Cine: Saved! (2004)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Todo comienza como un juego: Dean (Chad Faust) le revela a su novia Mary (Jena Malone) que es gay. Ambos comparten una pileta y, en el estupor, ella se golpea la cabeza con algo y es rescatada por un carpintero (Thomas Plustwik) a quién confunde con Jesús. Éste le pide hacer lo posible para salvar a su novio.
Ya desde el vamos tomamos conciencia de que vive en un entorno fuertemente cristiano y que, convencida de que el Salvador puede restaurarle la virginidad, decide mantener relaciones sexuales con Dean. Su plan da un vuelco tan violento como inesperado cuando descubre que ha quedado encinta y que su novio había sido llevado a "Mercy Center", una "clínica de tratamiento" para homosexuales, embarazadas, adictos y otros jóvenes con problemas.
Allí surge el temor de ser repudiada frente a una sociedad en la que palabras como "amor" o "compasión" son pronunciadas constantemente. Le aterroriza pensar cómo lo tomarán sus amigos Hilary Faye (la cantante Mandy Moore) y su hermano Roland Stockard (Macaulay Culkin), Tia (Heather Matarazzo), Patrick (Patrick Fugit) y, en especial, el pastor Skip (Martin Donovan), padre de Patrick y Lillian (Mary-Louise Parker), su madre viuda. Afortunadamente, encuentra la aliada menos esperada en Cassandra (Eva Amurri), una rebelde chica judía metida en una escuela cristiana por ser considerada casi un caso perdido.
Este blog ha presentado muchos ejemplos de cómo la religión es un elemento esencial a la hora de narrar una historia sobre personajes LGBTQ. Aquí, el director alemán Brian Dannelly crea una historia prácticamente autobiográfica sobre su experiencia en un colegio bautista y lo hace en un rango satírico en el que explora las contradicciones e hipocresías de quienes presumen de virtud a la vez que expone cómo las buenas intenciones no siempre conducen a los resultados correctos.

Even though I read plenty of fics and have been doing so since I first started in 2021, this is the first time I actually noted down the names of the fics as I read them this month. I’m so thankful to our fandom’s wonderful writers for sharing these with us and it is because I read so many that I wanted to start noting them down so I can remember them. I was debating posting the list but fics have always been a source of comfort for me and if you feel the same, maybe these can bring you some comfort too.
🎃 The Serpent and the Lion by louiseparker @louiseparker [212k]
Seventh year Hogwarts AU in which Harry Styles is an asshole Gryffindor jock with daddy issues, Louis is just trying to get through the year, and Liam, Zayn, and Niall rarely ever know what the hell is going on.
🎃 Tainted Saints And Velvet Vices by Toomanytears @toomanydreamers [126k]
A self-fulfilling Hogwarts AU in which Louis is new to seventh year and Harry is the resident devil-may-care Slytherin set to make his entire experience a living misery. Due to less than favourable circumstances they're forced to forge an unwilling, tentative relationship for their own survival. Repressed emotions, decidedly unromantic ballroom dancing, Triwizard Tournament tasks, creative jinxes and twilight flying above the Forbidden Forest ensue.
🎃 You Drive Me Round The Bend by TheCellarDoor [77k]
In which Louis is a spoilt rich kid who’s always on the phone while he drives and Harry is a struggling musician making his way down the mountain. It’s just a matter of time before they crash and burn.
🎃 but me, i'm not a gamble by orphan_account [33k]
A Posh & Becks AU in which Harry is a star on the stage and Louis is a star on the pitch, but they're both inexplicably terrible at articulating their feelings. In the end, it only takes a season's worth of failed matchmaking schemes, platonic dinner dates, road trip holidays, and one very convenient David Beckham cameo for them to figure it all out. And if Niall knew all along? Well, he at least has the decency not to be too smug about it.
🎃 The Lone Hydrangea by sarah_writes @lightwoodsmagic [77k]
The post Hogwarts AU where Harry's a florist, Louis' a muggle who edits fantasy books, and they both have no say in how quickly they fall for each other.
