New Rec Submission Category: Play AUs!

By popular demand, the Based On Bonanza continues! Y'all voted for more, so Play AUs is a go! Until the list posts on Friday, August 1st, you can submit HERE your fave AUs based on Broadway musicals, Shakespearean comedies (or tragedies if you're a glutton for angst)(or histories if you're a NERD)(as a self-identified nerd I say that with the utmost love), or based on any other theatrical play you know! To be clear, this category is for AUs based on the story of the play, NOT for AUs where the characters are acting in a play -- unless the plot of the fic also follows the plot of that play or a different play; we welcome plays-within-plays!

Now I'm thinking about doing actor AUs soon because oh man am I a sucker for those how have I not done that category yet

I'm gonna be honest with y'all, I'm still on the fence about video game AUs -- y'all voted for it, but I'm just worried that there may not be enough meat for a very full fic rec. I think there is definitely potential for those stories, but I don't know of very many offhand. We shall see (and feel free to yell at me if there are video game AUs you're dying to rec, or if you just want the rule of democracy)(but please yell nicely I'm fragile).

If Louis had to make a list of all his problems, his mum trying to set him up with every gay man ever would be very close to the top.

What happens when Harry volunteers to be his fake boyfriend just to get her to stop?

Or the five times Louis and Harry pretend to be in love and the one time they realise they actually are.

A day to remember, Larry reunion [14.07.24].

[galacticlarry]

Heyyyyyy any chance you can rec some fics based on the 1D song “change your ticket”? I was listening to it and it made me curious if you knew any fics that fit that vibe.

Thank you!!! Love all the work you do ❤️

Hi, anon! You're very welcome! And thank you for the kind words! <3 Here are some fics that fit what you're looking for!

Take That Bag Off Your Shoulder by @eyesofshinigami

Harry lets out a sigh. No matter how many times this happens, how many times they have to do this, it still doesn't make it any easier. “Come get back in bed, Lou. Come cuddle, yeah?” he tries. He opens his arms and smiles broadly, even wiggling his eyebrows a bit.

He gets a soft laugh for his efforts, but Louis stays where he is. He starts pulling clothes on, much to Harry's dismay. “If I do that, I'll never leave,” he says, voice breaking a little.

“That's the whole point.” Harry gets up from the bed and pads over to him. The cold air raises goosebumps on his skin and he fights the urge to shiver. “I want you to stay here with me. A couple of more days can't hurt, right?” He wraps his arms around Louis and pulls him in tight, like if he tries hard enough their bodies will fuse together and Louis can't leave. “No one has to know.”

He feels Louis melt against him, but it doesn't feel like surrender. “I want to, Haz, but... you know I can't.” It's always can't, never won't, even though that doesn't make Harry feel any better.

Or the one where Louis has to leave and Harry begs him to stay for a couple more days.

Hold You Now by solvetheminourdreams

The string within Harry's own sweatpants is now dangling outside of his pocket, stretched so far out that the seams of his pants have tightened. His eyes remain hyper focused on Louis, how oblivious he is—scrolling through his phone without a care in the world, while Harry feels his tilt on its axis.   Three years ago, Harry Styles said goodbye to communications consultancy firm McQuiston Worldwide, leaving a life of travel and agency PR behind. When he accompanies his best friend to a family wedding across the Atlantic, he'll be forced to reopen old wounds and face his past—one that no one wants to hash out, but may just have to.

Enough To Wish For More by galactic_larry / @galacticlarry

Louis Tomlinson just wants a few days of peace and quiet while his family are out of state. But when he meets the lead singer of a band he’s never heard of, his life and everything he thought he knew about it changes forever.

Harry Styles just wants to get his new guitar and then he’s leaving Haverhill, Massachusetts as fast as he can. But when he gets lost and asks someone for directions, he finds a lot more than the street he was initially looking for.

A long, complicated, painful, fucked up story about love.

Play (series) by @taggiecb

Louis loves working towards a goal. His friends say having a goal in life is the only thing that keeps him sane some days. Right now he is working towards his before twenty five bucket list, and fate must have been smiling on him the day he won tickets for a show at Wembly, getting into one of the locker rooms is something he will have to think about later. Plus it doesn't hurt that the show he's seeing is his favourite celebrity crush Harry Styles.

My Ribs get the Feeling (you did) by @ltwritten

For the @5times1dfest

Untucking his head, he looks at his window and tries to make it more meaningful. The waiting. It could be special, possibly even romantic... like Wendy at the window.

OR

Five times he waits for Louis and the one time he doesn’t.

[galacticlarry]

I hate it when you’re reading smut and you can’t figure out what position they’re in.
