Little Lily Evans who is upset she has to go to Hogwarts because Oxford won't accept that as valid secondary school so her chances for college are over is so dear to me.

you hate lily but ship jeverus???? just what's wrong with you???? that guy threatened to take his underwear off, that's straight up assault. you want that for severus????? that guy????

Let's see, let's see, let's see

I won't color it because it makes me angry that people think one thing directly without thinking that there is something more with arguments

I don't ship that, technically I hate Lily and James

James was a shitty person and when he did that he should have gone to jail, I don't doubt that there was even that and more to Snape and that's why Snape hates Harry so much, Since I might remember the trauma that James gave him, in the Latin dubbing of the movie, they called James a pig, so, it's accurate.

I know about that, it really gives you an incredible hatred for the person who does that shit to you, and more so when you don't get justice and nobody believes you or believe you because you are a outcast (I worked in hospitals, in health centers and also because of personal experiences with sexual abuse)

This is a collaboration and I'm not afraid to give my opinion that Lily and James Potter were shitty people.

Everyone idealizes Lily, they fell into the same thing as Snape, that she is supposedly an angel

She LET her "friend" SUFFER FOR IT

She couldn't even tell anyone?, but above all

WHERE WERE THE TEACHERS?!

DID THEY TURN A BLIND EYE WHEN A STUDENT WAS ABUSED?!

Obviously Snape screwed up really hard, he is a victim and an aggressor at the same time.

A victimizer

In particular, I hate Snape shipping with the Marauders, or Lily or Lucius or anyone who isn't in their right mind or doesn't treat Snape with descent.

I don't make ships, I rarely make ships, I only draw characters, and if this is a collaboration of this character with James, it's because I like the person with whom I do the collaboration.

My thinking is based on that, not the ship, so kindly I ask you to not assume nonsense that no one told you, thank you sweetie, have a nice day <3

I also don't doubt that just because of a ship people are not good people, it's stupid to assume that, unless they make ships with minors, that is, maps, or make incestuous ships...

And yes, I'm pro Snape, But at the same time we have to remember that we shouldn't fight over a stupid thing like this, even so, it makes me nervous that they believe nonsense about me when they don't even know me

“there has been another attack this weekend, as you may have found out,” their defence the dark arts professor, a woman with waves of dark hair whose name lily hadn’t remembered, still, said. “a whole family has been wiped away from the safety of their own home in leeds.”

“the death eaters,” black said, without even bothering with putting his hand up.

the woman nodded, gravely, and lily saw severus snape’s eyes burning the back of his head; turning around, leaning on the two back legs of his chair, his arm propped up on peter pettigrew’s desk, black returned the ferocious glare.

lily’s hand shot up. “they were muggles. another attack against defenceless muggles.”

once again, the professor nodded. “defenceless, because you cannot save yourself from the killing curse, even as a wix, let alone a muggle. which is why,” she said, and the blackboard turned around to face them, “we will today be discussing the unforgivable curses.”

her hand shot up again, and potter leaned forward against the desk. black smacked his over the head playfully.

“start drooling, won’t you?” she thought she could make out, as the other boy rolled his eyes, sitting himself back in his chair.

“the unforgivable curses are three of the most powerful and sinister spells known to the wizarding world, as well as the strongest known dark spells in existence.” she finally sucked in a deep breath of air. “their usage is enough to send you to azkaban without parole.”

“correct!” the woman exclaimed, putting her hands together. “now,” she said, pointing to the first curse on the board, “we will start with the most horrible one; what is the “avada kedavra” curse?”

“instant death,” severus snape said, not looking at lily.

“you’d know best,” potter whispered loud enough to be heard, and snape sneered, “wouldn’t you, snape?”

before he got to open his mouth, the professor cleared her throat. “alright, that’s enough. yes, the killing curse is, as implied by its name, instant death. it is said to be painless, but no person can defend themselves from it or survive it. now, how about the cruciatus curse?”

“torture,” potter answered, leaning in his chair. “it can lead to insanity if the victim was subjected for too long, and the pain is so unbearable that the victims wish for pain or death instead of having to endure it.”

