For the character ask game: Lily + question #6? 🙏
Thank you @heartofspells 🥰🥰🥰!
6. What's something you have in common with this character?
Well… I met my future husband when I was still a teenager and initially thought he was a snobby, vain git (wearing his silly designer clothes like an idiot, strutting around volunteering to be the model for our surface anatomy tutorials classes 🤦♀️😏 etc) albeit a good looking one. I was not smitten at all. Nope. And there was no flirting disguised as banter. Never.
AnYwAy… fast forward a year - realised that all the above was bravado (boys…), he wasn’t a vain git, he was actually very decent and we were friends. Just friends. Ahem.
Friends who sit beside each other to study in the library.
Friends who were a bit competitive academically (except after he ‘tutored’ me in physics I ended up doing better than him in the exams 🤣🤣🤣 and he wasn’t impressed Lolol)
Friends who cycle home together and who occasionally get a cross-bar home on said bike…
friends whose friends eyeroll like mad at us both and actually ran off and left us alone in a friend’s house hoping we’d “hurry up and bloody well snog, you idiots”… it didn’t work that time but…
Friends who got together a year later and basically have been together since and now married etc etc
So - very Jily coded 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 (although personality wise my husband is more Remus than James!)
I also go mad if anyone tries to be mean to my friends, including here <3333
