Do you think that when Mskingbean89 was planning out ATYD, that they knew that they would basically create the foundation to our cult known as “the marauders fandom”?
Jegulily au where there are soul mate marks and lily has a sun and a star on her wrists and james has a flower and a star on his like hip area and they get together and they both are crushing hard on sirius’ little sister but are sad because she doesn’t match their last mark. Then regulus runs away from home and comes out as trans and when they hear his name they both freak out and corner him. Regulus shows they the sun and flower mark he has on his shoulders then they all smoochie kiss and live happily ever after.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
James Potter was just okay to most, but he was fucking hot to Lily Evans.
Blackinnon Fest 2024 | Day 6
Word Count: 314
Prompt: Quaint
The man in the portrait casually leaned against the golden frame. He eyed Marlene suspiciously; his narrow, dark eyes followed the movement of her quill. He had raised his eyebrows and stretched his head to get a better view of her chart as if he could look straight through her. Like an exam invigilator, he hovered behind her, which sent cold shivers down her spine.
Afraid to make a sound, she nudged Lily under the table and nodded towards the portrait.
"Do you see that guy over there?" she whispered.
"Who? Black? Yeah, he's been staring for a while," Lily shrugged. She had barely looked up from the paper to notice him.
"Not Sirius," she replied loud enough for the professor to raise their head.
"Uhhhh," Lily looked intrigued, "already on first-name terms. Suddenly, he's 'Sirius'."
She mustered the four boys at the table conspicuously until Sirius and James caught her watching, and they had to suppress to burst out laughing in the classroom.
The wizard in the portrait cleared his throat loudly and began walking up and down the painting. His shoes made a clicking sound with every step. That was when Lily finally noticed him.
"You have another admirer," Lily giggled, "creepy portrait guy. Looks like Venus is totally in your favour this month."
"Ms Evans and Ms McKinnon, five points from Gryffindor for chatting in class," the professor said without looking up from their newspaper, "I'm sure you are still missing the descending houses in your chart."
"We were just talking about Venus in the 8th house, professor," Marlene replied seriously, which nearly sent Lily into a laughing fit, "we were wondering what impact Venus had on relationships."
"Oh yes, interesting," the professor folded his paper, "Venus in the house of Transformation, Death, Possession and Intimacy. The time for passionate love, that new beginning after a breakup, the deep connection with each other."
Lily raised her eyebrows and nodded in Sirius' direction.
"But beware!" the professor continued, "it's also the time for the big mysteries in life, the time for lurking strangers in the dark and healing from hardship. Very well, Ms McKinnon 10 points to Gryffindor."
"Very well, Ms McKinnon," Lily repeated mockingly, "thank you for sharing your love life with us."
Marlene rolled her eyes and threw a piece of parchment at her, "Èist do bheul!"
"Oh, be quiet yourself. Now that you know you're in for passionate love, why not ask him out?"
"Only if you finally go out with that Potter guy," Marlene made a couple of kissing sounds.
"Urgh, I'd rather go on a date with that creepy portrait guy; that mysterious stranger lurking in the dark."
"Quiet! Or I'll take another 5 points off Gryffindor!" the professor warned them, and they spent the rest of the lesson quietly completing their astrology charts.
When the lesson was finished and the girls packed their stuff, James, Sirius, Remus and Peter approached their table.
Lily dove out of the way and left the room as quickly as possible, leaving Marlene alone with the boys. Sirius grinned obnoxiously with that air of haughtiness as he leaned against her table and blocked the way to the door.
"I was wondering if you still need help with Venus in your 8th house", he smirked.
Marlene shouldered her bag, crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows. The other boys were already in stitches with laughter.
"As it happens, Scorpio is the ruler of the 8th house, and I should know all about that."
Marlene burst out laughing, "That's the quaintest pickup line I've ever heard!"
Sirius raised his eyebrows, too, tilted his head and said, "But did it work?"
lily evans being a nickname person is so special to me. not only do we canonically have “tuney”, “sev”, and “wormy”, but she literally married into a friend group with secret code names.
and there’s literally no limit to her nicknaming ability. I mean, we’re already pushing it with “wormy”—a nickname for a nickname. so why stop there. “jamie”, “pads”, and “moons” when she’s feeling affectionate. “monty” and “effie” for her in-laws. “jimmy” when she just wants to fuck with james. “harold” when it’s three in the morning and she’s sleep-deprived and harry won’t go back to sleep. need I go on.
JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY JAMES AND LILY–
“James is getting a bit frustrated shut up here, he tries not to show it but I can tell – also, Dumbledore’s still got his Invisibility Cloak, so no chance of little excursions. If you could visit, it would cheer him up so much.”
"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark lord knows not... and either but died at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies.."
these kids though (or, lily and james potter still crop up in my sketches and probably will forever)
can you imagine lily finding the marauders map and trying to open it
mr. moony would like to ask lily if she could please put the map down before all hell breaks loose
mr. padfoot would like to tell lily not to put the map down because he’s quite looking forward to mr. prongs shitting his pants
mr. moony would like to tell mr. padfoot to stop saying shit
mr. wormtail would like to tell lily her hair looks nice today and also is mr. prongs doing okay?
mr. prongs is not doing okay
mr. padfoot would like to ask lily if she could find this piece of parchment more often
mr. prongs would like to say fuck you to mr. padfoot and would also like to ask lily if she has ever had feelings for a lad named james potter
mr. moony would like to slam his head against a wall
mr. wormtail thinks perhaps lily should put this parchment down and walk away
mr. prongs does not want lily to put this down as he’s still waiting on an answer about the whole james potter thing
mr. padfoot is having the time of his life
mr. padfoot would also like to say that this james fellow seems like an awful human being who smells like dung. at least, that’s mr. padfoot’s impression
mr. prongs would like to tell mr. padfoot to SHUT THE HELL UP
mr. moony apologizes to lily
mr. prongs would like to say that james potter is in fact a wonderful bloke and mr. prongs has heard he would make a wonderful boyfriend
mr. padfoot thinks mr. prongs is good at being subtle
mr. prongs thinks mr. padfoot should stick his head up his ass
and lily’s like “what the fuck”
Right so I’m rewatching Descendants and when I see the Did I Mention scène all I can think of is James and Lily Potter
hot take: i love jily but i hate the hc that james kept asking her out for seven years despite her saying no multiple times
