Pity me. I have a crush on my Professor.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Is it a crush if he returns it so ardently?

[greatestgood]

Does he? Well that makes the reward system for lessons quite intriguing!

[chambermusicandtenpins]

As if you would not be using such rewards to bribe me just as well.

[greatestgood]

That's your fault for being attracted to me.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

I suppose it is. Pity that I can't help it.

[greatestgood]

Is it really a pity? I promise to make you feel really good.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[That earns him a small laugh.]

You've already been quite successful at that.

[greatestgood]

So you know I'm not lying.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Oh, I'm very aware that you are not. Delightfully so.

[greatestgood]

Then I will be waiting for you, dear Professor. Ready at my desk.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Bent over it, no doubt.

[greatestgood]

Are you already dreaming? I don't mind being fully prepared for you.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

I merely guess at what ideas you might have already had in your head. But I certainly would not mind your preparations.

[greatestgood]

I think I can arrange myself enticingly - at your desk or mine. The lesson can be slightly delayed.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Why do I suspect you might use such enticement to push aside the lesson entirely?

[greatestgood]

I can't be blamed. Once you start teaching, I will want you.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

I think you would want me even if I wasn't.

[greatestgood]

That's true! But I want you even more when you're official.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

You like the idea of seducing me away from my responsibilities.

[greatestgood]

I can't deny that. Maybe I am a demon.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

Or perhaps you have been starved for my touch and are making up for lost time.

[greatestgood]

That is a distinct possibility. Germany lacked you; France lacked you. I stopped feeling much of anything.

[chambermusicandtenpins]

[Gellert can't see it, but Albus wears such a pained smile at that.]

I'll bring you back to feeling, then.

[greatestgood]

I do fear it. What will I do if I lose you again? [The thought makes him sick.]
