#back to writing my jilypad

[padfootastic]

hmmm so it seems like i’ve forgotten how to stitch scenes together bc i’m working on the next chapter for FoD and…all i’ve got are two parts. 1. a golden trio situation and 2. a harry & sirius scene. no filler bits, no bridge dialogue/prose. it’s so weird but a very large part of me is tempted to post it as is. hmmmmmm.

[yallthemwitches]

From the smut prompt list: 3. “That’s sweet and all but do they touch you the way I touch you? Fuck you the way I fuck you? Mm, yeah, didn’t think so.”

Well, I did it. My soft launch into Jilypad.

Sorry if this wasn’t what you wanted anon, but it was fun to write!

Read below the cut or AO3 link

(The prompt came from This post! Feel free to send me another smut prompt challenge~)

“Open your eyes, baby. You need to see.”

“James—“

But that’s the confusing part—it isn’t James and the act of opening her eyes answers that for her:  instead, James sits beside her, mouth open and cock in hand, eyes jumping from her face to the head of lustrous black hair that moves between her legs, taking the spot that he is so used to occupying.

“Merlin—it's so hot that you still say my name even when it’s not me.”

Below her, a mouth finds her clit, giving it a rough lick before sucking hard. She lets out a cry and pushes her face into the mattress, hands grasping at the sheets of the bed. 

“Christ. James—-Sirius—both of you.” 

There's an abrupt halt in pressure as Sirius sits back on his heels and laughs, hands tight on her ass to keep her propped up on her knees. 

“Now, now Evans. Don’t go getting us confused,” Sirius taunts, a finger moving slowly to swipe down through her folds until it comes back up drenched.“And here I was hoping we’d get a full report on who was a better shag after all this.”

He holds out his dripping finger to James, eyes twinking with mirth as James takes it into his mouth, licking every last bit of her off his mate’s hand.

She looks up at them from where her chest and head are pressed into the bed, seeing that even in the uncharted territory of sharing a partner, they work around each other with playful ease.

“Actually—“ James starts, licking the last bit of the taste of her off his lips, “I’m pretty interested in that as well.”

He moves over behind her, Sirius making a gesture of offering as James’ hands replace his. Without warning, he bends down and licks from as far frontwards as his tongue can reach all the way to her budded asshole, lingering at the end to press lightly until she is wailing into the sheets. 

“So what is it, Evans? Does he touch you the way I touch you?”

She can’t respond with anything other than a tremble, already on the verge of release as James’ cock takes the place of his finger and slides through the remainder of Sirius’ saliva and her previous orgasm. 

“ Hm, I didn’t think so.”

I'm at the stage of "I'm back into writing" where I have so many idea snippets and all of them need more cooking time and nothing is even a little bit done, but still it's a luxury to have them all. and some evolve into totally different things

like the little idea of Sirius seeing James' "ghost" over and over again in Grimmauld Place (and Remus being mildly concerned 😂) that now evolved into a possible connection between Master of Death James and Grim Sirius and possibly Sirius pulling James back out of the veil in the Ministry and what comes after that (so a spin of the classing "James comes back") (this feels like it should be a big multi chapter thing and I'm not sure I can pull that off just yet)

the vampire!Sirius and vampire!Lily wanting to nibble on wizard-living-in-the-woods!James went from possibly cosy fun to maybe getting a little darker with possible vampire hunters being involved and James' special connection to the woods he lives in and why that is (and a whole background to how Sirius turned Lily)

there is the idea of James being kidnapped by Bella and the Death Eaters and Sirius coming to the rescue with some darker leaning magic (and a possible unsolicited soul bond for James that binds his and Sirius' soul together to make sure Bella won't kill him off) (I just want darker, unhinged Sirius, okay?)

granddad James at nearly 50 (canonly he'd be a grandfather at 45 😂) with little James going to see some magical creatures in the zoo, where he runs into twenty-something Sirius who's working with the creatures there (he would be a little bit younger than Harry in this AU) so a nice little 20+ years age gap

playing a little bit more in the cosy universe Ho Ho Ho gave me, because I want to feed my self-indulgence more and see them work in their repair shop together (and possibly get to them trying to have sex that's other things than handjobs and figure out how that works with a lot of laughter, you get the idea)

Lily picking James up at a bar or club and bringing him home with her where he also meets her hot roommate (Jilypad endgame for sure)

Masters of Death Jilypad (because I'm obsessed with the hallows and there are three of them, and they are three, and three is a magical number, and Voldi better watches out because they will come for him soon)

and I'm sure tomorrow I will have a new idea because that's how my mind is right now 😂 but I kind of have to put them here so I hold myself accountable to do something with them and keep writing next year!

Do you respond to comments?

🙃Not as much as I should. I try to, and I want to, but then I end overthinking about responding too soon and then get overwhelmed and anxiety myself out of responding to some of them. I should do better.

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

Dusk - Wolfstar where they grow old together but Sirius slowly loses his memories and forgets Remus.

What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

I don't know how to answer this one? Most of my fics end up happy. I guess Step & Repeat would count for that. Or Falling In Love Without You, which is a Wolfstar marriage deadline, "help me find someone who will marry me" mutual pining fic.

Do you write crossovers?

No, generally not. Though I've considered a Wolfstar/Sex Wizards fic, I think it'd be less crossover and more a Sex Wizards AU with wolfstar as characters.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Yes. Don't do that, it sucks. I do tend to delete and block it now, more than I used to, so that helps a lot.

Do you write smut?

Bahahaha sometimes it feels like all I write is smut.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I'm aware of.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! Wishes on Stars was translated to Russian. I've been contacted about a few others, but that's the only one that I have linked back to me.

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Lmao, yes. Quite a few! I find that I really enjoy cowriting, but it definitely takes working with someone who I can mesh with. Quietlemonhush and I wrote like 700k words together, and plan for more.

What's your all-time favorite ship?

Arguably, wolfstar. But I have a hard time naming *favorites* outright like that. But I do adore wolfstar.

What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?

This question was made to particularly torture me and I refuse to let it have a hold over me.

None of them. I intend to finish all of them. Always. It's a totally reasonable position to take.

What are your writing strengths?

Building to a moment. That anticipation and then dropping a bomb, moment. I love that shit.

What are your weaknesses?

