Pairings: James Potter I/Lily Evans (Harry Potter)
A new school year at Hogwarts is starting for the Golden Quartet, and it doesn't look good.
As the Marauders try to pick up the pieces of a damaged friendship and Harry struggles to get used to a new family and a new identity, Neville has to deal with his resentment for a role in the wizarding world that wasn't supposed to be his and discovers that maybe there's a reason if he belongs in Slytherin.
Meanwhile something obscure is crawling, menacing the safety of the students inside the castle...

one day, james potter has the absolute brilliant idea of leaving a positive, affirmative, and absolutely anonymous note on the office bulletinboard for lily evans, the woman he's been in love with since, well, forever. the thing is - he didn't address it and before he can come to terms to the fact that he did that and that the idea might not have been so brilliant after all, his coworkers and friends catch on and are determined to figure out who send it and who it was for. and so james pretends that he doesn't have a clue. but then more notes start to appear, notes that he didn't write, and thus it gets more complicated than he ever thought it would get. oops?

CrimsonQuill's Gift It Challenge: For Felpata_Lupin because she loves Remus and want her to know he had a few happy Christmases.
He only wished Harry was there. They had left on bad terms, but it did make him rethink things. If it weren’t for him, the three of them would be more than miserable right now. Thanks to Harry, he watched his beautiful wife open another present on her small tummy and fussed over a bright green onesie.
It reminded him of that Christmas long ago he’d forced himself not to think about. It was too painful. Now, for the first time in ages, it made him smile.

He looked up as she approached, his smile widening, the lines around his eyes crinkling behind his glasses. He raised his glass as if in a toast, and asked, “To what do I owe the pleasure, Evans?”
Ignoring the curious looks of his friends, she said, “Actually, there’s something I need to talk to you about. In private.”
That didn’t sound too bad, did it? Not necessarily personal. It could’ve been about Head Student responsibilities. It could’ve been about anything.
