ABO fics

here’s a few omega louis fics i’ve read or re-read recently, enjoy!

But It’s Useless by @thinlinez (thinlines)

“Hey.”

Louis was even hallucinating now. He closed his eyes.

“Hey, you.”

He chuckled wetly, head still leaning against the door.

“Can you get out of the way? You’re blocking the door.”

He exhaled sharply before slowly turning around. His eyes fixed onto muddy Nike trainers before it traveled up to impossibly short jogging shorts. The yellow color was atrocious, simply ghastly.

“What happened to being polite, Harold?”

OR Omega Louis would never guess that he would be trying to hack into Alpha Harry’s Wifi. That is until everything changes when he tries to get to know his enemy.

don’t want no other shade of blue by @louisisworthit (padfootyoudog)

“I know you’re putting on an act,” says Harry after a moment, and Louis scowls when he realises the prince is actually amused.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” says Louis.

“All I’ve heard over the past couple of years are rumours of Prince Louis’ kindness, and generosity, and oh, he’s so handsome I can barely pour his tea without shaking!” says Harry, putting on a silly, high-pitched voice for the last bit. Louis’ scowl deepens. “I would already know if you were just another selfish, bratty omega prince. You can’t fool me, darling, but I admire your efforts.”

“As you said,” Louis grits out, “those are only rumours. I assure you, I’m a terrible person.”

—

prompt 339: it was foretold that Alpha Prince Harry would be mated to a beautiful male omega with eyes that could rival the stone amethyst, but Omega Prince Louis refuses to believe it.

Anybody Have a Map? by @2tiedships2 (2tiedships2)

Niall rolled his eyes, “You two are weird. Fine. Me and Liam will go by ourselves. Party poopers.”

Niall got up to get ready but first turned to Louis and asked, “Lou are you still kicking me out next week? I’ll see if I can make plans with Liam.”

Louis cringed. Because of course Niall would say something in front of Harry.

“Yeah,” Louis stated. “That’s still the plan. Now run along my little Irish idiot.”

Niall skipped the ten feet to his bedroom to get ready. Louis steeled himself for Harry’s inquiry.

“What’s next week, Lou?” Harry looked down at him with a confused look in his eyes.

Or the one where Louis met Harry in NYC where they bonded as fellow Brits in the large city. Years later, with Louis’ upcoming heat, maybe it’s time for their friendship to become something more.

Let Me Feel Your Heartbeat by @angelichl (angelichl)

Harry is 98% sure Louis hates him. So he feels like his bewilderment is justified when the omega offers to help him through his rut.

No Easy Choice, But You’re Mine by @alltheselights (alltheselights)

Louis’ feet pound on the pavement as he runs, and the echo reverberates through the alley behind him. He drops the gun near a trash bin as he passes, his gloved fingers ensuring that it will never be traced back to him.

He’s panting, his thighs ache, and there’s a cramp forming beneath his ribs on the right side, but all of that is nothing compared to the exhaustion clouding his brain.

I can’t do this anymore, Louis thinks.

Or: Louis is an omega hitman with one last job that goes a little sideways. Harry is the alpha bartender that looks a little too closely and cares a little too much.

Hamartia by @tomlinvelvetfics (tomlinvelvet)

“Your scent lingering on my pillow…

oh Honey,

If only you knew that

the moment I dread most every time you leave…

Is when it fades.”

Six years is a long time for Louis to mend his heart back and erase every lingering, stubborn memory of his ex-lover, Harry Styles. But when news of the war being over spreads across the world like wildfire, and he stumbles upon the alpha he vowed himself to never see ever again, he realises that not even a lifetime will be enough for him to pick up the scattered, broken parts of his soul. He’s far from expecting the alpha he loved to be struggling in the same way.

All the ointments in the world might never soothe the pain out, but it doesn’t take long for them both to come to the conclusion that, maybe, the only medicine to their heartbreaks are what caused them in the first place.

The Space Between by @alltheselights (alltheselights)

Harry Styles is the alpha rockstar who can’t sleep and doesn’t know why.

Louis Tomlinson is the omega PhD student who helps him figure it out.

Where You Lay by @ham-palpert (HamPalpert)

When Louis’s upcoming heat threatens his success at his new dream job, he asks the best (and only) person he can think of to help him through it: his best mates’ best mate, Harry Styles. Harry reluctantly accepts, and together the two navigate a strange friends with benefits relationship that quickly turns complicated.

thinking about the t-shirt you sleep in by @absolutenonsense (nonsensedarling)

Harry’s alpha fraternity donates to a local thrift shop (because of Liam’s latent crush on a cute beta in his lecture). Louis’ financial situation (and confusing omega instincts) lead him to make some interesting fashion purchases. Lots of pizza, feelings, and not-really-lying.

this STILL sends my soul hurtling out of my body and into the sun WHEW

If you aren't getting sick of doing fic recs yet I would love some really good banter fics! I saw that you mentioned banter in some of your fic descriptions and since banter is one of my favorite things to read in this fandom I thought I would see if you have any favorites. Thanks!