Finishing my fics

Okay, but really, I think it's sometimes getting in and having the deep, emotional conversations. I like to gloss over them a bit, and I think I need to build them out more in my writing.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

Mixed. I want it to work better than it does, but I struggle to get a translation to get the same message across, even when working with an in person translator.

What's a fandom/ship you haven't written for yet but want to?

Jilypad, honestly. Or Lily/Remus, which I think could be so fun.

What's your favorite fic that you've written?

Ohhhh hard question. Mostly because it changes regularly. But, probably Wishes on Stars. I'm so soft for them.

Alright, this was lovely fun. Let's tag @r33sespieces @tracingpatternswrites and @puuvillaa (unless you've done it already!)

✨2024 AO3 Wrap Up ✨

@lilacella thank you for tagging me ❤️

2024 wasn’t a good year for me, personally. I didn’t feel like I accomplished many of the things I wanted, and I really hope 2025 will be better.

I think I reconnected with the fandom as a form of escapism. I got back into reading fanfics in 2023, but I didn’t have an AO3 account at the time. Then I created one at the beginning of 2024, but I never imagined I’d actually post there (let alone that anyone would read what I wrote).

But then, halfway through the year, in July, I started publishing my fanfics, and wow, I’m so proud of all of them. Just knowing each one has at least one loyal reader makes me SO happy. 🥹

In 2024, I posted 5 works across two different fandoms: Harry Potter and Arcane.

My total word count was 334,853 words (INSANE, considering this was all done in less than 6 months lol).

By far, my most popular fic is Fetters of the Damned (Harry/Voldemort), and I’ll never stop finding that fascinating, especially since it’s so... dark. (crossing my fingers and hoping it never falls into the hands of the fandom’s moralists!)

The ships I wrote for (in order of publication):

James/Sirius (Prongsfoot) - fic: Dissonance (143,882 words - WIP, E rated)

Dorcas/Marlene (Dorlene) - fic: Turbulence (30,340 words - WIP, E rated - WILL BE FINISHED SOON, I SWEAR)

The Black Sisters (Bellatrix, Andromeda, Narcissa + their canon ships) - fic: Disrupted Allegiances (65,415 words - WIP, M rated)

Harry/Voldemort (Harrymort/Soulseeker) - fic: Fetters of the Damned (87,503 words - WIP, E rated)

Jayce/Viktor (Jayvik) - fic: The Herald and the Defender (7,713 words, finished, E rated)

📝 Plans for 2025:

Finish all my WIPs

Write for other fandoms (Star Wars, I’m coming back, darling!)

Publish my Jilypad (James/Lily/Sirius) fic (rubbing my hands like an evil fly)

Publish my dark academia or my dystopia Tomarry fic (can't decide which, but in any case... hello, young Tom)

Stop putting so much pressure on myself when writing (sometimes I stress myself out if I can’t write, which is crazy because creativity needs inspiration, and we’re not always inspired).

Anyway, I wish you all an amazing 2025! See you next year 🤍

[neverenoughmarauders]

Ohh, I thought you were only here for canon! But you like prongsfoot and lilypad (which I have to say has the most amazing ship name but I'd never heard of it until now).

I mean I am primarily a canon fan, and no one can ever truly make me dislike canon.

E.g. even I am not super sold on how Tonks and Remus happened just because it all happened off the page - to me it's clear from the interaction in the hospital wing that Remus IS in love with Tonks, but doesn't want to - and in the absence of Sirius and James to knock some sense into him, the others do it. And guess what, I find it fun to fill in the blanks. One day I want to write a Remadora story with my amazing Tonks and my sweet, dear Remus! But am I surprised people hate the ship? No, and I could write a long essay about it.

What I like about canon is that few relationships are perfect and rather than either re-writing the characters, the ship or anything else, it gives us so much room to explore the existing dynamics and characters. What makes two people work? Very often it will be a combination of background, personalities and circumstances - had the circumstances been different, then a canon ship might not have happened. That's also true of real life.

There are plenty of worlds in which Ron and Hermione don't work, but after everything they've been through, it makes sense to me that they get together - and stay together.

Having said that, I absolutely enjoy exploring ships that don't happen in canon - and that's not limited to Prongsfoot and Jilypad. I would even truly be fascinated by Wolfstar, if it wasn't constantly treated like canon (and the ADHD part of my brain likes variance, and Wolfstar is everywhere...).

Personally I prefer ships to consist of the people we see in canon (ie they keep their canon characterisations), and that the stories include the messiness that most of the canon counterparts have. E.g. what makes private, people-pleaser and conflict-shy Remus fall in love with the rebellious and sometimes cruel Sirius - and what makes someone like Sirius, who is constantly seeking thrilling adventures with James, pause and see Remus? This fanfic author does a fantastic job of exploring how that could work in their writing. I too tried once to explore this in a wolfstar one shot.

At one point I considered writing an unrequited Jegulus one shot XD I am stubbornly trying to ask myself how, if at all, can various characters be shipped. And as far as I can be confident in characters I didn't write, James would never fall for someone like Regulus, but we don't actually know enough to conclusively say Regulus couldn't fall for James (and hate himself for it).

Back to your main point: the reason why I truly adore Jilypad and Prongsfoot, however, is because they require little work/alteration by nature to work. I am not saying you cannot make wolfstar work with the canon characterisations - I've been proven wrong here - but Sirius who's entire character seem to evolve around James and then Jily - well, it's not difficult to take that one step further. I am also older than I was when I first got into the series - way older - and there is something increasingly appealing by best friends to lovers, and relationships with an equal power dynamic.

And this needs to end with a link to my favourite Jilypad fic: Hopelessness.

[eastwindmlk]

Okay! Last one I promise

98)

“But you think about me when they’re fucking you, don’t you?” “I… That’s not true.”

You choose the pairing!

alsjeblieft en bedankt

It doesn't have to be! Here have another look and maybe a pairing will pop up for one of then ;)

You gave me free choice and I choose Jilypad. Now, this does cut off right before the real fun begins and I am happy to write that too, if people are interested.

As always! NSFW under the cut!

Sirius spent about ten seconds longer snogging his conquest at the threshold. For something that lasted about nine seconds, that wasn’t a great ending to a disappointing night.

Honestly, it wasn’t Mark’s fault—was it Michel? Michael maybe?—it was difficult to impress anyone who’d lived with James Potter and his girlfriend for any amount of time. It really bred the expectation of sex involving several invocations of deities and at least one series of worrying clatters, followed by giggling.

