“I'm not the kind of writer who'll write on his own. I'm definitely, maybe, partly down to "confidence in experience", but mostly really that's the beautiful thing about music: it's collaboration. I'm someone who's led by feel. I don't have a music degree. A lot far from it. So for me, it's really important that Nico, who's the producer across the whole album-- he has great sensibility, musically, slightly alternative way of thinking; but also, that's not really my world, all that. I come from a very instinctive point of view, even in the way that I write. Collaboration's vital for me, and when there are amazing moments in the room where-- like anything, right? Shared experiences is so special, when you're doing something together, and when you write a song that you're all really proud of... I've never actually written a song on my own that I was proud of. But I can imagine the feeling, difference between the two. There's no comparison. When you're doing it collectively, it's such a lovely feeling, it's like lovely connection you have with each other, you know.”

SHUT RHE FUCK UP

[sweet-but-vicious]

I love how their covers both mimic and counter each other

They're both fluffy and soft and pretty, but while Harry's is all sparkles, glamor, pink, and high class girlfriend coded Louis' is jeans, cozy, blue, and laid back boyfriend coded

I have a whole post about the way Lou is dressing for HDIGH promo and how it's incredibly different from Walls and FITF but first! AFHF!

[sweet-but-vicious]

EVEN MORE!

Harry is all fluffy and sunlight and pastels and vintage

While Lou is smooth and dark and primary and sporty

The same but different

Contrasting but complimentary

✤ Farm / Ranch Fics ✤

A series of posts with the top five fics of each category by kudos plus five more hidden gems from that category! Remember to leave kudos and a comment on the fics you enjoyed to show your appreciation! You can find the library's other recs here.

- Top 5 H/L Fics -

1️⃣ Wild And Unruly by @100percentsassy , gloria_andrews / @gloriaandrews {E, 123k}

Harry is a cowboy sitting on the biggest oil reservoir in Wyoming, and Louis is the paralegal assigned to pressure him into selling his land.

2️⃣ Naked & Proud by kiwikero / @icanhazzalou {E, 18k}

The town itself is tiny, as evidenced by the ten minutes it’s taken Louis to drive the entire thing. There’s not a single recognisable brand in sight—no Tesco or McDonald’s or even a bloody Starbucks. Lining the streets instead are mom and pop stores with names like ‘Jerry’s Burgers’ and ‘The Market Basket’ and…

“'Naked & Proud?'” Louis almost slams on the brakes at the outlandish sign, the name written in a seemingly innocent font, words curved around a large cartoon peach. He can’t help turning into the carpark, easing the car into a spot next to a beat up truck.

He isn’t sure what to make of it. Surely it isn’t a strip joint or sex shop, not with the families and little old ladies going in and out of the establishment. Some kind of nudist hangout, perhaps?

And, oh, God. Did Louis’ mother accidentally send him to live in a nudist colony?

In which Harry runs an organic store, not a nudist colony, and Louis doesn't know whether to be relieved or disappointed.

3️⃣ Ever Since I Tried Your Way by fairytalefemme {E, 25k}

Harry had been kissed before, but never like this.

He’d shared sweet, curious kisses behind bleachers and in soda shop booths, one or two more daring ones in cars parked on dark suburban streets, but the girls he’d kissed had never filled him with the desperation that erupted from Louis’ touch. He parted his lips and pulled him closer, as though he could breathe Louis straight into his lungs, as if he could swallow him. He wanted to consume Louis the way he consumed the body and blood of Christ. He wanted to place Louis on his tongue and feel him dissolve into a frothy mess of starch and saliva. He wanted to gulp him down until his teeth were stained purple and he was drunk on him. He wanted him in some violent holy way that made his hands shake where they were twisted in Louis’ shirt.

In 1949 Harry left his bride at the altar, running away from the only life he'd known. When a kindhearted farmer offers him a ride in his truck and a place to sleep the two find themselves inexplicably drawn together. Isolated on Louis' farm with nobody but a field of dairy cows to intrude, the men are finally able to explore the parts of themselves they've spent their lives hiding away.

4️⃣ put the stars in our eyes by pinkgelpen (crybaby) {E, 53k}

Louis goes to bed having ordered a nineteen year-old husband.

Louis is set to inherit the family farm after the death of his father, but after finding out that he needs to be married in order to do so, purchasing a nineteen year-old, mail-order husband named Harry Styles seems to be the easiest answer.

