"That one's wrong."
Larry did not look up from his homework, knowing full well who was speaking and what was coming next. With a sigh, he drew his papers closer to him, leaving the back of his desk clear. Ernest sat down on it immediately, one leg tucked underneath him and the other foot propped up on the edge of Larry's seat, blocking him off from the rest of the classroom.
Resolutely, Larry frowned down at his homework. He could see, now that it had been so helpfully pointed out, where he had made a mistake, but he didn't want to give Ernest the satisfaction of seeing him erase his work.
"You don't seem very chipper this morning," commented Ernest, resting his chin on his hand and leaning in.
"Maybe because someone's taking up my time and workspace when we are supposed to be studying," replied Larry, giving up and restarting the problem.
Ernest hummed in consideration, and Larry resolved himself to ignoring him entirely. It went spectacularly well for about another minute, as he finished his work for the problem, although he was acutely aware that Ernest was watching him the whole time.
"You know," said Ernest, as Larry turned over the paper, "I'll leave, if you want me to."
Larry looked up sharply in surprise, only to find that Ernest was much closer than he had originally thought. He startled, and sat up straighter, pushing his chair a little further away from the desk to properly look at Ernest without going crossed-eyed.
"I- what?"
Ernest tilted his head and smiled. Larry wasn't sure what to make of that.
"I said, I'll leave if you want me to," Ernest repeated. "If I'm really an unwanted distraction."
Larry blinked several times, trying to process the odd tone of Ernest's voice, which, coupled with his teasing smile, was making Larry feel both warm and cold at the same time. Ernest nudged Larry's leg with his shoe, still balanced on the side of Larry's chair, and Larry swallowed his confusion.
"You're certainly a distraction," he said, leveling Ernest with a look that he hoped was as stern as he meant it to be.
"Larry, please," Ernest drawled, "it's not my fault that I'm interesting."
"And the fact that you're choosing to be so awfully interesting on top of my homework is, I'm assuming, also not your fault?" asked Larry.
He folded his arms across his chest, because this deviation from their usual morning interactions and Ernest's wholehearted attention was making him feel more than a little unsteady, and he wanted to at least pretend he wasn't going pink with inexplicable self-consciousness.
"Oh, no," said Ernest, "that I will take the blame for."
Out in the hallway, Prufrock's clanging bell sounded for the end of the period. Larry recognized, somewhere in the back of his mind, that they both needed to go, but it didn't translate to any attempt to actually do so.
"Why are you here, then?" he asked, cautiously.
With the glee of someone who had been just waiting for the right question, Ernest slid forward on the desk so he was right in front of Larry.
"Because," he said, reaching out and straightening the tie of Larry's uniform, "I prefer your attention to anyone else's in the school."
Ernest stayed right there in Larry's space for just a moment, watching his words sink in, before patting Larry firmly on the chest and sliding down off the desk. He strode across the now-empty classroom as if nothing unusual had happened, even though Larry didn't think he could breathe anymore.
"Oh!" said Ernest, stopping in the doorway and looking back at Larry. "Still on for a tutoring session tonight?"
"Uh-huh," managed Larry, as his brain supplied helpful things like hands, tie, legs, smile, lips.
Ernest smiled, and the expression simply exuded satisfaction.
"Looking forward to it," he said, and he was gone, leaving Larry to his racing thoughts and unfinished homework.

mutually beneficial ; esme squalor / sally sebald
a last minute argument arose, and esme and georgina, who had previously planned on going to the masked ball together, were now going separately. didn’t have the ability to hypnotize someone into being her date like georgina could, esme decided to strike a deal with someone she knew who was definitely not happy about the georgina’s act of hypnosis.
caramel salt ; georgina orwell / bertrand baudelaire
long letters filled with complicated words discussing different fields of topics, polite pleasantry catching flies with honey, subtle suspicious glances at each other behind the glasses. it’s not a love story, but maybe it could have been, once, had things been different.
3, 2, 1, Action! ; gustav sebald / larry your-waiter
gustav sebald got on his nerves, and larry really only put up with him for jacquelyn’s sake, knowing he was jacquelyn’s good friend. gustav sebald with his annoyingly handsome hair and his annoyingly husky voice as he talked about zombies in the snow. gustav sebald with his ridiculous black cape that was supposed to make him look like a ridiculous vampire wanna be but only somehow made him look ridiculously attractive. it’s becoming a problem.
another first kiss ; beatrice baudelaire / r, the duchess of winnipeg
the first time beatrice and r kissed, it was at a rehearsal for a play. it was r’s first kiss ever, but she knew it probably wasn’t beatrice’s. the moment ended far too soon, and before she could realize it, esme was already loudly saying the next line, and everything that happened that afternoon afterwards felt like a blur. it was just a rehearsal, a kiss that didn’t mean anything, r told herself. but why did she keep thinking back on it?
unsent ; ernest denouement / bertrand baudelaire
he wrote a letter every week, and then stashed it into the locked drawer of his desk in his office at the hotel. “thought i saw your from afar when you came to visit dewey yesterday, i like your new haircut.” “did you have the chance to do the crossword puzzle of daily punctilio last week? 13 down reminded me of an inside joke we had.” “i miss you i miss you. i’m starting to think frank’s music taste is getting worse, i didn’t know that was possible.”

