Awesome as usual. I find a bit ironic that a psyc story appears in my life the day I spend all afternoon reading my psyc textbook ('cause I'm such a nerd).

Wouldn't professor Binns be the oldest teacher though? He was there when the Marauders were in school, and even before then.

I also think that even with the evidence and the announcement, not every single person would be so accepting. Even from people who didn't wish for malicious intent, I would expect skepticism. Especially from people who've never interacted with Al before (remember, not every single student at Hogwarts knows everyone else. This knowledge comes from having a class of about 450 students - where I know maybe 100 by name/face. If you imagine my class to the entirety of Hogwarts, then you end up with a reasonable estimation - or at least I would think so *goes off to do relative math* There are about 280 students in Hogwarts, but the majority of them would never have heard of Al except for the name Potter...).

Wow, sorry for the feverish rambling - I hadn't quite meant to ramble so much.

lol, that is ironic.

Binns would be the oldest, but he's a ghost and I cannot see them allowing a ghost to take the position because there would be no reason for a ghost to ever give it up.

And I tried to show not everyone would be accepting. His family, many of the people he's interacted with, and Scorpius, his sole friend, would be understanding, but other's not so much. Thus I used Bole to show how people could still be mean to Al.

And don't worry. I ramble too. XD
