We are finishing Chapter discussions on DD's Will and soon to start
the Wedding. Sorry if this was covered in earlier posts, but those
two chapters hear from prime characters for the last time.
So which characters did know Albus Dumbledore was gay?
These ones knew for sure
- Grindelwald (the only one we know for sure)
These ones probably knew ...
- Aberforth Dumbledore (Probably)
These ones may have known, but we aren't sure ...
- *Elphias Doge (who admired Albus and hid facts from his obituary)
- *Rufus Scrimgeour (as head of Aurors [wizard FBI] and new Ministr
of Magic, he was able to hear secrets)
- Ariana Dumbledore (Possibly)
- Mrs Kendra Dumbledore (Muggle born in an era when homosexuals were
not gay)
- Mr Percival Dumbledore (Albus didn't meet Grindelwald until after
his father was in Azkaban, but Albus may have displayed gay
tendancies before)
- *Bathilda Bagshot (neighbour that told Lily and James some
unbelieveable things about Albus)
- *Rita Skeeter (after pumping Bathilda for information)
- Nearly-Headless Nick or other Hogwarts ghosts
How the story takes on a new light if these knew ...
- The muggle boys that attacked Ariana (were they picking on the
gay's little sister?)
- *Did Lily and James hear?
What about others? -and would that change how we view the story? ...
Mad-eye Moody, McGonagall, Tom Riddle (Slughorn in HBP said Tom had
a way offinding out information), Slughorn, Snape, Hagrid, Mdm
Pomfrey (allowing DD to sit with unconscious Harry in PS/SS), Fudge,
and also ... did the Chocolate Frog Card writers know?
