Hi Dani. :) / Even though I never got a fic I'm still really happy you did this exchange. I wrote my first fanfic novella (25K+) thanks to this exchange and that fic is like one of my babies now. / I'm sorry this exchange was so messy and confusing for you but I'm glad you did it. Thank you again. I love you. <3

Hi dear! This means a lot to me! Thank you very much! If you wouldnt mind too much, would you come off anon so I can ask you something? If you'd rather not, thats perfectly fine as well :) I love you too and thanks again! 💜💚💙

tell the nights apart (by the state of the heart and the shape of the moon) by niallszayn (T, 26k)

“We should go UFO hunting,” Niall says, and that’s how it all starts.

AU where Zayn and Niall go on a road trip and discover something they didn’t expect.

Looking for Astronauts by flares (T, 7k)

He doesn’t have a crush on Zayn. Like, Niall really doesn’t. It would be stupid. They’re in space. They’re the crew of the first human mission to Mars, for fuck’s sake. Niall doesn’t have time for crushes.

Or he shouldn’t, at least. Logically.

The Little MerZayn by PigSlay (T, 25k, side lilo)

The Little Mermaid AU where Zayn is Ariel and Niall is Prince Eric.

i should be over all the butterflies by hickeyziall (scentedziall) (G, 5k)

Niall would say he knows his own face pretty well. He’s seen himself grow from the crooked-toothed, ruddy-cheeked youngster he once was to his slimmer, more masculine face of the present.

But Zayn’s face was a whole other story, because back in Uni he was already ridiculously attractive, and it was unfair and rude and honestly, who looks that good all the time? Apparently his ex does, because he’s here, and Niall graduated 6 years ago and hasn’t seen that beautiful face of his since.

My Love Reveals Objects by eiqhties (G, 21k)

In which Niall and Zayn are both poetry fanatics, and Niall definitely doesn’t hate Zayn just because he wants to fuck him. No, really.

Shut up, Louis.

Mal Tourné by Neurtsy (M, 6k)

A facility of scientists perform an estranged experiment: injecting an alien strain of DNA into live human subjects. When one subject goes rogue, all scientists, surgeons, and other test subjects working on the secret project are attacked and killed by the hybrid creature they created. All but one - the sole scientist who showed the creature any kindness and mercy. What happens after the slaughter? An interesting development.

get some cash out (we're gonna tear up this town) by hickeyziall (scentedziall) (M, 5k)

"He thumbed the app open, and was immediately faced with his own latest tweet; a picture of himself and Niall cuddled close with their hands joined, golden bands glinting on their ring fingers. He noted Niall’s drunken smile, his eyes looking up at Zayn like the sun shines out of his ass, a pale arm hooked around the older boy’s waist, their cheeks red with alcohol, and Louis’ unmistakable dodgy photography and thumb in the corner of the photo.

Fuck."

aka zayn and niall get married in vegas while drunk.

am i lost, did you find me by niallszayn (G, 13k, side lilo)

uni au where zayn goes abroad to ireland for a year and needs help settling in. if only the first real irishman he meets wasn't such a dick.

I Know Where I Want to Be (By Your Side) by walking_travesty (M, 14k, side ziall)

“You’re gorgeous,” Harry says before he can stop himself. His eyes grow wide in horror when he realizes what he just had just done. Louis is just as surprised as Harry is, his mouth slightly open and his eyebrows raised. He looks away from Harry, looking down at his lap. He starts to shake his leg, and Harry is waiting for the moment when Louis calls him a freak and tells him to get out of his car, but that moment never comes.

Louis looks back up at him, his eyelashes fanning so beautifully against the apple’s of his cheeks that Harry feels close to tears.

“Thank you,” Louis whispers, his eyes full of tenderness. He looks at Harry’s lips, eyes drifting to them and then back up in an instant. Harry can feel his mouth go dry, his heart beating against his chest.

- A story in which Louis and Harry are neighbors and chaos ensues.

I’ll show you my heart. by arrowtomyheart (M, 30k)

“You fookin prick! Look where you are going!” He shouts, cold tea soaking through his clothing, sticking to his skin. “Watch where you’re going pal, I have work to do,” the person says back. Louis notices the professional camera hanging around his neck, and some keys dangling by his pocket. Along with his obnoxious demeanor, it more than enough for Louis to figure out that he is a paparazzi. Those assholes have no emotion, all they care about is to get a picture. “Yeah sure, you call stalking people and invading their privacy a job?” Louis spits back. His day had been going great up until he was harassed by this asshole, and now he is going to be even later running back home and changing his t-shirt.

Or as requested by dukelouis an AU where Harry is a famous celebrity and Louis is minding his own business in the streets when he gets knocked over by paparazzi trying to get photos of Harry.

escape from the city and follow the sun by annanotesxo (T, 24k)

“Niall - what the fuck do you mean, you’re *not* coming until Monday?”

“Listen, Lou…” He could hear Liam laughing in the background. “Li and I missed the connecting flight and there isn’t another one until Monday. Shit happens. You and Harry are just going to have to start the lads holiday without us.”

OR - the one where Niall and Liam ‘miss’ their flight to meet up with Louis and Harry on their lads’ holiday, leaving the two boys who don’t seem to speak to one another to try and not kill each other for three whole days.

call me maybe by swallowsmateforlife (T, 5k)

A middle-of-the-night walk home, a possible mugging, and a wrongly dialed phone number are the recipe for something beautiful.

