    So is Dumbledore descended from Christ or Meciel? Also can you tell me where it is. I keep missing these subtle clues. I have no idea where to begin to find this clue you guys are talking about.

    There is no such clue. Meciel just implies that she knew AD's ancestors. Nothing more.

    Said "clue":

    But the way she said it can easily be interpreted as saying that she herself was one of his ancestors. It was the conclusion I reached immediately after reading that passage. But, after reflection, I doubt that Dumbledore is descended from Meciel; it would create too much of a conflict of interest in terms of who she 'loves.' Tessa already said that there was no way Harry could live up to the love she had felt for her descendants (before they were exterminated.)

    I don't see how can you reach such a conclusion after reading this:

    As you said,the hint shows that she knew his ancestors.However,I cannot imagine a Denarian Lord socializing a lot with common mortals at the time,unless it is her human family.

    So, by your logic, since a Denarian Lord knew Dumbledore's ancestors, Dumebledore MUST be descended from Meciel.

    Great fucking logic there you retard. If you are gonna make an argument, at least put a little bit of effort into making it both sound and valid.

    And I guess you have a better theory as to who his ancestors were?
    Or are you going to stand by the belief that Meciel just happened to know them?Maybe they were drinking partners,who knows?

    Or maybe we could be non-retarded and say "there's not enough evidence to suggest any particular person or family".

    I never said I am certain.It is just a theory.If a better one comes along,I will gladly accept it.

    So... a bad theory, if it's the only theory, is one worthy of adopting?

    The answer to that is no.

    I encourage you to convert to the religion of "I don't know". You don't always have to have an answer, and if you don't have one, you don't have to come up with a shitty one to fill the gap.

    Bets on Shezza looking at this thread and going 'WTF?! I didn't intend that?' or slightly less likely 'how can I fit that in now?'

    I'm going to bet on both. S/he may've intended it as a throwaway comment, but to work it in could be an interesting (albeit predictable) twist.

    Naw, Shezza's view on the matter is its one of those things he... implies slightly, and people can believe what they wish. Same goes for Verrine, whether she and Harry fucked each other is up to the individual reader. If they want to think that they had sex, then think that, if you didn't want them to have sex (like me in this regard) then they didn't.

    He has done this with a few controversial issues. Good idea, tbh.

    Heh. That new chappie is made of win and pwn. I've always been a fan of those kind of scenes in films/television/books. They remind me of the importance of a locked door.

    Otherwise, I think I only saw one grammer/spelling error, where you used "She dived back under the sheets", where you should have used "dove". But that's just me being nitpicky.

    On the whole 5/5. I demand Moar!