🎃 The Sunshine Stays by quickedween @becomeawendybird [15k]
It's three years after One Direction got back together, and Harry and Louis have just come off a world tour. They're enjoying a much more relaxed schedule the second time around, allowing themselves to bask in married life. Until, one day, Louis surprises Harry on vacation, and there are some surprising consequences.
🎃 House Of The Rising Sun by @itsmotivatingcara [100k]
Witch Harry/Vampire Louis. The Originals AU.
🎃 Something Like This by multicoloredme [150k]
After leaving his boyfriend, Louis is a little sore emotionally and is ready for a fresh start in a new city. When a coworker tells him about a couple friends looking for a new flatmate, he decides to go for it. Little does he know, that one of his new flatmates is the gorgeous, captivating guy he met at a party a few weeks ago. A New Girl/Grey’s Anatomy/Relief Next To Me inspired AU.
🎃 Say That You Can See Me (I'll Speak Up I Swear) by @coffeelouis [20k]
The liberal arts COLLEGE AU where Harry knows Louis as the best friend of the boy he has been hopelessly in love with for years now and Louis knows Harry as the boy he wished would look away from Zayn long enough to notice him.
🎃 Don't You Think It's Boring How People Talk? by wildestdreams @thelavendrhaze [80k]
A Gossip Girl AU where Louis is the king of the Upper East Side and Harry is the bad boy he loves to hate until a late-night limo ride changes everything.
🎃 Magical Soup by gloria_andrews @gloriaandrews [28k]
Slytherin prefect Louis Tomlinson's seventh year at Hogwarts takes an immediate turn for the worse when he's made to be potions partners with Harry Styles, Hufflepuff's resident heartthrob and class clown. Louis has always considered Styles to be a terrible show-off who coasts by on his charm and good looks, but the more they work together, the more he questions that idea. As term goes on, will Louis be able to admit to himself that he might actually like Harry Styles after all... and maybe, just maybe, as more than a friend?
🎃 King Of My Heart by wildestdreams @thelavendrhaze [80k]
A Red, White, and Royal Blue AU where Hollywood elite, Louis Tomlinson, finds himself falling for the closeted Prince of England.
🎃 And What If I Were You by @jacaranda-bloom [100k]
For Louis, will losing his sight give him the clarity to realise what is right in front of him?
For Harry, will losing the love of his life give him the strength to finally open his heart?
And can they find their way back, before they lose each other forever? A story of love. A story of loss. A story of fighting for each other, no matter the odds.
🎃 Tell me when you're ready (I'm waitin') by insufferablelovebirds [17k]
When Harry's love letters to his old crushes get sent accidentally, one recipient, Louis, offers to help him fake a relationship but it gets complicated when feelings get involved.
Or an au loosely based off to all the boys I've loved before.

Happy 28th! <3 Here's my favorite fics I read this month, organized from longest to shortest. Fics with a * before them found their way into my bookmarks!
*Hiding Place by orphan_account (E, 365k)
Louis never wanted a soulmate, didn’t really care for the whole Bonding thing at all, really. Enter Harry Styles, who’s wanted to be Bonded for as long as he could remember. With one fateful meeting in an X Factor bathroom, Louis gets a dagger on his arm and the realization that just because Harry is his soulmate doesn’t mean it’s mutual.
From the X Factor house to Madison Square Garden, from the Fountain Studios stage to stadiums across the world, Louis has to learn to love without losing himself completely, because someday his best friend will Bond to someone and replace Louis as the center of his universe. Meanwhile, Harry begins to think that maybe fate doesn’t actually know what it’s doing after all, because his other half has clearly been right in front of him the whole time. All he has to do now is convince Louis to give them a chance.
The Serpent and the Lion by louiseparker (E, 212.5k)
Seventh year Hogwarts AU in which Harry Styles is an asshole Gryffindor jock with daddy issues, Louis is just trying to get through the year, and Liam, Zayn, and Niall rarely ever know what the hell is going on.
