✤ Girl Direction ✤

A series of posts with the top five fics of each category by kudos plus five more hidden gems from that category! Remember to leave kudos and a comment on the fics you enjoyed to show your appreciation! You can find our other recs here.

- Top 5 H/L Fics -

1️⃣ Who Run the World? (Girls!) by dolce_piccante {M, 11k}

A femslash take on the beginning of Relief Next To Me, complete with girl!Direction, lots of tongue action, and lots of hints to the original work.

2️⃣ Tell Me This Is Paradise by QuickedWeen / @becomeawendybird {E, 19k}

Harry Styles has been lucky in love but unlucky in the bedroom with all of her previous boyfriends. When her best friend Niall finds out that she's never had an orgasm, she knows just what Harry needs: Louis Tomlinson. Niall sets Harry up to get sorted out.

3️⃣ that good girl faith (and a tight little skirt) by ariadne_odair {E, 43k}

“What the fuck did you do to my shampoo?” Harry shouts, brandishing the offending bottle like it’s a vial of poison. “Is this fucking mud? Did you honestly replace my shampoo with mud?” “Not just your shampoo,” Louis says calmly, then cracks up when Harry visibly pales.  

Harry and Louis are camp counsellors. They hate each other. The amount of sex they have in the camp showers probably contradicts that.

4️⃣ I love your demons (like devils can) by ariadne_odair {E, 60k}

"I am right here," she says loudly, and she can almost hear the crack when Louis' head whips around to stare at her.

"Why?" Louis asks, and Harry feels her insides shrivel up and die.

Harry didn’t plan to join the football team. She didn’t plan to sleep with the captain of the football team. She definitely didn’t plan to sleep with the closeted captain of the football team, who promptly acted as if nothing happened and left Harry a pathetic, pining mess.

5️⃣ the wheel breaks the butterfly by embodied / @crossnecklace {E, 4k}

“Out with it, Styles,” Louis groans. Harry’s suddenly regretting this whole thing, and she’s sure she’s beet red now, so she just blurts it out so fast she’s not sure if Louis even understands her right away.   “I’ve never gotten head before.”

AU. harry and louis are roommates. girls' night ends a little differently than usual.

HIDDEN GEMS:

💎 You Make Lovin' Fun by @homosociallyyours {E, 109k}

Harry is a 28 year old travel writer at a gay magazine who gets the assignment to go a lesbian cruise. She figures it's a nice chance to have some fun in the sun, but she's not expecting much else-- even if her partner and best friend are both encouraging her to hook up with someone while she's there.

When she locks eyes with a gorgeous silver fox from across the room, she starts to think she could've been wrong. There are lots of things standing in the way of anything real happening with her and Louis, but that doesn't stop them from falling for one another. True love isn't always easy, but they do make lovin' fun.

💎 That Smile and That Midnight Laugh by yeah_alright / @uhoh-but-yeah-alright {T, 50k}

Harry’s never noticed how lovely Louis really is. Maybe it’s just that she’s usually so guarded – a little tense, a little irritated, a little put out. At least when she’s at school, and also usually when she’s around Nick, which are the only times Harry has really seen her. Until tonight. Tonight Harry’s seen her with her guard completely down. Too busy laughing and enjoying herself to remember to be prickly, maybe. She seems different.

It feels different.

A Ferris Bueller's Day Off AU that picks up right where the movie leaves off, and imagines what might happen if Ferris' girlfriend and sister become friends. And maybe something more, too.

💎 'tis the damn season by YesIsAWorld / @louandhazaf {E, 17k}

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

💎 bambi legs by @disgruntledkittenface {NR, 11k}

“Oh my god,” Zayn says, rolling her eyes and standing up. “You do know what this means, right?” 

“Yes?” Harry tries, looking up pathetically and hoping Zayn will take pity on her. 