No, not sick of it at all. I love talking about fic! Sorry it took me so long though but Harry dropped a thing and then Louis dropped a thing and I was…distracted. LOL! Anyway, let’s see what I’ve got for you…

These Inconvenient Fireworks by mdasch & everydayslike (E, 190K) Ok, I know this is a fic that almost everyone knows, but it’s the real OG and it truly has some of the best banter ever. 

let me make a thing of cream and stars by missandrogyny (E, 25K) This fic is just lighthearted and fun and I love the way they tease each other in this one. 

In Dreams by dolce_piccante (M, 24K) I know this author has much more popular fics, but I’ve always found this one particularly charming. I love the way Louis coaxes Harry out of his shell with his sense of humor and romantic persistence. 

The Finish Line (Is A Good Place For Us To Start) by LoadedGunn (E, 122K) An oldie, but a great one – especially with you want banter and ot5 friendship. And a really good story. And some hot smut. 

like a simile, i paint suggestive pictures (of me and you) by dangerbears (15K, NR) I love the bantering in this one, it’s so funny! Plus it has great Nouis and Zouis friendships. 

No Bunny But You by @crinkle-eyed-boo (E, 13K) I loved the banter in this one! The flirting was fun and so well done and even though it all takes place in one day, I got a great sense of them getting to know each other and opening up. And the smut scene was 👍🏻

gorgeous (it makes me so mad) by resurrectdead / @artxghoul (E, 30K) I yelled about this one a couple of months ago. The banter is great, lots of flirting, Harry’s a bit of a disaster gay, the smut scenes are super hot. It’s such a fun read.

to hell with romancing by @bottomlinsons (E, 8K) I’m not sure if you’d exactly put this in the “banter category”, but Harry’s internal monologue in this is just hilarious. I might read this again tonight, come to think of it. 

Laundry Room by beautlouis / @thelovejandles (E, 10K) It’s been a little while since I read this one, but I do remember a great internal monologue, sweet flirting, and a super hot smut scene!

Be My Little Good Luck Charm by 100percentsassy (E, 35K) First of all, great pacing and sexual tension. Snappy, witty dialogue. Sexy smut scenes. I’ve read this one a few times and like it more each time. 

Right Side of the Wrong Bed by eyesofshinigami (E, 11K) I read this ages ago (when my bookmarking system basically consisted of “I LOVE THIS!”), but I do remember it being funny, sexy, and having great banter. I really enjoy this author’s writing, so if you like this one, check their others out. 

Is This Seat Taken? by Lainy122 (E, 36K) Famous/not famous. Light, funny, I really enjoyed how Louis keeps Harry on his toes throughout this one. 

Enjoy!

Find the rest of my fic recs here!

red hands by reveries_passions @harrytum

Length: 129k

“I’ve never told anyone,” Harry murmurs, voice so soft no one else would be able to hear, if it wasn’t just the two of them.

“But you’ve told someone,” Louis tells him firmly. “And that’s not gonna fucking happen around here. You don’t speak a word of it, or someone’s going to kill you, and we can’t let that happen.”

*

a dystopian au in which harry, an ex-soldier who’s escaped from his government run camp, accidentally stumbles across the biggest rebel movement in the country, and louis, one of the rebellion’s mysterious leaders who appears to hate him, seems to simultaneously have an obsession with keeping him alive. or: harry is wanted for treason, niall hasn’t changed in four years, liam is always smiling, and louis is angry. like, really angry.

Guess who's back

oh boy i guess the fake harry styles???

[thefakelouistomlinson]

Team USA v. Team UK - Dodgeball w/ Michelle Obama, Harry Styles & More - #LateLateLondon

[thefakelouistomlinson]

why harry styles was actually on theme

i’m that one person who read notes on camp and thinks i’m the authority on camp now. but i mean i’m a lesbian so i know everything. moving on

what susan sontag makes clear is that the meaning of camp is, not clear. and that there is a difference between camp and campy, where campy is purposefully trying to create something camp. camp in itself is serious in its intent.

so what is camp that doesn’t try to be camp? it’s finding genuine enjoyment in “bad” taste, it’s incredibly stylising something mundane. camp is the “failure of seriousness”. art pieces gain the essence of camp after some time so camp will always have an essence of being outdated or old. it is exaggerated and most of all, very importantly, androgynous and gay.

let’s start with the obvious point then: the outfit is androgynous. although susan sontag claims camp to be apolitical, she failed to acknowledge (it was published in 1964) the radical nature of camp and its use as a political and cultural weapon by the gay community. imo this is the most androgynous look harry has ever worn in public, and his androgyny is a statement. especially being in the closet, harry knows that many men are very afraid of losing their masculinity and there is an innate contempt for femininity in men. with the femininity of his outfit, harry styles takes genuine pleasure in clothing that would be considered “bad”. this is brave, it’s a statement, and it’s the essence of camp.

