1, 4, 20 🥰
Hello friend!
1. How long ago did you start reading fanfiction? Writing fanfiction?
Hahahahahhahahaha okay so the short answer is I got back into fandom last November (binge-reading jumpstarted by a reread of TLAT) and started writing again in May of this year.
The LONG answer is that my babysitter introduced me to fanfiction when I was...10? So from the ages of 10-19 I was very into (mostly HP) fanfiction and would read/write (I had FLOPPY DISKS with fics on them, and still have my old journals). I moved into other fandoms after the books ended, and then got busy with college and stopped altogether. When I graduated college I somehow fell back into Jily, read TLAT and Comm, and then kind of fizzled out again, and then BOOM. Seven years later and I'm BACK in full force.
4. Link your three favorite fics right now.
This is SO hard! I'm going to list ongoing WIPs, of which I'm reading so many 😅 This is absolutely NOT an exhaustive list and definitely skews towards recent(ly updated) bias.
Class of '78 by @emeralddoeadeer
even the bones will do by YOU
no body, no crime by @wearingaberetinparis
(breaking the rules and giving a 4th title in case you're looking for recs since my list includes you lol)
you and i will die unbelievers by @thequibblah (not an ongoing WIP since it was completed this weekend but w/e)
So it seems that canon-divergent is the flavor of the month for me😅
20. What’s your favorite part about the fanfiction writing process?
I love the feeling of having completed something I set out to do! And I love seeing how different parts resonate with different people 🥰
Thank you again so much!
I'm on vacation, send me asks!

1, 6, 7 & 24! x
Hello! ❄️ thank you for the numbersss
1. Do you have a word-count goal for the upcoming year?
I'm a slow writer, so my word count goals are very noob-like. But I do plan on working extensively on my multichapter WIPs - so let's keep the target at 200K, and I'll get back to you on my progress halfway through 2023 XD
6. Which yet-to-be-started fic is first on your list?
Yet to be started? Probably this childhood friends to lovers au that I've been tinkering with. But yet to be posted is a really fun fic I've been working on with James as a Secret Intelligence employee.
7. Will you change anything about the way you interact with other writers?
My only plan for this is to spread positivity and encourage writers in the fandom by reading, commenting, and having healthy, supportive interactions with them 💜 Not too different from what I've been trying to do already!
24. By the end of this year, you want your fandom to think of you as “that author who _______.”
"made people fall in love with jily all over again" but also "made others feel welcome in the fandom"

BAD OMENS!!!! also slytherin Fred because honestly it’s lived rent free in my head for weeks
OOOH OKAY SOOO.
Bad Omens:
I don't have a snippet to offer of this one quite yet, but it's based on the song Bad Omens by 5 Seconds of Summer and it's angsty and sad. Very much "we're kind of bad for each other, but we keep doing this again and again because I love you so much" type vibes. There's a line of lyrics that's literally "so this is where we are, I should have seen it coming, every time you say goodbye, I say hello again" andddd it's a Jegulus thing. Because it HITS.
Slytherin Fred: A snippet for ya, circa Sorcerer's Stone era with my favorite little snake boys duo in this fic;;
“What are you doing?” Adrian huffed as he followed after him. In fairness, Fred hadn’t told him to follow. The tug at his sleeve could have been shrugged off. “We’re supposed to be going back to the common room.”
“Yeah, the common room. In the dungeon.” Fred muttered dryly. When his friend only blinked at him in further question, he gave a circled wave of his hand. “Where the bloody troll is.”
Dark brows lifted high on Adrian’s forehead. “Fair point. Where we off to then?”

78 🔥🔥
THANK YOU 💕
78. somewhere only we know - keane
ALL RIGHT so. i think this would be post war fremione, maybe even still at hogwarts during clean up. i think fred and hermione would be friends but not extraordinarily close, and one of them would find the other kind of... zoned out just looking at the destruction. probably fred finding hermione, honestly, and then he looks at her and says that not everything was lost. not only did they win, but they're going to rebuild and it's going to be better than ever. and hermione maybe says she likes things the way they were. and so fred takes her somewhere in the castle—maybe to the swamp they put there her fifth year, and he shows her that history is still standing, that more than just hope has persevered. the destruction is easy to see because it's new to them, so their eyes are drawn to it. but the things that are the same, that stayed standing, they're harder to see right now. and maybe hermione, who saw fred fall and thought he had given his life for a moment, until they were able to get to him and save him, says something like "but i can see you" and fred smiles and says "and i see you" and hermione is quiet for a minute, but eventually she says "we need somewhere to begin" (a la the wonderful lyrics) and fred holds out his hand and says "how about right here?" and she takes his hand