“This means she doesn’t even need the fabric she buys from you every other week,” Zayn says slowly, as if speaking to a small child. “She doesn’t come here for the fabric. She comes here for you.” 

Harry works at her family’s fabric store sometimes and always sells the most interesting fabrics to Louis. Louis is the wannabe fashion designer who keeps buying fabric she doesn’t necessarily need just to find a way to talk to Harry.

💎 in my head we can love forever by @beardyboyzx {E, 1k}

It's official: this is creepy. She's creepy. It's not like anything is going to happen just because Louis is a lesbian too. Harry's got to stop touching herself while thinking about her roommate.

Except that she can't.

Or: Harry might be a bit in love with her roommate.

[veliseraptor]

Hii this might be a bit random but did you have any headcanons for Steve/Loki and pet names/endearments? Just thought I'd ask! Or for Thor/Loki and pet names/endearments. It's cool either way just thought I'd see :)

I actually do not really have any! 

pet names and endearments are hard for me because sometimes they just feel kind of...corny? so I don’t usually go into them much. I know Loki sometimes calls Steve “beloved” which is about the only one I feel like I’ve used. I don’t think I’ve ever had Steve use any for Loki. 

I am still fond of my headcanon about Steve learning ridiculous, awful pick up lines and using them on Loki because that’s the kind of dorky thing I can totally see happening.

[avengersacademy-supportgroup]

For those who didn't have spider Gwen previously, when the labs upgraded did you get her for free or did you still have requirements for her (like objects on the mission board and stuff). I already had her so I wondered wether people who didn't still had certain requirements to unlock her :)

As far as I know she was free when the lab was upgraded. I got her last event so I can’t answer this for certain.

[lionheartlibrary]

Okay so I apologise in advance if this is a bit specific but I was wondering if you or your followers could help. There's a fic Im looking for. All I can remember is there's a scene where Arthur and Merlin are chatting and Arthur bites into an apple, offers it to Merlin and then Merlin takes a bite of the apple where Arthur had just bitten it. It's set in canon times. It might be established relationship? I know that's really vague sorry but I thought I'd ask!! 🙊 thank you either way!

Hi! I’m so sorry for my slow reply. It sounds a bit like The Apple Harvest, but Arthur gives Merlin the apple he bites into. Does anyone else know what it might be?

[wonderwcman]

sorry to be random but i saw your tags on your post of peggy you just made and i agree honestly that kiss looks so awkward they're writhing round in that chair like they've been set on fire it looks v uncomfortable

im so glad im not the only one lmaooo the only reason i gif-ed the scene was cos the lighting was so pretty but i mean that kiss is just yikes....

[bluesargeant]

Hiii I just wanted to say I saw your ladybug and chat noir Instagram au and I loved it! It was so pretty and I loved all your fan casts!

ahh omg i forgot that i even made that post, thank you so much!!

[alarriefantasy]

Howls of the Night by HappyPrincess

Words: 1k

In a world of harsh things, Louis’ lips look soft and forgiving.

said i’ll always be a friend by daddylouist

Words: 3k

Harry and Louis have been best friends and in love with each other since 7th grade. They end up together after watching porn.

OR

the one where harry and louis watch porn and fuck

Venus in Converse by harrystanslouis, larryandgaystuff (cnd8544)

Words: 4k

Louis is looking for magic. Everyone, even her best friend, has tried to convince her she's chasing a fairy tale. Then one night, she finds her. The girl who sets her heart afire. But she's like a dream, always disappearing before Louis can ever reach her.

Ridiculous by @star55

Words: 5k

The first time they meet, Harry’s got her tits out and Louis inhales hairspray. The events might be related.

all down your shoulders and back by eleadore

Words: 5k

Louis has known Harry for three years now, and she’s had plenty of practice avoiding thoughts like that, for her own sake and everyone else’s.

If she ever slips up, it’s because she’s drunk, or high, or Harry’s just threatened to cut off her hair.

