Can he draw?
-White Lily: That's very beautiful.
-Hollyberry: Haha! You're quite an artist!
-Golden Cheese: Hmm, well, not bad, buddy!
-Pure Vanilla: It's a great job, my old friend.
(Now I wear this drawing under my phone case (ÂŽâœ`ÊâĄÆȘ). I am sure that according to my head canon, he can draw. After all, it is important for the king to be not only strong but also trained in literacy and art.)

Personally I think jily is supposed to be idealized (like how James and lily were idealized) to Harry. James gets knocked of his pedestal in swm and so does jily by Harry questioning if his father forced his mother into marriage. Later when talking to lupin and Sirius James and Jily get a slight defense and Harry is back to feeling alright but with the knowledge that things werenât perfect.
I personally donât read Jily as abusive (even though I read James as being abusive to snape at school, but I donât think that violent, physical behavior was extended to Lily) but I definitely donât read them as a âgoodâ couple (whatever that means). I think you can read it in many different ways given there is so little of them and I think an interpretation that their relationship wasnât the healthiest is perfectly plausible with the scant information weâre given.
Yeahhhh thatâs probably what JKR intended. James and Lily are the fridged parents who are dearly mourned and missed, and as a result, their flaws are completely smoothed over in everyoneâs memories. But in Snapeâs Worst Memory, Harry learns the hard lesson that things arenât always what they seem, and that nobody is perfect, not even his dead father. Hurrah.
My problem with this is that I think itâs very boring, LOL. Like it really is probably exactly what JKR intended (given her middle-of-the-road takes on every moral and political question that happens in these books), but man, it feels like such a cop out. James basically ruins Snapeâs life for no reason, and the conclusion weâre meant to draw from this is just, well, people are complicated! NO!!!! Bad answer!!! Like, Snape also did some terrible things, but at least he spends a ton of pages actively suffering/atoning for his sins. But James, on the other hand, is only somewhat implied to have changed maybe slightly a little bit somewhere off-page, and we just have to take #1 James Potter fanboy Sirius Black and serial understater Remus Lupin at their word. So if James was supposed to be âredeemedâ â or even just excused â wow, it really doesn't work for me. You can't go as dark as "protagonist questions if his father forced his mother into marriage" and then just brush it off like no big deal, Joanne! And itâs so frustrating, because all it would've taken to fix this would've been to show James being a good person instead of just telling the reader that he was one (proof: trust me?). Ugh.
So because of all that, I agree that from what weâre given, itâs quite difficult to read Jily as âgood.â We rarely see them interact, and when we do, Jamesâs behavior is wayyyy too similar to the trope of âterrible guy eventually gets the girl even though she seems to hate him with every fiber of her being because his persistence and not taking no for an answer is just toooo romantic to resist.â Which sucks, lol. It feels like JKR is basically being like, âeh, James was young and dumb, whateverâ and giving him a huge out for all the grief he caused Snape (and Lily, for that matter) â and she expects that the reader will agree that that is a legitimate excuse for his behavior, and by extension think that it's reasonable for Lily to forgive and eventually marry him. And man, I am just not sure if that is enough to convince me. (And evidently, I'm not alone, considering the âJily is abusiveâ meta post that likely sparked this ask!)
With that said, I agree that itâs a stretch to say that James was abusive (or even implied to be abusive) toward Lily. Itâs not a completely unfounded take â it could probably be written well in a fic, and even be canon compliant â but you would really have to extrapolate that dynamic from the little information weâre given (as you pointed out). And more importantly (at least, re: that meta), I don't think JKR intended that interpretation at all.
