Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 353
Warnings: Talks about things in sex-ed classes.
Summary: Dumbledore writes a letter to his potions master begging him to take up the role of Sex-Ed teacher at Hogwarts.
AN: I got this idea from the Hogwarts Hanky-Panky thread and a conversation in chat.
Written for Operation Poufsouffle!
Dearest Severus,
I have written to inform you, no to beg you, to take a new class at Hogwarts this year. You see I could just order you to do so, but I think that you and I can come to an agreement as to why this is a necessary step that we really do need to take for the benefit of our entire community.
You see, it has recently come to my attention that our students are, shall I say, much more mature than I would otherwise have thought. I won’t mention names, but instead I will say that the incident caused much noise from the Astronomy Tower last Wednesday night, which thoroughly disturbed many of the younger Gryffindors who were woken by it.
Not only has there been these more - extreme - cases occurring, but according to some of the Hogwarts ghosts there have been many third years who have been horrified by things that have been happening to them recently. Some nights young girls have woken up to find blood on their sheets with no idea how it happened, and boy finding... other things.
I’m sure that you will agree with me that this ignorance we have thrust upon our students is something which must be corrected, and I believe that you are the only person who is capable enough to deal with all of these rowdy teenagers in such an unusual environment. Please Severus, at least consider taking up this new role before you reject it. It would be for the benefit of everyone if you did, including yourself. Just remember back to when you were a student. Wouldn’t your life have been much easier if you had known what you now know back then? And the marauders would not have given everyone so much grief if they actually understood what half of the things they were saying meant.
Your new role, if you choose to accept it, will also come with a vastly increased pay rise.
Please try to consider this idea.
Yours truly,
Albus.