But this had been none of that.

At no point had he even considered calling out for God, Merlin, or anyone for that matter. He’d finished, because he supposed it was polite to, but his mind had wandered away from Matthew at some point. Not far. Just the next room over, through the thin walls, which they swore they were going to soundproof but never did.

The point was that Sirius felt like a proper arse, was still very much unsatisfied, and it was far too late to find someone new.

Sirius sighed in frustration, a hand raking over his face as he decided to have a large measure of gin and juice, and then…

“So, Micah didn’t deliver?” The voice pulled Sirius from his thoughts, his eyes peering into the hallway to find James, shirtless and wearing sinfully tight grey joggers, leaning in the doorway.

Sirius pressed his lips together before releasing them with a pop and a lacklustre “Eh, it was fine.” Which sounded not dissimilar to how he had explained away every single terrible date he’d been on, harkening back all the way to Cassandra Fitzroy in third year.

He did not even have to look to know the exact expression on his face, and he did not want to see it. He did not want James’ sympathy. Not after the night he’d had. The thoughts he did not need flooded back. “I need a shower,” he announced, pushing past James with his eyes down, determined to ignore his friend.

“Have a nice wank,” James told him, sounding far too smug for his liking.

Sirius paused, rubbing the tense spot between his brows. “Piss off, mate,“ he snapped, his heart beating painfully fast. Hammering against his ribs, wondering if James knew every time he touched himself in the same way he could always tell when they were about to shag.

He was about to reach for the bathroom door when the door handle rattled, making him startle. Watching Lily appear, wrapped in nothing but a towel that barely covered the tops of her thighs.

That was a sight that was now burned into his brain, and he was very glad he was heading to the shower.

“Oh, Massimo didn’t work out?” Lily asked, and instead of disappearing into the bedroom, she just leaned against James. Her head rested against his shoulder as the pair of them stood there. The poster children for bisexual awakenings. “It was awfully quiet,” she remarked, and it made his face burn in embarrassment.

Sirius sniffed indignantly, his jaw setting as he marched towards the bathroom door. “Well, that is just my shit luck, isn’t it?” His voice rose a little more than he had intended. “Now if you two and your incredibly creative sex life leave me to wank in peace?” His ears were ringing as he gripped the door frame in frustration.

“So, you know what we get up to, then?” Lily asked, her eyes sparkling dangerously amused as she shared a look with James.

He knew that she was baiting him, that he should not let himself be teased, and he should not be biting. But he was starving, and no matter how torturous the send-off would be, the masochist in him was hungry for their attention. “It’s hard not,” he answered, dragging his eyes away from her thighs, away from the outline in James’ joggers and up.

His eyes lingered on James’ toned chest, glinting over at Lily’s flushed breasts, which looked ready to spill out of that ridiculously small towel of hers when James’ words snapped his gaze upward like an elastic band being released. “But you think of us when they’re fucking you, don’t you?” His full lips had curved into a knowing smile.

“I… That’s not true!” Sirius answered, too fast to be believable. He couldn’t even lie convincingly. Not when his wandering imagination was still so fresh. The twist of guilt in his stomach was still slowly untwisting. Because a quarter of an hour before, that is precisely what he’d done. And it had not even been the first time.

The couple shared another look, James’ arm tightening around Lily’s shoulder and her towel shifting, a welcome distraction from the wild plans spinning in his mind. He considered several outs before settling on: “Now if you don’t mind. I am going to drown myself in the shower.”

Like magnets, the pair shifted, moving forward half a step before stopping. “You don’t have to do that, you know,” Lily told him, real concern lacing her voice. Her delicate hand stretched out towards him, resting her fingers on his forearm.

Sirius rolled his eyes and scoffed at that, not dignifying her coddling with an answer. What else was he going to do? He just practically admitted to fantasizing about his roommates, who also happened to be good mates and in a very loving and committed relationship.

He should have fled already, half-hard cock and all, taken himself out for a walk or a ride. Anything but linger after those words. He hoped that his world would flip itself the right way up and that they could all pretend nothing had happened when he returned.

“You could join us,” James suggested, and just like that, his world took another wild spin. “You’d fit right in.”

All Sirius could do for a moment was blink, his eyes dropping to Lily’s dark red tips. Her touch suddenly took on an entirely different context. The warmth of her hand spread through him like wildfire. Burning away the nerves.

Even if this was a fugue, one night of insanity, Sirius would never forgive himself if he’d turn this down. “I suppose that is an option,” he posed doubtfully, trying to rein himself in.

Her hand grabbed on tighter now, the towel shifting and coming undone, but she did not seem to care. Lily allowed it to happen, and her naked form pulled him into their bedroom.

“Now, care to tell us what you were thinking about?”

[m00neroni]

For the "give me a character" thing, may I request Remus and/or Lily? 💕

hello sunshine! thank you <3

well, let's do both!

How I feel about this character

Remus: He's been my favourite character since I read POA back when I was 9, so there's that. I do love him with all his messiness and bad traits and flaws, but most importantly with his kindness, sense of humour and brilliance. My little middle-aged baby.

Lily: She is THE woman to me. Every detail we know about her makes me more and more in love with her. She haunts the narrative in a way that makes me almost dizzy.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Remus: Mostly and almost solely Sirius, that's not a secret. I also enjoy my cheeky Remus x James content and I've read and want to read more (and probably write some) Remus x James x Sirius. (Also, I'm a Remus x James x Lily x Sirius enthusiast, but that's between me and God. It's not my fault they are a sexy found family?)

Lily: James (boooooo boring.) They really make me VERY happy, in the way an unapologetic queer person enjoys heteronormativity. They are cuuuuute, what can I say. On top of the little polycule mentioned up there, I also can see the appeal of Lily with Alice being her first sapphic crush and I've indulged in a bit of Lily x Marlene too.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Remus: I've talked before about my love for Lily and Remus friendship, even if it's not exactly canon, so I won't repeat myself. I'm gonna mention his and James' friendship, because I believe it's deeply underrated.

Lily: Her friendship with Snape, even if I don't enjoy the character much, is really interesting and I see the appeal. I do like to read about how it develops and crumbles, not gonna lie. I also enjoy her friendship with Sirius so so so much, platonic jilypad is amazing!

