One of the things I love the most about Alastor is that he refuses to stay down.
So many people, both in and out of universe, want to crush his spirit, want to see him ‘humbled’ but you can’t humble someone who refuses to lay down and just take it.
No. Alastor bites back.
He fights back.
And if he loses?
He regroups. He plans. He fights again. And he prevails.
Even when he’s at a clear disadvantage,
even when he’s weakened and injured,
even when he’s cornered,
even when he’s humiliated and jeered at,
even when he’s at his lowest point,
He fights back.
He keeps getting up.
And when he triumphs?
It’s that much sweeter, because his victory is earned.
