definitely not werewolves
(james would dress up as a vampire and put on french fries as vampire teeth)
jo march really was like. i love the people around me and i cannot cope with them leaving and being mature and appealing enough to start new chapters in their lives while i'm still clinging into this idealised, carefree, comedy-like lifestyle i thought was gonna last forever. and i really thought platonic relationships could replace my repressed longing for a romantic one but now all my loved ones' first priorities became romance. meanwhile i cannot put myself out seeking a romantic relationship because that would automatically mean altering, belittleing, objectifying and compromising myself, my life would become a cliche with guaranteed unhappy ending because i feel like no one in this world could truly make me happy. and i do want to embrace my independent, single lifestyle but i guess i didnt calculate back then how lonely it's going to feel. it's like my only choice is between two types of unhappiness. jo march conveyed all this stuff and i'm not supposed to tear up just thinking about that goddamn movie???

james potter is the most loving and enthusiastic boyfriend possibly ever
seriously, he's so full on it's actually impressive
but it never gets annoying or overwhelming, no. it's always super endearing
you never feel unloved with him
super big on forehead or temple kisses; he just thinks they're super cute and convey his love for you extremely well
if you ever want to calm him down, press a kiss to his knuckles or cheek - it works like a charm every time
james' hair is extremely unruly - we all know this - so if you run your hands through it in an attempt to detangle it, he will melt on the spot
things that also make james melt on the spot include;
falling asleep on his shoulder
wearing his quidditch jersey, especially in the stands of his games if he has a spare
bringing him dinner if quidditch practice runs particularly late
just anything about you, really
he likes to have an arm around your shoulder when you walk down the corridors, or your hand in his
if you aren't too comfortable with pda, he's fine with linking pinkies or a soft kiss to the back of your hand every now and again
at the end of the day, he wants you to be as happy as possible
james constantly pushes up his glasses with his middle finger, so often in fact he does this even when he isn't wearing his glasses as a reflex
it just looks like he's flipping everyone off unprompted
you and sirius tease him a lot for this and stick your own middle finger up at him in return
it confuses him for at least a whole minute until he realises what he's done
"you've got to stop doing that, 's not fair" "all's fair in love and war, james"
he can get a little carried away at parties - especially if gryffindor wins the quidditch cup - but he'll sober up in an instance if you need him to
you're too tired/drunk and want to go to bed? suddenly he's stone cold sober and carrying you up the stairs to his dorm
he loves dancing with you though, and will try to keep you close to him all night to ensure you're safe and having fun
you'll twirl each other around, bounce around, fling your limbs in all directions, anything
james isn't the best dancer, okay
you are one of the only people who can get james to study
he'll decline going to the library with remus, but as soon as you ask him if he wants to go?
he's grabbing his books and rushing after you without a second thought
if you're the one who's against studying however, he goes full on mother mode
drags you to the library and insists you do your homework so you don't get a detention
speaking of - this boy is no stranger to detention, and definitely no stranger to sneaking you in whenever he can because he 'gets bored'
one time you get caught and mcgonagall simply can't understand why you willingly brought yourself to detention
wakes you up by peppering kisses all over your face, ignoring your complaints and protests
but if you try to wake him up? good luck
he'll wrap his arms around your waist and pull you into bed with him
he always insists you don't have to come to his early morning quidditch practices, but he's secretly over the moon when you drag yourself out of bed for them
goes all out for your birthday
i'm talking presents, a cake he somehow managed to get, making the whole great hall sing happy birthday to you at breakfast, and a small party/gathering of all of your friends
any chance he can take to show you he loves you, he will
james potter best boyfriend thank you <3
i luv this boy so much,, i just wanted to write some things for him okay, forgive me if they aren't the best/in character <3

Gorgeous gorgeous girls are anti romantics irl with a shelf full of romance books
this is so important to me actually?
"And sometimes I have kept my feelings to myself, because I could find no language to describe them in."
Sirius: Holy shit! Is that the ocean?!
James: Yeah, Pads, that's the ocean.
Sirius: What's on the other side of it?
Lily: Europe.
Sirius: How long would it take—
Remus: Do not fucking try and swim to Europe. Do not.
Remus: I realise I may not have the best habits
Sirius: you consume nothing but caffeine, sleep 3 hours a day, refuse to socialise with anybody, and then proceed to overwork yourself to the point of exhaustion.
Remus:
Remus: like I said, not the bEST—
JAMES HELPIMG READER WHEN THEY ARE DOWN OR STRESSED ABOUT WORK
I’m constantly thinking about this 👆🏻
You sat at your desk reading the notes in-front of you. You ran a hand through your hair because of how much stress you were under from school. That was when James walked into your dorm and saw you in distress.
“Darling? What’s wrong?” James asked you, crouching down beside you from where you were sitting. You turned to James with teary eyes.
“I’m gonna fail, Jamie. I can’t do this, I’m not smart enough,” you almost cried.
James wrapped you in his arms quickly, soothing your hair and whispering sweet nothings in your ear.
“You’re stressing my love, you need sleep okay? Let’s cuddle in bed, I got you,” he whispered.
James Potter giving you kisses on your cheeks and wrapping his arms around your waist. He whispers soft “I love you’s,” into your ear and the messy haired boy smells of oranges and cedar-wood
