50 fic recommendations for u :)
i was inspired by @allwaswell16 who does monthly fic recommendations (and much, much more)! i do not have the executive function abilities to do that - i admire her for being able to do so, and just in general, really, but i am in the middle of making a fav fics and fav ao3 writers masterpost, and i’ve *been* in the middle of that since december lol. so, i figured, for now i’d just do a smaller post of fics (this was originally intended to be a *much* shorter post) i’ve been reading these past few weeks that i’ve been loving & fics that i’ve been rereading as well!

UNIVERSITY FIC REC, Part II: Below you will find more fics that take place in college. (Part I)
📖 Underneath It All by @peachypetalhazz (394k)
Enemies to friends to lovers AU where Louis is a cliché bad boy that Harry can’t seem to get rid of.
📖 there's no fair in farewell by @so-why-let-your-voice-be-tamed (218k)
When Harry and Louis, two Cupids who have been bringing people together for decades, are tasked with making Soulmates Liam and Zayn fall in love, it proves to be much harder than expected. But maybe, just maybe, that isn’t such a bad thing after all.
📖 blue moon by @aquietlarrie (152k)
or the self indulgent 50’s au where i wanted a safe space to explore the culture, history, and sexuality of being gay in a time when it was extremely difficult to do so. includes, lots of questionable dancing, healing your inner child, and one heck of an emotional ride.
📖 Never Be by @cherrystreet (117k)
The one where Harry Styles moves to Connecticut from England for nine months as a part of a study abroad program, and he just so happens to move in with Louis Tomlinson and family.
📖 Pour Your Heart Out by @hrrytomlinson (92k)
Louis is his soulmate. Or at least Harry thinks he is. Louis feels the same as Louis. But there are a lot of people named Louis in the world and this Louis might not be the Louis. It’s besides the point though, because Harry knows he can’t allow himself to get close to any boys. He just can’t and he’s told himself this multiple times. He has to simply stay away from Louis Tomlinson. But he can’t. Harry Styles can never stay away from Louis Tomlinson. It’s physically impossible for him to.
📖 knock knock, i love you by @thelovejandles (86k)
Harry and Louis get kicked out of a statistics exam for passing a knock knock joke note, and subsequently fall in love. Harry's a virgin, there's a cat, a hot cocoa date, a lot of sex, even more knock knock jokes, and everything is lovely and happy.
📖 Are There Second Chances? by @kissyboystyles (85k)
the most eventful twenty-four days of Louis Tomlinson's college career.
📖 A Distant Hazy Light by @greenfeelings (76k)
Life’s pretty ordinary for Harry. He lives with his best friend, got into university just like he’s planned, and manages to support himself just fine for an unbonded omega. If he sustains that lifestyle by getting paid to help alphas through their rut every now and then, that’s nothing to be hung up on. Until he’s hired by an alpha that turns everything upside down. Or, Harry’s working on taking Louis’ walls down, until he builds his own up.
📖 Bikestrike by @thinlinez (68k)
What would you do if you saw someone riding your bike, which had been stolen weeks before, across campus? Omega Harry chose to show no mercy. He didn't know it would all lead him to his own demise.
📖 always you (i should have known) by @28goldens (60k)
or the one where harry and louis cant stand each other and fake date to make someone jealous.
📖 Start A Revolution From My Bed. by @rainbowsandlovehl (57k)
Louis is ready to live on his own, in a dorm, in a new city. He is ready to make new friends, have fun and study a little. But he is not ready for Harry, his pretentious roommate who is out to ruin Louis' sleep and make his dorm life a complete hell.
📖 Love's On The Line, Is That Your Final Answer? by @moonhusbands (54k)
Harry can’t believe it when Louis, the boy he’s always had a tempestuous rivalry with, asks him to be his boyfriend. Well, pose as his boyfriend, that is—for a new television game show in which young couples are quizzed on how well they know each other for a jackpot of thirty grand. Reluctantly, Harry agrees—because he's got student loans to pay off, hasn't he? What's the harm? And he can totally deal with keeping his secret thing for Louis under wraps too. This is all just to win some money. It's fine. No big deal. What could possibly go wrong? Well, everything. Obviously.
📖 The First Year by @parmahamlarrie (46k)
When Louis Tomlinson was assigned a first year student to be his roommate for his final year at the University of Manchester, his expectations were low. All he needed was a cheap place to sleep and keep his stuff amidst his nights out, willing his brain to forget his past. He never expected Harry Styles to become his eclectic, sweet, and cuddly best friend. That was never the plan.
📖 your lips in the low light by @givesuethemoon (20k)
Set over the course of one night, at one fateful frat party. Louis and Harry find that there are not many things they will ever need more than each other.
📖 getting yourself wet for me by @dreamersdivin-headfirst (10k)
frat boys take on watersports
📖 my heart's against your chest, your lips pressed to my neck (i'm in love now) by @bottomhaztoplou (8k)
Five times Louis gives Harry a courting gift and one time Harry reciprocates.
