each other as their dates to work events. To make things easier they will pretend like they’re dating. But then they learn something funny. People thought they were already dating. Weird. An advent fic featuring childhood friends, fake dating turned actual dating, really horrible secret keeping, and a winter weather surprise.

🌲 'tis the damn season by YesIsAWorld / @louandhazaf {Fic post}

Harry returns to her small hometown over the holiday season and starts to think about the road not taken.

🔔 they're singing 'deck the halls' (but it's not like christmas at all) by doesanyonehearrunningwotah

Louis Tomlinson is no fan of Christmas. Between his douchebag ex-husband/co-parent, his two teenage kids, and the awful fact of his torn-apart family, the holiday season isn't looking to be all that festive. But maybe a boy's trip with his closest friends will lead him to something that'll make the season a little more bearable. Or the one where Louis' a bit of a grinch, Harry's a gorgeous present, and there's more weight to the past than either of them would like.

❄️ We Can Roll in the Darkness by LetTheMusicMoveYou / @letthemusicmoveyou28 {Fic post}

Top and Bottom Construction Co. - “We’ll get the job done, however you prefer it!” Louis looks up from the flyer, and back at Niall. “You must be joking?” Niall shakes his head, his mischievous grin only going wider. “Nope! I already researched them. They have glowing reviews AND they’re affordable. It’s perfect!” He pauses then to give Louis a cheeky wink. “Besides their website says they’re full service.” (Or the one where Louis and his best mate Niall decide to take the plunge and open a pub. The goal is to open Christmas Day, but the building renovations are proving trickier than expected. Insert: a construction company with a questionable name, a certain curly haired builder who catches Louis’ attention, and a little festive chaos along the way).

✨ You Ain’t Gotta Feel Fear Just Mingle by LadyLondonderry / @londonfoginacup {Fic post}

Harry has been at his dream job for less than three months, and he knows two things for sure; first, his project manager doesn't know what he's doing, and second, someone in the office is apparently pure evil, and no one will tell Harry who it is. Oh, and the guy who works in conservation at the other end of the building is the most beautiful man Harry's ever seen, even when wielding a hot iron as a weapon. Happy Christmas, here's to many more.

[wallstagram]

bullseye’s pretentious coffee ♡ warmcuppatea (hlplease) ♡ for @angelichl

Louis is a barista at Target Starbucks, and Harry is the annoying customer who is Louis' final straw. Pun intended.

just a little drabble for adri because i found out she pinch-hit my prompt for @hlsummerexchange2019 and didnt get a work herself? and thats so nice of her??? so the only logical thing to do was stalk her tumblr and find this post, which is how this whole thing happened. ♡ short and unbeta’d, hope it gives you a little laugh! ♡♡♡

Take The World By Storm by anon (55k) 

Maybe the X Factor wasn't the first time Louis and Harry had met. Maybe it was always meant to be, unavoidable in the universe. And maybe it happened a little bit differently than we think it did.

 Forever... and then some (28k) by anon for @ot5aresoulmates

Harry's coming off a semi-recent break-up and still hasn't gotten back to himself yet. Louis, Liam, Niall, and Zayn decide it's time to cheer Harry up by taking him on the trip they've all talked about for years.

Breathe In, Breathe Out (12k) by anon for @halosboat

Louis Tomlinson begins visiting a new pub on his lunch break, mostly because he really fancies Harry, the cute, curly-haired barman. As Louis gears up to ask him out, he doesn't realise that there is a huge stumbling block in his way: Harry is taken, and by someone rather familiar.

This is from my fic for FOUR fic fest coming up very soon 👀

“The only way you could’ve been more obvious is if I was there, with you, on stage,” Harry whispered, and Louis couldn’t pry his eyes away from the fidgeting of his fingers.

Wow that’s a doozy actually, but it’s at a good point! I tag @lululawrence @allwaswell16 @forreveries @jacaranda-bloom @hlplease @tempolarriefix and anyone else who wants to do it!

Thank you for tagging me @conversationsofyou <3 This snippet is from the Dark AU for the @hltvshowficfest I’ve been working on lately! (There is time travel in this, just in case you’re confused!)

Freddie Is Dead the headline in front of Harry said. He blinked, then read it again. Aids Kills The King of Rock was the one next to it. There was a lump in his throat suddenly, tears gathering behind his eyelids without his permission. He quickly turned around towards the drinks, grabbed a can of coke, and went to pay. The shop owner eyed him with a look of suspicion, probably afraid Harry was going to puke any second now. He couldn't blame him.

As he stumbled out of the shop towards his school, he tried to make sense of the mess of thoughts in his head. He had known, of course, of Freddie Mercury, his dad had loved to listen to old Queen songs. He had also known that Freddie had been long dead, but it had never been a particular source of grief for him. Most of the music his dad had listened to was made by people who were long dead. Gemma loved to make fun of him for it.

Now, though, that people seemed to be dying of Aids every other day, especially gay men, now it was suddenly something close and personal, something that sent a cold feeling of dread down Harry's spine when he thought about the increasing number of times he had thought about kissing Louis lately. Louis, who still had no idea about any of this, who should probably be kept far away from Harry, to not get tangled up in a confusing mess of time-travel and hard-to-describe gay feelings that Harry was carrying around like an extra weight on his chest lately.
