For the [community profile] lands_of_magic 'tropetastic' challenge, we had to get inspiration from bookish tropes. I made 23 icons of characters who love to read from various fandoms (Beauty and the Beast, Gilmore Girls, Harry Potter, Pride & Prejudice) based on the character trope 'bookworm'.

Fandom: Harry Potter
Pairing/Characters: James/Lily, Remus/Sirius, Peter
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 2839
Summary: The tale of how Lily Evans finally gave him the time of day, as told by the one and only James Potter.

I really enjoyed this! I'm a sucker for obliviousness and James' bewilderment was so funny to me. Plus the background R/S was very sweet, and Sirius being judgey over James not getting it was also entertaining. :D

Love happily married Ron/Hermione. Hermione overworking and Ron taking her of her is an idea that I not only adore but also a situation I can see taking place in canon. Totally delightful.

Pining is one of my favorite tropes and this fic gave it to me in spades! Such a great depiction of Remus and Sirius's relationship and I enjoy the way they write them. The tension and build up were fun and definitely gave me some of those "JUST KISS ALREADY" moments. :D

The other fic I received from the [community profile] hurtcomfortex was a James/Lily one! I love those two, and while I haven't fic for them in a while, I was delighted to receive it!

Not a H/G fan but I'm looking forward to the Ron/Hermione scenes. :D
