I'm Your Un-Wingman

by homosociallyyours 2300 words, Gen, idiots to lovers

Harry and Louis are flirty best friends who have a bet about how long each of them can stay celibate. In order to win, they both (separately) ask Niall to be the opposite of a wingman, keeping the potential suitors AWAY when they go out that night.

Niall agrees, but fate-- and the friendly and helpful bartender, Liam --has other plans.

I'd Choose You Over Sleep

by homosociallyyours 2100 words, G, Girl Direction

If there's one thing Louis values, it's a bit of sleeping in on the weekends. There's very little she'll let come between her and those few precious hours of the day.

Harry might just make her shift her priorities. At least a little.

The Ball Guy

by homosociallyyours 1400 words, T, pre-slash

Harry is an unpaid intern on his first film set, and he's pretty excited to see that his number one celebrity crush, Louis Tomlinson, will be a part of the movie. He's on the call sheet for the day, followed by a very odd addition: a ball guy?

Now that's a role Harry wouldn't mind getting his hands on.

2k, Gen, established Larry

Harry is away from their family for the first time, and although Louis misses him he knows he can handle things. When their young daughter gets a fever in the middle of the night, Louis is by her side immediately. There's nothing he wouldn't do to make her feel better. Even build his very first nest.

Salt On My Tongue

Explicit, 750 words, Larry

by @homosociallyyours

Written for @wankersday fest and inspired by this post

Harry is a witch who's been dabbling in summoning sex demons for a while now. He's become especially devoted to one incubus in particular, a blue eyed demon called Louis. Of course he's not a fool-- he always makes sure to summon Louis into a circle of salt. That's all he needs to keep himself from becoming an eternal servant of pleasure, right? Right.

Thanks to @kingsofeverything for running this absolutely delightful fest!!

Pussy Juice

by homosociallyyours 4k, M

When Harry visits her hometown gay bar, she expects it to be a little awkward. But if she's going to move back to town, she figures she better get used to that. While she manages to dodge the bar's "special" drink, the Pussy Juice shot, she can't avoid the feelings that come up when her former teacher (and teen crush), Louis joins her and her friends for the night.

I Really Like Your Styles: The Holiday Advent-ure

by homosociallyyours

34k, Teen, Larry

Louis isn't much for frills, and the coffee shop he co-owns with his best friend Liam is evidence of that. Yes, it's got a decent sized, well-kept industrial kitchen, but Louis insists that people come to coffee shops for coffee, not mediocre pastry and plastic wrapped cookies. When Liam's campaign for serving treats turns into watching a few baking accounts on whichever popular app he's on now, there's one that really gets on Louis' nerves: "I Like Your Styles." With his chipper demeanor and over the top descriptions of the food he makes, Louis is sure that the (unfortunately cute) baker is full of it. Nothing that adorable could possibly be worth the hype.

It doesn't actually take much for him to eat his words...and some quality baked goods, while he's at it.

Got that Electric Feel

by homosociallyyours 900 words, Mature, F/F

The Halloween party that Louis' at has good music and copious liquor, but absolutely nobody she wants to hook up with. Until a mysterious woman in stacked heels is standing in front of her like a vision.

Louis doesn't stand a chance.

I See You Shiver With Antici-- (SAY IT! SAY IT!)

My Kind of Trouble

by homosociallyyours 1800 words, Gen, F/F

Harry has been a waitress at the Waffle House in Pigeon Forge, TN since she was nineteen. At twenty-five, she's settled into the routine of it enough that it feels like home, but for the past few months there's been something making it feel even better: the return of Louis Tomlinson, her high school crush.

On this particular Summer night, Louis stops by for a visit and the two of them share a table in a slow moment as Harry does a bit of side work. It's sweet in more ways than one, so much so that Harry has a hard time letting herself believe that it's real.

Gaydar Lessons

by homosociallyyours 1200 words, Gen, F/F

While standing around after softball practice for the company's women's softball team, Harry gets caught (and caught up) in staring at Louis as she eats a ripe, juicy peach. If only she could be certain that Louis was into women.

The Heart's Home

by homosociallyyours 10k, Larry, T

Louis is alone in the world, working long hours at a restaurant job that barely pays his bills, when he's roped into helping his bosses with a scheme. All he has to do is guard the special catch they've brought in, the one that they expect will bring them unbelievable wealth. But there's a problem: the creature they've caught is definitely half human, with the heart and soul of a human and the voice of an angel. Louis knows immediately that he can't let this mer-squid, Harry, become a wealthy person's dinner. As they spend more time together, growing ever closer, Louis realizes that he's got to find a way to get Harry back to his home-- the sea --even if the thought of losing him hurts and doing it means risking everything.

The Fox Verse by Anonymous

This is not a post for my own fic; instead it's a rec for a fic series that I've absolutely fallen in love with that has been shared by an anonymous author in the Anonymous Unicorns collection. The summaries don't do the beauty of this series justice, but they do handily describe the action:

A Den In Kettils Mews: Harry and Louis are two London foxes in love.

Tale of a Vixen: Louis and his mate Harry enjoy a quiet home life under a oak tree in a North London park. There is only one thing missing from their peaceful idyll; a litter of their own.

But here's what I will say: Inspired in part by the writing style of Hans Christian Anderson, these stories have a hazy, fairytale-like quality that I can only describe as fantastical realism. Harry and Louis are foxes, and their animal natures and activities are key to the story, but their personalities and humanity shine through like sunlight dappling the grass outside the den they make together.

Both installments contain beautifully written smut and complex thoughts about family, sex, and gender, all explored through the eyes of two well-rendered versions of Harry and Louis.

This is the author's first fic, but the way they use language feels practiced and intentional. This is a series I can see myself re-visiting time and time again, and I can't recommend it highly enough. I mean. I made a fic post for it!!

Please consider giving this unusual and exciting fic a shot, and leave kudos/comments if you enjoy it-- that's how we'll get more!!

I Couldn't Write You Off If I Tried by @homosociallyyours

11k Mature Girl Direction Marcel/Louis

Marcel is an accountant at one of the H&R Block offices in San Francisco. While she likes her job (and her life) just fine, there's no denying that it's a little bit boring and lonely.

Louis is a dancer at The Lusty Lady, a worker owned peep show in San Francisco that's not far from Marcel's office. When she sees a tweet from H&R Block's official twitter that claims to offer tax preparation help for exotic dancers, she's a little skeptical, but decides to call a local office to see if they're for real. They are-- or at least Marcel is.

Between the two of them, there's a little bit of taxes, a little bit of dancing, and a kind of chemistry that Marcel hopes is undeniable, because she's certainly not ready to write Louis off. Maybe just maybe Louis feels the same.
