amanda1212
Yay! Yet another fic that I get too look out for from you. I absolutley love the way you write. The way you write Lily and James just always grabs my attention. There seems to be nothing to critic or critise. I can't wait to read more. I will be checking back every day, no doubt!
ringette_rox27
Yes! Another James/Lily fan fic by Tara! I absolutley love your writing. Way better than I could ever do. You are an amazing writer and just make things so real in your head when you read. Great work! Aww poor James. Ah, well he'll get his chance soon.

hey! it's cool you write another fic! i like them! smile.gif

first chapter sounds good, i like the way the characters are, and though lily handed out detention for snoggind (*g*) i kinda understand her. -sounds like those two girls have always been nasty to them...

anyways, hope lily soon sees that james changed!
wink.gif carry on!
HPgoldsnitch
Yay, you started another fic!! happy.gif cool. I really like it so far. I like that James doesn't start out as a big jerk in the beginning either. You really write these Lily and James fics perfectly! Can't wait to read more... biggrin.gif

Of course I'll read this fic too! smile.gif It's good so far. Not better than your other fics, but I guess it'll come soon! Faith sounds like a great character which brings humour to your fic. That's great smile.gif Please update soon. Can't wait to see what's going to happen next!

I can't belive you have a third! How do you keep track of all the story lines?

I found the blond thing rather offensive. Sure, the girl got what she deserved, but it was still told that 'Fay' was indeed a 'dumb blood'.

Nice so far. I think Lily was a little harsh, though.
happy-potter
I've liked it so far. You have done a good job, and i hope you soon will post a chapter more to the story. biggrin.gif

MOD EDIT: Please elaborate more in your posts. Posts need to be at least two lines (minimum) of typed text in the thread. Tell us what you liked about the fic; what stood out to you. Thanks.
amanda1212
Yay, another chapter. I really like this one! How will Lily react?? I dont know looks like we'll have to wait and find out.


Oh and thank god you said something about Falling For You and Summer Rain...I was getting worried =O


I dont know how much more I can say it, but you really are a great write and I think you found your knack writing James/Lily fics.
Caoo
Aww, Faith is such a good friend smile.gif Lily is lucky to have her. I wonder how she'll react when she finds out, but I guess it'll turn out okay.. at least in the end tongue.gif James really has changed, hasn't he?

Don't worry about SR and FFY, just use your time, and don't rush it smile.gif I guess we all can wait for something good!

hey!
nice you updated agian! i like the story and i hope lily won't be too mad... james really seems to be nice, friendly and mature now, so i think she should show her maturity as well and get over herself! wink.gif
she's now ill, poor lily... i imagine her so peaceful now, can't picture her shouting at james in that state! lol but when she's better again... uh, i dunno...
well, faith really seems like a very nice person! i like her! i think she'll get together with remus wink.gif
amanda1212
Yes! New post!I knew one of these would float out soon!

This was a good post. I can't wait to see what happens when James confronts Lily. Some fighting action I beleive. I also hope she makes up with Faith, shese only trying to help

The suggestions I pmed you with would apply for her because it is the same style fiction so those are just some ideas =]]

Can't wait for moreeee
Caoo
That was a great chapter! Really. When Faith and Remus said, "We need to tell you something," I could feel the tension. Oh, and I waited every moment for Lily to say, "Are you two dating?" or something xD But it didn't come, which I think is good, cause it has nothing to do with it tongue.gif
Anyways, I can't wait for the next chapter. I want to know what's going to happen between Lily and the three -- especially between Lily and Faith.
Well done!
rainyDay
nice chapter! a bit short, but it was good! smile.gif
i think it's a good sign that lily didn't shout! that maybe means that she also changes a bit an gets over her 'i-hate-potter'-thingy... or at least she starts to get over it! lol
and i really do think she's thinking about it all now. it's just natural that she won't give up like this and from one minute to another say 'okay james, i'll try to get along with you'. i mean -she really is a bit stubborn and she does have her pride... it took james some time and it will take her some time. but to me it looks like she's starting to think more aobout it! ^^
great story! happy.gif you write really well!
Polandbaby16
i like it, but like some people already said the last chapter was a little short, but i cant wait to read the next one
charming
I like it too...

