#69th Miss Universe

[kao-tika]

hi again! ✨ here’s another fic rec, this time about fics that are based off movies or books let me know what you think 🎞️📚🩷

☆ Who Painted the Moon Black by throughthedark

“People died,” Harry whispers so quietly Louis strains to hear. “People died, and I killed some of them. How does life just go on after something like that?”

Louis shakes his head. “I don't know. It just does.”

Hunger Games AU where Louis Tomlinson is district six's victor from the 69th Hunger Games and Harry Styles is district seven's victor from the 72nd Hunger Games.

notes: this is one of my favorite fics of all time, you don’t have to be a big HG fan to enjoy this story ( but if you are i think it’s very accurate to the saga) so beautifully written and so gut wrenching in equal parts, amazing ending, cannot recommend it enough <3

☆ Take My Breath Away by RealityBetterThanFiction

There is a prestigious school in the British Royal Navy classified as Premier Delta - or as it is known by its flyers, 1D. These select pilots are an elite set of Naval lieutenants who are trained in the skill of aggressive aerial combat. They are instruments of war, trained in times of peace. They are dogfighters, relentless and fearless in their mission to protect their beloved country. From their lofty vantage, they are always watching, waiting, and ready to lay it all on the line.

Lt. Harry Styles, call sign Sparrow, is a prodigy when it comes to flying. The owner of an unrivaled Naval pedigree, being a pilot was always written in the stars for Harry. With his trusty RIO, Lt. Niall Horan, Harry has made an unprecedented ascension in the ranks of the Naval aerial combat elite, and has been recruited to the esteemed Premier Delta flight school, carrying on his family’s legacy. What he finds there are unexpected friendships, perilous challenges, and something beyond what he ever thought possible. Because as his father had always told him, before the great Captain Styles went tragically missing in combat, you don’t fall in love with the sky, you fall in love with what keeps you on the ground.

notes: checking the fic again for this rec I can’t find if it said it explicitly BUT this one gives mayor top gun vibes throughout the whole story, a really fun and cute fic

☆ The Afterlife Fic (The Best I Ever Had in My Entire Life... Or Death) by LovingCup

AU- After dying in an accident, Louis Tomlinson arrives in the Afterlife. Not Heaven and not Hell, Louis finds himself in Judgment City UK: a pristine city where the food and entertainment are divine and the newly departed must undergo a Review of their life on Earth to determine if they have lived a life worthy of advancement in the universe, or if they must be returned to Earth to be born again in a new body.

On his first full day in the Afterlife, Louis meets Harry Styles, and the two have an instant connection. Over the course of their Reviews, they fall in love and begin to find that even though they didn't know each other on Earth, they are nonetheless linked to one another in perfect ways. Both are hoping to move ahead in the universe together, but they are challenged with the threat of separation if one or both of them is sent back to Earth to be born again.

Loosely based on the Albert Brooks' film "Defending Your Life" starring Brooks and Meryl Streep. One scene in particular is drawn from the movie, but other than that scene and the general concept, this story veers far away from the film. There were no blowies in the 1991 movie, I swear!

notes: another one of my favorites! for what I remember, a long read, but so worth it. This story touches on topics of grief, loss, love, life and fears through the life of Louis and Harry and how they navigate their relationship in the afterlife (ends good).

☆ You Fill My Lungs With Sweetness (Can I Be Close to You?) by sideofzemblanity

Busy picturing Harry’s stupid face on the stupid dummy, Louis goes through a series of kicks before returning to a low guard and cycling through punches. Harry’s still talking, gesturing with his hands as he rounds Louis, standing to his back. “You do a few butt-shaping exercises, tighten this up a little bit,” he smacks Louis’ arse and the omega freezes while Harry cheerfully continues, “you could pull this off.”

