Nothing's fair in love and war anymore. xx The sixth and seventh years. JPLE, MMSB, RLSB

He asked her to Hogsmeade one hundred and thirty seven times. Then he stopped. And now Lily Evans has to battle her own fat mouth and mad head and the probability that number one hundred and thirty eight's going to have to be on her if she wants James Potter to ever smile her way again. Oh dear.

A medley of unconnected drabbles focusing on James and Lily.

Before Harry, before Godric's Hollow, before the Dark Lord was defied three times... Lily Evans and James Potter discovered that neither of them were what the other had expected, and embarked on a relationship that would change the world as they knew it.

The odds were stacked against him: a child from a blended home with no friends, no social skills to speak of, and a terrible secret. Yet slowly Remus Lupin began to discover there was a place for him in the world, if he could find the courage to claim it.

Lonely and outcast by his classmates, Remus wishes on a moonshadow for a friend who understands him. To his amazement his wish is answered not once, but three times, by his former enemies, the Marauders. SBRL and some JPLE as well, of course.

How does Lily discover her buried feelings for James Potter? Picks up from James's and Lily's 5th year, shortly after Lily ends her friendship with Snape.

In their final two years at school, the marauders begin to realise that nothing stays the same forever. Love is blossoming, NEWTs are coming up, the threat of war grows ever closer, and as their time together at Hogwarts draws to a close, difficult decisions about the future must be made. James/Lily Remus/Sirius

Things are finally going James' way as he has become friends with Lily Evans. But staying in Lily's good graces proves harder than James foresees, especially when he and the Marauders finally unlock the secret of becoming Animagi. Tensions will boil over, lives will be endangered, and friendships will end. And all the while, Voldemort continues to grow stronger...

10 unrelated drabbles of Harry's life if his parents had lived. Rated M for language and sexual situations.

For Sirius Black, power is everything and he is not afraid to use it. (EDITING)

"James looked at her and she felt like her skin had suddenly caught fire. 'It's got one hundred percent, absolutely nothing to do with your essay.'": Featuring professor!James, student!Lily, and both parties' abandonment of better judgment. L/J. AU smut edition.

Lily Evans is going to take a shot, and James Potter is about to realize just how hard she hits. And no one else needs to know. [L/J AU: Modern Muggle edition]

Meet James Potter: modern-day Robin Hood, con man, thrill seeker. He and his merry Marauders have been hired to steal from none other than the highest in the land. Meet Lily Evans: the Queen's sister, activist, (likewise) thrill seeker. Lily Evans is James' mark. James Potter is in for a few surprises. AU.

"The way she babbled on about the place made it seem like some sort of promise land, but James knew full well that is was nothing of the sort. Sowsworth was a wasteland that comprised of seven shops, a pub, and the incredibly bored shadows of lonely people. It was not bloody Shangri-la." AU.

As the first war gathers steam, Lily and James work to build a life together, while Lucius and Narcissa's fragile world collapses. Severus copes with the consequences of his choices, and Peter encounters a temptation that will define him. Sequel to Buried Treasure and Transmogrify.

Imagine that one person that irritates, infuriates, & insults their way under your skin to the point where each moment with him or her becomes a pop quiz in self-control. Now, imagine that you've woken up in that person's body. For Lily Evans & James Potter, learning to navigate this unfortunate and stressful new reality is truly a walk through hell.

Her grandfather's war and her father's war were fought with metal and manpower. Hers was done with magic.

James Potter. Mr. Immature, Mr. Gross, Mr. Pervert,… Mr. I-want-to-lick-melted-chocolate-off-your-Quidditch-toned-golden-six-pack-and-watch-you-moan-WHAT! No. No. No. This is why going to Quidditch games is bad for your soul. It makes you pervy.

Jily Muggle AU: After being set up on a blind date neither agreed to, Lily and James decide that fake dating and staging a horrendous breakup would be the perfect pay-back for their friends' scheme. But after a while, who can say what's real and what's fake?

Lily and James decided to stay just friends at Hogwarts, and now Neville Longbottom is an orphan, Voldemort's missing, and Sirius is in Azkaban for killing Peter Pettigrew. James and Lily are the only ones left who can prove his innocence. If They Lived AU. Rated for smut and language. Cover art by Zeina.

She noticed him, of course she noticed him but Lily didn't let her gaze linger. She had always thought James was fit, but she didn't particularly want to. James Potter was trouble and she had enough problems.