5️⃣ i'm not calling you a liar (just don't lie to me) by hazmesentir {M, 33k}

Louis can't stop lying. Harry runs a farm. Somehow, he squeezes the truth out of him.

HIDDEN GEMS:

💎 an everlasting eclipse by you_explode / @nobodymoves {M, 63k}

The sky is a deep blue and a soft breeze blows through the willow trees. From his position outside the railway station, Harry can see the centre of the village in one direction and rows of trees in the other. He feels his nerves could choke him, but so too could his excitement.

He is to have a family.

Anne of Green Gables/Anne With An E AU. In 1891, orphan Harry is adopted by the Teasdales and goes to live on their small farm in Holmes Chapel. In his new life he finds supportive relationships, he finds himself, and eventually, he finds a home.

💎 Into Daylight by crimsontheory / @ireallysawanangel {M, 12k}

When Louis is let go from his dream job he’s forced to move back in with his mom in his small hometown. In desperate need to make money again, Louis takes the only job he’s able to find at the local cattle ranch. Except the new owner of the ranch is the only person Louis was hoping he could avoid.

💎 Wild As You by bluegreenish / @greenblueish {M, 9k}

As much as Harry had not been overjoyed at the prospect of leaving Minnesota behind and starting high school in rural central Nebraska, it had definitely changed his life in ways staying at his childhood home never would have. Within days he had found fellow students to sit with at lunch, within weeks he had considered them friends, within months he had learned to love Nebraska, and within four years, he had wildly fallen in love with Louis Tomlinson.

or, a story about how Harry figures out whether the ideal of a house with a white picket fence in the suburbs of a medium-sized city is what he wants, or whether Louis' sheep ranch is the home his heart really desires.

💎 Never Seen A Boy Like YOU Before by @jaerie {E, 3k}

Of all the housemates out on the ranch Louis had had over the years, none of them could even come close to Harry. Louis would be settled with someone who picked up after themselves and pulled their weight out on this section of the ranch. The men that had passed through were all a mix of those things to varying degrees and Louis got along alright.

Harry was just different.

Which was perfect since Louis was different as well.

💎 What’s that flower you have on? by 4ureyesonly28 / @evilovesyou {G, 1k}

He smiles and whistles as he walks out the front door on his annual one day off. Niall and Liam wave at him from the stable and barn respectively. They’re smiling too, but it doesn’t look quite right on their faces. Louis doesn’t understand why they look so sad every time he does this.

Just like he does every year on September 28th, he walks to town in his best suit, a perfectly dried and preserved rose tucked into the button hole of his left lapel. He waves at the townsfolk and greets his friends, a genuine happy smile playing at his lips the entire way down to the train station.

Nobody dares comment, but Louis can tell they pity him. They think he’s being ridiculous. They think the whole thing is mad. But Louis knows. He just knows that Harry will show up.

We can live forever through the memories ♥️

Today (July 23) in 2010 - One Direction was born, and the world has never been the same since 💗💗💗💗💗

[enchantedlandcoffee]

Happy 15 years to One Direction, a.k.a my five favourite weirdos.

They have brought me so much joy and happiness and are the reason I've met so many wonderful people on this app. It's hard to put into words how much they mean to me.

[karukara]

Oh I will carry you over Fire and water for your love And I will hold you closer Hope your heart is strong enough When the night is coming down on you We will find a way through the dark

thought of 2015 OT5, beside campfire all comfy and warm while listening to this version (x) (the refrain~) or their SNL version (x)

🪢 The Nestuary by @homosociallyyours

(T, 5k) Louis has never gotten the hang of nesting, so when she gets an Instagram ad for a nest building service, she worries it's too good to be true. It's not, fortunately. She's hooked.

(E, 56k) Harry Styles is a high class, well-bred Omega attending Bosworth Academy - a prestigious boarding school looking over the small town on Kinsey. He has his whole life already planned for him, learning his place as the potential mate for an important Alpha, practicing his home making skills, and be obedient above all else.

🪢 You're Not My Type (still I fall) by Imogenlee / @imogenleewriter

(M, 38k) This is just a bit of rain; it'll blow over. Then Harry will just... well, alright, he isn't entirely sure what to do when the rain stops because he'll still be stuck and lost.

🪢 feed a fever, starve a heart by @insightfulinsomniac
