MEMOS

Minerva?

No. I've changed my name.

What shall I call you now?

I only answer to Professor McBadass.

Minerva, we have been through this.

Sorry, I suddenly cannot read you writing.

*Sigh*

Professor McBadass, we have been through this.

Yes we have. That does not change my mind, however.

Fine. Can you answer my question, though?

That depends on the question.

Well, you know Muggles, don't you?

Yes, Albus, I know Muggles. As do you.

Yes, but you know Muggles, don't you? As friends and such.

Merlin help me! Yes, Albus, I do.

Then you will be just the person to help me.

I don't like the sound of this.

What exactly is the function of a rubber duck?

Well, of course, it's… actually… I – I don't know… it just sort of… is.

How very helpful you have been.

Well… you put it in the bath and it… just… floats…

Brilliant. Oh, wise one, I shall never have a question again with your help!

What made you come up with this question?

Arthur Weasley.

I'm going to kill that man; I'll be thinking of this question all day!

Don't kill him, please. He'll leave behind seven children.

Well, maybe he should have thought about that before he started asking annoying, brain-plaguing questions… or maybe before he jumped into bed with Molly.

Harsh.

I know.

You love it really.

Albus?

You do, don't you?

Dumbly?

Sigh. Forever alone.


A/N: If anyone does know the real function of a rubber duck, I would love to know.