Personally, I just donât think it makes sense for the narrative for James and Lily to have been in an abusive relationship. And by the narrative, I mean Harry. If Jily is an abusive (or even just bad) relationship, that would have massive ramifications for the way Harry sees his parents. Ideally he would have to come to terms with that at some point â I donât think it makes sense for Jamesâs and Lilyâs relationship to have been this way and not have significantly affected Harry â but imo JKR clearly does not want to deal with that. Like you said, the point of SWM â aside from foreshadowing Lily and Snapeâs relationship â was to knock James off his pedestal and basically go, See, nobodyâs perfect. <3 And the story is not interested in engaging with Jamesâs behavior on a level any deeper than that lol. Which ok, I donât love it, but if weâre not going to spend time dealing with morally gray James, then it doesnât make sense for him to be even more morally gray (or rather, have him fall face first over the line into becoming a downright despicable person) by making him abusive toward Lily.
So that's my Doylist analysis: no way in hell did JKR intend Jily to be an abusive relationship, but she also didn't do a good enough job defending and/or redeeming James after SWM, so we're just left to speculate about how much he really changed. Still, I don't think "JKR is a bad writer" is a very satisfying answer. After all, the only reason that I'm engaging with this text in the first place is because I'm a fan of it, so I think it's also worth looking at it from a Watsonian perspective â or at least, to accept the events of the book as they're written and try to fill in the blanks. (Imo so much of the fun of fandom is trying to fill in those blanks in a satisfying way, to expand upon a character and try to reach a more interesting conclusion than the author did... And I would be remiss not to mention that, because it undoubtedly influences the way that I (and probably also you, if you're on this side of tumblr) engage with the text.)
So for me, as a Marauders era fan, Iâm faced with: ok, I donât really like the idea of these two characters together, but they canonically got together, and I think the story is better because they got together, and itâs better if they genuinely like each other, and it all had to happen somehow â so how can I explain it in a way that both makes sense with the story and is satisfying to me? And my answer to that is twofold.
First, I imagine that James was not always quite such an awful guy (as in, not always as showy, combative, and cruel as he was in SWM). After all, there is a glimmer of goodness in him when he chooses to save Snapeâs life during the Prank, revealing that somewhere deep down, he does in fact have a moral compass. And second, I think that he has to have changed. And I mean a genuine change â one that might not have resulted in completely different behavior (after all, he was still hexing Snape through his seventh year) â but regardless, something that makes him seriously reflect on his actions and reconsider his motivations. His behavior in SWM is just too inexcusable for him to get with Lily â partly because Lily is generally framed as a Very Good Person, and partly because regardless of how she is framed, James was still awful to her â without any self-reflection or growth. Of course, the problem then becomes explaining this in a satisfying way!
And I have some ideas in mind â but theyâre definitely more speculation than fact, and omg this post is long enough already. Luckily, I received another ask on this topic, so I will save my self-indulgent headcanons for that.
There is one last thing I want to mention, which is (part of) my reasoning for why James may not have been such a bully all the time and why I think he has the capacity for change, and it's been nagging at me ever since I read that meta post (which again, presumably started this whole thing). I think one thing that bothers a lot of people (including me!) about James is that it seems like he chooses to pick on Snape in SWM because of Lilyâs presence. He wants to show off to her, so he keeps looking over to the girls by the water, he ruffles his hair, he deepens his voice, and he tries to get her attention by targeting Snape. Following this logic, we can presume that James wouldnât have done any of this if Lily hadnât been there â and thatâs the part that got me thinking. I have to wonder if Lily was perhaps not the only person who James wanted to impress in that scene⊠in fact, I think itâs incredibly likely that James would have acted differently if the Marauders hadnât been there! (Harry has "the distinct impression that Sirius was the only one for whom James would have stopped showing off," and Sirius saying that he's bored is the inciting incident for James spotting Snape...!) Yes itâs going to be a James masculinity analysis because this is what happens every time I talk about these fucking characters apparently. So idk, stick around if youâre into that.
And of course, thank you for the ask!
