He couldn’t help but feel a tangible awareness of Harry standing right beside him, clad in nothing but wet shorts that were barely doing anything to hide his body. Zayn gave in and snuck a glance, watching the stream of water run over the curve of Harry’s pecs, gathering in a river between them.
He blinked when he noticed Harry watching his gaze. He was smiling, and he lifted a hand to his chest, letting one finger trail down the hard brown expanse of a nipple. Zayn stared, mesmerized.
“Zayn,” Harry said, a smile in his voice. “Would you like to kiss me?”
or, they’re all at a research station and zayn is struggling with guilt and shame. crustaceans abound

Baby, you were the love of my life. Maybe you don’t know what's lost ‘til you find it.
It’s not what I wanted, to leave you behind. Don’t know where you’ll land when you fly.
But, baby, you were the love of my life.

Zayn makes a hedgehog friend on his new farm and it changes his life in completely unexpected ways.
Week 2: Tight > Help me out of a jam? | Larry | M | fic post
Harry's tightened a jar beyond what he can open. He asks Louis for help, because Louis is always more than obliging.

Marionette by Anonymous | E | 2733 Harry is a vampire on the hunt. He doesn’t know that he’s not the top of the food chain.
Just a little taste by lunarheslwt | G | 3688 “Little dove,” Louis crooned, making Harry shiver a little, affected, “you’re shaking. Do you want to bite?” Harry stilled. He knew what Louis was asking. He knew Louis probably could sense how in dire need of comfort he was. He knew Louis was offering. And yet- “No,” he whispered, even as he felt the strong urge to let his lips trace the well-known path to the spot he usually bit into, “I could hurt you.” “Harry, my darling, you haven’t hurt me once in the numerous times you’ve needed to bite. Today will be no different. You know it’ll do you good.” Harry sucked his bottom lip between his teeth, torn. In the end, it was an offer he was too weak to resist. “So…do you want to? Little taste?” “Yeah,” Harry rasped out, “please.” Or, Harry is a vampire that comes home one night, grappling with the darkness that comes with being one. Louis offers him unwavering love, acceptance and the one thing he needs but is reluctant to ask for; permission to bite for the sake of comfort and safety seeking.
Nothing's Greater Than the Rush by therogueskimo | E | 8303 Good luck. That’s how whoever had turned him had signed off their little instruction manual, as though this was the most natural thing in the world. As though being a vampire - which Louis didn’t even know existed until he was one - was normal, something that happened every day. To survive being turned into a vampire, Louis must feed on the person he loves most. There's just one little problem: that person is his best friend, Harry, and Harry has no idea.
Liquid Gold by wabadabadaba | E | 9273 Harry’s original intention wasn’t to tease but he couldn’t stop himself. He leaned forward, dropping on his hands, and let his teeth graze Louis’ jaw. He delighted in Louis’ reaction- his breath hitched and was uneven, his body was pliant, and his eyes were already dilating. Harry moved his fangs from Louis’ jaw down to his neck, right over his jugular vein. Harry’s eyes rolled back as he smelled Louis’ blood- there was the bitter copper smell that all blood had with notes of something sweet. He applied the tiniest amount of pressure, enough for Louis to stop breathing all together, and licked the vein. He kissed it and pulled away from Louis completely. or, Louis has a biting kink and the only person he thinks can fulfill it is his vampire friend, Harry.
it's me and my plus one at the afterlife by mrsenjolras | T | 9322 It all starts because Liam Payne makes a stupid decision. Well, that’s not exactly true. Technically it starts when Louis turns 16 and becomes the Slayer, the chosen one to fight all evil forces in the world and to prevent the apocalypse, blah blah, major responsibility, saving the world, et cetera et cetera. But this time? This time Liam did something really, really dumb. [Or: Louis is the Slayer, Nick and Harry are vampires, and Liam and Niall make up the rest of the Scoobies.]
just a little rush, babe | G | 10296 “You know everything they say about Dracula? All that stuff I wrote in my paper?” Niall asks as he rips one of the glazed donuts in half. Harry hums. “It’s all bullshit. Real vampires do tomato juice cleanses and do yoga. Fuck.” Harry's a vampire who's awful at parallel parking, being scary, and being alone. He meets Niall walking home alone one night.
In This Room by thisonegoes | E | 17675 It’s his neck that first catches Zayn's eye and stops him in his tracks. A shirtless man with his back to him, his hands up in his hair, practically stumbling into the other humans dancing around him. It's a lovely neck. A Zarry Vampire AU. Happy Halloween.
Death Wish by Speechless | E | 22067 Louis hates vampires, he lives his life trying to kill as many as he can, night after night, year after year. He hates them. Then why the fuck is he kissing one? Again. “I mean it, Harry.” Louis says, into his mouth this time. “You need to get the fuck away from me.”
Scorpions et mandragores by Stria | E | 22934 Vampires were rich gents, well-versed in the unspoken rules of polite society, knowledgeable about an infinity of topics, ready to lend a hand in historiography debates. Vampires were charming, fashionable, mysterious. Vampires drank synth or donated blood, played nice with humans, didn’t bite anymore. Vampires were nice, non-threatening. What a load of bullshit. (Or, in a world where vamps have come out of the coffin, vampire Harry's tired to play nice with food, and gets obsessed with human Louis, fresh-faced and captivating.)

