𝗹𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 of her mother forward, except as much as ginny loved her mother, she knew the fuss molly weasley would make when she inevitably find the injury from a bludger, where as lily would be quick to fix the issue. “ i know, i know i just didn’t mean to frighten you ! ” the youngest weasley grinned. “ define alright, i made it here ? ” but nimble fingers were already moving, lifting the side of her jersey ⸻ one that she couldn’t bring herself to fully change out of. “ uh, this ? not so much. ” pale skin of her torso, around the lowest rung of her ribcage, now battered and bruised. “ bludger. ”
" oh dear, " the older witch observed the bruise with assessing eyes before she motioned for the younger to follow her into her office. " this is the reason why i am relieved neither neville or harry decided to take up professional careers in quidditch. i do not think my heart could take it. " her words were serious but soft as she motioned for ginny to lie on the examination table. " is that the extent of your injuries ? did it impact only once or multiple times ? " it was second nature for lily to fall into healer mode.
❝ oh . well , good . that's a relief . ❞ she remarks with a lifted sigh , eyes watching as the other carefully moved about the room . ❝ some dish i found in a magazine . it had chicken , rice , and some vegetables in it . looked like a stew or soup . ❞ she shook her head , shaking off the memory of the way the meat looked after she cut her hand . ❝ i made arthur stop and get something on the way home . i came here straight away . ❞
" i am certain that you will be able to finish it and have a nice dinner with arthur, " she reassured the older witch with a soft smile. " i have never been the greatest cook myself. my talents do not lie in the culinary arts. " the red head witch continued speaking as she made quick work on the wound. once finished, she cleaned up, disposing of various items in the biohazard bin, " and you are now as good as new. "
❝ just trying to be helpful . ❞ she remarks , pulling on the strap of her bag awkwardly . mel watched the other have really no expression and causing her to regret stopping to have a chat . ❝ i heard you are working at the ministry , that must be a joy . ❞ the reek of sarcasm dripped off the femme as she spoke . ❝ me ? i've been doing alright myself . just busy with quidditch and all that . ❞
hermione let out a soft non-committal hum underneath her breath. " i am quite enjoying it actually. if you want to change something, it is always smart to start from the inside. " there were many changes the witch wished and planned to implement once she gained more traction within the department. she would be patient. " how is your season going ? " she tried to seem interest but the curly haired witch had never truly gotten into the spirit of the game, " harry tries to make me watch games with him. "
𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀 filling with such a rosy hue it would put many to shame. and only two people in the world could pull a reaction such as this from him, and lily potter, his mother was one of them. without hesitation and in the middle of flourish and blotts, harry wrapped himself around the woman despite easily towering over her. “ ma. ” in lieu of a greeting as he grinned boyishly, as if she’d forgive him for the suggestion. “ i’ve been good, good. ” moving out hadn’t been as hard as he’d expected really, given the fact that he only really lived at home for a small portion of the year since he was eleven. “ how are you ? how’s dad ? ”
it brought a slight sense of satisfaction to the elder witch as she observed the way her son's cheeks began to flame at her slight scolding. despite the fact that he now towered over her, lily was glad to see that she still had some effect on him. as his arms wrapped around her, her own arms easily wrapped around harry, giving him a warm hug in return, " have you grown again ? " her tone was teasing but her words were serious as she pulled away, " your father and i are well, though truthfully, i am not certain of his current whereabouts however i am not concerned. you know your father, he will eventually resurface, " lily shook her head slightly out of both fondness and exasperation. " how is living with hermione going ? have you both been eating and sleeping enough. "
laugh leaves lips gently at her words , hands going up in defense . ❝ okay , okay . just making sure , granger . ❞ she speaks softly before eyes roll to the left . ❝ t'was just trying to make conversation , that's all . how've you been , 'mione ? been a while , eh ? ❞
" i appreciate the concern, robins. " the lack of facial reaction left her unclear as whether hermione was being sincere or sarcastic. truthfully, she probably did not even know herself. however, the witch cringed at the nickname. she did never been a fan of nicknames especially when it came to her own name. " i can only assume that we have both been busy with our various pursuits. i've been well, thank you. yourself ? "
the femme nods at the other , following behind the fellow redhead into her office , before showing lily her hand , wincing a bit at the pain of the cut . ❝ would you believe that i was trying to cook for arthur ? he was coming home earlier than normal and i hadn't made anything yet . i grabbed the knife and was trying to cut the chicken when it sliced open my hand instead . ❞ molly laughed softly at herself , mostly for being so dumb .
silently and with eagle eyes, the younger witch inspected the wound, ensuring that her touch was gentle as she moved molly's hand various angles. " you will be relieved to know that you won't lose your hand, " her tone held subtle notes of teasing as lily moved around her office, preparing to stitch the wound. sanitising, disinfecting the materials, putting on a pair of sterile gloves. " considering that i have ate your food before, arthur is one lucky wizard. what were you planning on cooking ? " one of the best ways to distract a patient was to distract them with conversation.
𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹𝘆, 𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿 to evans medical, after all, with her chosen career, bludgers were nasty buggers. and todays injury was a bit of a nasty one that she really didn’t feel like explaining to her own mother, perhaps to avoid the nagging. “ sorry, mama potter. ” the girl grins, though perhaps a little strained. “ i ⸻ uh, quidditch practise rough up ? ”
" ginny, are you alright ? " concern coloured her words as she took a few steps closer to the youngest weasley child, checking over her with attentive eyes. " you never have to apologise for coming to see me for any ailments or injuries. you know i am always happy to make time for you or your siblings. " lily reassured ginny with a warm and kind smile. she had known the young witch since she was essentially born and had always felt maternal towards her and her siblings.
eyes didn't surprise her when she saw granger sitting with yet another book on such a gorgeous day , hiding away in a dark corner . this is how you usually found the other ; curled up in some darkened space with a stack of books with no interest in the outside world . smirking to herself , mel made her way over , hands in the pockets of her jacket . she spoke up again when the femme didn't hear her the first time . ❝ do you ever get out in the sun , granger ? or are you destined to be a lover of the shadows for your whole life ? ❞
" since you are curious, i will be relieved to know that i do ensure that i receive my daily dose of vitamin d, " though, she would never admit that most of the dose came through her multivitamins that she took daily. " did you wish to speak about something or did you simply come over to make a joke ? " hermione posed the question with a simple raise of one of her eyebrows.
of course , molly could use magic to heal herself but that would take away the human element of it all . besides , there was always one doctor she could turn to when things went sour : lily potter . having trying to be quick about making dinner for arthur , the female had cut her hand with a knife and the cut was pretty deep . she wrapped it in a cloth and zapped herself to the clinic , standing in the reception area to see lily sweeping away in the other room . ❝ sorry , dear . i cut my hand pretty deep and i think i need stitches . can you help ? ❞
" molly, you never have to apologise. shall we have a quick look at what we are looking at ? " the smile on lily's face was one of her friendliness as she motioned for the older witch to follow her into her office. acting on pure instinct, she begun disinfecting her hands before turning her attention to the other. " a kitchen injury ? "
it was unsurprising to witness hermione out in a public area and find her with her nose buried in the latest book she had loaned from a muggle library near her apartment. so it came to no surprise to find her in that exact position. however the moment the curly haired witch noticed a shadow out of the corner of her eye, a barely audible sigh left her lips as her attention turned to the other, disappointment of removing her attention from the book visible, " pardon me but were you speaking to me ? "
despite the fact that lily knew numerous spells that were specifically made for cleaning, sweeping the floor herself always reminded her of her childhood, helping around the house . it reminded her of a time long past. humming gently underneath her breath, she continued the repetitive motion of back and forth with the broom. it wasn't until she moved closer towards the door that she realised someone was occupying the once empty reception. " merlin ! " the curse escaped her lips as she placed a hand over her chest, " i did not hear you come in, " her confession came easily as a small smile graced her lips, " was there something i could help you with ? "

