             “ HEAR ME OUT — ”  mary begins, waving a hand as though the spoon in her grasp would underline her words. “i love the little gremlin you’ve got growing inside you there, which is why we gotta pick a great name for him. i’m talking epic, i-discovered-the-secret-to-life, indiana jones adventure worthy name. i mean, you’ve never heard of any legends named something dull like BRAD have you?” says the girl with a nickname as basic as mary. well, y’can’t win ‘em all. the witch returns to the mixing bowl in front of her, stirring the colorful cupcake icing a few more times before dipping a finger in the mixture. “tell me again what you and james are considering?” // @notafrcak

❝ we don't even know if it's a boy yet!! ❞ little outbursts of laughter sputtered from lily’s throat, arms resting on her waist as she playfully scolded her best friend. it was hard to keep a straight face when mary acted so passionately at the topic of the upcoming addition to the potter family, and lily was nothing short of glad the woman was almost as enthusiastic as herself. having mary to confide in during her pregnancy was something lily would forever be grateful for, such support being more than welcomed. ❝ besides, do you really think i’d let my child have an anything-but-awesome name?? ❞ the fake frown that accompanied her words only lasted a few seconds, easily fading as a smile made its way through, crinkling green eyes in a fashion that was characteristic of her whenever around mary. ❝ james and sirius simply insist on calling it elvendork, ❞ ‘it’s unisex!’ she could almost hear her husband and his best friend yell in her ears. ❝ but i suppose it’s safe to say that is not an option. i’ve come up with only a few names myself. daniel, after my dad. thomas, maybe oliver. oooh, how ‘bout han solo potter?! has a ring to it, huh?? ❞

             “fix your attitude, then come back.” she takes a sip of her drink, observing the other woman carefully, evaluating her. something about her seems familiar, but bellatrix can’t put her finger on it. which annoys her. she lets out a deep sigh and leans back in her chair, an arm hanging over its back and her legs widely spread out in front of her. “you a weasley?” she finally asks, saying the last word with distaste. “would explain a lot.”

though it felt wrong not to strike back with a... less than gentle remark, lily knew better than to pick a fight with bellatrix lestrange of all people over something as stupid as her blocking lily’s way to the restroom. this wasn’t the place, nor the time, and the redhead was painfully aware of it. the following words, however, managed to strike a chord, and it took all lily had not to snap at the woman again. the way her friend’s name seemed to leave a sour taste in bellatrix’s mouth caused her to scoff in disbelief, having to bite her tongue not to give the woman a piece of her mind. ❝ no, i am not. our hair’s hardly the same shade of red, anyway. now, would you be so kind as to move, please?? ❞

it was meant to be a simple enough mission. for weeks, the order had been unsuccessfully tracking down the origin of certain illegal potions and poisons that death eaters were using on both muggles and unsuspecting wizards, which resulted in a seemingly unconnected array of disappearances over the last few months. dumbledore, with the help of amelia bones, had been able to narrow down the possible areas of origin to an abandoned muggle inn (where a number of order members found themselves in, currently) or the pub five blocks down. when the finer details of their mission had been worked out, lily and dorcas were assigned partnership and left with the task of guarding the north wing of the building as another group searched the place. the plan had been going smoothly so far, both girls having succesfully taken down the death eaters who were supposed to be watching the entrance with barely a few scrapes on their bodies to tell the tale... until a loud crash came from further down the hall, where lily knew other groups were guarding the east wing. she didn’t have time to put much thought into it, as muffled screams and hexes and bright lights closely accompanied the sound. an ambush. fuck. wand at the ready, and heart racing by the second at the very thought of a fight, lily shared a knowing look with dorcas. ❝ dor, we should... ❞ she let her voice fade, debating whether or not she was about to suggest they leave their post to enter the battle she was certain had just broken out. lily wasn’t one to disobey direct orders during missions, especially if those had come from dumbledore himself, but she simply couldn’t stand the very thought of fellow members putting up a fight, possibly outnumbered, when lily herself was reasonably safe from danger.

