I’m reblogging this again because the absolute joy in this video is something I haven’t seen in such a long time that I’d forgotten this aspect of humanity.
To celebrate Femslash February I wanted to so a fic rec of all my favorite girl direction fics! Personally I never really got into girl direction during the 1d era. I tried to read some a couple of times, but it wasn't my cup of tea. When I tried again in 2022, I absolutely fell in love! We're lucky enough to have some incredibly talented people in this fandom. It was a difficult task, but I did manage to narrow it down to four fic max per writer. Can you believe this is me showing some restraint and not just throwing all of my favorites at you? Anyways, happy reading!

Harry's got to stop touching herself while thinking about her roommate.
Except that she can't.
Or: Harry might be a bit in love with her roommate.

⚢ Overpowering Pinching Perfection by @dreamersdivin-headfirst
Louis/Harry | 1.7k | E | Girl Direction, PWP, Established Relationship
Harry balks, taking the phone away from her ear and–yep, Louis texted her fifteen times. As if she could feel any worse. “I’m so sorry.” A drop of liquid hits the hand on her desk, and she realizes she’s crying. Fuck.
“Haz, I know it’s late, but can you come over? I can heat up our dinner, maybe run you a bath.” Louis suggests, and Harry wishes she could kiss her through the screen.
She exhales shakily, “Yeah, okay. Be over soon.”
⚢ We Made a Start by @lululawrence
Louis/Harry | 1.8k | NR | Girl Direction, High School AU, Friends to Lovers
“Hey! I thought your phone got taken away after that stunt you pulled in Chem,” Louis said brightly, relieved her best friend was going to rescue her from her awful reading assignment, even if it was only temporarily.
“It was taken away after that stunt she pulled in Chem,” a voice that definitely wasn’t Harry’s said.
“Oh...hi, Anne,” Louis greeted, suddenly nervous. Anne had never called Louis before, not when Harry wasn’t already at Louis’ house for a sleepover or something.
“Hi, Louis,” Anne continued. “Based on your greeting, I’m afraid I already know the answer, but I have to ask.” Anne’s voice was obviously filled with worry despite the fact she was trying to veil it with calm. “Harry doesn’t happen to be at your house, does she?”
Or the one where Harry's hiding, Louis knows just where to find her, and more comes out of the evening than either expected.
⚢ Imagination into Reality by @tommokat
Louis/Harry | 1.8k | E | Girl Direction, Masturbation, Roommates
It’s more than just physical, it’s years and years of attraction and pining and something that tastes like love. But sometimes it heats up under her skin and boils over into this: frantically rutting herself on a folded pillow with the sound of Louis’ voice in her head.
“Harry?”
Wait. Wait, that voice is not in her head.
⚢ in your love i find release by @loveislarryislove
On a long carriage ride, Lady Harry desperately needs to pee. Her devoted maidservant Louis has a solution.
“Are you… quite sure?”
“I am yours to command, my lady,” the maid said. “Anything you need, I am honoured to give you.”
Harry swallowed hard. “All right,” she says again. “Please.”
She felt her skirts shift as the maid lifted them, moving to sit underneath. The woman’s dainty hands reached up between Harry’s legs, brushing against her clenched thighs, asking gentle entry.
They eventually change topics but it's still in the back of Harry's mind. So naturally, as soon as they get home, Harry drops her coat on the living room floor and gets naked from the waist up. With her bra in her hand she turns around to face the door. Louis enters the room and freezes in the middle of taking off her beanie. Her gaze slides down in a heartbeat, mouth hanging open. Harry waits. And waits. She doesn't know what she expected. She shouldn't have just stripped down first thing when they arrived home.
Harry has nipple piercings and she's more than willing to show them to Louis.

⚢ You got me in the back of your car like a star (is it wrong?) by @thebreadvansstuff
“What are we gonna do?” Louis asks, putting her feet up on the dashboard.
Harry stares at them, bare and unshaved.
“We’re gonna wait until someone helps us.” She shrugs nonchalantly, hoping it will help them both feel at ease.
“Fuck, that could take hours,” Louis groans.
From the corner of her eye, Harry catches her unbuttoning her jean shorts with a huff, and pulling her t-shirt over her head. She dumps it in the general direction of the back seat, and Harry is left staring at her bare skin, glowing golden under the sunset.
Or, Harry and Louis go on a road trip, their car breaks down and it's too hot to keep their clothes on.
⚢ Get Organized with Me! by @loulousmiles
Louis/Harry | 2.1k | M | Girl Direction, Tiktok
“Wait, Lou,” Harry said, genty grabbing Louis’s wrist to get her to pause. Louis immediately turned to face Harry, focus on her.
“What do you mean, you’re making a ‘Get Organized with Me’ video for TikTok? You usually only post videos of your soccer tricks. And what does that have to do with all this?” She gestured at the assorted items, many of them explicit, strewn across the duvet.
“Niall and I have a bet about who can post the TikTok that gets the most views,” Louis explained matter-of-factly.