*Tainted Saints And Velvet Vices by Toomanytears (E, 126k)
A self-fulfilling Hogwarts AU in which Louis is new to seventh year and Harry is the resident devil-may-care Slytherin set to make his entire experience a living misery. Due to less than favourable circumstances they're forced to forge an unwilling, tentative relationship for their own survival. Repressed emotions, decidedly unromantic ballroom dancing, Triwizard Tournament tasks, creative jinxes and twilight flying above the Forbidden Forest ensue.
May We Stay Lost On Our Way Home by LoadedGunn (E, 74.2k)
On March 31st, Harry Styles disappears. Though many speculate, only two people know where to find him: Niall, his former guitarist, and Zayn, who follows where Niall leads.
The fact the biggest boy band in the world broke up two weeks earlier might be related to the disappearance. The fact Harry meets a fairy named Louis in the woods is a whole other matter.
(Liam is a centaur.)
Little by Little by nonsensedarling (E, 65.5k)
Harry Styles is an omega who works at the London Planetarium, has lived in the same flat for ages, and is happy enough on his own. When he gets home from his first (horrible) attempt at dating in years, a new pregnant neighbor knocks on his door after smelling his cooking. He and Louis quickly become close, but their friendship gets complicated when Harry begins questioning who he is and what he likes.
*PA (series) by whoknows (E, 59.2k)
Harry doesn’t think of himself as a womanizer, not at all. Sure, he enjoys sex, enjoys how women feel underneath him, and by some people’s standards he has sex with quite a lot of people, but that’s no reason to tell him that he can’t have a female PA anymore.
It’s especially no excuse for giving him a male PA who’s possibly the most gorgeous boy in the world who won’t even let Harry look at him for too long.
Sometimes Harry hates his life.
*haunted by the ghost of you by missandrogyny (E, 49.3k)
He’s tall—that’s the first thing that registers in Louis’ head when he spots him, standing with his hands behind his back. Tall, with curly hair, staring at them with the widest, greenest eyes Louis has ever seen. And wait, are those dimples? Louis didn’t know ghosts could have dimples.
Because he’s definitely a ghost, this boy. At first glance he looks normal, standing there pigeon-toed in a band shirt (The Ramones, Louis can’t help but note incredulously), dark jeans, and some boots, with rings on both hands, and tattoos littering his left arm—a sleeve made of anchors and names and roses and other completely unrelated things. But he’s also a little bit translucent; if Louis focuses, he can see the outline of the furniture, the design of the wallpaper through him.
“Hi,” the boy—the ghost—says to Louis. His face shifts; somehow his dimples dig deeper into his cheeks. His eyes flit from Louis, to Niall, to Liam, and finally to Zayn, and his face goes from shocked to elated. “I’m Harry.”
At in that exact moment, standing between three of his best friends and staring at a (quite handsome) ghost, Louis can only think one thing.
Nick Grimshaw was right.
To you I can admit, I'm just too soft for all of it by starryhaze (NR, 28.2k)
“Harry?” Louis asks when he hears the frantic crying coming through the speaker. “H, darling what's wrong?”
Concerned, Louis puts on his shoes as he keeps hearing the sobs. It’s the middle of the night and the phone call has definitely pulled Louis out of his deep slumber, but Harry is crying, and Louis has to be with him.
“It’ll be okay, baby, I'm gonna come over, okay? You just- Haz you have to send me your address, yeah? Can you do that for me?” Louis asks, trying to remain as poised as possible as he presses his phone between his ear and shoulder so he can grab his jacket.
“No.” Harry cries out. “It's all wrong, Lou- It’s-” Another sob. “I hate it, Lou, I hate it so, so much, make it stop.”
If This Is a Rom-Com (Kill the Director) by tippitytap (G, 27.2k)
It wasn't like Harry Styles needed a housemate.
It certainly wasn't like Harry Styles needed Louis Tomlinson as his housemate, the musical snob who only listened to a hand-picked selection of 14 artists and who had imposed a no-dating rule between the two upon moving in.
