"You wanted to see me, Professor?"
"Yes, Harry. As Head of Gryffindor House I'm responsible for addressing your latest...activities."
"You mean Dumbledore's Army, Professor?"
"Quite right, boy. Quite right."
"...I suppose punishment is going to be worse than a bit of detention, innit."
"D-Detention? Mr. Potter you think I summoned you because you're in trouble?"
"Didn't you, Professor McGonagall?"
"Potter...Harry. You started a paramilitary organization. I couldn't be more proud of you. I'm awarding 500 points to Gryffindor for esprit de corps, and you are getting extra lessons!"
"500 points to Gryffindor sounds fantastic. That's really great, Professor...but extra lessons still sounds like punishment."
"Mr. Potter, by the time I was your age I had already started three different paramilitaries and overthrown two dictatorships and minor principality. "
"Professor that's--"
"Don't interrupt, boy, this is important. I know you had dreams of becoming an Auror, but after discussing it with Dumbledore we have decided you shall follow me into Spec Ops, and I won't be entertaining any objects. Now, do you remember Igor Karkaroff? Head of Durmstrang Institute, talks like a cheap Bond villain. You briefly encountered him during the Tri-Wizard tournament."
"Yes, Professor. I remember him. Seemed a bit of a right git if you ask me."
"Too right. Well it seems he's become something of a dictator, oppressing the local population and the like. The worst sort horror stories are coming in on the wire."
"And we're going to do something about it? You want me to do something about it?"
"Operation Tyranus Deletus has already begun. Your Weasley friends, Fred and George, have been running arms and supplies to the local Mugglehideen for the past two months. We are going to slip in and teach them how to fight a guerrilla war."
"Bloody brilliant."
Harry x Malfoid story on Twitter: “I don’t fancy him roight?! I don’t fancy him one bit, I don’t! Schtewpid Pottah. Hmph” 😳
Dobby subplot currently for some reason:
Listen here you toad faced bitch. While you were giving the minister a dirty footjob in the wizengmot chambers I was in the hills of Afghanistan teaching the Mujahedeen how to repel the soviets with nothing but a bent knife, an old Martin Henry from 1878 and 1st year spells
Lucius:
"Potter, I have been watching you carefully."
"You possess remarkable potential."
"Your ambition is even more impressive."
"If you are willing, I will teach you everything about our house."
"Our history."
"Our traditions."
"Our influence."
"And, perhaps most importantly, the powerful magic that has been passed down through generations of the Malfoy family."
Harry:
"You're serious?"
Lucius:
"Completely."
"I believe knowledge should be given to those capable of using it."
"And you, Potter, are clearly capable."
"But before we begin..."
"Dracaena."
Malfoid:
"What?"
Lucius:
"Please let go of Potter for five minutes."
Malfoid:
"No."
Lucius:
"Five minutes."
Malfoid:
"No."
Lucius:
"Three minutes?"
Malfoid:
"No."
Lucius:
"One minute?"
Malfoid:
"Absolutely not."
Lucius:
"Dracaena, you have been holding onto him since breakfast."
Malfoid:
"He was cold."
Lucius:
"We are standing next to a fireplace."
Malfoid:
"That doesn't mean anything."
Lucius:
"It means you have been using the fireplace as an excuse for six hours."
Malfoid:
"I have not!"
Harry:
"She's been holding my arm this entire time."
Malfoid:
"Because you keep trying to leave!"
Harry:
"I was going to the bathroom."
Malfoid:
"You could have told me."
Lucius:
"Potter, I am beginning to understand why you have survived Hogwarts."
Harry:
"How?"
Lucius:
"Pure confusion."
Malfoid:
"Father, stop talking."
Lucius:
"I haven't even started."
"Potter, if you join us, I can teach you spells that most wizards will never hear about."
"Ancient defensive magic."
"Advanced dueling techniques."
"Family wards."
"Magical theory."
"And perhaps a few secrets that the Ministry would rather remain secrets."
Harry:
"That sounds interesting."
Malfoid:
"See? He's staying."
Lucius:
"I was speaking to Potter."
Malfoid:
"And I'm listening."
Lucius:
"Of course you are."
"Now, Potter..."
"Your first lesson begins tomorrow."
Harry:
"All right."
Lucius:
"Excellent."
"Dracaena, please let go of him now."
Malfoid:
"No."
Lucius:
"...I give up."
Harry:
"Can I at least get my arm back?"
Malfoid:
"No."
Lucius:
"Welcome to the Malfoy family, Potter."
Harry:
"I haven't joined your family."
Lucius:
"Give it time."
Malfoid:
"Father!"
Lucius:
"What?"
"I am merely observing the situation."
"HARRY! HARRY! What in the name of Merlin were you doing with the Malfoid girl?"
"Nothing prof-"
"Good God, the whole castle could hear it! Girl screams like a banshee! Haven't heard anyone lay it down like that since your father was here. 500 points to Gryfindor!"
