    Summary

    The last thing Lily Potter remembers is a flash of green light as she futilely attempts to protect her son from Lord Voldemort. The next thing she knows, she's waking up in her cruel and bitter older sister's house -- in her son's body. With no knowledge of the current time period and no understanding of what sort of magical anomaly caused her dilemma, she must find answers and allies, all while trying to transform her son's life into something more tolerable for when he returns.

    Summary

    Part One (OotP) 120k words.

    Her remains exhumed as part of Voldemort's grotesque resurrection ritual, Lily Potter is inadvertently brought back to life by unknown magic. She is twenty-one, a widow, and mother to a rebellious teenage boy. Bafflingly, her ex-best friend, Severus Snape, is said to have worked tirelessly to protect her son over the years, yet wants nothing to do with her. For his part, Harry Potter, at first overjoyed to have his mother back alive, begins to chafe under her authority and worry she has feelings for the teacher he so despises.

    Part Two (HBP + DH) In progress.

    After a dramatic summer, Harry vows to focus on Dumbledore’s lessons, not his mother’s love life. Try as he might, he cannot ignore Snape’s increasingly suspicious behavior: covering for Malfoy, pathetically fawning over Lily, and pretending he doesn’t hate Harry. Lily throws herself into teaching and recruitment efforts but frets over Severus and his refusal to disclose the details of the burden Dumbledore has placed on his shoulders.

    Summary

    “What’s going to happen?” Peter whispers softly to his mother once they are alone again.

    Mary cups the boy’s face in her hands. For ten years she was able to keep her son away from the life of criminals and psychopaths. After she fled, Tony put in a rule that all hospitals must keep children in custody until a DNA test is completed. There was no way Mary could sneak Peter out.

    “He is going to come. I’m sure he will have a few Avengers with him. They will probably separate us.”

    Peter grabs her hands, “I won’t let them do that.”

    “Peter” Mary leans forward, placing her forehead on his. “Do not fight him. We are both going to do what he instructs. That is the only way to get through this. I…I’m sure he won’t allow us to see each other for a long time. Definitely not until he thinks we are compliant. If we just do what he wants, the sooner we will see each other again. Do you understand?”
    The thirteen-year-old nods his head, again allowing tears to flow. “I love you mom.”

    “I love you too.”

    The sound of the door opening causes the duo to freeze. Mary’s blood feels like ice when she hears an all too familiar voice taunt “Daddy’s home.”

    Summary

    My dearest readers,

    Have you missed me? Of course you have. My deepest apologies for the lengthy absence, — but I promise, it was for good reason. You see, I’ve been working on something rather big. Monumental, even. The kind of revelation that makes you gasp over your morning tea. And I decided you, my most devoted Prophet subscribers, deserved to hear it first. So, each week, right here in my column, I’ll share exclusive pieces of my newest serial: Yours, Always — Lily

    You read correctly. Lily. As in Potter. This serial is drawn from letters written between two tragic lovers who risked everything for family. It's a story of love & sacrifice that will captivate, entrance, & — dare I say — break your heart. The best part? It's all true.

    You think you know the story? Well readers — here’s where you’ll want to lean in — this is not the story of Lily and James.

    I, your humble reporter Rita Skeeter, bring to you:

    "Yours, Always

    — Lily"

     

    In a world steeped with light/dark and blood politics, Veela heritage, and magically powerful cores, Rita Skeeter releases secret letters between Snape and Lily in the Prophet during the golden trios 6th year. What happens next?