#iâm sure this was more than you bargained for lol but i hope this answer was satisfactory. it took me a whole week to write đ#actually i guess it wasn't rly an answer because there wasn't rly a question. we're having high-minded debates in the literary salon lol#that said feel free to put more takes/opinions/questions/whatever in my ask box. i love to chitchat#asks#my posts#meta#hp meta#jily#james potter#lily evans#anti jily#pro jily#<- it really is both tho.#hp#hp fandom#hp marauders#marauders era#lily potter#harry potter#harry potter fandom#harry potter meta#the marauders era#marauders#marauders fandom#mwpp#wizarding world

âI donât think Snapeâs redemption arc was goodâ. Thatâs because it didnât happen. No, Iâm serious, Snape didnât have a redemption arc in the books. His redemption happened literally before the first book. We only hear about it, but we donât see it, because itâs not relevant. What is relevant, is the knowledge that he is on Harryâs side. The Princeâs Tale was not a redemption, it was a reveal. In the Princeâs Tale itâs revealed that Snape has redeemed himself, itâs revealed that he is on Harryâs side. We're not shown his redemption arc, we're shown why we - or more specifically, why Harry - should believe that he is on his side. Do you really think Snape cares if people think heâs good? He doesnât care about being redeemed in Harryâs or anyoneâs eyes, all he cares about is that Harry believes him. Thatâs why weâre shown Lilyâs and his relationship, so we understand what motivates him in the most raw, and bare level. Even if Harry doesnât believe that heâs good, heâll understand that Snape would do anything for Lily, and therefore anything to protect Harry. Weâre shown him and Dumbledore, so weâll know that he is following Dumbledoreâs orders and that Dumbledore trusts him. Again, Harry doesnât have to think that Snape is good, he just needs to trust that heâs following Dumbledoreâs orders.
Itâs not a redemption, itâs a reveal.

Also boredđ
, here we go:
What do you hc their clothing style to be like? (Marauders + anyone you have strong opinions about)
What do you think their favorite colors are?
Do you have a prongsfoot anthem? (I think you might have posted about that recently but I cannot find it)
Fashion:
i canât describe their clothing style, to be honest, so iâll just put some pictures and hope that those convey it enough đ
james potter: james is all about being comfortable. he prefers lighter, sporty clothing, usually in the gryffindor colors; he likes to show off his house pride even when not necessary.
modern james era-accurate (ish) james
sirius black: sirius is all about leather and denim. even in modern times, he likes incorporating pieces of older fashion in his wardrobe. he prefers oversized fits and likes layering
modern sirius era-accurate (ish) sirius
remus lupin: remus prefers keeping a classy, gradfather-looking attire. heâs a fan of corduroy and earthy tones. jumpers are a classic for him, but he likes flannel as well
modern remus era-accurate (ish) remus
peter pettigrew: peter, too, is a fan of flannel. however, his wardrobe features more colours, and his style cannot be pinpointed and assigned to just one thing.
modern peter era-accurate (ish) peter
bonus! lily evans: lily evans is a classic of old-school preppy, especially the era-accurate lily. modern lily is a fan of maxi skirts and earthy tones. she will, however, always like scarves
modern lily era-accurate (ish) lily
Favourite colors:
james potter: two very specific shades; one of grey, and one of bright green (i think we all know what i mean when i say that)
sirius black: navy blue and a very specific shade of brown that means a lot for him
remus lupin: brown, but he also likes a dark, washed out blue; think old jeans. also, one certain shade of grey
peter pettigrew: bright, blood red; to him, that is the colour of belonging, of having a place in the world
bonus! lily evans: her favourite colours change, depending on the season and her fashion choices at that moment. however, red and brown are always included
Prongsfoot anthem:
my prongsfoot anthem are always you (depeche mode) and mind over matter (young the giant). however, if someone wants me to, i can make them a playlist!
#asks#sirius black#remus lupin#james potter#peter pettigrew#lily evans#thank you for the ask! i had a lot of fun answering all of the questions <3

i know this is a golden trio blog (RIGHTFULLY SO. WE NEED MORE OF THEM) but do you have a favorite marauder and why?
