Date: 2012-08-08 07:16 pm (UTC)Yes dear readers there another scandal at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. This reporter has found out that Professor Horace Slughorn had a youthful indiscretion that up until now was kept totally hush hush by all who were aware. Its well known that Professor Slughorn, founder of the infamous Hogwarts Slug Club, has penchant for friending and inviting those that can further his cause of being well known. If you have a famous or connected relative you are surely guaranteed a spot in his club. So it would seem that Slughorn has used these connections to keep his little secret from seeing the light of day. Now dear reader what could this scandal be? This reporter has found out that Horace Slughorn was both married and divorced and while this is not normally cause for scandal it is when the person in question is only 17! Yes Professor Slughorn met and married another Hogwarts student (whose name has been omitted for anonymity), this woman has confirmed with documentation that she and Slughorn for married for all of two months, the summer before their seventh year. All parties seemed to realize the mistake before the two came back for their final year and the married was dissolved but why was this kept a secret and more to the point how was it kept? Honestly is this who you want teaching your children potions? I'll leave that up to you dear reader.