It's quite fun to reed Harry Potter things from another point of view.
The Lily and James story is a nice one!

Your writing is also good...

Like to reed more.
the_animagus
Nice one Taralynn. thumbsup.gif You lve to write L/J fanfics don't you?
I liked your idea about the project. Let's see if this turns out in James' favour (Actually it does. Lily and James end up getting married biggrin.gif )
Lily hasn't shown anykind of anger yet but it might be the peace before chaos.
My best wishes to James here. laugh.gif
amanda1212
Yay! New post. And once again it was excellent. Good length, not too long, not too short, although you left me wanting more! It was good description. I love the feeling of tension between the two of them, that was woven in nicely. The last paragraph was my favorite. Well, can't wait for more! Update soon =]

-Amanda
the_animagus
A new Post! (yay!:lol:)
A good chapter. But I really can't stand the tension between them.
Yet it is just a start. I hope that thier session on wednesday goes great...
ringette_rox27
Yay! Another post from my fave fan fic writer. I hope all goes well with Lily & James. I like it when they get together. I like the story plot and the way that this is going. Keep up the great work! biggrin.gif
Caoo
I loved the ending! Really much. And I understand Lily for not forgiving him. I wouldn't have done that either. And he seems so.. fake. It's like he's just pretending, not being nice. But I guess he really has changed. And what will happen when Lily finds out?
Can't wait.. post soon biggrin.gif
ChOco
hey tara,
Is this ur 3rd fanfic, WOW! that is jus so unbelievable, how do u cope with each story plot???
i think this new story is goin pretty well, eh?
Lily is pretty harsh, in my opinion, poor james

P.s can u please hurry up with falling for you & summer rain, there're gettin really suspenseful & interesting that it's just such a pain to wait.

biggrin.gif Wow! Almost as if it was from a pensieve jkr wrote about. I wonder what J.K.Rowling would think of your writing? i love it! i do think lily is a little harsh, and i would have thought she would have stayed away from the marauders insted of being friends with lupin but apart from that perfect!
rainyDay
ha ha ha! *singing* lol that's so good! because lily does notice that james really is different now! she probably just doesn't want to admit it!... hm, well, i can understand her -sort of.
james really proved himself! good one! smile.gif
you really write fantastic! i could imagine everything so exactly and vivid, honestly! *smile*
really great fic! happy.gif
bookworm~hermione
[font=Arial Narrow]I really like your story. Its interresting and I like your writing style. I like the fact that James has changed from years before but Lilly does quite belive he has. I also like the fact that Lilly is suprised by James working. smartass.gif I really like the character Faith she seems to bridge the gap between Lilly(and her friends) and the Mauraders. Its a really good story, keep going please! happy.gif [/font]
FleurDelacour

Thanks for taking the time out of your schedule to write such amazing stories. You have inspired me to write a fan fic too! Keep up the good work!

Your friend,

This one, Tara, is a lot different. I like it.

I think that its a little weird, though. We haven't really seen that much of the "new James" yet, but I believe he seems slightly out of character. I understand that people can change, but James Potter is still a self-confident, slightly cocky teenager, and that's what I love about him, and I always thought that was what Lily was secretly attracted to in him.

I like the angle you're taking with this one. I recently started one that uses the "Potions partners" card as well. Great minds think alike!

<3 always,
Manda

Yea! This is such a great fan fic. I read your other Lilly and James fan fiction, Falling For You, and I love both! I hope you keep posting on both stories. smile.gif

please please please TaraLynn please update soon i really like you fanfic and would like to continue it but i can't do that unless you add a new chapter.
much love from me
kelli
I liked how you portrayed James in the 7th year, and also Lily. The first chapter sounds great and I loved how Lily is so quiet when it comes to her feelings for James. I loved Sirius too wink.gif

I love your writing! But, where is Snape? Don't worry though, I like how you are focusing on their relationship. I really like how you have been portraying James and Lily! I can't wait for the next chapter!
soccerchik
Yay, you updated it! Now I'm happy. I t was really good, I liked it a lot! I can't wait for more though! So please update again soon!

HaRRYPoTTeR FReaK
Hooray! An update, finally!

