Lily and the Marauders accidentally time travel to Harry's third year. They discover things about themselves, and see truths that they would rather not face. Bonds are made, restored, and broken as they struggle to find a way back to where they belong.

Grief. It's a word which can consume you. Which can destroy you. Which can take over everything in life and make you feel like you're a walking zombie, better off dead. Sirius Black never truly knew how grief felt until the night of October 31st, 1981.

Remus returns to Hogwarts for the first time since he was seventeen. He will be a professor, but his memories of school are tainted by betrayal and death, and he must face a child who looks too much like James. No lesson could prepare him for this.

He was unimaginably, devastatingly shattered. He broke all ties, yet was unable to sever his attachment to her. She just wanted him as he was.

He told her they would be alright. He lied to her and himself over and over, because in a place so bereft of hope, lying is all you have.

Four men were bonded together as friends, and their code was a testament to that. They all broke the Marauder's code in very big ways, at different times for different reasons. This is the story of how and why.

Because Snape was a better man than he believed, and she always saw that.

A relationship that started with a note. "Maybe, maybe they're not coming," she muttered aloud. "Or maybe, maybe they sneaked up behind you," said a deep, male voice by her ear. She turned her head sharply, looking up. "Potter."

Petunia's last encounter with her sister. "Why can't you, for once in your life, just choose to be my sister?" "I am your sister," Lily responded quietly. Petunia shook her head. "You stopped being my sister the day you married him."

"Congrats, you've achieved a level of intelligence and deductive reasoning slightly above that of a vegetable," A bit of banter between Lily and James. In which many unfortunate but truthful things are blurted out.

James Potter is inside the mind of Lily Evans. You'd think this would be a bloke's dream, hearing the thoughts of the girl he fancies. But eavesdropping on Lily brings about trouble than bargained for. Loosely based on Inside the mind of Gideon Rayburn.