“very well, mister potter. and, to end this class with the lesson finished, can anyone tell me what the imperius curse implies?”

“control over another person’s actions,” black said, again, without raising his hand, looking positively bored.

“over their whole being,” lily hissed, raising her hand.

“over their whole being, if executed successfully,” he retorted, “because people with exceptional strength of will can resist it.”

“i highly doubt there are enough people in the world to be able to block an unforgivable curse, black,” lily rolled her eyes. “considering the fact they land you a sentence in azkaban without parole and, a lot of the times, without trial.”

“it happens often enough to mention,” he replied, crossing his legs. “because if it didn’t, it wouldn’t be mentioned.”

the bell rang, and their professor dismissed them, not before giving them half a meter of an essay to write, “and don’t make your handwriting bigger just to get off with less writing, i will know!”. lilt lingered around her desk, hoping that she would get to talk to black without looking desperate to do so.

however, he seemed to get the message, as he told his mates to “go on, i have something to do.” he stopped by her desk, and only then did she notice the hoop that pierced through his straight nose.

“can you really fight it off?” she asked, throwing her bag over her shoulder and making her way to the door, black following her suit.

“if you can block it, which requires sheer amounts of willforce and a strong character,” he said, putting his hand into his pocket. “it resembles occlumency, in a way. closing one's mind against legilimency. it’s mind-reading, to succinctly describe it,” he added, as an answer to her confused expression.

lily’s eyebrows raised. “because when you’re imperiused, the caster gets into your head, too.”

black nodded. “it’s one of the darker parts of magic, legilimency, if you ask me. being able to see into a person’s mind, whatever they’re thinking. their memories, their fears, everything else, and it requires a person who’s really talented at it, a good legilimens—”

“oi, mate!” potter shouted. “finish off your nerding about and come on, i’m starving!”

black barked a laugh. “i suppose that’s my cue to go. see you, evans.”

he picked up his pace to get to his mates, and lily watched him go away, her eyebrows furrowing. magic was such a dark, twisted thing, deep under the surface.

YIPPEE YALL I LOVE THEMMM

and now I have funky Lil character sheets going onnnn idk this is fun dude :3

[rip-marauders]

rip lily evans you would have loved eighties roller rinks

“Jegulus doesn’t make sense!”

It’s fan fiction, it’s not real. It won’t hurt you.

“Harry potter wouldn’t have existed without jilly!!1!”

He still can. It’s called co-parenting.

“Lily is not just a incubator/surrogate for your gay ship!1!’

We are not doing that. YOU ARE. YOU ARE MAKING HER ONLY THAT.

In all of the jegulus fics i had read, where harry would exist, he is still lily and James’s biological son. AND SHE LOVES HER SON, THAT DOES NOT CHANGE.

STOP MAKING LILY INTO ONLY HARRY’S MOTHER.

we give her aspirations to travel, or to become the best healer, or want other things TO BE MORE THAN JUST A MOTHER and you all throw a bitchfit that shes not playing house with James. With jegulus and whatever lily ship you perfer, harry ends up gaining so much family and being so loved by multiple people compared to the sad canon that exists.

Just admit you hate the gay ship and move fucking on and go read your own fics.

Real quick

Our beloved Lily

[padfootastic]

please say more about jilypad + diverging parenting styles... perhaps even a possible scenario >:) i imagine harry has very cunning tactics for using this to his advantage

helloooooo <3 thank u for this ask bc i love talking about these three and harry. i went looking thru the archives to find this post; my first foray into this side, and really, i’ve never looked back after that.

so i’ve talked ab this a bit before but i fully think that james was a very overprotective ‘mother hen’ type parent. i tend to read his behaviour in lily’s bday letter to sirius as being scared of his child on a broomstick and i fully, fully think he’ll never be able to let go of that as harry grows up. he’ll be anxious and suspicious and paranoid, and his first instant will always be to wrap harry up in cotton wool and hide him away. (i low-key connect this to his childhood as well; going from being spoiled and sheltered to dropped in the middle of a war, black & white thinking, living in extremes etc etc makes it v hard for him to be Normal about his child. as he shouldn’t be, really, but yeah) that’s why he thrives during the initial years; he never minds the hard parts of being a new parent, loves it in fact, and it makes it better that he can keep harry close to him at all times w/o coming off as a helicopter parent (not that the notion bothers him ofc).

