Summary: Harry's thoughts on Voldemort and Dumbledore


In a world of black and white, we are who we are.

We choose what has been chosen.

We are destined by what has been prophesied.

We love who our heart desires.

In a world of black and white, we are controlled by that which we thought powerless, useless.


If Harry had learned anything in the past seven years it was that an innocent person's life can be controlled easily by something as unlikely as a prophecy. He had experience in this after all. So was he glad that Voldemort was gone? Yes, he was. Was he happy that Dumbledore was too? Well, that's a little bit harder to answer.

Did Dumbledore love him? A bit, Harry was sure. Did he care about him? No.

And that shouldn't have been so easy to answer, but isn't it so ironic that it was? Whether you're Dark or Light, there's always someone pulling the strings; and when you're their puppet, they're only your master, nothing more.