Hemingway and Other Things You Shouldn't Talk About
Tumblr media
Hemingway Said, You Do Not Talk About Writing
Rule number one: You do not talk about writing. Rule number two: You do NOT talk about writing! I always picture Brad Pitt walking around telling a group of authors all the rules before a furious word slinging writers event, in some dark, seedy basement covered in sweat and coffee stains.
Tumblr media
Hemingway and Fight Club have things in common, such as rules about not talking. Obviously this is not the case. However, as writers we have a series of unwritten laws that we tend to either abide or pretend to be oblivious too. I am Jack's complete lack of interest. Writers Have Heroes, Too As writers, we have authors as heroes just as those school kids look up to athletes. Stephen King, Ernest Hemingway, Henry Miller and Stu Stein, to name a few. These authors broke the first rule of Writing Club: they all have a publication called On Writing. "Throughout Ernest Hemingway's career as a writer," says Larry W. Phillips in his introduction to Ernest Hemingway on Writing, "he maintained that it was bad luck to talk about writing." So what else are we mortal writer's, superstitious or otherwise, not supposed to do or say? There is quite a list, actually. I am Jack's bleeding heart. Rule #1 As we have established, it is bad luck to talk about writing. Thanks, Ernest. Why, though? Basically, as Hemingway explains further, it is better to just write and not speak of it. In his method of removing all the bullshit and leaving behind only the greatness. I disagree with this almost completely. Almost. I feel that we are just glorified campfire story-tellers. It is our duty to tell stories. Written down for others to enjoy at their leisure, obviously, that's why we are "writers". At the core of it all, however, we tell stories. Talking about our stories is just in our nature. I am Jack's gaping mouth. I do agree with the concept that we shouldn't brag, and we also shouldn't try to school or teach every passer-by with our knowledge of the process. Just tell the story, mate. Rule #2 Another no-no myth is that we should write perfect. I am Jack's decaying ego. As the saying goes: practice makes perfect. I disagree. I used to tell my football teams that practice does NOT make perfect, only perfect practice makes perfect. They just looked at me and nodded "yes coach".
Tumblr media
Don't practice writing, practice perfect writing. In writing, this same method applies to an extent. If you practice writing you will get better, but only so far as you write perfect. The problem is that no one just writes perfectly out of the box. If we did, there would be no need for drafts and we would just pump out perfect final drafts day in and day out. James Patterson was said to have written over a million words before he wrote his first novel. Writing makes you write better, but to write better you don't just write words, you write better words. The one issue I have with this is that trying to write every word perfectly distracts from the art. Instead, I suggest that you just write. Worry only about perfection while editing and focus on writing perfectly whilst writing the final draft. Otherwise, just write. Rule #3 Don't write like your idols. Sigh. I have heard this over and over and over and every time it upsets me to no end. Believe it or not, there is a finite number of writing genres. We are drawn towards certain ones and turned off by others. I, for example, love thriller and horror and dislike romance and most young adult. Having authors as idols is not a bad thing and if we aspire to be an author then who should we emulate? Our idols. Exactly. So why are we told not to? The reasons vary from one mouth to another, but the main theme seems to be that we should write our own style in our own voice. I tend to believe, though, that our own style and voice will come out, anyway. We should write like our idols. I don't write romance, and would never try to emulate Nicholas Sparks. However, writing horror I see nothing wrong trying to write in similar styles of King, Koontz or Barker. Will I ever write a book and have a publisher read it and say... "Hey! did Clive Barker write this?" No. That will never happen. However, if I am trying to sell a horror book and someone compares it to Clive Barker, then I should feel overwhelmingly excited about that. Writing like your idols is never a bad thing. Rule #4 You should never ask your mom for feedback. Again, heavy sigh. Friends and family are essential for writers' feedback, especially if you are just starting out. While it is true that mom and dad will have a harder time giving you negative feedback (generally) this is not a bad thing. As a writer, you will experience enough setbacks and hardships and negativity to last five lifetimes. Eventually it will harden you, make you better, make you more fierce. In the beginning though, it's detrimental to your writing career. If you start out with negative feedback, you will eventually believe it. Having mom coo and gush over your first few works will help boost your ego and keep you going. From there, you will begin perfect practice and have thousands more words under your belt. You must seek out your mom and close friends for feedback in the beginning (and again any time you need to return to your happy place of believing you can accomplish this task). It is essential, and helpful. I am Jack's boastful pride. Rule #5