“You know what?” Louis snaps, lifting on his tiptoes to get the leverage so he can wrap his arm around the alpha’s neck, forcing him to bend in half while Louis locks him in a chokehold. “Pull this off,” he snarls. They stagger over a few steps, Louis gritting his teeth as Harry tries to break free. “Is it because Payne hates me?” he complains, voice edging on an annoyed whine, “Or is it, like, an omega thing?”

Too late, Louis realizes that Harry has got a grip on his leg and this time as he pulls against Louis’ hold, it loosens, the alpha lifting him in the air before slamming his back into the mat, breaking Louis’ grip completely. Harry kneels on the mat, hovering over him with a sneer, “Don’t kid yourself. Nobody thinks of you that way.”

aka the Miss Congeniality ABO AU nobody asked for

notes: SOOO funny, has a little bit of angst, friends to lovers, a short read so you don’t have excuses;)

☆ Come My Love Again by softfonds

Harry Styles is handsome, clever, and rich. At least that’s what his friends say of him. He also thinks of himself as a matchmaker in Highbury, pairing people together when he finds the time. But when the arrival of a certain gentleman flips Harry’s world on its head, he starts to question everything that was once all too familiar to him, including his relationship with his good friend, Mr. Tomlinson. An Emma AU.

notes: I really enjoyed the little bit of angst on this fic, i think it’s omegaverse if i don’t remember it wrong?. enjoy of Louis being a classic gentlemen

☆ In The Still Of The Night by jacaranda_bloom

In a society where omegas are expected to follow a predetermined path, Louis strives for more; for his voice to be heard, for recognition, for true love.

In a world where your past defines your future, Harry fights against the system; for equality, for a different life, for acceptance.

When their two worlds collide, will they be beaten down by conformity or will they rise up and forge a new path together?

OR the Dirty Dancing AU where Louis is a feisty omega who wants to change the world, Harry is an alpha from the wrong side of the tracks, and nobody puts Louis in a corner.

notes: the fic that I didn’t know I need, is dirty dancing with larry do I really need to say more?

☆ in a world alone by falsegoodnight

Harry’s breath catches as the glow grows bigger and bigger until he’s squinting his eyes and blinking at the sudden intense brightness. He closes his eyes, rubbing at them helplessly. When his eyes open again- he gasps, grip loosening on his bow as he gawks at the sight before him.

Because the swan is gone.

And in its place is the prettiest omega Harry has ever seen.

A Swan Lake AU

notes: a really cute one shot, fairy tale vibes ;)

☆ hold on to your heart by falsegoodnight

“Come here for a second.”

Harry’s brows furrow, glancing aside like he thinks Louis may be talking to someone else. Louis jerks his head beside him, impatient, and the alpha steps into the room cautiously.

Louis turns back to Royce and Hunt who are staring at him in confusion. He pastes a pleasant smile onto his face, clasping his hands together. “Gentlemen, I understand. I understand the predicament that we are in…” He clears his throat. “But there is something you should know.”

“What is this, Louis?” Royce asks, exchanging a look with Hunt.

Taking a few steps backward until he is beside a very bewildered looking Harry, Louis takes a deep breath. “We are, uh –” He reaches out and touches Harry’s arm. You cannot actually be doing this, he thinks. But then he does. “We are getting married.”

The Proposal AU, where Louis is the no-nonsense editor in chief of one of the largest publishing houses in the country, and Harry is the unlucky assistant that gets roped into a fake engagement to prevent his boss from being deported. Things don't go as planned.

notes: really funny and cute I enjoyed reading it sm!!

☆ through chaos as it swirls, it’s us against the world by sweetfairydreams

corporal styles is sent on a suicidal mission, at his hands the lives of hundreds of men that are going straight into a trap. he ends up finding louis, the french and most beautiful boy he ever seen, and a baby, in a basement of a dead city.

based on the movie 1917

notes: a cute and wholesome story <3

Seamus Power is on the rise

Professional

Seamus Power is an Irish professional golfer from Waterford, Ireland. Power attended East Tennessee, State University while living in America. Power turned professional in 2011 but found it hard to maintain his card on PGA Tour for many years. Power changed everything as he won his first PGA Tour tournament at the Barbasol Championship in 2021. Power won on his 106th start and confirmed his card for 2021/2022 & 2022/2023 PGA Tour season.