They could manage to be housemates and friends, right? Right?
Run and I'll Give Chase by orphan_account (E, 24.5k)
Harry is a fledgling vampire without a maker. Louis is graciously offering to fill that role.
The Warmth by goldensweetmemory (M, 22.3k)
Based on the movie "Good Luck To You, Leo Grande"
*like a bastard on a burning sea by vashtaneradas (NR, 22.1k)
au; harry breaks louis, louis breaks everything.
*Confessions of a Fabricated Alpha by jaerie (E, 18.3k)
Famous alpha Harry Styles has a secret and paying an alpha to roleplay a relationship with him over the phone is the only way he can be himself.
*Roman Empire by Speechless (E, 11.1k)
One day Louis answers Liam's phone while he is in the shower. That's how he meets Harry, Liam's friend who moved to Italy just a while ago. And that's how Liam loses ownership of his phone.
Never Been Knotted by allwaswell16 (E, 9.4k)
Harry doesn't mind that he presented as a beta. It mostly just makes his life easier and more convenient. There's just one small problem: he'd really like to be knotted.
Devil in my brain, whispering my name by lunarheslwt (E, 9.1k)
Louis, a demon, shows Harry, an angel, just how good it can feel to give in to temptation and sin.
This Ain't Red Wine by LetTheMusicMoveYou (E, 9k)
It’s not until he gets a whiff of the contents of his glass that Louis realizes his grave mistake.
That’s not red wine.
It’s blood.
It’s probably not the most rational, but his first thought is what people are going to think when they discover his body. On the list of stupidest ways for a human to die, accidentally turning up to a Vampire party has to be pretty high up there.
(Help!) not just anybody by yeah_alright (M, 3.5k)
Harry unexpectedly finds himself on a date with a coworker and needs help to get out of it without hurting anyone’s feelings. Louis’s eager to step in.

The Serpent and the Lion
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“What I said made perfect fucking sense—can you stand up?” “Maybe,” Louis hummed, planting one hand on the ground and one hand on the wall.  It only took a few inches before Louis made a sour face, his nose scrunching like he was in pain. He plopped back down. “B-but also, maybe not.” “This isn’t happening,” Harry groaned, pinching his nose. “This cannot be happening.” “I can’t walk,” Louis whimpered. “It’s—they’re just not working, mate.” Louis sat, trembling violently in the cold, and Harry wondered why the fuck he bothered following Louis out of the party in the first place. What could have possibly fucking possessed him to believe this could end in anything other than a shitshow? “You’ve gotta try, Tomlinson. Get up.”  “I’m gonna need you to give me three bloody seconds, because if I get up too fast the ground is gonna start spinning again.” Louis tipped his head back against the wall, closing his eyes. He sniffled once. Then, he inhaled sharply. “Two minutes. I promise I’ll be ready in two minutes.” “We can’t get caught out here with you like this. You look like you’re dying.” “If you want to get out of here faster,” Louis hiccuped, “You can carry me.” Harry laughed, actually laughed at that. “Fuck off. I am not carrying you.” “You’re all problems and no solutions, you know that?” “Not if that solution includes me hiking across the castle with you on my back.” Louis’s eyes lit up, smiling drunkenly as he pointed at Harry.  “On your back— why didn’t I think of that?” Louis hiccuped. “That is genius Styles, honestly—” “I just said that wasn’t happening.” Louis huffed, loosely tucking in on himself.  “F-Fine then. Leave me here. I’ll either catch my death or get—hic—caught by a bloody Prefect, so my odds are looking really solid without you. Cheers.” Merlin’s fucking tits if the boy wasn’t dramatic.  “Godric, you are pitiful, aren’t you?” Louis rolled his eyes upward slowly. He gave Harry the middle finger. “You really can’t get up?” “Keep your voice down.” “Keep my—“ Harry’s face grew hotter as he sputtered in disbelief, “You keep your fucking voice down.” “Get on,” Harry said, crouching to Louis’s level. “Come on.” Louis opened one eye. “You mean it?” “You have twenty seconds before the offer expires. And if you get sick on me, I’m gonna leave you there.” Louis groaned. “So mean.” “I’m literally offering to carry you home.” “Shut up,” Louis waved, motioning for Harry to slide back. “I’m gonna try and get up.” “I need to be quiet so you can stand?” “Be quiet so I can concentrate, you fucking twat.” “That isn’t nice—“ “Shut. Up.” “Fine!” Harry said. 
