“With all due respect mr Moody your camaraderie was never requested. You will do your job as ordered and I will do mine”
Cornelius was exhausted, he had been up all night writing Dumbledore asking for advice. How to rebuilt faith in the Ministry, how to begin mending the broken war damaged community he had been elected to lead into an era of peace. “Your loyalty to mr Crouch is touching but unless if you have official business to state I must ask for your debriefing-”
Antagonizing one of the ministry’s most infamous aurors would be stupid, no, he would call on the sense of duty Moody believed on so much to move him along and out of his office all too aware that like many others he would much rather have Crouch in office than him. Aurors- always most loyal to their own kind.
“Offer immunity to those that can lead to ending the last remaining cells of you-know-who’s loyalists-”
He had half a mind to tell the new minister of magic where to shove his ‘due respect’ but Alastor was hardly the type of man that disrespected authority, even if such authority had no business being such. “I was merely advising you that releasing suspects under investigation before we have interrogated them might lead to the office thinking you are being far too lenient sir.” Alastor has to bite his tongue, twice in one conversation had to be a new record, and not give him a piece of his mind for letting Lucius Malfoy walk out of his charges as if nothing happened.
“Immunity. And what pray tell do I tell the victims? Sir, I understand you have to usher in prosperity but sweeping the war under the carpet might not gain you a vote of confidence from the people still hurting their loss.”
Alastor himself thought of the Longbottoms,two people he had made the mistake of getting to know well, mistake for now he was grieving their loss in his own little way. What was he suppose to say to their son.

Damn Dumbledore, his stupid bleeding heart and visions of a peaceful existence. Alastor was an auror, he belonged in his office making sure that people like Dumbledore and his school got to sleep safe at night not here in a classroom of youths. Merlin, he could not even remember ever looking that young, specially lately when every winter made his bones ache. Dark forces were at play and here he was staring at youths that could barely comprehend how their way of life was threatened. Perhaps that’s why his old friend asked him to teach Defence against the dark arts, to give them one shot in hell to survive this war.
“Well that’s a mouthful and a half-” Alastor merely barked as the younger man politely introduced himself when taking a seat next to him as normal social people did when joining someone. There were days were Alastor was as unhinged as they came..luckily today his mental clarity was slightly better than that and he realized he was being harsh to the substitute professor. “Alastor-” he gruffly introduced himself and still stared at the newpaper and it’s stupid propaganda of trying to fool the masses that things were not as bad as they were.
“Are you one of them-?” Alastor barked his inquiry “One of those people that believe deceiving the populus into believing they’re safe is our only hope of surviving this war?”

“Think of your parents, your friends. That boy and or girl that never notices you. Your future children. Each and single one of them a pressure point someone could and probably given a chance WOULD use to hurt you. Witches and wizards with no mercy, no remorse. That will use any means necessary to achieve their goal walk among us every day. In this class I will teach you how to not only defend yourself but to defend others. The very few that will passmight just have a shot at surviving. I am professor Moody, I will not be your friend nor hold your hand or braid your hair. If you want an easy class I suggest you pack your little bag and naff off, the rest that stay, welcome to the harsh real world.” he barked to the classroom and had to bite his tongue not to mention that at least four of his students had parents he personally arrested.
Oh yes, he was all too aware that the timid looking young man’s father was as scummy a dark wizard as they came and worse one that had manipulated the law Alastor so ruthlessly defended to evade punishment. “You-” he pointed to Corvus. “How does one perform the incantation for a protective charm” he barked at the young man and stomped his way to his desk.

He felt old, every remaining bone in his body ached everytime the weather changed and even these bloody stairs were a nuisance. No, Alastor was all too aware of what he was, an old man and yet here he stood in the small classroom full of 17 year old faces. Merlin’s beard they looked like children..he couldn’t even remember ever looking that youthful. The only reason he even agreed to this was it gave him pause from the Ministry,he wanted to retire he was going to retire and at least half those Ministry hampy bambi Ministry idiots were miles away from him.

“You with the ridiculous hair- yes you” he pointed at Nymphadora pinning both his real and artificial eye on her stomping his way to her desk carrying himself like the broken yet still intimidating auror that he was almost daring her to flinch,to see if her bold as brash hair was a statement of a strong character or just another teenage girl wanting the whole world to look at her. “Have you ever dueled before?” he barked at her standing right in front of her desk. “Pick a friend-” Alastor demanded off her and waited both for her reaction and her choice.

Okay I am in the mood to do the only divergent verse I haven’t used yet professor Moody. In this verse I want to explore what it would be like if the actual Alastor Moody did teach (no matter what era your muse is I will adapt him to fit your canon years, of course colleagues and such are also welcome.) Like /reblog for a starter.