Hi! Tysm for the ask! Iâm happy to talk about things outside of the trio as well, dw!
I would say definitely Sirius. Iâve always had a soft spot for Sirius.
Heâs the parent Harry always wanted. Heâs strong and funny and caring and always puts Harry first. Ron & Hermione protect Harry when they can and he is definitely one of their top priorities, but there are things he feels too shameful or stupid about to say to them, and he doesnât feel like he can expect them to care for him. With Sirius heâs allowed to have that expectation and to confide things in him that heâs not ready to with his friends yet. Itâs such an important thing for any kid to have and for Harry, who never had that at all, it means SO MUCH to him.
It really makes his death more devastating than it would be if Sirius was just a cool character that was around sometimes, instead of a presence that you can feel through Harry by virtue of him essentially being his parent.
I donât hold his irritation in OOTP against him. He and Harry both feel trapped, both are dealing with trauma and loss, and both are dealing with a lot of unresolved issues in general. I think thereâs supposed to be a parallel here. Itâs hard for me to stomach a grown man escaping prison only to be held prisoner in the house he was raised in surrounded by hate and bigotry (and, I think itâs pretty ambiguous in the text iirc, but potentially experienced / witnessed abuse).
In general heâs a comforting presence that is relatable and just extremely fun to be around, to watch and talk to and ask questions because you know he will take Harry seriously but still see him as a child. Iâm sure he has moments where he thinks of Harry as James but I really do think he mostly sees him as Harry and is a GOOD father figure when heâs not being driven mad through confinement.
This isnât to say that Sirius isnât very flawed. All good characters are!
As for the other maraudersâ I would say Lupin is close 2nd. Heâs got a lot of the strengths that Sirius has but his habitual self isolation and just. Leaving Harry. Kinda bring him down for me. It doesnât make him a bad personâ I really relate to the instinct to just remove yourself out of shameâ but heâs a less present and less reliable figure in Harryâs life.
James is interesting. I wouldâve loved to learn more about him & Lily in the books, but I suppose our limited knowledge is partially the point⊠Iâm not anti-James, but heâs definitely not flawless himself and I think that makes him a better character. As for Lily (shes an honorary marauder I guess, lol) I wish we got more of her like we did James! Weâve seen her, weâve learned about her, but she seems too⊠perfect.
Peter.
#ask#harry potter#ron weasley#hermione granger#the marauders#sirius black#james potter#lily evans#remus lupin#peter pettigrew#I think we could have learned more about Peter too. I just donât have many thoughts on him#in my head heâs kind of like Neville if he fucking sucked lol#also Iâm definitely not counting Snape as a marauder. I think some people do#Iâm not rlly part of that fandom so idk the prevailing thoughts on Peter or snapes placement in this so Iâll save that for another time#anyways! hope this answered your question!!!

Severus Snape, The Lost Lily, and A Certain Kind of Courage
Not enough credit is given for the type of courage that allows an insecure boy to stand in enemy territory and apologize. It is the same type of courage that has allowed him to behave as a spy in the most dangerous situations of the story. The books inform us that Severus has insulted Lily multiple times, perhaps indirectly, when in conversation because of his constant acquaintance with Slytherins who referred to her as a Mudblood. In order to maintain relations with his Housemates, he needed to use the same vocabulary otherwise they would ostracize him along side the rest of the school. The books also say that Lily forgave him frequently for these transgresses and even defended him to her friends. Because of these references, she might not have had the slur directed at her from Severusâs own mouth. Only in passing in referring to the Muggleborn population. This could explain her outrage at the callous behavior Severus gave her following the âWorst Memoryâ incident and why she never forgave him.
To better understand why Lily took the derogatory slur so harshly, one needs to understand why Severus would have lashed out in such a horrid manner. Many readers insist that there is no forgiveness for this behavior, but circumstances pushed him into a no win situation.
