Quite a lot will, my boy, quite a lot and it still saddens me immensely.

[notquitevillain.livejournal.com]

No. It won't.

I won't let anything go wrong.

[wearpurplerobes.livejournal.com]

I have lived it, a thousand times over.

I know you didn't intend it, but you overestimated your ability to control, or predict, everything.

[notquitevillain.livejournal.com]

No.

His hands were shaking, and he was trying to rid himself of the thought prowling in his mind. The fear that this might be true. That.. But no.

He would not let anything go wrong. He would make sure nothing did.

No!

A part of me wishes I were lying.

My dear boy, the only way you and I can stay friends is if you give up your plan.

[notquitevillain.livejournal.com]

Our plan. Albus and I are in this together.

And nothing is going to happen. We are going to do what we intend! Gain power and change things! For the better.

[wearpurplerobes.livejournal.com]

Our plan, yes, I will shoulder my part of the blame.

Not for the better, my boy, you and I are naive little boys and our plan is most certainly not for the better.

He was silent for a moment. Then, after a long pause, he asked.

What happens?

[wearpurplerobes.livejournal.com]

There's a struggle at my home about Aberforth, and numerous hexes and curses end up thrown about, and Ariana dies. You and I split ways that night.

[notquitevillain.livejournal.com]

Ariana..

Then I'll be nice to him. Nicer. I don't think I can manage "nice" to him. Civil.

I.. I won't let anything happen. I won't!

[wearpurplerobes.livejournal.com]

I sincerely hope you succeed.

[halloweddestiny.livejournal.com]

...you're right, of course..

[notquitevillain.livejournal.com]

Nothing is going to happen.

He seemed to say it more for his own benefit, reassuring himself. He looked at the other, those hazel eyes somewhat wide.

We're in this together. Right? Through thick and thin, I believe the expression is. We're a team. Partners. Right?

He... seemed to almost need to hear it.

[halloweddestiny.livejournal.com]

O..of course, we are, Gellert.

That was what I promised when we started this and I don't break my promises.

[notquitevillain.livejournal.com]

And I swear that nothing is going to go wrong. Nothing is going to happen.

I'm not going to do anything stupid. I'm not going to lose you.

How terribly naive of you, monsieur.