" harry james potter, did you just tell the woman who gave birth to you to wear a bell ? " a challenging but teasing gleam shone in her eyes. after all, it was lily's right as his mother to, at least, scare him a little bit every so often. despite her words, she opened her arms for the young male to give her a hug in greeting. " how have you been, my love ? "

the familiar but unexpected voice filled the once silent apartment as the curly haired witch jostled out of her train of thought. it took her a few moments for hermione to realise who the voice belonged to and what time it was. " kitchen, " her voice called out into the rest of the apartment. seated at the kitchen island, she begun to close her textbooks and notebooks. readying herself for the appearance of one of her best friends. she quickly removed the extra pen from her makeshift bun, " i didn't even realise the time. how was your day ?

she was given a nice and unusual name so that her parents could show how educated they were.
at the age of eleven, she discovered that she was a witch, something that her parents easily accepted.
the moment she was accepted to hogwarts, she made her mission to learn and read as much as she could, mastering a few spells and becoming a well of knowledge.
she was sorted in gryffindor and to the confusion of a lot of her pupils who thought she was better suited in ravenclaw. however, her bravery in dire situations proved that she is a gryffindor through and through.
hermione spent her adolescent years in the company of her two best friends, harry and ron. though, she had her disagreements and squabbling with them, she valued their friendship more than anything.

lily was born as the youngest daughter of two to muggle parents.
from a young age, one of her best friends was her eldest sister, petunia. however, this relationship would be permanently damaged once the truth of lily's nature was revealed to the evans family.
she became friends with severus snape who lived not far from her. he was the one who told her that she was a witch. he was the one who taught her all about hogwarts and the wizarding world. the more she learnt about it, the more excited she became.
at the age of eleven, lily departed for hogwarts where she was sorted into gryffindor.
she was quite intelligent and found herself especially skilled at potions, where she was invited into slughorn's club.
lily spent her schooling years taking her studies seriously and taking every moment she could to either learn something new or fine tune her skills.
during her final year at hogwarts, she finally agreed to go out with james potter, someone she found herself often annoyed with and at odds with.
after graduating hogwarts, she had attempted to heal her relationship with petunia but the gap between them was one petunia refused to cross.
shortly after and during the first wizarding war, a war that lily found herself being an active participant in, she fell pregnant with harry. she was both excited and terrified about bringing him into the middle of the conflict but she longed to be a mother.
with everything that had happened with the war and the longbottoms, lily took in neville and raised him like her own but made sure he never forgot about alice and frank.
following her experience during the first wizarding war, lily decided to become a healer / muggle doctor. she made the decision to open her own clinic, accepting both magical and non-magical clients. owning her own clinic meant that she could still help others but be super present in harry and neville's childhood.
lily would do anything for the people she cares about, whether that means comforting them or tearing down the person verbally that hurt them. she has also been known to have a temper when ignited, something she doesn't show often but it is there under the surface.