First of all, the Marauders attacked Severus unprovoked. (This isnât say that Severus never attacked first, but in this instance he was the victim) James Potterâs attacks were less harmful in the physical sense, but emotionally they caused embarrassment and lasting mental damage to Severus from the inability to defend himself. Second, Lily attempted to call Jamesâs off no less than six times (HP OotP, Ch. 28). Fueling Severusâs embarrassment to have a girl defend him yet again when James actually relented.Â
âThere you go,â he said, as Snape struggled to his feet again, âyouâre lucky Evans was here, Snivellus ââ
âI donât need help from filthy little Mudbloods like her!â
Lily blinked. âFine,â she said cooly. âI wonât bother in the future. And Iâd wash your pants if I were you Snivellus.â (HP OotP Ch. 28)
There was a moment hesitation in Lilyâs response that suggests surprise and shock, inferring that Severus had never referred to her directly as a Mudblood. Lily not one to be insulted returned in kind which no doubt destroyed Severusâs heart. His one friend and defender had abandoned him. This was likely the moment when Severus knew he had made the most grievous error of his life.
This error was fueled by years of influence by Slytherins such as Malfoy, Nott, and Mulciber. Severus had grown accustom to the slurâs constant use in casual reference and was expected to use the term without hesitation. By this point in his schooling years he was probably having to hide his interest in having Lily as a friend publicly in order to stay friends with his Housemates.Â
The stress and embarrassment of the situation in such a public manner likely did cause Severusâs vocabulary to slip out the insult. He needed to appear as the consummate Slytherin in the eyes of his racially bigoted friends and he had to appear self reliant in terms of the stereotypical male who does not seek protection from women. Most all cultures have this image of a strong male and seem to indicate that needing a female to fight his battles is considered weak. Given the home life of Severus Snape he likely learned this behavior from a strong willed Tobias Snape.Â
While no one is free from fault, circumstances, stress, embarrassment, shame and anger do cause people to say and do things they would otherwise not do. This combination of emotions does cause people to act irrationally. Teenagers are the best examples of people making irrational decisions. Everything from trying illegal drugs, drinking and driving, and defying a parent because of a simple misunderstanding are examples from real life. Granting another chance to people who do make horrible decisions while stressed is up to the victim of the attack. In this case, Lily decided that there could be no more chances.
Now with the emotional state of Severus Snape explained, it is time to talk about the courage it took to stand in front of the Gryffindor Common Room demanding to see Lily. He threatened to sleep there which meant he did not care about the rules or how the students of Slytherin would laugh at his decision. At that moment in his life Severus cared about nothing more than apologizing and seeking forgiveness for what he had done. Admitting fault is a difficult thing to do at the best of times, carrying with it the shame and humiliation all its own. Doing so publicly takes great courage. This is the courage of doing what must be done.Â
Severus Snape, who is not like by many people, influenced by hatred and bigotry, and faces ridicule for his choices, is able to swallow his pride and do what he knows is right. Argue that this is only because he does not want to loose Lily Evans and that would be correct. At this point in his life he has very little support in the social structure. He needs all the friends he can find. At this point in his life sexual interests have not been revealed. There is no evidence that he sought after Lily for anything other than a friend.Â
The courage it took to stand there and listen to Lily reject him while trying to apologize is breathtaking. This is the courage that allows him to stand before great evil and not waver. He has already felt the guilt of being unable to save what is lost. So he tries to salvage what he can. At this turning point in his life he is crying out for help but is unable to express himself. He wants to do right but his only outlet pulls him deeper into Voldemortâs grasp. With his last bridge of friendship with Lily burned, he likely had no more strength to resist the inclusion he felt with his Death Eater friends.