For a brief moment, Louis scans the bewilderment on Harry’s face, and understanding dawns over him. “You don’t know what a rom-com is.” “No, and I wasn’t going to ruin the moment.” by @louiseparker on ao3

Let's talk fics, it's always a sure bet.
I'm reading De Amore Ex Tempore, by @persephoneflouwers , and I really recommend it. @persephoneflouwers has a culture that impresses me, it’s a joy to read as we feel like we’re growing through her words! And the story, between two eras, is really good, at the same time tender, funny and poignant. I'm 2/3 of the way through the story (I didn't have time to read this weekend), but I already know that I love it.
https://www.tumblr.com/persephoneflouwers/723102186649862144/de-amore-ex-tempore-by-persephoneflouwers
In July I read The Serpent and The Lion by @louiseparker
And I loved it, Hogwarts is now also Larry for me!
https://archiveofourown.org/works/21722245/chapters/51815752
Hi!
I haven't read de amore ex tempore, but i've seen it rec'ed on my dash! I'm always behind on reading finished fics because i subscribe to at least 30 (!) wips at all times and i try to keep up with them all (and i usually manage). I don't think i can do more wips right now lol.
I have read the sepent and the lion more times than i can count. I first read that as a wip too. I also did a reread of it this july! The scene where louis picks h up at the train station? Ughhh so good! It's one of my two favourite larry hogwarts fics, and if you haven't also read tainted saints and velvet vices by toomanytears then go do that right now! (And then come and talk to me about it).

Hi Gina!!! I just wanted to pop by and thank you for recommending The Serpent and the Lion. I just finished it and I have to say JK R*wling obviously really turned me off to enjoying anything set in the Harry Potter universe for a long time but this was such a treat to come to. So heart wrenching. I miss this Harry and Louis already, I’m so upset there isn’t an epilogue 😭😭 (yet?!!!) But seriously, thank you for bringing this story to me, it was a joy to be back in that universe again 🫶🏼
Oh I’m so happy you enjoyed it! I literally have zero interest in anything Harry Potter, but that fic is such a good one.
The Serpent and The Lion by louiseparker (E, 213K)
“Louis doesn’t know what lives in boys like Harry—magnificently beautiful boys, who should want for nothing, but somehow still have a quiet dissatisfaction for life simmering underneath the surface. The change in Harry was something Louis never thought he’d see, but then again, nothing that had been happening lately was ever in Louis’s line of prediction.”
OR
Seventh year Hogwarts AU in which Harry Styles is an asshole Gryffindor jock with daddy issues, Louis is just trying to get through the year, and Liam, Zayn, and Niall rarely ever know what the hell is going on.

Grand Canyon (1991)
Tumblr media
In Los Angeles, three groups of people are about to experience life-altering events. Mack (Kevin Kline) is saved from a mugging by Simon (Danny Glover). His wife, Claire (Mary McDonnell) discovers an abandoned baby while jogging and becomes determined to adopt her. Meanwhile, his best friend, Davis (Steve Martin) decides to stop producing violent action films altogether after a violent assault.
I think you can tell from that brief synopsis what I mean when I say there’s just way too much going on here. Grand Canyon is over two hours long and even so, it feels like everyone should get a little more time. This could've easily been at least two films. The difficult thing is there aren't any stories that feel like they don't belong or who are bad and should've been cut.
