Title: Nothing Less Than Poetry and Songs
Fandom: One Direction RPF
Disclaimer: some of them are real people and some aren’t; the fictional ones belong to me, the real ones belong to themselves.
Warnings: I am making shit up about how publishing works, how television shows work, and how fan conventions work. Please just go with it. References to past spousal abuse (emotional and physical). A lack of self-care and minor disordered eating. Talk of depressive episodes.
Pairings: Harry/Louis (eventually), past OMC/Louis, Nick Grimshaw has a crush on Louis
Rating: PGish
Note: I’ve done a little research into what university might be near Doncaster but it’s such a minor thing in the fic. If anything’s wrong, please just handwave it. I’ve also changed some things about the art festival for that university to suit my timeline. Also, nothing about the BBC office as mentioned is accurate, so please just go with it. Probably, the publishing house is wrong, too.
Another note: this is set in 2015-2016 but I’ve aged everyone in Harry & Louis’ families up by four years with the age differences remaining the same. Anyone else’s age has been changed at my whim.

Thanks be to

classics_lover for britpicking and betaing!

Louis’ popular book series is being turned into 9-episode show on the BBC, and there’s a man with curls he keeps bumping into.

Wordcount: WIP; 35000 words posted, 56000 written

Note: inspired by a tumblr post

Another note: I wrote 56000 words in three months and then decided nobody but me cared about it so I stopped writing because it stopped being fun. But I WANT to finish this fic for myself, if nobody else. I have the entire damn thing plotted out, after all, and that's only happened once before, on a story half this length. And I still have half the plot go, so no telling how long it's going to be.

Still another note: what I have of this is the longest thing I've ever written, including my thesis. I'm doing research (since I was just making shit up for a medieval, magical realism society) and I changed the title from what it originally was, and I'm going to reread all 56000+ words in the near future because I do dearly love this 'verse. And also, once it's finished, all I have to change are the names and it'll be an original novel, so.

Anyway.

Fantasy AU where Crown Prince Louis has to choose a suitor, four of whom are Prince Liam, Lord Niall, Prince Zayn, and Harry the apprentice cook. Meanwhile, there’s a treasonous conspiracy afoot.

Title: so many words we’re not sayin’

My little sister dragged me into this fandom and I have written actualfax real person fic. *sigh*

Last year, Louis left the box marked Shifter unchecked. He does the same this year. He knows if he makes it through that he’ll have to tell them; but he also knows he won’t make it through.

Another note: I have begun a continuation into the second film, where things go way AU.

The thing Brian O’Connor does best is lie, and he lies to himself the best of all.

“Hey, babe,” Bucky says into the phone, trying to smile, “remember that favor I was doin’ Potts, was gonna be the last job before I retired?”

Steve sighs heavily. “Yeah, Buck, I remember.”

“Well, see, Hammer tried to kill us instead’a payin’ us, so…” He lets it hang there for a moment and instead of saving him from the awkwardness, Steve waits him out. “We need a thief, Stevie. They were kickin’ around names and, well. You’re the best.”

Yes, this is a Leverage AU.

"And who might you be?" Methos asks the not-quite-mortal rummaging through his cabinets.

The man, who looks quite beat all to hell and worn down to nothing, long dark hair hanging dank past his shoulders, clothes fit only for burning, whirls to face him, throwing a knife as he spins. Methos, who saw the beginning of the motion as the man started to move, catches the blade and raises an eyebrow.

“That was rude,” he informs the man, who is staring at him in wonder.

Prompt: Avengers, all, the Avengers are superstars brought together to record a song to raise money for charity

Note: if Lene, Eivind, and Øyvind are talking to each other, it’s probably in Norwegian

Another note: my plan is for at least 25 chapters; length of the chapters will vary. The warnings will be updated should the need arise. What is up there currently are things I know for a fact will happen or happened at some point in the past and either being alluded to or discussed.

Yet another note: If I mention a song in here, I have probably written it already/am going to write it. Also, the movies have been sketched out. Ask if you’d like; when this is done (hopefully it will be completed), I may post an appendix with all of them, anyway. I namedrop a lot of Marvel characters as actors/singers/writers what have you.