Lily got pregnant at sixteen and left Hogwarts to work at an inn. After seventeen years of single parenting, she now has to manage a persistent James, nosy villagers, and a son who's all too interested in joining the Order. (Gilmore Girls AU)

What if Sirius had the other two-way mirror on him when he died and Harry found that he was able to talk to his godfather and parents though it? Not to mention, meet all those others who went before? "Sirius Black? Sirius Black!" "Pads, is that your pocket talking to you?" "I dunno, but it sounds like...no way, it couldn't have been there the whole time...Harry!"

"She was Lily Evans, after all, and if she wanted to be a seductress, she'd damn well be one." Lily's six-day attempt to get James. One-shot.

A lot of weird things have happened to Lily Evans in her life but this is the first time she's ever woken up with a penis.

She'd come without a date, dressed as Sandra D, and the owner of the bloody house, the host of the party she was attending, perhaps uninvited, the unfairly fit bloke staring down at her, was actually dressed as her fictional boyfriend. Danny bleeding Zuko. He was really, really fit. Based on a headcanon by comealongraggedypond. Thanks, Jess!

James and Lily have been fighting non-stop for months. When Moody orders them on respite, they retreat to Lily's old stomping grounds. More specifically, camping grounds.

James doesn't want to be (just) a friend. Lily misunderstands.

Lily intended to spend one night on James's pirate ship and leave with her purse a bit heavier. Now she's stuck on board, which might be less annoying if she could figure out where they were bloody going, if half the crew didn't suspect her of sabotage, and if she weren't falling for the captain. And why on earth is his cat wearing an eye patch?

Lily Evans is expecting to have an ordinary summer before her last year at Hogwarts. Little does she know that her summer will be anything but normal when she 'accidentally' tells Petunia that her boyfriend is James Potter, and said boyfriend shows up at her house, completely ruining her summer. Or does he?

Lily Evans has spent years despising James Potter. He has spent just as long worshiping her. When seventh year pairs them Head Boy and Girl, each comes to realize that their judgment isn't quite what they thought it was. This is the same story that was over on Checkmated, but I completed it here. Prequel to Heroes for Ghosts. Warning: this story is a strong M rating.

Lily uses all the Marauder nicknames casually, except for James's. He's rather upset about it...until she tells him the reason why.

Mr and Mrs Dursley of Number Four, Privet Drive, were happy to say they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. The same could not be said for their eight year old nephew, but his godfather wanted him anyway.

"We don't deserve her," the Head Boy answered thoughtfully. "None of us do. Not even me. Not because she's perfect. She's not. Sometimes I think she's even more disastrously flawed than the rest of us combined. And not because she's beautiful, even though she is. Certainly not for being lovely because she never was.We don't deserve her because she's so much more than we'll ever be"

It's 1989, an election year; Lily and James are agents working for Phoenix, the secret security organisation that ensures members of parliament are kept safe from terrorist threats during times of crisis, in both war and peace. When a former foe returns for a new round, they're sent in undercover to reveal what their enemy is planning. Will they survive the mad man? All-Muggle AU.

Lily has always considered herself ordinary. But as she enters her 7th year, things start changing and Lily starts going a bit mad. Suddenly, she's Head Girl, her mates are acting strangely, and there's a new James Potter she can't seem to get rid of. PRE-HBP

Lily Evans and James Potter are cooperating with each other. In fact, the latest whispers around the Hogwarts rumour mill have nothing to do with them, together. Lily's acting increasingly strange, though, and her friends and the Marauders - minus James - are determined to get to the bottom of it. It can't be anything too serious - but haven't you heard the rumours?

"I'd like to assign the two of you a special, undercover mission," Dumbledore says, his wrinkled fingers steepling on his desk. "I require two Order members to pose as a newlywed couple."

"As a real battle would, this arena will test you physically and mentally. As you would in a real battle, you will be fighting enemies and, as in a real battle, you will need to know when to have allies and when to work alone."

Who'd have thought that the man who tore them apart was the one who brought them together? Head Girl Lily Evans is determined to keep her distance from the Marauders but that's easier said than done when James is Head Boy and in love with her. It also doesn't help that she becomes rather attached to Sirius during an eventful Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson...

Their final year, their final chance at finding each other, his final plan to call Lily Evans his. To grow up. Full detailed summary inside. Canon pairings/characters. JP/LE alongside the ever wonderful Marauders.

It was called the Reginald Borage Grant for Innovative Brewing and Potionmaking, and Lily knew from the very start that she had absolutely no chance of winning it. LJOneShot.