what i think harry is doing is he, unlike most of the other guests, has managed to make the distinction between “campy” and “true camp”. he knows that in order to achieve the latter he needs an outfit that takes itself seriously. so he goes for black, for lace, for dress shoes. and he almost fooled everyone. but in this look he incorporates elements that should be traditionally viewed as “bad” taste: baggy, high waisted trousers. puffed up arms. a lot of lace. and he wears them with the confidence of someone who knows their outfit is the shit. why? because that’s camp

i’d also like to add that even if i know he wears them regularly and not just for this, his HS rings are SO camp, an ironic take on the “rockstar” bejeweled image he and the media have created. an accessory that shows such a confidence in himself that you don’t even have to know whether it’s self depricating or not to enjoy it as camp

“but kira,” you say (if you happen to know my name) “where is the theatrical nature? the extra-ness? the kitsch?” 

oh, it’s there, you just have to look for it. he parodies masculinity by pulling his dress trousers so high up he creates a waist and the semblance of a cleavage with them. harry goes “you want me to wear suit trousers? like a man? ok i’ll give you man,” and he gives you man until it turns into woman. “the most attractive thing about masculine macho men is their feminine features” says sontag, and harry listens. his gicantic lace chest piece starts with the idea of a bowtie and just goes ham with it. his heels are high and theatrical, a feminine bastardization of the masculine dress shoe.

but i’d like to add to the more well known instances of camp that susan sontag insists art nouveau is the embodiment of camp. opera, mozart, roccocco are all listed as high camp. the excess of style over substance, overbearing detail and love for beauty can be seen on the details of his pussy bow blouse, especially the lace. the idea of old fashioned extravagance placed awkwardly on top of such a modern, sheer outfit is SO camp. moreover, the earring (we’re not even going to talk about how he pierced the gay ear that’s another rant altogether) is imo CLEARLY reminiscent of “the girl with a pearl earring”.  appealing to classical art is again highlighting the love for style and opulence for no apparent reason, especially with jewelry. also, this point has already been driven home but him incorporating “the girl with a pearl earring” in his look while having short hair, stubble, and a masculine jaw is raising a beatiful, stylish eyebrow at the concept of gender. blurring the lines. as my old mate susan says, “ the ‘off,’ the things-being-what-they-are-not”. camp!

now, a few words about his second look: while his first tried a bit of true camp, whether that’s even possible or not, his second look is obviously “campy”. he makes fun of the same elements of the straight man suit: the stiff trousers pulled up to his breast, the white shirt frilly, the bowtie lopsided and clown-like. he’s having fun with it, an appreciation for what is not an attractive outfit (i’ve seen people compare him to pingu and i’m not even mad). that’s campy! but nothing can really be camp if they do it with intention, because even if he loves his uneven bowtie he still knows it’s funny-looking.

i’d like to finish my very official and serious thesis with not one but two quotes by wilde which (even if i already make a habit of quoting him in random situations) susan sontag quoted herself.

first: “one should either be a work of art, or wear a work of art”. cole sprouse has mentioned this on the pink carpet and joked that he would much rather wear the art. harry, on the other hand, blended the black lace perfectly with the many tattoos underneath the sheer material, making his body seamless with the outfit and indeed becoming the work of art.

second: “to be natural is such a very difficult pose to keep up”. anyone who’s lgbt, i’m guessing, can resonate with this. camp is the rejection of “normal” and “natural” and the exploration of freedom. with the TWO parodies of red carpet suits that harry has worn at the met gala, he rejects pointedly the shakles of the closet and makes his look so much more camp in its rebellion and power.

Baaaaaaabe

[thefakelouistomlinson]

remember when 1d performed on a popular american webshow so they could widen their audience but harry got sick and instead of his management insisting he go to a hospital he just slept in the bed of an uncomfortable girl from seattle for a couple weeks until they decided to hire a plump and determined shirtless boy named gibby to take his place at which point he revealed that he was no longer sick but simply pretending to be so he could get free cubed fruit reblog if you remember dark harry

[thefakelouistomlinson]

i may be a whole dumbass but at least i’ve never thought that harry wrote sweet creature or two ghosts about his sister

If Harry didn’t sing, “Harry had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb. Harry had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow” during this photo shoot then what even was the point?

[thefakelouistomlinson]

hello guys! so, me and my girlfriend met because of harry styles (and God, of course!), and he helped us to come out to our parents! :) we live in abusive homes, so we are trying to get out own place (just to pay rent and that stuff), so we can live together! we are from different states and we met online, also! we think harry is really sent by God to make people like us feel safe and loved!

well, to raise money to buy really basic stuff to survive, me and my girl started drawing and making harry styles pins! you can buy them here to support us!

 we have no money to make a lot of them, so for the next month we are saving to make a louis one and a new one of harry.

size: 5 cm | made in zinc alloy | soft enamel | butterfly clasp they are all painted by hand. his shirt is painted with glitter and harris reed even liked it on our instagram. we ship worldwide! thank you so much!
