Morning in the prefects' tower
"You're beautiful," he whispered, and she felt him run his fingertips along her spine. She arched under his touch and had to bite the inside of her cheek to keep from moaning.
"I have to go," she said, sitting on the bed. She didn't turn to look at him, she knew that as soon as she looked at him, she wouldn't get out of this bed until the evening. And she had to show up in the hospital wing. Like every Saturday, she volunteered to help. It was a mini training session before the healer course. Nothing could stop her from going there. Even his kisses on her shoulder blade. His hands on her stomach. Nothing.
"Stop, I have to go. I want to go," she gasped, falling back on the pillows. James started kissing her neck. "Not everyone is charming, funny, good in everything and can get away with everything. Some of us have to try harder and show our best selves" His hand lazily stroked her thigh. "You're a bad influence on me, and you're a bad influence on everyone."
"My very, very serious Lady Prefect," he whispered in her ear. "I just wonder how bad can a good girl get?"
....

@jilychallenge | April 2024, April Fools in Love | partners @eastwindmlk and @thelighthousestale
AN: okay so… life is really kicking the shit out of me atm. But I really don’t want to have to restart my Jilychallenge streak. So…. This is where we at.
Prompt:
Read Knight in Shining Armour on AO3 or below.
She’d jinxed herself. Why had she mentioned to Mary it was nice and quiet? What on Earth had possessed her to utter that thought out loud? Nice and quiet had suddenly shifted to suspiciously too quiet and a burning sense of unease, followed by the thoughts what in Merlin’s name is that racket?! and I don’t want to know.
Lily looked up from her transfiguration textbook to see a suit of armour (that usually stood in a pair either side of Professor Flitwick’s office) walking gallantly toward her from the direction of the open portrait hole.
Here we go…
She closed the textbook knowing there would be very little studying going on now that her peace had been disturbed.
The knight lifted his visor and bowed. “M’lady.”
“Potter.” Lily rolled her eyes. “To what do we owe the pleasure?”
A second suit of armour burst into the common room, sword drawn. “En guarde!” It shouted, sounding suspiciously like Sirius mimicking a French accent.
James grabbed Lily’s hand, drawing it to his face and kissed her knuckles, a smirk playing across his lips.
“My lady, I fight for you and your honour!” he announced loudly, as if the commotion hadn’t already been enough to draw the whole common room’s attention.
He dropped her hand, replaced his visor and stalked in Sirius’ direction, while attempting to retrieve his own sword from it’s scabbard at his side. When (all of three paces in) he promptly tripped on the floor rug and went careening to the floor with an almighty crash.
Sirius broke character, collapsing to his knees and overcome with laughter at his friend’s misfortune rather than attempting to help him to his feet.
Barely managing to conceal her own chuckles, Lily called out over the din, “My good knight, though I admire your courage you have no need to fight the floor for my sake.”

Tbh the problem with ship wars is that everyone tries to find a moral high ground to prove their ship is superior when actually shipping should be about making two characters kiss like a kid playing with barbie dolls

“‘Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart!’ Like my dad.”
Snape made a small, disparaging noise. James turned on him. “Got a problem with that?”
“No,” said Snape, though his slight sneer said otherwise. “If you’d rather be brawny than brainy – ”
“Where’re you hoping to go, seeing as you’re neither?” interjected Sirius.
Sirius, James and Severus in The Deathly Hallows.
“Think my name’s funny, do you? No need to ask who you are. My father told me all the Weasleys have red hair, freckles, and more children than they can afford.”
He turned back to Harry. “You’ll soon find out some wizarding families are much better than others, Potter. You don’t want to go making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there.”
He held out his hand to shake Harry’s, but Harry didn’t take it.
“I think I can tell who the wrong sort are for myself, thanks,” he said coolly.
Harry, Ron and Draco in The Philosopher's Stone.
The parallels between Harry and Sirius are both beautiful and heartbreaking. As are the differences.

teenage struggles (April 22nd prompt; Mistake) @jilymicrofics
Lily knocks on Harry’s dormitory door, before slowly opening it to spot him perched on his bed. His back leaning against the wall as he stares broodingly out the window.
He looks so utterly crestfallen…James had been right, Harry‘s date must really have been bad.
She bites lip in silent sympathy. „Hi, sweetheart,“ she addresses him quietly. „Can I come in?“
Harry, who’s only just seemed to acknowledge her presence, blinks at her for a moment. „Mum? uh, yeah…sure.“ he replies.
She crosses the room, ignoring how messy it is — teenage boys, right?
Sitting down on the edge of the bed, she reaches her hand out to lightly touch his knee. „Date didn’t go well?“
Harry sighs, fiddling a bit with the hem of his shirt — the one he‘s so eagerly put on just a few hours ago, with the brightest smile on his face as he‘d told her about his date with Cho Chang.
Lily scoots closer, until she’s sitting next to him, wrapping an arm around his shoulders. „Tell me what happened?“
„Well…we, sort of, uhm…kissed—“
Lily’s eyes widen with surprise. „You did?“ she asks, cringing slightly at how high pitched she sounds. But…it’s not everyday her son gets his first kiss, is it? „Then, why do you look so gloomy?“
„Because,“ Harry groans, hiding his face in his hands. „I shouldn’t have— it was a mistake.“ he runs a hand self-consciously through his hair. „She cried. She cried as we…kissed, because of— of Cedric.“
Oh dear…
„Oh, darling…I’m sorry. She shouldn’t have kissed you whilst struggling with…what happened.“ Lily replies, running her fingers gently through Harry‘s curls.
„Yeah…“ Harry shrugs, before he shifts his head to lean it on her shoulder. „Thanks Mum.“ he whispers, after a moment of them just sitting there. He takes her hand, which she all too gladly allows for him to hold.
„What for, Harry?“
He looks up to her through his lashes, smiling slightly. „Being here.“

i love characters who lie. i love when a character is established as a capital L Liar and then we as the audience can’t take anything they say at face value. i love liars fakers schemers deceivers. characters whose tongues are outright necrotic with the rot of their lies. characters to whom truth is a stranger. i am kissing them on the lips btw it tastes disgusting

For @charmsandtealeaves from Petals and @constancezin 😘 Spitting Image is so great, and so was your ingenious move to make Gringotts a Sperm Bank.
I wanted you to have it memorialized in James’ shirt (which he 100% got as a thank you for donating sperm during a promotional period) this fandom is so lucky to have you!
Shoutout to Constance, who didn’t even hesitate when I ran to the inbox to ask for this beautiful drawing 🥰 another perfect Constancezin for my wall 🥰

I’m so ready! Surely publish your essay on AO3, @merlinsbbeard and I would love to pop the link to it in the notes of the exam chapter 😩

@merlinsbbeard you’re Snape, obviously.
(Why can I not find any gifs of Severus and Minerva being the Best And Cuntiest Of Friends that they are? It is causing my violent distress.)

I'm loving it! @merlinsbbeard and I spent a while tinkering with that particular question so to see it actually answered by someone other than a figment of our imagination is mindblowing! Seriously, I couldn't stop smiling while reading your snippet.
