Order Of The Phoenix
Lily Rose Potter
PERSONALITY Boggart: The entire family and those closest to me, dead. It's my worst fear, and knowing that I was the cause of their demise. Mirror of Erised: I'd see James, with our family and friends celebrating the birth of our first child, of good memories. Patronus: Doe-The happiest memory I have, is the day that James Potter asked me to be his wife. And the animal that comes to mind is a doe. A sense of peace and calm. It's the one creature that my father always taught me to look out for. From the moment I was born, my mother deemed that I was special. She always said that I had a knack of doing the right thing even when knowing what the right thing is, isn't always so easy. I'm honest, I'm not going to apologize for that. If someone asks an opinion, I'm not going to sugar coat it, and say what others want me to say, simply because it's easier to say. I've cared and put effort into everything that I do. I'm loyal, if I'm you are my friend, I'll have your back til the end. I'm smart, not just when it comes to books, but that is my specialty. I'm patient, one has to be given I've had to explain things to others that they didn't quite grasp when I did. Loving, ever since I was a child, my mother has always said that I had a loving spirit. I always wanted to see the best in others, and to love them even when they were hard to love. Independent, even though there were times where help was needed in my earliest years, I strive to do things on my own as I wasn't happy if someone had to do something for me because I couldn't do it myself. Lost, I tend to get lost in thought, particularly if there's a lot on my mind. Listening, if anyone has anything they wish to share, I'm good at listening. I won't interrupt and I'll keep whatever secrets you have. Resourceful, something that my father would say. I've always been able to come up with a solution to any problem that comes to mind, no matter how the problems arise. Some of my down sides, are that I'm stubborn and hard-headed as once I make up my mind that's usually it. There's no changing it. I've come across as rash as when I do make a decision I usually act quickly. Don't even dare try to tell me what to do, as I am argumentative, ask my sister. I also am very defensive when it comes to standing up to what I believe to be right. I do forgive certain things though that does not mean that I forget. HISTORY Mother: Patricia Evans, fifty, None, Muggle Father: Victor Evans, Fifty two, None, Muggle. Siblings: Petunia Dursley, 22, none, Muggle Partners: James Potter, 19, Gryffindor, Pureblood. Others: Remus Lupin (19, Gryffindor, halfblood), Sirius Black (pureblood, 19, Gryffindor), Peter Pettigrew (halfblood, Gryffindor) My name is Lily Rose Potter Nee Evans. I'm the daughter of Victor and Patricia Evans. I've got an older sister by three years, and her name is Petunia June Evans. For the first five years of my life, it was peaceful. My sister and I got along great. We did things that two ordinary little girls would. We kept each other's secrets. Helped our mother in the kitchen and played jokes on our father. It was all in good fun of course. My mother taught us recipes that were handed down from both my maternal and paternal family members. Things were the same way up until I was nine. I'd always imagined doing things, but then one day I'd walked into the park. One not too far from where I lived, but anyway my sister found me. I hadn't even been in the park long when she had come to find me. See I'd conjured this flower in my hand, and I didn't know how, or why. It was during that brief moment that a boy came out of nowhere. My sister quickly left, I assumed it was because she didn't trust him. He spoke to me. Telling me how my sister was jealous and that his name was Severus. He then proceeded to tell me exactly what was happening. How I was a witch, and that he, was a wizard. That I was different from my big sister. Something of which I didn't understand when we both had the same parents. He explained that my sister was a muggle, which meant non magical. But my parents didn't have magic so why did I? Through the explanations he reiterated how muggles were non magical folk and that for those like me, we'd be able to attend a special school called Hogwarts. It was somewhere where we would go when we turned eleven. I was curious. The relationship that I had with my sister was tense at best. It only got more strained the closer that I got with Severus. I hated it. I hated what it was doing to us. How could I choose between my sister and new best friend? I was hurt of course that my relationship with Tuney was suffering because of magic. Because of our differences. We used to go everywhere together, but not anymore. It was more like I didn't exist anymore. Even when I tried to explain that I didn't know how it worked, or why I had it. She didn't care. It was so hard for us to even sit at the kitchen table with our parents at the same time. Shortly after my eleventh birthday, I received a visit from an individual from the school that Severus had always talked about. It wasn't just me they spoke to but my parents as well. They personally handed me a letter that stated that I was accepted. I couldn't believe that this was real, that what Severus had stated was true. But, the look on my big sister's face was heartbreaking. It was like watching the light leave someone's eyes. In the days that followed, my sister worked tirelessly trying to write the perfect letter to the Headmaster to the school. While the Headmaster, did respond, and his response was kind, it wasn't what either my sister or I wanted to hear. It made our fragile relationship deteriorate even more. It also made the first day of September that year both brilliant and painful. I hadn't been able to sleep, even though I was prepared thanks to going with Severus and his mother to collect school