No joke this just came on the radio and it's insanely perfect for a Student!Minerva ADMM songfic! It's "Don't Stand So Close to Me" by Police, it's like, a million years old and it goes a little something like this:
Young teacher, the subject Of schoolgirl fantasy She wants him so badly Knows what she wants to be Inside her there's longing This girls an open page Book marking - shes so close now This girl is half his age
Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me
Her friends are so jealous You know how bad girls get Sometimes its not so easy To be the teachers pet Temptation, frustration So bad it makes him cry Wet bus stop, shes waiting His car is warm and dry
Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me
Loose talk in the classroom To hurt they try and try Strong words in the staffroom The accusations fly Its no use, he sees her He starts to shake and cough Just like the old man in That book by Nabokov
Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand, don't stand so Don't stand so close to me
Now, read that and tell me that someone from Police was not equipped with psychic powers/a time machine and looked into the future, got into ADMM and went back and wrote this song. Just try. I dare you.

I listened to some clips of it on itunes...I like the one w/ just Sting. I don't like student!Minerva theories for ADMM, but this song is rather perfect for that.

I agree. Student Minerva and Albus stories creep me out. Besides, I don't think Albus would have an affair with a student. I like stories where they meet up later in the battle against Grindlewald or something like that.

I don't think he'd actually have an affair with her, I just think there was some mutual attraction and the WERE closer than just student/teacher, but that nothing actually happened between them. To all Min's friends dismay. ;D
Anyhow, that's why I thought this song was so fantabulous.
And I WILL read the odd Student!Min ADMM romance, but ONLY if she is at least 17 and in at least her seventh year.

Student!Minerva and Albus are fine with me, but nothing too... pedophile-ish. I like it more when they're friends. Or, what makes a plot really good, is when there's some hating, but then they fall madly in love, like, 50 years later... Sorry, am I way off-topic?

That works too, but not 50 years later. Earlier than that.

yeah, I love student minerva fics, so long as they don't cross the creepy line, which is complicated. like a friendship/cruch thing I can see at any age, but a relationship need to start later, but then again it can also be really interesting when she's younger, as long as neither acts on it till a bit older. ...well that made sense I think it comes down to the whole "good writer" thing we keep coming back to on the other ships thread...as lon as its well written, I can do it ETA I think I may be slightly skewed(sp?) because I have always had a thing for much older guys, so I could easily fall for an older teacher, and I see alot of min in me, so I translate it over

I really like Student!MinervaAlbus couplings. I don't know why ... I just do. But she seems like the kind of person who would do that. *don't kill me*

I agree with tabbyhearts. I like the Student!Minerva/Albus fics.
Mainly ones where they're both struggling with their feelings but nothing actually happens till a few years later (after she's graduated) though.
I agree that this song fits with them. And I also think Hands Clean by Alanis Morissette fits them aswell:
If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much
Ooh this could be messy But you don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime
We'll fast forward to a few years later And no one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this
You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me You're kind of my prot¨¦g¨¦ and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it
Ooh this could get messy But you don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime
We'll fast forward to a few years later And no one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this
what part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept? what part of your memory is selective and tends to forget? what with this distance it seems so obvious?
Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family We best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posse I wish I could tell the world cuz you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly I might want to marry you one day if you watch that weight and keep your firm body
Ooh this could be messy and Ooh I don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime

I just can't imagine Albus actually having a relationship with a student, I just think he'd keep his feelings under strict controll, even if he even felt that way about a student. So I tend to imagine them as being very close as student teacher, with Albus being like a mentor to Minerva, and then they get together a few years after Minerva has left Hogwarts.
I do love the idea though of Albus first falling for Minerva on the night of her graduation ball.

Hello this is my first post I would like to say I'm so happy I found this site you all are wonderful writers and I just love MMAD I do think the teacher student thing is icky I think a bond is fine but and thing ealse is just not right. I heard this song the other day and I was like "wow this totaly sounds like them." I'm not sure about the best freind with benifits part I can't really see that until they are togeather as a couple. any way here we go. Head over feet had no choice but to hear you You stated your case time and again I thought about it You treat me like I'm a princess I'm not used to liking that You ask how my day was You've already won me over in spite of me Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole You're so much braver than I gave you credit for That's not lip service You've already won me over in spite of me Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault You are the bearer of unconditional things You held your breath and the door for me Thanks for your patience You're the best listener that I've ever met You're my best friend Best friend with benefits What took me so long I've never felt this healthy before I've never wanted something rational I am aware now I am aware now You've already won me over in spite of me Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault You've already won me over in spite of me Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault

Hi, wellcome "Princess" - yes, the song you've cited sounds quite right (but I never heard that one...? who is it from?).

It's also an Alanis Morissette song off of her jagged littlr pill cd.

I'm gonna say Take That = Rule The World, just sounds so magical and reminds me of Dumbledore's eyes so idea of way looks to Minerva or what Minerva see's looking at Dumbledore and his twinkling eyes also fact lyric "Lighting up the sky tonight" i just picture them together in the great hall under the enchanted celling (at dinner possibly lol)

Rule the world from Stardust?? You know the line "If angels cry"? I always though the "if angels" part sounded like he was saying Yvaine... Okay, VERY off topic here