My unpopular opinion about this character

Remus: He did deserve the redemption arc and his actions after 1981 and Sirius' death are driven by profound grief.

Lily: She is not a joykiller nor the epitome of morality. Treating her as such and holding her to different standards than we do with male characters is lame and weird.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Remus: He should have killed Greyback (and survived. Yes.)

Lily: Why didn't anyone give this woman a gun?

[annabtg]

I have to ask why is the marauders fandom so obsessed with Sirius and his looks? You guys act like he’s this Casanova but there’s no proof of it. Yes, he’s mentioned to be good looking but I’ve met my fair share of pretty boys who turn me off as soon as they open their mouths. Everything around Sirius is always made so sexual… it’s either Wolfstar or Jilypad. It’s like you guys can’t get over this looks and dig deeper into his personality, family history, and his life story. There’s so much material and stories that could be told but everyone focuses on his looks and it’s so condescending. If you guys do tell his story it’s like 20% his story 80% of everyone trying to shag him. I can’t find one story that actually does a great job of telling the brotherhood between the marauders, without turning it into some story of how everyone is obsessed with Sirius’ looks. James and Sirius were brothers in every way but in blood. We don’t know much about Lily and Sirius but with the letter sent she obviously cared enough to reach out to him because James missed his best friend and was having a hard time at the cottage. Remus and Sirius relationship is tragic and isn’t talked about enough. The guy was willing to become an animagus to help him but didn’t trust him enough to think I he was working against the order? Then there’s Peter who is by far the most underrated marauder and fooled them all, and got Sirius sentenced to Azkaban for 12 years. There’s so much more to Sirius then his looks and making up sexual relationships with the marauders. I used to love marauder fandom but the new writers have ruined everything and turned it into stories of everyone wanting to shag Sirius. There’s no plot, no story line, only the whole wizarding world fawning over how gorgeous Sirius is.

My poor dear anon,

What shallow, misguided corners of the fandom have you found yourself into?

I don't know if you found me through my writing or my latest shitpost. Probably the latter, because if you'd spent any time around here, you'd know that Sirius, for me, is so much more than someone to fawn over and shag - he's one of the most intelligent, most loyal, most characters and I'm fascinated by so many more of his facets than his indubitable handsomeness. (I do love to thirst over good artwork of him, but that's not exclusive to him.) I don't really have much tolerance for people who view Sirius as the person you describe and I don't engage with them.

But let's take a look at some definitions before we proceed.

1. The Marauders fandom. These days this is a term that hardly means anything, as it's been liberally adopted by anyone who focuses on any HP character who was alive sometime before Halloween 1981. Wolfstar shippers and Jilypad shippers, for instance, are two different groups with very little overlap, in my experience.

2. Sexualization. Sexualization means to reduce someone to their physical attractiveness and sexual potential and ignore their other qualities and characteristics. It does not mean being in a romantic relationship and/or having sex.

So, anon, I believe one of two things is what's at play here:

Possibility #1: You found yourself in some corner of the fandom that does sexualize Sirius. I don't know where that might be - I think even Wolfstar doesn't do that (it seems to me that they have the opposite problem these days, sexualizing Remus instead!). My main ship is Jily, though, and I find that overall people here have great appreciation for Sirius.

Come to the dark side. We have cookies biscuits, we appreciate Sirius as a friend to James and Lily (oh look, a whole fic fest dedicated to Sirius's friendship with Lily!), and while himbo Casanova Sirius used to be a popular trope in the mid-00s, I haven't seen it in fic since I got back into fandom two years ago.

(Disclaimer: There are always going to be thirsty fics. Prongsfoot, Lilypad and Jilypad, which I delve into, are not devoid of that either. And sometimes you just acknowledge that Sirius is one of the hottest characters in HP and just want to see him in action. Those fics are E-rated and usually pretty easy to avoid, and do not, in my experience, constitute the norm of how Sirius is treated within these fandoms.)

Possibility #2: You just don't like shippy fic at all; you want to read gen instead. That's completely valid, and I understand that completely non-shippy fic is hard to find. Especially with Jily being canon, so if you have to explore Sirius in a canon context there's probably going to at least be a side of Jily - that people always tag, because ships make or break fics for lots of readers, and it's recommended to tag for even minor presence or mention of a ship.

It does seem to me that the Marauders fandom now is more ship-focused than it used to be, I agree with you. I feel like gen fic back then was easier to find. I'd attribute that to a lot of us being older now and more interested in more "adult" situations, where some sort of romance is usually present, compared to the mostly teenaged fandom of 20 years ago that was more concerned with friendship and teenage shenanigans. But there are still people interested in Sirius and his non-romantic relationships with others - like those of us who wrote for Blackevans BFF fest (linked previously) and the people writing for @goodgodfathersiriusblack.

Bottomline: Do you want good quality Sirius content, or do you want Sirius content exactly how you want it? I can help with the first - stick around for posts, fics and recs. For the second, you'll have to be the change you want to see in the world.

23, 29 and 30 for the ask game, please ✨

Hi Scorpi!! 💖 Thanks for your ask!!

23. If you had to choose one, what was THE most satisfying writing moment of your year?

Translating What happens in the showers (Prongsfoot fic) into English. I first wrote it in my first language three years ago when I got back into fandom and I'm very fond of it and happy I was able to share it with more people this year. Also not sure if I ever mentioned this but I originally started to write the fic sometime in the early 2000s, then found it over a decade later again and thought, "Huh, the writer (me) never finished this. How annoying! This sounds actually good." So I finally finished it. 😁

29. Replied here.

30. What would you like to write next year?

I'd like to finish my WIPs. Besides Prongsfoot some more Jilypad and Drarry. Those are my interests right now. But maybe I'll try a pairing I've never thought of writing before, I like to surprise myself!

2024 in review

“I’m not sharing you with anybody. You’re mine, and mine only, and I’m going to make you remember that.”

(This prompt came from This post! Feel free to send me another~)

Alright Anon. I went in not expecting to write more than 500 words and made it out with 2k...

I'll post this as a chapter on my Jilykinktober collection on AO3 as well.

Obviously NSFW---there is a light splash of jilypad but overall its Jily through and through.

Read under cut or on AO3!

“Alright gals—best shag of your pathetic little lives–go.”