Unseen Varia - Profiles
(yaaay first of the new character profiles! Let's fill the Seconds in Command roster!)
Tumblr media
Zarria Albo
Basic Info:
Full Name: Zarria Albo
Nickname: Zarri, Z, that sicillian woman, The reaper, (Tyrs) executioner
Age: 44
Birthday: [IN PROGRESS]
Gender/Pronouns: cis female, she/her
Sexuality: undisclosed
Ethnicity: italian, siccilian specifically
Height: 185cm
Flametype: sun, secondary cloud and storm flame
Weapon of Choice: Scythe
Affiliation: Varia, Sun Division
Position: Second in Command
Languages: italian (mainly sicilian dialect, +SL), spanish, french, english
Strengths: collected, serious, intelligent, strategic, observant, combat, poker and other card games, alcohol tollerance
Weaknesses: way too serious most of the time, depressed, unhappy, cynical, pessimistic, fatalistic
Character Summary:
Zarria has been a part of the Varia when Tyr had still run the place. She saw the takeover by Xanxus and even then knew that this would only cause trouble. She is a very mellowed woman, someone who alway seems serious and to not know any fun, however this is simply her work persona and she is known to have an outgoing and fun personality off the clock. she is someone who does not tollerate bullshit and she often loses patience with the younger members who in her eyes do not take things serious enough, however she also is one of the few that notices and realizes the game Bel plays with Lorenzo. She loves to use her analytical mind and prowess, oftentimes less into combat and more into mindgames, however she does do her work as a support as required. While she isn't great in healing she does have the necesary flame to open the healing boxes she is provided. Under Tyr she was more of a fighter and front woman, but after Xanxus took over she decided to get less involved in the organisation. While she will always reinstate that it was a rightful death in duel, she still seems to harbor some personal feelings regarding Tyr that she never elaborates on.
Background:
Born in Siccily Zarria was early on involved with the mafia, as her parents were already working mafiosi. Growing up in a rough place full of violence, shootouts and turf wars she became a formidable fighter and an exceptional strategist. Early on she managed to make money by outsmarting others and beating them in games, getting a reputation among the townsfolk and get eventually scouted by none other than Tyr himself. Seeing the potential in her he decided to offer her a life as a trainee of the Varia, especially once her parents died and her sister got adopted into a family in north italy. She accepted and became his personal trainee for a good while, learning to use swords before she settled on using a scythe and becoming his executioner.
When Tyr was defeated she should've been angry and pissed and taken revenge but unlike others she accepted his defeat and subsequent death at the hands of Squalo. However she was a long time against accepting Xanxus as a new leader and quite unusual for him, he did not dare to get in a scuffle with her. It took her some time before she decided to get back into the organisation and she took position as Lussurias second in command, even though technically like Lorenzo she has the possibility to become an officer. However she does not see the point in it. Since then she has watched from the sidelines and given her quiet commentary on Xanxus leadership. In her time she managed to make friends with a few of the members and even found a way to get along with Lussuria.
Fighting Style:
Zarria is not someone who enjoys fighting as much as others. For a long time she has been an executioner so her work is to get the kill and that's it. She despises to fight more than she needs to when it comes to work for the Varia, but when she is personally invested in a fight she might just take the extra time. Her scythe has a few anker points that she can use to angle ant turn the blade, but she mostly uses her muscles and agility to peroperly hunt somebody. Her outrageous intellect and strategic thinking also allows her to often outsmart her opponents and catch them unaware.
Trivia:
Zarria likes to play all kinds of strategic games and finds enjoyment in winning. She has battled everyone of her fellow seconds in command in chess, with Lor and Jaque being closest to beating her, but never actually managing. Ser plays with her the most
Zarria refuses to sparr with other members unless it is someone who she believes can stand her Scythe. These include, Leo (battle was interrupted by her), Raphael (also interrupted by her), Jaque and Squalo. The moment she managed to land a hit on Leos torso she immideatly stopped to treat his wound
Zarrias scythe is in fact so sharp it is known to cut anything, which is one of the reasons she will not fight for fun or sparr. It would be way too dangerous.
She wears special metal capped boots to not slice her feet off when she kicks her scythes blade
She speaks the sicilian dialect almost exclusively and will tell people to deal with it if the can't understand her
She does NOT regard Ava as a swordsman, and she hates that his sword that he so atrociously calles "pride" was made from the blade that defeated Tyr. In her eyes that is deeply disrespectful
She has a pretty high alcohol tolerance and likes to go out into bars. She also enjoys food a lot, tho she dislikes overly sweet food
She has strong opinions but knows that it's a waste of time to always voice them. When asked however she will tell them.
Zarria lost all contact with her sister until she found out that she has become a part of the Luna Famiglia. While the two of them don't really have a relationship she is still thankful to Sergey for at least reassuring her that her sister is safe and taken care of
She has met Sergeys oldest sister Maria and has a soft spot for her, which is why she def would cosign Sergeys deep desire to get rid of Marias husband.
Her pupils are pretty much slits, like those of a snake which only gives her even more of an eerie vibe

