billow and breeze (islands and seas) (102K) for the @1dhistoricalficfest

It was bright; that was the first thing Louis could recall. With a groan, he winced at the throbbing behind the sockets of his eyes and rubbed his temples in an effort to soothe the pain. Maybe he really did hit his head when he took his tumble. The omega squinted as he looked at the surrounding rolling hills and fog hanging over the countryside. As strange as it was, the world felt different, though it looked practically the same.

Disoriented and confused, Louis padded through the moss and listened for his husband. “Liam?” he croaked shakily. Nothing but a symphony of woodland creatures met his ears. His footsteps were muted by mossy green grass beneath his feet and soil fragrant as he neared the crest of the hill. At the top, he froze, lips parted in horror and eyes widening at the expanse of empty farmland—not a soul in sight. It had only been less than ten minutes prior that he could see Inverness from the crest, but now there was nothing.

“Impossible,” he whispered to himself, shaking his head in disbelief—his mind not quite able to make sense of it.

Harry Styles, an aspiring painter lacks inspiration. Though when Louis Tomlinson, a farmer come milkman shows up on his doorstep, Harry feels his luck may have changed.

Welcome to the 2022 1D Historical Fic Fest, a fest made for history buffs, by a history buff! Historical fics are severely underrated in this fandom and deserve more recognition for the hard work and research put into them by the writers, which is why this fest now exists!

The point of this fest is to encourage more historical fics into the fandom, whether that be a rewrite of a Greek classic, the hilarious conversation inside the Trojan horse, or an adventure across the Delaware river with George Washington... whatever you decide!

Want to participate? Currently, prompt submissions are now open! You can send up to 4 prompts here up until January 14th, 2022 @ 12:00 AM CT.

Before you send a prompt, be sure to read the rules. There’s some important information in there, so be sure to give it a thorough read! 

Author Sign-Up’s will begin January 16th @ 10:00 AM CT, and end January 23rd @ 12:00 AM CT. If you’d like a reminder before then, you can either send a message here on Tumblr or Twitter, or an email at [email protected].

Louis looked even more beautiful under the glow of a million candles with stars in his eyes and the moon splashing light over his golden skin. He was a warm summer night with sea salt clinging to your skin, or the feeling of hearing the angelic flourish of strings from a lyre performing Hymn to the Muse for the very first time. He was transformative. Metamorphic. Life altering. “Is that him?” The words floated in one ear and out the other, hardly a whisper in the back of his mind when he was looking at Louis. Harry exhaled shakily when Louis’ eyes met his, breath rattling behind his ribs, and his chest tightened with the smile of an angel looking back at him. He looked beautiful in his cream chiton with a purple cloak draped over his shoulder, an iris tucked behind his ear. “What gave him away?” Liam laughed, thick meaty arm slinging around Harry’s shoulders and breaking him from his reverie. “Was it the look of a starved man scrambling for his final scrap of food?”