Tumblr media
If you don't know, believe you know. Base it on natural physics or biology and readers will believe it as real, too. Write what you know. This is tricky and I agree with it to a very limited extent. Readers (and publishers alike) know when you are bullshitting them. If you are writing about car mechanics and you know nothing of repairing an engine, you will turn your readers off. Once you lose a reader because you don't know what you are talking about, they will never believe another word you write, if they even finish the book. However, just writing what you know will severely limit what you write about. And what about things that no one knows about? Aliens, vampires, deep space... if we only ever wrote what we knew, then books like Lewis' Narnia or Tolkien's ring quests and hobbits, would never exist. I take the phrase "write what you know" and change it slightly to "write what you believe." A simple change that allows the author to have a slight edge in the truthfulness in the story. I am Jack's cancer-ridden mind. We Don't Know Everything Certainly no one knows about hobbits, but Tolkien believed in them so much that what he said about them was a gospel of truth. No one doubts hobbits because Tolkien didn't doubt them. However, we can't always write absolute fantasy. So you should know your material. You need to know how wounds heal, how radios operate, or how television signals work. Otherwise, if you bull shit these small details, You won't have much success. Roald Dahl wouldn't have such success with Willy Wonka. Sure there is a great deal of fantasy in that chocolate factory, but imagine if Dahl had simply made up how television signals work? We would never believe that it was possible to travel through those television waves and might have put the book down. Believe what you write and learn what you do not know. Don't be afraid of research and get the small details right. Rule #6 Don't write cliche. The main problem I have with this "advice" is that we then have to define what is cliche. Then, further, if we don't write cliche, there wouldn't be cliche to write. The issue there is that cliche works. That is why it is cliche. Now you are asking yourself how many more times can I possibly say that word in one paragraph. The answer is 97. However, I will refrain. Yes, the works can be overworked or even trite. They are important. This is never more obvious than when you get ideas for stories. Just like Hollywood, the literary world goes around in a circle. For example, right now we have an influx of super hero movies that followed a slew of Romance and Romantic comedies. True, too, will be that the literary world will follow suit. Wizards and broom stick games followed by vampires and werewolves. It's all a Cycle Horror is popular when Young Adult is on the decline and Romance blooms when Fantasy fades. Just because you write cliche projects (96) don't worry about it. You may have to put it in a drawer and forget it for a few years, but soon and once again, the time will be right and people will be clamoring for that long-forgotten cliche (95) to be unleashed. Don't be afraid to complete a project, just because the market is currently flooded with a similar style of work doesn't mean it won't get noticed. "It's only after we've lost everything that we are free to do anything." Rule #7 You must find your unique voice. Umm. This is such a convoluted piece of advice. Yes, you do, but no, you do not. Confused? You should be. I spent too many wasted hours trying to follow this seemingly simple "fact". Hours I will never get back. Quickly (as I have other posts and pages about voice here that go into deeper detail), voice is not how you talk or the sounds that come from your characters mouths. Voice is, in essence, a style. The catch, however, is that your book's voice is unique to that book. Your voice will change from project to project. Do you need to find it? The real answer is that you will notice the voice emerging as you work. From draft to draft your project's voice will emerge and you can then focus more on it. For now, in the beginning, it isn't such a big worry. It will come and if it doesn't, then that is one tale-tell sign that perhaps that particular project isn't making the finish line. Rule #8 Finally, the old tale to ensure you write every single day. You must write X amount of words, or for X amount of hours every single day if you are going to be successful. There are so many "facts" to support this: King writes 2000 words every day and won't stop until he's done it. Or, Koontz ensures, he writes for a minimum of 2 hours each day. Yes, that method works for some, even a lot of, people. However, these famous authors are paid to write. Are you yet paid to write every day? I know that I am not. I have work, and children and family and friends and shopping to do and places to go. Let's be frank. You need to make the time to write. It does need to be a habit that you can do and get into. If it's ever a chore, then perhaps it isn't for you. It is nice