📖 Hea(van) Is A Place on Earth with You by @insightfulinsomniac (6k)
University students Harry and Louis want to spend some alone time together — the problem is, both of their respective roommates are fast asleep. Harry solves that problem with some blankets, a secluded parking space, and his beloved beater van, Belinda.
📖 Lost In This Craze For You by @larrysballetslippers (4k)
Louis thinks he is incapable of making his boyfriend come, but Harry just needs a little more from him.

✤ Pet Cat Fics ✤
A series of posts with the top five fics of each category by kudos plus five more hidden gems from that category! Remember to leave kudos and a comment on the fics you enjoyed to show your appreciation! You can find our other recs here.
- Top 5 H/L Fics -
1️⃣ The One Where Harry Really Doesn't Have Ten Cats by LoadedGunn (T, 10k)
"Mate, you can dress him up in a tutu and upload it to YouTube, I don't care as long as he's alive when I come back."
Harry gasps. "How did you know I have three tiny cat tutus?"
"You sound like the crazy type."
Or, the AU where Harry is a pet-sitter for the rich and famous, and Louis is rich and famous.
2️⃣ Emperor's New Clothes by sunsetmog / @magicalrocketships (E, 92k)
The fact that Louis’s most precious belonging was a cat with a face like thunder and an uncanny ability to cover every single inch of Louis’s clothing with cat hair was something that Louis chose not to think about too much.
or: Harry’s a pop star and Louis isn’t, and there’s a non-disclosure agreement where there used to be a relationship.
3️⃣ Thought The Song Was Sung by @100percentsassy (E, 12k)
Louis never auditioned for the X-Factor. Years later, Harry's just another gay ex-boybander who lives alone with his cat... until Niall decides to take matters into his own hands and set up a profile for Harry on a dating website.
4️⃣ I hear you calling in the dead of night by Thelonelycoast (M, 72k)
No one really notices Marcel Styles. In fact, Marcel’s so invisible that if his teachers don’t call on him in lessons - and they rarely do - Marcel can go whole days without speaking to anyone other than his mum, his sister, Gemma, his cat, Dusty and the school librarian, Alma. And if he just so happens to have a tiny, miniscule crush on the footie captain, Louis Tomlinson, well, that’s no one’s business but his own. Until Louis notices him back...
5️⃣ knock knock, i love you by beautlouis / @thelovejandles (E, 86k)
“Well,” Louis says, searching for something to relieve this tension. “I think if a bloke gets kicked out of his stats exam for a knock knock joke, he deserves to hear the punchline, yeah?”
“Oh!” Harry says, beaming. “I forgot where we left off, what was it again?” He looks overjoyed to be exchanging a shit joke.
“Ah, you said knock knock, then I said who’s there, and then you said Noah,” Louis supplies helpfully. He hates that he's actually curious about the rest of the joke. “So, Noah who?”
“Oh,” says Harry, in a much different tone, dragging out the syllable. He looks bashful now. Louis cannot keep up with this boy, it's going to kill him. “Right, well.” He shuffles his feet. Fuck, what kind of knock knock joke gets a boy nervous? “Noah a good place we could get something to eat?”
[Harry and Louis get kicked out of a statistics exam for passing a knock knock joke note, and subsequently fall in love. Harry's a virgin, there's a cat, a hot cocoa date, a lot of sex, even more knock knock jokes, and everything is lovely and happy.]
HIDDEN GEMS:
💎 The Changer and the Changed by @homosociallyyours (M, 59k)
It’s the spring of 1977 and Harry Styles has just moved to New York City after graduating college. She knows she’s a lesbian. She just needs to figure out how to meet other lesbians.
Louis Tomlinson works at a popular women’s bookstore in the Lower East Side, Womon’s Direction, where she spends her days reading feminist literature, writing poetry, exchanging friendly barbs with her boss Niall, and dreaming of finding someone to love.
When Harry and Louis meet, their connection is instantaneous. Slowly but surely, Louis welcomes Harry into her community of women. Stonewall veteran and old school butch Niall; Liam, a land dyke who’s moved to the city for love; and Zayn, a lesbian musician who’s been ostracized by a vocal part of women’s community for being trans, welcome Harry with open arms, ready to help her find her place in New York City’s bustling lesbian scene.
It’s a time of growth for everyone involved.
💎 Treat Mothman With Kindness by flowercrownfemme (T, 16k)
“Does anyone else ever think mothman is... Kinda hot?” “No?” Zayn squinted, frowning. “Louis? The fuck?”
In which Louis, Liam, Niall and Zayn are amateur cryptozoologists and Harry is the creature they find in the woods of a small north-western town. ft. lots of glitter and shrieking and a whole shed full of lesbian cats.
💎 Forever You'll Be There by my Side by LadyLondonderry / @londonfoginacup (G, 4k)
If asked, Harry would say that he doesn't live alone; he lives with his lovely and intelligent cat Starberry. He lives on a street full of witches and wizards that he sees briefly before they apparate off their front steps, and his sister floos by unannounced quite often. If asked, Harry would say he lives a rather content life.