Niall is perfectly happy in her dating life, always finding a reason to break things off before her relationships get serious. When she finally gets a chance with Harry, her dream girl, their friend Louis makes her promise to give her a real chance. The only problem is that Harry has a cat… and Niall is not a cat person. Instead of running like she usually does, Niall has to figure out how to live with an adorable menace. And when it starts to feel like love, Niall has to decide: Is she ready for the real thing?

After Harry’s Christmas plans fall through, she decides to surprise her best friend Nick in New York. Unfortunately, Nick decided to surprise her in San Francisco at the same time. When they realize what happened, they each resign themselves to staying and spending time in the other’s city. Harry tries to make the best of things, making elaborate plans to distract herself from feeling lonely, while Nick is just looking forward to her first real vacation from her hectic job in years. Neither of them will have the Christmas that they expected, but maybe they’ll each get the one that they need.

A little zarry snippet from my rom com fic 🥰
Harry found Zayn in the kitchen after he and Niall entered the house, the both of them having lagged behind slightly due to their conversation. Niall’s words were swirling around his head, not enough to make him doubt his decision but enough to make him stall slightly. “You alright, Haz? You’ve been acting weird since you got back from your study session.” “I’m fine, Z. Promise. Just been thinking a lot, that’s all,” he replied, leaning against the counter as Zayn grabbed some glasses from the cupboard. “Oh, yeah? Anything important?” Nothing major, just about how I have a crush on you and have been thinking of asking you out. “Just life things. Nothing that important. Um, you’re free tomorrow, right?” Harry asked, fiddling with his jumper as he stared at the floor. “Yeah, I should be. Why, what’s up?”

