Hello! An anon recommended I drop “September Sprinkles” in people's askboxes sooooo here is yours. Obviously I could not say no to such a good and smutty idea 😂 Have FUN! Maybe it'll be something new, maybe it'll be wound in 👀

I can’t wait for you to be inside me

Hello my dear Athena, thanks for the September Sprinkles xD I hope you like this!👀 Prompt: Talkative (from @jilymicrofics' September list) (550 words)

After exchanging pleasantries with an old colleague, James found his eyes drawn to her. Lily stood at the other end of the hall, looking stunning in her navy-blue backless dress, her hair done half up. The smooth expanse of her pale skin shone in contrast against the dark, silky fabric under the golden lights from the crystal chandelier. She took a small sip from her champagne flute and, even from the distance, James observed the way her tongue glided slightly over her lower lip, licking away the stray drops.

James quickly downed his wine, placed the empty glass on a tray and made his way straight towards her.

"You look gorgeous," he said, treading an arm around her waist. Lily smiled, raising her head and James placed a quick kiss on her lips. Better to keep it short when in public.

"Thank you," Lily said. She slowly moved her hand down from his shoulder to his chest, stopping near his pinned boutonnière and tugged gently on his lapels before withdrawing her hand. "You look great as well."

James smiled. "Not as beautiful as you." When Lily made a sound of annoyance, he raised his eyebrows. "What?"

"You say all the right things!" She threw her arm exasperatedly before sipping her champagne. "It's so frustrating."

"I'm sorry," James grinned, shifting his weight onto one leg, "I didn't realise I was being frustrating."

"You are." Lily nodded seriously. "First, you enter the hall and every pair of eyes are on you - no respect for the fact that you are out of bounds - and you look this good-" her eyes did a cursory glance from his head to perfectly polished shoes, "-that I can't even blame them for looking. And then you go take off your coat and mix a bloody cocktail for the bosses. Folded sleeves and all..."

"I didn't realise I was being watched," he said, winking at her.

"Oh, It's ridiculous. I said 'hello' to all the old lecturers and then sat with some friends for a while," she sipped her champagne again, "but I had to go away because I was getting so turned on."

James laughed, looking around to see if anyone was near. "You are talkative when you are drunk."

"I'm not drunk! Just slightly tipsy, is all."

"Hmm..." James pulled her in closer and tested the waters by inching his fingers closer to her open back. Lily sighed when he drew tiny circles on her skin with the pads of his fingers but pushed him away soon.

"I was already all hot and bothered when I came to the party," Lily said.

"You were?"

Lily hummed. "I couldn't stop thinking about you when I was dressing up. And about all the things you would do to me."

James swallowed thickly. "Lily..."

"I know! It's very frustrating," Lily repeated, not looking at him. "I almost called you up because I really wanted you, but I refrained."

"You can't say things like that in a work party," James gave a breathy chuckle.

Lily pouted sadly. "I know," she said, straightening his tie. "I can't wait for you to be inside me."

And with that she walked away, leaving James to be standing frozen in place, hot under his collar, her final words reverberating inside his head.

Trick or Treat 🧡

TRICK or

"i don't even know where you end and i begin"

Sirius Black didn’t think about things like death. He didn’t think about endings, changes, the disappearance of things past. He kept his thoughts on the present moment, and let some other part of himself, curled up in the farthest corner of his ribcage, hold its breath over things like these. 

So he never thought about James dying, and he was always thinking about James dying, and, anyway, it didn’t matter, because they were here, now, in this moment, clutching each other’s clothes, laughing with glee because they’d made it through another duel, they’d both crawled out of the rubble of the latest blown up building, Sirius could watch with his own eyes as James’ chest rose and fell, rose and fell, and know there was enough life in both of them in this moment that he didn’t care what happened in the next. 

The part of him in the corner of his ribcage squealed when he thought these things, like it was the same as him saying he didn’t care what happened at all, like he was wishing for everything to end by being grateful it hadn’t. It squealed and screamed, BUT LOOK, LOOK, THIS IS WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN! and he’d start to see it, for a moment, what James’ body might look like lifeless, contorted beneath a pile of stone, dirt and blood smeared where there should be a grin, arms and legs bent—

But he’d press the pads of his fingers into the flesh of his very, very alive James, and he’d forget the part of himself holding its breath, fall instead into the sound of his laugh, the way it made Sirius’ chest bloom, the very sound of it igniting his adrenaline. Where could death even find a place to squeeze itself between them? There was no room. 