He still had the strength of mind to feel concern for Lilyâs safety. Keep in mind that when the prophecy was first heard and reported no one knew who the child was. Severus had made the only choice he felt was left to him by becoming a Death Eater and in his mind getting even with Dumbledore by reporting the prophecy would have been high on his list of priorities. It was not until Voldemort chose his victim did anyone know who was in danger. Severus probably felt extreme guilt at passing the information, but he could not have known that Voldemort would choose the Potters as the most dangerous.Â
To his credit, Severus had the courage to ask the Dark Lord to spare Lilyâs life. Many people, including Dumbledore, ask why ask for only the womanâs life. The reason is clear. Voldemort had chosen his victim and if Severus Snape had ask for the family to be spared then he would appear to be a traitor and destroyed. He could get away with asking for a woman he had loved since childhood. Voldemort knew of sexual desires and assumed Severus asked for a woman because he desired her. This is where the sexual definition of love started to develop. Severus never claimed it was true only that Voldemort made that assumption. Severus allowed the assumption to stand because it shielded him from suspicion.Â
When he begged Dumbledore for Lilyâs life, Dumbledore accused him of only caring about her. Given the known history that would be a safe assumption. Of course Lily is Severusâs first thought. She was his first and only best friend. There would be some resentment over James Potter putting her in danger. But notice that it was not Dumbledore who insisted on protecting the family. Dumbledore asked âwhy did you not ask Voldemort to save the whole family?â which is a ridiculous thing to ask the man trying to kill said family. Severus was the one to volunteer the request to save the family. Yes, he wanted Lily safe and understood that to do so would require saving her family. He would not see James and Harry killed for the sake of one person.
Severus made a dangerous choice in seeking out Dumbledore. He is shown to be afraid during the confrontation, starting out by begging, âDonât kill me!â Severus knew this meeting could easily end in his death or imprisonment and Lily was more important than either. His courage was fueled by fear at this point, but he still knew what had to be done and was willing to face the consequences.
During the Voldemortâs second rise to power, Severus hung between trust and traitor. He walked in two worlds where people refused to believe he was truly on their side. Constantly having to put up with the comments and insults. He bore this as best as his bitterness allowed him. But when faced with the task of killing Dumbledore, the courage needed to complete it was overwhelming. From Severusâs own memories it is known that he did not want to do as ordered. As shown with Draco Malfoy, killing is not so easy a task when oneâs heart is not evil. This again is the courage of what must be done. Not because it is right, or because it is glamorous. But because it is the only option to reach the end goal.Â
Traditional heroes would have balked at killing a friend who would otherwise die a horrible death. Readers curse Severus for this action, one among many. If this horrible decision had not been made, then the ability to protect the students at Hogwarts and pass along vital information to Harry at the right time would never have come to be.Â
No matter how furious the Order of the Phoenix was at Severusâs actions, they needed him to do the dirty work of spying for them. With the information he brought them, they could then be the heroes everyone expects.

Hello, inspired anon here again âšïž
Happy you liked that ask and now it's yours to keep.
There were some details that I wasn't able to include in the skit about the angels thinking about Reader being God's sibling (leaning towards sister obviously) so I'll just include them here. There isn't really any talk about them being self aware and feel free to pick and choose any parts you like for yourself (also there is some easter eggs of a particular game I like, so expect that too).
Emily originally through Reader was God too but realised that they didn't act or sound like the way other people described God which started her thinking that they must be two different beings.
Emily wants to know if Reader has created their own Heaven, Hell and Earth or something completely different and if she could go and see them. She also wonders if Readers Earth would have its own humans, she can't exactly call them Adam and Eve so she calls them Alex and Steve.
Emily doesn't like that Sera stops her from talking to others about Reader, she just wants everyone to welcome this new deity and wants someone to gush over how God has a little sibling.
