Description
Birthday present RosaZaira , who created a beautiful fanart of and made an awesome gift for me on my birthday ^ ___ ^ I hope you like it, sweetheart, and please forgive the horrendous mistakes I madeRemember when Petunia was so mean to her sister Lily, right before she left for her first year at Hogwarts? Me neither. But I came across the scene in DH and wanted to illustrate it for Rosa. While Petunia is jealously trying to make her sister feel awful for being different, a "freak" going off to a school for witches and wizards, Lily knows that Petunia desperately wanted to go as well. So instead of feeling insulted and hurt, Lily has a sympathetic insight to her sister, most likely thanks to her nosy friend Snape.
This is the scene where they discover a letter from Dumbledore in Petunia's room, in which the Headmaster gently refused Petunia's pleas to go to Hogwarts with her sister. Snape spies the letter from Hogwarts buried in Petunia's clutter, just before a startled Lily admonishes him for poking around in her sister's things.
Anyway, Rosa, I know you like Tuney & Lily, so I hope you enjoy. Have a wonderful birthday!!

Down the Memory Hole
by ^arctoa, Jan 18, 2010, 9:35:59 AM Literature / Poetry / Sociopolitical / Traditional Fixed Forms
Lost love letters
from former London
litter a funereal
paper constellation
As landfill martyrs
burnt and buried
like Thames bridges
left in the undertow:
Dragged substrata
in pressure mines
of war and famine
before the Ministry
Inkwell crematoria
kingdoms of rust.
In Bbrother we trust,
adrift on Airstrip1.

A very nice scene. I like the cosy interior of the room, the bed, poster and the curtains create a very welcoming atmosphere

Ooh, ooh...
So cute!
Sev was never an innocent boy, but I think this times were when he was 'almost' innocent.
Is that a picture of Tuney (or, maybe, Vera)? :3
And are those the Jackson 5 in the wall?

It's Lily, and the poster is The Osmonds, a family popular for innocuous pop music @ the time.

Beautiful work, Cathy-- great storytelling going on in this single scene! And I love how the colors look like-- for some reason they made me think it would be supercool to see a children book fully illustrated in this style.

This is so sweet and cute. I love the innocently curious way Snape is just taking a little peek, already letting the inner spy show, and Lily is like : "ah..ah not sure you should be looking at..tha...t.."
Love the poster and the overall atmosphere of the room

joeyv7 In reply to e-c-h [2013-06-04 23:56:45 +0000 UTC]
heh, thanks . . . my overriding concern was having her NOT look like Vera, and after that, have them roughly resemble 9 - 10 yr olds. Don't google '9 year old boy' in images. Reallll squicky results And children that age seem to have no bones in their face, either. I finally had to look @ some earlier stuff I did
Poster was most fun . . . can u guess who they are? One turned out to be a surprising good dancer, as you know

I love Petunia's room hahaha. LOOKS ACCURATE.

thank you Esper! I'm glad you like them, I was looking at pics of children this age and . .. Wow, the faces are SO soft and relatively undefined. If I was able to get Snape looking younger than usual that's good, 'spidery' is not really common in children, etc. :shrugs:

GASP! This is LOVELY! Thank you!
OF COURSE I LIKE IT! I IT!
(I see none of such 'claimed' mistakes )
I recognized the scene straight away! Ah, yes...'nosey' Snape.
I love Lily's expression, she's like "Uh, I don't think you should be doing that-"
And Severus, of course, is just looking about like he owns the place!
I love Petunia's room! It's very Petunia!
The poster made me laugh! It's also too clean for my liking! Petunia was always immaculate so you got that down to a T!
I am having a wonderful birthday! Thank you! It's been the sunniest day Scotland has seen for a LONG time. It's so hot out! Phew.
Shame I still have to study! Last exam tomorrow though
Thanks again!

so glad you like! Actually I haven't done anything like this in ages, and it was a real pleasure as well as a challenge. You do such a good job of them as children, btw, it inspired me to give this a try XD so thanks back!

I'm so glad you drew this scene... though I've always believed Lily was reticent at first and then helped Severus out of innocent curiosity!

janach In reply to JulesDrenages [2013-06-09 01:32:51 +0000 UTC]
I've always thought that Lily was nosing around (maybe looking for hints of Tuney liking boys so she could tease her) and Sev got dragged along, not interested at all until he spotted the Hogwarts stationary.
No one really knows, of course.

Points for guessing the boy band. 1970's of course that's the only hint I'm giving ...
