One of my favorite kinks (teacher/student) and favorite pairings.
I love this Albus: self-justifying and aware of the fact that he's doing it. But doing it anyway. And the slightly predatory Minerva, who knows so well, already, how to get under his skin. Going on my recs list, of course.

I love your description of Minerva here as being 'slightly predatory' - that's such a good way of putting it. I picture her as a young woman who has just worked out the kind of power she can wield with her sexuality, and is utterly revelling in that: trying it out; almost surprised at how potent it can be. The fact that she finds she can wield power over the most powerful (and most desirable... ahem ;-) ) man in the Wizarding World is quite dizzying, and she's not going to stop, now!
I see Albus here as someone who needs the 'excuse' of Minerva taking the lead; it helps him tip the balance with the self-aware self-justifying if he's falling prey to some external siren call.