If asked, Harry would not say being practically run over by his new neighbour the first time they meet is a positive thing. He may even say that he wishes that new neighbour would stop following him around and let him do his produce shopping in peace.
💎 meow or never by velvetnoodle / @femslashy (T, 3k)
Harry is having a terrible, no good, very bad day.
He’s holed himself up in the back of the university library, stealing an entire sofa for himself. The fact that no one has said anything to him about it just goes to show how much his feelings must be on display. That’s nothing new; Harry’s always worn his heart on his sleeve. And cried easily. Not that he’s crying yet, but he’s close. It’s been a right shit day, and Harry just wants to go back to his room and bury his face in Evie’s soft fur. Unfortunately, he no longer has that luxury.
When Harry is forced to choose between getting kicked out of student housing or giving up his cat, a moment of self-pity leads to the discovery of a third, and much more appealing, option
💎 Zoey by @wabadabadaba (G, 2k)
Harry knew his first name, but he liked the way Dr. Tomlinson sounded more. Harry watched as Louis unclasped her harness and set it aside and pet her back and under her chin. Louis kissed the top of her head and murmured sweet nothings to her- mostly about how pretty she is and how well behaved she is. Harry wished it was him.
or Harry has a huge crush on his cat's veterinarian and finally decides to do something about it.

Hi, do you have a list of feel good fics with a bit of humour? Thank you for all your fic recs. 😊
Ah, yes... it feels like a good time for that sort of fic, does’t it? Here’s a bunch I really like.
Tumblr media
Secrets, Santa? By @indiaalphawhiskey (E, 19K) disaster gay Harry in all his bumbling, endearing glory still manages to make his incredibly hot boss (Louis) fall for him. This one has snappy dialogue, great internal monologue, and scorching smut. I’d expect nothing less from this author.
Single Bells Ring by nonsensedarling / @absoloutenonsense (M, 17K) This was so much fun and the banter was absolutely brilliant. I loved their back and forth and how Harry kept Louis on the edge, never being 100% sure Harry was into him, until the very end.
Literally Making Love by Brooklyn_Babylon / @twopoppies (E, 30K)
Holding up one of the android's eyes to the workshop’s windows, he smiled as the light picked up the gold flecks in the pale green of his irises. Louis had always paid attention to even the tiniest details.
--
All Louis intended to do was rescue someone in need from loneliness. He had no idea it would be himself.
The Section by bananaheathen (M, 11K) Listen… I just discovered this author and I LOVE them. If you liked These Inconvenient Fireworks, read this now! It’s got all of the OT5 friendship, humor, and banter, without the heartbreaking angst. I loved this one.
Fine Line by bananaheathen (T, 5K) Have I mentioned I love this author? The dialogue and banter in this is top notch. Just a delightful fic that feels perfect at 5K, and at the same time I wish there was 100K more.
Ain’t That A Kick In The Head! by keysmashlesbian, wreckingtonlinson (karasunonolibero) (T, 22K) I’ve recc’d this before, but the relationship between the 5 of them is so well done and so funny. Plus, Harry as a disaster gay never fails to make me giggle.  (Link is to a download).
anything you ask and more by orphan_account (M, 19K) This fic is honestly so funny. Louis is both a disaster and brilliant, Harry is equally as ridiculous, and the whole fic is sexy and a lot of fun. History teacher Louis. 
Battle Cry by velvetoscar (NR, 21K) I’m always here for disaster gay Harry. This one has him as a neurotic romantic trying not to fall for his biggest rival. Beautiful writing, funny, and just plain fun.
Right Side of the Wrong Bed by eyesofshinigami (E, 11K) Louis’ internal monologue makes this one so quirky and fun. It’s just a lighthearted meet cute with a dash of some good smut
to hell with romancing by @bottomlinsons (E, 8K) This is worth reading for Harry’s internal monologue alone. This is just a funny fic that morphs into a sweet and really sexy one.
let me make a thing of cream and stars by missandrogyny (E, 25K) This fic is just lighthearted and fun and I love the way they tease each other in this one. 
like a simile, i paint suggestive pictures (of me and you) by dangerbears (15K, NR) I love the bantering in this one, it’s so funny! Plus it has great Nouis and Zouis friendships. 
gorgeous (it makes me so mad) by resurrectdead / @artxghoul (E, 30K) The banter is great, lots of flirting, Harry’s a bit of a disaster gay, the smut scenes are super hot. It’s such a fun read.
Laundry Room by beautlouis / @thelovejandles (E, 10K) I re-read this one recently and it’s great internal monologue, sweet flirting, and a super hot smut scene!
Help! (I Need Somebody) by orphan_account (E, 2K) This one is just hilarious and even though I’ve read it multiple times, I still laugh every time. Probably because it feels like something that would have actually happened!
Be My Little Good Luck Charm by 100percentsassy (E, 35K) First of all, great pacing and sexual tension. Snappy, witty dialogue. Sexy smut scenes. I’ve read this one a few times and like it more each time. 
