A fic rec of my favorite Tomlinshaw fics aka the pairing Louis Tomlinson/Nick Grimshaw as requested in this ask. If you enjoy the fics please leave kudos and comments for the writers! You can find my other recs here. Happy reading!

💜 I Had Rather (series) by sunsetmog / @magicalrocketships

(E, 261k, canon) The first time Louis Tomlinson kisses him, Nick is three sheets to the wind, wearing a pirate hat, and so fucking tired of Louis being a complete and utter knobhead that he's spent the last ten minutes snapping at him. The kiss takes him rather by surprise, all things considered.

💜 love and kickin' by camiii

(E, 140k, football) the fic where Nick has no interest in football but is dragged to a football match, Louis is the Arsenal player that catches his attention, and maybe there are some redeeming qualities to the game after all.

💜 Little Lion Man by Writcraft / @writsgrimmyblog

(E, 123k, Potter Direction) As Louis tries to negotiate coming of age, sexuality, first times, homophobia in the wizarding world and his growing feelings for Nick, a new evil emerges which puts Louis and Nick in serious danger. Peace can only last for so long and Louis is about to learn exactly how brave he can be as he finds himself fighting for his life, his friends and everything he’s ever loved.

💜 Midnight Dancers by hazmesentir 

(E, 107k, choose your own ending but you should choose Tomlinshaw) Nearly a year after One Direction ends, Louis finds himself with a choice to make: go back and fix the mistakes of the past, or take a risk on something new? A tale of three men, two love stories...and two endings.

💜 Kissing in the Rain by Writcraft / @writsgrimmyblog

(E, 93k, canon) It starts at a party with shitty cocktails, a DJ that's definitely not as good as Nick and some 'that only happens in the movies' kissing in the rain.

💜 and i refuse to let this go by annemari

(T, 71k, amnesia) The one where Louis and Nick are in a secret relationship, Nick loses his memories, and Louis tries to not fall apart.

💜 You Don't Care About Me (One More Night) by @lululawrence

(NR, 60k, fwb) the one where Louis pines for Harry and Nick helps ease his way into figuring himself out through a friends with benefits sort of arrangement. Things quickly turn complicated.

💜 We Used To Wait by sunsetmog / @magicalrocketships

(E, 56k, character injury) The BBC Breaking News Twitter just says, One Direction star Louis Tomlinson rushed to hospital after M25 car crash.Louis has an accident, but nobody even knows he and Nick are going out.

💜 loose lips sink ship all the damn time (not this time) by MediaWhore / @mediawhorefics

(E, 39k, canon) The one where Louis is outed via a sex tape he made before the X-Factor and Nick can't resist flying to America to give him a shoulder to cry on. Told through flashbacks, this is a story of getting together and getting back together.

💜 The One Where... (series) by checkthemargins

(E, 34k, canon) The one where Nick is accidentally dating Louis.

💜 we are not alone in the dark with our demons by alison

(M, 32k, canon) He can't play along anymore, so he walks out of the studio and gets in his car and drives, the destination not seeming important in this moment. The last person he would expect to find him is Louis.

💜 A Waltz For A Night by sunsetmog / @magicalrocketships

(E, 26k, kink) Louis finds someone who likes every bit of him, and who likes the same things he does. He just hadn't expected that person to be Nick Grimshaw.

💜 walk, walk fashion baby by @disgruntledkittenface

(E, 23k, established relationship) Louis loves his supportive boyfriend, his passionate and interesting band of friends and coworkers, and his pair of quirky and dedicated dogs. What he doesn’t love is his job as co-editor of the Lifestyle section at a popular site aimed at millennials.

💜 I'll surrender up my heart (and swap it for yours) by clairdeloune

(E, 17k, sick fic) When Louis got a text from Harry saying ‘hey so I kind of need you to do something for me’ he didn’t expect it would lead him to standing at Nick Grimshaw’s doorstep with a bag full of groceries, medicine and a box of takeaway.

💜 Portions For Foxes by pukeandcry

(E, 16k, hurt/comfort) Louis injures himself, and somehow Nick winds up taking care of him.

💜 Drive It Like You Stole It by justyrae

(E, 11k, tiny penis) He doesn't know, a tiny voice in Louis' mind reminds him. You can't blame him for not knowing when you never told him.

💜 Polar Bear 'Verse (series) by Jiksa / @jiksax

💜 All the Silver Moons by YesIsAWorld / @louandhazaf

(T, 4k, canon) Nick wakes up in a strange hotel room and is apparently visiting Louis on tour. Which is really weird, because Louis doesn't like him and they've never hung out without Harry as a buffer. And clearly Louis thinks they're *together* together and Nick hasn't the faintest idea what's going on.

💜 Kind of Tough to Tell a Scruff (Stand and Deliver) by sunsetmog / @magicalrocketships

(M, 4k, neighbors) There must be one good thing about your new place. Nick considers for a while. There's a fit bloke lives down my hall, he types finally. In which Nick moves north and Louis lives next door.

i don’t think there’s anything funnier than saying “god forbid women do anything” in response to women doing the most objectively horrifying actions possible.

[disgruntledkittenface]

the bisexuality was there. it didnt change anything. it didn't save anyone. there were just too many forces against it. but it still matters that the bisexuality was there

[disgruntledkittenface]

Today I was trying to chat up this girl standing with her friend at a lesbian bar and said “oh are you two together?” meaning were you friends before being next to each other at this bar and one turns to the other and goes with all the venom of a black mamba snake “I don’t know Cara, are we?” and I was like you know what? not my table

sometimes men are obsessed with other men not because theyre secretly gay but because theyre so misogynistic that they literally dont view women as people worthy of any degree of attention or value

[disgruntledkittenface]

people love to complain about sex scenes in tv shows and violence in movies when the real danger is scenes that make you feel second hand embarrassment.
