I'm very happy with how Dumbledore is being portrayed here. In the original pitch, it was unknown how... Fanon Duumbly would be.

I mean, originally, we wanted to know what you wanted, and a lot of what you wanted was relatively unspoken at any point in time. You were pretty hands off tbh, so we had to do our best to fill in the blanks, and Alphabet was adamant that it was boring seeing Dumbledore be in some way a mess.

I agreed, and we got talking, and discovered that Dumbledore was just autistic, not stupid. And that if given the chance, and a better option, he would have rectified the issue immediately.

Which, while likely not canon, is our new headcanon. Expect more fics like this if people ask us for Dumbledore in a Harry Potter in the future. Unless they specifically ask for something different.

I like dumbledore here. No bashing, no cartoonish evil, just an old man who dropped the ball and is trying to make up for it.

My favorite take was one, can't remenber the fic name but it was comedy, where Dumbledore had legitimaly gone senile but since he had always acted weird the other adults didn't realize it. ;p