Is This Seat Taken? by Lainy122 (E, 36K) Famous/not famous. Light, funny, I really enjoyed how Louis keeps Harry on his toes throughout this one. 
24K Magic by @justalittlelouislove (E, 33K) This author writes such good dialogue – always snappy and sharp. I really, really enjoy this one and have read it multiple times.
On the Go by phdmama / @phd-mama (T, 3K) One of my favorite hilarious mix up meet cute fics. Such a cute one.
i try my best to unwind (nothing but you on my mind) by resurrectdead / @artxghoul (E, 16K) this is honestly just pure smut and silliness. But I love the way this author writes their banter. Good times.
like an animal (i wanna feel you from the inside) by @bottomlinsons (E, 4K) Just a funny little crack fic involving a piercing and an embarrassing trip to the hospital. I love this one.
Change My Needs by zarah5 (M, 13K) Even writing fluffy cuteness, this author wins me over every time. One of the few writers who doesn’t make me miss smut and a fic that make me want to fall in love all over again.
pink skin by @jaerie (E, 4K) Smutty, yes, But also really funny and sweet. 
Have a Nice Trip by @kingsofeverything (E, 6K) I didn’t know I needed horny Harry tripping on ‘shrooms, but I definitely did! This is really funny and sweet. Definitely a quarantine pick me up.
It’s the Little Things in Life that Mean the Most by @realitybetterthanfiction (T, 8K)  I really adore this shapeshifter fic and the way the boys take care of each other. This author always writes terrific dialogue and it really makes this one a pleasure.

FIC VENN DIAGRAM - FIRST TIMES / HISTORICAL / MISUNDERSTANDING / SMALL TOWN or FARM
My love language is a Venn Diagram and I love @twopoppies a lot. I also happen to think she is a bananas talented writer (on top of being beyond talented as an artist, who is she to be so blessed). So I’ve decided to honor her fics in the way that I know how: WITH VENN DIAGRAMS.

hii! I'm not having the best night and I felt like compiling a list of my favorite fics that never fail to make me smile when I'm down or have provided me a beautifully worded escape for a while :) 
disclaimer: I will list the specifics for those interested, but there is a mix of bl / bh so be aware of that please. these are the fics that make ME happy and I want to spread some positivity for the talented authors that have gotten me through some rough times, so please leave any negativity out of it and stick to your own preferences. 
thank you and happy reading! ♡
✰ enter the rose garden (GA, 10k, imp. b!L) by @angelichl
Soft heats make omega Louis clingy. Enter alpha Harry. 
✰ before we knew (E, 40k, b!L) by @risthebrave / falsegoodnight 
Louis has been skeptical of soulmates for years so it seems like fate when he finally bumps into the owner of the obnoxiously large signature printed into his skin since age sixteen: Harry Styles, a human rights attorney who is firmly against soulmates.
✰ baby we could be enough (I'll make this feel like home) (E, 57k, b!H) 
“Did you clean the table?” Harry asks Louis once Rose is done speaking, now occupied with trying to see if she can reach over and touch Harry’s hair from where she’s sat. At Louis’ nod, Harry frowns. “You didn’t have to do that. You’re my guests here, I could’ve dealt with it later.”
Louis just smiles easily, though, adjusting Rose on his lap so that she’s facing Harry better. She manages to tug on a loose wave of hair, and she makes a noise of triumph that both Louis and Harry smile at.
“I don’t mind,” Louis murmurs to Harry, even though he’s looking at Rose. “This one here seemed very excited to talk to you.”
And, okay. Harry can’t help but think of how domestic this feels, all of a sudden.
[harry is a photographer who's trying to find his place. louis is a single father with a smile that feels like home.]
✰ when you touch me, paint me like a van gogh (E, 4k, b!L) by TurismoEmocional 
(Harry has been away for a month. He comes home to Louis in the middle of the night - dramatics and smut ensue.) 
✰ undone, undress (E, 134k, b!H) by @angelichl
Louis' new roommate is shy, skittish, and flinches at the slightest sounds. He's an art major who gets drunk on cherry wine, wears lacy lingerie, and shows up late at night covered in bruises that blossom across his skin like flowers.
Obviously something is wrong. Louis just doesn't know what it is.
personal note: this fic is amazing and has been very validating for me, but please make sure to check the tags and author’s note for any possible triggers before reading and make the best choice for yourself! 
✰ ours are the moments I play in the dark (E, 30k, b!L) by @holdingthornsandroses / edensrose
Jane Austen's Persuasion AU. Nine years ago Louis Tomlinson was persuaded to break off his engagement to Harry Styles, a poor sailor. Since then Louis has come to regret being so easily convinced to give up his one chance of happiness. Now Louis' family is in debt and his childhood home is being sold. In a complete reversal of fortune, Harry has returned to England a wealthy bachelor looking to settle down. Events conspire to bring them together once more though Louis is- must surely be- the last man on earth that Captain Styles would think of now.
