A Jily Fic Coming Oct. 2024 - Rated M - Subscribe for Notification

Lily and James Potters’ love was fiery, filled with passion, tragedy, and love. It was not a fast ignition of a flame that proceeded to burn bright. No, it was a flame that was lit on the Hogwarts Express before anyone had joined the compartment. It burned brighter as their years progressed, and it was lit ablaze in their seventh year. It burned vividly until the day they died. Their love was described by many as a light that shined during the darkest parts of the war. This is their story.

With the warm reception I received after posting Mistle-Wow, I have decided to start posting my long Jily fic earlier than expected.

This is a long fic, canon-compliant, and centered around Jily.

The first chapter will detail James Potter's early years before Hogwarts. The next chapters will be for Sirius, Remus, Peter, Severus, and Lily. After that, we will get into the first ride of the Hogwarts Express, and continue on until Jily's death.

When I say long, I do mean it. I have plans for almost every month of their life once they start Hogwarts. Which means we are looking at over 120 chapters.

I plan on updating once a month at first, however, I aim to move into more frequent updates after the new year.

I hope you are excited, the first chapter is ~15k words.

SIRIUS BLACK RETURNS: A BLACK LIVES EXCLUSIVE!

Black Lives, the most watched reality TV show first in the UK, then in the world, from Pensieve Production, is well-known, and so is the family the show follows. The Blacks, from the late English nobility, started this project almost fifteen years ago, and it had since been going strong. The shows followed closely Walburga and Orion Black (or as many call them, THE power couple), beloved Alphard Black, Cygnus and Druella Black, as well as frequent apparition from Lucrecia née Black now Prewett and her husband Ignatius. Other usuals guest stars were Arcturus Black, the family patriarch, and the five family children: Bellatrix, Andromeda, Narcissa, Sirius, and Regulus, whom the show started centering itself on.

Andromeda created the scandal nine years ago when, then aged eighteen, she renounced her family to marry a commoner. (Since then, she gave birth to an adorable daughter!) Four years later — and thus five years from now — the heir of the family himself, Sirius Black, stopped appearing on the show. The family at the time told us the sixteen years-old wanted to focus on both his studies and mental health and as such, was taking a much-needed break. Of course, multiple theories spawned following this statement — but need for it no more!

Just this morning, Pensieve Production announced Sirius Black’s return in an upcoming, special, exclusive season!

“It is with great joy that we are welcoming Sirius back with us,” states Tom Riddle, the Blacks’ manager. “We missed him during those years, but we know how important it was for him. And now, he will, if he wishes so, tell you more about it himself!”

We got more details about this exclusive season as well:

“We will follow Sirius and his brother Regulus on a vacation across the Mediterranean,” announced Riddle — to the glee of quite a lot of us, I would assume! “They will be joined by a few friends, some of which are quite familiar to our long-time viewers.”

Some of those friends are already confirmed. As such, we will greet James Potter (Sirius Black’s long-term best friend, and maybe more), as well as Peter Pettigrew, Remus Lupin, and a young lady somes could have forgotten but who appeared a few times in Sirius' last season on the show, Mary Macdonald.

Riddle teased—

“What are you reading?”

Remus startles, his phone almost falling out of his hands; Sirius, thankfully, catches it. Not thankfully, he starts reading the article — and groans rather unnecessarily, if anyone asks Remus.

“How many times did I tell you not to read those?”

“It was in my recommendations?” he tries innocently.

Sirius sends him an unimpressed look.

“James!” he hollers, and then waits; from somewhere on the ground floor of their house, James hollers right back.

“Yes?”

“We need to keep Remus away from Internet!”

“Hey!” he protests, but Sirius just drops a kiss into his hair with a smirk and no answer.

“Okay!” unhelpfully agrees James; it would be it if Lily hadn’t appeared in the doorway, then, a pile of her favorite fluffy towels in her arms.

“What for?”

Sirius waves Remus's phone as if its answer enough. Lily reaches for it, checks the screen, and sighs.

