#witty!lily

Im look for a very long multi-chapter fic set in 7th year, James had been dating someone else (I specifically recall a prank related to her saying “antlers”) , Lily has a very *close* past relationship with Snape, and Lily and James start dating and very quickly she’s more physically into him, if you know what I mean. Even has a sequel…?

I hope you can help! 😅

I think this is this one:
