My dear fellow shipmates,
I was rereading HBP and went to mugglenet today and a [glow=red,2,300]few interesting[/glow] things I had not paid full attention too came to my mind.
AD/MM!
On a more canon note: McGonagall announced in the Head's office that Dumbledore's wishes were to be buried on the grounds. This shows Dumbledore was fully aware that he would die; he chose to have this conversation with her. One may argue that she was Deputy Headmistress, this would be her job. No... I irascibly disagree. He could have left that detail to the gubernatorial robes in charge of running the school, but instead he chose a friend. By her tone and anxiety, I believe Minerva was fully prepared to carry out this function, but she was definitely not ready to lose her friend.
( I found this on mugglenet)
You all noticed his absense I am sure...but I do not think he was all the time hunting for horuxes, no I think that he was spending time with the ones he Loved.
He groomed McGonagall to take care of his effects after he died. that was what he did, and has done for years I suspect.
"How he loved McGonagall! " (straight from mugglenet ladies)
"- after 40 years of close professional and Order ties, their friendship would have been granite-solid."
