"I think the perfection of love is that it's not perfect."
Love is a scary, deep, vulnerable trap that is easy to fall straight into and once you fall it's hard to climb back out. James Potter has been in love with Lily Evans since day one. Severus Snape has been in love with her since before day one, since before she knew he was watching from the bushes. Sometimes it doesn't matter that someone claimed to hate that other person, sometimes it doesn't matter if you've loved for longer, because love is uncontrollable, and sometimes unattainable.
notes: I have tagged the story under 'snily', no snily relationship happens in the duration of this story. To design the cover, I used canva. Finally, just a reminder I don't own any of the recognizable Harry Potter.

Modern Marauders (Jily fanfic)(Completed)
What I'm doing here is taking the Marauders' (James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter), Lily Evans', and Severus Snape's tales of Hogwarts and I'm turning them modern because I don't know what it would've been like when they were actually there so... yeah. This is mostly in the point of view of Lily Evans, but I might switch to James every now and then. I'm going to try and focus a lot of the Marauders, of course, and their relationships with Lily. And of course, Lily's relationship with Snape because let's be honest, we all ship it a little bit! This takes place in their sixth year so.... enjoy!

Written in the Stars
Severus Snape never believed in love. Not after Lily Potter died. Not after the war took everything from him, leaving behind a miserable husk of a man. But, the universe has a funny way of giving you the very things you thought you never wanted. Or ones you never thought you'd ever have... And for the grumpy Potions Master, that comes in the form a five foot two blonde spitfire who upends everything he thought he knew.Complete
