Alice is getting married to Frank, and Lily, the Maid of Honor, enjoys the effects of the stag night on one James Potter: an undercut. (T for some language and self-indulgent snogging.)
Because sitting around solves nothing. Voldemort is in power as Lily enters her sixth year at Hogwarts. This is a story of how she learns to live, love and fight back.
She had always loved the stories of old. The love, the duty, the honor. He'd snort; tell her that storybooks were the victors' tales.