“Black–Sirius, not the younger one,” Sophia squeaks first and an embarrassed gasp goes through the room that quickly dissolves into laughter, some girls jumping up from their place against their bed post to shake their bottles in Sophia’s direction. 

“No way, I was just about to say him too,” Anna squeals, hardly keeping her butterbeer from sloshing on the ground. 

“Fuck it all—me too,” Marlene huffs, arms folding across her chest. “So then who the fuck hasn’t shagged Sirius—besides Lily of course.”

Lily, who had found an interest in her butterbeer label the moment the Sirius discourse started, popped her head up. 

“What do you mean of course?”

Marlene snorts and picks herself off the bed, moving to lay across hers.

“Sorry but–” she thinks for a moment, choosing her words carefully, “I mean, I kinda just assume you haven’t since Potter is so obsessed with you.”

Lily’s face flushes red, crossing her arms tight against her chest. “What do those two have to do with each other?”

“C’mon Lily, don’t be thick. They’re best mates. There’s a… a code for these things.”

Lily’s eyes go to slits.  “Potter doesn’t own me just because he fancies me.”

“Ok then—have you shagged Black?” 

Lily bites her lower lip, cheeks reddening to the point of pain. “I mean, no but—”

The other girls laugh, and Lily sinks herself back against the bedpost while Marlene reaches a hand out to pat her knee gingerly with a smug smile. 

“Sorry babe, we are just taking the piss out of you— I wish I could say you weren't missing out but–” she teeters off and the rest of the girls nod and giggle at the implication. “To be fair, I hear Potter is not so shabby either if you just gave in…”

She’s had enough. Standing, she waves at the girls, mumbling about getting more butterbeer before shutting the door behind her, just barely catching the tail end of and when he does that thing with his tongue— before the voices become a distant murmur. 

Sitting at the bottom step into the common room, she only gets a few moments to ponder how she plans to find butterbeer before a paper airplane lopes her way, landing squarely in her lap.

Lads are out. I miss you/need you already (pathetic)

She snorts at the note, heart getting louder with every reread. He didn’t sign it, but he didn’t need to. Lily waits until some lingering third years go up to their dorms before ascending the boy’s staircase, stopping in front of the heavy set door that she is becoming more familiar with each passing week. 

Knocking once, she pushes into the room. He must have been waiting for her because he leans against his bed, a coy smile tugging at his lips.

“Evening Evans.” 

She can’t tell who moves faster, but they meet in the middle, not wasting time to kiss exactly how she wants: slow and sinful with her teeth nipping at his bottom lip. 

“Fuck–” His swear comes out breathy and whimpering, opening his mouth to let their tongues slide together. “It gets better every time, I swear. I missed you Evans. It’s only been–what? Two hours and I bloody missed you.”

He drags his mouth downwards, pushing back the straps of her night shirt to nibble and suck her shoulders. Hands sliding over her breasts towards her hips, his body sinks with them, landing on his knees in front of her to push her night shirt up and brush his tongue against her lower abdomen.

“I heard some interesting things from the girls tonight.” She grabs hold of his hair and gives a playful tug. James groans against her skin, hands wrapping around to finger at the waistband of her shorts.

“Anything worth mentioning?” The eyes that look up at her from her waist are wide and giddy, a hand dipping into her shorts to find nothing underneath besides bare skin. 

“Yeah—apparently I’m missing out on a great shag with Sirius because of you—the girls wager if you weren’t such an arrogant, possessive berk, I’d have gone full monty with him like the rest of them.”

She meant it as a tease thinking he would have a laugh at Sirius’ expense then continue his quest southward, but instead he stops cold, pulling his mouth completely off of her to stare.

“You feeling left out?” His voice cracks on the last word, eyes growing darker by the second.

Suddenly, she feels she is in uncharted territory. They have only been shagging for a couple weeks now, but the emotions are still new, the secrecy of it all making the proper etiquette difficult to maneuver. They had never had the talk about being exclusive, but it always seemed obvious that they weren’t seeing other people—when would they have the time? But looking now at James, emotions impossible to decipher as he peers up at her from his place on the ground, she feels a waiver of uncertainty. 

“Not left out—just curious,” she emphasizes the teasing tone of her voice, wiggling her hips under his hands, “They said they’ve heard good things about you too, but Black…” A sudden rush of heat pools into her belly, rare and delectable and powerful. She knows its mean, but she tells herself a blow to his ego will do him some good. 

“So you are saying you’d like to give him a go before settling on me?” His voice is deep, tone dark and demanding. 

“Not necessarily,” she hums, smiling at the sensation of James’ fingers twitching against her sides. “But I do hear he shags nasty. That he can do things with his tongue that–”

She doesn’t even get to finish her sentence before he is off the ground and pushing her down against the bed. She falls disoriented, his hands moving quick and pressured to rip off her top and expose her already peaked tits. He lunges to them, mouth open and hot, sliding his tongue around a flat tip while his other hand tweaks at the other. 

“Too bad. Too bad.” He pants against her chest, sucking against the soft flesh until she is certain there will be a bruise. “We can fuck on Sirius’ bed if you like. Hell, he can even watch, —but I’m not sharing you, not ever.”

 The image of Sirius, sitting at the bottom of the bed flashes through her mind, eyes alight and hungry as he watches James make her scream his name, encouraging and congratulating her on the ability to take his best mate’s cock so well—for coming exactly when he says…

A finger presses into her clit and immediately the vision of Sirius dissolves back into James, only James, as his very real body molds into hers. Her fingers instinctively go back into his hair, nails scratching down the curve of his neck as he migrates his mouth downward, grabbing hold of her thighs and wrenching them apart to settle himself by her center. 

“Christ—James.” She gets up on her forearms to find his eyes locked on her, rabid and flooded dark, mouth hovering over where her sleep shorts barely cover her clit. 

“What is it baby?” He teases, a smile playing at his lips when her hips buck from the use of her pet name. “Do you want my tongue? My cock? Apparently I have something to prove so use your words.”

“Your tongue,” she gasps out, eyes going glassy just watching him loom over her. His hands move to the inside of her thighs, thumbs rubbing circles as he pushes her legs wider. 

His mouth gets so close that she can feel his breath through the fabric, but he doesn’t press into her. She reaches down to push his mouth against her, but a hand snaps up to grab her wrist, pinning it back to her side. 

