Hi Jules How Are You Today? I Was Just Wondering What Lead Sam, Potentially Carlotta And The Marauders

Hi Jules how are you today? I was just wondering what lead Sam, potentially Carlotta and the Marauders to work out that Lily had started to like James? Can't wait for chapter 34 :)

I am quite well, thank you. =)

Sam was led to believe that Lily liked James through the whole Ministry debacle. James had already been with Sam at the Ministry, but he left to go fetch Lily (and Marlene). So Sam kind of assumed that James liked Lily, which he already knew from past experience (Lily = “The Ginger”). So then Lily shows up, and she’s not exactly stand-off-ish with James, and boys always assume that if a girl is nice to a guy she likes him anyway, so the flirtation there just fueled that fire.

Sirius- Sirius finds it unfathomable that anyone could not love his best friend, and now that Lily doesn’t hate James, Sirius rather assumes that she must like him. Of course, Sirius also probably always thought that Lily secretly liked James, now that they’re on good terms more than ever.

Remus (and to some degree Peter) probably guess because of the Ministry thing as well. But Remus also was there to see Lily so upset about basically abandoning James in Chapter… 9? Was that 9? The one that starts at the end and goes back? Ya I think that’s Chapter 9. So Remus might have begun to suspect that Lily might slightly like James way back then. And, all of the other Marauders read the almost-kiss like all you guys did: that Lily liked James (meaning James was just about the only one who interpreted it the other way). So, that, combined with the mild flirtation of Chapters 28 and 29 sort of made them believe that Lily likes James.

Carlotta: I don’t really want to give anything away, because it’s only really been hinted that Carlotta does believe that Lily likes James. But, I will say that it’s not unheard of for an individual to believe that other people secretly want his/her significant other, with or without justification.

Marauders, who do you prefer -Lily or Carlotta? And why?

James: Carlotta’s my girlfriend.

Sirius: Evans. She’s not a traitorous, best-mate stealer.

Remus: Lily and I are much closer, of course.

Peter: Carlotta’s fitter, but Lily’s much nicer. And she smells nicer, too.

Happy Birthday to Harry Potter’s “Remus John Lupin” David Thewlis! 🎂 (b. March 20, 1963)

Lily what were your opinions on the fedora wearers (hot or not?)

Generally, quite attractive.

Jules, you're just the best! Thank you so much for all of this, I love reading your answers. :DAlso, I have a question for you, with which character do you relate the most? Or who do you think that you're the most alike. Kisses.

I think I’m most like Marlene, Lily, and–to be honest–James. But there’s a lot of me in all the characters (I gave Mary my fatal flaw: an excessive love of eye-liner; Carlotta, Donna, Adam, all take aspects of my personality and attitude, too). 

But Marlene and Lily are really the ones I have the most in common with, with regards to their flaws and insecurities, which is probably the most substantial connection, and the James/Sirius relationship is eerily similar between my best friend and mine’s. That’s funny, because guy relationships are pretty different from girl relationships, but my best friend and I aren’t always very… feminine. Anyway, I’m definitely the James of our bromance, so I identify with him. 

Hey Shelley, of she dumped James would you be friend with Carlotta again ?Do you miss her sometimes ? even a little ?

I wouldn’t be friends with her if it was a choice between Carlotta and the giant squid.

And whenever I feel like missing her, I remember that everything about our friendship was a lie, and she only liked me because she thought she could boss me around.