What ever happened to Sirius Black, infamous Marauder? Everything in his life is going wrong: his grades slip, his abuse from his parents is no longer a secret. His friends know he's sick, but they can't stop him. Anorexia is all he has left. MWPP Trigger warnings for anorexia, bulimia, EDNOS, and abuse

Before they were Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs, before they formed Hogwarts' own unofficial Werewolf pack, before they became the youngest Animagi ever unknown, before they marched as soldiers in a clandestine and doomed Order, they were boys with secrets and a love for things that glowed in the dark. Remus/Sirius

Part I of in-progress trilogy [6th year]: The thing about being Lily Evans and James Potter was that you couldn't do anything without everybody else saying something about it.

James poses as an advice charm in Lily's diary. He's really got to start thinking through his shenanigans.

Punk guitarist Remus Lupin was never been a big fan of popular band 'The Marauders', but with a chance like this, how could he resist?

"Five days." He said finally. "You give me five days to make you fall for me. And I get to do whatever I want with you, for those days." "And what do you get if you win?" She asked uncertainly. He held a small smile. "I get you." L/J

James Potter is in for a bit of a surprise. May contain citrus fruit.

Can James every truly give up on Lily? Can Lily ever learn to love James? What happens when fate seems determined to throw them together. My version of how Lily and James faced 7th year and their changing feelings towards life, love and each other.

"What're you doing here! And why are you...why are you naked!" "I could ask you the same question. Not that I mind though. Honestly, Evans, you should dress like that all the time." *Life is a mystery.* -LxJ-

James Potter is now the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor four years after he graduated from there himself. He thinks everythings going well until he gets some very bad teaching habits whenever the head girl's around... please read and review

Since the fateful night in sixth year, Lily and James had made no secret of their mutual loathing. But when their new positions as Heads forces them into unwilling cooperation, old wounds reopen and new truths are brought to light.

"The class of '77 is going camping!" McGonnagal announced in a falsely cheery voice. "With Professor Slughorn!" She glanced around before tacking on one last detail: "No magic." James fell down the stairs. R&R? Complete!

AU. It's been a year since Lily's seen James Potter, but what will happen when he saunters back into her life with that same arrogant smirk and his annoying way of knowing just how to push her to the edge? L/J, Lily's POV

"James Potter, is it possible that you're not quite currently alone?" "Why yes, Padfoot, it is." In which Sirius hears things he would rather not. LE/JP

Lily genuinely liked James Potter. He was handsome enough to make any girl swoon, but he was also funny, clever, and secretly kind. Unfortunately, he could also be rude, thoughtless, spoiled, and cruel. Finding the balance was the tricky part. Author note: James is a jerk. Please don't be surprised.

James Potter is convinced that he and Lily Evans are meant to be. Sirius tries to help by gaining access to her thoughts. There he finds 'sexy chickens' and Remus Lupin's buttocks. But then everything goes haywire, and Lily is seriously confused.

"I think you're an arrogant, selfish pig, and I think you'd be doing both of us a favor if you just left me alone!" Potter stared at me for a moment, an unreadable expression in his hazel eyes, before uttering a single word: "Okay." J/L, Lily's POV.

Sirius...Or Remus...Decide to lock Lily and James in a room in an attempt to finally bring them together. But, of course, the plan goes wrong and Lily, along with all of the marauders, all end up trapped. And then chaos ensues.

L/J. The Aha Moment: a point in time when something finally clicks. Everyone realizes that there's something more between James and Lily, though it takes some people longer than others. James has always been a slow learner.

FIN. Lily was not prepared to go to Hogwarts to live a life of gender bending and cross dressing just in order to be able to play a serious game of Quidditch. But that cute chaser James Potter just might make up for all of it...if he weren't such a jerk.

"Then why won't you go out with me?" James asks quietly, looking down at me with blazing eyes. There are many reasons why I won't go out with him. 1 He's a selfish git. 2 He's not my type and 3..."You would hurt me."

In the final NEWT exam, Albus Dumbledore watches four students answer a question he himself had requested to be put in. What is love? Four students, four essays, and one delighted Professor.

This is the story of four boys. This is the story of how these four boys came to know each other, of how they became friends. This is the story of their unbreakable bond that could survive any test. This is a story that will ultimately end in tragedy.

Five year old Harry is sent back in time to Hogwarts. His teenage mother helps look after him, unaware that he is her son. Harry's father, James, shows great dislike towards him, but Harry eventually gains the courage to stick up for himself.

LJ. "They didn’t do it out of love. They were not in love, nor did they want to be. They barely knew each other. None of this was romantic, not even close. What they had together was purely business." R&R?