There are other plots than the main three as multiple people's lives are affected by the events which kick off the plot. Strangely, Davis' doesn't get nearly the amount of attention it should but without it, the film would seem overwhelmingly preachy. At first, you expect the film to be a hard-hitting drama about race relations in L.A., but it isn’t really. The topic is explored but it's not the picture's main focus. I'm unsure what the film is ultimately about except the way people's lives influence each others'. Maybe I just need to re-watch the film.
Viewing Grand Canyon more than once doesn't seem that bad an idea. Ultimately, it’s a feel-good movie. The story of friendships and love plots are intelligently written. The drama is relatable. You like the characters. The performances are quite good. It makes you think. Even if it's so you can figure out what it all means, you pause and wonder. You won't necessarily make any life-changing decisions of your own after Grand Canyon but that might be one of its strengths. It has nuggets of insight on human suffering and hope that's worth mulling over. That brings me to not so much a criticism, but a disappointment. This picture is rated R, and there’s not really any reason for it to be. The language and brief nudity could've been cut to make it more accessible. Without them, it might be the kind of picture you watch with grandma and the teens.
Grand Canyon is a great choice if you're looking for something to rent. You can watch it with others and it'll inspire some nice discussion but it’s not all that memorable. That’s ok, not every picture has to shatter all of your perceptions and bring you to your knees as you're flooded by the epiphany to end all epiphanies. (On DVD, April 5, 2015)

Fav Larry Fics I Read In July21
Once Upon A Dream - thedeathchamber 
Louis is psychic and gets caught in the middle of a murder investigation led by FBI Special Agent Harry Styles. (33k) [Devastatingly beautiful. The criminal minds vibes were really there. Also the sequel is equally amazing.]
The Greatest Pretenders (In The Cold Morning Light) - MediaWhore
undercover cops/the departed au. Louis and Nick are on two different sides of the law and mobster Simon Cowell is not the only person they have in common. The one where Louis is an undercover cop and Harry is the court-ordered shrink who refuses to prescribe him Valium. (41k) [Wished it was longer. Louis-centric and quite plot focused rather than romance focused which worked so well.]
Pillow Talk - FallingLikeThis
When Harry starts having confusing feelings for a male classmate, his sister's best friend, Louis, helps him figure himself out. Cue lots of kissing, sex, and falling in love. (25k) [Why were there so many good fics this month?? This one had me nearly yelling at them boys to stop being so oblivious.]
Pretty Please (With Sugar On Top) - angelichl
Harry is a sugar baby omega who cons rich alphas for a living. Louis is a rich alpha with too much self-control. (113k) [This one sat unread for wayyy too long. I loved it. They fell so beautiful... also sugar baby Harry.]
And Down The Long And Silent Street - whimsicule 
The year is 1881 and if you’re alone in this world you might as well be dead, because starving dogs have no mercy. Or: Wherein Louis and Harry are on the opposite ends of the social ladder, but their paths still cross on the filthy streets Louis calls his home. The odds are staked against them from the beginning, and even more when Louis' past finally catches up with him. (86k) [I love historic aus and this one might take the cake. Louis is my fav in this.]
Bruise You Like A Peach - falsegoodnight 
There’s two reasons Harry despises Econ. The first is that it’s boring as fuck. The second reason is a bit more personal, a bit more focused in a way. As in it’s focused on one specific thing, or in his case, person. His name is Louis Tomlinson. (40k) [Just for Louis trying to blackmail Harry. Also I do love dom H so.]
Give Me Love - falsegoodnight, soldthouhaz
Despite being an omega, Louis’ always had a blatant dislike of alphas. Or, Louis doesn't feel like a good omega, Harry doesn't remember how to be an alpha, and they figure it out together. (41k) [The way they earn each other’s trust was really heartwarming.]
Feeling Borrowed, Always Blue - falsegoodnight 
Louis has been dreaming of his wedding since he was young - he just never expected it to happen like this. (68k) [Probably one of the most angsty-est fics I’ve read in a while.]
