Summary: Every year eager apprentices and their renowned masters gather at the Hogsmeade Yuletide Fair in order to showcase their advancements to the people of the land. So, it should come to no one’s surprise—really—that one Sirius Black would find this to be the perfect opportunity to test out his latest creation. Nor should anyone be shocked—at all—that Severus Snape ends up having a terrible day.

Notes: This was my first time ever writing for this ship and I hope I’ve done them justice, both Severus and Sirius are amongst my favorites so I have a ton of love for them ❤️💚 to get into their mood/dynamic I completely immersed myself in the stunning starprince artwork from incredibly talented artist @intotheswollenriver (I swear this artist is the backbone of this ship) 😮‍💨🪭

Excerpt below

Because Severus’ life is anything but uncomplicated, it doesn’t take longer than seven minutes once they set foot in Hogsmeade for their group to cross paths with the miscreant apprentices of Dumbledore.

A stupid grin breaks on James Potter’s face as he notices their group—more specifically, Lily.

Sirius Black, as always, is smirking in that infuriating way of his. Long black hair, that rivals Bellatrix’s, tied up in a ponytail.

Much to Severus’ chagrin, he stands three inches taller than him. With impeccable robes and boots, as one would expect of any member of House Black.

His smirk grows as he notices Severus staring.

“There’s a painter next to our booth, we can commission him a portrait of me if you want, Snivelus.” Red, it’s red all over his vision. “But I gotta tell you, I’m a bit of a jealous type, dunno how I feel about sharing a spot above your bed next to your Riddle love-notes.”

If Severus is not careful, he’ll break his project with how hard he’s squeezing the ceramic shaker in his hands.

“Stop being mean, Sirius.” It’s Bellatrix who answers, and the shift in the other Black is immediate, his smirk transforming into a more genuine smile. “Also, Severus doesn’t have any love-notes written about our master hanging above his bedding, that’s just ridiculous.”

Black laughs and raises his hands in defeat.

Before the cousins can say anymore, Potter opens his big mouth.

“Hey Lily! Looking lovely as always, I love that, what’s that? Er—snake and flower embroidery on your robes.” Daft as he is, he doesn’t seem to notice how the temperature seems to drop even lower than what it already is.

“Thank you, James.” Lily’s smile is friendly, but polite. “I made it myself.” And the boy obviously misses how the same exact pattern—a snake wrapped around a lily flower—is also embroidered to Bellatrix’s black robes.

“That’s so amazing, you’re amazing—” Potter laughs. “What are you up to anyway? Would you like to—”

A few things happen simultaneously.

Black sighs like someone who’s about to witness something he doesn’t want to and Bellatrix steps in front of Lily, blocking Potter’s view. A smile that doesn’t even pretend to be anything but predatory widens in her striking face.

“Oh, hello James, it’s lovely to see you.” And she continues speaking over his confused ‘Hey… Bellatrix,’ “Did you hear the news? Apparently Lucius wants to court my sister, and as a matter of fact I think he just told us he was taking her on a walk, isn’t that right, Lilian?” Bellatrix doesn’t look back at Lily, whose green eyes widen for just a second before she slowly nods.

“Yes, Bella, to the rose garden with the mistletoe canopy.” The color drains from James Potter’s face.

“What,” he says dumbly.

“Oh yes, and you know how Cissy is, ever so the dutiful daughter,” Severus mentally scoffs, if there’s something Narcissa isn’t, it’s dutiful. But of all the Black children, she’s the only one who’s got Bellatrix fooled.

Narcissa plays her part perfectly, but at the end of the day she does whatever she wants.

“She would never say no to Lucius… you know there’s been talk about their marriage since they were babies,” she continues. “Just the other day Nicola was telling my mother how she couldn’t wait for more blonde haired Malfoy children to run around the Manor.”

Women are devious creatures, thinks Severus as he watches James Potter, with all color drained from him, sprint away from their group.

Lucius is secretive, but it’s hard to keep a big secret in Master Riddle’s workshop. They all know Malfoy’s been meeting with Evan’s cousin, Pandora, since the summer solstice.

And Severus knows Narcissa enjoys giving Potter a hard time. She told him once, “He’s young, he needs to get his impatience out of his system before I give him a third of my attention—Potter gets bored, only boys get bored,” with a small smirk.

Women.

“Sirius.” The eldest Black says in a warning tone.

“Bellatrix.” He responds nonchalantly.

“I told you that you should be more discerning of your company.”

“James is a great guy, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

And before her temper starts acting up, Black pulls his cousin into a hug and kisses her cheek sweetly. The elder girl nearly disappears as she’s engulfed by his brutish form.

She’s soon laughing and chastising him, but with no bite.

There’s a total of five people who can handle Bellatrix without her being aware of it: Master Riddle, her grandfather, Sirius, Narcissa and Lily.