Emily likes to draw what she imagines Readers 'seraphim' would look like which are basically normal many eyed, many winged seraphim but with insect wings, mainly butterfly and moth ones, instead of feathered ones since Reader takes the form of a butterfly, she draws them in her idea of Readers heaven which involves lots of floating islands under a vast starry sky. She has made Sera and herself 'Reader angelsona' but keeps them hidden.
Sera was 100% sure that Reader was God until Emily's talk. Sera took along time to agree that Reader isn't God but someone else but still is hesitant to actually say that, God does like to test people and she fears that if they are mistaken and Reader is really just God in disguise that they would be harshly punished for blasphemy.
She also worries that if this IS a different God, then what does it mean for heavens future? Is this new God going to upset the balance of the universe? She would be powerless to stop them if they were going to. Good chance she'd think Pentious's redemption is Readers doing instead of God's.
She would eventually give Reader a vague title such as The Observer or The Watcher to distinguish them from The Lord without full differentiating them, just to play it safe.
Adam would claim that Emily, and eventually Sera, are just crazy for thinking that there's another God after the shock of Emily's talk passed. Firmly believes that there is only one divine being, the big G man himself. This is a lie though as he almost instantly believed that Reader is different to God, he should know since he used to talk to God alot.
Adam actually is in hard denial since he's actually extremely worried. He knows one of the reasons God favoured him so much was because he was made in his image, so would that mean you would favour Lillith and maybe even Eve if they were made in your image? He knows that he doesn't exactly have the best history with them and he's worried that you'd believe their telling of events over his, he's seen what happens to those that anger a God and he doesn't want any of that happening to him.
On the other hand, he does still want to meeting Read. He's sure that he'd win them over with his charm once them met and well, he wouldn't mind thanking them for being the blueprint of all women.
Lute isn't really bothered if Reader is God or not. As far as she's concerned, it doesn't really effect her. She has a job to do and as long as Reader doesn't have an issue with it then she'll just carry on just as she's always done.
Sure Lute is curious about there possibly being another divine being and had thought about trying to prepare plans just incase Reader was planning to take Heaven from God but she realised that it would be pointless to try and fight something as powerful as a deity.
Lute is concerned for Adam though. She is worried about how Adam isn't taking the idea of there being a second deity well and is worried that he'd accidentally offend Reader and be punished for it.
St. Peter hasn't been told about the idea of Reader not being God and is under strict order to welcome them as much as possible and to alert Sera of their presence when spotted.
I genuinely had to reread 3 times because I just had no words anonđ Whoever you are, goddamn bless you, I'm so using your ideas once I get to writing heaven-
I have nothing really to add to this perfection, but I do wanna say that I will still try to keep in mind to use gender-neutral terms, even with the fact that it will imply reader is female because of the image that Lilith and Eve were made from is supposedly reader and shit, I will still use things like 'sibling' and stuff in the works to make it as gn as possibleđ
#âblueprint of all womenâ ANON PLEASE#St. Peter is kept in the dark lmao#I now had the idea of actually making them NOT self aware up until meeting reader#like they will simply think reader is gods sibling#no thoughts or knowing that they are fictional charas#and then boom#meeting reader and their world shatters into million piecesđ€©#or maybe they find out before meeting reader bcs of someone from hell#either way makes them question their whole life anyway#hazbin hotel x reader#hazbin hotel x y/n#hazbin hotel x you#hazbin#self aware hazbin hotel#self aware au#sahha#Ëâ±lily answersâ°Ë#âœâFlower's answerââŒ

1) what's your favorite fanfic of all time? the one you're thinking about almost every day
2) how can someone become a moot with you?
3) what does your dream date look like?
hello my darling nonie!!
thankyou very much for feeding my ask addiction, hehe i love answering them in between bursts of writing :3
now lemme answer!