it’s good, then, that he has two partners to even the scales, no? i think lily was the most…balanced out of the three. she had a relatively normal childhood, grew up in a working class family/neighbourhood and had to deal w adversity from a young age so she’s developed a nice, thick skin. she also has a sibling with whom she has a v rocky relationship so she knows that kids are, ykno, a bit unhinged. and a little bit of hardship is not a problem. i hc her as needing time to get used to parenthood, unlike james who stepped into it natural as breathing, or even sirius who loved harry on much on first sight that it made up for everything else. ofc lily loved her son, but it didn’t come w the same blinding intensity of her partners and made her feel really shitty in the beginning. but, i think she’d shine during his teen years actually, because she’s not overbearing or intense and becomes the quiet, calm strength that a hormonal, spotty teen boy would probably need.

and sirius <3 our poor baby falls in love with harry, perhaps even more quickly than james, with such startling speed that it shakes his entire foundation. he doesn’t regret it but he’s constantly discombobulated. i also imagine that…it takes him longer to settle into the role of parent, esp bc he’s not biologically one ykno? not like it matters to anyone, ofc, but it takes him a long time to truly accept his authority and place, to believe that he has just as much right as j&l to be there, to parent harry. this has the consequence of him always being more indulgent than the other two; after all, he considered himself a godfather before a parent and a lot of that thinking stayed. he lets harry get away with stuff the others might not (and the little mf figures this out later); some of it also comes from sirius seeing so much shit, and facing so much shit himself, that he rationalises a lot of stuff as ‘well, this isn’t the worst it can be, so what’s the harm’ (because his life has been such a roller coaster that he’s forgotten that not everyone’s like that, if that makes sense?)

its obviously not this clear cut but i imagine harry looks at it like this: if he needs unconditional love, he goes to james; rationality and logic, lily; acceptance and calm, sirius. when someone has to be beat up for hurting harry, james steps in. if he needs help burying a body, it’s sirius. dealing with some asshole boss/teacher/classmate’s mother who’s making harry’s life hell? lily. i can keep going but,,,u get the idea, right? this makes sense, i hope lol

i actually think harry’s first birthday is a great example. sirius pushes the boundaries by gifting lil harry a broom; james loses his mind running after him; lily places an industrial sticking charm on harry’s butt, leans back with a glass of wine, and enjoys the show. even as he grows up, lily and james act as the disciplinarian, and sirius is the emotional outlet. all of them fill in each other’s cracks so well, and it’s only when harry grows up that he realises how effortlessly they worked off each other to parent him.

also oh man o man. harry being cunning is,,,,,see, i’ve not considered it this far but it makes perfect sense. i think canon harry actually had so much manipulative energy and it’s often overlooked for his goofier traits but! this is the same dude who used his dead parents to trick slughorn into revealing sensitive info! imagine if that could be channelled into his jilypad interactions 😈

it’s like, it takes him a bit, because his three parents r so smooth, but once he realises that all of them have certain weak spots, he does NOT hesitate to exploit them. (it has the unintended consequence of truly strengthening the jilypad relationship into an unbreakable one bc one thing their kid taught them is to have ironclad communication going at all times so nothing they’ve said, or not said, is used against them). so like, he knows if he wants to sneak out to a party, it has to be sirius and in a specific way—‘i’ll be totally safe, papa, plus i really wanna see what it’s like and idk when it’ll get a chance to again’. if he widens his eyes to pitiful levels, pouts a little, and blinks faster than usual, then james is putty in his arms as long as he’s separated from the other two. divide and conquer becomes the main tool in harry’s arsenal, actually. lily’s the toughest nut to crack, purely bc she doesn’t run on emotions or irreverence, but harry soon learns that if he comes up with a solid, logical case that proves his argument has unbiased merit then he has a good chance of getting her to say yes. (this is good, bc u can arrange words in the correct order, but u can’t always control emotions)

so overall yeah, you’d think one kid + 3 parents would be an easy bet, but harry keeps them on their toes all the fkn time.
