Lily Evans is the kind of person who remembers every little thing about you, and she makes sure you know it.
she’s the type to notice your favorite snack and always has it stashed somewhere in her bag, “just in case you need it.” James found that out the first time she nonchalantly tossed him a chocolate frog during a late study session. he’s been in love ever since.
Lily gives the most thoughtful, personal gifts that aren’t just nice but downright uncanny in how well they suit you. she’ll find the perfect charm bracelet for Marlene, with charms representing every silly thing they’ve done together, or a new set of muggle watercolor pencils for Remus because she caught him doodling flowers on the corner of his parchment.
she knows your quirks. Sirius can’t walk past her without her smirking and saying, “hair’s a little off today, Black, everything alright?” because she knows he only fusses with it when something’s on his mind.
Lily knows everyone’s coffee order by heart and will show up with their favorite when it’s “one of those days.” she’ll grab an extra-large cup of tea for Remus during exams and sneak a sprinkle of sugar in for James just to mess with him. and everyone knows that when you’re going through it, she’s the one who will sit up with you late, listening without judgment, her hand on yours, and say, “right. we’ll get through this.”
she’s fierce, loyal, and funny in ways that stick. a bit of her seems to stay with everyone she meets, and you can bet if she cares about you, you’ll know it. because with Lily Evans, love is in the details.