So... Lily is finally seeing that James has changed. It looks as though she's trying to deny it, even though she knows he's different deep down. I love it.

I still think James is slightly out of character, but other than that, this is brilliant. I can't wait for the next update.
GryffindorBabexhott
Hooray!

The new post was worth the wait. Lily is finally seeing James has changed. That was really great of James to cut practice early to work. This stor is getting even better! (not like it wasnt ever amazing) I can't wait for more. Im now starting my own L/J fan - fic. Im so excited.

Love,
GryffindorBabexhott
ChOco
finally......an update. yay! I luved that chap, and i like how you viewed that fight between Mcnair & scott. And i thought that was kinda sweet, how james cut-short his practice for lily wub.gif aniwayz, great chap, and please update soon
Kelso2010
Yes you updated it!!!! I love this story and it gets better with every new post!! I really liked the fight between Mcnair and scott and I liked how you showed that James has changed because he acctually broke up the fight instead of ignoring the whole situation. And I think it's sweet that James puts Lily first over Quidditch!! can't wait until you update this story and your other two!!!

-Kelso
Pheonixgirl
YAYYY! you updated that was awsome. and lily is finally taking in the fact that james has changd and i'm also imprssed with james h really is taking his had boy duty seriously i just loved that part
much love
~mya
p.s
great work
amanda1212
That was really sweet of James, the fact that he would give up one of his favorite things in the world to study and make Lily happy. I think this will be a big event in the relashionship. Shes finally noticing, yay. Great job this post. Cant wait for more =]

Sorry for such the while on the comment. I just figured out I posted it on someone elses fiction thread lol. Im losing it .
Caoo
That was a great chapter! I really liked it. James really has changed, and now he's proven it. I think Lily's finally seeing it, and maybe they'll start dating soon? I loved this part the most:

I know, that's why I couldn't let him go through with it." Lily, who had been piling potatoes on her plate suddenly stopped. "James knew that I couldn't let him skip Quidditch practice, I would never let myself live it down. He knew that. He knew that he was never in any real danger of having to give up Quidditch, and he gets credit for asking."

It was so great. Something Lily could actually have said. And the funny thing is -- I manage to see myself saying something like that xD

Really liked it! Keep up the good work!
eagleanimagous

Keep up the good work, I'd love to see a full version of this, perhaps you should send it off to a publisher and get their opinion because in my opinion it is certainly worth all the effort, of course, you would need J.K.Rowling's permission
GryffindorBabexhott
Yea! An update! James and Lily are now friends. I wonder how long that will last. awww. I bet James and lily looked perfect together! I couldnt help but laugh when Lily stated babbling like an idiot. So Cute. Pleaase post sooner than your last post! Cant wait!
eagleanimagous
A new post! Finally! I've been waiting forever. this chapter was great. it's nice to see Lily is warming up to James. i hope they get together soon.
post again soon, in all your fics!
Madmoiselle Lilly
Wow I just read your whole fic and it is beyond amazing! Wow ... I am really hooked on this! I wish I could write love stories half as well as you! Can't wait for another chapter! Great Job and Post again soon!
happy-potter
What a great new chapter..! I liked the way Lily and James talked to each other and re-introduced themselves to each other. And Lily said what was on her mind - I couldn't help but laugh smile.gif Hope you'll post again soon smile.gif
TaraLynn
GryffindorBabexhott I'm glad you liked it, and I guess you'll just have to wait to see how long it lasts. Hahaha, according to Faith, Lily and James did look perfect standing together. I like babbling part too, I think it gave Lily more of a personality. I'll try to post sooner, but I can't make any promises. Thanks for reading.

eagleanimagous Hahaha, sorry for the long wait. I'm glad you liked the chapter. Yes, I think it's good that Lily's warming up to James as well. Thanks for taking the time to read my story. I'm glad you liked it.

Madmoiselle Lilly A new reader, cool. Awww, thanks for the compliment, that totally just made my day. Aww, I'm sure it's not that hard to write stories half as good as mine, but I'm flattered nonetheless. Thanks for reading the story, I'm glad you like it.

happy-potter I liked the interaction between James and Lily as well. Hahaha, I liked th way Lily blurted things out also, it gave her character more depth.