to have goals. However, I will fight to the death against anyone that says I must write a certain amount or for a certain time every single day. We Have Lives I have a life. You do too. While you, like me, want to make a career from writing, you also have other obligations and other spontaneous things that appear that take our time, focus and attention away. Go with it. Get a break. Take a day or even two off. Go outside. Research. Read. Watch a movie. Get some sun on your skin. Go shopping. You do not have to write every single day. Just as long as you don't fall in the hole and make not-writing the habit. I am Jack's exhausted colon. Write. Write often. Get lost in it. Talk about it. Get positive feedback. Enjoy what you do and do it with a fervor and a vigor that rivals pure passion. Read the full article

The Midheaven: How You Will Be Remembered
The Midheaven (MC) is commonly thought to describe one’s career path. Although this is a decent indicator of one’s overall path, it can be hard to relate to a specific career so early in one’s life. So, if you don’t relate to your Midheaven like, “Oh, you have a MC in Aries, so you’re probably going to be a police officer, solider, or athlete" then maybe try thinking of the Midheaven as how you will be remembered or what you are generally associated with. (Always trust your dominant sign to describe you the most- *a post similar to this coming soon) ✨No matter what career you decide, you will be remembered by your peers, co-workers, friends, and family by traits from the sign, aspects*, and planets* bestowed upon your 10th House.✨

SHAFT New Line Cinema’s action comedy “Shaft” is the next chapter in the film franchise featuring the coolest private eye on any New York City block. Tim Story (the “Ride Along” and “Think Like a Man” franchises) directs this all-new take on a legend, starring Oscar nominee Samuel L. Jackson (“Pulp Fiction,” “Kong: Skull Island”), Jessie T. Usher (TV’s “Survivor’s Remorse,” “Almost Christmas”), Regina Hall (“Girls Trip,” “Barbershop: The Next Cut”), Alexandra Shipp (“Straight Outta Compton,” “X-Men: Apocalypse”), Matt Lauria (TV’s “Kingdom,” “Friday Night Lights”), Titus Welliver (“Argo,” TV’s “Bosch”), Cliff “Method Man” Smith (“Keanu,” “Train Wreck”), and Richard Roundtree, the original John Shaft. JJ, aka John Shaft Jr. (Usher), may be a cyber security expert with a degree from MIT, but to uncover the truth behind his best friend’s untimely death, he needs an education only his dad can provide. Absent throughout JJ’s youth, the legendary locked-and-loaded John Shaft (Jackson) agrees to help his progeny navigate Harlem’s heroin-infested underbelly. And while JJ’s own FBI analyst’s badge may clash with his dad’s trademark leather duster, there’s no denying family. Besides, Shaft’s got an agenda of his own, and a score to settle that’s professional and personal. The film is produced by John Davis (“Game Night,” “Joy”) under his Davis Entertainment banner. “Shaft” is written by Kenya Barris (“Girls Trip,” TV’s “Black-ish”) & Alex Barnow (TV’s “The Goldbergs”), based upon the character John Shaft from the novel by Ernest Tidyman. Serving as executive producers are Tim Story, Ira Napoliello, Kenya Barris, Marc S. Fischer, Richard Brener and Josh Mack. Story’s behind-the-scenes creative team included director of photography Larry Blanford (“Ride Along,” “Tag”), production designer Wynn Thomas (“Hidden Figures”), editor Peter S. Elliot (“Ride Along 2”), and costume designer Olivia Miles (“Ride Along 2”). The music is by Christopher Lennertz (“Nobody’s Fool,” “Pitch Perfect 3”), and Dave Jorden served as music supervisor. New Line Cinema presents a Davis Entertainment Production, a Tim Story Film, “Shaft” is set for release on June 14, 2019. It will be distributed in North America by Warner Bros. Pictures, and internationally by Netflix.

Monthly Reads | January 2017 ❤ THANK YOU TO ALL WRITERS FOR YOUR HARD WORK AND SHARING YOUR STORIES! ❤
Special mention⭐ & Top 5 + 16 more stories under the cut:
⭐ 2017 HL Prompt Challenge ⭐
“A small group of us came together to do a prompt challenge with fast deadlines to have some fun and see what we can do, and this is the result. Hope you enjoy!” Authors: taggiecb, afirethatcannotdie, QuickedWeen, waytoomanypeopleintheaddisonlee, Awriterwrites, allwaswell16, LadyLondonderry, lululawrence Prompts so far: Foundation, Bloodsucker, Hinge, Scream (revealed today)
Where Your Heart Is
by anhcor & tvshows_addict | College AU | hate to love | slow burn | 154k Louis is ready for his brand new adventure. So what if he suffers from a genetic condition that prevents him from being touched? College is going to be awesome. It has to. Karma kind of owes him right now. Forget about his overprotective mother, or Liam-- his entirely too chipper step brother-- or his mess of a roommate. Forget about the gloves he has to wear at all times. He’s here to expand his knowledge, write and drown himself in books -- No matter how distracting ‘Hallway Boy’ may be-- The obnoxious, flirty frat wannabe determined to become the bane of Louis’ existence. Or, a college AU set in San Francisco where two lost boys who seemingly have nothing in common find inspiration, each other, and themselves in the process.