Severus sometimes wonders what would happen if she were to ever become aware of it.

“So, where’s Reggie?” Asks Black as he herds his cousin to a slow-paced walk. His long arm hung over her shoulder. To anyone walking, they could pass off as twins.

It’s the small weight of Lily’s hand on his forearm that stops him from silently slipping away from the nightmare-ish company.

“Let’s go, Sev?” Lily’s green eyes are kind, her freckles less pronounced with the colder season.

what do we feel abt bellatrix x lily?? bcuz honestly the age gap, bad girl x good girl dinamics, enemies to lovers, hot wild sex damn i could go on forever

[thistlecatfics]

heaven closed the gates on me by nocturn (4k, Bellatrix/Lily, M)

Bellatrix Black’s plaid skirt is three inches higher than the school dress code allows (Lily knows because once, on her knees by the administrative office, red-faced and ruler in hand, she measured). Her lips are much too red (no doubt that lipstick Lily saw her shoplifting at the mall last Saturday). And her soul is too far gone down the path of temptation. (Still, Lily believes she can save her.) 

if you were ever obsessed with the movie Saved! like I was then you should definitely read this fic.

From my comment:

AHHHHHHHHH this is so amazing. I can't believe I tried to read this in public. I just grinned like an idiot the entire time. The pacing! The imagery! The subject! Bellatrix!!!!!!

Read and scream about the corrupting influence of Bellatrix Black <3

Day 31: When the Castle

Lily wanders into a drafty castle. She isn’t prepared to meet her hosts.

Lily/Narcissa, Lily/Andromeda, Lily/Bellatrix, M, 500 words

Dubious Consent, Vampires, Biting

—

Lily had wandered in one stormy night. 

The castle was dreary but a welcome respite against the freezing rain and bone-breaking winds. An old servant named Kreacher, snarling and ill-natured, led her up the stairs and into a cosy room, a fire lit in the grate, dark curtains drawn around the bed.

-♦️-

She never saw her hosts. She took meals in the massive dining hall, roast duck and rare fruits and luscious wines, Kreacher bringing more and more until she was bursting at the seams.

She always ate alone.

-♦️-

She liked to explore the castle during the day. Empty room after empty room, most covered in a fine layer of dust. She wondered about her hosts — to live in such luxury yet refuse to touch it.

The wind rattled against the windows, howling and moaning.

The sound was nearly human.

-♦️-

At night when the castle was nearly unbearable with cold, Lily crawled into bed in her nightgown and wool socks, the torches gleaming on the walls, the shadows lengthening in the corners. The blanket pressed down, a suffocating weight over her tired form. 

She heard whispers in the dark.

“Innocent,” they said.

“Delicious.”

“Human.”

There were hands on her — one, two, three sets, maybe more. On her waist, on her shoulders, in her hair. They slid beneath the covers, beneath her gown, and kneaded soft flesh, caressed her chilled body until she became feverish with heat.

She couldn’t move. She couldn’t breathe.

“Must we?” a voice asked.

“Mustn’t we?” another voice added.

“We must,” yet another voice answered.

A chill went down Lily’s spine, yet her body refused to move. Her eyes refused to open.

There were lips on her — one, two, three sets. On her neck, on her wrists, on her thighs. They parted around muscle and bone, feeling out her heartbeat, searching out her blood.

Moans and whimpers and screams. It could have been her. It could have been a dream.

She arched into phantom hands, phantom lips trailing across her cheek, phantom hips grinding down against hers and pinning her to the bed. Her gasps were loud, ragged in the silence of the room.

She tried to think about James, her long-lost love, but it had never felt like this with James.

There were teeth against her collarbone, gently tracing, slowly tightening.

“Sweet,” said a voice.

Then, there was pain and the feeling of weightlessness. Lily floated through it, pale faces crossing her path, dark hair long and curled, red lips, a sharp flashing smile. The hands on her waist disappeared. The lips on her wrists vanished.

She opened her eyes and bolted upright in bed, her heart beating frantically. She brought a hand to her neck. It was sore but otherwise unblemished.

The room was empty and dark, the torches on the wall extinguished. The door was locked, just like it had been before.

Lily lay back and closed her eyes, but sleep would not come. Not that night. Not for many more.

for @sapphicmicrofics

prompt: pathetic

ship: bellalily

word count: 320

“That’s just pathetic,” Bellatrix scoffs. The sisters are lounging on the lawn after classes, and down by the lake James Potter is attempting to seduce Lily Evans, again. They’re one year below Bellatrix and Andi, in Cissy’s year, and Potter’s pining is the source of plenty gossip.

“Mhm,” Cissy agrees vaguely, immersed in a knut romance novel. Andi, however, raises an eyebrow at her twin.

“What are you going to do about it, sister dear?” She asks, the dare clear in her voice, silver eyes sparkling with mischief.

