mcgonagall do you think we should start requiring permission slips for quidditch? i mean, potter literally lost all the bones in his arm last year

dumbledore nah

mcgonagall also, maybe we should let parents know if we're gonna send students into the forest for detentions? remember when we sent potter in there and you-know-who tried to kill him?

dumbledore nah

mcgonagall well, maybe we should get permission from parents for extracurricular activities. dueling club last year resulted in potter being outed as a parsletongue, and everyone thought he was the heir of slytherin for most of the year

dumbledore nah

mcgonagall alright, well, potter wants to know if he can go to hogsmeade. the abusive muggles you saddled him with wouldn't sign his form

dumbledore you wanT HIM TO GO TO HOGSEMEADE WITHOUT A PERMISSION FORM??? DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS??? HE MIGHT GET CAVITIES FROM ALL THE CANDY HE MIGHT BUY. I WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A LAWSUIT, MINERVA