“No,” he growls out, “I’m going to make you squirm until you beg to come.” To prove his point he sticks out the tip of his tongue and softly skims it up her folds through the shorts. “I’m going to make you remember that you’re mine.” 

Her body contracts, back arching up into the air. Any damage to his ego from her teasing is completely gone as he smiles triumphant against her shorts. 

“Do it again,” she pleads, capacity of speech becoming harder each second he focuses on the inside of her thighs and not back at the place where her desire is seeping through her shorts. “Please James—please.”

Taking his time, he moves back to the middle of her legs, planting little kisses.

“Fuck fuck–,” he breathes, “you’re so wet Lily. It’s seeping through– fuck you’re incredible.”

When she moves for her shorts, he lets her, helping them slip down her hips and off. He goes back nestled between her legs, eyes wide despite being long past the first time he has seen her unclothed and laid out for him like this. 

“You are unreal Evans—you’re the most lovely thing in this universe I swear,  I swear.”

Her laughter is clipped by the crashing pressure of his tongue rolling right through her center. He doesn’t ease into it, making sure to lap at every part of her with the pressure and rhythm he knows will make her unravel. A hand moves from her thigh to press into her clit, rubbing small circles until she is trembling under him. 

“Oh–” She has no other thoughts, nothing else cognizant forming on the tip of her tongue than the deep noises that are bubbling up from inside her and the constant mantra of his name. The girls were wrong, dead wrong. Sirius might be a good shag, but this—James, he was the sublime. 

“Come for me Evans—let me taste you when you come.” His tongue continued stroking through her folds, a finger now teasing its way inside her, “Come for me, baby, I can feel you’re close.”

The finger that was hesitating plunges inside her, curling upwards and reaching a spot that takes the air out of the room. Even in her release, she can feel him smiling against her, licking and kissing her until she is a shuddering puddle of bones and skin under him. 

“So–,” he hums, licking his lips while pulling himself above her. “Do you reckon Sirius could do that?”

“Arrogant.” She huffs out, still reveling in her climax. “But to answer your question—absolutely not. What you just did was… inhuman.”

He laughs, and her eyes open to find him at her sightline. “Godric, you’re so wonderful. So lovely–if going down on you is inhuman then I never want to be human again. I’m addicted.”

He leans down to kiss her softly before moving his attention to her neck, sucking at fragile skin until he finds the part that makes her squeal when he presses his teeth there. 

“What do you want, my love? I’m so hard for you I could die, but if you want to stop…if you're tired then....”

Her eyes burst open, latching her hands to the back of his neck and scraping her nails downwards on his back. His eyes grow wide, full of that same look she has seen reflected back at her from this bed of course, but also alcoves and passages where they have stolen time to relieve their desire whenever possible.

She slides a hand down between them, and with a smile cups his trapped cock with her palm,  thumb rubbing up and down the shaft. His head falls all the way back, breath expelling from his mouth as she slides a hand up his exposed throat. 

“I want you to fuck me so hard the girls in the other room can hear.” Her voice is low and thick, and she feels him twitch from underneath her. “I want them to hear how good your cock is.” 

“Fuck—Fuck, Lily are you sure?”

Her hands move up to his pants, unbuttoning and pulling them down his thighs until she can feel his real flesh throbbing against her. 

“Christ yes–fuck me, James. Please.”

She can feel him lining up with her, sliding against her clit and into her folds as a prelude to a dance they already know so well. Her whole body is humming, like being ascended to some new astral plane. His eyes fixate on her while he drags a hand down her neck, letting the pads of his fingers linger like touching a rare artifact.

“Fuck Evans, I love it when you beg.” 

His pupils dilate when he enters her. 

The other men she had slept with in the past would always watch themselves enter her, falling into the primal instinct of taking over her body, but James was different. He always looked at her. Eyes hazy but focused, becoming softer and softer with every thrust of pleasure he made. Even if he was giving her the roughest shag of her life, he always watched her face, reading her expression, her passion, letting her reactions be his guide. At first she found it a bit too intimate, but now it was everything.

“Lily—”

 His dominant act dissipates as he molds into her, hands skimming anywhere they can gain purchase while pushing in, breathing out her name like a prayer. 

“You’re so lovely—you feel so good…I want you forever, forever.”

She is no better, eyes wide watching him watch her. She can feel her mouth hanging open, noises spilling out but so distant in comparison to the feeling of him inside her. It is as though the sensation of him moving deep within her blocks out all other senses, him the pleasurable nucleus to her universe. 

He grabs one of her thighs and wraps it around his waist and her hips arch upwards allowing him to reach a tighter, deeper place. At the change he gasps, head hanging to rest his forehead against her sternum, breath making her skin even hotter. 

“Fuck—Godric help me.” 

She curls her fingers into his hair with one hand and cradles his cheek with another, pulling him off her chest to hover back over her. 

“Keep looking at me. I want to see it when you come.”

His breath goes ragged as his hips begin to snap faster, hand going back to her clit to rub circles until her vision becomes spotted and bright. 

“I want you to come first—come again for me and I’ll follow you, please Lily, Baby—Evans.”

She presses her face up into his chest to try to stifle the cry that falls out of her mouth. She had never had a second orgasm before him and she doubted she ever would after–if there was even an after. She heard herself cry his name before the room became a stark white, only resurfacing to hear his own whimper and feel him shudder in release before draping himself onto her in exhaustion. 

In the afterglow, they hold each other, letting their heartbeats fall back into a familiar rhythm. 

“I hope your mates  don’t come back soon,” she murmurs into him, tickling the back of his shoulders lightly with her fingertips. “I don’t think I have the will power to get up, much less explain myself.”

He makes a snorting noise, lifting his head off of her shoulder to stare down at her. It’s a look that used to scare her: one of complete unfiltered adoration. Now she wishes she could see it at every moment of every day. He leans down, taking her lips with his. A soft, adoring kiss that she immediately wants more of. 

“Can you sleep here tonight?” he whispers against her, arms already encircling her waist as though to hold her there forever. “I already know I am going to want you again in the next hour. Then the hour after that…”

She smiles against his mouth. “I told the girls I would be back with more butterbeer an hour ago–”

He grumbles in response, peppering kisses to her cheeks and nose. “Forget about them,” he murmurs, finding his way back to her lips. 

