Iâm not a relationship expert by any means. I could count on one hand the number of guys Iâve dated, and Iâm still not sure why at least half of those relationships ended. Part of it might be that Iâm terrible with communication. Perhaps the stars werenât aligned in our favor. Or maybe the whole aimless, drifting, perpetual not-sure-whatâs-next-for-me state Iâve been in for the past decade isnât particularly attractive.
Iâm not an expert with these things. But I donât need to be an expert to know when I have something special.

âHey, you all right, Leo?â Harry asks.âWhatâs that face?â
The words are on the tip of my tongue: No, Iâm not all right. Iâm drowning, and I donât know what to do.
But I canât say that. Those feelings are deep inside me, coming from a place that never gets willingly exposed. Iâm not used to someone dredging them up. I wish I could voice them as they echo fiercely in my mind, but I canât voice them to Harry. My lovely Harry, who would be hurt that Iâve kept this from him, who would work himself tirelessly to fix things. Heâs already contributed so much to my happiness the past few years. He shouldnât have to do any more.
sun on the rise, sequel to burning daylight

1. as my professional life has become extremely busy this year, my ability to devote time to fic-related things has lessened immensely. this means that iâve fallen behind in the bb schedule and iâve been unable to publicize it to the extent that i wanted to.
2. the number of writers has dwindled from 70+ to 12. this reflects, i expect, not only the difficulty of keeping up with a project over such a long writing period, but also the shrinking of the 1d community as a whole.Â
2. only 2 artists signed up to claim stories. this means that the other 10 writers do not have artists to work with their stories. as this collaboration is central to the success of the big bang, iâve taken some time to think about itâs future.
as far as i can see, we have two options:Â
1. writers continue to write and source art/banners for their stories on their own. then, come january 22, the posting date originally set for the big bang, all of the writers post their stories.
2. i officially cancel the big bang and writers are left to post their stories whenever they so desire.Â
iâm sure weâre all disappointed that the big bang will not turn out as weâd hoped, but such is the nature of fic projects of this sort. in any case, weâll be getting some great stories out of this, and that was always the goal.Â
please reply to this post or send me a message letting me know which option you prefer.
okay, writers. based on the feedback i got from you, your collective decision is that you will all post your fics on january 22. or sometime around there. once theyâre up, send me a link and i will compile a rebloggable list here with a fancy graphic and/or sparkly text.Â
you are now open to source banners/graphics for your story from the boards or makers on tumblr at your will, and you can promote/preview your story to whatever extent you wish on tumblr.Â
iâll not be checking in with you throughout the rest of the writing period, but please feel free to message me if you have questions/concerns.

1. âWhat scares you the most?â
Shane blinks, turning her head to face him. âUm⌠ Well, losing the people I love most. That terrifies me actually.â
Niallâs arm brushes against hers. Itâs innocent and hopeful. âIâm one of those people, right?â
âDonât be silly,â she says, almost breathless, because in a world without Niall, her life would be dull and wrong. So, so wrong. Shane nudges him back, a little harder, hopes it will tell him so much more than just a yes, always. âOf course you are.â

