i just looked at my ao3 and i haven’t posted ?????? anything since OCTOBER ??? i barely write these days but i am (slowly) working on a maryjames canon compliant one-shot <3

Dear Mary,

Do you remember back at school when I would always give you piggyback rides between classes? Or, rather, you’d demand them. Either way, I think maybe it fucked up my back permanently. I feel it every time I pick Harry up, and Lily always makes fun of me for it. She says I’m too young for back problems. I feel a little guilty sometimes for how comforting I find the ache, though. It makes me think of you. It’s nice having some sort of evidence of you even when you’re not here. Sometimes, when I’m alone, I pick up heavy things around the house just to feel you with me.

I love my family, you know; and I love being married. I love being a dad and I’m good at it. Maybe I still would’ve been good at it if I hadn’t been in such a rush to get there.

I’m a good husband, Mary. I think I could’ve been a better one if I hadn’t been such a fool. Did you think I was a fool? Knowing you, I’m sure you did.

Love,

James

sunday mid week snippet

thank u @godsofwoes for the tag mwah

here’s a little snippet from my canon maryjames letters au. which ive been writing all night…..

We didn’t talk much that day, but I remember looking for you all the same. You stood behind Lily at the altar, and I remember how the sun peeking through the massive windows made your hair look golden. I can’t remember if Lily wore her hair up or down. I’m trying so hard to remember, but my mind comes up blank.

I thought I was a good man. I used to pride myself on it. All I ever wanted was to be a good man. I wanted to be like my father more than anything in the world. I wanted a relationship like my parents. I wanted the fairytale ending and I thought I was getting it. I was so sure, Mary.

What were you going to say? On my wedding day? It’s eating me up, not knowing. I’ve convinced myself it was something important. Another thing that just passed me by because I wasn’t paying attention. Because I took everything for granted.

All I ever wanted was everything I ever dreamed of.

It’s not all that, it turns out.

I’m a little tipsy, and you were beautiful. You were beautiful on my wedding day and I can’t remember how my wife wore her hair.

Yours,

James