Rather than answer, Bellatrix stands up, drawing her wand and striding down to the shore.

Lily has her arms crossed as she protests Potter’s advances, a couple of her dormmates—Fawley, Macdonald—flanking her.

“C’mon, Evans,” Potter cajoles. “Everyone knows we’re gonna get together eventually.”

“Who, exactly is this ‘everyone’?” Bellatrix asks coolly, coming up behind Potter. He spins around, eyes widening with fear—not an uncommon reaction—and she smiles sharply in reply.

“Miss Black?” He splutters dumbly, while Lily surveys her warily over his shoulder.

“Indeed,” she drawls, shooting Lily a wink and watching with delight as the other girl blushes, pressing her lips together. “Now, I believe Miss Evans has refused your offer?”

“We were just joking around…” he tries, and she raises one eyebrow in a look of disdain far more menacing than any glare.

“Leave.”

He hesitates only a beat before bolting. Fawley hides a giggle in her fist, and Macdonald openly cackles. Bellatrix examines her nails, well aware of Lily’s curse-green gaze on her.

“Are you jealous, or something?”

“What?” If she’d been expecting anything, it hadn’t been that.

“I asked if you are jealous of Potter,” Lily stares firmly back, holding her ground, though her hands are shaking.

“And if I am?” She drawls, hiding the tremor in her voice best she can. Lily’s mouth quirks into a grin.

“Hogsmeade,” she proposes. “This weekend.”

“Done,” Bellatrix replies, grinning madly.

I chose Bellalily for this one because… you’ll see

I’m thinking a summer fling. No voldy au, Bellatrix is the life of the party, Lily shows up on her date’s arm and falls hard. They keep it a secret tho, because of everything, and eventually fall apart.

they miss each other… very sad. Lily is doing her best to move on, while Bella’s in a very dark place

Lily’s perspective! She’s trying so hard to be the perfect girl everyone thinks she is, but she misses Bella and her facade is crumbling. In the end, Lily goes running back to Bella, deciding it’s enough to shine just for her

Bella is worried about her own fragile mental state and how it affects her relationship with Lily. She begins to withdraw from her, torn between the wants of her family, Lily, and herself

And Spotify, apparently, didn’t want a happy ending. They’re differences drive them apart again and they’re both trying so desperately to cling on despite the fact that there is nothing left to hold on to

thanks for the ask! :)

may i have ur opinion on bellalily 🧎

i have to admit i've never thought about them... but i don't think it could work for me because in my head lily is so sadly straight.

i imagine her as a person who is always very cruel in love: the idea of it makes her incredibly angry, yet she needs it. she loves men even if she doesn't want to, because they're the only ones who allow her to show the worst part of herself (she doesn't feel guilty about treating them badly). the more obsessed and stupid they are, the more she likes them (example: james, barty). with men she can be both bitchy and kind, but with women only kind. does it make sense? she loves men because she can hate them, but she doesn't love women because she could never hate her GIRLS 💜

[quillkiller]

okay have you ever thought about bellalily. or maybe belladora (bellatrix x pandora). i would also like to propose nardora maybe. i love wlw rarepairs. speaking of, pandora sleeps with prof sprout!

hello!!!!

ok so i have never thought about bellalily and i think i have a hard time seeing it ?? both in canon and in modern aus for some reason ?? i mean i guess in canon because bella is so much older (i hc her as being 8+ older than the marauders) and she’d already be a death eater. im not personally a fan of fully fledged deathers/muggle borns and especially not when bella would be so much older already and the clear power imbalance in their dynamic etc etc etc. i love my lily messy and self destructive and morally fucked up but im not comfortable with making her sleep with, even in secret, someone who has the dark mark and thinks her ’kind’ should die . to each their own and its all fictional and not that deep i guess but thats just me:/

in a modern au tho ?? or a no voldy au ?? maybe ?? i can’t really picture it ? i think they’re too similar in my mind ?? i don’t see lily as being bellas type, and i don’t see bella being lilys type ?? i have a very hard time picturing it but i would LOVE !!! to be convinced otherwise if you’d ever want to indulge me <3

