HP Thirty-Five Owls

Gellert:

One of the dangers of teaching for years is that it can become conditioned to act as if one knows everything and is omnipotent, which you have to do in front of children.Even though he might actually be a fool, a loser.

I never thought of you as my pug, my old friend.If I had to say it, I felt like I was your pug in those few months.I chased your glorious dreams, and when I realized what those dreams were all about and what a broken path they climbed, I was the one who felt betrayed.But again, when you've been teaching for years, you learn to realize that an argument is really just a matter of yes and no.

Hate me if it makes life easier for you in later years.I had very childish hopes, and you don't, never -- but then again, I'm just an old fool.But, whatever you think of me, I have to ask about that Englishman you mentioned earlier.That fake name couldn't happen to be Voldemort, could it?I'll give you as much time as you want to be alone, but lately, there's been some ominous rumors about the name, and I have to ask.

Other than that, everything is fine.
