CURRENTLY BEING EDITED & UPDATED (sorry for any inconsistencies in the next few weeks!!)

(slow updates??)

𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗡 𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘 𝗚𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗦 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗣𝗨𝗠𝗣𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗦, 
𝗠𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗣𝗨𝗠𝗣𝗞𝗜𝗡 𝗝𝗨𝗜𝗖𝗘! 

If there were two things Madeline was sure of, it was the fact that love didn't exist and anyone who believed in it was a complete idiot.

So when a pompous, loud-mouth Gryffindor makes an extravagant and "romantical" gesture towards the girl of his dreams, Madeline can't help but school him on the difference between love and infatuation. 

What she didn't expect was to almost die as a consequence at the hands of four Gryffindor troublemakers, a (sorta-kinda?) poorly brewed potion, an annoyingly perky first year and a goblet full of sweet, sweet revenge.

But hey, what's a love story without a little potion making and pumpkin juice?

Sirius & Eliza ▼ Sirius Black Love Story by stargazxe

I, Eliza Evans, was just an ordinary girl until something disastrous happened. We moved and the boy next door corrupted me. Instead of liking ponies and the colour pink, I loved playing jokes on other people. One day I played a nasty prank on an old man who lives down the street. The next thing I knew was that I was being sent half way across the continent and stuck in a school filled with boys. Fast track five years and here I am, back where I belong. I was finally going to see my best friend again, James Potter, the biggest troublemaker Hogwarts has ever seen and don't forget the infamous heartthrob and git, Sirius Black. Things are about to change and I have yet to decide if they're for the better. A Sirius Black Love Story trigger warnings have been placed on chapters 20, 21 and 26 that contain content mentioning and about sexual assault, please skip these chapters if it makes you uncomfortable reading about it.

StarChaser// Jegulus||✔️ by blue_fanfic_

LONG FIC // COMPLETE Fifth Year has rolled around for the Marauders at Hogwarts. However, this year is a bit different because a certain Marauder; James Potter, has found himself in quite the puzzle You see, James is stuck between Lily Evans, who he thought was the only one for him, and a certain dark haired Slytherin boy, one he never thought he would ever have anything to do with given that this particular Slytherin is a relative of his best friend. See this Slytherin is none other than Fourth Year Regulus Black. James had never seen anything in Regulus before but this year is different. This year Regulus is...attractive. Regulus, however, is not quite the same, see he does have feelings for James, he has done since he started Hogwarts but he had made peace with the fact that he would never compare to Lily Evans. How will this story of theirs pan out in the end?

Losing Game/// James Potter by gryffinpufffffff

"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that. He's my best friend, and h-he's in love with his perfect Lily-flower," Elsie sighed as tears began forming in her eyes. "But, Elsie... you don't see the way he looks at you, he-," his sentence was cut off by the girl with tears running down her face. "I don't see how he looks at me, but I see how he looks at her! And, t-that's enough to know that I will n-never be good enough to be with h-him," she snapped through stifled words. "But why don't you just tell him? Why don't you let yourself have a chance at happiness for once?" he asked stepping forwards, wiping her cheeks with his thumbs. "Because...loving him is a losing game. Either way, I'm the one getting hurt," Elsie whispered, falling into the arms of the boy in front of her.

A Marauder's Guide to Falling in Love by alliegrl

"So if its words that you are looking for McKinnon, I am fluently gifted with the art of speaking. But I'd much rather spend every day showing you exactly how I feel, knowing that you're mine and that we belong together." Its Marlene's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and she wants nothing more than to pass Transfiguration in which she is hopelessly failing. But her struggle to improve her grades means crossing paths with fellow student Sirius Black, who just so happens to be ridiculously attractive, arrogant, and unfortunately her best bet to acing the class. She doesn't know why Sirius has suddenly taken interest in helping her, but accepting his assistance doesn't come without consequences. Her best friend Lily Evans seems to think that there is something more to the relationship than meets the eye, but Marlene has convinced herself that she does not like Sirius in that way. However, things get a little complicated when her feelings become conflicted, and it doesn't take long for Marlene to begin wondering if Lily was right all along. Finally admitting to herself that her feelings for Sirius are more than just platonic, she must decide which path to choose. Suddenly, she no longer just has Transfiguration to worry about; she must untangle the complications of her love life and finally tell Sirius exactly how she feels.

One last year by dyinglesbian

Marauders era 1977-1978 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ,,Can I sit here?" the girl asked standing in the door to the train apartment. The unknown boy didn't answer. Maybe he was too focused on his book or he was just a brat. ,,Ok then." the girl sitting down in front of him. She just started staring out of the window. It's only them two. No talking. But maybe sometimes thoughts say more then words. No one would have believed if I would tell you that these two little kids are gonna become best friends. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ this is a love story. or is it? this story takes place in the 70's, but in a gay version, so most people accept and support gay rights. But marriage is still not accepted. Of course some other people are still homophobic, so we can get our loved angst. Triggers: Mentally Illness ED PTSD PA Suicide and others (I'm always trying to make a trigger at the start of a chapter that contain these things)

pure ; james potter [marauders era] by bella_bmth

"I found him in a lover; when his hair falls in his face, and his hands so cold they shake." Octavia Knight is a bright young witch born into a family of pure-bloods. She's known as a blood-traitor, and she doesn't want to associate herself with people who believe blood status defines a person and their worth. In her first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she meets four boys who instantly take her in and show her affection in which her family couldn't begin to comprehend. She's in her sixth year now, and what happens when people start noticing how she hugs a certain boy for a few seconds longer than she does with her other friends? Or how her eyes turn a light pink when she looks at him for too long?

The Stag and The Harpy | James Potter by cantbelievethis420

"Potter," Phoebe says curtly. James frowns and says harshly, willing the odd feeling he has to go away, "Griffin, all of that stuff still doesn't make you pretty." She scoffs and narrows her eyes, "I could say the same about you. What's that in your hair, Potter? Flobberworm slime?" ~In which Phoebe Griffin and James Potter realize that there is a thin line between love and hate.~ James Potter x Female OC #1 James Potter-3/2/2021 #1 Marauders-3/5/2021 #1 Lily Evans-3/8/2021 #1 Remus Lupin 3/13/2021 {This is just a fun thing for me to write!! I'm sure I have some messed up facts and things but please be nice. I'm not fluent in French!! It's also a bit of a slow burn. If you want to skip, first kiss is the chapter "7 minutes"!!!!} MATURE

Portraits of a Flower in Bloom | Jily by jamseypotter

"Oh Lily, you really are amazing, you know that?" Lily sighed, same old James he was probably going to ask her out again in 3... 2... 1.... and... Nothing. Huh, she thought to herself, maybe he really has changed. James looked back at Lily and grinned, she quickly looked away and his face fell. I need to get her out of my head, he thought, she doesn't like me anymore, end of. No point in going after a girl who hates you anymore, who knows how much time we all have left. The door opened, and they both looked up. Prefects started filling the room, ready to start the new school year. Lily smiled professionally and James mimicked her, greeting and congratulating the other students. Before Lily started to speak, she took a last glance at James. He smiled slightly, his small dimples made him look so innocent and adorable. She breathed in and looked down at the paper in front of her, one thought protruding out from the rest, I will not fall in love with James Potter. --- In their final year at Hogwarts, Voldemort is on the rise, luckily though, Hogwarts is still safe... mostly. James and Lily are finally civil but Lily finds herself feeling something more that she can't keep denying. Remus is drowning himself in school work, blaming the upcoming NEWTs, but Sirius isn't convinced, could there be another reason for his constant avoidance? Meanwhile, a new arrival in school has easily made friends with all her fellow Gryffindors... except Marlene: determined to befriend the newbie, Marlene insists on spending more and more time with her. There could be more to all these friendships, but with the stress of NEWTS and a potential war on the horizon, will love blossom, or is it too dangerous to keep loved ones close? Mainly Jily, but wolfstar and Marlene x fem!oc slowburn fluff as secondary love plot lines :)