“Oh, Remus,” she says with a soft, concerned tone he hates having directed at him.

“I just wanted to read a few comments,” he mutters.

“It’s my first time and even I know it’s a bad idea,” she notes, handing the phone back to Sirius. They exchange a look, and she nods decidedly before leaving again.

“Easy to say, everyone loves her,” Remus mutters some more. He has grown disaccoutumed of the show and all it entails over the years, perhaps. He’s feeling almost anxious now.

Sirius drops on the bed beside him, putting an arm around his shoulders and embracing him protectively.

“And we love you,” he reminds him softly.

Remus burrows himself against his chest, feeling Sirius’ heartbeat under his ear. “Yeah, I know. I love you too.”

“Good.” Sirius kisses his hair again, tender and fond, and Remus wants to bottle it and drink it every time he feels down.

Harry, thoughtfully: Do you ever notice how Sirius and Professor Lupin always sit next to each other at dinner?

Hermione:

Harry, even more thoughtfully: And...they always share a couch when we sit in the sitting room. And it's a small couch.

Hermione:

Harry, getting suspicious, now: And, you know, I saw Professor Lupin leaving Sirius's bedroom the other night!

Hermione:

Harry, nodding to himself: They must be really close friends.

Hermione: *bangs head on table*

Lily, to James, looking down from above: Oh, he is your son.

[theprongspotter]

Remus: Prongs… why is Regulus bright yellow?

James, holding a yellow highlighter: :D

Regulus, sighing: Evans told him that those markers are used to ‘highlight important things.’

I can't believe this fandom has fallen so hard that Jily is a secondary ship even for the characters involved

what do you mean jily is boring?

Jily is enemies to friends to lovers

Jily is He was a bitch to everyone but HER

Jily is Jock Boy×Bookworm Girl

Jily is If the world is mean to her I would fight the world

Jily is If we take this couple out of the show, there would be no show

Jily is everything your ship's fanfics want to frame as their own; put some respect on their love

marauders headcanon of the day: after 5th year lily writes EXCLUSIVELY in pen. she will not even touch a quill because she wants everyone to know that she is not ashamed to be muggleborn.

[lilyslark]

how fitting is it that lily evans, a muggleborn witch, was the one to bring down voldemort? how fitting is it that her love invoked ancient magic, when voldemort didn’t even believe that she had the right to perform magic? how fitting is it that she vanquished his powers through her sheer love for her half-blooded son?

and she was just about the most defiant muggleborn witch imaginable. this is a girl who watched her muggleborn friends being targeted and refused to stay silent, even to her best friend. this is a girl who rejected a pureblooded boy because he was an arrogant bully. this is a girl who defended her best friend against two purebloods, but wasn’t afraid to drop him when he exposed his true bigotry. this is a girl who had the audacity to fall in love with the same pureblooded boy who had never stopped loving her. this is a girl who loved “blood traitors” and werewolves and her muggle family as much as she loved anyone else.

this is a woman who joined the order of the phoenix to fight for others like her. this is a woman who defied voldemort three times alongside her husband. this is a woman who never gave up on her muggle sister. this is a woman who loved her “blood traitor” husband and her half-blooded son with everything she had. this is a woman who was reduced to nothing more than a “silly girl” (dh 344) and a “cockroach” (dh 739) by voldemort, even as he overlooked her most powerful form of magic.

and how heartbreaking is it that the wizarding world never truly understood her impact? harry may have been their “savior”, but it was lily who brought the end of the first war. it was her love that guided harry and helped him to finally defeat the most powerful dark wizard in the world.

lily evans-potter, the unsung savior of the wizarding world.

[mrstellmeafuckingsecret]

rip lily and james potter, you wouldve loved harry

[myfavcharacterdidntdrown]

Sirius, James, Peter & Remus: *screaming*

Lily: *runs into the room* What’s wrong, Remus?!

Sirius: Wait, why are you asking Remus, when James, Peter and I are also here?

Lily: Because Remus wouldn’t scream unless it’s an emergency. You three scream whenever you have the chance.
