Harry James Potter feeling satisfied with being anything other than an auror is not something I can believe.
Like I completely get why so many support the Harry as a teacher idea, it would be so good for him and I love teacher Harry, he’s good at it and he likes it. But I just think he wouldn’t be able to do it, he would NEED to be an auror. This is the boy who can’t sit still, who needs to help everyone he can. Who would do anything to fight dark magic. Even after all he’s done it would eat away at him knowing he wasn’t out there in the action helping. And no it’s not the healthiest option for him at all but I just can’t see him doing anything else.

if harry was a teacher he’d get so bored he’d have to manufacture elaborate, thinly-veiled recreations of his earlier adventures so he could swoop in and save the day

‘neville did u see that writing on the wall?’

‘metaphorically, or-’

‘NO, the literal writing on the wall…over there!’

neville squints: ‘the chamber of secr–fuck’s sake, harry.’

‘i know! isn’t that, like, totally crazy???’

‘yeah…it’s some kind of crazy.’

‘i heard a cat was petrified!’

‘and a student with a camera.’

‘u heard???’

‘….’

‘so, when do you think they’ll ask me to go investigate?’

‘i’m not sure they will…’

‘why??’

‘u killed the basilisk 20 years ago, mate…’

‘well clearly some nut job has set a monster on the loose….’

‘hagrid did say someone broke into his latest batch of flobberworms…’

‘weird.’

‘is it?’

‘what?’

‘nevermind. tell you what, mate. why don’t you go investiga–’
