Imagine McGonagall giving Hagrid another chance after the war
Imagine his eyes welling up with tears when he gets to exchange his umbrella for a wand.
IMAGINE HIM SITTING EAGERLY AMONG A CLASS OF SCARED FIRST YEARS
And he gets his letter from an owl.
And Harry takes him shopping for school in Diagon alley, to return the favor.
NOPE FUCKING CRYING
Imagine Harry sending him a letter via owl to invite him for tea so he doesn’t feel left out when getting owl mail