“Wow, Harry,” Louis said. She sounded hesitant—maybe confused?—as she turned the box over in her hands and looked at the packaging. Louis’s brow furrowed before she seemed to remember her manners. “Thank you,” she said, looking back up at Harry. She cleared her throat. “I really wasn’t expecting this.”
“What do you mean, Lou?” Harry asked. “Isn’t this what you told me you wanted?"

Harry may have misunderstood what Louis said she wanted for her birthday slash Christmas present. It may be just the thing for them to finally share how they feel about one another.

Harry, Louis, Zayn and Liam are at a festival. It's the afternoon of the last day, and they're lounging on the grass before the action starts, still recovering from the night before. There's a bunch of sexual tension between H and L from where things left off in their drunken haze. When Louis tries to light a spliff, the wind makes it impossible to do so, for which Harry has an ingenious idea. And then one thing leads to another.

“Do you have a cigarette?”
If Harry thought the question would shock Louis, she would've been wrong. Louis doesn’t even look startled, even though it’s the first time one of them has spoken. She smirks at Harry in the mirror.
“We’re not supposed to do that anymore,” she says, her raspy voice full of mirth. Like she’s amused at Harry or something. “It’s bad for the paintings or whatever.”
“And you’re not a bad girl,” Harry says, turning to face Louis. She leans her hip against the counter, determined to both gain the upper hand and not think about why she wants to. “Right?”
Harry goes to the ladies’ room at the Met Gala expecting a cigarette and a break from the boredom. Instead, she gets Louis.
Harry wants to get Louis off while she drives. Louis thinks it's a bad idea. Harry will get her way, any way she can.

Niall invites all his friends over to help him get ready for his epic proposal-turned-surprise-party, but everything goes sideways when his girlfriend Emily comes home too early. Louis can't believe he's making them all hide, but she's just glad she didn't have to wait outside in the cold like they originally planned.
She's even more forgiving when she ends up in a compromising hiding position with Emily's friend Harry.

“Out with it, Styles,” Louis groans. Harry’s suddenly regretting this whole thing, and she’s sure she’s beet red now, so she just blurts it out so fast she’s not sure if Louis even understands her right away.
“I’ve never gotten head before.”
AU. Harry and Louis are roommates. Girls' night ends a little differently than usual.
Harry’s hand sprang out and took the arrow back in her grasp, Louis’ entire face having lit up when Harry spoke. “Thank you for returning this to me.”
“Well, it was my fault, right?” Louis gave her a big smile before glancing up at Harry’s ears and then over towards her target. “Fuck, are those all bullseyes?”
Harry shrugged. “I haven’t checked on them yet, but maybe.”
Louis’ eyebrows were raised. “I didn’t realize archery was such a big thing for deer hybrids.”
Pursing her lips, Harry tried to figure out how much to say. Why was Louis talking to her? Why had she called out in the first place? Was it because she thought Harry was a freak, like so many other humans?
“It isn’t for everyone,” Harry finally settled on.
Or the one where Harry is a deer hybrid trying to prove to her clan she's more than what's expected. When she meets Louis, a human, she thinks it's just a one time thing. It's not.

⚢ Under My Umbrella by @lululawrence
Louis/Harry | 5k | NR | Girl Direction, Famous/Non Famous
“It would really be a shame if you had to go out and ruin that gorgeous outfit. This won’t help the shoes, but at least it could help protect your hair and dress.”
As Louis held the umbrella out to her, the woman didn’t take it. She looked surprised, and Louis couldn’t blame her. It was absolutely pouring.
“It’s really okay to take it. My clothes can handle the rain. They’ve done it before and they will again.”
“No, no,” the woman said. “I couldn’t take that when you need it yourself.”Louis took another step closer and pressed the umbrella into the woman’s hand.
“I’ll be fine. I’m just headed home and it’s only about a five minute walk.”
The woman’s eyes filled with gratitude. “Thank you.”
Louis shrugged before heading towards her flat. “No problem. Have a good night.”
When Louis shares her favorite umbrella with a gorgeous woman on a dark and stormy night, she doesn't expect to see either of them again. She definitely didn't think that when she did, it would be on the cover of a gossip magazine.

Because I need some help. I need Louis Tomlinson to like me back."

Harry has a pretty simple life: school, work at the local flower boutique, and Sunday night dance parties with her two black cats, Matilda and Anna, to RAYE’s 21st Century Blues. Everything fits, slotted in with the fabric fibres of her life—organised chaos, as she likes to call it. That is, until the moving trucks pull up outside Harry's apartment complex, and someone starts moving into the previously empty flat next door.

“Well, um…” Harry was back to stammering, Louis feeling a strange pride in already having figured out how to fluster her. She noticed as a look of resolve settled on Harry’s features.
“Yes.” Harry cleared her throat. “I was restocking my pineapple pandan buns after the first morning rush when I heard a great laugh coming from across the way, and when I followed the sound I saw it was coming from your truck, from you. And I thought, ‘She—um, they—seem like someone to get to know.’”

⚢ I Couldn't Write You Off If I Tried by @homosociallyyours
Marcel is an accountant at one of the H&R Block offices in San Francisco. While she likes her job (and her life) just fine, there's no denying that it's a little bit boring and lonely.
Louis is a dancer at The Lusty Lady, a worker owned peep show in San Francisco that's not far from Marcel's office. When she sees a tweet from H&R Block's official twitter that claims to offer tax preparation help for exotic dancers, she's a little skeptical, but decides to call a local office to see if they're for real. They are-- or at least Marcel is.
Between the two of them, there's a little bit of taxes, a little bit of dancing, and a kind of chemistry that Marcel hopes is undeniable, because she's certainly not ready to write Louis off. Maybe just maybe Louis feels the same.

Harry hums a melody absentmindedly as she works, bent over the sewing table, when the bell above the door chimes suddenly, announcing the arrival of a customer.
Mid-stitch, Harry glances up.
“Good morning,” comes the woman’s feathery voice.Harry should probably welcome her, say something, anything, but she’s captivated by her slow and powerful walk, the click of her leather knee-high boots. With the needle hovering above the fabric, Harry slides her eyes up thick thighs, the maroon blazer that ends just above them, and the black knit dress that engulfs the woman’s figure, stretching obscenely around her bust.
Jesus Christ.
Or, Harry should probably stop obsessing over her customer’s boobs, but fate can’t keep her away from Louis.

“I just – I don’t know." Harry sighs. "I go on so many dates, and they’re all just… nothing. The guys are boring, or they’re terrible in bed, or there’s just no chemistry. It’s just so frustrating. Enough to make a girl want to give up on men altogether.”
“I mean, I did give up on men, like a decade ago,” Louis says, laughing. “Have you tried dating girls?”
It’s meant as a joke, but Harry looks thoughtful. “Maybe I should,” she says. “I’ve considered it, but never actually tried – I mean, goodness knows it can’t be any worse than some of the guys I’ve gone out with.”
Louis blinks. “Wait, do you – are you serious?”
“Why not?” Harry says, pulling out her phone. “I’ll change my Tinder settings right now, look.” She taps the screen a few times, navigating through the pages. “If it doesn’t pan out, then oh well, I’ve had some nice conversations with some nice girls – not the worst thing. Maybe we can even be friends. And if it does…” She smiles. “Well. You know.”

⚢ enough to make a girl blush by @disgruntledkittenface
“When I saw you on the sidewalk that day, I couldn't believe it. It was like getting another chance or something.”
“Another chance?”
“Yeah, I think I liked you from the minute I met you in Ms. Conrad’s kindergarten class. It just took me a while to realize that’s what it was. A crush.”
Louis blinks. “You had a crush on me? The whole time we knew each other?”
“The whole time,” Niall says, not looking embarrassed or upset at all. “I don’t want to mess anything up for you, but I really like you and I really like spending time with you, and I just… hope that’s okay.”
When Louis moves from her small hometown to the city, she runs into her childhood friend Niall. Despite her surprise at learning that Niall presented as an alpha, she’s immediately drawn to her. As their relationship progresses and Louis settles into life in the city, she learns that love, sex and identity aren’t always as simple as she’d been taught growing up.
And she wouldn’t have it any other way.

⚢ You Make Lovin' Fun by @homosociallyyours
Louis/Harry | 109.9k | E | Girl Direction, Age Difference, Silver Fox Louis, Daddy Kink
Harry is a 28 year old travel writer at a gay magazine who gets the assignment to go a lesbian cruise. She figures it's a nice chance to have some fun in the sun, but she's not expecting much else-- even if her partner and best friend are both encouraging her to hook up with someone while she's there.
When she locks eyes with a gorgeous silver fox from across the room, she starts to think she could've been wrong. There are lots of things standing in the way of anything real happening with her and Louis, but that doesn't stop them from falling for one another. True love isn't always easy, but they do make lovin' fun.
“There are such a lot of things that have no place in summer and autumn and spring. Everything that’s a little shy and a little rum. Some kind of night animals and people that don’t fit in with others and that nobody really believes in. They keep out of the way all year. And then when everything’s quiet and white and the nights are long and most people are asleep - then they appear.“
During lock down, without a loom or studio, she started stitching small woven patterns by hand, using leftover yarn and a lot patience. What began as a way to keep going became a way of working.
Now, even with her full studio back, she still creates these tiny, time-consuming pieces. They're not made to be worn or sold fast, they're made to be seen, to remind us that weaving is an art, not just something for clothes. She uses waste yarn, old stock, and plant fibers to avoid adding more to the pile of fast fashion.

“Pasta shape, Harold. Sure you’ve got one yeah?” More tiny breathy kisses. Warm air on Harry’s long neck. He feels Harry smiling as he switches sides. He thinks about all the other long parts of Harry’s body. Will he get to touch them, get to suck them too?

Harry’s the head chef at Azoff’s Catering, and he loves his job; the opportunity has always been more than he could dream of and he’s proud of the food he creates.
Until he meets Louis, an event coordinator rising through the ranks with his own company, and who reminds him of the dreams he once had for his own career.
While their easy friendship initially thrives in an industry known for chaos and betrayal, they soon discover they both have their secrets, and maybe it’s too late for either of them to try to find happiness outside of their work.
Especially when they realise that their happiness might rely on each other.
