World Enough by Willow Rosenberg

Printer
Summary: The Marauders have left school behind them just as war has fallen across the Wizarding World at last--quiet and invisible, but war nonetheless. And on the front lines is this small group of young Hogwarts graduates who have moved from pranking battles to something far more serious.

In this third and final installment to the James and Lily story begun in “Trickster” and “Stars Apart,” the Marauders join their friends in the Order as a part of what feels more and more like a fight they have no chance of winning. In the middle of it all, love grows and friendships break, trust forms and wavers, and warriors who are barely more than children must learn not only how to fight but what they are fighting for.

Story Notes: Hi again! So my original plan was to write most of this fic before posting so I would always have regular updates but uh, that didn't pan out, mostly because a) this thing is going to be massively long but also because b) it turns out that what keeps me accountable is, well, posting. I do have a decent amount of it written already though, so updates should be regular until i catch up with myself, and hopefully after that as well :)

This is the third (and final!) installment to the "Trickster" series. I had the same debate with the last one, but for continuity's sake, this is in the James/Liily category even though it's kind of a Marauder story. WHATEVER THEY'RE ALL THERE AND THEY ALL LOVE EACH OTHER mostly. But there's a war going on here. Sirius, Remus, and oh even Peter have their own distinct storylines this time around. so it's about them all. But this started as a James/Lily story, and it'll end that way, too.

This one is a little older and a little darker than "Trickster" and "Stars Apart" before it. It picks up about four months from where "Stars Apart" left off and goes to...well, you'll see, won't you! But for all of you who have stuck with us from the beginning--and for those of you who are just here now--thank you. I hope you enjoy this ending.

Andd we'll see what happens with the rating on this one. I don't think it's violent enough (or possibly sexy enough, herp derp) to be bumped up to professors, but uh, we'll reevaluate that when the time comes, if need be. Also in some places I'm going off of what's been revealed in Pottermore as of now, but it we get more information later, I might be working around it :S

December 2014: This is just a note to say that, as of right now, there is an overwhelming amount of stuff happening in my life. But I still think about this, and thank you so much to everyone who has followed along. I promise I haven't forgotten. I just need to take care of some things before coming back. xoxo
