❝ Sirius?" James nudged his companion in the ribs, earning him a glare from the fellow prince. 

"What?!" 

"Who's the girl?" 

"Which one? There tends to be a lot of girls at these things," The French prince responded, dripping sarcasm. 

"The one with the red hair?" James insisted. Sirius followed his gaze to a young redhead sitting in the corner. 

"I don't know, mate." 

"I wish I did... ❞

****

In a kingdom far away the Potters ruled, the Evans owned a cafe and the Blacks escaped their French counterpart's kingdom to be there too. 

As for Vernon Dursley... he was a rather pompous, conservative duke. 

And Remus Lupin? He was the advisors fairly bookish son. 

Severus Snape? He belonged to a rich family taught to despise the royals and their liberal ways in the kingdom of Hogwarts. 

And love? That was found in the most mysterious and magical of ways... 

Follow the journey of the peculiar residents of Hogwarts as love is rejected, searched for, mistaken for and finally found in a kingdom far away...

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? Ngl guys this fic has wayy more smut than i intended it to have so...take that as you will WARNING: this fic IS tagged Major Character Death, this fic is loosely canon compliant, just be ware! TRIGGER WARNINGS: This story does contain mentions of abuse, torture, self harm and obviously depictions of war times, if you find any of these distressing please take care of yourselves when reading and know your limits of what you can and can't handle, remember everyone is different and even if it is simply fiction it can still be triggering, what is important is you looking after yourselves <3 DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN THESE CHARACTERS BUT THESE IDEAS ARE MINE

"You're just a spineless, big-headed, moron Potter. Why on earth would I go out with a fleabag like you?" "It's just, James Potter!" says Sirius, leaning casually back in his chair, "Beaten by a girl!" "So you're back?" he smiles knowingly at her from the hospital wing bed. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* Hogwarts. The year, 1976. Before Harry Potter. Before Voldemort was defeated. Before the Second Wizarding War. Before the Marauders, Lily Evans, Severus Snape and so many others had died. This is back in the school days, where life may be seen as simple, yet growing increasingly complicated, choosing paths that will change their future. Choosing their sides. And not all will be on the same side. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* This is my take on what could have happened during the time of the Marauders, Lily, Marlene , Alice and Snape. Watch out for mystery, arguments, unrequited love and choices that can make or break relationships during the fifth year of Hogwarts for these characters. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* I have tried to connect my head canons with the little we have about the Marauders. This is my first ever book so any comments, votes or ideas to improve are greatly appreciated. Anyway enough of me rambling, if you've read all the way down here, um thanks, you might want to actually open the book now... and yeah. I hope you enjoy it! - NJCG (Around 22,500 words)

"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 :)

Little Riddle | James Potter

65 parts Complete

[ EDITING] James Potter was a skilled and talented wizard, his name a renowned one amongst Hogwarts students. Many knew him because of his outstanding Quidditch skills, most because of his infatuation with Lily Evans, but everyone knew he was a key member of the infamous Marauders that tormented the castle on a daily basis. Everyone thought he was an open book, easy to read, easy to keep up with. No one really understood how a chap as charming as James Potter would end up falling in love with Alexis Riddle, a renowned name in her own right, for being Lord Voldemort's little sister that is. But of course, James had always been cursed with having the worst of luck in love, and the fact that his loved one had been conceived under the use of a love potion proved so.