It hadn’t been easy to get rid of her tail and it took a very steady pulse (which she lacked) and a clear head to cast the handful of spells needed to get away from the dead eaters that had gotten a hold of her and made sure they wouldn’t remember who she was or that they had, in fact, gotten her.
She had also managed to recover a handful of intel that would be crucial for their next steps in defeating the Dark Lord and hoped against hope that she could make it in one piece to the base of operations. It wasn’t easy, she was exhausted and bruised and shaken to the core from the curses they had used on her but even though she made most of the way in her cat form, she shifted one block away and walked in around midnight.
She was still shocked but kept a straight face, wanting to bury her face against Alastor’s chest and cry as long as she needed. But she couldn’t; she had to be strong and be the soldier she was–or that he believed she was.
After taking a shower and drinking a large cup of chocolate laced with some alcoholic beverage Albus threw in she sat down, trying to order her thoughts and not to cry before heading back out for the debriefing but Alastor walked in before she could.
Looking up at him she pursed her lips together and took several deep breaths. She really wanted to say ‘yes’ and be strong but all she could do was shake her head and start sobbing, hiding her face in her hands.
Consoling wasn’t his forte. Even when delivering the worst news all he could be was a stoic figure, a projection of strength for the victims to anchor on and nothing more. You either close yourself off or feel everything and yet she was not just another soldier. She was...for the lack of better term the only person he held affection for and to see her so vulnerable it made him seethe with righteous anger as well as...his heart crumbled at her state a little.
“You will endure. That I promise you” Words softly spoken from such a gruff voice. Hands all too familiar with inflicting pain gently took her in his embrace and rubbed her back to soothe her. Alastor rested his chin on top of her head and said nothing. A man of few words choosing to let actions speak for themselves. He let her cry engulfed in strong but battle scarred arms pressed against his chest where his steady heart beat only for her.
Let her cry for as long as she needed to, let her tether herself to a man that was all too familiar with being a shield that would gladly shield her from their comrades tonight as well. She earned that right, to be left alone and cared for.
“I’m here...at whatever capacity and for however long you need me Minnie” he speaks in a whisper and pets the back of her head. “Find solace that you endured. You returned back and I will make sure they won’t.” Alastor Moody was a feared figure on the days where he served justice,foes chose death over being captured by him, Merlin show mercy to those who would face him on the side of wrath.
“I want you to stay the night at mine. So I can make sure you are safe my love.”

Alastor could count the people he trusted on one hand and have fingers spare.Stoic and gruff he had made a name for himself rather quickly in the Auror’s office. He considered Alice...trust worthy and a comrade. Both her and her husband hand quickly proven themselves capable and thus here the two Order members were capturing what would hopefully be their next big lead. “Got him. Stun him” Alastor grunted all but chocking the life out of a death eater in his tight grip waiting for his associate to stun him and cuff him. It would be the first time Alice would witness an interrogation performed by him, there was a reason why his foes chose death over being captured by him.
“Take him you know where-, I’ll make sure you’re not followed.”

Nothing betrayed his inner turmoil part from a slightly too clenched jaw.
Minnie should have reported in and debriefed on her covert op two days ago and yet not a peep was head. Nothing. Some said to go trace her steps and gained only barks of disapproval from the auror. Minnie was in too deep and if they went looking for her she could end up in even more danger. She knew the risks, she was all on her own and that was how it was going to be. He hated this feeling of dread and even more so for caring enough to worry about her fate, she was a good fighter she deserved better than to be worried over or to be thought as someone that needed rescuing.
It would be midnight before finally Minerva had returned to the Order’s headquarters looking worse for wear, clearly she had to fight her way out to bring them the so needed information they required. “You done well soldier-” Alastor with his usual gruff voice praised her return and would offer no other sentiment in public. He let her get on with things, wash herself off and get herself together for the next two hours.
Alastor knocked on her door and closed it behind him propping himself against the door to keep it shut. “Are you alright-” he asked with concern on his voice.
“Come with me a moment-”
The room was buzzing with far too many people and as such Alastor sought to remove Ophelia from onlookers thus finding a more secluded room. He had been given his orders, the warrant had been signed and stamped and while it would prove a better test to not announce it to her in private, the number of people Alastor trusted could be counted on one finger and Ophelia deserved better than to have her loyalty questioned for the choices her sister made.
“I thought it would be best if you found out from me first than in a room full of our colleagues” he announced as to why he wanted to be alone with her and handed her the warrant for her sister’s arrest. Dead or alive it did not matter to the Ministry as long as a sentence was dealt. “You deserve better than to have your loyalty questioned for choices your sister made.So I am choosing to have faith in your convictions . We have a lead of where she is, I am giving you a choice to be part of apprehending her or chose that it’s best left to someone else. Conflict of interest or not you have proven yourself a good Auror so I shan’t make the decision for you”