On twitter the other day they were debating ndas and how long they last and I swear I felt like I was back in 2014 reading this crap. The larries who were swearing up and down about how louis and Harry always see each other and the power of ndas were all under 24 years of age. They were kids when 1D ended but now swear by larrie. There are also a pocket full of zarries. It's all about what other anons have said, this is how they handle Harry and Louis's real life. It's a cult for them. I've seen some horrific things that reinforce some really vulgar stereotypes, such as Harry going to the Hampstead Pond. Many male stars are going through the same exact treatment, their gfs/wives are whores, relationships are fake, they are being held down by the powers that be, they are crying for help, this is not the real men they love, searching for ways they are gay, etc. All because instead of just saying these men are unobtainable and accepting this, appreciating their music or acting, they have to come up with some crazy conspiracy theories to make themselves feel better.
Harry and Taylor have been together for almost seven months now, it could be longer we don't know and there are still people who don't think they are in a relationship, because they are private. He was just as private with Camille. These very same people didn't think he was in a relationship with Olivia and there was a ton of proof, including court documents filed by Jason Sudekis, that they were in a relationship. Denial is one hell of a drug.
It's astonishing how easily they convince each other that this rumour or the other is established fact, with accounts like PR Anon and Larrie Thoughts viewed as oracles.

the most frustrating thing about the harry styles queerbaiting shit is like
these are the same people who claim to support closeted and unlabeled folks.
the hypocrisy.
and not to get too conspiratorial, buuuut
a lot of it feels like old 1d haters looking for a new reason to hate him. his musical style has expanded so much since 1d split that they can't make fun of him for writing bubblegum pop songs, they can't the same homophobic jokes they did before (and let's not kid ourselves - at least 80% of the hate levied at one direction was homophobic) so they have to find something to hate him for.
Actually this makes perfect sense, anon.
I am 100% on board with your analysis of why there seems to be such a huge focus on harry and his "queerbaiting" recently being related to finding another reason except his queerness to hate on him for. Because you're right, they used to hate 1D something fierce and if if it wasn't homophobic, it was sexist in nature.
Because as someone who was very heavily a part of the 1D fandom from the very beginning, I have been here for ALL of the conversations regarding the boys' sexualities and whether or not it was problematic to be a larry shipper. I think it's so fucking interesting that the narrative has gone from "harry can't be gay! look at all these women he likes!" to "harry can't be gay! we've never seen him date a man! he's doing it for attention" because like he's the same harry he's always fucking been.
Like, I remember having VIVID discussions with people about whether or not we should assume louis and harry are dating because the only difference between their interactions and the other ships' is that louis and harry were the only "stereotypical" looking gay couple of the bunch. Like, literally every other combination was not "gay" enough and that's why larries focus so much on this ship instead of LiLo or Lirry or Zouis or Ziam or Zarry etc and like that was the point where I was like "actually you're right this feels a little stereotypical atp" and also there were discussions at the time that just because harry said he doesn't mind dating men doesn't mean he IS dating louis.
and now it's like... we've all collectively forgotten that? We've forgotten that we used to discuss whether or not harry's gay ass is "proof" of larry and what gets me is that people just seem to not realize or care to put these two things together and see how mayyyyyybe, just mayyyyyybe Harry doesn't feel comfortable enough to be *publically* queer because of the way it was commodified and denied and discussed so intensely during such a pivotal moment of life for him (like.. he was a teenager for 3 out of the 5 years 1D was around bro).
But not only that but he HAS confirmed he's part of the community but that he is unlabelled and unlabelled is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT VALID AND OKAY AND SHOULD NOT BE SEEN AS LESSER OF AN IDENTITY THAN LABELLED ONES ARE. Literally all that means is that none of the labels we have feel right for you and that's okay. It doesn't invalidate the diversity of experience you may or may not have nor does it get rid of the gay ass feelings u have for people of the same gender/sex as you. I don't understand this insistence that harry is not queer because he doesn't like labels and would rather just date a person than their genitals???? it definitely has to be related to society's hatred of "girly" things because if there is one thing harry is not, it's a man's man.
idk i just don't even care that fucking much about harry styles dude, I just care about society accepting "less than perfect" queers as queers without making us constantly have to prove that we're queer. let us live our lives as WE SAY WE ARE instead of making us prove our queerness to you everytime we exist outside of your narrow little stereotypes of us.