James knows, deep down, that he shouldn’t let himself get as riled up by Evans as he does. He should ignore it all — ignore the way she flicks her hair over her shoulders, that haughty tilt of her chin, the indignation that sparkles in her eyes when she glares at him.
It shouldn’t itch underneath his skin, a fury that never seems to quell, when their arguments tumble into something wild, a forest fire determined to burn through any tentative sprouts of greenery, those shy and hopefully threads of friendship that bravely fight their way through the debris.
He shouldn’t. He knows he shouldn’t. But he can’t seem to help the way he rears up immediately in defense, the stiffening of his spine when she meets his eyes. It doesn't matter how much James knows he shouldn’t. His instinct, always, is to fight back.

Never Really
For @jilytoberfest 2022 prompt 18: "Nah, she didn't."
Read on AO3 or under the cut!
Fluff, 433 words.
--
“How come she married him? She hated him!”
Sirius remembers Lily’s gaze resting on James during History class, while he’s busy doodling on the corner of his book. He remembers her sitting up in alarm when she notices Sirius watching her, and withdrawing with a shy smile and her cheeks slightly pink when he winks at her, with the mutual understanding that her secret is safe.
He remembers her unfailingly on the Quidditch stands during the Gryffindor games, cheering louder than everyone and marvelling at James’s fantastic assists and impressive goals, even as two days before she had been scoffing at him for thinking he’s something special just because he can handle a big red ball.
He remembers her jaw dropping to the floor when she arrives at Platform 9 ¾ to find James wearing the Head Boy badge, a “You?” that’s almost accusatory, only to overhear her later in the train telling her friends that “I’m not worried at all, I’m sure he’ll do a terrific job.”
He remembers her arguing with James for the better part of an hour about the best way to approach Volume-Reducing Transfiguration – James has got it right, of course – and not budging on her opinions even when he has shot down all her arguments one by one, choosing instead to cross her arms and scowl at him; but when they make their joint presentation next week, they’ve gone with his method.
He remembers James all but stumbling into the dormitory late one night after patrol, dazed, grabbing him by the collar and telling him with wide eyes “She kissed me, Padfoot, I don’t even know what happened, she had been so mad a moment before and then she just –”
He remembers James and Lily playing wizard’s chess in the common room, Lily somehow winning and exclaiming “In your face, Potter!” with a triumphant finger at him; he remembers James tugging at that finger and pulling her close, kissing her hard, and Lily cupping his face and kissing him back for so long that the chess pieces start complaining that they’re being neglected.
He remembers Lily during their last month of school, going about her day with an elegant diamond ring on her delicate finger, her friend Mary calling her future Mrs Potter and Lily rolling her eyes, but her smile soft and warm at the mention of the name.
And he remembers her in her wedding dress, glowing as she looks at James with perfect, undisguised adoration. A room full of their loved ones, friends and family, and she’s only got eyes for him.
“Nah, she didn’t.”

Thankies to @oneofthesirens and @nought-shall-go-ill for their help and support!

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love
Hi Joy & Becky and Athena,
(@joyseuphoria & @harryissuchalittleshit)
thanks for tagging me!
this list is for me (so these are my fave fics that I wrote, had the most fun with writing?;-)
1) Revelation. (Hogwarts 7th year, Jily)
Part of the fun of fandom for me has been meeting lovely amazing new people all over the world who enjoy, reading,writing or both... This fic was written when @oneofthesirens (i hope you're doing okay) and me decided we'd pick 3 microfic words and write something. We decided it had to be bloodless... you can see how well that worked out 😉
2) Big Little Lion Man (Curiosity Killed The Cat But Satisfaction Brought it Back) ( a What IF James Potter's Animagus wasn't a stag - and all the ways he could annoy Snape in this alternative AU)
I had so much fun (despite the hard deadline to write this as part of a fic gift exchange) with this... Another fic that is here because of a conversation with people I only know online...
3) Head Over Handlebars For You (Jily Muggle, Meet-ugly, Multi-chap) This story has my enthusiasm, my *how-the-hell-do-you-write-a-story* learning process and I love that a lot of people have been on that road with me ;-), also so much agony, tears even and frustration... but most definitely writing this and talking ideas about it has brought me so so so many smiles...
I wanted a few things... Some have already happened (James Potter riding a Cargo Bike into the canal, Sirius & Lily having all kinds of conversations... Harry the Hamster, FAIRY TALE sprinkles... Idk... along the way FLOUR & WATER turned into a thing too, so i hope to end this fic in the next two months with an honourable mention of a Toaster, A WEDDING, a HAPPY EVER AFTER (I'm sure that's not really a spoiler) anyway... this has so many hours of my life.... that I can't not love it... so yes...
4) Sunrise, Sunset
Sirius Black POV is so intriguing to me... I am currently trying to write the Sunset part (and am open to ideas... I thought there would be a sunset - wedding chapter ... mostly because our dear Smut Fairy requested a certain dress ripped off -lol) but my brain seems to enjoy thinking about sad things too and maybe a part two Sirius Black POV where he finds Lily the last time... oh Hush, that never happened ;-)
5) TDC - Another Muggle AU, jily & horses (idk) it's just ideas and vibes but I've many of those and I hope to turn this into a coherent thing at some point ... So this one is here because it's my fave thing to think about and experiment with how everyone would fit in here.
I feel like Pippi Longstockings ... “I have never tried that before, so I think I should definitely be able to do that.”
You're welcome to keep me accountable for that though ;-)

