Mundungus Fletcher
1 He was born Manning Dagan Fletcher, to a high class pure-blood family.
2 He had a brother and two sisters.
But they've forgotten about him now.
3 He was sorted into Ravenclaw.
Because Mundungus Fletcher, however horrible or rude he became in late life, was an extremely clever person.
4 He particularly liked Transfiguration.
He particularly hated Herbology.
5 He was popular and made his way through school steadily.
But he never thought he'd have to use anything he learned, he had his parents money to fall back on if school failed.
6 He failed school.
But Manning Fletcher expected to fail school, he didn't need school.
7But he didn't expect to fall for her.
8 She was the sort of girl that they tried to keep quiet. The kind of girl that was shut away in a house and never spoken of.
She was unstable. She was not trusted to have a wand, she couldn't go to Hogwarts.
9 His parents told him that he was being stupid. Yes, Jennifer was a lovely girl, but she wasn't 'wife material'
10 His parents dis-inherited Manning when he became engaged the Jenny.
That was when he changed his name, Manning Dagen Fletcher, became Mundungus Fletcher.
11 Jenny was the only who ever called him Manning.
12 She may not have been 'wife material' but at the age of 23 she became Mundungus' wife.
13 They began out alright. He had managed to get some money of his accounts before they were shut off from him. They were surviving.
14 Supporting himself was easy enough, but supporting an unstable woman who needed routine and a lot of attention?
15 That was when it began.
He was forced to. He had no education. No grades. No degrees. And now, no money. There were no other options.
16 After all, he was sorted into Ravenclaw. He may not be academically clever, but he was quick and sneaky.
17 He stole, and sold and ripped people off. He earned himself a reputation as a thief.
But none of what he did, was for himself. He made money to support his wife, to keep her sane and stable.
18 The thing he regrets most is stealing for Sirius Black. But life just wasn't fair. Sirius was dead. He didn't need it anymore. But Jennifer needed it. Jennifer needed her medication. So he stole from a dead man.
He never felt so low.
19 People thought he was dirt. They simply thought that he was a drunk who stole to get money for drugs or drink. He didn't correct them, because he didn't want pity.
20 There are some people, rare special people, who will do absolutely anything for the person they love.
They are not dirt, or a coward. They are not horrible and disgusting. They are brave and selfless.
Yet Mundungus Fletcher died as a dirty coward. His grave would not be visited, no flowers would be placed in memory of him. In fact, he would be forgotten completely.
But as Mundungus Fletcher knew very well, Life Isn't Fair.
HEY GUYS!
:D I hope that you liked that
just to let you know, I didn't know quite how to describe Jennifer, but i imagined her the same as Arianna Dumbledore. Sort of like, mentally unstable but with magic bursting out randomly. But unlike Arianna, she was able to get medicine to control her a little. If it doesnt make any sense to you, just ignore it. :D
