Summary
The trip that Lily Evans expects to go on is the annual pre-dissertation jaunt to Athens with the rest of her Classical Civilizations PhD program. The trip she does not expect to go on is to 479 BCE, right on the cusp of one of the most important battles in the Greco-Persian war. Now, she has to navigate antiquity as she tries to find her way back to the 21st Century, God—or gods—help her.
James wants to win this war. No, James needs to win this war. He is a man of honor and duty, and even if it means dying a gruesome, bloody death, he will go down in history as one of Athens's great warriors. He will suffer no distractions; not even beautiful ones who speak strangely and refuse to listen to his orders.

Summary
He's a Mage, One of Nine, Last of His Line. She's a foot soldier, one of far too many in this war waged by far too few, but at one point he was just Potter and she was just Evans and things were good. That was before, though, and this is now. A decade has come and gone between before and now, a war has come and stayed between before and now, but the memory of her never left him. He remembers her and thinks she might remember him, too.

The Very Regency (Un)Ladylike Guide To Fortune-Hunting by ritaskeetered

Summary
"Without thinking highly either of men or matrimony, marriage had always been her object; it was the only honourable provision for well-educated young women of small fortune, and however uncertain of giving happiness, must be their pleasantest preservative from want." (Jane Austen)
Lily Evans finds herself wanting, or: so her sister seems to believe. While out on the hunt for a fortune - again: that would be Mrs Dursley mostly - the affection of a number of suitors is most welcome. Especially when a young Viscount's heart is set aflame.
A Regency Jily AU.

Summary
“It’s okay to be scared. It’s perfectly normal. Having feelings for someone, putting yourself out there, being in a relationship - that’s all kind of terrifying. But just because we’re scared doesn’t mean we shouldn’t go for it anyway.” The words echoed in Sirius’s head as Lily leaned her head against his shoulder. “We’re Gryffindors. Doing things that terrify us is kind of what we do.”

Muggle University AU - James Potter & Remus Lupin Dual POV
Excerpt:
“Wait, this is really interesting,” Sirius said suddenly, moving around the table to stand between Lily and Remus, pointing at a sketch. “The way you captured this hand holding a cigarette is both poetic and raw. I love the feel of it.” He leaned down to meet Lily’s eye level.Lily nodded excitedly, “That’s one of my favourite subjects actually, though I doubt he’ll pose for us. We may have to use the sketches.” She glanced pointedly at Remus and then back at Sirius. She pulled a few more examples of the same subject out of her bag and showed Sirius.
“We’ll just have to talk him into it,” Sirius said dismissively, either missing the look or ignoring it. “That is just what we need. It’s a brilliant mix of elegance and violence.”