Black With Autumn Rain
by whimsicule | thriller | crime | magical realism | 93k “Thank you,” Geoff says, taking a sip of his tea. “What did you tell him?” Louis has a sip as well, lets the tea burn down his throat too quickly, too hot, and he feels it all the way down to his stomach. “The truth. Essentially,” he replies after a moment, licking his lips, relishing the slightly bitter taste of the brew that’s never quite strong enough for Louis’ liking. At least it’s not decaf. “That my dog scented it. That I didn’t touch the body. That I came here first thing.” Geoff nods pensively. “Did he believe you?” “Probably not. There’s only so many people who can drown on dry land before it gets fishy.” or: Harry is a journalist, Louis has lots of secrets and the moors aren't exactly the ideal place to rekindle a lost romance.
Hold My Heart
by Awriterwrites & phdmama  for H/L Exchange 2016 | famous/non famous | Mile High Club | Actor!Louis | Doctor!Harry | 14k “Excuse me, mate, I’m the window seat here.” The voice was soft, apologetic, and accented in something a bit unfamiliar — northern England, maybe, Harry thought. “Oh,” Harry jumped to his feet and moved aside, “I’m sorry, I didn’t see you standing there.” The other man laughed as he swung a bag into the overhead compartment and slid into the seat. “You were well caught up in that book, mate. What are you reading?” Harry paused, wondering how to explain the fact that he was reading an epic and x-rated romance that was the story of a relationship between a prince and the man he’d enslaved. “Oh, you know, just some fiction my sister recommended.” He turned to look at the man and froze. Sitting next to him was Louis Tomlinson. *** Or, the one where famous Louis Tomlinson offers his hand and a lot more to his seat mate on a transatlantic flight.
What do you mean he's coming?
by MediaWhore for HL Famous/Not Famous Fic Exchange | Childhood friends | famous/non famous | actor!louis | photographer!louis | 15k When Harry accepted to be his sister’s Maid of Honour, despite how non-traditional of a choice he was, he didn’t think writing a speech for the wedding reception would be this hard. Now, not only does he have less than two weeks left to find something moving and inspirational to say, but Gemma just confided in him that her old childhood best friend is going to be in attendance. The one who moved to LA and they haven’t seen in fifteen years because he was too busy becoming an Academy Awards winner. But hey, no pressure. It’s just Louis Fucking Tomlinson. Harry is screwed.
Singing to tiny dancer
by BriaMaria | Famous/Non famous | Actor!Louis | 22k “Yes!” Harry punched a fist into the air. He laughed at the confusion that wrinkled the little space between Louis’ brows. “What?” “You’re flirting with me,” Harry smiled, letting his dimples pop. Louis’ face went blank for two seconds and then he rolled his eyes, one side of his mouth lifting. “Am not.” “You soooo are,” Harry sang out, poking him in the shoulder. “You like me.” “I was simply showing you how to actually bring… what did you call it? Your A-game.” Harry adopted a patronizing expression, sure it would piss him off. “And you did great. Really.“ “Oi, fuck off,” Louis said, but he was actually laughing now. Outright. It was gorgeous and Harry wanted to live in this moment forever. It was the very best one he’d experienced. He wanted to always remember the image of Louis’ crinkled eyes, the sound of his breathy giggles, the smell of citrus that radiated off him as he swayed in his amusement. And Louis didn’t even know his name. Or ... When everything gets to be a bit too much for A-list actor Louis Tomlinson, he runs back to the town he had never really called home and the boy who was the only one he did.
Beautiful Star 
by tommoandbambi for We Wish You a Larry Christmas Fic Exchange | famous/non famous | kid fic | christmas fluff | 17k “You know, when I pegged you for a druglord, I wasn't exactly challenging you to make me believe that you actually are one. What is this place?” Louis says after he swallows over the mild panic that's building up in his throat over the fact that he's literally sitting in front of the cause of his teenage sexuality crisis. or, the famous/nonfamous kid!fic AU wherein harry and louis have to host a school Christmas party and harry isn't actually a druglord.
Play The Odds 
by alivingfire | College AU | friends to lovers | 26k Harry and Louis are best friends since childhood who, after a night of drinking, find themselves locked in a bet: first one to kiss the other a thousand times wins. Wins what? They don't know. Glory, Harry supposes. Bragging rights, though those don't do much in this economy. All Harry knows is that this is one bet he can finally win. What he doesn't expect, though, is what happens when he starts kissing his best friend on a daily basis. Namely, he doesn't expect falling head over heels in love with his best friend. Now all he has to do is make sure the bet never ends, so he never has to stop kissing Louis.