1. Looking for Alaska by John Green
2. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

4. The Two Princesses of Bamarre by Gail Carson Levine

✨A big shout out and thank you to all of you 😘 who participated and filled the December Jily Calendar almost to the point of overflowing with jily creations!🎇
Another thank you to all of you who sent us lovely wishes and greetings! 🤩
The last day of December and of the Calendar is posted so it's time for a recap!
Find the links to every day and the full tree under the cut!
Just want to start reading the fics and see the art on ao3 go to the December Jily Advent Calendar Collection.
1 December @joyseuphoria wrote exactly 500 words!
2 December @constancezin & @practicecourts show us a family moment of the Potters enjoying a white snow day in December 1980.
3 December @charmsandtealeaves has Lily wake up James with... snow, even before the fight begins...
4 December @annabtg wrote a bittersweet canon drabble.
5 December @arianatwycross shows us the best Remus there is - the one without a filter.
6 December @oneofthesirens has James agonizing over the perfect Christmas gift to give to .... you guessed it, Lily.
7 December @ohmygodshesinsane gave us a story of warmth hot!!! moments in the cold snowy mountains where of course there's only one bed.
8 December @chierafied's story gives us James with a plan to warm Lily up after a snowball fight.
9 December @annasghosts writes about giving each other gifts, the ones that mean something, in seventh year (much too sweet for Sirius;)
10 December @abihastastybeans makes our duo team up for the Hogwarts decorations.
11 December @wearingaberetinparis takes us along on another cold night, heated up by the mutual attraction of our lovely idiots in this Muggle AU (pt 1) with...just the one bed.
12 December @charmsandtealeaves : Friends never let friends spend Christmas alone, and they certainly don't let them go without a tree.
13 December @dizzy--bird has your Jily Order AU fix, hiding together with your nemesis, away from everything during the holidays, in a safe house with only... you guessed it... one bed.
14 December @arianatwycross takes us to the evening before Christmas, an evening Lily spends with the Potters.
15 December @zephyrcove made our hearts melt with a drinking game, snow (on the beach) and just the perfect amount of angst.
16 December @ohmygodshesinsane takes us with Lily on a last minute shopping excursion, ending inevitably in the Pub.
17 December @notorious-lightning-thief has Sirius taking Lily to a Slughorn Christmas party, how did that happen?!
18 December @charmingwillow takes us Christmas shopping in Diagon Alley and James & Lily are just idiots of the loveliest kind.
19 December @maraudersftw gave us gifts on her birthday! Lily has a very important question to ask James.
20 December @annasghosts wrote about James and Lily driving through a snow storm. Stranded due to the weather there's only one room left and a most unhelpful hotel owner.
21 December @blitheringmcgonagall gave us Pining idiots, snowflakes, hungover deer, posh purebloods, non-existent snowball fights, Black Family vocab... and be sure to check out the movie that inspired all of it! (it's there. on the post. it's worth watching)
22 December @charmsandtealeaves it's not easy to get back to Hogwarts, due to the weather, and will you believe there was only one room left!?
23 December @wearingaberetinparis thankfully gave us more of the muggle Formula 1 driver James and Sleekeazy's most favorite employee Lily having an uncomfortable ride up to Scotland. Tension is relieved but misunderstandings still keep them apart...

25 December @arianatwycross has James and Lily wet, cold and bothered after a snowball fight that ends with bucket challenges (sort of) and enjoy the jily Christmas TLE snippet. 🎵

27 December Another 2 presents in one box: @sweeethinny Choices and Consequences prt 2 & @ohmygodshesinsane Lily bides her time, before having to go the Dursleys for a Christmas dinner. She finds a dusty bottle. Remus has a lot to answer for.
28 December @sweeethinny 's three part fic is complete! It's Christmas, and Lily's choices need to be faced. Family is not an easy matter.
