I also like jealous Lily. Jealous James appears more frequently, so it's nice to see the tables turned. :)

[FIC; PG-13] Stalking at teatime, by MartheMaria marthemaria March 28 2011, 21:10:20 UTC
Title: Stalking at teatime.
Author/Artist: MartheMaria
Rating & Warnings: PG-13 for a little swearing.
Summary: James does a little stalking during the Valentine’s Hogsmeade weekend.

Okay, my first drabble ever - and now I remember why! I have issues with limited wordcounts and I had to delete half of the original drabble. I hope you’ll enjoy it anyway.

James watched as his date ran out of the crowded, cherub-filled teashop. He was nothing short of the world’s biggest git.
‘Here you go, the first date set. Enjoy.’
He looked up at Madam Puddifoot whose disapproving gaze confirmed his own conclusion.

Yes, he truly was an ass.

It was pathetic, James thought, as he stared longingly at the couple a few tables away. He was pathetic, but then again, this was the closest he’d ever gotten to dating Lily Evans. Literally. He had promised his date, Vanessa Blye, a good time at Hogsmeade; and, incidentally, ‘a good time’ meant leaving right after Lily and Jason, accidentally visiting every shop they went to and even following them into ( ... )

Applause for first drabbles! Isn't it so sad when you realise you're at 600 words and not even halfway through? Well, you managed to cut it down very nicely! Poor Vanessa and Jason are just casualties in a great love story. So cute! =)

[Fic; PG13] The Substitute, by cheers88 cheers88 March 29 2011, 01:15:02 UTC
Title: The Substitute
Author/Artist: cheers88
Team: N/A
Rating & Warnings: PG-13-suggestive sexual references
Summary: Not every date at Puddifoot’s is romantic.

“Evans, do y’ reckon you might start to at least pretend you’re having a brill time? Would it help if I showed you what these trousers do for my bum?”

The boy began to stand, but Lily effectively halted his movements with a quick draw of her wand.

“Bloody hell, woman-it was a suggestion.”

“May I make a suggestion?” She tried to contain her smirk.

“Certainly, date.”

“Might you stop ogling Penelope Sloper’s breasts? I can assure that if you take a break to look me in the eyes now and again, they’ll still be there when you go back.”

“Gudgeon keeps obstructing my view! Don’t know what she sees in the ponce-spilled hot chocolate on his shirt twice and nearly wet himself when she reached round for the sugar.”

“Sirius, you nearly wet yourself when she reached for the sugar ( ... )

Oh, I wish I could favorite this or something. I really, really enjoyed it. Loved the way you characterized Sirius here, especially the bit about the trousers, and also Lily's jealousy over the cauldrons (whether she was being serious or not) made me laugh. Awesome drab!

Thank you! I really enjoyed yours, as well. The 6th year snapshots always leave me wanting more + I've always liked to think that even though they didn't get together til 7th, Lily developed feelings a bit earlier on :)

Re: [Fic; PG13] The Substitute, by cheers88 perilousgard March 31 2011, 01:44:45 UTC
Of course. Because you know she undoubtedly spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to convince herself that she didn't have feelings for him. :)

DOE - [FIC; PG] Not Conducive For Stalking, by klose klose March 29 2011, 05:47:31 UTC
Title: Not Conducive For Stalking
Author: klose
Team: DOE!
Rating & Warnings: None.
Summary: Puddifoot's, tea & pastries, and a conversation.

"Goodness, has Gyrffindor's star Chaser been ditched on a date?"

"As if. And I wouldn't call it a date, really. Elaine wanted to make Davies jealous, and you know, she's a friend and a damn fine Qudditch team-mate, so I figured I'd help her out."

"I'm sure the pastries and the no-strings-snogging were a bonus."

"Are you jealous?"

"Since your date went off to hump Mark Davies at the back of the shop, not really, no."

"Damn, woman! I do not need that mental image when I'm drinking my tea ( ... )

Aw, this was cute, Y! ♥ the reference to Persephone. Imagine Lily and James doomed to Pudifoot's forever... Oh dear.

Loved: "Always, Evans. Always"

SQUEEE. I love all dialogue drabbles ♥ And I'm a sucker for Greek myth references, so yeah, this is quality.

'If I eat it, will I be doomed to stay in Puddifoot's forever?'
Like she'd mind if James were to stay there with her - I know I wouldn't ;D Anyway, nice drabble. I especially like the ending.

STAG [Fic; G] Off on the Wrong Note by Zia Montrose zia_montrose April 1 2011, 05:19:18 UTC
Title: Off on the Wrong Note
Author/Artist: zia_montrose 
Team: Stag
Rating & Warnings: G; none
Summary: The first time James asks Lily out doesn't go exactly as planned.

The flyer had been thrust in his hand two days ago by a freckle-faced boy distributing an entire stack of them in the hall between classes: Madam Puddifoot’s Valentine’s Specials. James had cracked a joke right along with Sirius about the Lovebird Menu before stashing it in his knapsack and continuing on his way.

But later that night, arms tucked behind his head, gazing up at the canopy of his four-poster, Lily Evans came to mind-again. Their relationship had always been contentious and adversarial ever since that first train ride. And for a few years he’d liked it that way…

Until the pangs started.

Now he found himself flicking open the cover of his text for the third time, glancing at the flyer again.

Lily was seated two rows up and one seat right, red hair spilling across the back of her school robes, preventing his brain from concentrating on anything else. Meanwhile, ( ... )

I liked this! It was really unique, and I like that James never quite got up the courage to ask her out for real. :)

Oh, thank you! This prompt was a little tricky. (<--I'll probably be saying that about all of them, ha. ; ) I tried restarting it on a different theme, but decided to go with my original premise. Glad it worked.

Will you be drabbling for this one? It looks like you haven't submitted yet. : )

I fully plan on drabbling... but my creative juices seem to not flowing. I'm kicking my muse... or pleading for my muse to return... or something
