Jily - Blog Posts

I love my pairings where the characters are both equally cunty/insane/idiotic/sweethearts, platonic or not

I want this 👉👈

Marauders band AU:

James and Peter forming a band in their really early teens. Denim jackets, converse and matching hair. Sirius black coming along years later looking for an escape from his family all of which are world renowned classical composers. Cigarettes, liquid eyeliner and painted nails. Potter on the guitar, Pettigrew on Vocals/Keyboard, Black on the drums. Remus lupin found them last, an eighteen year old with nothing to loose, Doc martens, Scars and hands born to play the bass. Lily, Marlene and Mary a band who they met at a recording studio. Sirius putting up his hair with drumsticks. Regulus carrying on the black name with Barty, Evan, Pandora and Dorcas, playing violins and pianos and cellos at opera houses. Wolfstar being shipped by fans worldwide. Joint Instagram accounts. Regulus teaching James how to play on a keyboard because he didn’t want to overshadow Remus. Sirius and Regulus being seen arguing in Public, captured by Paparazzi. Leather jackets and designer suits. Remus himself having a tremor in his hands, he needs meds for just so they can stop shaking. Arguments before concerts. Chaotic interviews, music videos. Questions asked about love, Peter smirking, James blushing, Remus kissing Sirius. The whole lot of them LGBTQ+ icons, Remus, Lily and Regulus performed a song together once and everyone went mental. I could go on. The potential is here guys.

IM SO EXCITED OMGGG

We all know James and Lily live a long happy life together but do you know how they met? Was it on the Hogwarts Express where one accidentally bumped the overhead luggage and caused it to drop on the other? Or was it because Lily wanted to know who lets their dog pee on her lovely Petunia that she keeps next to her door and waits to yell at him as he went about his morning routine? Who knows? Who will tell? And just so everyone can know the different answers to the above question, this year’s theme for jilytober fest is…🥁🥁🥁🥁 ‘MEET CUTES/UGLIES!’

Disclaimer: this post is a lil’ long

Bittersweet

We all know honey gets sweeter when you stir it up, but can you make it bitter too? What happens when we give you a fluff prompt but ask you to give us angst? We get bittersweet jily, addictive and delicious. Oh and how about when you turn our angsty prompt into sweet nothings and sugar coated love declarations? Absolute delight! Come ask for your prompt and twist it to your flavour

The participants will be given a fluff prompt which should be interpreted as angst. And vice versa. Those interested in participating in this challenge can send an ask, and a prompt will be assigned to you! (Yes, both writers and artists can participate 🥰). There is no deadline to register for this event.

Masquerade challenge

Are you as good as a Marauder at detective work? Can you sniff an authors tells at the poker table? Can you sense the writer before the end of the story? Can you tell which James loves Lily the most? If you think you can come have a guess 😉

A few writers will write and anonymously submit their fics to the challenge collection (will be posted soon). Readers have to match the fics to the writers. The options for authors will be given via a tumblr poll. Everyone is encouraged to participate :)

To be a writer, send an ask saying that you wish to participate by the 20th of September (so that you get enough time to write)

Jily sprinkle moments!

At the beginning of each week, 5 one word prompts will be posted. They can all be connected together to make one fic, or as many as one wants. There is no limit! Go grab that jily moment and put it in <<101 words! (If inspiration strikes, feel free to go crazy) Everyone is encouraged to participate! (Artworks, fics, moodboards, playlists—anything can be made). Do tag this blog and @jilymicrofics so that your works can be reblogged

JILY

James “he brings joy” Potter.

Lily “she brings Shakespeare” Evans.

—

Ron “You know how to ball” Weasley.

Hermione “I know Aristotle” Granger.

Sirius: where are you going Prongs?

James: to the aquarium.

Sirius: ..why?

James: because I’m an adult! And I can do what I want??

Lily: he saw a photo of a teddy seal and now he needs one.

James: why don’t you have a bf?

Lily: cause my parents aren’t really cool with that yet

Lily: what about you? Why don’t you have a gf?

James: cause your parents aren’t okay with it, yet

Lily: just to be clear; I’m too smart to be seduced by you.

James: well that’s why I like you.

Regulus: does she make you laugh?

James: she doesn’t make me cry.

“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.”.

But it’s Lily Potter(Evans) if she survived Halloween 1978, but James Potter didn’t.

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

Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily. Jily-

“He said, “I’m not a donor but I’d give you my heart if you needed it”. She rolled her eyes and said, “You’re a professional”. He said, “No, I’m a Good Samarita”.”

Buts it’s actually Jily.

“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.

My opinions on Marauders era ship names (my opinions no hate)

— Wolfstar - 7.5/10, I really like it it’s like a wolf howling to the moon but expect to a star, which is strange but beautiful. I’ve heard it sm it’s kinda normal for me idk, it doesn’t strike me that much. ~ Moonstar - 8.5/10, I love this also, I prefer this one tho. This one feels right and just seems more like engaging ig?

— Jily - 8/10, very cute name. Jily is the og name and I love it but.. ~ Flowerpot - 9.5/10 i love this name SM better, it sounds more iconic and rare idk, Flowerpot does different stuff to me. Gives me more love and home-y vides which fit them sm

— Pandalily - 9/10, it’s reminds me of a sunny day with rain: the perfect mix of warm and cooling down. It’s so cute ‘panda’ and ‘lily’ is such a cute mix and I love it

— Marylily - 5.5/10, very cutey I love lesbians friends to lovers. It’s such a beautiful fun name and I think the ship dynamic changes my opinion but I still love it

— Marlily - 6.5/10, sound smooth, I get kinda confuse this with Marylily cause they look similar but they’re still both very cute, I still like this name.

— Dorlene - 5/10, love this ship sm but this name is so weird, it doesn’t spell, sound or look nice. Just gives me weird vibes idk. The ship >>> the name

— Jegulus - 3/10, sick ship, the most known name even though I very much dislike the name. This name doesn’t sound or look that nice, it’s just weird to me but.. ~ Sunseeker/Starchaser - 8/10, much better, more iconic, more unique, more interesting. I like this sm better. It’s also real cause James be down bad for his lovers and is definitely chasing them. I think I like Sunseeker better tho, like Regulus seeking out James and making him fall inlove with him, makes me feels thing

— Rosekiller - 8.5/10, very luck fits their vides it’s just so perfect and I love it. I think it is kinda basic because it’s been around so long, but I don’t think anything else can fit their relationship so well into a name

— Bartylus - 2/10, I don’t really like this shop but the name just makes it worse, it’s just sounds dirty and messy and idk how to describe it idk ~ Starkiller - 8/10, that’s such a better name and is savage asf. I don’t really like this ship but this name is amazing, I don’t why but this name reminds me of flames for no reason and I think it’s real fitting

— Sunkiller - 6/10, sick name, sounds like something that would be a bad guy name like deadpool or smth. Like damnn, this ship is growing my and I think this name is helping. It’s a sick name and it kinda fits their vides, Barty’s part of his ship names being ‘killer’ always fits, and this is another one that shows it so well

~ Darksun - 5.5/10, savage, reminds me of an ellipse or like an apocalypse movie idk why but I ain’t complaining

— Moonwater - 8/10, I don’t like this ship cause I prefer them to be platonic but it sounds good. It’s such a great and smooth name and it’s calming and I just like it. Reminds me of the moon reflecting on water and it look so pretty and I like it

— Rosewater - 4.5/10, it sounds smooth and reminds me of rose petals in a bath with candles and stuff, but I don’t like the ship

— Rily - 0/10, so bad, sounds like that annoying boy that was in your class called Riley and ew ~ Moonlily - 3.5/10, sm better, reminds me of a waterlily and it’s so pretty. I don’t like them together but their friendship >>>

— Jeverus/Princechaser - 1/10, ew, that doesn’t look, sound or spell nice. It looks like it would be like green mold for no reason, I do like Princechaser a lot better than Jeverus tho, but.. ~ Stagposion - 8/10, like something that a person would drink and die from. Like a poisonous drink that you’d find in a bottle with the skull on it. Don’t like the ship, love the name

— Rames/Jamus — 0/10, also ew, I don’t like it at all. It doesn’t look appealing at all, it makes me feel gross. Just looks uncomfortable ~ Moonchaser - 9/10, 10x better, I love friends to best friends and lovers sm and they would be so cute together, I don’t really ship them tho. This name is very cute tho icl

— Jeter — 1/10, reminds me of that saying some white people say after something dramatic happens “jeepers!” Idk why but I think the J is throwing me off. It’s just a funky name ~ Prongsfoot - 5/10, much better, just give me a hella tall person with a tiny person for idk why. I don’t like this that much but it’s sm better

{idea from @jiangyanlissidepiece )

Regulus with lyrics from “Heaven knows I’m miserable now” by The Smiths;



“I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour. But heaven knows I'm miserable now”Regulus when he was with James, and after

“I was looking for a job, and then I found a job. And heaven knows I'm miserable now” Regulus getting his jobs with mr no nose

“In my life, Why do I give valuable time to people who don't care if I live or die?” Being around the death eaters and the shady lord

“Two lovers entwined pass me by. And heaven knows I'm miserable now” Regulus when Jily got together

“I was looking for a job, and then I found a job. And heaven knows I'm miserable now” Regulus working with the death eaters and realising why they’re feared

“In my life, Oh, why do I give valuable time, to people who don't care if I live or die?” Regulus still caring about Sirius, even after Sirius cut all contact with him and their “family”

“What (s)he asked of me at the end of the day, Caligula would have blushed” James spoke to Regulus again, and Regulus was still in love with him

" “Oh, you've been in the house too long” she said, and I naturally fled” Pandora said she was worried about Regulus being in that house, the same time, which he was planning with the Horcruxes

“In my life, Why do I smile at people who I'd much rather kick in the eye?” Regulus to his “family”

“I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour. But heaven knows I'm miserable now” Regulus happy with his friends, and after knowing he was going to the cave

" “Oh, you've been in the house too long” she said. And I naturally fled” Regulus reciting what Pandora said to him months prior, and him finally leaving to go to the cave

“In my life, Oh, why do I give valuable time. To people who don't care if I live or die?”Regulus trying to trick himself into thinking no one cares about him, so he doesn’t feel so bad about leaving everyone

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.

You’re my favorite character “i can ship you with almost anyone.”

vs.

You’re my favorite character “i can only ship you with one person/no person”

you better believe it bitches

follow up is "i didn't need to fix him, he fixed himself for me and i supported him and he is now an amazing human being but maybe only around me and it's actually very healthy"

this is very different from enemies to lovers ok

“whatever the fuck these two characters had going on” is a vastly underrated character dynamic

have some jily because jily

and because i havent posted in a million years

This is James Potter asking Lily out for the 12th time that week

Marauders era characters as thing my friends have said part 24

James: dude are you ever so tired you start awake dreaming?

Lily: yes it’s a disorder

James: ah

James: lovely!

James Potter never lived in a world without Lily. She was born first and died second.

*sigh* i dont know where these are coming from and why they are on my page but like, cant we all just chill or whatever? Like, i get not shipping characters or not agreeing with something but like, this fandom is full of complex characters that really, we know basically nothing about. Cant we all just relax and read what we want and not make a huge deal of hating a character or a ship? And also, just because people ship jegulus, doesnt mean that they are trying to degrade Lily. Like, no one said that because she was a wife and a mother that she wasnt a strong person. Ship who you like im just tired of the hate.

coming out as an og marauders girly: i HATE jegulus.it makes no sense.james would NEVER.regulus wasn’t the rebel you make him to be.he didn’t do it out of a feeling of justice.it was ego.you all make out regulus what sirius actually was.this ship legit ruined this fandom.jily forever.james and lily are soulmates.its okay to have a straight ship relax.lily being a wife and a mother doesn’t make her less of a strong woman.enough of this bullshit.i get that this fandom is based on imagination and headcannons but they need to make a little bit of sense tho. james would never date a death eater.or someone from his brother’s abusive horrible family.jily my beloved you will live.

You guys don’t get it i am so happy right now! Thessynyx just dropped the last chapter of “Black Cat in Every Way” and i am so happy, this is one of my fav fics ever and yall just need to read it!

The ultimate jily song
