Hearts All Whole by justanothershadeofblue

Father Louis Tomlinson hasn’t seen or talked to his high school boyfriend in over a decade, not since they went to different colleges and slowly grew apart. This means it’s a bit of a surprise when he looks out from the pulpit on the first Sunday in Advent and sees Harry Styles’ unmistakeable head poking up from a pew halfway back and on the left. How’s a priest supposed to make it through the madness of the holiday season with his very friendly, very attractive ex distracting him at every turn?

Chapter 1: Composure

Summary: Composure can be a hard thing to hold onto. From embarrassment to life or death scenarios, life tends to throw a lot of curve balls. And some get more thrown at them than others.

Bright Horses by justanothershadeofblue for the @onedirectionbigbang

many MANY thanks to the lovely @louishalo for the wonderful art (linked in the fic!!)

In 1950’s England, two students meet at seminary, both in pursuit of the priesthood. For one, taking holy orders is the culmination of a life-long devotion to the faith; to the other, it’s a means to an end. For both, it will be a life-changing experience.

The bright horses have broken free from the fields/They are horses of love, their manes full of fire/They are parting the cities, those bright burning horses/And everyone is hiding, no one makes a sound/And I’m by your side and I’m holding your hand/Bright horses of wonder springing from your burning hand -Nick Cave

It's the 20th anniversary of the One Direction hiatus, and the powers that be have decided that it's time for a reunion tour, and ideally, an album. Can five middle-aged lads thrust into a house in the middle of nowhere to make music sort out two decades worth of hurts, grudges, and resentments? Can they come together with enough love to make a show - and a relationship - that works?

The first fic in a a canon-divergent omegaverse series with endgame OT5, written for @wordplayfics prompt 8.1: nest.

Louis's in his nest when the text comes through, a simple link to the Daily Mail. He sighs deeply and closes his eyes. Daily Mail links never mean anything good, but if it's Oli sending it to him, it must be important. He opens his eyes and clicks the link.

Be Merry All

a larry advent fic by justanothershadeofblue

there is a specific sort of oppression that comes with a miserable so-cal christmas, when it’s dark and dirty and rainy or else it's too hot and too bright and everyone’s hustling, and your family is all far away and the laundry machines in your building are broken and you’ve eaten too much take-out and all you want is two seconds of quiet and maybe a morsel of holiday joy. an advent fic, posting daily (in theory).

Somewhere in the desert, a man is called by God to raise up a righteous generation, to bring forth the kingdom from his own seed and the wombs of his omegas. He will do it by any means necessary. A series in six parts.

A canon-divergent omegaverse series with endgame OT5, written for @wordplayfics 2024.

One Direction was unusual as a band with two betas in with the expected omega popstars, but they achieved global stardom in spite of it, traveling the world as a five-part sensation until beta Zayn left and the rest of the band went on hiatus shortly after. Years later, they're all living their separate lives, pursuing separate careers to varying levels of success, until a headline breaks: One Direction had a secret alpha all along.
