These are the fics I read in September 2025. This fandom has so many talented writers, and the stories I found this month were such a delight <3 You can find my other fic recs here.
💜 When the Sun Won't Let You Sleep by @allwaswell16 [E, 30k, enemies to lovers]
Four years ago, Louis Tomlinson left the UK to live on an Antarctic research station for reasons best left in the past. He’s carved out a life for himself on the ice and has dedicated himself to his research, his friends, and especially the Halley VI research station. He’s less than thrilled when he learns that Harry Styles, a glaciologist from another base who once broke his heart, will be coming to Halley, and he’s definitely unprepared for the upheaval Harry brings with him.
💜 Alpha Seeking Alpha by @jaerie [E, 3k, omegaverse]
Maybe it's taboo, but Louis can't stop thinking about a strong alpha holding him down and filling him with a knot. Louis may be alpha himself yet there's a corner of the internet where he can get what he wants. He finally has the courage to do it.
💜 I Got a Text!, a series by YesIsAWorld / @louandhazaf
Exploring Connections [G, 1k, reality tv]
No matter the situation or how tough the first few days had been, Louis could always wring a smile, a chuckle, a positive attitude out of Harry. They had clicked the moment they all first sat around the fire pit, introducing themselves. Harry was more at ease around him than anyone else in the villa, and had more fun talking with him than anyone else too.
My Type on Paper [G, 1.2k, reality tv]
"Truth!" Harry called out. During his first turn he had been dared to say what he honestly thought of each person using only one word. He had hoped he'd have to do something more scandalous, but the night was still young. And possibly, a truth was likely to be more sordid anyway.
Head's Been Turned [G, 1.2k, reality tv]
He sat on the soft pad of the weightlifting bench and willed his heart to stop racing. He knew he was being irrational: his brain told him that there was no way Louis and Krystle were lipsing in bed last night. His brain also whispered to him that it didn't matter anyway. Who cared if they were? But his heart thundered at his unhelpful brain.
Can I Pull You for a Chat? [G, 686, reality tv]
Louis asked Harry an important question. One he'd never considered before.
Closed Off [G, 925, reality tv]
Harry adjusts to live outside the villa.
💜 please yourself like you mean it by @insightfulinsomniac [E, 10k, enemies to lovers]
Harry Styles, model-turned-influencer, is a household name for nearly anyone under the age of forty, thanks to his popular brand, Pleasing. It seems like the entire young adult population can be found walking the streets in a Pleasing branded crewneck and with Pleasing polish decorating their nails. The world has bought into Harry Styles, and thus, into Pleasing.
Except for Louis Tomlinson. Call him cynical, but he's thirty-three, lives in an expensive, empty apartment in New York, and only lives for his job and his weekly pub night with his best friend. Harry Styles means nothing to him... until his marketing firm acquires Pleasing's next campaign: sex toys (and personal lubricant).
He's not happy about the new partnership, and he's not afraid to make his displeasure known. Even if that means saying it to Harry Styles' unfairly pretty face. What could go wrong?
💜 taken by lust's strange inhumanity by CuckooTrooke / @larrydoinglaundry [E, omegaverse, 20k]
One of the reasons Harry said 'yes' in the first place was because he believed Louis Tomlinson, the campus’ most notorious “bad boy”, would be here.
And much to Harry's triumph and dismay, Louis is here but the last time Harry got a glimpse of him, he had a pretty omega wrapped around him, clinging onto the flaps of his leather jacket while nosing his scent glands.
Maybe that’s just the story of Harry's life; always infatuated with the wrong people.
💜 the trail provides by whatabadchoice / @lydiejo [E, 13k, hiking au]
It’s just that this stranger is really quite (very, extremely) pretty. And Louis knows it isn’t some magical effect of dehydration or delusion because he is present enough to notice the stars and stripes pattern adorning his head. A US flag as a headscarf. This would have had Louis running in the opposite direction in normal circumstances. The Northwestern lilt in his British accent helped somewhat, but Louis might have actually fucked a Texan in any case.
Or, hiking is not a spiritual experience and Louis will die on that hill.
💜 "The Demon you’re trying to summon is currently unavailable." by red_panda28 / @red-panda-28 [T, 666, meet-cute]
“We’re sorry, the Demon you’re trying to summon is currently unavailable. Your ritual is important to us. Please hold--” Harry sighed and hung up, glowering at his phone.
“Go with the time they said. It will make things easier they said. They didn’t mention they’d still be putting me on fucking hold,” he muttered.
💜 Thirsting by yeah_alright / @uhoh-but-yeah-alright [E, 3k, vampire au]
Louis is finally ready for his vampire boyfriend to feed from him, but when Zayn worries Louis is still too nervous to enjoy it fully, he calls on Harry for help.
💜 Between Your Thighs by larry_hiatus / @emilarry [E, 5k, tattoo parlor au]
Zayn works at Harry’s tattoo shop, and Harry is looking to get a new tattoo. Zayn isn’t thrilled about doing it, but when Harry offers Zayn a chance to fuck his thighs before tattooing them, suddenly Zayn is on board.
💜 great minds by @eleadore [E, 5k, mutual masturbation]
Harry's the adventurous one. Everyone knows that.
💜 we could stay at home or watch the sunset by @louislittletomlintum [E, 10k, mutual masturbation]
“Can I give it a go?” Louis asked curiously, like when he was impatient to have a turn on the Xbox.
“Your dick. Give it a bash. I just wonder how it would feel, like, if I were to have a cut cock. You can have a pull of mine if you like, if you’ve wondered the opposite,” Louis proposed, handing the offer out like it was a packet of crisps.
Zayn side-eyed him, not believing what he was hearing.
“Give what a go?” Zayn questioned wearily, though he feared he knew exactly what was being asked.
HARRY/LOUIS/NICK GRIMSHAW
💜 We'll Always Have Blockbuster by @disgruntledkittenface [NR, 3k, 90s au]
Nick has been casually seeing Harry, his coworker at the video rental store. When Harry starts dating their friend Louis, Nick tries to be the bigger person. It turns out that he’s just an idiot.
And thank Christ for that.
