Lol, a baby basilisk, and Dumbledore ignores it. He's such a hypocritical idiot in this story, probably the most evil of them all, conspiring to kill a teenage boy by having him take down a student that he had corrupted, just to eliminate Dumbledore's own magical competition. When Hogwarts murders him, I wanna piss on his grave.

This tale does an excellent job of showing just why I've no love for Dumbledore for it shows him as I had figured him by the time I had finished the fifth book. A manipulative, too full of himself old so and so.

Only he knows what is right, what is best. Can't stand the character. He, in his own way is just as bad as old Moldy in my eyes.

Yet again well done.

This little vigenette pretty much sums up why I consider Dumbledore to be a MOB.

It's there in canon, this just lays it out, nice and neat.

Very well done.

Albus has this delusion that he alone knows what is best for everyone. What an absolute arse.

You know, when you portray Dumbledore this way in these terms, it's not so hard to buy it. It's still a leap to get here from his dark side Jo showed us in OotP and DH, but it's one that's much more conceivable to me.

What brought out the change? I think it was this line:

Power always corrupted, well, except with him; he’d resisted corruption.

That really sums up Puppet master!Dumbledore, doesn't it? Eyes always on the whole board. So much faith in himself that he can rationalize anything. The road to hell, and all that ...

About the only thing that doesn't jive with this angle is Dumbledore's oft-repeated belief in second chances (though I suppose that could be, to your Dumbledore, an expedient for keeping certain people where he wants them).

I do appreciate, though, that Dumbledore's bird and 'his' castle are the ones seeing through the deception. Are going to see Hogwarts' reaction? I hope so.

So anyway, another though provoking chapter. Thanks!

Damn, you really don't like Dumbledore, do you?

And neither do I! Kudos. :)

One typo:
"After all, she did use confess to using a killing curse."

The word "use" shouldn't be there.

ttfn,

ps: I think the last two lines in this vignette have caused the most puzzlement in this community, as compared to all the other unanswered questions in this series. :-)

Sneaky Dumbledore... was he a Slytherin? Not one to be proud of, that's for sure. And my, do I want to know what changed.

Thanks a bunch, reading through these vignettes is incrdibly fun.
