Ever since Lily Evans met the dark and foreboding young wizard named Severus Snape, she has always loved him. She has never understood why James Potter and the other so-called Maurauders insisted on treating him so terribly. Severus Snape has always loved Lily. She showed him kindness where others showed him only hatred and violence. But can she love a pathetic loser like him? What if Lily chose Snape? What if there were a different set of circumstances that led her to ultimately marry and die Mrs. Lily Potter, instead of Mrs. Lily Snape? Here is what I think would have happened if things had turned out slightly different for Lily and James.

Lily Lives On by SaintWeirdness

LOSING IDENTITY: Welcome To My Mind (part 6) Severus manages to save Lily's life through an agreement with the Dark Lord. This story is an alternative to the Harry Potter canon, where Lily has deep feelings for Severus which, later on, turn into love. This story also seeks to make Severus Snape rise up to his full potential, personality-wise as well as magic-wise. Although I tried to portray SS as accurately (in terms of books) as I could, I am also well aware that if it were 100% accurate, then a functioning relationship with Lily would not be possible. Therefore, I made slight amendments in his behavior, only in details, just to make the relationship work. It is also to be noted that Lily Potter is not exactly a fragile flower in this story. She is powerful and can also be rough towards Snape if necessary. More chapters will be added over time. There are many hurt / comfort chapters as well as light-hearted chapters (starting with Worst Teacher Ever). I tried to turn the story into something little bit more than just a romantic Snily fanfic. You can come across neologisms such as "Slytherdor" or "the double patronus" and much more. The story is, occasionally, embellished with illustrations made by me (but don't expect those to be too brilliant). Some trigger warnings to top it up: anorexia, abuse, torture. Also, 1) don't read this if you think that Snape is a saint and Lily didn't try enough. Or do. Maybe this will change your mind! ;) 2) don't read this if you are the other extreme - Snape hater. In that case, just don't.

Marauder era: Lily takes a look back at her last year at Hogwarts. A story full of twists and turns. Her time with Severus and the love they shared. Her relationships with James, Sirius and Remus. This is a story filled with love, loss, anger, betrayal and redemption. How much would the story have changed if Severus's mistakes were a little different? What would have changed if Severus had changed sides sooner? Would Lily forgive him, would her choices be different? How would James, Sirius and Remus play into her life with these changes? Had these things happened along with a chance at redemption and a lot of forgiveness the boy who lived story could have been a lot different. This story does not follow canon exactly, it is my personal take on how things should have been. Updates will be frequent. I do not own any thing. All credit goes to JK Rowling.