✰ hot and heavy, pumpkin pie (E, 10k, b!L) by @sunflowerstyles
Louis and Harry get separated at a Green Bay Packers game. Harry finds him and helps his baby relax by buying Louis things that get him to smile and making love to him for quite a while. 
✰ laundry room (E, 10k, not specified/no penetrative sex) by @thelovejandles / beautlouis
[Louis and Harry are both students living in the same apartment complex. They end up having the same laundry night and time. Louis can't stop staring at Harry and he can't figure out why Harry consistently points out Louis’ inside-out shirts, and his untied shoes, and messy hair. Enter slow burn-ish flirting, banter, awkwardness, and a lot of laundry.] 
✰ everywhere and nowhere (E, 16k, b!L) by @2tiedships2 
Niall took a seat and said, "Apparently Louis' downstairs neighbor is a fan of giving Louis creepy gifts. Maybe I should go introduce myself and tell him that Louis actually prefers food."
"What has he given you?" Liam asked.
Louis shrugged as it were no big deal. "There was a rabbit's foot keychain on the door a little after he left from introducing himself and there was a small teddy bear sitting by my door tonight. Obviously I can't prove it's from him, but they seem to have his scent. I could be wrong though."
"Wow," Liam said, looking deep in thought. "That's old school."
"What's old school?" Niall asked. "Giving creepy gifts?"
"I've never known an alpha to do it, to be honest, but he's courting you."
Louis couldn't contain his look of disbelief directed at Liam. "He's courting me. Like some sort of romantic shit they'd do in the 1800s or something?"
✰ thinking about the t-shirt you sleep in (E, 52k, b!L) by @absoloutenonsense / nonsensedarling
Harry's alpha fraternity donates to a local thrift shop (because of Liam's latent crush on a cute beta in his lecture). Louis' financial situation (and confusing omega instincts) lead him to make some interesting fashion purchases. Lots of pizza, feelings, and not-really-lying.
✰ the case of the (definitely not haunted) styles mansion (E, 40k, b!H) by @briannamarguerite / briamaria
The Nancy Drew AU where Marcel is a man of logic, Louis is a private detective who believes in ghosts, and the Styles Mansion is definitely, absolutely, positively *not* haunted.
✰ building castles in the sky (GA, 22k, no smut) by @whileatwiltshire
"D-dad? You think I c-can do it? Y-you think i c-can..." Evan trailed off looking down at his chest. And Louis' heart melted.
"I think you can do everything, love. Everything." Louis said while pulling his boy closer. "Because you, my little dandelion, are very brave! And so strong and wonderful and so very bright! You will go up on that stage, and you will blow everyone away. I just know it."
They laid there on their porch while they hugged each other tightly. His little boy was so brave. Louis didn't need to see him on a stage to be proud. He was proud of him already.
"You know,” Evan mumbled aloud again. “Mr. S-Styles says the same t-thing. He s-says I c-can do e-everything too.”
And Louis couldn't help but smile.
or,
Where, Louis had a four year old with a stuttering problem. Harry was always there to help.
✰ a trail of honey through it all (E, 27k, b!L) by faeriestyles 
the TPH* fic we’ve all been waiting for. 
* (trailer park harry)
✰ we should open up (before it’s all too much) (E, 43k, b!H) by @disgruntledkittenface
Struggling with grieving and depression since his dad died, Harry has never felt so alone. It’s too much to cope with on his own, but he feels like a burden when he tries to open up with people.
Then he meets Louis.
personal note: I cannot stress enough how much this fic means to me and it is very close to my heart, but I strongly suggest checking the tags for any possible triggers before reading!! 
✰ my love’s not simple (it’s fragile) (E, 27k, b!L) by @risthebrave / falsegoodnight 
Harry's new job is threatened by his impending rut. Desperate for a solution, he allows Niall to introduce him to Louis, an omega whose heat begins the same day. They click.
✰ swept me off my feet (took my heart and took me down) (E, 25k, b!L) by jennifer_kaid
When Louis had decided to reopen his mother's bakery, he never thought a charming alpha would walk in through the door, let alone fall in love with him over tea, dessert and music.
✰ knock knock, I love you (E, 86k, b!H) by @thelovejandles / beautlouis
[Harry and Louis get kicked out of a statistics exam for passing a knock knock joke note, and subsequently fall in love. Harry's a virgin, there's a cat, a hot cocoa date, a lot of sex, even more knock knock jokes, and everything is lovely and happy.] 
✰ enjoy the ride (E, 11k, imp. b!L) by @2tiedships2
the one where Louis, an omega more than tired of being treated as lesser than alphas, is forced on a road trip by his beta besties only to meet Harry who might just be the alpha he never knew he wanted.
