Stories by K Prakrutiyay

This is my canon for my favourite characters, Albus Dumbledore and Minerva McGonagall. It aligns with the actual source material, including Fantastic Beasts, but I view Albus as bisexual rather than gay, as I love his pairing with Minerva and his tragic love story with Gellert. I'm not trying to heteronormalize Albus, so please forgive me if it seems that way. No AI. Fck JKR.
Two scholars. One fire. Years of silence finally broken, and now - her fangs at his jaw, his hands at her waist, and the very particular madness of best friends who have discovered, catastrophically late and quite irrevocably, that they are also this.
He was hers. She knew it. The world never would. The histories will remember Grindelwald. They will not remember her. Albus Dumbledore was Minerva McGonagall's life - and the world will never know it.
A week after their collision, they finally have the discussion. The age gap discussion.
In 1968, in his shirt and his bed, Minerva names the truth - eighty-seven and thirty-two. They meet it gently, weighing years and loss, then choose each other anyway - warm, certain, and unafraid - reclaiming sixteen silent years (for her), nine years (for him) and holding fast to what they've finally found.
A book, a decade, a silence too long held - then ruin, soft as rain. In the amber hush, two brilliant fools unlearn restraint, trading years of longing for touch, laughter, and the dangerous grace of finally being known, chosen, and utterly undone. Set in September 1968.
