75 fluffy jily fics for a happy new year
Anon: Hello! I'm a college freshman and it's my first exams week and I'm physically ill and also homesick and so could you pretty pretty please direst me to some wholesome jily fluffiness to make things better? 
Sorry for the late reply! To make up for it, please have way too many fluffy jily fics to make you feel better. <3 I 100% gave some of these drabbles arbitrary titles because ‘untitled’ is boring when repeated thirty times.
hogwarts
and i wait for shore <> jiilys frequently I find myself agreeing to things I shouldn’t just so I can be next to you
arse over tea kettle <>  october31st1981 
her voice drifts down the corridor, and half of him wants to think something poetic about the way the sound of it envelops him, and the other half of him thinks he is a complete prat for even having such thoughts
ask me <> bcdaily “So, Hogsmeade,” she says, sitting before the fire in the common room next to him, going through some disciplinary paperwork McGonagall had passed off to them that morning–the downside of being Head Boy and Girl. “Have any plans?” 
can i tell you a secret? <> october31st1981 “Can I tell you a secret?” he murmurs into her neck. “You’re part troll,” she guesses. She pats him clumsily on the back, unwilling to move from their position sprawled out on the grass. “It’s alright, I’ve accepted you for who you are.” 
charms class and jealous hands <> realslytherinchick Sorry? Stop what? That thing you’re doing. Stop it. You’ll have to be a little more clear than that, Evans, I’ve no idea what you’re talking about.
eleven <> october31st1981 James Potter is very different from when he was eleven years old, you think as he kisses you. 
first time holding hands <> suchasart He was tall. Tall, and looking down at her, and the embers in his brown-gold eyes warmed a blush across her face. 
good, decent <> bcdaily She watched as he wriggled the bits of parchment he’d unceremoniously sprawled himself upon out from underneath him. Instead of tossing them atop one of the piles she already had stacked on the nearby coffee table, he began to skim through them, one by one. “What are you doing?” she asked. His gaze flickered to her briefly. “Helping.” 
how will i find you <> jiilys James, you say with your chin on my chest, let’s go live in the moon. 
jily drinking together <> october31st1981 “I am a gift,” says James seriously. Lily swings her body around, kicking him in the head in the process. She ignores his yelp, telling him, “That’s a funny way to pronounce ‘git.’”
lily stalks james <> bcdaily “I’m sort of starting to get the feeling that you’re enjoying stalking me.” “I am trying to keep you from blowing up the school,” Lily says, dipping her quill in her inkpot and gently tapping it against the chipped lip. “There’s pleasure in that, certainly.” “You’re sure that’s all it is?”
of sickles and snogging <> jamesstruttingpotter she didn’t even throw it, she just slowly pushed it into his face. it was the most sexually charged pie throwing i’ve ever seen. 
new year <> scared-of-clouds Lily Evans is planning on seeing the New Year in alone, then just getting through the rest of the year with as few problems as possible. Unfortunately for Lily Evans, very little in her life is that simple. Still, what difference can a year make?
nice <> newtscmandr In which Lily is hung over and has a nice conversation with James, about a certain part of his anatomy.
this could happen <> jamesstruttingpotter Future planning + Jily flirting.
the one with the forgotten two of diamonds <> iolanthepotter/apalapucian James and Lily brew Amortentia together—and nothing happens. Lily thinks she’s officially gone forever numb, James thinks the dungeons smell like a swamp, and everyone concludes they’re both idiots. Everybody’s daft in love.
quidditch shirt <> iolanthepotter/apalapucian Marlene peered at her and grinned. “He smells that nice, eh?”Lily whipped around to glare at her. “It’s very… comfortable. That’s all.”
study date <> october31st1981 “You’re an awful influence, Evans,” says James, glancing up from his Potions textbook. “I’ve never known you to complain about where I put my hands before,” she says, still grinning widely. 
testing (gift for an angel) <> bcdaily If he thought about this critically, James reckons he’s spent the better part of three years planning this date. (It really was a damn shame that Sirius seemed determined to cock it all up.)
that elusive aha moment <>  suchasart/wilhelmina willoughby 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. 
the early morning toast brigade <> ghostofbambi In which Lily Evans makes the best of insomnia, with the help of her womanly wiles. 
the juggernaut factor <> fabiansgoldwatch There’s something you have to realise about a boy who buys you sweets that taste like torture, fights a branch duel for your honour, or lets you dribble on his jumper: a boy like that should never be ignored.
