Remus: So What’s For Dinner? 

Remus: Sorry, I'm late to the party. I've been doing things. 

Sirius, entering with an unbuttoned shirt: I got caught up doing things too. 

James: No way, Remus was late too! What a coincidence!

“I don’t read that much anymore”

Lily's Yearbook

"Sev does Hogwarts publish yearbooks every year?" Lily asks curiously from her spot at the library table.

Severus, who has taken up residence in the seat directly next to Lily, pointedly ignoring the other two Gryffindors at the table, grimaces at Lily's question.

"No Lily, that's a muggle tradition, why would we need such a thing?" Snape shakes his head tersely before pushing his nose farther into his Potions book.

Lily shrugs and hums lightly, "I guess I just think yearbooks are brilliant, oh! Especially the signing! Everyone leaves messages for each other and you get to look through them all summer."

Lily's eyes sparkle with excitement at the prospect of receiving handwritten notes from all of her dearest friend's at Hogwarts, ones that she can re-read during her time away from the magical world.

"Lily I'd forgotten all about yearbooks, it would be so wonderful if Hogwarts had them!" Little Mary Macdonald squeals from across the library table, her smile gleaming.

Marlene also perks up at Lily's excitement, "What's a yearbook?"

These new interjections cause the lone Slytherin tucked into the corner of the table to let out an annoyed huff, "Lily I cannot study here any longer, can we go somewhere that is actually quiet?" Snape directs his sneer at the two girls across from them.

Lily looks over at her two friends, who both have varying looks of disdain now plastered on their eleven year old faces.

"Sure Sev, I'll see you guys at dinner, Okay? Save me a seat if I'm late?" Lily quickly packs her books into her bag so that she can catch up with an already exiting Severus Snape.

"Oh, he is such a git, I don't understand why Lily puts up with that," Marlene snaps, "He doesn't even want her hanging out with people from her own house."

Mary nods in agreement, watching as the two finally disappear out through the library doors. There's a loud echo as the doors slowly close, and then Mary suddenly turns towards Marlene with wild eyes.

"I think I have an idea."

Marlene snorts, "An idea? That's a new one for you."

Mary gasps over dramatically at Marlene's quip, but continues smiling, "No Marly, we're gonna get Lily those signatures, like the ones in a yearbook, so that she can read our notes while she's stuck with him all summer."

"Wow Mary, you do put together some good ideas here and there!"

This was a lot of fun for me to do, but it also took me a while to get everything how I wanted. You'll notice that as they get older their handwriting (and for some even their writing utencils) change and grow with them. There are a few different themes and relationships going on throughout this whole thing so I hope you enjoy all the little easter eggs. Also you'll notice that it is heavily smudged and (wet?) even in some places, that's because I tried to make it seem as though it was pulled from an archive, whether from Lily's belongings or even Hogwarts. Let me know if you can't read anything specific and I'll tell you what it says. It's not perfect but I'm very proud of it!

Why do people give my wife (aka Lily Evans) zero personality? Like, yeah she was a goody two shoes, but not JUST that. She called James a “arrogant toe rag” and Snape “Snivillous” to spite him, so she was not short of insults. Also she faced voldemort THREE times before she died, and that’s JUST the canon stuff.

Plus she’s friends with (or dating, depending on what you ship) MARY MACDONALD. You know she HAD to be cool.

I’m so tired of Lily saying something funny, snarky, or smart in headcanons and fanfics and people in the comments saying things like “that’s more something blah-blah-blah would say”

Like SHUT UP!!! Lily is a QUEEN. Stop narrowing her down to just ONE of her traits- being a prefect who follows the rules more often than not. I’m not saying she doesn’t- but she has WAY better traits than just that.

And I’m not saying she had zero flaws. She did, but it’s ok. Don’t make her perfect. But don’t villainize her. You forgive the skittles for being death eaters, Sirius for the prank, but not Lily for being a little angry in someone’s fic?

yesss also the hand that feeds is AMAZING

i NEED a dorlene fanfiction full of feelings and emotions and love PLEASE and thank you

James: Yum, thanks! Kidnapper: puts more tape over their mouth I said stop eating it.