Runner On Third 
by kikikryslee for H/L Exchange 2016 | slow burn | friends to lovers | 40k As Harry stood there, the other man turned around, and he knew he was correct in who he thought it was. “Louis?” he asked, still not quite believing it. Louis blinked. “Harry? Wh– what are you doing here?” “I work here,” Harry said. “What are you doing here?” “Um, I’m picking up my brother. The nurse called and said he was sick.” Harry felt like he was going to be sick. “Wait, Ernest is your brother? Since when do you have a brother?” “Since about seven years ago, I guess. Wait, how do you know Ernest?” “I’m his teacher.” “You’re his what?” Louis exclaimed. Harry gulped. This was going to be a long year. --- Or, the AU where Louis and Harry were best friends growing up, but lost touch after Harry moved away. Ten years later, Harry has moved back to town, but he and Louis don't pick up where they left off.
Taken Over By The Feeling
by whyidontknow1 | angst | fluff| baker!harry | 53k After almost a year of increasingly troubling behavior, Louis agrees to let his sister live with him. It's a last resort before more drastic measures are taken by their mom. Harry Styles runs Given A Chance, a program for troubled and disadvantaged teens out of the bakery he owns. He offers the kids in his program what he believes they need to start on a different and better path for their lives. Louis learns all too quickly that Harry's goodwill does not extend to him. Only because he happens to remind Harry of an ex he'd rather forget. It's not the smoothest of beginnings, but in the end Louis' own issues might be the real problem.
Haven't You Heard 
by allwaswell16 for HL Christmas and New Year Fanfiction | Christmas fluff | 8k Harry Styles has been in love with Louis Tomlinson since they were eighteen. After six years together, Harry is ready to propose to the love of his life. The holidays strike him as the perfect time for a romantic proposal, but his well-meaning friends and family (including his self-appointed best friend, Niall) seem to thwart him at every turn. Or the four times Harry tries to propose, and the one time he gets it right.
If My Yesterday is a Disgrace, Tell Me That You'll Still Recall My Name 
by Trytoescapeit for HL Christmas and New Year Fanfiction | 16k The boy, right now in front of Harry, most definitely has familiar blue eyes and the same thin lips. Those lips. Small, bitten things that are so close to splitting. All he can think of is a chorus of his name. Louis, Louis, Louis, and the name means nothing to him until the boy looks up. OR Harry and Louis are childhood friends for only a year when Louis moves out of town. Fast forward to the future and Harry is a used-to-be rich kid who cut off his family's inheritance to build a life of his own and Louis owns the small cafe that's hiring. Harry spends three days trying to get Louis to remember him (because he never forgot)
Let Me Be Good For You
by onlyhuman | canon compliant | PWP | 12k His distress over the bun is nothing compared to the thrill Louis feels shoot up his spine at the outfit Harry’s donned. He’s changed into leather jeans that cling to his legs, hugging his thighs snugly. On top of it, a floaty, black sheer shirt is contouring his frame, doing absolutely nothing to hide his puffy nipples or the endless array of tattoos scattered across his torso. It’s Louis’ favourite outfit in the entire world. Or, Niall's only birthday wish is to go clubbing with his boys in Vegas. Harry ruins it all by wearing that god forsaken black sheer shirt.
Oh How I Hate This Red String Of Fate
by CalamityK for H/L Exchange 2016 | soulmates | angst | 13k Harry thought being able to see people’s strings die would be the worst thing about his gift, until at twenty-two he finally met the other end of his own. --------- Or that soulmate AU where Harry can see the red strings of fate that tie everyone together.
Like a boomerang
by youwilll | Groundhog Day AU | College AU | 48k AU in which Harry gets trapped in a lift, Louis gets stuck in a Wednesday, and it's always February 2nd. Until it isn't.
Life as we know it
by Rearviewdreamer | friends to lovers | kid!fic | 34k When a couple dies unexpectedly Harry and Louis are brought together to care for their daughter.
Counting the stars behind the clouds
by simplestardust | blind character | friends to lovers | 28k The problem wasn’t that Harry was blind. The problem was Harry himself. or, in which Louis plays keyboard as part of touring singer Harry's back-up band, and spends his time stuck between being oblivious and in denial, while Harry just wants to know how many stars there are in the night sky.
