TAG TEAM SPECIAL: DumbleRiggs vs Xaviclane

Started by Sadako of Girth2 pages

Nah. They're a dead pair of corpses, thanks to Xavier and McClane.

K.

You have no counter to that...?😛

No prep means Dumbledore won't be ready to apparate before Xavier's got a hold on him and Riggs.

Ha! 😛

K.

Are you..? I knew it! 😛

No, I countered, you ignored it, I dont have the energy to preach the gosepl to deaf ears.

Sadako may have. I didn't, I gave you a reason why Dumbledore couldn't instant apparate. So rather than trying to brush me off, what say we debate?

Then preach in common sense, and in the language of logic, and you will be heard.

I know the feeling...believe me, yet I extend you the effort every time.

Cause my argument holds water.

Apparition and Disapparition
Apparition is a magical form of teleportation, through which a witch or wizard can disappear ("Disapparate"😉 from one location and reappear ("Apparate"😉 in another. It is sometimes accompanied by a distinctive cracking or popping sound, though this is associated with ineptitude rather than success; the most skilled wizards can Apparate "so suddenly and silently" that they seem to have "popped out of the ground" (Dumbledore). The act is also accompanied by a very unpleasant squeezing sensation, as though being sent through a tight rubber tube, according to Harry.

A wizard or witch can use Side-Along Apparition to take others with them during Apparition. Dumbledore uses this on Harry several times, and notably, Harry uses Side-Along Apparition to take the weakened Dumbledore back from the seaside cave containing Voldemort's locket Horcrux. In addition, Dumbledore's phoenix, Fawkes, used Side-Along-Apparition to take Dumbledore with him when avoiding arrest from the Ministry. This suggests that phoenixes, like elves, can teleport anywhere, even in places with Anti-Apparition spells (this is also written in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"😉.

In the "Order of the Phoenix" film, Death Eaters and Order members Apparated and Disapparated in clouds of smoke. Death Eaters would appear and disappear in black smoke, Order members in white. In the movie, both sides also seemed to be able to "half-apparate" in which their bodies were made out of smoke, giving them the ability to fly. This is not canon to the books and probably just used for more cinematic, atmospheric purposes. Interestingly, both times Fred and George apparated and disapparated, they did it with a pop as in the books.

And again, if Dumbledore and Riggs are not prepared for an encounter with Xavier and McClane, Dumbledore does not have good enough reaction time, nor will he even have the opportunity, to apparate before Xavier and Riggs are held.

Held.

Mindraped.

Shot repeatedly.