Final note: clichéd title is clichéd -- but. Holy shit is it appropriate.

The Avengers and their various hangers-on as actors, singers, writers, artists -- all brought together by Nick Fury's SHIELD Productions for the charity extravaganza of the century.

You've got the Norwegian punk-rock band Ragnarök trying to break into the American musician scene; the pop duo Widow's Eye taking a break from their world tour; Oscar winner Tony Stark making a comeback after a massive derailment due to substance addictions; poet/screenwriter Bruce Banner trying to make a comeback due to a severe depressive episode; Sam Wilson, an Oscar contender whose star is on the rise trying to get Peggy Carter and Steve Rogers' graphic novel series turned into a movie; and finally, Jimmy Barnes, former child star who lost his way and wants to leave acting for good.

We prove who we are in times of adversity, someone said once. Draco cannot remember who, or when, or why. But these are the most adverse times of his life, and this is not a world he can stand to live in. No longer. What is the point of being victorious if all that’s left is an ocean of blood?

Klaine serial killer AU. Blaine's good at being adorable. Kurt's even better at appearing helpless.

So, I've been writing this story for awhile. The first chapter got posted here in one of my comment_fic entries, but the story has grown since then. I'm writing it piecemeal, as prompts and the desire hit me, with no set plan or endgame. I'm just... writing. It's fun.

Anyway. Thought I'd post a link here.

Prompt: There is no William McKinley High school. It's a cover. The students actually go to Sky High, the school for superheroes and sidekicks in training! New Directions is still a glee club, and the Cheerios are still the cheer squad.

Who has what power? Who's a sidekick and who's a hero? The filler could have a lot of fun coming up with powers.

No real request for pairings, except I hate Faberry and Pezberry. I like most of the others. Bonus points for Puckurt, but it's not required.

“I’m sorry, Coach,” he says, hands clasped in front of him and looking up at her with sincere, innocent eyes, “but I don’t believe in power placement. It’s a terrible practice, and all it does is force students into discriminatory and detrimental cliques.”

Dead silence while Kurt watches his Auntie Sue try to peek out of Coach Sylvester’s eyes. “Let me see if I understand,” Coach Sylvester growls. “You’re refusing to show me your power?”

“Yes, ma’am,” Kurt says respectfully.

“Sidekick!” she roars.

Prompt:

Blaine is an incredible singer. He loves doing it and he knows that he is amazing. His love of singing stems from the fact that when he performs, he can forget the pressures and abuse of his home and just lose himself in the music. That's why he sings cutesy, fun songs that really don't have much emotional investment.

Then he comes to McKinley and really enjoys singing with New Directions but doesn't know how to react to the homework individual assignments. Mr. Schue assigns some personal topic like "Vulnerability" "Home" "Family".

Blaine has no idea how to really react to the assignment and performs for the group. Mr. Schue pulls him aside and tells him that he really didn't get the assignment and that there was no real emotion in the performance. He asks Blaine to do it again and after a few days he performs again.

This time Blaine throws in all of his anger and resentment towards his family's intolerance of him (maybe even abuse if you want to go there) and gives the best performance of his life. The rest of the Glee Club is stunned by his emotions and suddenly realize that there is a lot more to Blaine than they originally thought.

( This is what he loves, almost as much as he loves Kurt. He can lose himself in the song, sing someone else's story and forget his own. )

Notes: so, lunardreamedmade this post of plotwolves in need of good homes. The result of me reading said list is the darkly depressing story that follows.
More notes: I’ve made Gordon eight years older than Dean.
Also more notes: I’ve AUed werewolves. They’re people who fully change into wolves, though about twice as big as normal ones.
Still more notes: when I refer to a moon within the story, I mean all three nights spent as a wolf.
Spouse of notes the first: werewolves, in this lil’verse of mine, are immortal. They age from the moment they’re bitten, stopping at about middle age. Two werewolves mating results in a born ‘wolf, which have high status in the pack.