So on October 31st, when Sirius stepped around the rubble in Godric’s Hollow to find James’ body lifeless and contorted, he pushed the pads of his fingers into his own hand and waited. He watched James’ mouth, knowing exactly which corner would be the first to curl. He stared at the blood and the dirt and tried to find the grin hidden beneath them. He searched James’ chest and, thinking he’d seen it rise and fall, took two rushing steps forward. But up close, it was clear. He had never seen James’ chest still like that before. Could never have imagined it so still. Thought of that stillness every second from the moment he met James. Didn’t worry about it enough.

For eleven years, he and James made so much life between the two of them, Sirius didn’t think about things like death. There’d just been no room.

Sirius Black was three days shy of twenty-two when he learned that Death does not need room. If it can’t find space to fit between two people, it just swallows them both whole.

when one has a motive next chapter snippet? 👀

👀

Do you remember the last assembly we went to? It was at the beginning of August and the speaker was a “Mrs. Chelsea.” I committed the entire afternoon to the pages of my diary the minute I returned home, but there was no need. I remember it clearly. Enchanting, was it not, all those faces turned toward a common goal, heeding a woman so learned?

How are you ?

Sleepy and on edge 😂 had some issues at work lol, and also dealing with the holiday crowd. Luckily holiday is almost over. Don't get me wrong, I love winter time and all winter activities, but I don't like what it does to people. 😬

How you doing?

29. Share a bit from a fic you’ll never post OR from a scene that was cut from an already posted fic. (If you don’t have either, just share a random fic idea you have that you don’t plan on getting to.)

This is a good one!!

oh, it is!!

so a little something from a cut scene... behind the bar for spoilers (this is Lily's POV in Greenhouse 3) I decided to change it to James's POV in the story. You wanted to know what was in the texts...and @theatrescribbles so here you go;-)

“Can you open Pet’s phone and look at her latest messages, maybe that could help figure out what’s going on?” Lily asked. …….. “She has too many messages. From the library, the flower store. All sorts of wedding things I’m not sure I’m supposed to even see all this,” Vernon said. “Doesn’t matter now does it? There won’t be a wedding without a bride. Is there anything recent from her friends, can you find anything from Harriet?” ............. “Yes. These are from half an hour ago, but then she can’t have seen…” Vernon trailed off. “What is it?” “I hope it rains on your bloody wedding day. How can you tell me I need to find a date for your stupid party when I’ve just been dumped?” Vernon read in a monotone voice. “What?” “There are more… ‘You deserve your stomach ulcer. You only care about yourself. You don’t care about me or Helen, it’s only you, you, you. And we’re sick of it. Your dress is hideous and you’ll always look like an overdressed giraffe. You stupid cow.” “Oh my god.” “Lily, remind me who’s Harriet again? The blonde?”Vernon asked. “Eh, I think they’re all blonde.”

Snippet tag game

Thanks for the tag lovely @athenasparrow ❤️ This is another little bit from the February challenge - does this count as a snippet?😂 I don't think I can share more than this without making the story boring😅

Geoffrey Driscoll was a piece of work if there ever was one and Lily made up her mind to not get riled up by his antics for the sake of having a useful Defence lesson.

Featuring the one and only Geoffrey Driscoll

Tagging (no pressureeee): @annasghosts (because it's Geoffrey lol), @startanewdream @turanga4 @sweeethinny and whoever else that wants to share something!

Shuffle your favorite playlist and post the first five songs that come up. Then copy/paste this ask to your favorite mutuals. 🎶🎧💜💙🤗

this is SO hard cause picking a favorite playlist feels like picking a favorite stuff animal (ok my favorite stuffed animal is padfoot i guess that isn't that hard) which feels like picking a favorite child. i don't want to hurt any of their feelings!!! (i am autistic)

but fine you have forced my hand and i am choosing my new writing playlist i recently created, which basically means, songs that illicit strong emotions from me. here we go.

seven - taylor swift

please - noah kahan

if the world was ending - jp saxe & julia michaels

words fail - ben platt (dear evan hansen)

I’m crying I love them

[backpackingspace]

Athena with odysseus: surprise attacking odysseus and bodily slamming him to palace walls (for awareness training). Randomly kidnapping him from the palace to drop him in the woods (or the ocean or on two memorable occasions on a completely different island) (survival training), using her full strength in sparing matches (odysseus has many broken bones) dragging him up by his wrist so they're face to face. Not being careful with how often she uses quick thought or any of her other powers (what? He seems fine. She's sure odysseus has always been a freak it's definitely not brain damage it's/fine/hes /fine)

Athena with telemachus, after she accidentally knocked him out once: right right odysseus and penelope taught me how to do this when they had me babysit you. Gotta be gentle so so gentle. Gotta support the head gotta craddle humans not yank them up by the wrist (she knew odysseus was a freak why didn't he say anything??) Can't just funnel her full power into the kid gotta be so gentle.
