fic: Lily Waits

[liliesonmars]

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

Okay, you guys need to stop remixing now because all of them ARE SO AMAZING. And I'm having a hard time choosing my favorite. ♥

This was so...very, very Lily. And James was hardly annoying at all, so that was a plus. And I love how Lily always knew it wasn't Remus, and...I just loved it, okay?

In a moment, The Dark Lord will offer to spare her for the baby. He will tell her that she can come with him, find love again, have other children. She will spit at his feet and tell her that he murdered her love and that she'll be damned if she'll surrender to him, to the cause, to fate. He'll smile coldly, shrug as if to say "You chose this," and chant the killing curse. She will step in between the curse and Harry, and it will all be over.

That was beautiful - so sad - but beautiful. I like reading this from Lily's POV instead of one of the Marauders. Lovely job!

I have never in my life been so touched by such a short story, there are actual tears welling in my eyes. This was incredible, such a terribly realistic look at those last miserable moments.

The Sirius/Lily conversation was excellent, poor poor Sirius and poor, poor Remus. And the idea that James opened the door for them was too brilliant--it says so much about his character and I really, really believe that's what he did, now that you've presented the idea. Bravo!!