✰ fading (E, 202k, b!L) by tothemoonmydear
Louis knows about beauty; the combination of qualities that pleases the aesthetic senses. He creates that combination every day in the garments he designs while studying fashion at uni. The cut of the design, the color of the fabric, the intricacy of the stitching; it all comes together to create something beautiful. When the science student with the long legs and dimpled smile agrees to model for him, Louis decides he’s found beauty personified. Harry just thinks Louis needs someone to show him how beautiful he is.
personal note: another wonderful and realistic story but please check the tags for triggers before reading! 
all of these fics and authors mean a lot to me and have unknowingly made me incredibly happy during some dark times. if you visit these fics, please make sure to leave a kudos or a comment to spread some positivity, or feel free to let the authors that have made your life better know! :) 
(as always, please let me know if I tagged or linked anything incorrectly! happy reading!)

HALLOWEEN FIC REC, Part II: Below you’ll find fics that take place on or around Halloween. (Part I)
📖 knock knock, i love you by @thelovejandles (86k)
Harry and Louis get kicked out of a statistics exam for passing a knock knock joke note, and subsequently fall in love. Harry's a virgin, there's a cat, a hot cocoa date, a lot of sex, even more knock knock jokes, and everything is lovely and happy.
📖 Skin New, Hands True, My Hands All Over You by @moonhusbands (44k)
Featuring a heavy dose of pining, copious amounts of alcohol, drunk dialing that results in a situation reminiscent of Rachel Green's, a ginger cat that likes to interrupt intimate moments, and a Halloween party that changes everything.
📖 Put On Your Running Shoes, I’m Ready to Go by @peachbootylouis (35k)
Or the one where Harry has to go to Liam at the gym he works at and just so happens to catch Louis giving a group exercise class, convincing him to start going to that gym just to see Louis as much as he can. And as it turns out, Louis may be just as eager to see him too.
📖 Autumn Leaves by @fourmp3 (19k)
all louis tomlinson wished for was a change to blow in with the cool autumn breeze this year. but when change comes in the form of a boy who makes him forgot to breathe properly, he thinks he may have gotten more than he bargained for.
📖 to the brim with fright by @hereforlou (14k)
Or, the one where Louis’ high and scared and Harry’s...also high and scared.
📖 that sweet something by @paisleystyles (13k)
or: a single dad au in which Louis hosts his annual Halloween party and needs a little help from a certain someone to make it all run smoothly. Featuring Zayn as Louis’ ever-exasperated colleague, Liam as a pumpkin patch owner and Niall as Niall, only with more highlighters.
📖 Am I Scaring You Tonight? by @chloehl10 (12k)
A surprise Halloween storm brings two unlikely men together. Stuck in a bookstore with no power, they spend their night reading spooky stories by candlelight.
📖 taken by the wind by @scrunchyharry (12k)
When he decided to move to London with his sister, Harry thought he would finally get to learn how to control his magic. He couldn't possibly have predicted that he would fall for her neighbour.
Or the one where Harry is a clumsy witch and Louis is making everything worse just by existing.
📖 You come in waves (we crash and we roll) by @rainbowsandlovehl (11k)
Three times Louis makes a fool of himself in front of Harry and one time he doesn't.
📖 I'll Meet You At The Cemetery Gates by @chrysopon (10k)
Or, Zayn works at the cemetery only because he likes to look at statues, Niall lives in a society, Liam is silly tipsy, Harry is a witch (not a wizard), and Louis just wants them to have some respect for the deceased.
📖 i get a little bit nervous around you by @femstyles (8k)
Or the one where Harry never had a problem with controlling his magic until Louis walked into his life. AKA the clumsy witch Harry AU no one asked for!
📖 that's the kind of love (i've been dreaming of) by @leedsau (7k)
You see, Harry and the boys (the boys meaning Louis, Liam, Zayn, and Niall) are employed for one month out of the year to dress up in costumes for an amusement park, to go around and be all scary and cool. Harry’s go-to outfit is a witch, but not the scary kind, he doesn't want to be one of the scary witches, he wants to be more…sexy, but also appropriate for families. Liam usually dresses up as a werewolf, Zayn a vampire, Louis a mummy, and Niall…well…
📖 Bon Appétit, Baby by @softfonds (6k)
It's Halloween, their baby daughter is staying with her aunt, and Harry and Louis finally get a date night, complete with a surprise Louis surely wasn't expecting.
📖 a walk around the edges of your trepidation by @britishlovers (6k)
Harry and Louis go pumpkin picking in Red Sun, one of the most eerie towns in England. Amidst beautiful photographs, breathtaking love and crisp autumn wind, events accelerate into a much darker perspective.
📖 in other words, I love you by @cocoalou (3k)
In 2004, the year that they met, Harry kissed Louis for the very first time on Halloween.
Ten years later, Harry has to spend Halloween on bed rest and Louis makes sure that his husband doesn't miss a thing.
📖 The cat is out of the bag by @vintageumbroshirt (3k)
Harry somehow gets himself stuck as a black cat on Halloween and needs help from Louis to change back into his human form.
The problem is: Louis doesn’t even know witches exist, much less that Harry is one. And there’s also the fact he thinks Harry is ghosting him after they had sex for the first time.
So the situations isn’t ideal. But it’s okay. Harry will figure something out.
