  • Season 3, Episode 5: (now I realize that the world outside) it's bigger than me [a fic by we_are_the_same]
    Today Mia reads (now I realize that the world outside) it's bigger than me (AO3 | Fic Post) by @we_are_the_same
    It starts with a phone call from Liam.
    “Lou,” it sounds urgent, the way that Liam gets when he’s worried, and Louis sits up straighter, conditioned to that tone even when he had hated it the first few years in the band.
    “What’s wrong?” he asks, his brain immediately trying to play catch up, wondering where his keys are and if he can get away with leaving the house without a shower, because it doesn’t matter how long it’s been, it doesn’t matter how much physical distance there is between them, if any of his boys call and need him he’ll be there in a heartbeat. Or as soon as he can, at least.
    “Did you mean to post that to your public account?”
    Or: Louis accidentally comes out

  • Season 3, Episode 3: Finally, You and I (Collide) [a fic by lululawrence]

    Today Mia reads Finally, You and I (Collide) (AO3 | Fic Post) by @lululawrence

    Funny how Louis could sum up everything he’d had with Zayn so easily.

    Ex. One syllable, two letters. Fourteen years of friendship and marriage and everything else they had been to each other, put together and explained to anyone who asked with that one tiny word. Ex. Ex-Best Friend. Ex-Lover. Ex-Husband. Ex-everything, really. Zayn had truly become his everything, and Louis still ached in the spaces within that used to be filled by him, even all these years later.

    Sometimes love was a bitch.

    Or the five times Louis was accidentally wooed by cookies and the one time he was purposefully wooed by brownies.

  • Season 2, Episode 15: room for your love underneath this tree [a fic by we_are_the_same]

    Just in time for the holidays, we are back with our final episode of the season. But we bring good tidings: the podfic pals will be back in 2024 for season 3! We want to take this moment to thank everyone who has listened to our episodes, the many wonderful writers who have allowed us to record their fics, and the lovely people who spread the word by reblogging our posts. You all rock! Happy holidays from the pals x

    Today Mia will be reading room for your love underneath this tree (AO3 | Fic Post) by we_are_the_same (@so-why-let-your-voice-be-tamed on Tumblr).

    “IwannameetHarryStyles,” Daisy mumbles, and Louis blinks.

    “What?”

    “She says she wants to meet Harry Styles.” Phoebe pipes up, and Louis blinks again, absently switches the camera to himself because he knows that his followers will want to catch his baffled expression.

    “You-” he starts, and then stops himself, because he did tell her she could ask for anything she wanted, and how can he go back on his word and tell her that he doesn’t actually have the power to make that happen?

    Because Harry Styles is – he’s next level kind of famous. Louis has two million subscribers on his YouTube, but Harry has eighteen times as many followers on his Twitter alone. He’s had three number one hits in the last year, and his last album had charted at the top spot for a record breaking 27 weeks. He’s a singer, actor and philanthropist, and there is no way in hell that Louis can get him to come meet Daisy for Christmas.

    So of course he laughs, even if it’s a little bit breathless, and nods at her. “One Harry Styles for Christmas, coming right up.”

  • Season 2, Episode 14: I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm [a fic by haloeverlasting]

    We have another Christmas fic for you! This week Tabby reads I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm (AO3 | Fic Post) by @haloeverlasting.

    Louis takes a deep breath, and replies very quickly to get it over with, “Well, see, I don’t have any heat in my flat right now and it’s hard enough to go to sleep when I’m bloody freezing—”

    “Oh god. And my music’s gone and made it even worse,” Harry cuts in.

    “Well, it only went out today,” Louis explains, “So it wasn’t that bad before, erm. Now.”

    “Before?” Harry asks, horrified. “How long has this been?”

    “Oh, erm,” Louis folds his hands where they hang in front of him and admits, “All week.”

     Harry visibly wilts. He looks so sad, it makes Louis feel awful. He’s gone and crushed someone’s Christmas spirit. Some beautiful boy who looks like Danny Zuko is sad now and it’s Louis’ fault, which means he doesn’t stand a chance at being the cute neighbor from the floor below. And now he’s going to have to sleep in his freezing cold flat knowing he may as well have ruined Christmas.

    Or, Louis’ heat is out, Harry’s a terrible upstairs neighbor, and an empty Christmas tree is the perfect excuse to fall in love.

  • Season 2, Episode 13: Oh Little Town of BATHlehem [a fic by londonfoginacup]
    This week Emmu reads Oh Little Town of BATHlehem (⁠⁠AO3⁠⁠⁠)⁠ by @londonfoginacup.
    Louis Tomlinson needs a small pink bathtub.
    He needs it.
    His fucking family had forgotten to include him in the email chain for
    Doris for Christmas, with her very carefully thought out Christmas list, until every easy item was gone. Only when he asked Lottie if anyone else had heard from Doris yet, only then did they realise their mistake and forward the email chain to him.
    So, it’s either a small pink bathtub or an entire bouncy castle. And if he had the money for a bouncy castle that would be fine, but that fucker costs more than his monthly rent and he simply does not make that much working as an optometrist assistant.
