Summary
“Yes. I think it matters.” James is shocked at how soft his own voice is, but even more so at the pause in her footsteps. They’re quiet for a second, and then he hears them approaching.
“Why?” She asks, slowly, slowly walking back towards him, rejoining him at the wall. “Two more years at this place and nobody will care how many O.W.L.s we got last year or who was a prefect or Quidditch captain. Voldemort won’t care. This,” she gestures at the air around her, “won’t mean anything when we leave here.”
“But it means something now, doesn’t it?”
–
It is sixth year and everything has changed, everything is changing, nothing is the same, nothing is different at all.
This is a story of love and of loss (like every story that has ever been told), and of growing pains and growing up. Lily Evans, James Potter, Sirius Black, new friendships forged and old ones not forgotten, alone and not alone with their changing minds, falling in love and falling into place when the walls are falling down around them, everything is falling out from under them.
OR
A long form, slow burn, canon compliant tale of Lily Evans and James Potter, and all the people they love, have loved, have lost.

Summary
Lily, as the respectable Gryffindor Prefect, had to mentor James Potter in the Hospital Wing for a week because Remus’ ‘sick week’ and Potter’s quidditch accident overlapped together.
or
James cracked tf outta his skull and heard LETSSS FUCKING GOOOO
OR
How much "mentoring" would it take for two soulmates to realize that maybe their relationship doesn't need to consist of unrequited fantasies or continuous annoyance rituals? Mentoring James Potter will be the first time Lily Evans spends more than five minutes alone with him—without fifteen classmates muffling the sounds of Potter's relentless pursuit and Lily's biting answers.
Who knows whether one week is enough? Not James Potter — though he certainly hopes so.

She would. She isn't going to. That's its own problem because Lily Evans wants to make it on her own in a world that is determined to not have her.

Summary
Evans,
read the letter before you throw it away, will you?So, here's the thing, I've been instructed to invite you as Head Girl to the anual Potter Christmas Ball. My mum likes to give the seventh year students of the highest potential an in into politics and future job offers and what-not at this thing. It's on the twenty-seventh. Black tie. Pretentious pureblood nonsense. There will probably be old wizards discussing legislations and laws while drinking things that cost more then Sirius's life savings. It'll be boring and pretentious.
You should come anyways.
You can Floo in if you decide to come. Details enclosed. If not, enjoy the rest of your holidays!

Summary
“You know I’m mad about you,” I said, my voice textured. “I—fuck, Evans, I know it’s obvious. It's bloody obvious. I want to go out with you. I want you to go out with me.”
After a long pause, in which I sucked in and then licked my lips, but she still hadn't said anything, I urged in a quieter tone, “Go on… go out with me.”Hogwarts fic - James Potter POV where he's an asshole, but disastrously and completely head-over-heels in love with Lily Evans.

Summary
"Lily had been interested in someone it was safe to want, because he would not want her back, and then she would not have to consider what it meant to be more than interested, and rearrange the nice little building blocks of her life for someone who could well be a wrecking ball if he wished to."
No matter how many times Lily sees James at a wedding, she can’t get used to it.

Summary
Lily Evans wants to be the subject of Schumann’s Papillons, dreamy and ethereal. She wants to let herself bloom like the flowers in this early spring, resilient despite the frost that clings to their petals each night. She wants to live, forget, and relinquish all that she left behind in 1978 — and may just do so, when she sees (rather, hears) James Potter for the first time.
Or, the one where Lily is tired of keeping herself from what she wants, and James is the (infuriating, glorious) new student in Professor McGonagall’s piano studio who is more than happy to indulge her.

Another "reading the books" fanfic to this world in the Marauders Era. Sticking with canon, but also changing a thing or two from fanon as we do not have all the information from some characters.

Summary
Six years ago an owl with Lily Evans’ Hogwarts letter was sent—six years ago, that owl never made it. Until now. Following a great tragedy, with nowhere else to go, Muggle-raised Lily Evans has no other choice but to accept her identity as a witch and enroll at Hogwarts as a seventh-year.
Six years ago, James Potter started at Hogwarts—with just one year left, he already has his future figured out: move-in with his mates, help stop the Blood War, win the Quidditch cup.
But the moment he lays eyes on Lily Evans, everything changes.
A beautiful mystery tangled in a hidden destiny that threatens to break them both—as long as it doesn’t tear down the rest of the world first.

Summary
Regulus knows James Potter. The kind of music he likes, what he does in his free time, every single detail he can absorb.
James does not know him.
Sirius has made sure of that, keeping his mentally unwell brother far away from the object of his obsession. Funnily enough, it's James who comes to Regulus. Well-meaning, curious with no idea what he's getting into.
The lines between love and obsession are blurry and hard to read.
“No, we’re friends now, remember? I know it hasn’t been long, but I think I’m learning you, aren’t I?”
Are you?
James had Regulus, but he didn’t know him. Regulus knew James but didn’t have him.
“Maybe you could,” was all Regulus could say in response. That was a truth. James could probably learn Regulus inside and out. Regulus would offer that if it didn’t mean breaking down the fixation—the rotting truth behind their growing relationship.
