Dumbledore's Wishes
Minerva mentioned she'd put James Potter and Co in detention again today. She told me that instead of making them write lines, she made them do a wish list. I thought this a simply fabulous idea, and I had to write one for myself! Of course, I have better things to do, but sometimes, one has to do what one wants to do, instead of what one needs to do. But because I do have so much to do in so little time, I shall reduce the list to five points instead of ten, to compensate.
I wish that Tom Riddle will never become the Dark Wizard I know he will be. I hear he's gathering forces now. No doubt he'll get a fair few, unfortunately. I just hope it doesn't have to come to another Grindelwald incident. I always found Tom so interesting, just like Grindelwald. I can tell it'll go the same way. What a shame. More wasted talent.
I wish that I could go back a few decades. I would have been more supportive of my family. I must begin to try with Aberforth. Still, it doesn't do to dwell on the past.
I wish that I wasn't the one that had to defeat Grindelwald. I was his friend, and he was mine, and I had to take part in the famous duel that lead to his downfall. At least I didn't have to kill him. He's safe in Nurmengard. I say safe with a pinch of pixie powder- I don't mean safe as in well, I mean safe as in opposed to being dead.
I wish the ministry would stop badgering me to be Minister for Magic. You'd think I was quite flattered, but I'm actually quite exasperated. I'm glad Fudge has top spot, but I do wish he wouldn't plague me with owl's everyday, asking for advice. It gets a little tiresome, to tell the truth.
I wish I had become Headmaster of Hogwarts much sooner. It is my preferred position, as much as I enjoyed teaching transfiguration, and I wish I could have been Headmaster from a much younger age. I've learnt so much from this castle, it's students and teachers, that sometimes I feel I'm the luckiest man alive to be in my position.
I finally finished Dumbledore's wishes! Took me ages haha! Thanks to Marlicat for the idea! Please read & review, hope you enjoy! Next Minerva McGonagall!