“You can just tell them tomorrow that you were busy having the best shag of your life.”

the jilypad serial killer AU where, in a world where the ministy has fallen in the first war, just like it does in the second, and the members of the order have to go into hiding, James, Sirius and Lily pick off Death Eaters one by one as a payback for doing the same to the order. just unhinged murderers leaving bloody smiley faces on the crime scene (so very fun xD sorry)

there is also the vampire!Sirius and vampire!Lily trying to nibble at wizard-living-in-the-woods-cottagecore-style!James

🏅 what are you most proud of accomplishing?

that I managed to write stories for all the days of @prongsfootweekarchive and @jilypadweek! it's been a while since I have written anything at all so getting back into it AND managing all I wanted to do was kind of nice

🪅 brag about any project you want to! tell us why we should be reading it RIGHT NOW!!!

taking this to brag about the Christmas story I should be editing (I know it's not posted yet but there is a snippet)

7k of Prongsfoot at 29/30, waking up on the morning of Christmas Eve after a drunken night spent together and deciding why not keep this up for the Holidays? No one has to be alone, win-win.

Be prepated for Holiday cuteness, fuff and love, James' parents being alive and well, Peter being a (rat)dad of two so Prongsfoot uncle cuteness is a thing, everyone is a little shit, there is a Christmas market and a happy ending!

Ho Ho Ho (Bring A Bottle of Booze) will come on Monday, December 23rd to an AO3 near you!

🎁 hype up one of your writing buds! what of theirs did you enjoy this year?

There were SO MANY good stories. I'm in awe of all of your talent out there but here are a few that come to mind at the top of my head:

Prongsfoot:

of romance and locker rooms by @gracelesslady23 what's not to love about Sirius and James making out in a broom closet and realizing feelings?

Nightingale by @groundzero-v fighting Death Eaters and cleaning up battle wounds, you say 👀I'm here for that, always

Sip Happens by @eastwindmlk bartender Sirius is hot, okay? I get James. I really, really get him. He's one lucky guy, really, getting a kiss out of him

Journey by @lovelymasks Sirius coming back home after being away for a long time for Doctors Without Borders (smart, capable, selfless Sirius, hello my darling). James' ‘Major W. Anker’ sign at the airport pick up will always be my favourite

Professor Black by @mycupofrum delicious age gap AU done so very right

Jilypad:

A Midnight's Change by @jmagnabo92 Sirius thinks James and Lily might eventually tire of their friends with benefits situation. they very much won't. happy new year!

two for devine, three for magic by @eastwindmlk What can I say, I just love Sirius staying with the Potters. Also never will be over Moody telling them to practice safe sex

In the middle by @mycupofrum James and Sirius getting over a treesome that got a little too insense my getting even more intense is just everything (more prongsfoot centric)

Like slow cooking a lobster by @padfootastic Half dead first time parents James and Lily are hilarious. I love how it's not perfect and smooth sailing for them and how much Sirius fits into their little family and helps and I can't wait (I will wait patently forever) for the next chapter

💞 HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Thank you!🥰 I hope you have one as well!

[siriusblackdevotee]

i love ur brain and ships so much like its so refreshing to see a multishipper who actually multiships because i have missed seeing it

On that note can i get like a list of your fav rarepairs and i mean like would NEVER interact in canon but theyre still your babies type?

AAAHH thank you!! I love seeing people enjoy my rambles!!

okay so rarepairs and would never interact in canon, so not even potentially im assuming? Bitchkiller wouldn't count in this case as there's a chance Sirius and Barty could have interacted during their time in Azkaban, right? So like that?

As I'm writing this, I realize I have way too many so I'll just, spit them all out and later rank it while crying. The first few are my ABSOLUTE favorites (because it has Sirius).

Sirius x Voldemort/Tom

Metalomagnetic has some phenomenal fics on this ship, please check them out if you're interested!! perhaps this doesn't count either because Sirius and Voldy could have interacted during Sirius' prime time as an order of the Phoenix member? It's up to you whether you want to count it or not.

Sirius x Barty x Evan

Starosekiller? Bitchkillerose? I mean yeah included bitchkiller but with Evan added in, surely it doesn't count? Rosekiller whose sex life is getting boring and needs a third, and then boom, Sirius is there, Regulus's hot older brother? Or we could go into the moral dilemma way? Sirius is like, why the fuck am I fucking my little brother's best friends who are Death eaters oh my god I'm so fucking pathetic but he keeps going back because seeing, hearing and feeling rosekiller basically worship him strokes his ego and validates his ugliness, making him feel good. Rosekillers goal is we know you're fucked up just like we are and we're gonna rip you from your high moral grounds and drag you down to hell with us, effectively poisoning him

Sirius x Rabastan Lestrange

They're just arrogant, rich boys fucking while their family is downstairs arguing political shit or whatever. Rabastan is older and he introduced Sirius to the world of gay sex. See, nothing bad!

Sirius x Greyback

Listen. It's a guilty pleasure. This isn't my fault. If Greyback was just a Chill Guy, I think he'd be similar to some fanon Remus characterizations. I haven't read the books, it seems like they'd interact but to my knowledge, they haven't right? Anyways, Sirius is a sacrifice, an offering, a bride if you will and Greyback is the monster. So you know....

Rosestar

Ignoring the headcanon that they're basically related (by marriage at least), they met at those pure blood parties (definitely not because they're related, mutual friends) and Evan immediately developed a crush on Sirius. Trust me, Regulus heard way too much. It was one sided for a while because Sirius really saw him as just some kid until Evan was actually growing taller.

Because I'm Sirius centric af, here's some more rarepairs that I LOVE but unfortunately do not count because Sirius interacted with them. Kingsley x Sirius, Sirius x Lucius, Sirius x Hagrid, Sirius x Dorcas, Saintstar (does jilypad, lilypad, prongsfoot, snirius count as rarepairs? On that note, wtf is Sirius x Severus x Remus called??)

BartyLily and Roadkill (James x Barty)!!

Separately or even a throuple. I don't think it's possible for them to have interacted in canon? I mean besides like, fighting each other during the war but Barty's identity would be hidden so is it really interaction?

