remember that one time when voldemort was caught off guard by a child and accidentally killed himself with the wand and then james and lily lived and they were the happiest of couples and raised harry in a loving manner and he knew what it was like to be family and to have his uncle sirius and remus  come over every weekend and give him extra lollies

General Headcanons

 ugh in honor of October 31st, ;(((

Lily was kinda a messy person

she wasn’t a slob or anything, but she was definitely a bit all over the place

her mind went a million miles a minute which means she talks really really fast

And she switches topics and jumps all over the place and rushes off because we all know she totally started the Potions Club and was involved in Charms club and really was eager to try and learn more about this world that seemingly everyone else had grown up. 

and so sometimes she gets flustered, and may leave things behind, like textbooks and quills and even notes

It’s a real problem, there’s a lily drop off slot in their dorm door if anyone finds her things

but James absolutely adores it

even though he often finds himself contributing to the Lily pile, especially after they start hanging out more

except he is a total neatfreak and begins organizing her things 

and omg THEY TOTALLY BALANCE EACH OTHER OUT PERFECTLY

like how lily gives james new ideas for quidditch ploys because her ramblings about team improvements prove incredibly useful

and how her notes fuel his study guides and his study guides are organized and much easier for the both of them to study

she comes up with crazy plans for their pranks and he comes up with the logical ways to execute the plan

It’s crazy because in the marauders he totally comes up with the crazy plans, but he likes being the logical one,

they both go back and forth being the logical one and the dreamer and it’s a beautiful cycle 

Once they start dating they are practically unstoppable

their powers combined, literally the best team

especially in the order, at first Moody was worried about putting them on the same team, but soon he saw it was the best option

They looked out for each other, filled in each other’s gaps and weaknesses 

they balanced each other out, her potions and his transfiguration, her charms and his defense, 

and she loved to wake harry up in the morning, cooing until the green eyes blinked up at her, and bouncing him until he is awake and excited for breakfast

and he loved putting him to bed, and telling him stories of the greatest pranks from Hogwarts and his best times with Lily (many of these stories fit both categories)

and their fights were often evenly matched, her wit against his charm

ugh they could’ve been so great help me

Her Smile

    When people asked, what was the first thing you noticed about her? He wouldn't even have to think.

 It went way back to first year, before anyone had even boarded the train yet. Euphemia Potter was known for her punctuality, meaning that the three of them were an hour early.

"Look Mont, it's much better we are early than late! We just missed floo traffic, that's all. Besides, now James gets to pick his compartment, . . when the train gets here."

James rolled his eyes and stopped listening to his parents little squabble. The train platform was very, very, empty. There was a janitor, lazily directing brooms across the floor and vanishing the trash from trash cans. A couple owls were perched on the overhead beams. It was boring.

Very slowly, a couple other early birds began to make their way to the platform, and about 15 minutes later the train rumbled it's way into the station. The platform was still relatively empty and families were quietly whispering things like "listen to your professors" and "Don't forget to owl us, once a week y'hear?".

So when a certain young witch arrived through the wall, her amazement echoed throughout the platform.

"NO WAY! THIS IS UNREAL!" she squealed as she panned around the station, staring at the wall she had just passed through. She seemed to notice she was loud, as she flushed but she couldn't help herself from giggling a bit, amazed at her portal to the new world. She slowly spun in a circle, staring at the enchanted ceiling and when she faced him, he knew that was the prettiest thing he had ever seen.

It was amazing, her smile practically lit up the whole platform. It was wide and slightly crooked and her eyes were bright and crinkled and she looked like a complete dork but it was beautiful.

 It was that damn smile, the smile that eventually would make his heart stutter a bit, the same smile that would make him want to actually study in the library with her, and the smile he desperately wanted to see which made him pull all kinds of ridiculous things in class, just to see her lips quirk up and her teeth shine through.

It was the very first thing he noticed about her it was the very first thing he fell in love with.

Could you do a Titanic Jily au? Idk if you ship blackinnon and meadowpin, but if you do for any of them, then can you include them? If possible😊

I would just like to point out that I have never actually seen the titanic, so I hope this turned out okay! I will also do this in parts 

Part 1

The water was dark. Darker than she had ever seen before, and her heart rate rocketed as the watched the waves crashing against the boat. She was leaning on the railing. Just a jump, a small little jump, and it could be over. During the day, the waves had seemed so inviting, so clear and wonderful. But the sea had somehow changed and she couldn’t bear to do it. 

Sighing, she turned away from the railing, wondering why she couldn’t just jump. Anything would be better than married to that creep, Sev. 

She should take that back, he was always nice to her as kids. In fact, they used to be the best of friends, inseparable to the point where she couldn’t imagine a future without him. But then they grew up and he left his family, doing business with a shady man in Philadelphia and and soon he became quite rich, quite the man of society. 

Except she knew where the money came from, and it caused quite a few fits, until one day he snapped. “You dumb bitch, you couldn’t get a job if you tried, at least I’m successful” he had sneered and at once she felt all their friendship melt away, like ice on a hot summer’s day. 

He had apologized, but she knew where he got his money from, and the fact that her father looked down upon her furthering her education meant that she must soon be married to take care of her parents. 

Unfortunately, her father soon later got sick and Snape’s proposal was necessary to foot the bills, no one would hire a girl, much less an uneducated one. 

So here she was, leaning against the railing of a boat where Severus was only a few hallways away, wishing she could just pitch herself off the edge. 

And her wish almost came true. Apparently the boat had hit a larger wave, throwing her right off the railing and almost over the edge… if someones arm’s hadn’t caught her. Well damn. 

“Woah, you have to know it isn’t safe to be here right now, especially leaning against the railing! There’s been reports of some nasty winds, and I won’t always be able to catch you,” a male voice said as two strong arms held her and gently pulled her away from the rails. 

Lily somehow took this the wrong way. Maybe it was how messy his hair was that made her want to fix it, or the way he smirked down at her, pushing his glasses up her nose, but she was annoyed. 

“Excuse you, but I wasn’t asking to be saved” she said coldly, her green eyes piercingly bright.

His smile faltered. “Surely you don’t mean that miss, those clothes don’t quite look appropriate for swimming,” he said uneasily as he stared at her dress, complete with a corset and at least 4 layers of skirt. 

“Swimming wasn’t exactly in the plan either” she muttered as she leaned against the wall, staring out into the endless water. 

“You can’t mean that! A girl as young and fair as you should be out there living her life, having fun!” he exclaimed, and his hand was in his hair running through it as he had never met a girl so young and so conflicted. 

She seemed to snap out of whatever daze had held her captive, and composed herself. “I do apologize, I suppose I’ve been quite rude, especially to my rescuer. Thank you. I’m Lily, Lily Evans.”

He stared at her hand for a moment before shaking. “James Potter.”

Alright, that’s all for now. I think I should probably watch the movie before I continue! Hope this was okay!
