Heyy,
do you have any fic recs where Harry repairs his parents house in Godric's Hollow or lives in it, etc ?
I think I have read maybe two fics where they talk about that house for more than 5 seconds
Thank youuuu 🤍
Hi anon! I think I’ve read more but here are some recs off the top of my head:
a foundation on which to build by beyondtheclose (T, 19k)
When Harry returns to Godric’s Hollow, intent on fixing his parents’ old house and maybe finding somewhere that feels like a home, he discovers an old journal inscribed Property of Elliot Evans Potter and learns that his dad was trans. “Lily Potter” didn’t exist.
Harry Potter and The Bisexual Awakening by Writcraft (E, 23k)
Harry is perfectly content being single, heterosexual and living in Godric's Hollow with his very clingy rescue dog, Snitch. When Draco Malfoy turns up on Harry's doorstep demanding that Harry teach him how to drive, things quickly become a lot more complicated.
Aere Perennius by onbeinganangel (M, 25k)
Upon Narcissa’s death, Draco Malfoy lets his best mate decide on a new place for him to live and set up his flower shop. Pansy, the meddling witch that she is, picks Godric’s Hollow. Specifically, the oh-so-conveniently available space next to Harry Potter’s bookshop. What could possibly go wrong?

James: *6 months till he goes to hogwarts* Mum!! I don't know if I want to wear shorts or trousers when I go to Hogwarts!! I think I'm having a midlife crisis! Effie:*Teasing him light heartedly* Oh don't be silly James! You're ten, you cant be having a midlife crisis, I bet 10 years from now you'll know things that are way worse than not knowing what to wear on your bottom half! James: *Ten years later, laying, dead in the ruins of a home that was bursting with happiness mere hours before*

I'm growing tired and I'm growing old
And the road I walk, I walk alone
And I wonder if, and I think I might
Take a look, take a look on the other side

I think as a fandom we are not showing enough respect to Bathilda Bagshot. I mean if she didn't think the boys would get on well with eachother and forced them to meet, they probably wouldn't have met.
So Bathilda, thank you. Your work is appreciated. We love you.

you said james changed but did he? no apology in sight... still tricking lily and going behind her back to hex snape.. leaving his wife and newborn alone in their secret hiding spot to mess with muggles..
genuinely lol what is this 'leaving their hiding spot to mess with muggles' thing, I think you're the second anon who has claimed something like that recently and it's like.... where lmao. when did that happen? who r these muggles? 😭
if you're referring to the prequel, that was almost certainly, like 100% certainly, before harry was born when lily and james were fighting for the Order along with the rest of the Marauders and not in hiding. This is what Lily says, years later, in her letter to Sirius:
James is getting a bit frustrated shut up here, he tries not to show it but I can tell -- also, Dumbledore's still got his Invisibility Cloak, so no chance of little excursions. If you could visit, it would cheer him up so much.
doesn't that imply he wasn't sneaking out? and if he had left the hiding spot in the past it was "little excursions" with Lily's full knowledge and approval, with the safety of the cloak. I don't see the big deal, and it's possible that Lily was leaving the house on occasion too when they had the cloak.
people are so determined to see things in the worst possible light it's kind of funny. It's not enough that James was a dickhead and a bully in canon, he has to be this insidious abusive master manipulator guy who somehow conned Lily "you make me SICK" Evans into marrying her and having a kid with him. Like, no offence but it's just not that deep.
We don't see how he changed because the story isn't about him, it's about his son, but there's plenty of evidence that he did, a BIG example being that a girl who couldn't stand the sight of him and was extremely vocal about the fact ended up marrying him. Something changed, and it's just highly unlikely that James, a fictional character, constructed an elaborate ruse behind the scenes that we see no evidence for to trick Lily, and every other character, into thinking he was an entirely different person. If that had been the author's intent for these characters who, btw, do not exist outside the text we're given, there would be proof of it. Rather, we're given evidence he 'deflated his head' and that lily fell in love with him and that they were happy together.
I've already said it but I don't think James not telling her about fighting with Snape (who, let it be said, at that point was also instigating) is a good thing. Obviously. It's dishonest and he should have told her. But I also think a likely reason he didn't tell her was not wanting to hurt her. That doesn't make it okay, but there can be problems and slip-ups and things to work through in a relationship without it being some big evil insidious manipulation.
Sev hid all sorts of things from her too, important things like "I'm thinking about joining the Death Eaters btw lol". People lie and hide things, especially teens. Maybe the simplest explanation here, rather than this weird jamespiracy thing, is that a seventeen year old boy was kind of shit sometimes but ultimately dedicated his life to protecting others, fought bravely in a war, grew tf up, and sacrificed himself to save his wife and child.
idk like to me it's not that deep, and it's continually bonkers to me that some snape fans will have wildly different standards for their innocent baby boy (idk him) than they do for every other character. bro did way worse stuff than not telling his gf he was getting into fights, james did worse stuff, and yet I still love them both and u wont convince me not to

