Overshadowed by her brother, Dahlia Lily Potter grew up in the shadows, finding solace in books, secrets, and quiet rebellion. At Hogwarts, she proved herself a prodigy, force to be reckoned with-dangerously clever, ambitious, brilliant, cunning, sharp-witted, and fiercely loyal to those who truly saw her, forming unbreakable bonds and forging her own path, away from expectations. She played the game differently-protecting those she loved, outwitting those who sought to control her. Torn between mischief and strategy, love and war, she carved her own path, defying expectations at every turn.
She was never the Chosen One.
But she refused to be forgotten, insignificant.
She chose herself.

He was born to break the rules. ═══ Claire Proulx grew up believing one thing: your image is everything. What people think of you matters more than who you really are. It was a truth passed down by her mother - harsh, cold, and impossible to question. But when James Potter - her best friend's older brother, the boy with the maddeningly bright hazel eyes - starts challenging everything she thought she knew, Claire finds herself questioning more than just her reputation. ═══*. ·:·. ☽✧ ✦ ✧☾. ·:·. *═══ ✩*ೃ.⋆ 𝐎𝐑, 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 --- She was raised to be untouchable.

But the more he gets to know her, the more the lines blur between right and wrong, friendship and something more. In a story about breaking expectations, finding your voice, and learning to see yourself through your own eyes - not someone else's - Claire and James might just rewrite the rules... for each other. ═══*. ·:·. ☽✧ ✦ ✧☾. ·:·. *═══ #3 in jamesxoc as of 11/30/24!!!! #2 in jamespotterfanfic as of 12/1/24!!!! #1 in jamespotterfanfic as of 4/1/25!!!! #2 in france as of 4/12/25!!!! #3 in prongs as of 4/24/25!!!! #1 in jamespotterfanfic as of 05/05/26!!!! ✩*ೃ.⋆ .• ✯. previously named imperfections All original Harry Potter characters belong to JKR(😒)..... yappa yappa yapp

My Lover - James Potter - discontinued -
SLOW UPDATES - Can't promise a finish. Ophelia Barnes, a name whispered in the hallowed halls of Hogwarts, yet a legend in a world far from magic. She is the elusive daughter of two icons-the steadfast Steven Grant Rogers and the intricate James Buchanan Barnes. Yet to the family that raised her, she's simply their little girl. The Avengers would all argue that she is just as much their daughter as theirs. Her magic and wit are so powerful they somehow earned the guarded respect of Nick Fury, who she has managed to make into a warm and loving, if not slightly awkward, uncle. Even the formidable Guardians of the Galaxy enjoy her presence, and she has an unbreakable bond with Rocket, the foul-mouthed raccoon. At Hogwarts, she is a proud member of Ravenclaw, a house that suits her brilliant and curious mind. There, she has found her family in the quiet corners of the Black family-Bellatrix, Narcissa, and Regulus. Their shared history and understanding have forged a bond that runs deeper than blood. The self-proclaimed Marauders, a whirlwind of mischief and chaos, have long been intrigued by Ophelia. But to James Potter, she is something else entirely. Her confident silence and cool demeanor make her feel intimidating, a stark contrast to the easy charm he's used to. He knows he wants to get to know her, but he's not sure how to approach a girl who feels less like a person and more like an epic poem. But what if he no longer has to? No Lilly hate just how I have written her. What if Remus and Sirius ended together? What if Peter didn't betray his friends? What if all the blacks had finally escaped?Complete

Sirius Black tries to write all his wrongs but he has to start small. He finds himself back at Hogwarts where everything went wrong trying to rebuild everything he helped break, everything he desperately needed to fix but while he's there he never expected to be brought to the room filled with all the kids who were parentless. And he never expected to be so drawn to a little girl who reminded him of himself. The Harry Potter universe belongs to JK Rowling along with most characters except my OC's and the plot is my own.
