modern au where james and lily are old school email pen pals in the mid 2000s
starting off real formal like Hi, how are you? once their schools set them up as email-pals but once they get to know each other they talk less formally until theyāre basically communicating in a slang that is more inside jokes than actual abbreviationsĀ
james pissing lily off at the beginning because heās just so goddamn annoying and asks the most ridiculous questions and uses too many emoticons and has too many exclamation marks at the end of every single sentence!!!!!!!!!!! and you can bet he changes the font 6 times in an email and uses different font colors and highlight colors and lily gets a headache just from reading them.
them going through their Random XD ^_^ phases and lowkey having an unspoken competition to never repeat a smiley face: once the normal ones, XD and 8D and ^-^ and :3 are used up, they go to the more unique ones, (%_^_%) until they have to ask each otherā¦ right what the fuck kinda emotion were you trynna express in that
them talking on msn messenger and james nudging lily constantly and she always threatens to log off but she never does
lily changing her signature to FUCK YOU JAMES when he sends her eighteen memes in a row and writing an email to her teachers without realizing she still had the signature on.
one day her friend remus logs onto her computer and the emails are open and theyāve been talking for a few years now and lily comes back to see him reading through them all andĀ āwhat the fuck remus those were private!āĀ āhahaā¦ i bet they are ;)))āĀ āwhatās that supposed to mean?ā and remus just sighs and goes,Ā āitās obvious that youāre both madly in love!ā
sirius and peter knew about lily from the very start. they also knew james was Head over Heels from the beginning too. (ājames if you ruffle your hair while staring at that screen one more time i s2gāĀ āyou know she literally canāt? see you?? youāre emailing??āĀ āshut up peteā)
lily suddenly panicking bc does she like the idiot sheās been emailing for like three years? of course not.Ā
(does she love him??? maybeā¦)
lilyās mentioned remus a few times, and sirius and peter break onto jamesā computer and start talking to remus. they co conspire and eventually write up a fake chain mail that goes SEND TO YOUR CRUSH <3 AND YOU WILL FIND TRUE LOVE <3 IGNORE TO STAY A SPINSTER </3
and remus sends it to james from lilyās account and sirius and peter send it to lily from jamesā account
āyou like me???āĀ āYOU like me???āĀ āu HĀ āĀ āUmā and then both of them send yeah i guess i do at the same time
when they find out that neither of them had sent the damn chain email, they get revenge on sirius and peter and remus by sending them a creepy message. but thatā¦ is a story for another day B))
