you know in the books when Remus and Sirius tell Harry that James couldn’t help but make a fool of himself when Lily was around I don’t think they meant asking her out every time he saw her or being like some massive jerk. I think they meant he was a huge dork who dropped his books and who was tongue tied around her and it was nerdy and silly and innocent. I refuse to believe he was some arrogant huge bully until seventh year because he wanted to date her, we only see ONE scene of interaction between them and he was angry and she was mad and they were 15 bye. down with this horrible notion of a douche James, give me more of dorky nerdy wild hair four eyed James

soulmate au where instead of your soulmates first words to you written on your skin it’s their last words you ever hear them say so you don’t know who your soulmate is until you lose them

“Lily take Harry and go! It’s him! Go! Run!
“I’ll hold him off!”

A wave of ice surged through Lily’s chest before she even stopped to comprehend what James was saying. For a moment as she fled up the stairs, she wasn’t thinking of Voldemort or her son’s safety. James’s words rang in her head as she fled, the words that had been inscribed on her skin since before she knew how to read them.

And there was fear, of course, for herself and for Harry, but they also had a second of hope however impossible. James was the one whose last words she had just heard. James was the one past saving.

She heard his body hit the floor.

Lily pushed everything in the room against the door, frantic and nearly hysterical, but pushing through her grief to protect her son.

Still the tears came and seconds before Voldemort blasted aside her makeshift barricade, she couldn’t help but think that all those times James Potter had teasingly declared himself her soulmate, he had been right.

Arrogant, selfless, brilliant arse that he was, he was right. 

And he was gone.

DO YOU GET THE IMPLICATIONS OF THAT

HE KNEW FIRST

SHE SAID THE LAST WORDS HE WOULD HEAR HER SAY AND HE REALIZED HE WASNT GOING TO HEAR HER SAY ANYTHING ELSE, THAT ONE OF THEM WAS GOING TO DIE HERE

AND HE MADE A CHOICE

why do people gotta do this to my post??

lizardcookie:

okay but imagine a sixth year lily evans doing research for her muggle studies class (”i want to know what hogwarts is teaching about my people” is what she tells the confused) and she comes across the name henry potter, who championed muggle rights during a muggle world war and she pauses at the name and knows that it can only mean one thing, but she asks him anyway

and james is just like “yeah he’s my grandfather. rad, isn’t it? i want to be just like him” and he smiles and asks what else she found about about henry and the whole time lily is like “shit shit shit SHIT hes perfect”

gallifreystands:

the only thing snape and james have in common is that they would both sacrifice james in order to save lily

Rules: Choose any five of your OTPs (from w/e fandoms you like) without looking at the questions, answer the corresponding qs and tag some people to do it.

I was tagged by dementore, thanks so much!

I tag halfbloodriddle scorpiusmqlfoy hufflepunkx prongsxdoe talkdrarrytome if you guys want to do it and haven’t already :)

My OTPs are: 1) Romione 2) Hinny 3) Jily 4) Stydia 5) Klaroline

Do you remember the episode/scene/chapter that you started shipping 5?
Er…no. I think it came on gradually tbh.

Have you ever read fanfic about 2?
Yes, but it was about 2 years that I did haha.

Has 4 ever been your background or tumblr icon? No.

If 3 were to suddenly break up, what would your reaction be?
If Jily broke up?!?! I can’t even imagine that?!?! My entire life would be a lie. I would scream and cry and go into denial. Not happening.

Why is 1 so important?
They build their relationship over seven years and even though their personalities clash they still love each other more deeply than any other ship I know. I love how someone finally chose Ron, and it was Hermione. Their relationship is so imperfectly perfect but it’s not stereotypical. I love it.

Is 4 a funny or serious ship?
Pretty serious but they’re not really canon

Out of all the ships, which have the most chemistry?
On screen? Romione or Klaroline. I can’t answer for their actual relationship chemistry 😂

Out of all the ships, who has the strongest bond?
Romione definitely since they were best friends for so far and been through so many fights and wars and trauma together.

How many times have you read/watched 2′s fandom?
Lmao like a billion times by now

Which ship lasted the longest?
The first four are all still going strong.

How many times. if ever, has 5 broken up?
They were never officially an item but they fought like 24/7

If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, who would make it out alive?
Romione, Hinny and Jily would all be badass and use magic so they’d be fine, Stydia usually find a way to survive (Scott was saying in 5x06) and Lydia might be immune to zombie shit? Stiles would be in danger though, and Klaus would 100% survive and Caroline probably would too because she’s a vampire and the zombies wouldn’t harm her because she’s undead like them.

Are 5 still together?
No :’(

Is 1 canon?
YES

If all 5 ships were put in the Hunger Games, who would win?
Oh jeez 😂 Well that’s a question of vampires against wizards. Although, the first three would probably all die for each other while Klaroline would just save themselves and attack others so Klaroline would probably win

Have you ever spent a hours a day going through 3′s Tumblr tags?
Of course I have, you can’t get enough of Jily headcanons :)

If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you you you had to break up one of the ships forever, which one would it be?
Klaroline because they already are. *sighs and cries*

scorpiusmqlfoy:

imagine james and lily beyond the veil

watching their precious little harry grow up, unloved and unwanted

hearts breaking as dudley got his every selfish desire while harry was abused and abandoned

watching helplessly as uncle vernon dragged their names through the mud, terrified their wonderful miraculous child would think they were drunks and good for nothings who threw away their lives, their friends, their family

crying as their young son faced innumerable dangers, targeted by the foe they had fought as teenagers in the hopes that their son wouldn’t

crying again because even without them their son was capable of bravery and love and forgiveness and fighting for what he believed in

every inch the potters’ son

lily evans going home after fifth year and the “mudblood” incident and chucking all her quills away, and showing back up at school in september with a load of pens - pens from the pot on her windowsill; pens she’d found lying around in the kitchen; pens she’d nicked from petunia - because something in her wanted to act as a constant reminder to snape that she was a mudblood. and in any case, she’d never quite managed to get used to quills.

#james being riduculously curious about these featherless quills #and finally swallowing his pride to ask her #what the hell they are #lily finding it amusing that he #the great james potter #has no idea what a muggle pen is #and james finally realising he doesn’t have to be a dick #to get her attention #sirius teasing him for it later but also secretly curious #about these pens #both of them going to remus #who is in muggle studies #to learn more about the muggle world

i just needed these tags on my blog

#and later: the nightmare that is james potter with a click pen
