fic: Lily Waits

Mar 19, 2009 22:23

title: Lily Waits
characters/pairings: Remus/Sirius, James/Lily, Peter Pettigrew, Andromeda Tonks, Voldemort
summary: this is a remix of latenightcuppa's fic, found here, which is a remix of planetgal471' fic, found here. It is not so much a remix of the story as a remix of the angst. I enjoyed both planetgal471's portrayal of post-Azkaban Sirius and latenightcuppa's portrayal of November 1981 ( Read more... )

Okay, so Sam linked me to this and it is wonderful! *sob* I've actually never considered the possibility that Lily may have 'known', though it makes perfect sense in this story, and ugh, a;klad;skl Peter... :( You explored this from all angles really well, and the line about Lily needing a muffiliato spell on her orgasms? ROFL.

"Potter, last try," hisses The Dark Lord. "Give me the child and you and your Mudblood are safe."

"No," says James, simply. "I'd rather die."

"So be it," he says, and Lily realizes James is dead."

I think the speed in which that happens and she moves on is sort of brilliant, but I don't know how to explain why. It's just such a big event, and there is no time to let it register. That's so incredibly sad.

You and your angst...damn...

In the end she had agreed, because with Peter in the room, she could never voice her fears.

Wow. I...yeah.

Oh, this was wonderful. So very powerful and emotional!

This was so well-constructed emotionally, such a great journey through those final weeks and moments. I'm sure you had much of this in your head already? I really enjoyed it. I probably don't have to tell you that I think your Lily is unparalleled. I do wish I could climb further inside her head, even. If you ever want to take us there, feel free! I'm happy to come along.
