Far From The Tree by AlwaysAqua

This is part of the @popularryculture fic fest. Read the entire collection here.

Words: 28,425

Relationship: Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson

Characters: Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Jay Tomlinson, Anne Cox, Troy Austin

Additional Tags: Hurt/Comfort, AngstFriends to Lovers, No Smut, Mentions of homophobia, some homophobic language, Louis' Dad Is NOT A Good Guy, There Is A Lot Of Emotional Abuse, Fashion Designer Louis, Famous Louis, Non-Famous Harry, Best Friends, POV Alternating, Slow Burn, I Feel Like I Should Be Better At Tagging Things, Tags Are Hard, my apologies, For all of this, Popularry Culture Fic Fest, Based Off Of Kelly Clarkson's Song Piece by Piece, Jay’s Death Does Have A Significant Role In This, Minor Character Death

Summary:

“I love you, you know that, right?” Louis asked with a shaky voice and a delicate hand placed across his chest. He had seen Louis place a hand on his chest hundreds of times as a way to remind himself to breathe evenly.

“I know.” Harry tried to keep the sadness from his smile. He couldn’t recall how many times in their lives they’d had this exact conversation, but somewhere between the five-hundredth time and now, its meaning had changed for Harry entirely. Still, now was not the time to go into all of that. In fact the time never seemed right, so once again Harry swallowed down the ever-present dull ache his heart felt for Louis. “Love you, too, Louis.”

“You’re my best friend,” Louis smiled softly.

“And you’re mine.”

“For forever?” Louis asked, voice small.

“For always.” __________

Or, Harry and Louis have been best friends since diapers (twenty-some years ago) and somewhere in the middle of Harry always picking up the mess that Louis' father has habitually left in his wake, Harry accidentally fell in love.

**Author’s note: I probably over-tagged this but I figured better safe than sorry. If anyone reads this as feels like chatting, please come talk to me. I’m here!

This fic is for anyone who has survived being hurt by someone who didn’t know how to love them.

Annual Writing Self-Evaluation 2018

@lululawrence tagged any writers that wanted to do this and since it’s the first year that I’ve posted anything, I think it’d be great to start tracking my progress.

ALL FICS MUST HAVE POSTED ON AO3 IN 2018

1. Number of stories (including drabbles) posted to AO3: 5!

2. Word count posted for the year: 21737

3. List of works published this year (in order of posting):

See it in Your Eyes

Fixing to Thrill

Does it Look Devious or Something?

Get Off and Vote

The Undone and the Divine

4. Fandoms I wrote for: One Direction

5. Pairings: Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson

6. Story with the most:

Kudos: Get Off and Vote

Bookmarks: The Undone and the Divine

Comments: Does it Look Devious or Something?

7. Work I’m most proud of (and why): The Undone and the Divine was my first attempt at writing smut as the main focus of a story. It took a completely different direction than I had intended, but I am really happy with how it turned out.

8. Work I’m least proud of (and why): Does it Look Devious or Something? Of the fics that I wrote this year, I struggled with this one the most. It was written for a 1000 Feelings prompt and I struggled for the longest time to come up with a plot to fill the prompt. I had about 6 different ideas but none of them really stuck. Finally I just had to go with the best of the worst. I got a bit burnt out writing this, so I rushed the ending. It still bothers me that Harry doesn’t get off at the end of it, but I had no interest in continuing the fic.

9. A favorite excerpt of your writing: From Get Off and Vote

“Wait!” Louis blurts out “I’ll share mine.” then slaps a hand over his mouth when he realizes how wrong that came out. Sometimes he just has no filter. The man picks his head up and turns toward the voice that just called out. “Um… share?” The employees behind the counter overheard Louis’ outburst and pause, comically frozen while waiting for the awkward encounter to play out. “I mean you can have mine.” Louis stretches out his hand holding the freebie. The awkwardness of the situation is palpable, but Louis just can’t seem to stop. He hates seeing such a beautiful face marred by disappointment. “I mean, If you really want. I was gonna buy something else anyway…Or you know, we could share, too, if you’re up for it.” “Thanks for the offer, but you earned it. I should’ve been earlier. And I’d take you up on the offer to share, but I usually need a few dates first.” The man winks.

10. Share or describe a favorite review you received: @lululawrence had the best response when I posted Get Off and Vote. It made my day when it made one of her monthly rec lists!

11. A time when writing was really, really hard: This might make no sense, but I discovered that it’s difficult to write when I have other important tasks that I’m also procrastinating. This summer while studying for the GRE I had a fic in the works but every time I’d sit down to write, I’d panic that I should be studying instead. But then I’d get so anxious that I would neither study nor write.

12. A scene or character you wrote that surprised you: Fixing to Thrill. I was surprised that I managed to fill a prompt about car engines when I don’t know much about cars. It’s also the first fic that I had to do any research on and I’m happy with how it turned out.

13. How did you grow as a writer this year: While writing over the past few months, I’ve focused on adding descriptions and emotions. I want my stories to be more immersive and have more depth, rather than just showing what the characters are doing.

14. How do you hope to grow next year: I want to have a beta edit my works next year. I’m pretty shy and it’s hard for me to ask for help, but I think it will really improve my writing. Also, I’ve stopped myself from entering fic fests because of required betas and I don’t want that to hold me back.

15. Who was your greatest positive influence this year as a writer (could be another writer or beta or cheerleader or muse etc etc): @suddenclarityharry @lululawrence and the @1000feelingsfics challenge are really what inspired me to start writing and posting my fics. Thank you for moderating such a unique fic challenge. Also @pocketsunshineharry made me smile when my fics have been included on their weekly fic recs

16. Anything from your real life show up in your writing this year: Surprisingly very little. I can’t think of any off the top of my head.

