Before Lily Potter, there was Lily Evans. Before a martyr of the Light, there was a little girl that had to find her place in a world at war about her right to live. Lily Evans wasn't just a prologue or side note of other people's lives. She was the protagonist of her own story. This is Lily's story, told in small moments and oneshots.

A story about the marauders starting with their first year at Hogwarts and ending with their deaths. This story will be mostly canon compliant.

"I HATE you, James Potter!" She snatched the ruined photo from James' grasp, and for a split of a moment, she nearly hit him.

What he had wanted to say was 'I love you,' but she was gone.

Watson is in trouble, and it's Holmes who comes to his aid -- but Lestrade never expected to see Holmes actually feeling something. Rated T for violence.
