Colin Bridgerton/Penelope Featherington | Explicit | 17.8k | Chapters: 3/3 | Complete
Tags: Alternate Universe - Modern Setting, Famous Colin Bridgerton, Chef Colin Bridgerton, Romance Author Penelope Featherington, Friends With Benefits, Dirty Talk, Romantic Dirty Talk, Intimacy Kink, Vaginal Fingering, Cunnilingus, Facial, Tit Fuck, Blow Jobs, Light Food Play, Vaginal Sex
It had been a while since Penelope discovered Colin Bridgerton had the filthiest mouth in all of London (mostly because it had also been a while since they started sleeping together), so when his dirty talk begins to take a turn towards the romantic, she’s certain it means nothing. Except, well, does he really have to make ‘nothing’ sound so bloody… convincing?
Oh god, not to out myself as a Bridgerton fan, but after seeing your earlier reply, I did a quick search. I actually attempted to read one of that person's fics not two weeks ago. I got maybe three paragraphs in before doing a quick scroll to see if things improved, but nope. Completely out of character, nonsensical ranting writing style, just entirely unpleasant to read. There are some extremely talented fanfiction writers out there, but she is not one of them.
Probably overwrought and overwritten if her writing style on her blog is anything to go by. Prone to purple prose.
✤ Marcel AUs ✤

- Top 5 H/L Fics -
1️⃣ I hear you calling in the dead of night by Thelonelycoast / @peachbottomprince {M, 72k}
No one really notices Marcel Styles. In fact, Marcel’s so invisible that if his teachers don’t call on him in lessons - and they rarely do - Marcel can go whole days without speaking to anyone other than his mum, his sister, Gemma, his cat, Dusty and the school librarian, Alma. And if he just so happens to have a tiny, miniscule crush on the footie captain, Louis Tomlinson, well, that’s no one’s business but his own. Until Louis notices him back...
2️⃣ Our Lives, Non-Fiction by @indiaalphawhiskey {E, 113k}
Heralded as the next Neil Gaiman, Louis Tomlinson does not appreciate being told that his very serious novel is in dire need of a PR boost. Even worse, that it comes in the form of a joint book tour with the UK’s #1 online romance-writing sensation Marcel Styles. Already turbulent at best, their partnership takes a drastic turn when, overly stressed about his looming deadline, Marcel accidentally blurts out a secret: though he’s famed for his scorching hot literary love scenes, he is, actually, a virgin.
Convinced that the only way to rid himself of writer’s block is to gain some experience, Marcel asks Louis, author-to-author, to sleep with him – for Science. And of course Louis agrees because, well, what on Earth could possibly go wrong?
Or, a lesson in romance that proves that sometimes the best love stories aren’t always by the book.
3️⃣ But Why Wonder, Why Wonder? by @100percentsassy {E, 30k}
The one where Marcel Styles has improbably landed a job in the fashion industry, and Louis Tomlinson is the actor-turned-lingerie-designer he’s been infatuated with for years.
4️⃣ Kings by dolce_piccante {T, 13k}
Marcel receives an invitation to his ten year high school reunion, which brings up some painful memories of his youth. His lifelong best friend and roommate, Louis, is as supportive and kind as ever, but Marcel still has hesitations. Louis was Prom King. Marcel...was not.
Will Marcel make the reunion a night to remember with his former classmate, Zayn, who is newly wealthy, handsome, and reveals his childhood crush on Marcel? Or will Louis finally realize what everyone else has known all along?
5️⃣ blinded me with sweater vests by veterization {T, 13k}
Marcel really is the geekiest person Louis has ever seen with that gelled hair and that horrendous sweater vest, so it sucks that Louis really, really wants to get to know him.
HIDDEN GEMS:
💎 Marcel (series) by crimsontheory / @ireallysawanangel {E, 49k}
“Marcel!” Niall chirped through the phone, answering on the first ring. He was always so damn chipper. “Don’t tell me you actually want to go out tonight?” Niall may have been Marcel’s best friend since primary school, his only friend really, but the urge to murder him got stronger with each passing day. “Why did you give my number to some guy you work with?” Marcel blurted out, completely ignoring Niall’s question.
“Oh Marcey,” Niall said, his voice getting softer, but still loud because it was Niall after all. Marcel rolled his eyes at the nickname. It was something Niall picked up from Marcel’s mum and he hated it. “Louis is a really nice guy and he’s exactly your type. I thought you’d be up for it.”
