Top 10 longest AU fics :
1. A Love Like War by @downgoesanotherhero [E, 173.8k]
the one in which Louis Tomlinson is a cliched rock star: he’s got everything except for love. But then he meets Harry Styles; the man that, against all odds, saves him in every way a person can be saved, even when Louis didn’t know he needed saving in the first place.
2. Even The Stars Fall For You by Larry_Darling0124 [M, 152.4k]
Louis W. Tomlinson is the 23 year old son of a multi-billionaire, Simon Cowell, and working at his father’s company. Harry Styles is an 18 year old who just graduated high school and is taking a year off before going to college. […] Louis is entranced by Harry and Harry is taken aback that the gorgeous Louis is interested in him. Harry has no idea what he’s getting himself into though. In a world of money, contracts, and jealousy… can a relationship ever really work? Or was it doomed from the start?
3. Luscious blood by Deidei [M, 116.8k]
Louis Tomlinson, a human, has been living in poor living conditions together with his mother since he was born. Ever since he can remember he has loathed the stronger, faster, more developed kind that rule this world; Vampires. But will his opinion change after he meets his soul mate that is an arrogant, royal vampire named Harry Styles…
4. Boy Falls From the Sky by @fookinloosah [?, 110.3k]
Superheroes. America is full of them — complete with masks, nauseating pseudonyms, and neon spandex suits. There’s none of that nonsense in Britain, thank you very much…until Harry Styles’ X Factor audition takes an unexpected turn, and Britain’s first hero is born.
Also featuring Louis as a man of many masks, Zayn the rebel comic artist, Liam as Britain’s counter-attack to Justin Bieber, and Niall the trusty guitarist.
5. Here In The Afterglow by @fondleeds [?, 88.6k]
1970’s AU. In a tiny town in Idaho, Louis’ life is changed forever by the arrival of a curious stranger.
6. Adore You by @isthatyoularry [M, 66.9k]
Against his wishes, Harry spends the holidays at his family’s summer estate, and is reluctantly pulled into a courtship he didn’t ask for. Harry doesn’t want to get married, but Louis does. They don’t fit, but then again they really, really do.
Vaguely set in the 1920’s. Headpieces, jazz, fashionable canes, and flapper dresses, and that.
7. Yet in Thy Dark Streets Shineth by @juliusschmidt [M, 57.7k]
Louis’ life has become the very thing he’s always dreaded: routine. His job is steady, his bills are paid, his friends are preoccupied, his siblings are mostly old enough not to need him, and his mom keeps pestering him about attending church. Apparently, the new minister pulls rainbows and unicorns out of his robes.
Advent arrives three months into Harry’s first call as associate pastor at St. Andrews. Life is… not perfect. He’s still figuring out how do his job and the holidays bring a whole bundle of extra stress. On top of which, he has no friends or family nearby with whom he can decompress. Louis Tomlinson shows up to worship in the nick of time.
8. All You Get is Sound by kiddle [?, 50.9k]
A month ago, Harry kissed his best friend. He didn’t think it through at the time. His girlfriend just cheated on him, he was drunk and vulnerable, and Louis was telling him everything he needed to hear. Now he can’t stop thinking about how much he wants it to happen again.
Louis is not in love with his best friend. There’s no way it could ever work out, he tells himself over and over. Besides, Harry probably doesn’t even remember the kiss happened. It shouldn’t have happened. He can’t lose Harry because of it. […]
9. Wasn’t expecting that by @exquisitetrouble [T, 49.7k]
There were two ways of dealing with ignorant, homophobic parents. First one involved talking, explaining and tons of patience, and well no one ever accused Louis of being patient. That’s probably why he always chose the second road: instead of reasoning- piss them the fuck off. The only thing he needed was over the top, flamboyant fake boyfriend to make that happened. And while Harry may not be exactly what he was looking for in a fake boyfriend, he is everything he ever wanted in a real one.
10. You’ll Be My American Boy by @headscarvesandtattoos [M, 44.6k]
the one where Harry’s an American studying abroad in London and Louis ends up showing Harry more than just London