The Serpent And The Lion - louiseparker 
Seventh year Hogwarts AU in which Harry Styles is an asshole Gryffindor jock, Louis is just trying to get through the year, and Liam, Zayn, and Niall rarely ever know what the hell is going on. (167k) [My first hogwarts au and I was not disappointed.]
It Started With A Whisper - jaded25 
Louis doesn't do relationships. He's been there, done it, got the scars to prove it. Never letting anyone too close, Louis can be head over heels for someone for one night but when morning comes, he will be out of the door, no feelings and no regrets. Harry always gives too much, trusts too easily, falls too quickly. Even when he gets nothing in return. Forced to attend University, Harry bumps into his sister's roommate and another time, another day Harry would have been a goner the very second he’d laid eyes on Louis. But he's already got the perfect boyfriend and Louis is the complete opposite of perfect. Louis isn't someone who Harry thought he could ever be with, and Louis never thought he'd break his rules for anyone. Sometimes being wrong isn't so bad after all. (91k) [Pinning, pinning and more pinning.]
Next To Your Heartbeat (Where I Should Be) - jaded25 
All it takes for them to fall in love is one night. All they have to do is wait one year to see each other again. Yet, when Louis returns after his year abroad, the boy who's got his arms wrapped around Harry isn't him. It isn't a stranger either, which should make walking away all that easier. After all, friend's don't lust after their mate's boyfriends. Technically, doing the right thing should be easy - but when has Louis ever been known to taking the easy way out? (130k) [I really don’t condone cheating at all but this fic was next level all round. V hot smut.]

Fantasy AU Fics
- oh so familiar by InsightfulInsomniac (13,203 words)
When Harry transferred to the University of Mestonwood, he hoped that he'd finally fit in. As a witch, he's much less likely to feel isolated on an entirely supernatural campus, right?
Wrong. Thanks to the cold-shoulder efforts of Louis Tomlinson, president of the vampire Coven, Harry still feels the sting of rejection from the most gorgeous boy on campus. It's doubly frustrating that everyone else, even Harry's only close friend, Niall, seems to think Louis is a great guy.
- hard times in elmsmere by stylinsoncity (37,793 words)
in elmsmere, a vampire’s need for blood is only awakened after their first feed. and with their first taste of the vein comes strength, speed and in louis’ case, raging bloodlust for harry, his best mate since the age of three. for louis, being a full-fledged vampire complicates everything, not just his relationship with harry but with harry’s entire coven who took Louis in as an orphan.
Hogwarts AU
- The Serpent and the Lion by louiseparker (212,429 words)
Seventh year Hogwarts AU in which Harry Styles is an asshole Gryffindor jock with daddy issues, Louis is just trying to get through the year, and Liam, Zayn, and Niall rarely ever know what the hell is going on.
- Tainted Saints And Velvet Vices by Toomanytears (126,082 words)
A self-fulfilling Hogwarts AU in which Louis is new to seventh year and Harry is the resident devil-may-care Slytherin set to make his entire experience a living misery. Due to less than favourable circumstances they're forced to forge an unwilling, tentative relationship for their own survival. Repressed emotions, decidedly unromantic ballroom dancing, Triwizard Tournament tasks, creative jinxes and twilight flying above the Forbidden Forest ensue.
- Alone in a Crowded Room by LaughterLoveAndLarry (178,703 words)
Featuring: a very shy and lonely Harry who just wants someone to see him, a sweet and sassy Louis Tomlinson who's determined to befriend Harry no matter how difficult that turns out to be, Niall, Liam, and Zayn as Louis' best friends and confidantes, a reformed and protective Draco Malfoy as the Potions Professor, and a very chatty portrait of Albus Dumbledore.

Godspeed, Glory
by louiseparker
In all truth, Louis could never really hate Harry. Not ever, not if he tried. He's done his best to accept that the love he and Harry shared always had an expiration date, even if he never wanted to admit it. But when Louis gets an unexpected visitor four months after their breakup, he's forced to remember everything he's suppressed for weeks, including the fact that Louis could never really stop loving Harry.
Not ever, not if he tried.
