currently working on:

once more to see you: a professor James, apprentice Lily au in the canon universe! both POVS, rated E for graphic smut.

Lily takes James’ class & asks for help with her research. James accepts. banter, tension, infidelity & age gap. ambitious & snarky but sweet under it all Lily. confident & caring but lost James.

somewhere on lsd: a modern Muggle jily in Chicago! Lily POV, rated M for smut & drugs.

Lily is a waitress, James is a PhD candidate who comes in for lunch one day. banter, emotionally unavailable but incredibly compassionate Lily, arrogant but very sweet James.

may we pls have a snippet of the next chapter, i miss it sooo much. hope you’re doing well with your studies!

this is from a while ago but i do have a very non-informative snippet:

“Can I ask you something, baby?” Lily covered her mouth, full of food, to answer. “Yeah. Duh.”

I’m visiting Edinburgh which prompted a reread of OMTSY. So good. Love to imagine there’s a magical Edinburgh somewhere out there.

that is so fun, i hope omtsy gives real edinburgh vibes bc i've never been there! never even been to scotland. i believe i tried to use real locations a few times but i'm not sure how consistent i've been

omg this last update might have been my fav so far!!! it perfectly showcases the shift that's been building up in their relationship. they seem more relaxed with the secrecy of it all, more daring in their sexual dynamic, plus lily's musings towards the end made it look like she's catching onto the fact that james might choose her if it ever came down to it. she seems so much more secure in his feelings now and quite frankly she deserves it :)) sorry florence!

hi!! thank you!!! they mostly just got to flirt this chapter and they deserve it. a bit of being a couple just having fun. being themselves :) i'm excited for lily to be a bit freer when she's with james

once more to see you, a canon-setting university professor james & grad student lily au

rated E, jily, side pairings, infidelity, secret relationship, age gap, they do fall in love! they are lovers, D/s & kink, angst & romance, lily & james povs

Lily is a second-year apprentice with Horace Slughorn at The Universitas Magistrorum of Hogwarts studying untested applications of Transfiguration to Potions. James is the best Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts, so she begins to attend his classes, and his office hours—all of them. James has a wife and two children and Lily has a boyfriend. They both have responsibilities, their work, their family, their morals. But they have a connection: intellectual, physical, emotional. And they fuck nasty about it!

chapter 17 posted today

Lily waited a beat. He was not smiling, hardly warm at all. No fun. She handed him the parchment.

“Here.”

He took it with no thanks and leaned against the lab bench, not yet set up for brewing. Lily crossed her arms. Horace was no longer at the bench, but a few down, looking for more cauldrons, so she took the chance to say, “Someone’s moody today.”

James put the parchment down.

“I can’t see why. You’re going to be published.”

“I didn’t mean me. Besides, it’s not certain yet.

congrats on graduating!! snippet time if you feel like it?

thank you!!!

here is a snippet that was originally in chapter 17 (which i published last night) but got pushed... probably won't be in chapter 18 either......... lmao

“You should stay away from him.”  “Jesus, Bertram, it’s not a big deal. My research is the most important thing; James gets that.”  “He gets that because he’s—he basically bragged about getting you last week, Lily.”

hi! I really love all your fics, I've just binged all of them

do you have any other jily fics recs??

hi!! thank you, i'm so glad you like them :0

i have a tag for fic recs. i don't read a lot of fic, tbh, and i think many of my recs are very different from what i write.

the most recent fics i've read and rly enjoyed are @gigglesandfreckles-hp's one more time now, with feelings and @seriousbrat's what about the two of us? tho i haven't finished either yet... maybe one day. it's funny bc both involve jily having a bit of an on/off relationship, to varying extents, and it hurts my heart when they aren't together
