Yeah, yeah I know. Two chapters in a day. But this was is super short, so I just wanted it out of the way.

"I hate to say I told you so, but I did warn you this would happen."

"What? It went fine!"

"Fine? Fine? Albus, you're behind schedule and you know it."

"The schedule is ridiculous. How was I to convince Voldemort to accept himself in one night?"

"Don't look at me, I wasn't there. You have only yourself to blame for this one."

"What about the memories?"

"Don't try to be clever with me. You could have easily found a way to make those memories less conscious."

"And what exactly should I have done?"

"Not done this at all."

"What else was I supposed to do? A new Dark Lord is on the rise, and to have done nothing-"

"Albus, we guide and nudge, we do not take action. The Council says-"

"The Council of Light is made of a bunch of dithering old fools."

"You're a fool for starting this. When the Council hears-"

"Don't tell them yet! I have a new plan..."

Interludes stink, but they're necessary. Review me!
