7 Potions Brewed - Accidental Voice

[alwaystreasured]

[Snape has a ghostly visitor today and is conversing with him. He isn't aware that he is being recorded. Or that he's the only one who can see Dumbledore.]

I know it was necessary but it was not you who had to live with the aftermath. Nor did you arrive here to continue to endure it.

[A pause.]

The boy did as he needed to.

Comments

[feorgeous]

Oh, no. Don't mind us, do continue.

[General being a prat combined with genuine interest = Fred, in George's body, possibly getting his twin into trouble. Cheers.]

[alwaystreasured]

It was a private discussion, Mr. Weasley.

[feorgeous]

Naturally, naturally - between yourself and a rather fascinating wall, it seems?

[alwaystreasured]

[A very drawn out sigh.]

The Headmaster would like to inform you that he really doesn't fancy himself to be a wall.

[Why did HE have to deliver that stupid message?]

Voice

Severus...are you all right?

Voice

[alwaystreasured]

Just a ghost of the past.

Voice

[alwaysadoe]

[She's guessing but based on what he's told her, what she just saw and the conversation she had with Minerva, she thinks it's a good guess.]

Dumbledore?

Voice

[alwaystreasured]

Yes. He's here.

[anotherbiscuit]

Was that--?

[ Her voice is lacking as much of the anger and bitterness as she can omit from it. Why does he get to talk to him? Why, of all people--?

No, if Minerva is going to get any answers (and at this point, answers are all she can have) then she must be something of an adult about this. She must trust in Lily's belief and she has to stop being so emotional over it all. He's gone, and while answers won't bring him back, they couldn't make things any worse than they already are.

At best, perhaps she'd regain a colleague. ]

[alwaystreasured]

The Headmaster.

[There is little need to say who. She knows very well who he means.]