@wolfstarmicrofic March 27 – prompt 27: Expecto Patronum – word count 670
Expecto Patronum - The Patronus Charm is a powerful projection of hope and happiness that drives away Dementors
A part of Remus knew it had been a bad idea, but that part had been drowning for the past hours in the alcohol, the hate for all the Christmas decorations everywhere, the cold, the ache of the second full moon the wolf spent desperately howling for his friends, only to tear himself apart when they failed to show up.
So that part was pretty quiet when he stopped in front of the tombstone, shivering from the cold.
“Hey Lils. Hey Prongs,” he slurred, raising the half-empty bottle to his friends’ names. “Merry Christmas.”
He took a swig and swayed on his feet. The cold was getting worse, but he didn’t care. After all, he had lost everything he had ever cared for. Maybe he could just lie down by Lily and James and fall asleep there and never wake up. He started shivering, and a movement in the corner of his eye made him turn around.
“Fuck,” he groaned.
Not far from him, a hooded figure was hovering by a tombstone rapidly covering in frost. He should have thought about that, really. The Wizarding World was still in such turmoil it was only logical a place so important like Lily and James’s tomb in Godric’s Hollow would be guarded by one of the Dementors Azkaban could spare. Even their son, wherever he was, must have some around.
“They’re my friends,” Remus whispered, his teeth chattering.
The Dementor glided forward and Remus stumbled back as the cold seeped into his bones and distant voices exploded in his head.
“Remus… Something awful has happened…”
The bottle fell from his hand.
“It’s not possible… Sirius wouldn’t…”
“I guess he lived up to his family name after all. I’m sorry Remus, I should have seen it coming.”
He knocked his back into James and Lily’s tombstone. The Dementor crept closer.
“Pete knew he couldn’t beat Sirius in a duel, it doesn’t make sense he went after him!”
“Grief makes us all act in ways we wouldn’t normally, Remus.”
He fumbled in his pocket, searching for his wand.
“I know I’m not his godfather or anything, but can I at least see him? For his parents’ sake.”
“He’ll be safer with his blood family, believe me. Pick up the pieces, Remus. Learn how to move on.”
Remus brandished his wand. He knew the spell and he knew he had been able to cast a fully-fledged Patronus, who ironically was in the shape of a wolf. But all that had been before. His hand trembled.
“I don’t even know if I have anything left you can take,” he whispered.
The Dementor didn’t stop advancing. If Remus was being honest with himself, it didn’t make sense. Dementors were guards, they had no business attacking someone who wasn’t doing any harm, but maybe it didn’t matter. It wouldn’t be worse than what he had lived through in the last weeks. Maybe it would even be better.
But as the Dementor glided even closer, the wolf reared up his head somewhere inside him, survival instinct kicking in. Images flooded Remus’s mind, of the Forbidden Forest and his friends galloping by his side, of the same friends by his bed when he woke up in the Hospital Wing, of smiles, and laughter, and hand holding and warmth, so much warmth…
“EXPECTO PATRONUM!”
He braced himself against the tombstone while the silver form leaped out of his wand and chased the Dementor across the graveyard until it disappeared somewhere. Remus exhaled. Apparently, he wouldn’t die that day. He looked up to his Patronus as it padded back to him and froze.
“No…” he breathed. “Please, no…”
He had read about what shock and grief could do to the spell, but nothing in those books had mentioned cruelty.
“No…” he repeated, his eyes filling with tears.
He let himself slide to the ground, his back pressed against the cold marble of his best friends’ tombstone. In front of him, glittering with the silver light of the spell, Padfoot wagged his tail.