Head head heart
by Anonymous for Sub Harry Fic Fest | canon compliant | BDSM | Dom/Sub | 11k After Dunkirk has wrapped filming, Harry struggles with his inability to reach subspace. He tries taking the matter in his own hands before Louis intervenes with a plan of his own.
Reduce Me To A Pleading Cry (Break The Skin and Tantalize)
by Anonymous for Sub Harry Fic Fest | BDSM | Dom/Sub | CEO!Harry | 37k As the CEO of Styles & Styles, Harry Styles cuts a brooding and handsome figure at the helm of a very successful business. His reputation for intensity is well known, but you would be intense, too, if you had to work numbers all day, give countless orders, and conduct endless meetings. When all you really want to do at night--ache to do--is give away the reins, let someone else make the decisions, be ordered around for once, just--let go. Harry has reached his breaking point when one touch from a man whose very stance commands attention leads him back to a place he thought he’d never return. Or Harry is a broody submissive boss, Louis is a natural dom who works in the mail room at Styles & Styles, Niall is a matchmaking oracle, and a slender, dark haired man stands mute at the coffee stand encouraging others to spill their secrets.
(I didn't mean to) fall in love tonight 
by zouisclimax | High School AU, mpreg | 35k Harry texts him back a thumbs up emoji before leaning forward and throwing up again. He groans, but stands after he’s done, wiping his mouth with toilet paper, and flushing the toilet. He washes his mouth out as best as he can before steeling himself and heading back to class, trying his best not to cry. He tells himself that there is no point in worrying when he doesn’t even know if there is anything to worry about yet. He still feels sick. [or, the American boarding school AU where Harry's infatuated with Louis and one night flips his whole world upside-down]
With your love we could breathe underwater
by luminescents for HL summer fic exchange | fantasy | Mermaid!Harry | 28k Harry’s brow furrows, a look of confusion spreading over his face. “But I am real. I exist, see,” he says, raising a hand out of the water and wiggling his fingers at Louis. Louis finds himself relaxing a bit. Harry seems harmless really. And he’s quite cute, for something that’s not supposed to exist. If Louis is indeed having a hallucination right now, at least it’s a cute one. AU where Harry is a mermaid, Louis is a human, and they both discover a lot more than they anticipated.
Sex Shop Fic Verse: It's My Pleasure To Introduce You  & Switch Out The Batteries
by LoadedGunn | Sex Shop AU | 8k Louis cannot help himself. He stretches a bit so he can whisper in Harry's ear, "That's what I'd do to you, when you're close to coming. Just think. You'll be so overwhelmed but you won't want it to end, not really, so I'll switch it to the seventh setting, give you just a few seconds to catch your breath but then it'll rock inside you, right against your spot, so hard you won't be able to breathe, but before you can finally come it'll stop again. How long do you think you could keep it there, just staying right on the edge?" "I couldn't," Harry whispers, definitely shivering now. "I just couldn't tease myself like that, I'd have to touch my cock. If I wanted to... I'd need someone to do it for me." Louis slips his hands from Harry's fingers to his wrist, where he clutches hard. "You would." Or, the AU where Louis is the most helpful sex shop salesperson in the history of sex shops, and Harry really was just looking for a vibrator with simple instructions (yet ended up getting a hands-on demonstration).
by istajmaal, LoadedGunn | BDSM | Dom/Sub | Daddy kink | Gangbang 88k Harry raises an eyebrow. "Sex dice?" "Yup," Louis nods. "You know the ones we sell, one die for a body part and the other for an action to perform on that… part." "Isn't that what old married couples buy from you to spice things up?" Louis frowns and opens his mouth to tell Harry off, but then he catches his absolutely dreamy expression and can only laugh. "Yes dear, we're just like any middle-aged married couple. Except for the fact that we're in our twenties and have a box full of bondage gear under our bed." Two years after meeting in a sex shop, Harry's just returning to Louis from a month-long tour in the States, and they come up with a wholesome bonding exercise.

As 10 melhores séries dos anos 1990
Nos anos 1990, quando serviços de streaming ainda eram inimagináveis, a televisão era a mídia que mais se expandia e os seriados estavam entre os produtos responsáveis por esse crescimento. Naquela época, as séries focavam mais no público jovem, mas o conteúdo podia ser assistido por toda a família. Para relembrar alguns títulos marcantes, a Bula reuniu em uma lista as dez melhores séries da década de 1990. A seleção foi baseada nos rankings divulgados pelo Rotten Tomatoes e pelo IMDb, sites norte-americanos especializados em cinema, com prioridade para os seriados que também fizeram sucesso no Brasil. Entre os principais, estão “Friends” (1994), de David Crane e Marta Kauffman; e “Arquivo X” (1993), de Chris Carter.
