You can ship Harry with whomever you like, but your ship will never canonicly have him thinking about kissing his lover as his last thought before he died. Hinny supremacy.

I Wake With Your Memory Over Me (What A Real Fuckin' Legacy) (completed, 43.1k) by @wearingaberetinparis. Rated E.

“Just saying, Evans,” he then said, lowering his voice slightly, “if you ever want to truly have a good time…” She snorted now, hoping that this would compensate for the heat that rushed to her cheeks. “Oh, please,” she replied, “I’m not yet that desperate.” (Oh, God, she was.)

Strawberry Mentos & Black Liquorice (WIP, 19.1k as of 31 May 2025) by @livelaughlovetoread. Rated E.

Many think James and Lily Potter got together in 7th year, but their story is much more complicated. When Sirius said 'Nah, She didn't,' it held multitudes. But we don't know about what happened because of the darkness that made them hide their love. This story shines a light on what was meant by those three words.

YOU'VE WON A PRIZE!!! click HERE 2 claim (WIP, 9.5k as of 31 May 2025) by @littlefoldedpaperstars. Rated T.

A tale of scams and influencers. Or: How James and Lily found each other, with the help of Peter Pettigrew, the most easily manipulated man on this planet.

The Prophet's Fable: Teenage Mystic (WIP, 40.8k as of 31 May 2025) by @petals2fish. Rated M.

Lily liked to believe (no, she insisted) that she could handle the visions. That if she just stayed calm and clever enough, she could outwit fate like it was an overdramatic diary entry, not a prophet's fable. The trouble was, fate didn’t seem particularly interested in being rewritten. And Lily (brilliant, stubborn, and slightly sleep-deprived) was both a Seer and a Muggleborn. A cursed combination, really, when all she wanted was to kiss some cute boys, become Head Girl, and hold her friendships together without worrying she might someday dream of them all ending. It was all a bit much for a girl who also kept having visions about a certain boy with messy black hair. Part 1 of 3 of The Prophet's Fable

Show Not Your Face, But Your Heart's Desire (WIP, 47.6k as of 31 May 2025) by @ohmygodshesinsane. Rated T.

When young Miss Evans's brother-in-law, Mr Dursley, announces that she must be married by the summer's end or else find herself returned to Cokeworth destitute and prospectless, Lily enlists the help of her dearest friend Marlene. Upon arriving at the countryside estate of Blackheath, one Mr James Potter interrupts all of Lily's best-laid plans with his insurmountable arrogance and penchant for annoying her. With time running out, Lily has to act quickly to secure her future -- and the freedom of her heart and mind.

Thunderstruck (WIP, 1.2k as of 31 May 2025) by @const3llationz. Rated T.

Lily has no patience for boys that can fly. Too bad she's stuck with one. But, anything for their satyr friend, right? Marauders Demigod AU.

lucky charm (completed, 24.9k) by @maraudersinparadise. Rated T.

James Potter, star Chaser, finds himself in a tremendous slump, so his agent and best mate Sirius Black takes matter to his own hands - landing James in St. Mungo's and reuniting them with Healer in Training Lily Evans, an incident that has the potential to change James career (and life) forever.

Night Moves (completed, 1.3k) by @yallthemwitches. Rated T.

“And by checking you mean…” He shifts a hand, placing it firm against her heart. His skin sears against hers, long fingers tucking under the neckline just enough to crop up a handful of recent memories where the same fingers have traveled much farther downwards. “Checking to see why your heart rate hasn’t calmed down,” James says solemnly. “I take your fears very seriously…which means there is only one solution.”

Chemical Fingerprint (completed, 9.9k) by @livelaughlovetoread. Rated E.

Every gem has a chemical fingerprint - a unique pattern that identifies its composition, which scientists can easily determine. The ruby in the Potter family ring is composed of aluminon oxide, chromium, and traces of vanadium, which gives it a slight purplish hue. But beyond its physical makeup lies something far more important: the lasting imprint it leaves on those who wear it. Passed down through generations, the ring is now ready to find its way to a new owner: Lily Evans.

sunlit marble (completed, 1.5k) by @gigglesandfreckles-hp. Rated T.

But his eyes are on her as he spreads his arms wide in invitation, and she doesn’t care that it’s broad daylight or that half the school is watching and that her dormmates will absolutely take the piss out of her later. She starts moving. Running. Because in moments like this, she can get away with things she usually wouldn’t. Like flinging herself at James Potter.

Marriage by Capture

Strangers to Lovers, cosy fantasy

Hinny

Explicit

The new law states anyone who manages to capture you can marry you. Ginny leaves her home and family behind to avoid a forced marriage and tries her hardest to stay out of the grip of men. Harry was orphaned in his teens and has been traveling since, doing jobs here and there but leaving before they realise he has magic. One faithful day, the two have a rather unpleasant meeting in the woods and then another…

Chapter 1: The cave

Harry woke up in a cave, his hands bound together behind his back. His feet were free but the stalagmites and stalactites in front of him would slow down his escape, if he were to make one. He wasn’t even sure how someone had managed to drag him behind it at all.

He noticed a woman by the fire, poking it with a stick to get it going. She had long red hair going down to her middle, the top part put into a braid to keep it out of her face. He grunted as he adjusted his position and noticed his head was throbbing. Then he remembered getting whacked in the head.

As soon as she noticed that he was awake, she took up her sword and walked into the cave towards him. An unneeded measure, he was currently no threat to her.

“How did you find me?” she asked, her face hidden by the shadow.

He blinked for a moment. “How can I find you if I don’t know who you are?”

She knelt down so he could look at her face. She had thin curvy lips and a cute round nose to go with it. Her brown eyes were focused, but the colour was muted by the lack of direct sunlight. Most of all, she looked angry, and quite strong.

“Ah,” he said. “Pleased to make your acquaintance,” he told her. “But I didn’t find you, because I wasn’t looking for you.”

She huffed, twirling her sword around. “That’s what they all say.”

“All?” he abruptly looked around in search of the last poor lad that got captured, but to his relief there was no skeleton to be found. “Is capturing men a hobby for you?”

nice pair of characters who trust each other more than anyone else in the whole entire world it would sure be a shame if one of them betrayed that trust for the sake of trying to keep the other alive. it would sure be a shame to love someone so much you destroy them

I relate to this so much! I too occasionally find myself wondering what the original reactions of classic stories were like.

Chapter 12: Monday, 13 September 1976

This was it. This was what I’d seen. The green light. The hollow, terrible stillness that followed. The feeling of helplessness. Wandless. Paralyzed. Someone had cast Avada Kedavra in my vision.

Someone had died.

And now… I can’t stop wondering.

Wondering if it’s like before. Like with William Kedlig in fourth year—how every time I kissed him, I had a vision of his death. And how he stayed dead in every vision I had when kissing him. Who knows what actually gets him in the end, of course, I never saw that…but I saw him dead in a casket. I saw Kedlig's funeral. His crying future wife. I saw it like I was there. 

At first, I thought it was just a coincidence. Then, I convinced myself it wasn’t real. Then I made myself forget. But now, after this vision—after kissing James—it’s all come rushing back.

What if it’s happening again? What if kissing someone means seeing the way they’ll die? What if I’ve been cursed? What if every kiss is a prophecy I can’t stop from coming true? And if it is James I saw dying in that flash of green (wandless, helpless, gone before he even hit the ground then I feel awful for him. What a horrible, horrible way to go.

And what a terrible thing for me to be: a witch with a kiss of death.