(Non AU. Harry and Louis are cisgirls. Everything else is more or less the same.)

 I’m A Bad Girl by @star55

Words: 7k

Louis’ mouth goes dry when she realises that Harry isn’t wearing a bra. That means that the underwear she just pulled out of her pocket was her own. “…Harry,” she starts, standing up slowly. She moves to stand at the end of Harry’s closed knees and licks her lips, trying to get some moisture onto them. “Are you telling me that you walked from school, in the middle of London, to my office wearing no underwear?”

A 17/25 age difference story where Harry goes to Louis’ office after school wearing no underwear.

bright lights (she’s fading) by onlyhuman

Words: 8k

Or: Harry and Louis are psychology students in uni. Their professor is a bit of a fuckwit who makes it seem like kink discussion in a classroom is completely normal. It gets a bit out of hand.

Who Run the World? (Girls!) by @haydolce

Words: 11k

A femslash take on the beginning of Relief Next To Me, complete with girl!Direction, lots of tongue action, and lots of hints to the original work.

my heart is untamed, still by ariadne_odair 

Words: 12k

Or the one where Harry pines and Louis’ mean, but it’s not so fun when the tables are turned.

long way from the playground by @ariadneodair

Words: 14k

“You want one?” Harry asks, utterly oblivious to Louis’ miniature panic attack. “Babe, do you want a cup of tea?”

Babe. Louis is dead. Louis is so dead. She’s a walking corpse over here, oh and apparently she’s hysterical. Well this is just a giant train wreck.

Louis should really get over being in love with her best friend. Harry doesn’t help by acting less than platonic. Liam is Liam and Niall is the best wing woman ever.

 Blush by orphan_account

Words: 15k

“I’ve never wanted to kiss a girl but like, every time I look at your lips I just wanna… fucking kiss you all night long.” Harry’s eyes open wide as Louis’ drop to Harry’s mouth; her lips are swollen from biting them all night, red and wet and plump.

“Then why don’t you?” Harry whispers.

(or, the Christmas FxF Larry fic in which Louis is 99.5% sure she’s straight and Harry likes to walk around shirtless and watch lesbian films)

Love You a Latte by 1Diamondinthesun

Words: 16k

Louis Tomlinson doesn’t drink coffee and definitely doesn’t go to Starbucks. Enter barista Harry Styles. Add a double shot of espresso, stir in 90s references to taste, and top with whipped cream and love.

Or, the coffee shop AU featuring girl direction, creative espresso, and a professor and a barista falling in love in one beautiful autumn.

Read Me Like a Book by 1Diamondinthesun

Words: 21k

The librarian AU featuring girl direction, Pride and Prejudice, a little Shakespeare, and a crash course in love.

 Find Another One, Cause She Belongs To Me by @afangirlfantasy @larrysfootballfairy

Words: 25k

Harry?” She asks. “Yeah,” Harry glances up, her gaze boring into Louis like green flames against Louis’ soul. It’s too much. Those eyes have always been too much. How could she deny them anything? “Just to clarify. You want me to be your fake girlfriend, to pretend to date you? Right?” “Don’t make me say it again Lou,” Harry begs. “Please.” Sighing, she complies, “Yes. I want you to pretend to be my girlfriend.“

Well shit.

or a Girl Direction Uni AU, where Louis is desperately in love with her best friend Harry, who might not be as straight as she thought, Ziam can’t fool anyone, and Niall is just happy with football being her only relationship.

Gently As She Goes by graceling_in_a_suit

Words: 33k

A modern fairytale (literally!) featuring a quest to bring a lost girl home, celtic goddesses, braiding, friendship, true love, and magic.