1 — Seinfeld (1989-1998), Larry David e Jerry Seinfeld
A série explora o humor nas situações cotidianas da vida e acompanha Jerry Seinfeld, um comediante stand-up que tenta ganhar a vida em Nova York, apesar dos problemas financeiros. Morando em um apartamento pequeno, ele recebe constantemente a visita de seus melhores amigos: o neurótico George, o excêntrico Kramer, e sua ex-namorada Elaine.
2 — Friends (1994 – 2004), David Crane e Marta Kauffman
“Friends” retrata a vida de seis jovens amigos que lutam para progredir em Nova York, durante os anos 1990. Rachel é a garota mimada que deixa o noivo no altar para viver com Monica, uma amiga dos tempos de escola sistemática e apaixonada por culinária. Ross é um paleontólogo que foi abandonado pela esposa, Joey é um ator iniciante e o sarcástico Chandler esconde sua profissão de todos. O grupo se completa com Phoebe, uma massagista excêntrica e vegetariana.
3 — Os Simpsons (1989 — Hoje), Al Jean, Mike Scully e George Meyer
Como uma sátira do estilo de vida da classe média norte-americana, a série acompanha a vida da família Simpson, que vive na cidade fictícia de Springfield. O pai, Homer, é um inspetor de segurança apaixonado por cerveja e casado com a dona de casa Marge. Eles têm três filhos: o rebelde Bart, a menina-prodígio Lisa, e a caçula Lisa, ainda bebê.
4 — Arquivo X (1993 – 2002), Chris Carter
Os agentes do FBI Fox Mulder e Dana Scully são os investigadores do Arquivo X, um acervo de casos não solucionados de atividades paranormais. Enquanto Mulder acredita que os casos envolvem uma conspiração do governo para esconder a existência de alienígenas, Scully é uma médica cética, designada para fazer análises científicas das descobertas de Mulder.
5 — Twin Peaks (1990-1991), David Lynch e Mark Frost
Na pacata cidade de Twin Peaks, a bela estudante Laura Palmer aparece morta à beira de um lago, enrolada em um saco plástico. Na autópsia, fica comprovado que ela foi brutalmente violentada antes de ser assassinada. O agente do FBI Dale Cooper é convocado para comandar a investigação e descobre que Laura escondia muitos segredos de sua família.
6 — Anos Incríveis (1988-1993), Neal Marlens e Carol Black
Já adulto, Kevin Arnold narra as histórias de sua adolescência nos Estados Unidos, no final da década de 1960, época de muitas transformações sociais no país. Além de seus dramas familiares, Kevin fala sobre as aventuras que viveu ao lado de seus melhores amigos do colégio: o inteligente Paul; e a bela Winnie, por quem ele era apaixonado.
7 — Três é Demais (1987-1995), Jeff Franklin
Após perder a esposa, Pâmela, em um acidente de carro, o repórter Daniel Ernest Tanner, mais conhecido como Danny, precisa de ajuda para cuidar de suas três filhas: a adolescente D.J., Stephanie e a recém-nascida Michelle. Então, ele convoca seus dois melhores amigos: o divertido Joey Gladstone e o galã roqueiro Jesse Karsopolis, o irmão mais novo de Pâmela.
8 — Lei & Ordem (1990-2010), Dick Wolf
Cada episódio de “Lei & Ordem” acompanha a resolução de um crime ocorrido na cidade de Nova York. Os casos são mostrados a partir de dois pontos de vistas diferentes. Na primeira parte, os detetives investigam as pistas e prendem os suspeitos. Na segunda, o foco muda para os tribunais, onde promotores tentam incriminar os réus, mas nem sempre obtêm sucesso.
9 — Um Maluco no Pedaço (1990-1996), Andy e Susan Borowitz
A série conta a história de Will, um jovem enviado por sua mãe para a casa dos tios Vivian e Philip, que levam uma vida luxuosa num bairro nobre da Califórnia. A mãe de Will deseja que ele tenha um futuro melhor. Mas, por ser um garoto de origem humilde e não se importar com os estudos, Will vive se comportando de maneira inadequada, o que acaba envergonhando seus tios e primos.
10 — Buffy: A Caça-Vampiros (1997-2003), Joss Whedon
Buffy Summers, uma adolescente de 15 anos, descobriu ainda cedo que não era uma garota comum. Ela é uma das escolhidas para proteger o mundo e lutar contra o mal, uma caça-vampiros. Após ser treinada por seu guardião, Giles, ela enfrenta perigosos vampiros e demônios com a ajuda dos amigos Xander e Willow. Ao mesmo tempo, Buffy tenta ser uma estudante normal do ensino médio.
