minerva mcgonagall deciding not to go into retirement after seeing james sirius isn’t quite as bad as either of his namesakes or his father and is silently relieved because sure, he does some pranks but he also really loves transfiguration and adores learning and tends not to disrupt class. and she figures albus and lily luna can’t possible be worse. and she’s right about albus for the most part, the kid is quiet, if with a tendency to wander the castle after hours
but lily luna
oh god
minerva thought she was safe. but lily luna potter is the biggest menace she has ever seen in the smallest body. lily aces her classes and still manages to have at least three running pranks per school day. lily, backed by her pseudo maurauders molly and lucy weasley as well as the combined genius of the scamander twins. lily who wins the maurauders map from her brother within the first week of first year using a very cleverly planned game of exploding snap and some innovative taunting to get james to bet the map in the first place.
lily luna who is somehow her grandfather and her mother and her uncles fred and george all combined into one, with the evil genius and ambition worthy of a slytherin
minerva survives a few months before she decides to call it a day and leave asap. the scamander twins are amazed that lily calculated that retirement almost to the day