James x Voldy/Tom

Is this a safe place for me to say roadkill fits them better than Barty x James? I know they interacted so they don't count either but pleaseee....I read one fanfic of this ship I think and I was open to it ever since. If it wasn't obvious, it's literal embodiment of the sun x Voldemort. But you know I was thinking...what if James was away and Lily dies (im so sorry Jily, you will be loved) protecting Harry so he comes back to his wife literally dead, Voldemort also dead, his baby crying. Then Harry's life goes on as usual, Voldemort is revived, James rejoins the order. Here, he gets kidnapped along with his son, Voldemort realizes he doesn't actually have to kill Harry so he just...keeps them around, still kidnapped. And then shit gets weirdly domestic because Voldemort has like, no reason to kill them so he's not being antagonistic anymore. So he's like, nice. And then cue James going through a moral dilemma because this is the guy who literally killed his wife. And anyways I'm rambling.

Severus x Regulus

Fanon regulus and canon Severus is basically the same person (regulus is privileged tho) and we all need to admit it. Regulus is a girlboss boyloser and Severus is a boyloser girlboss. Hence why I think they should bone. Spying against Voldemort together?? Essentially carrying the fate of the wizarding world on their backs?? Yeah they should kiss. They've definitely never interacted, Regulus died lol.

Mary x Dorcas

You know Nanami x princess Tiana? (Is that her name, I never watched it) So like, experienced Auror/Cop Dorcas, completely tired and desensitized because she keeps seeing the horrors of war, but she frequents this muggle bakery because the pastries there are quite literally the only thing keeping her humane. Mary the owner of the business is touched, she has a loyal customer that is always complimenting her bakery skills and she loves seeing her food literally bring someone back to life. Maybe at some point Dorcas realizes how cute Mary is or Mary realizes how hot Dorcas is. Also age gap. Dorcas has to be above 30. To my knowledge, they've never interacted right?

Barty x Voldemort

I don't actively ship them but...what can I say, daddy issues is daddy issuing...(It's hilarious)

Moonkiller

A lovely mutual introduced me to Barty x Remus. Their fathers work in the ministry or something so they could be childhood friends and I just fuck with it HEAVY.

Naricssa x Mrs. Zabini

I JUST REMEMBERED. Also introduced to me by the same mutual. This is hot, older, evil women core. I want them to fuck as well. Slight age gap? Or similar ages? They're BOTH cheating on their respective husbands. They say play dates for their kids, I say they're FUCKING. Bonus points if their husbands know about the affair but help keep it under wraps because of their reputation. But also like, they get it. You know what, throuple time, squad time?

Dorcas x Naricssa

I don't even know what this ship is. Naricssa is absolutely cheating on Lucius with her lol. They're both hot, older, strong woman. Dorcas doesn't know Naricssa is married to a death eater, Naricssa doesn't know Dorcas is basically an undercover cop. Will they break up? Will Naricssa help Dorcas? Will Dorcas cover her and her family? Hmm...

Bellatrix x Voldemort x Barty

This was meant to be just Barty x Bellatrix because hot lunatic girlboss x hot lunatic boytoy. But also Barty loves having such a respected, powerful Death Eater's attention and he's hella obedient, freaky both sexually and criminally so Bellatrix is into that. And then I realized both of them are Voldy's most capable henchmen so like, now I want them to share him whenever missions turn out very successfully. As a reward. Is Bellamort evil prongsfoot?

Moonwater/Quillkiller

There's no chance they could interact in canon but is it a rarepair anymore? I don't think I have to explain what's so attractive about this ship. Up to you if you want to count it in or not.

Moonrose

Evan and Remus are insecure little shits, the least coolest in their respective friend groups (in their eyes) I rambled about them a little bit here.

Andromeda stays untouched with Ted, I fear they are way too goated for a canon straight couple. I want all the hot rich ladies to cheat on their hot rich husbands and then those hot rich husbands would be okay with it cause they are submissive like that. I promise you, Lucius, Mr.Zabini and Rodolophus are ok with the cheating.

This took me an entire day because my head is an absolute mess, I'm knocked out from my exams. Sorry anon for the late response!!

[hiddenmoonbeam]

Question of the day: if your otp didn't exist (maybe the whole story gets poofed from existence, maybe they just got written out during edits) what ship do you think you'd be obsessed with instead and why?

Ahhh thank you for sending this 🤩

I feel I have a pretty boring answer for this. When I fell back into HP two years ago I'd left my childhood obsession behind with no intention to return in any form, and the only reason I'm here now was because I started seeing wolfstar fanart that reminded me of how young these two really were in PoA - and during the first war. And so I tried some fics. And got sucked right in. I barely slept for a few days there, just read lmao.

And well if this hadn't happened, I would still be focusing on my own original projects, and so my obsession would be my own characters. Which is so very lonely in comparison.

I'm not generally very invested in fandoms and ships, rarely read fic, and have only once before gotten so obsessed with a ship I started writing fic for them. It's sadly just not easy to make me care this much 😭 and I'd missed it and making fandom friends, so I'm very pleased to be here now. But yeah. If it weren't for the history and nostalgia I already had with and for this world, and how obsessed I got with Sirius specifically, well 🤷‍♀️ I don't think any other hp ship or character could have dragged me back. And I can’t really think of any other ship at all (besides my own) that could hold my interest enough to make me obsessed...unless maybe if Sirius still exists and can be part of it..... now I enjoy prongsfoot and jilypad (and whatever the name is for wolfstar+jily) too but yeah without wolfstar I wouldn’t be here in the first place.

[padfootastic]

Jilypad Week 2023!!

organised by the amazingggg @jmagnabo92 💜

Day 4 - Favorite type of story that you like to Read and/or Write for this ship?

oooh okay so, my top tier tropes for any ship really are 1. outsider POV and 2. getting together. i love it when character dynamics are explored through an unfamiliar gaze, and u get to see nuances that might otherwise be taken for granted. even from the writing side, when ur writing the ship from outsider pov, you’ve really gotta think about what ur characters are like and how others perceive them and that gives it a certain…depth?

and getting together is always fun! the back and forths, the temporary angst, the shift from friends to something more and in jilypad u get even more drama w the polyamory!! it only gets better!!

for jilypad, specifically, hmmm. one trope i really like is jily james pining over sirius and lily noticing first and helping him get there. sirius being confused as shit.

also! smutty smut. i love all the dynamics. j&s teaming up to make lily lose her mind. s&l going at it like rabbits while j is away, making him burn across their mirrors. j&l slowly sending sirius into their marital bed. gimme all of it *grabby hands*