the long haul <> bigquidditchhero “Don’t try and change the subject,” she said sternly, waggling her finger at him. “You’ve got loads of secrets, I know you have.” He shook his head as he turned his attention back to the crossword. “Evans, I don’t know what to tell you. I’m an open book.”
the story of a lady and a gentleman <>  hiddenpolkadots Lily scoffed. “Look who’s talking about rude,” she sniffed. “I’m standing here and you’re sitting there. Didn’t your mother ever teach you that’s it’s gentlemanly to give up your seat for a lady?” “She did,” he allowed. “But I don’t think that rule applies to cheeky bints like you.”
there’s a reason for all those love songs <> gxldentrio If you asked James Potter at what point he figured out that he was absolutely in love with Lily Evans, he wouldn’t be able to give you a straight answer.
married/engaged
a cold war coming <> thequibblah “Here’s an idea,” Lily said suddenly. “I’m all ears.” She grinned widely, her whole face lighting up. “Marry me.”
a compromise <> october31st1981 “And what woman do you expect to carry seven of your offspring into the world?” He takes a moment to consider this. “You, probably.”
a lavish affair <> bigquidditchhero “- I’ll still be thinking Merlin, that Evans, what a killjoy. But then I’ll think, thank goodness I get to do unspeakable things with her as well. The fun’s not completely lost that way, you see.”
adorable drunken babes <> sunshinedaisieswindmills He really would like to kiss her, he decided, so he closed his eyes and tilted his head and moved in, only to find that Lily was no longer standing in front of him. Instead, she sat on the floor giggling. “I fell,” she said, laughing. “There was a puddle and I fell and now my bum’s wet.” 
lace <> theodoornott “You look really beautiful,” he suddenly whispers in her ear, and she turns to her husband and just laughs because he looks so lustful and mischievous and positively boyish. She grabs the hand that is currently tickling her side, and kisses its palm. “You too,” she tells him, and she means it.
till kingdom come <> iolanthepotter/apalapucian “I love him so much, you know?” And it’s ridiculous, but Remus’s heart swells, and just then he can feel the tears stinging the corners of his eyes. “Bloody prat’s been in love with you since forever.”
say when <> ravnclaws “James?” she asks and he hums against her ear in response. “Really?” “Just say when.” 
starlight <>  iolanthepotter/apalapucian “I didn’t let you fall,” he answers. He smirks, draws you closer to labor the point of his pathetic excuse for a catch. Except he did, you think. And you’ve fallen. Oh, how hard have you fallen, Lily Evans, how hard are you still falling, a million times in the million little leaps of faith you’ve made with and for this boy, long before your feet touched the ground.
domestic/family
are you flirting with me <> october31st1981 She takes the hand that is not in hers and places it on her waist, while hers drifts to his collar. “You know, Lily, this feels a lot like flirting,” says James conversationally, his fingers pressing warmly on her rib cage.
morning <> apalapucian/iolanthepotter He was very, very warm. He stood there, still and quiet in all his messy-haired, bespectacled glory, just looking down at you with a raised eyebrow and a quarter of that trademark smirk. “Are you going to take it off or should I?”
ready, set, go <> bigquidditchhero James, Lily, and baby Harry are in hiding in Godric’s Hollow and they entertain themselves by playing with the cat
familiarity (kills the romance) <> ravnclaws When they go to bed that night, she watches as he brushes his teeth and as he changes into his pyjamas and as he kisses her goodnight, and she thinks about how James is not a mystery, he’s just a normal guy after all.
golden days <> suchasart/wilhelmina willoughby James and Lily like to appreciate the little things in life. 
golden retrieval <> preciselypotter Lily held up the black-and-purple briefs she’d just found on their bedroom floor. “Are these yours?” “What?” James stuck his head into the room. “What do you mean, are those mine? Have you been having a bloke over while I’m out?”
hands <> theodoornott Call it cabin fever but it has reached the point where she cannot resist looking on as takes the broken and downtrodden into his hands and brings them back to life, whistling tunelessly as he works and clicking his tongue whenever he’s in deep thought. 
au
a cauldron full of strong, hot love <> bigquidditchhero Lily’s got a summer job, and James is suddenly a keen potioneer. No war AU.
blue shell <> jamesstruttingpotter Did you actually just blue shell me on our date?