Or the one where Niall gave Marcel’s number to someone he worked with and Marcel wasn’t too pleased about it.
💎 STRANGE HAPPENINGS AT THE DAILY PLANET! by @helloamhere {M, 31k}
Companies like LexCorp think they run the world. Louis does not think that anybody in particular runs the world; the world is a mess that no one is above, not even Lex Luthor, CEO and scion and heir to the empire, billionaire and genius. He’s walked around Metropolis like some kind of superhuman since Louis can remember, since they were both kids growing up in the city.
Nobody is superhuman. Everybody has a weakness. You just have to be persistent enough to find it. Louis cannot wait.
//
A Superman/or a Daily Planet, AU.
💎 I Love You (From My Head To-ma-toes) by yousopuglywrites / @yousopugly {E, 26k}
When Louis is dared to ask out the attractive Man in the Sweater Vest at the pub, he certainly doesn't expect their relationship to bloom the way it does. Featuring a dare that isn't really a dare, too many vegetable references, and two silly boys falling in love.
💎 Perfect Sky by @haloeverlasting {M, 11k}
Deep, deep down, Louis knows Niall hadn’t meant to do this. He knows that this really was a last minute conundrum Louis had found himself in. Louis could’ve muddled the dates just as easily as Niall could have misremembered them. This hurts for other, more difficult reasons.
This hurts because it was supposed to be Louis’ honeymoon.
Louis meets Marcel at the lowest point of his life. A few poorly timed jokes, and a cigarette (or twelve) later, Louis starts to think love’s not a sham after all.
💎 Do I Wanna Know (If This Feeling Flows Both Ways) by @fallinglikethis {T, 3k}
Marcel desperately wants Louis to like him so he lets Niall make him over. But will he still want Louis if he likes Marcel better after the makeover?

10 fav quotes from fics part 4!
happy mondayyyyyyyyyy
Louis drew in a sharp breath. Greengreengreen. -- @twopoppies
Though, if he’s being honest, it’s really not that gritty. There is a fucking Whole Foods up on the corner of Houston and Second Avenue after all. -- @crinkle-eyed-boo
And then the cat came along and made it even better. -- @homosociallyyours
“Very illuminating,” Harry deadpanned. He had no idea what Louis was going to ask, but he had a pretty good idea that he was going to say yes regardless. Louis had that effect on people. -- @loveislarryislove
What does Harry want, he wonders as he darts across the room, trying to get back to the elevators without spilling his tea on anyone. Does he want to be friends? Does he want to have sex again? Does he want to marry Louis and have his babies? -- supernope
He flips open the outdated House and Garden, and starts to thumb through it. His set-up is intricate, with the magazine propped up against his knees as he balances the pint of ice cream on his chest. Lesser men would not be able to handle it.
“You should come by,” Harry says, smiling at Louis from over his mug, dimple – sorry, crater – on full display. And really, Harry could ask for the moon, and Louis would be in conversation with NASA the next minute, working out a plan to get it for him. -- @backonefish
It’s embarrassing, really, how Louis turns him into a sixteen-year-old with a crush, but it is what it is. -- @screwstyles
“I was clearly nervous,” Harry protests, rolling his chair back up to this desk. “I bought cheese! I didn't know this was a thing! I didn't— Liam was there! Was it a date?” -- @kingsofeverything
“Well, beautiful,” Lecherous Restaurant Patron purred, drawing out the pregnant pause as Harry quelled a rising gag. -- @indiaalphawhiskey
I know it’s a joke, but I feel I must defend him as a fellow low density curly!
Our hair really looks like that when wet because curls live in curl clumps (families of strands that stick together to make one little ringlet), so our scalp is quite visible when our curls aren’t dry and fluffed (unlike if you have straight hair or higher density curls or coils). If our hair wasn’t like that, our curls would look like one big Hermione-type bush.
That’s why you don’t brush out dry curls cause you don’t wanna separate the natural families. 😂 It’s complicated.
Sweet curly India, you coming to end Bald Harry rumors with a precise description of your own hair structure, is officially the best post on my entire blog! 😍
I can’t stop picturing Harry with a “Hermoine-type bush” on his head now 🤣
To back you up (and because I’d fight any battle at your side) here is a collection of Harry’s wet curls over the years:
