I came up with the idea for Jade one bored lunchtime at school in E Block (I swear that place has magic writing helping powers) and wrote it down.
It wasn't until at least a day later that I showed it to @Atlantari. She agreed that it was a good idea and basically nodded me all the way through my working out of the details.
The first person to read the draft for the story was @Atlantari. However, it became my thing, the thing I was always doing, and soon in Tech I showed it to my other friends, Maddison and Laura (@Visceral, but she's on permanent hiatus).
Then one lunchtime (another one in E Block, sue me for the rain) another of my friends, Holly (@hpb_reader) read it. Well, partly. The bell rang so she kept reading it through Science.
She really liked the story and kept bugging me to continue it, but had one problem.
"I don't get what happened with Jade's parents getting married and stuff."
So I explained - Lily and James fell in love and blah blah blah, but then Lily divorced him to go marry Snape.
"Aww no! Poor James! I'm not in love with your fanfiction anymore...."
So naturally, feeling guilty, I had to change it.
(Thanks Holly. The old thing didn't make much sense anyway.)
