Summary
‘I only said that before he was born,’ Lily admitted. ‘Before I knew.’
‘Before we both knew.’ They looked at each other—her reddish eyes, the unspoken evidence of private turmoil, and his glasses patterned with baby fingerprints—and laughed at the colossal thing that had mushroomed up between them, like an invisible city or a woolly mammoth...
October of '81. A teething toddler, a rainy night, an overstretched marriage, and Harry's final bedtime story.

Summary
"Oh, James..." she sighed. "You're a terminal optimist."
"Why shouldn't I be?" he asked, and nodded towards the wild Scottish landscape before them. "Look where we are. And what we've got. Less than one ten thousandth of the population has magical abilities, and we're in it."

Summary
He’d seen it coming. He’d known it from the beginning, some unconscious part of him recognizing the signs as they appeared before him, trying his best to find some other interpretation but always coming to the same inevitable conclusion.
He’d tried to reassure himself through the years that she loathed him just as he did. But it wasn’t until now, as the feelings of betrayal and anger washed over him like Stinksap, that he wondered whether she’d ever uttered those words at all.
Snape remembers all of the moments through the years where he suspected Lily might have fancied James back. Canon-compliant, Snape POV, set during Marauders-era Hogwarts years.

Summary
It's the 1970s and, inside Hogwarts, four boys are growing up in a Golden Age of fun, feasts and friendship. These are their glory days; this is their era and they are the undisputed kings of their own magical castle (in their own minds at least). But outside the castle walls, their little world is growing more dangerous. Dark wizards are on the move and, year by year, the threat of all out war creeps ever closer.
The complete history of the Marauders' time at Hogwarts.
(A/N As with the original books, each year is its own contained story while the war runs through the series as a whole, building year on year. First 5 years COMPLETE. See inside for separate yearly summaries)

Summary
"No friendship is an accident" - O. Henry
Remus Lupin, Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew first make one friend, then two others, when they start Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. To Remus, his new friends present a challenge: how to keep his secret from them? To Sirius, his new friends change nothing: he has never needed anyone, and nobody is going to change that: not even James Potter. To Peter, his new friends seem to good to be true: after all, they are cool, and brave, and intelligent - above all, they are Gryffindors - and the sorting hat was not at all sure he was one.
James Potter makes friends easily - and even makes an enemy before the school term has officially started. He is exactly where he's meant to be: a Gryffindor at Hogwarts, with friends by his side and a castle to explore. It's a shame not every Gryffindor student is as great as his three new friends, but then again, Lily Evans isn't really a Gryffindor, is she?
This is the story of the Marauders, Lily Evans and Severus Snape as they start Hogwarts in 1971, all the way until the discovery of Remus' secret.