The Beautiful Game by sunshiner

Words: 28k

or the one with football vlogging, food blogging, salsa dancing, late-night cooking, Brazil sightseeing, way too many bathroom encounters, the recommended amount of unnecessary pining, a bunch of staggering examples of bad stadium etiquette, a Balotelli shirt and a whole lot of snogging. girl!Direction

“What the fuck did you do to my shampoo?” Harry shouts, brandishing the offending bottle like it’s a vial of poison. “Is this fucking mud? Did you honestly replace my shampoo with mud?”“Not just your shampoo,” Louis says calmly, then cracks up when Harry visibly pales.

Harry and Louis are camp counsellors. They hate each other. The amount of sex they have in the camp showers probably contradicts that.

I love your demons (like devils can) by ariadne_odair

Harry didn’t plan to join the football team. She didn’t plan to sleep with the captain of the football team. She definitely didn’t plan to sleep with the closeted captain of the football team, who promptly acted as if nothing happened and left Harry a pathetic, pining mess.

I've been reading your steve/loki series all day and I really really love it. I was reading 'this is my kingdom come' and I think at one point loki called steve 'narvi' I was just wondering what that means? It was phrased like an endearment I thought? Anyway I'm really loving the series and I'm now off to read the rest!

...thaaaat is what we call a continuity error, whoops. He was actually referring to the cat, whose name is Vali, and I am now very embarrassed. 

Narvi or Narfi is the name of one of Loki’s twin sons. Váli is the other, at least according to the Gylfaginning section of the Prose Edda; in the Poetic Edda it’s Narvi/Narfi and Nari. 

I named Váli because I like that name better even though I usually prefer to use the Poetic Edda as a source. But yeah, that’s a continuity error and I just went and fixed it, eh heh heh.

I’m glad you’re enjoying the series! And welcome to the pit, we’re happy to have you. :D

[prettylittleliarsxxxx]

were you surprised that the girls got out of the dollhouse! I was certain they would stayed trapped for a bit more, and then they escaped and I was like *my babies are safeeee :D * by the way, do you have any thoughts on why A/Charles kept Sarah Harvey trapped? maybe as a substitute for Ali when she pretended to be dead? have a nice day and I love your blog!!! xx

Not particularly! I mean, when you think about it, they were in that dollhouse for a month, we just didn’t see all of it. To us it seemed like they’d only been there a few days but it was an entire month, that’s a significant chunk of time to be held captive. I was so happy when they got out though. I mean, I knew they had to eventually, but it was still a relief! I really don’t know why Sara Harvey was kept. Many think that she might be Charles but I think she was more an experiment. He conditioned her to do his dirty work when needed- such as maybe be the person who ‘killed’ Mona. The person who Mona meets at the salon that we can’t see the face of. I don’t know. I won’t be surprised if we see a bit of Stockholm Syndrome from her though. 

[boydbaeulieu]

Hiiiii I'm wanting to read that ICOS series is there an triggery things I should worry about? And do you read it book one Volume one then book one Volume two then book three - book four 😊 thank youuuu

hey hey! uh oh, okay, so – icos is a really dark, heavy series. like, seriously. there is tons of triggery content. i’ll put more details under the cut, but i’ll probably won’t even manage to list it all? which is shitty of me, i’m sorry, once i re-read the series i shall compose a full list of trigger warnings for icos.

now HERE’s where to start/how to read

okay, so. first thing you need to know - at the beginning of the series (and hmm, later on too), one of the MCs is majorly depressed and suicidal. there’s mentions of self harm. suicide attempts. talk of mental illness. characters being mistreated/abused because of their mental illness (often by their family/parents)  

rape. sexual abuse. child abuse (also of sexual kind, but not only). human trafficking. torture - physical and mental (explicit, there’s one torture scene that was basically the hardest scene for me to read). violence. gore. 

drug use/abuse, alcohol use/abuse

use of racial/homophobic slurs/ableist lanugage/misogyny 

**it has also explicit sexual content** thought i’d mention just in case

if you need to know any specific things, don’t hesitate to ask me (i’m publishing this one for any potential readers, but i’ll answer privately to any furhter question if you need me to)