1 - my fave fanfic of all time? hmmm.
this is such a big biiiig question. i have a lot of talented moots, and i have quite a few of their fics that i think about all the time. like @neptuneblue âcupidâs quiverâ and @twentyfivemiceinatrenchcoat âsometimes i long to eat you upâ. any of @dollsuguru snippets i greedily scoff too lol. @pinknipszz heian era sukuna drabbles are little gemstones, the vibes are immaculate. ooo i also think of @bungalowbear âwolves of tokyoâ too, again because, VIBES!!
however my top one that takes up a lot of my thoughts is the series âthe odysseyâ by @lovenona . i really take my hat off to this author and the series for getting me back into writing. the story is so brilliantly crafted, and the writing is absolutely astonishing and dreamy. adele took my brain to another world and needs to win a fanfic award ASAPPPP!
i have my fav art/fics under my favorites tag if youâd like to see more :)
2 - you wanna be moots?!?!? letâs be moots :3
honestly though i really donât mind anyone reaching out to me, as long as we interact in a respectful way and keep it relatively light. please donât be shy, i really hope iâm not intimidating hehe :)
and if you are too shy, plsplsplspls give me an emoji or something so i can assign it to you! then we can still chat and iâll know itâs you (kinda, lol) (btw :3nonie if youâre seeing this, I MISS YOU WHERE DID YOU GO?!??)
helpful hint i guess â I LOVE TOJI!! in case you havenât noticed already, i have a lot of toji brainrot hehe, so that is the way to my heart eheh :3 @tadabzzzbee is well aware of this hahaha
commenting your thoughts or how much you liked my fics really makes my day, and chances are i will instantly follow you if youâre consistently interacting with my pieces! because while i do notice my regular likers, but itâs people who comment that i really remember and am more inclined to follow!
3 - dream date?!?!?!
HMMMM!!! i suppose a picnic date on the beach, on a day when itâs pleasantly warm and i wonât be cold at all, so i can wear my pretty summer clothes. strawberries and fresh cream is a MUSTTTT!! ooo and fresh lemonade would be wonderful too hehe.
#đ lily answers#ask game#I loved these questions nonie!!!!#thankyou so much for sending them in :3

what do you think that the marauders + the valkyries wanted to do after hogwarts, like jobs and stuff, in a world where nobody died and peter didn't betray them and all that
oh, definitely an interesting question!
i think that, despite the general consensus of auror, james would have been a fantastic quidditch player. it was always a passion for him, and being able to do something that he both likes and is good at is something that he loves. or a househusband.
remus would be a professor. maybe in hogwarts, or a muggle school, i donât know, but itâs pretty much the only thing i can see him doing. or tutoring, but itâs in the educational field as well. i think he has that professor air to him.
i see peter as someone whoâs very interested and invested in peopleâs lives (much like me, actually), so i could see him maybe working for a newspaper? the daily prophet, perhaps? or in the quibbler, with xenophilius, but iâd go for the former.
as in for sirius, i think he wouldnât work in the wizarding world. i honestly see him as a tattoo artist, itâs something that has been on my mind for a while now that started the muggle, alternative universe. in the wizarding world, though? definitely not an auror.
lily would be a healer. sheâs good with people and wants to help them, and her knowledge in potions, herbology and medicine definitely help. i think she might have helped madam pomfrey ay some point, like some sort of trainee.
for dorcas iâm not sure. iâd like to say a ministry employee, though, because i feel like she has a very strong sense of morally right and wrong and of justice, so i think she could do great things if she put her mind to it, which she absolutely does.
i really like @enbysiriusblackâs headcanon for marlene and how she would be into broommaking, i can see her doing that, but for the same reasons i have mentioned for dorcas, i think she could also do for a great auror.
mary would be a mazoologist. i think she was particularly into CoMC, which is exactly what is needed for the job. and, besides, sheâs always loved animals. however, if she worked in the muggle world, i would go for something completely different.
#hope this answers your question!!!#james potter#remus lupin#peter pettigrew#sirius black#lily evans#dorcas meadowes#marlene mckinnon#mary macdonald#asks#anon asks#headcanons