Better Late Than Never by niallsdancer (NR, 6k)

Louis runs into Harry one day and they pretty much become instant best friends. Throughout their years of friendship, things happen and things are realized. One night, they make a pact to get married if they’re both still single at age 30. All seems to be going dandy until Harry shows up to a welcome home/30th birthday party with a new beau.

what will survive of us is love by shoulderbladesarewings  (G, 3k)

Blind AU

Til My Voice Breaks, Baby I love You by LSFOREVER (E, 23k, side ziam)

Louis is in the ultimate form of lazy - sloppily thrown on cap, open bag of crisps with crumbs spilling out, mouth full, and fingers itching behind his balls - when he hears a knock on the front door.

or, Louis’ family is vacationing in what happens to be the same place as Harry’s family over the summer. It’s awkward when they first meet, no thanks to Harry and his little yellow shorts.

Niam

Start It All Over Again by Narryornarry (NR, 6k)

Niall didn’t know he was in love with Liam, until he did.

Then it was too late.

Collaborations by Niallspecs (G, 10k)

Niall starts a YouTube channel to teach people how to play guitar, Liam’s going through personal struggles… and Harry, well he just likes to bake but he’s really bad at it.

Narry

Something Happens When I Hold Him by winglesswarrior (M, 24k, side lilo)

The night Niall is activated as a slayer is a fateful one, full of rain and blood.

That was two years ago and now all he wants to do is be a normal uni student in London. He wants to flirt with the cute teaching assistant that teaches his Intro to Programming class. He wants to do anything but kill vampires.

But people don’t retire from being slayers. And the monsters are still out there.

Ziam

Hollywood Love Affair by jwdish98 (T, 9k, side larry)

Liam really just needs a date for the annual New Year’s Eve party he attends. And, well, if something more happens to come from it then it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world, would it?

Now, if only he could stop constantly embarrassing himself, things might be going better.

Or, Liam is desperate, Louis is a concerned friend, Harry is just trying to be hip, Niall is entirely unhelpful, and Zayn is (according to Louis) Liam’s possibly axe-wielding murderer fake-boyfriend. That Liam may or may not have a massive crush on.

(Yeah. Yikes.)

Even Though The Whole World Is Burning by taggiecb (NR, 6k)

Best friends Liam, and Zayn have not been separated since they were young children thanks to being neighbors, best friends, and life long partners in crime. That is until Zayn gets a scholarship to study in New York. Zayn thinks it’s a good chance to get over his best friends who he’s been pining over since puberty, and Liam doesn’t realise it yet, but his world is about to be tuned upside down.

All this Delusion in our Heads by mmaree (E, 30k, side larry)

Liam hobbled to his bedroom, the bedroom that still felt like theirs. It was awful, this feeling that he couldn’t escape Zayn, couldn’t escape the life they had together.

Because no matter how much he, Louis, and Harry had tried to exorcise the ghost from these four walls, too much remained behind. Maybe Zayn and the others couldn’t see it, but it was there all the same. It was there: hidden in drawers, wrapped in curtains, reflected in mirrors, exposed in chipped paint, and tucked away in books. It was everywhere. Zayn was everywhere.

And it was killing him.

*****

Or the one where Zayn contracts amnesia, Liam has regrets, and the entire universe conspires against them…until it doesn’t.

Nouis

come back into the good life by arcticsound (T, 15k)

“We’ll have everything we’ve ever dreamed of. Just you wait.”

Louis smiles a little, “isn’t that what we always say?”

“But this time, we’ll actually have the money.”

Lirry

document the world inside his skin by traumatic (M, 5k)

“Liam, I’m…I’m ace.” Liam smiles, “I’m glad we agree on something. You’re an amazing guy, H.” “No, no,” Harry shakes his head as he grins softly, “I mean I’m ace. Ace as in asexual.”

Harry knows who he is, who he’s always been, but Liam’s a little out of the loop. Telling him goes better than expected.

Lilo

Let Go and Feel Alive by winglesswarrior (E, 12k side ziall)

After an all too public break up, song writer Louis Tomlinson leaves London for a small oceanfront town a few hours away. He’s running away from the feelings that have haunted him for years and made him the target for bullies and nasty comments, but his ‘strictly into girls’ policy is put into question when he meets the all too sexy neighbor, Liam, that lives in the flat downstairs. It only gets worse when Louis realizes he can hear everything that Liam gets up to.

[1dbreakexchange-blog]

Okay, so. I went through the remaining fics left and defaulted the pinch hits for people who have defaulted. That being said. There are only five remaining fics. I expect two of them this week and will contact the other three pinch hitters to get an idea of when they’ll post. The end is near people and I, for one, am quite happy about that. I’ve enjoyed being able to run this and help you guys find more to read but I am ready to have one less thing to worry about. Please, let me know if you have any more questions.

Hi, hope you're doing well! :) just wondering if you were going to make posts for the last few revealed fics. Also do you have any more fics in your queue? Thanks x

You don’t need any more pinch hitters, right?

when are the next fics going to be posted?? i’m excited af to read them!

when are the authors of the pinch hitter fics going to be revealed? x

Hey everyone. Sorry I’m so late with these. I revealed the last two fics I have in the queue and I’m expecting two more by the fifth of September.. As for the rest… I don’t know. I’m going to have to go through and contact the pinch hitters. There are only two fics left unassigned and tbh, I’m not going to assign them to anyone bc they both defaulted. So. I’m making the posts immediately after this for the ones I just revealed. There are now 24 fics (26 after I get the last two) for this exchange. There should be 38. I don’t know what to do. I’ll probably go through and make sure that the ones who are in need of posting are for people who (originally) signed up. Like, if I’ve got a pinch hitter for someone who defaulted, I’m not going to worry about it. 

Sorry for the disappointment everyone but I have a million and one things on my plate right now and I’m struggling to juggle them all. Let me know if you have anymore questions and I’ll be better about answering. Sorry again.

[1dbreakexchange-blog]