17. Any new wisdom you can share with other writers: Even if you just write fics for fun, learning about techniques that professional writers use can really improve writing. If there’s one aspect of writing that you want to work on, there’s probably technique that can help. For me, I always struggled with writing longer stories. A google search led me to story beats. It’s a more structured way to plan stories (rather than just having a basic intro/build up/climax/conclusion structure like they teach in school) and it’s helped expand my plot development and improve the pacing of my fics.

18. Any projects you’re looking forward to starting (or finishing) in the new year: I have a fic for @popularryculture fic fest that was super fun to write and will be posted in January. I have a few wips that i’m excited for, mainly my werewolf fic, although it really doesn’t have much of a plot yet

19. Tag some writers whose answers you’d like to read: @flamboyantdaddy @saffiew00 @domestic-harry

Pop Culture Fic Rec

Hi everyone! I’ve been wanting to do something like this for a while and have been inspired to finally do it after hearing about the Popularry Culture Fic Fest ( @popularryculture )

I’d like to put together a Fic Rec for anyone who might be looking for an AU based on a favorite movie, TV show, book, video game, musical, play, song etc. Especially since there are so many wonderful pieces out there already!

If you know of a Fic that fits that description, whether you’ve written it or read it, please send it my way!

All I ask is

Title of Fic (bonus points for working links!)

Title of work the AU is based on

Patience since it’s likely going to take me some time

Thanks! 😊

#signal boost #pop culture fic rec #one direction #larry stylinson #movie aus #tv show aus #song aus #book aus #pop culture aus #please pass this along

It's the Climb by Anonymous

Words: 25031

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: One Direction (Band) Rating: Not Rated Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson Characters: Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Jay Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Original Female Character(s) Additional Tags: Alternate Universe, Alternate Universe - Hannah Montana Fusion, Hannah Montana AU, Louis gets the best of both worlds, if you get what I mean, famous/non-famous, Tennessee - Freeform, Fluff, Pining, Secrets, Secret Identity, Songwriting, No Smut, Alternate Universe - Farm/Ranch, Horses, Musician Louis, Singer Louis, Songwriter Louis

Summary:

Louis stretched out his back and turned around, startled to see the most beautiful man he’d ever encountered in his life riding towards him on a horse.

He had to still be asleep. This was one of those super weird dreams people had where the knight in shining armor (or in this case, red sleeveless flannel) literally rode up to them calling their name.

-

The Hannah Montana AU where Louis is a world famous punk rock singer with a stage name of William and Jay drags him back to Tennessee for the summer. In her attempt for Louis to get back to his roots, he just so happens to reconnect with Harry, and things never go quite as Louis expects them to.

If You're The Storm, Then I'm The Chaser (21651 words) by LiveLaughLoveLarry/ @loveislarryislove

Rating: Mature

Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply

Summary: An AU based on Ed Sheeran's song "New Man"

Louis is back in town for the first time since he and Harry broke up six months ago. He's not sure what would hurt more, if Harry has moved on or if he's still as torn up as Louis is. He never even considered that Harry would be acting like a completely different person. And maybe he really is as happy as he keeps insisting, but Louis really doesn't think so.

~*~*~*~

“Who are you and what have you done to Harry Styles?”

It sounds corny as fuck, and Harry bursts into laughter, but Louis means it. He barely recognizes Harry, every word out of his mouth sounding like it belongs to someone else. This isn’t him. This isn’t him at all.

“I’m the same person,” Harry says with a shrug. “I just get what I want now. And tonight, that means you.”

"This just isn't you,” Louis says, shaking his head. “This isn’t the Harry I lo – the Harry I knew at all.”

Harry stares at him for a long moment. “Maybe you didn’t know me as well as you thought,” he says at last.

Summary:

“I love you, you know that, right?” Louis asked with a shaky voice and a delicate hand placed across his chest. He had seen Louis place a hand on his chest hundreds of times as a way to remind himself to breathe evenly.

“I know.” Harry tried to keep the sadness from his smile. He couldn’t recall how many times in their lives they’d had this exact conversation, but somewhere between the five-hundredth time and now, its meaning had changed for Harry entirely. Still, now was not the time to go into all of that. In fact the time never seemed right, so once again Harry swallowed down the ever-present dull ache his heart felt for Louis. “Love you, too, Louis.”

“You’re my best friend,” Louis smiled softly.

“And you’re mine.”

“For forever?” Louis asked, voice small.

“For always.” __________

Or, Harry and Louis have been best friends since diapers (twenty-some years ago) and somewhere in the middle of Harry always picking up the mess that Louis' father has habitually left in his wake, Harry accidentally fell in love.

Summary: An AU based on Ed Sheeran's song "New Man"

Louis is back in town for the first time since he and Harry broke up six months ago. He's not sure what would hurt more, if Harry has moved on or if he's still as torn up as Louis is. He never even considered that Harry would be acting like a completely different person. And maybe he really is as happy as he keeps insisting, but Louis really doesn't think so.

~*~

“Who are you and what have you done to Harry Styles?” It sounds corny as fuck, and Harry bursts into laughter, but Louis means it. He barely recognizes Harry, every word out of his mouth sounding like it belongs to someone else. This isn’t him. This isn’t him at all.

“I’m the same person,” Harry says with a shrug. “I just get what I want now. And tonight, that means you.”

"This just isn't you,” Louis says, shaking his head. “This isn’t the Harry I lo – the Harry I knew at all.”

Harry stares at him for a long moment. “Maybe you didn’t know me as well as you thought,” he says at last.

I just wrote 1600 words in the last hour. That honestly the fastest I’ve written in a long while. I’m feeling pretty good about the pace of this fic though the clock is ticking!