Events

Having a tour card on the PGA Tour is massive as you can select what tournaments that you want to play in each month. Power jumped to 113th in world rankings after his breakthrough win and 69th in FedEx Cup rankings. Power qualified to play in 2022 Sentry Tournament of Champions after winning in 2021. He started 2022 in good form after finishing tied 15th at Sentry Tournament of Champions. He continued his great start to 2022 with a tied 3rd finish at Sony Open and a tied 14th finish at American Express Open.

Pebble Beach

Power’s next start was at 2022 AT& T Pebble Beach Pro-Am which is played over three golf courses. Power got off to a fantastic start at this tournament as he led at the halfway stage of 2022 AT & T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Power struggled over the weekend but still finished in the top ten on 9th position. Power was 42nd in the world rankings after Pebble Beach but needed to stay inside the top 50 to qualify for Augusta. Power confirmed his place at 2022 US Masters after making it to the last 16 of WGC Dell Technologies Matchplay.

Summer

He held his own at Augusta as Power made it to the weekend. To get four rounds under your belt is a fantastic experience at Augusta as Power finished tied 27th on four over. Southern Hills was the venue for 2022 PGA Championship. Southern Hills was a tough venue with Justin Thomas winning 2022 PGA Championship on five under with Power putting in a fantastic finish in tied 9th. Another week were Power raised his profile as a golfer on one of the toughest courses in America.

Irish Open

Power followed up his good finish at Southern Hills with a tied 12th finish at Brookline in 2022 U.S. Open. Mount Juliet was the venue for 2022 Irish Open and Power made his well deserved return to Ireland. He gave the crowds plenty of highlights at Mount Juliet as Power shot three rounds of four under par. Power got a fantastic draw for the first two rounds of 150th The Open playing alongside four-time major winner Brooks Koepka and 2022 The Players winner Cameron Smith. He had a bit of bad luck as Power missed the halfway cut at St Andrews.

2022/2023

It’s important to start the season well with events counting for FedEx Cup in both 2022 and 2023. Power went into the Butterfield Bermuda Championship as the highest ranked player in the field on 48th. Power shot three consecutive rounds of 65 to be tied for the lead going into the final round. The final round conditions were difficult due to a strong breeze and Power went into the lead after a birdie on 14th hole. Power played the final four holes in one under to seal his second victory on PGA Tour.

Ranking

Power jumped to 32 in the world rankings after winning Bermuda Championship. With less than a year to go Power has to be in the conversation for the Ryder Cup next year. Playing well on difficult courses is not easy and this is why Power has to be in the mix for Luke Donald in Rome.

The Miss world only exists because you keep this flame burning with the affection and dedication you have with us. Need to say I'm sorry for the public mostly. And it's looking at everything lived so far, which makes me sad that I can't close this cycle as the protocol and tradition of Miss Brazil says: with a worthy parade, a farewell speech and crowning my successor. And even if we shared distinctive opinions and even conflicting values, I believe that together, me and the Organization of Miss Universe Brazil held an amazing work together that earned us the title of Vice Miss Universe. I dedicated all of myself to the title of Miss Universe Brazil to represent the Miss Universe Brazil Organization for the world, each of you and Brazil in the best way I could do. I can't say I'm indifferent to this situation because I'm not. How they didn't explain why such a decision remains for me to respect their decision even without understanding it. This was the decision of the Organization of Miss Universe Brazil, which after formally invited me to attend the event, a few days ago sent me a new email dismissing my presence. The Julia Gama Dismissing MY Presence Statement Verbatim: Dear Missamores, it is with sadness that today I come to officially announce that I will not be present in the final of Miss Universe Brazil 2021.
