📍Reading festival

"what if I don't do well? It's my first festival. What if nobody shows Al?" I said from my dressing room at reading festival.

"Darling, you'll smash it out the park, I know you. You smash every set you do. And if nobody shows, I'll be there. Singing along to every word."

"Can I bring you on, just to sing one song"

"you don't need me to sing a song with you, besides you have Matty coming on to sing a song with you later. You'll ace it darling"

"Will I though?"

"yes. go and have a look at the crowd, just a peep. I saw it earlier when I was speaking to Jamie. Its fucking huge"

I go and walk down and have a peep from the side of the stage and there it was loads of people all come to watch me.

"I cant believe it... It's not real. How the fuck did I get here"

"Hard work, and Lots of promotion" Jamie, my manager says from where he just watched me look at the crowd.

"Your on in 1 minute by the way, they've finished soundcheck now."

"Okay. Al? last chance" I say which makes Alex pull his sunglasses down from his eyes "You don't need me, you'll be fine" He says before I shrug putting my in ears in and running out to the stage

"Readinnnng, how we fucking feeling" I shout running onto the stage. the Uproar from the crowd makes me cry

"you know when my manager booked me for this. I never ever imagined that there would this many of you. So thank you. This ones for you guys, for being such great fans, I wanna kiss you all" which was the perfect introduction to my first song of the set Kiss you

And Alex was true to his words, There he was side stage. Singing along to every word of my song.

As soon as I had finished my encore... and exited the stage I could hear people chanting for me to come back out "what do you think Y/n/n should we give them a run for their money" Matty asked me from where he joined me on the side of the stage, all rigged up for a performance. "Yeah okay I'll call you out in a minute"

"Okay, okay I can hear you from out there, you are all so loud. What do you say? one more song?" And I hear the loudest uproar from the crowd my in ears not even defending the sound anymore

"Okay, so here it is...spinning"

"found you at four in the morning. confidence soaring, thought you moved onto a new thing, but you keep it revolving. I look so good dressed in nothing. You ended up falling. I never needed your shelter. I'm good with no warning. My love like a city. All night everywhere. You love being with me. you never forget. 24/7 in heaven, you never forget. thought you'd get over the feeling." Is all I'm singing on my own before Matty comes out and joins in and the crowd a few meters from me is screaming, the lyrics back at me.

"but you just keep spinning over there. spinning over there." Matty and I sing together. The crowd joining in. and a few mosh pits happening from what I can see from the height of the stage.

"You must be feeling the pain." I sing

"You must be wondering" matty sings back we are just vibing, and all of my cares about whether the crowd would like me or not because I was just with one of my best friends doing what I loved.

"amphetamines in your brain" "maybe you're suffering" Matty sings at me with a shrug.

"I must be causing your pain I let you do the same"

"But you never regret a thing. Cause the game feels so good to win, darling" Matty and I sing together.

"Yeah, ooh, You just keep spinning" I sing by myself before Mattys joining back in for the chorus.

"My best friend taught me to sin, forgot that I had one, I'm on my knees and I pray, I shouldn't have mentioned, I'm back here after the states. Thought we could catch up. But I know that you fucking around. cause I know you're with it" Matty sang on his own, the crowd and alex from where he was stood backstage joining him. Before going back into the chorus with me one last time.

"thank you Reading, you've been fucking amazing." I say before running off the stage and running into Alex's arms hugging him and he's spinning me around and placing a chaste kiss on my lips

"How did I do?" I ask once he's put me back on the ground.

"You did fucking brilliant Y/n, It was amazing. I'm so proud of you" Alex says before I'm hugging him back, and we're running off to my tour bus.

Have you ever wanted to find your old Ao3 comments? Easily keep track of which (and how many) fics you've commented on? Rediscover a fic that you left a time capsule of a gushing essay on?

Well, you can! And it's simple! (* Note: it only works for comments written after you turn this on.)

Go to your Preferences:

There's a checkbox labelled "Turn off copies of your own comments". This is selected by default. If you deselect it (and save your preferences) then you receive an email for every comment you leave.

But I don't want to get my inbox flooded by Ao3!

Understandable! Luckily, most email clients allow you to set up rules for incoming mail depending on their sender and contents. For instance (using Gmail), I've made it so that these emails skip the inbox, are marked as read, and moved to a label I call my "Comment Collection".

The result? A complete, organised and fully-searchable repository of any comments you leave from this point onwards! Search by fic name, author, date, that one sentence you vividly remember leaving!

I've set up other rules, too, like starring emails that are replies to my comments - I'm always excited to receive them!

I love this system, and I think it's motivated me to leave more comments. I hope that others find it useful too. Happy commenting!

Original preferences trick from this Reddit thread. Tagging @justleaveacommentfest, which motivated me to write this post!

“The way we talk about zero day its almost like this fire supposed to burn like a thousand feet tall, and never burn out”

in christianity, God is seen as a consuming and everlasting fire. Corinthians 3:13 it says “their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work.” fire here is used as a metaphor for judgement. I think the scene abt cal talking abt the fire symbolizes how zero day is their day of judgement, all their work leading up to zero day is being brought to light, revealed with shots fired, and their bullets will show how all consuming they are ?? or whater the fukc idk, Ive been up all night rambling to myself like a mad man abt this specific scene, I need to sleep

Out Now! The Checkout

Harry is always having to buy embarrassing things at his local mini supermarket. Which would be fine if the guy who worked there wasn't the most beautiful alpha he's ever seen.

Written for the @1domegaverseficfest

“I said, I hope your husband has a nice birthday,” the alpha says, still smiling. It's polite, and Harry can’t work out why there’s an edge to the man’s voice, but there definitely is. Maybe he’s pissed off with Harry for not listening the first time. Wouldn’t be a surprise; Harry is so shit at talking to people.  

And, oh. The alpha thinks he’s married. Because of course he fucking does, Harry’s buying a card that says husband on it and a bottle of prosecco. He really wants to set the record straight, even though there is zero chance it matters anyway.

“Oh! Oh, right, yeah. No,” he says, and the alpha looks confused and amused. Harry feels his face redden more than it was before. “I mean, the card is for Niall.” The alpha nods, still looking slightly confused, and Harry realises that really doesn’t explain anything.

I've been on a small reading binge the last month, anyone have book recommendations? Any genre is fine, but preferably something a bit lighthearted, or easy/fun reads!

You Are The Fever (What A Lovely Way To Burn!)

Fic: You Are The Fever (What A Lovely Way To Burn!)

Summary:

“You built this?” Louis whispered in a trembling voice. Harry's mind finally seemed to kick in and he rushed to explain, “I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, Lou. I know how weird this must look. I didn't mean to take advantage of your stuff behind your back, please, I am so sorry.” Harry was now a blubbering mess. He fucked up. He knew he fucked up. Real bad. It hadn't even been an hour since they made up and Harry fucked it all up. Again. Louis must think Harry’s a weirdo. God. “I will wash it all for you and give it back, I promise. We can both forget everything about-” He was cut by the sound of Louis growling. And oh shit. “You won't touch it,” Louis commanded. Or Harry is an alpha who realizes he’s also into alphas and wants to be submissive. He battles between his instincts and what he wants.