a life is strange inspired auÂ
or
the one where shane can reverse time
2. There are three things of which Brynn is absolutely certain: imagination and creativity are themost attractive qualities in another, wine tastes best from a mug, and all good things inevitablycome to an end. After walking away from what seemed like the perfect relationship, sheâs keptherself busy by picking back up the pieces of her life. Even as everything seems to be fallinginto place, she canât help but wonder if something is missing. Her best friendâs wedding takesher to Ireland where sparks fly after she meets a handsome stranger who turns out to be NiallHoran. Although neither one is looking for love, their vacation fling slowly turns into somethingmore. In each other they find an unexpected comfort and ease. For the first time Brynnâs senseof self doesnât feel compromised by her relationship. When her ex comes back to town Brynnâstrail of half-truths finally catch up with her, further complicating their already turbulent longdistance relationship. Will Brynn and Niall be able to repair their broken trust or will Brynnwalk from the love of her life, again.
3. Thereâs a beauty in adventure that Delilah absolutely adores, the passion for travel running rampant in her veins since she was a young girl. Itâs why she loves her job. She sails the high seas for half the year and spends the rest exploring the land and its wonders. Lately, though, sheâs been craving intimacy, but not just from anyone. A certain blue-eyed boy has caught her attention, but heâs got too much on his mind to notice her.
An AU about cruise ships, the people who work on them, the beauty of the sea, and the magic of the stars.
4.  Blakely Ruth Hyland hated clichĂŠs. Absolutely despised them. And she knew she was looking at one; a boybander with brown curls and dimples who caused the death of teenage girls all over the world with his voice and charms, dressed in colour schemes with his band mates. It was absolutely laughable.Â
She was a clichĂŠ too though. The wild daughter of a rock star legend who had grown up partying too hard and now wanted to become a model. That too absolutely laughable.
In a world where someone like him should stay away from someone like her, and she should ridicule someone like him, that became the last thing they did. In a world where they shouldnât be connected to each other, they instead became best friends. Who were going to be together. One day.Â
Until then, it was to be their little secret.
5. According to Harry Styles, when two people are meant to be, they should find a way to be together no matter the distance or whatever obstacle there is in between. Of course, when said obstacle is called Claire Jones, things are a bit more complicated, that's why Harry is always there to give a little push to the two people who have been blinded for too long.
But is Liam Payne really going to leave his fiancĂŠe standing at the altar? In other words, will he realise who his true love actually is on time?
This is the story of the reunion of two good friends for the groom's wedding and the different interpretations of the definitions of the words love and relationship. Or the one where Harry is a cool Anglican priest that tends to stick his nose in other people's business.
6. Things went sideways when Momâs restaurant finally closed.
I was something close to a wreck, those first few months. No one ever tells you how excruciating it is, being in one of lifeâs in-betweens. It was like Iâd been plunked right back into that brief period when Iâd considered what to do after college and I had no idea. Lucky for me back then, Momâs need for help at the restaurant arose, Harry came into the picture, and I had an easy escape from the dithering of indecision.
This time around, I don't have it so easy.
7. hey girl, you've got a smart way about you.
Harper didn't expect to have the summer she was thrust into when her parents announced their divorce and her father cancelled the annual Lane Family East Coast Adventure. But a last minute decision to stay with at her best friend's family's inn may have been the one to change her life.
A story about photography and friendship with a hint of mystery.
(a dirty dancing au, of sorts)
8. July Montgomery is practically Emerald Pools Water Park royalty and thatâs how she likes it.  She wears her tan lines like battle armor and doesn't let anyone forget that she's the head bitch around.  Nothing is gonna ruin her summer. Â
But then Harry Styles shows up in his tiny swim trunks and fucks everything up. Â Simply put, heâs beautifulâall dimples and shiny, white teeth and âyes, maâamâs and âno maâamâs and she thinks sheâs in trouble because he just might be the one that shakes her from her foundation. Â
A lifeguard AU about sunscreen, the status quo, and trying to figure out why Harry is so damn good at swimming.Â
9. Charlie Hollandâs place of employment is...societally unconventional, though that's not to say she doesn't enjoy it. But when the new boy, Niall Horan, comes in, he has certain expectations about working in a sex shop and plans for his life. Charlie'll just have to show him that expectations are meant to be defied and that the best-laid plans of men often go awry.           Â
Featuring adult block parties, too much sexual tension, and a guy named Bug.
10. âHe tells me itâs a blessing: two good looking kids on the run, time bomb ticking in our trunk.I donât think he knows what blessings are.â
An apocalyptic story about laser guns, a radio station, and a notebook with a cat in a flower pot on the cover.
11. In 1920s, Prohibition-Era Chicago, Aria Fiorelli is young woman with flapper ideals and a dream to be a doctor. Her father is more traditional and refuses to pay for a woman to take on a man's job, so Aria jumps at the chance to work with a small-time con artist Louis Tomlinson to make a few bucks and save up for school. Unfortunately, the job is to seduce Harry Styles, Chicago's most notorious mob boss who runs all the illegal alcohol and gambling in this town. Aria soon finds herself over her head in her quest to play the long game on Styles, with only the help of Louis' ragtag band of Liam, Louis' best friend and bodyguard; Zayn, Styles' slighted bookie with revenge plans of his own, and Niall Horan, a corrupt cop with a good heart but troubled home life.
12. Riannon Verbeck knew that it wasnât the best time to move.Â
It was the middle of the semester and the string of rental posts on the Facebook student page had dwindled to none. But between her moody housemate who sleepwalked into her room and launched pillows aggressively, the sleazy landlord who always asked if she preferred other methods of payment, and the sound of perpetual sex in the boysâ suite attached, Riannon announced to her mother that she was leaving and would live on the goddamn street if she had to.Â
Fortunately, Harry Styles had just gotten off the phone with his cross parents. The verdict was clear: find a roommate to split the rent, or no Stradivarius violin.Â
It isnât long before Ri and H find themselves under the same roof, casual acquaintances who think one another agreeable enough. They split the loft cleanly in half -- his space, hers.
But for tonight, there is only one bed. They just might have to share it.
A fake-dating, bed-sharing uni AU with a dash of prodigy music.Â