supplies a short while beforehand. I'd been nervous, but at the same time I'd promised my parents that I'd write. Now, my sister refused to accompany us, to see me off. My sister and I hadn't left things on good terms. Her saying that I was a freak didn't help. Heartbroken though I was, my once life-line wasn't there anymore. It was crushing. Though I will never forget the first moment that the train departed from King's Cross. How the train ventured across the terrain, and the beautiful scenery. Pulling up to the front of what would easily be called Hogwarts, I was exciting. The scenery surrounding the castle, one might believe came right out of a fairy tale book. Pure joy was all that I felt then and there. I was in the same train compartment as Severus. After getting off of the train we would walk next to one another, going straight to the boats. Going up to the castle, it was enchanting. I looked forward to what was to come. Entering the castle, I was amazed. It was like everything I had ever dreamed of it being and so much more. Standing there next to Severus, I hoped and prayed that we wouldn't be separated, given the fact that he was the only one I knew. Of course, there were others I'd seen on the train but, it wasn't the same. One by one, a woman called out names until it reached mine. "Evans, Lily." I remember the moment my name was called. Walking up to this little stool next to where this woman was. Sitting there briefly as this "sorting hat" was placed upon my head. It deliberated, unsure whether to place me in Ravenclaw or Slytherin. Ultimately it settled on Gryffindor. I soon joined my house. Classes were good, challenging but good. I missed home, and my family, but I managed. The first few letters from home made me homesick. My first year, seemed to happen like a blur. I was enjoying my classes and even got used to the food. I enjoyed Severus' company despite the fact that we were in different houses. Him being in Slytherin and me, in Gryffindor. Sure it put a distance in our friendship. Still we were closer than anyone could have imagined. I often found myself running into a certain lot. Four boys in my year, and in my house that liked to pick on Severus. Now, I didn't see it every time that they went after him but I did see a few occasions. These boys; James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter, were difficult. You see both Sirius and James were the main ones that liked to antagonize Severus, I saw them do things more than the other two. I defended Severus when I saw it happen. I just didn't want to see him hurt. Besides us not being in the same house, we spent every chance we could hanging out. Any and all chance we could. Our bond was strong but I didn't know how strung it would remain. Though I was grateful we had each other. Two through fourth year nothing major happened. Just went through the same classes. Studied, hung out with friends, and hoped for the best. O.W.L.S. would be coming up in fifth year. I also learned towards the end of fourth year that I was made Prefect. It would be the first step on the next part of my journey to hopefully be head-girl. After the summer of my fourth year I was excited for a new adventure. Severus had kept his distance from me that summer and I didn't know why. I knew going into fifth year that there would be challenges that I'd face that I had never been through before. I had to make sure that others upheld the rules, which was incredibly difficult with Mr. Potter and company. Especially since they had never listened to me before, so why would they now? You never know how much someone means to you, until you realize that you don't mean as much to them. This happened during my fifth year. One day, I noticed that Mr. Potter and and Mr. Black, that they weren't alone. They, and their two friends, Mr. Pettigrew and Mr. Lupin were right beside them. How they chose to humiliate my old friend, Severus, in the worst possible manner. I'd walked up to the crowd, and I knew immediately that Severus was being hexed. It wasn't just what they did to him that bothered me. I wanted them to leave him alone. Not that he listened. And then the worst hit. I could only hear Severus' words. "A filthy little mudblood." It hurt bad enough hearing it from others but from him? It was despicable. Before I knew it, I was in seventh year. Oh how difficult the previous year had been. I'd hoped for this one to be better. And so it was. All thanks to one individual in question. Mr. James Potter. I don't know what caused the change so to speak, but there was one. I'd already gone through two years as a Prefect, and so by seventh year I was excited to be Head Girl, something that Professor Dumbledore chose for me. What shocked me most, wasn't that I got it, but whom he picked for my partner. Remus Lupin had been the Prefect with me for the past two years. Yet, I was stunned to learn that it was James. Over the course of the year, he showed me how much he changed. Despite everything, of my initial fear, I fell in love with him. We dated all throughout our last year at Hogwarts. We married not long after graduation, with Sirius as James' best man. This wasn't the only change as we also joined our old Professor as members of the secret society of the Order of the Phoenix. To stop Voldemort and his death eaters, whom were persecuting those like myself for just being like us. For being muggle-borns. I was heartbroken only in the fact my family wasn't there. As by that point my parents had passed on, and Tuney and her fiancee, Vernon, refused to be there. Now, two years later, at nineteen James and I are in the middle of a war and about to welcome our first child. Not in the way I want it. I fear for him, our family, and this baby. I have to protect them all. OOC Play By: Karen Gillan Your Alias: Lily Pronouns: Her/she Age: 22 Other Characters: None Where did you find us: Don't remember the site |