BELLADORA HOWEVER!!!!!! YES!!!! i used to be insane about them and i think there are posts somewhere on my blog under the /belladora tag. to be they’re friends with benefits. they meet at regulus’ bday party and he invites his estranged cousin he hasnt seen for years because she finally left her family. shes full of repressed anger, doesn’t know how to act around people, nearly bites everyones heads off, scary and looks like she hasn’t slept in 2 years. in my mind she also looks older than she actually is. i picture her being 9 or 10 years older than regulus and his friends. anyway. panda takes one look at this socially inept murderuos woman and she’s immediately gone for her. she wants to be her friend. wants to study bella under a microscope. wants to keep her in a lab. she’s not scared off by her foul tongue in the least. pandora is younger, but still more experienced because shes a casual serial dater in my mind. bellas only experience is the man she was forced to be engaged to and they hadn’t even kissed. they’re both bad with social cues, neither of them knows where the line between friendship and ’something more’ lies, pandora is just being a good friend. showing bella the pleasures she hasn’t experienced. they grow codependant fast. regulus hates it. bella hangs off of pandora as if there’s a leash around her neck. pandora just wants to be around bella all the time. neither one of them knows what personal space means. they don’t consider it might be inappropriate sometimes how close they are. when pandora sits on bellas lap even tho there are 3 free seats available. neither of them thinks twice when pandora wants to try out a new spell or potion that will allow them to read each others minds. bella would be conjoined to pandora if she could. she hates evan simply for being pandoras twin. pandora asks bella to move in after theyve slept together twice

nardora i cant really see either ?? to me they’re from two entirely different planets and want completely different things. narcissa, to me, is a bit like petunia i think ?? she wants normal. she wants to be under the radar. she wants someone goal oriented and direct. someone wild, but not wild. someone who wont beat around the bush, someone who’s grounded. christ why am i lowkey starting to ship petunia/narcissa while writing this . omg…………… @sugarsnappeases

ANYWAY!! again!! i’d love to be convinced or nardora. im up for anything honestly :/

pandora/prof sprout 10/10 agreed i saw it happen with my own two eyes .

[v7lgar]

just want to say. lily × bellatrix potential is turning my mind inside out rn. i see the vision i see it so clearly. it's beautiful it's everything i've ever wanted. make it happen...........? (no pressure implied nor intended, this is just an overall applause at your brain) (good day / night to u !¡¡!!)

yeah like imagine??? lily is younger than bellatrix but she doesn't care the age gap, she is attracted everything bellatrix does and did and will. bellatrix calls her young lady at first bcuz she wants to put out the age gap but lily is like so what??? honestly bellatrix gives mommy vibes and lily is so down for it. like ofc bellatrix is very attracted to lily? she wants to fuck her so bad it's a crime bcuz she knows she can give everything or anything to lily and lily knows bellatrix is bad news. she saw it from miles but she doesn't care. she is wearing her green lingerie that knows bellatrix would go insane for and that's what lily wants. she wants to see her lose her mind over her. she wants to seduce her but she also can't help but feel angry at her bcuz she is an awful human being? but yeah, that doesn't mean she can't fuck the enemy or let her fuck her lol

did u always ship the hp ships that u enjoy currently or do u have a secret past (me personally i was reading harry/ginny i think. also romione)

very interesting question fourfeetteninches. i think it sounds really you to be reading romione. i dont mean this as an insult. i do indeed have a secret past! im putting it below the cut because this is longer than i expected it to be

i was never not into hp but i wasn't always in the fandom so while i have always been ride or die for hp since i my dad started reading it with my dad at 5 years old, there was still a gap in like early-mid 20s. i explain this to say that when i ~got back into~ hp despite not necessarily being ~gone~ it was because i read the 6th book first that time and i was like omgggggggg i love ginny i need to read more of ginny/harry. I was even writing an ouat/hp crossover and hinny was a side pair in it.

Then when i first got into hp fandom i think the very first fic i read was atyd so it didnt make sense for me that jily could possibly be with anyone but each other and for the LONGEST time i wanted to read narcissa fics but didnt ship her with anyone so i was reading Narcissa/reader, Narcissa/Alice, Narcissa/Pansy, even narcissa/bellatrix although i got really icked out by that one and any time there was a big focus in the fic on them being sisters i yeeted away (i only liked when i could pretend they were just two hot ladies who weren't related) but yeah none of those really did it for me I just wanted to read narcissa f/f. I think this is actually why i first JOKED about narcissa/ginny but jokes are dangerous as we now know. And ginny is a lesbian so idk how I liked her and harry. And i stumbled upon narlily by accident! I don't remember how!!! Because for a minute I was into bellalily but not as a shipper just as a desperate for bella fics (and again i wont read hermione so bellamione was out). And suddenly i was like how did I ever ship Lily with anyone but narcissa!!!

My other past is less secret bc i still ship it but after atyd I was sooooo into Sirius and wolfstar and I think the first hp ship I was super into (and not reading out of desperation for fics) was wolfstar!!! I read a lot but idk i ascribe to the idea that your ships are someone you identify with and someone you want to bang and remus is neither of those things to me and reading smut with him was kind of icky to me because i just felt nothing for him outside of casual adoration i guess so i still do ship wolfstar but i dont read it at all anymore. i love drarry too but there was a minute when i was experimenting with snape/sirius and with snarry and i read a lot of mushy uwu fall in love fics for those ships that i enjoyed at the time but now i think the only thing i support them for is hate sex
