“And the years passed like scenes of a show. The professor said to write what you know, looking backwards might be the only way to move forward. Then the actors were hitting their marks. And the slow dance was alight with the sparks and the tears fell in synchronicity with the score. And at last, she knew what the agony had been for. The only thing that's left is the manuscript. One last souvenir from my trip to your shores. Now and then I re-read the manuscript, but the story isn't mine anymore.”
But it’s Lily Potter(Evans) if she survived Halloween 1978, but James Potter didn’t.
“She thought about how, he said since she was so wise beyond her years. Everything had been above board, she wasn't sure.”.

“Soon they’d be pushing strollers. But soon it was over”

“Truth, dare, spin bottles. You know how to ball, I know Aristotle. Brand new, full throttle. Touch me while your bros play Grand Theft Auto. It’s true, swear, scout honour. You knew what you wanted, and, boy, you got her.”
Buts it’s Lily Evans writing about her boyfriend James Potter.
James “you know how to ball” Potter.
Lily “I know Aristotle” Evans.
“Screamin', "But, Daddy, I love him. I'm havin' his baby". No, I'm not, but you should see your faces”
But it’s singer Lily Evans singer about her boyfriend James Potter.
The first time Lily saw James for James was when he was being himself. James helping a first year that was really homesick and didn’t know where to go and how to find their classes - Lily was on her way to help them - James being there first on his knees telling them it’s okay and taking their hand and walking them to their class and getting in trouble for being late but not telling the teacher why, he got a detention for being late and being disruptive, just for helping someone. Lily realising maybe he isn’t just a pure-blood slob always getting in trouble for pranks, maybe he is a good person.
For the first time in her life he realised, maybe James is a sweetheart like Sirius has been telling her.
James: Lily, can I ask you a question?
Lily: You just did.
James: Okay, can I ask you two questions?
Lily: You just did.
James, frustrated: OKAY, CAN I ASK YOU FOUR QUESTIONS?!
Lily: You just did.
James: When?!
Lily: Just now.
Lily: Can I have 2 straws with that milkshake?
James: Aww-
Lily: With 2 straws, I can drink it double as fast!
Lily, walking into Potions looking disheveled: Sorry I’m late professer, I was doing… stuff
James, walking in looking equally disheveled: I’m stuff
Remus: Don’t kid yourself, she pushed you down the stairs
Jily Proposal
hogwarts graduation
after the ceremony, they cross the lake to the station by boat like in 1st year (to make it a whole circle)
they can’t fit four in a boat anymore
lily and james together
remus and sirius really close by with a camera
halfway across the lake, james gets on one knee
he doesn’t even finish his sentence before she says yes
they are both so happy
they stand up and kiss
its so romantic
until the boat tips over because they are standing up
but they are still so happy and laughing
its just a really sweet moment
i love when people make james a person of colour (personal fav being arab james) cause it just makes his relationship with lily so much more interesting.
you have lily evans, the muggleborn witch systemically oppressed by magical society and so as a result constantly feeling the need to prove herself as a capable witch.
then on the other hand you have james potter, a brown man raised in 1970s britain where racism was very common place in society and often times encouraged.
the different ways people could go about exploring this dynamic and the way their lived experiences mirror each other and how it results in them becoming each other’s safe space where they otherwise couldn’t with other people. add onto that their desperate need for validation as a result of oppression and you’re all set.
idk how this happened but somehow spotify went from ziggy stardust to love story just when james started saying his vowsss!!!!
Autumn and Lily, James Potter's Two dearest Sights..
His Two absolute and favourite things.
He still can't believe it. His Lily, his love, was finally going to be his, they were finally Going to be 'Jily' (what Sirius likes to call them) officially!
No boundaries, No regulations. It was just going to be him and his Wife.
"You may now speak your vows" The Pastor's words shook him out of his thoughts.
James cleared his already dry throat and glance at his best man; his brother, Sirius Black. Who was grinning like an Idiot for his best friends happiness and 'doom' as he likes to call it.
He rotate his gaze to the crowd where his Friends , Remus and Peter were looking at him, admiration and love in their eyes for their mate, on a little left were his parents , Euphomia and Fleamont Potter.
Her mother was sobbing while his father was holding her..On the verge of tears himself.
From the corner of his eyes, he can see his Mini ..the Strictest Professor with teary eyes and a smile on his wedding..Woah, that's a sight to remember, he thought.
Lily's father was a crying mess too..her mother consoling him..well, someone's emotional for his daughter..
Their close friends, Professor Dumbledore, The order and..Lily.
What else can he ask for? He's blessed, blessed with everything.
He now,turned and saw his world, his would- -be-wife smiling at him.
And that's when he forgot to breathe..With her green eyes..his white lace dress, her veil and that smile worth dying, he was unable to hold back his tears.
This was finally going to be happen..all those years of wait, of redemption, of patience, of Love.
She was finally going to be his..
His lily flower was going to be his.
"Mr. Potter, the vows" the pastor repeated..and he Again shook his trance..With another glance at his bride and his best mate he started pouring his heart.
"I, James Potter, Promise to cherish her wife in sickness and in health, whether I'm poor or On the top of this world I promise to be hers, and hers only... I'll stand back on her achievements, beside on her kindness, and on her front to support her..
I'll be the first one to hold her tears and the one to make her laugh.. ( Sirius: Oi prongs that's my job!!) My glared was enough to shut him.
I belong to and for Lily, always and forever."
Applauses and Hooting can be heard from the small crowd..
Lily was shedding happy tears, and I? I was as promised, the one to stop them from falling.
She took a hold of my hand and I kissed her's instead.
"Ms. Evans, your vows please" The pastor requested.
She looked at her parents and then me, she smiled before proceeding.
"I lily evans, vows to Be everything James will ever need , whether to take care of him like a mother, or joke with him like a friend, to guide him like a father or to challenge him like a rival ..I promise to fullfill everything and to become his and his for eternity..and be The one James Potter improved for.. I promise to be always be his lily flower.
I take James as my Man, for always and forever "
The applauses and Hootingwere louder this time..oh deer.. is lily stealing my thunder ? A thought crossed his agile mind, but he brushed it away. It was his wedding afterall.
The time passed so fast but he can remember every single thing. His flower and him.
