“Jily ” is a ship between James Potter (
Harry Potter’s father) and Lily Evans Potter (
Harry Potter’s mother.)
Fan arts or fan fiction with the Jily ship in it have James Potter constantly asking Lily Evans out, and Lily rejecting him.
Eventually, (if the ship is Jily and not another) Lily says yes to James.
Voldemort killed Lily and James in person on
October 31, 1981.
Jegulus shipper: “I think the star crossed romance between Regulus and James would be
better than James and Lily.”
Jily shipper: “I get what your saying but Regulus was perceived in some ways more of a blood purist— even though he died trying the destroy the horcrux. Sirius said Regulus was the better son so that means in some ways he was more desperate for his Mother’s approval. And if you think they got married, then Harry was never born. I
understand why people say he was so much of a blood purist, but Regulus and James would’ve been different in many ways that wouldn’t make the romantically attracted to each other. Since Regulus is in Slytherin, if he was nice that he’d be out in Hufflepuff— its clear that your house is based off of your
personality— so he has Slytherin traits. I just ship Jily more, that’s all.”
