A discussion about Dumbledore’s sexuality, and author’s intent vs. what’s on the page:
Boy #1: Just because she says he’s gay doesn’t mean he is.
Boy #2: Well, I hooked up with him last week, so, empirical evidence, you know.
Boy #3: He’s at least bi.
Boy #4: One time doesn’t count!
Girl #1: [whispering about Boy #4] He’s in theatre.
Girl #2: Oooh.