Ever wondered this?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the Dumbledore family album(?) in the Deathly Hallows movie.
Question 1- First of all, what was it doing in Bathilda's home? Why???
_____
Tumblr media
(This is a dog right? If I am seeing correctly...)
Question 2- They had a Dog???? When? Why? Could it be an animagus or what?
_____
Tumblr media
Question 3- Who could this person be? And the people behind the 'dog' are Albus's parents?? No? If yes, then we missed the opportunity to see how they looked like!
_____
Tumblr media
Question 4- This is not the conventional photo we have always seen of the boys, is it? Or I am getting it wrong? Don't we deserve this one too? (Oh Merlin, they look sooo cute!!! I wanna kidnap them both XD)
Question 5- In the left hand side, there's a man sitting. Who is he? Gellert? Or someone else?
___ Please, if anyone would like to analyse?

It's the fact that Lily's death is what creates the horcrux in Harry that is really sick but also ironic. Her death is what creates the horcrux and it is also her death what protects him from Voldemort.

I've been thinking about it and I'm not quite sure if that's canonically possible but I think there was another option for Snape in regards to the prophecy and trying to save Lily's life.
I don't know if he hadn't thought about it or if he really didn't feel like he could do more about it but if he couldn't get you-know-who to spare her and couldn't get Dumbledore to protect her with certainty then the only logical option would be to go to Godric's Hollow on that night and give his own life. At least stand between Lily and Voldemort and try everything he personally could to protect her at this point. I don't know if it would've saved her life or Harry's but I have no doubt that he wouldn't have hesitated to give his life that night, so I don't know why he didn't. It is basically what he eventually did for Harry through the years anyways.
I don't know if you other Snape/ Harry Potter-fans out there think this would be a real possibility but I couldn't help but think about it. I'd love to hear other opinions on this though. 😊

;; godric's hollow
Tumblr media
                                  🪄🧙. Aquel verano estaba siendo fastidioso para Albus. Sabía que al fin podía ver a su familia. Pero anhelaba continuar con su vida. Después de todo el colegio, ya no tenía nada más que enseñarle. Pensaba estudiar algo más, si es que el Ministerio de Magia tenía mejores opciones. Sin embargo, aquella calma llegó cuando su madre le informó que quería presentarle a una persona nueva en el Valle de Godric. ¿A una chica? Seguramente. Nada que le interesara, la verdad. Sin embargo, fue la figura de un hombre quien le recibió. “Querido, él es Gellert, es sobrino de Batilda. Se quedará todo el verano, así que espero que puedas mostrarle el lugar,” anunció su madre con voz suave. Era evidente que el contrario ya se había ganado a su madre. ¿Tan carismático era? —Buenos días —saludó el de cabellos rizados, decantándose por la cortesía.

I'm so curious about the untitled farming (?) Jily WIP! Can you give us anything about it? Location? Short summary? Snippet? Anything. I'm willing to beg. Xxx
Ah yes Godric’s Hollow… still unsure if that will remain the title. It’s inspired by the game Stardew Valley.
Premise is this:
On his deathbed Grandad Henry bequeathed James the most precious gift he had to offer - his farm in sleepy little Godric’s Hollow. Sick of his desk job in the city James packs up everything he owns and decides that maybe the country life will be right for him. There’s just one slight hiccup- he doesn’t have the first clue how to run a farm. Good thing one of the locals is willing to take pity on him and help, so long as it means ousting the Riddle Corporation.

Since they pass on some of our TV Chanel during Christmas time, I've been rewatching some Harry Potter movies with my mother ( I don't support JKR at all, but I can't rob my mom of the fun let's be real) It's an enjoyable watch, and since I'm pretty familiar with the content, it made me think about an element.
Namely, Snape's flashback, when we see him cradle Lily after Voldemort's passage and subsequent murder spree in Godric's Hollow.
A human child (i.e. Harry) can't survive long without an adult or immediate care, which I believe might be exacerbated by the trauma of Lily's death and the Killing Curse.
That lead me to believe that once Severus let go of Lily's body, hand still trembling and sobs still stuck in his throat, he may have been the first one to pick up Harry, to cradle him close to his velvety robes, until the boy finished crying and fell asleep in exhaustion.
Snape, who uttered wandless healing incantation, with little to no result for the wound on the boy's forehead.
Snape, who in spite of the child being James', also knew the child was Lily's, and that she gave her life for him. Whispering an another unnreakable vow, this time not to the Headmaster, but to Harry, that while he'd never show it, he would watch over him.
Snape, who cradled the boy's head and held him close until Dumbledore and Hagrid arrived in Godric's Hollow, before letting go of Harry.
This little scenario could be pursued or hinted at in the third book, when Harry encounter the Dementors and hears his mother's scream, superimposed strangely with a deep, baritone sobbing...