📖 Out of Our Shells by @crinkle-eyed-boo (2k)
When Harry discovers that Louis has never gone trick-or-treating, he's determined to give him the most human experience possible.

I was wondering if you could make a top 3 or 5 of your favourite fics, im trying to add as much stuff as possible to my quarantine tbr lol so I'm going around asking some ppl so that I can add everyone's favourite and read the ones I think I'd like🥰 it's totally okay if you can't/don't want to tho!!
hi! i hope you're doing okay as well 💞
my absolute favourite fic is bloodline by banana_louis. i adore this fic so much, it's so wonderfully fluffy and just so cute and 🥺 it makes me happy and ive read at least 6 times already
i LOVE homegrown by casuallyhl so much!! it's about gardening and as a gardener myself i just love it! it's very cute and fluffy as well hehe
knock knock, i love you by beautlouis aka @thelovejandles is so wonderful!! ive read it i think 4 times now and it just makes me happy :')
the two parts of a long way from the playground by allyasavedtheday. these fics make me long, yearn, pine (you get it) for love,,, 😖
something great by infinitelymint is very soft and sweet 🥺
put the stars in our eyes by crybaby is very soft and wonderful and is farm centric which i love (but it has a pretty big age gap which im not the most fond of tbh ://)
satellite by suspendrs aka @suspendrs is so soft and i read while i was in finnland and i read some of it in a bus to helsinki to meet my friend and i lowkey sobbed on public transport bc of it so SHFJFHFJD
some classic faves i adore are wild and unruly (cowboy harry !!!!!!!! farm!!!!! ahhhhhhh!!!!), escapade, relief next to me, soft hands, fast feet, can't loose, resist everything except temptation, tired, tired sea (i usually don't gravitate towards angst as you might've noticed but i loved this so much)
and last but not least a finnpoe fic! doubt thou the stars are fire by linatrinch. i read this once many, many moons ago and it made me feel so much that im still in awe of it. this is the only star wars fic ive ever read and god it was truly something (honestly i can't even say if id enjoy this anymore but this left such an impression on me that im just gonna rec it anyways)

Jen if you're in the mood for a fic rec could you do one that's like about.... mmm well i'm undecided between awkward-bed-sharing turns-into-something-else (with maybe a touch of first time vibes in there) and morning sex in bed (but like the more established relationship kind) .... could you do a bit of a mix? I really love these kind of fics and your recs are always great! (Sorry for the confused request akhfaa)
Oh, mannnnnn, you are killllllin’ me because this is surprisingly difficult??? SO MANY STORIES FIT BOTH THESE BILLS, fuckkkkk, but yeah, I feel ya, I *got* ya, let’s do this, I’m just doing the whole Bill O’Reilly, “fuck it, we’ll do it live” meltdown because I’m probably literally forgetting thousands of epic fics in this, but I don’t want to overthink, so jump with me!
when you say you love me, know i love you more, by darkofthenights/ @jimmytfallon, 2.4k words, E. Louis discovers one of Harry’s insecurities and happily soothes it away. (morning sex, and soft soft soft, god i love this)
took me by the wrist, by orphan_account (cough, cough, Hima), 4.2k words, E. In the moment, everything feels like it’s on fire, but suddenly Louis just feels boneless. He kind of can’t believe that this beautiful boy is all his. Harry looks wrecked but he’s grinning like a criminal, and city lights smile over them both.(morning sex, quiet sobbing, yeah)
Better in Hotel Sheets, by objectlesson/ @alienfuckeronmain, 9.8k words, E.  “Finding some random person to fuck just because I wanna make the best of this bed seems really exhausting,” Harry says. Which is a perfectly normal, acceptable thing to say to one’s best mate. “Wish you and I could just, like…fuck casually instead. Way less exhausting, and you wouldn’t have to sleep with Zayn in sexile,” he adds, which is not, under any circumstance, normal or acceptable. (bed sharing, and just know that I’m gonna rec a few of Phoenix’s, but I’m probably gonna forget a few more because this entire area is her JAM)
shit, i still love you (still see you in my bed), by wankerville, 11k words, general audience (lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo). Harry hums, tugging his bottom lip between his teeth, “I want daddy to fuck me in the gold booties he got me for my birthday.” or, it’s valentine’s day and harry wants to be fucked in his gold boots (morning sex and gold boots and god i love wankerville so goddamned MUCH)
Alien Roadtrip!, by @helloamhere, 16k words, E (needs ao3). For the first time in his life, Louis doesn’t know where he’s going. Harry doesn’t mind. OR: roadtrip with desert feelings, too much snack food, and empty motels. Harry is definitely absolutely not an alien. That would be ridiculous. (bed sharing in desert motels, even though it isn’t strictly necessary, and I know I rec this one a LOT, but the dialogue is so SPARKY)
You Drive Me Crazy (I Just Can’t Sleep), by objectlesson/ @alienfuckeronmain, 18k words, E. The first time Louis ends up in Harry’s bed is a total accident. (bed sharing, and this is so fucking CANON, bb, and yeah, her jam)
Once Upon a Dream, by objectlesson/ @alienfuckeronmain, 26k words, E. “M’not gonna half-ass our fake relationship,” Louis almost snaps, voice sharp with a defensive edge, like Harry wandered too close to a bruise with needy fingers. “Now kiss me again. We’re gonna make every shitty tourist here wish they had stayed in the Midwest. We’re gonna burn Disneyland down with our gay. ”Harry shuts his eyes and opens his mouth, because he can’t fucking say no to Louis. Or, a fake dating AU where everyone is lying and they happen to be at the Happiest Place on Earth. (bed sharing, and this was a gift for me over a year ago, and I STILL THINK ABOUT IT anytime I meet up with Phoenix and Blake at the Disney tiki bar)
Find You Home, by @kingsofeverything, 35k words, E. When Louis lies to his family and says he’ll bring his new boyfriend home for Christmas, his best friend and roommate Harry agrees to play the part. It’s that, or be left alone over the holidays. What will happen? (bed sharing, that’s what!! i think Lauren’s written more than one of these, but yeah!)
