hey i just fuckin realized, ok, dumbledore knew the curse on the DADA position was a thing, he was there when riddle cast it and anyway i feel like if you’re headmaster for fifty years or whatever you notice when every teacher you hire for a specific position has some kind of ironic tragedy ruin their shit by the end of the year, every year, for fifty years. and also dumbledore never let snape take the position cuz he wanted him to stick around. he knew what was going on!!! so ok so what i realized is dumbledore hired remus ‘actual cinnabon’ lupin anyway for the cursed DADA position that fucks your shit up in nine months or less, the year the ministry sicced dementors on hogwarts because remus’s old bff was loose from wizard jail. like. dumbledore what the fuck. ‘hey that sweet and loyal guy who can’t catch a break and got most of his life ruined serving me already– i’m gonna put him in this position of getting the rest of his life ruined. like. for reasons! haha ten points to dumbledore!’

i don’t think dumbledore was much of a chessmaster at all?? i think he was just a huge dick.
