Yes or No?
Yes or No?
It's such an easy question to answer
but so hard to get right.
I've got Gellert on one side telling me yes,
I do want power over the Muggles.
I've got my family on the other telling me no,
to be happy with what we've got.
Yes
or
No?
.
Leave your family, Albus.
Join me on our mission.
.
Albus, leave the boy alone.
Help take care of your sister.
.
You're not bound to them, Albus.
Take a chance and come with me.
.
He's a dangerous boy, Albus.
Better be safe than sorry.
.
I'm stuck in the middle,
I don't know what I want.
To be loyal and stick with my family,
or to be brave and go off with Gellert.
.
It's what we've always wanted:
domination over the Muggles.
.
Your sister wants you.
You're the only one she listens to.
.
We can escape death, Albus.
Why wouldn't you want that?
.
You having a loving family.
Why would you risk it all?
.
I'm stuck in the middle.
My head tells me one thing.
My heart tells me another.
I feel broken in half.
I can't see clearly,
like a storm of glitter is surrounding me.
.
My friend or my family?
Loyalty like a Hufflepuff,
or bravery like Gryffindor?
.
I'm not a Hufflepuff,
I'm a Gryffindor.
Yes