knock knock, i love you, by beautlouis/ @thelovejandles, 86k words, E. Harry and Louis get kicked out of a statistics exam for passing a knock knock joke note, and subsequently fall in love. Harry’s a virgin, there’s a cat, a hot cocoa date, a lot of sex, even more knock knock jokes, and everything is lovely and happy. (morning sex, but just in general, a very sweet hot hot hot fic I love to the moon and back; i just reread it because i kept going on and ON about it with @pattern-pals, who fell in love, too)
Untangle Me, by suicxene, 103k words, E. It’s not like Louis can pinpoint the exact moment in time when him and Harry fell out of sync. There wasn’t really one at all. It had been a gradual slip, like the tide wearing away at a sandstone cliff. LA only seems to accentuate the distance between them. Two separate planets, not even in the same solar system. Or the one where Harry and Louis finally get it right. (morning sex, and one of the first fics I read in this fandom)
Escapade, by dolce_piccante, 146k words, E (needs ao3 account). Listen, everyone has rec’d this and has feelings about it, so I won’t even give the description, lmao, but yeah, bed sharing, wildly assuming you haven’t already read it!

If you aren't getting sick of doing fic recs yet I would love some really good banter fics! I saw that you mentioned banter in some of your fic descriptions and since banter is one of my favorite things to read in this fandom I thought I would see if you have any favorites. Thanks!
No, not sick of it at all. I love talking about fic! Sorry it took me so long though but Harry dropped a thing and then Louis dropped a thing and I was…distracted. LOL! Anyway, let’s see what I’ve got for you…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These Inconvenient Fireworks by mdasch & everydayslike (E, 190K) Ok, I know this is a fic that almost everyone knows, but it’s the real OG and it truly has some of the best banter ever. 
let me make a thing of cream and stars by missandrogyny (E, 25K) This fic is just lighthearted and fun and I love the way they tease each other in this one. 
In Dreams by dolce_piccante (M, 24K) I know this author has much more popular fics, but I’ve always found this one particularly charming. I love the way Louis coaxes Harry out of his shell with his sense of humor and romantic persistence. 
The Finish Line (Is A Good Place For Us To Start) by LoadedGunn (E, 122K) An oldie, but a great one – especially with you want banter and ot5 friendship. And a really good story. And some hot smut. 
like a simile, i paint suggestive pictures (of me and you) by dangerbears (15K, NR) I love the bantering in this one, it’s so funny! Plus it has great Nouis and Zouis friendships. 
No Bunny But You by @crinkle-eyed-boo (E, 13K) I loved the banter in this one! The flirting was fun and so well done and even though it all takes place in one day, I got a great sense of them getting to know each other and opening up. And the smut scene was 👍🏻
gorgeous (it makes me so mad) by resurrectdead / @artxghoul (E, 30K) I yelled about this one a couple of months ago. The banter is great, lots of flirting, Harry’s a bit of a disaster gay, the smut scenes are super hot. It’s such a fun read.
to hell with romancing by @bottomlinsons (E, 8K) I’m not sure if you’d exactly put this in the “banter category”, but Harry’s internal monologue in this is just hilarious. I might read this again tonight, come to think of it. 
Laundry Room by beautlouis / @thelovejandles (E, 10K) It’s been a little while since I read this one, but I do remember a great internal monologue, sweet flirting, and a super hot smut scene!
Be My Little Good Luck Charm by 100percentsassy (E, 35K) First of all, great pacing and sexual tension. Snappy, witty dialogue. Sexy smut scenes. I’ve read this one a few times and like it more each time. 
Right Side of the Wrong Bed by eyesofshinigami (E, 11K) I read this ages ago (when my bookmarking system basically consisted of “I LOVE THIS!”), but I do remember it being funny, sexy, and having great banter. I really enjoy this author’s writing, so if you like this one, check their others out. 
Is This Seat Taken? by Lainy122 (E, 36K) Famous/not famous. Light, funny, I really enjoyed how Louis keeps Harry on his toes throughout this one.
