Fandom: ONE DIRECTION
Pairing: OT5 (Harry/Liam/Louis/Niall/Zayn)
Length: ~19,700 words
Author on LJ: disarm_d

Why this must be read:

And then Louis says, “I bet £10,000 I could go longer without wanking than all of you,” which was probably his first mistake.
Louis steps on a used condom on the bus, calls a band meeting, and a competition that literally no one wants to be a part of spirals quickly out of control as the boys take increasingly desperate measures to wind each other up. (Spoiler alert for happy endings all around.)

In which Louis has some regrets, Liam isn’t worried, Niall wants to help, Harry tries to forfeit, and Zayn may or may not be bothered.

Ha, I love that one! I will say that it strongly resembles a story I read in *NSync fandom over a decade ago. I don't think it's ripping it off, but there's some parallels for sure.

And anyway, this one is better.

There was more than one of these written in bandom as well. I think a bunch of dumb boys living on a tour bus together lends itself well to the trope. :))