brand new neighbors au <> iolanthepotter/apalapucian What he’s trying to say is that, well, three knocks is too unceremonious a warning, and that he’s pretty sure this is his soulmate standing before him right now.
in another world <> itwasprongs/padfootdidit They meet accidentally, strings entangling together beneath the ink of Paris’ night. In the lamplight she is a ghost, hair on fire. James goes to her and the stars turn his backpack into dusty wings. 
intercepted communication <> ravnclaws I use morse code to talk to my friend during class but it turns out you know morse code too and now you know that i think you have a cute butt AU.
key limes <> fetchalgernon/cgner In which Academy Award winner Lily Evans discovers the periphery of internet fandom and the existence of Prince James’s gold star system.
laugh to fall apart <> realslytherinchick Lily is fond of laser tag, but when the Marauders find out she has no one to play with, they invite themselves along to a game. 
lessons in lesson planning <> fetchalgernon/cgner Lily and James are unwittingly set up on a blind date and execute the perfect revenge.
my spellbound heart <> hiddenpolkadots “What kind of person could they be if our shared mark is a pair of antlers on my arse?” asks Lily, craning her neck to stare at the ink, stark against her pale skin. No matter how hard she glares at it, it remains there.
pretty <> realslytherinchick “First you criticize the brilliance of my last-minute costume, then you nearly break my heart. Who are you, Lily, that you have such power over me?” “Either your worst nightmare or your wildest dream come true, but possibly both at once.”
rule #27 /’ the group with the pies’ <> poppypomfrey ‘Lily, take off the moustache, you’ve been wearing it for 20 minutes.’ ‘This is serious business,’ she says, tugging it from her upper lip, ‘and besides, it’s ten times better than your moustache.’ He can’t stop looking at her lips.
seven things <> iolanthepotter/apalapucian James leans in. Lily hears the script crumple in his hands, but she doesn’t look to check. His lips touch the corner of hers, a hand coming up to cup her face. He is moving. So. Maddeningly. Slow… She curses in her head, makes up about a hundred thousand excuses for the next second—and then grabs him down by the back of his neck and kisses him fully, desperately, fervidly.
shades of red <> fetchalgernon/cgner “I’d heard that the potion gave you Veela powers, but I didn’t know that also came with conceitedness.” “Is it conceit if my hair is that good? Because I think that’s just regular pride. Would you rather I lied and said I hated my hair?”
sheep riding and freefalling <> fetchaglernon/cgner He’s leaning forward in his seat to study an air vent, his face only a few inches away from the dashboard, his brow furrowed in concentration.“Fascinating,” he breathes. “Put your seatbelt on or I will pull this car over,” Lily says.
so tender and mild <> hiddenpolkadots If they lived fluffy domestic oneshot.
staff relations <> bigquidditchhero Professor James Potter is happy in his job as Transfiguration teacher - until the new Potions professor tries to ruin his life.
swipe right (into my arms) <> a_lrightevans Her thumb hovers over the unmatch button for a second, but then she switches back to his profile, and he really does have nice arms, so she just types out ‘you’re a massive prat and terminator is a shite movie, anyway’ and hits send instead.
textbooks, time scarves, and tea <> fetchalgernon/cgner Lily visits the coffee shop because Sev works there, even though he’s got a completely obnoxious coworker with admittedly fantastic hair.
the rom coms got it wrong <> hiddenpolkadots Fake dating AU
what a beautiful wedding <> a_lrightevans ‘Sneaking away… from your sister’s wedding… for a snog…’ said James breathlessly between kisses. ‘Classy, Evans—’ She shut him up by kissing him harder, knocking his glasses askew and tangling her hands in his hair. ‘Psh …’ she muttered as his lips moved to her neck. ‘This is what weddings were invented for.’
undercover <> a_lrightevans Lily scoffs. ‘We have sex like, once- maybe four times, and suddenly I’m your girlfriend?’ James shrugs. 
mine
a list is just a list -  The Marauders think the parchment James just dropped is a list of the places they’ve pulled pranks, but Lily knows better.

shining stars -  The ’78 Hogwarts class—Gryffindors, mostly—gather at a pub to catch up when someone brings up who, exactly, was to blame for Breda Padgett’s broken ankle, sixth year.
subtle arrangements -  Person A owns a flower shop and Person B comes storming in one day, slaps a 20 on the counter and says, “How do I passive-aggressively say fuck you in flowers?”
the one that i want -  James and Lily end up at the same costume party dressed up as two members of a famous fictional couple.