 “ i–” he began to speak up again, repeating himself. though the look on her face caused him to take PAUSE. he wasn’t unfamiliar with the temper that the red-head could have and that had been without the addition of the pregnancy hormones. sirius black was prone to foolish choices, but he was hardly that idiotic. “ here just– “ he began as he grabbed one of the beans from one of the opened packages. “ let me help you eat those if you are only going to eat a FEW of them. “ he gave a small shrug of his shoulders and a friendly smile before adding, “ wouldn’t want to waste any of them. “ his nose crinkled as he nearly gagged after placing the bean into his mouth and chewing, “ blech liver. “ quickly turning, he spat the rest of the bean out into the trash bin and dramatically began to drink water straight from the faucet. turning the faucet off, he wiped his mouth dry as he glanced at her, “ ok.. maybe, you have the right idea in picking out the ones that you like. “

pleased — and slightly relieved — with his choice of words, lily moved aside to make room for sirius, picking at one of the packages as he helped himself to another other. she watched as he popped one of the beans into his mouth, his overreaction instantly managing to break the stern facade she had on; and by the time sirius is leaning over the sink, trying to wash off the taste of the bean, her heartfelt laugh is already echoing within the kitchen, loud and clear. it’s such a sirius thing to do lily can’t help the loving grin on her lips and god, maybe she had lost her mind after all. sirius black just spat into her trash bin and she was practically beaming because she missed these little moments when they could just be kids again. lily quickly did her best to recomposed herself, a smile still very much present despite feeling a bit sorry for sirius’ misfortune. she looked down at the beans she’d been setting aside, taking a few in her hand. ❝ i know it ruins all the fun of it... but here, you can have one of my butterbeer ones, ❞ she said, playfully nudging his side with her elbow as she offered him the beans. ❝ used a spell to pick them out so don’t worry about getting blech liver again. ❞

@notafrcak // buffy starters.

[notafrcak]

oh, she wanted to do more than just hit him, alright?? lily would’ve undoubtedly strangled james had they not been in public. she should’ve seen it coming, should’ve known this would be the outcome of james meeting her sister and future brother-in-law: frustration and tears. still, some small part of her hoped — wished — the night would go well, and maybe, just maybe, she would get a chance to be a part of petunia’s life again. only now did she realise how wrong she’d been. ❝ i knew this would happen. just when we started to get along... ❞ her voice cracks, choked with tears, and lily has to take a moment to take a deep breath. ❝ why— why did you have to go on about your bloody broom, james?? are you happy with yourself?? ❞ lily was well aware the night’s fallout wasn’t her boyfriend’s fault. of course not, james was merely being himself, just as she had told him to do. but right now, lily needed to blame anyone but herself for the complete disaster their meal had been.

“you know what I feel? bored.” it was more restlessness, honestly, but it all felt the same to her. she’d never been quite good at figuring out her emotions — there were good ones and ones she preferred to run from, that’s how it worked. “wanna have some proper fun?”

❝ right now?? ❞ her surprise at glenda’s suggestion is unmasked, eyebrows shooting up as an amused smile plays on her lips. lily wasn’t one to deny such tempting offers — however, work did come first. ❝ my break ends in five minutes. ❞

        “I’m gonna kill them all,” Arthur spits, in a rare fit of rage. He doesn’t get angry — it’s just not in his nature —- unless it has to do with kids. And today, it does. The pureblood elitists have threatened his family, and that’s something Arthur cannot accept. He’s ready to fight anyone who’ll try it with his bare hands. “My kids have nothing to do with this — how could someone threaten a kid? They’re just kids.” He’s rambling, probably not making sense, but his head is spinning in circles.

the sight of usually calm and recollected arthur filled with such wrath seemed almost wrong to lily. although she’s known the man for a few years now, she never would’ve imagined such behaviour coming from him, and it pained her to have to witness it. it seemed the war was indeed taking its toll on everybody’s minds, whittling away at their spirits, their souls, piece by piece. lily glanced down at the letter he was holding, a sympathetic look in her eyes as she reached forward to take his hand in hers. ❝ i know, ❞ she whispers, arthur’s words still ringing in her ears. her heart aches for him, because she understands. she understands what it’s like to have her child threatened by people who wanted to see her gone, and she knows it’s a feeling no parent should ever have to experience. ❝ but you can’t go after them just like that, arthur. if something were to happen to you, who’ll be there to protect them?? ❞
