Just A Lot Of Gay Stuff

Hi darling. I haven’t actually listened to any before, but I’ve had that question before so these posts have all the info I can suggest:

Turning your fic into an audio book

All One Direction podfics listed on AO3

some faves:

Thought the Song Was Sung-- hour and a half-- AU, 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.

Scare Me Up a Little Bit of Love- 15 min-- cute non-spooky ghost love story

Through The Jungle Through The Dark--1 hour -- Louis and Harry were best friends, until they weren’t. Five years after they last spoke they’re forced to drive cross-country to visit an injured friend. If they can’t get over the past, it will be a very long week together.

Got My Hand in My Pocket and My Head in a Cloud-- 1 hour-- Everyone has seen One Direction in photos and on television. They're manufactured and synthesized but harmless and fun enough, all bright smiles and wide eyes, styled within an inch of their lives. There's nothing wrong with them exactly, but Harry is dive bars and touring in a second-hand van with songs he wrote himself. He's industry credibility and respect, with a moody pout and an apathetic hair flick. Their worlds don't exactly collide on a normal basis.

In Dreams-- 3 hours-- AU. When Harry moves to a new city, his new flat comes with a number of sweet, anonymous gifts and surprises that brighten his days. Could it be a friendly ghost? Another friendly presence in his new building is his tattooed neighbor, Louis, who seems determined to put a smile back on his face.

Leave it To The Breeze-- 9 hours-- a Great British Bake Off AU in which Louis cares about winning and winning only, Harry is made of sunshine and rainbow sprinkles, and Niall sticks his nose into other people's business. Also featuring Liam as Louis' best friend-slash-concerned mother, and Zayn as a macaron connoisseur.

Prompt 174: AU where drunk Harry lifts Louis up after someone says “bottoms up”. Louis blushes at Harry’s antics, flustered that his best friend knew him more than he thought. Friends to lovers with a happy ending please

or Harry is in love with Louis but he doesn’t know.

“Is this true?” Harry grabbed the beta by the shoulders. “Bryce, where did you hear that?”

“There’s rumors going around the castle,” he smirked. “stories about his beauty and his cold attitude. They know he is an omega only because of his scent, but he has never had a heat.”

“Do you know what this means?”

Bryce smirk grew into a big smile. “He can’t give you an heir.”

A cold prince, an alpha with nothing left to lose and a kingdom with a secret.

“Oh god, cut the bullshit Harry! Jesus Christ, you can’t even keep your lies straight. Mike has the memory of an elephant and can remember every single detail about every single person he’s ever met, so don’t stand there and tell me that he mixed you up with someone else.” He took back Harry’s cigarette. “I saw you exchanging lower chips for higher ones. I saw you counting the cards. There is no fucking way you won seven thousand dollars tonight honestly. And so I will repeat myself — I want in. Fifty-fifty.”

Harry was completely taken aback by the stunningly attractive man standing in front of him. He made several attempts to say something — opening and closing his mouth at least twice before he was finally able to string a few words together. “What? No. No way. No. Sorry, but I work alone.”

That was the truth too — he had never trusted anyone enough to let them get close, especially when it came to his scamming, so having a partner was completely, utterly out of the question.

“Don’t you think you need someone on the…” Louis’ tongue darted out, licking his lips as his eyes flickered to Harry’s mouth, one eyebrow cocking up. “…inside.”

Or - Harry is a scammer who drifts from casino to casino. Louis is the new waiter who wants in on the scam.

wake the morn and greet the dawn (with hearts entwined and free)

He didn’t ever really fall asleep. The dawn sun was peeking through his curtains by the time he realized he had stayed awake all night, and he figured it was too late to try and sleep now. Instead he bundled back into his coat, tucking his pelt into it and doing a fair bit better job at hiding it than he did as a child. He hesitantly opened the back door, locking it behind him and wandering down to the sea.

Harry stood there, foam lapping around his ankles, icy pin pricks shooting up his legs from the temperature and clouds appearing around his face with every exhale. The sun was peering weakly through the gray clouds, not yet strong enough to bring any warmth.
